An anonymous letter, however, had warned Lord Monteagle of the Impending disas ter and Guy Fawkes was seized in the act. He was carried at once into the presence of King James, who air though it was 1 o'clock in the morning, got 'up to question him. After being tortured in the Tow er of London, Faw&es signed a confession of sullt in. a Taint and trembling hand ' and was hanged. with other plotters opposite par liament House. The house, in- which Fawkes lived and -where the Gunpowder Plot was originated still stands in London. Hundreds of bonfire Societies perpetuate the memory of Guy Fawkes capture and exe cution.

X i f That was the way an aged Jap anese ' described the" ill-fater : fishing- smack, Ryo Tel. as he viewed the vessel tied up here after drift ing helplessly for 11 months pn the North Pacific while her. crew of 12 starved, sickened and died. Close up under the bulwarks. somewhat damaged In bringing the safe anchorage- in the sound, appear the Ieyes" ' which adomf so many! of. the-tanks and sampan of the Orient. : ' ; . . AlL'through the Yellow and Jap an eeas and along the China coast. painted eyee look' out on the path ways of the sea. Chinese and Jap anese sailormen have believed for untold generations that ships must have vision. "No can see, no can gd,H theyl sanr - .. . v So when the Ryo Yei - Mara meaning good, prosperous ship- was built by the sea-faring folk of the Japanese coastal villages of Misaki. she was given a pair of eyes, efen though her hull, engine, rigging and general equipment were the most modern her bulld-H ers could produce. . - i . The little vessel about 85 feet long, left MIsaki harbor on a fish- Ins cruise early In December, 1926. All went well for a week, then the crank shaft broke. Misfortune fol lowed misfortune, until the last two of the 12 fishermen met death in the tiny dark cabin some time in May. A diary telling of the des pair and death which followed the displeasure of Konpira, Japanese sailors' god, was found in the cab in. Month ofter the Ryo Yei set sail for the tuna banks northwest of . Japan, the Amerlran Mail Line freighter Margaret Dollar stettted her rolling in the trough . of the waves off Cape Flattery, and tow ed her into Puget Sound. As if eomewhat ashamed of the ancient superstition, the Japanese builders of the Ryo Yei made the vessel's eyes resemble hawse- plates and only cloee examination reveals that the time-honored cus tom was adhered to.

Dr. Stresemann turned to M. Briand and said. "Had we had thla in 114 the.; war might have been averted." : We bad before the war ererywhere machinery j. for. quick war, and no machinery for quick peace. Now, In the League, we have machinery for quick peace. : ITwo questions of great Import, which, are . embodied in the final statement issued by-, the confer ence, received much : attention. One ' was what constitutes an ag gressor nation. No nation ' ever considers itself an aggressor. All wars to . all . nations are wars of defense. How shall .we get around this v point? As Professor Shot- lag a war of defense which Is at tacked by another nation, alter it has signified its willingness to take Its case to court. j '"".The other suggestion which at tracted much attention was ' that proposed by Mr. Steed in his re ally great address at the banquet --namely, that if f the United Statea would not go into the League of Nations it at least make an official pronouncement to the effect that If any nation in the League refused - to -be bound by its .pledges to the League to submit its dispute to peacable ad justment and went to war, there by - becoming, by the definition given above,' the : United" : States would not consider itselt bound by anyr law ot J neutrality, but would jefaw aid and comfort In any way to the aggressor nation, or to put it in the language adopt ed by the St. Louis Conference: We believe that in the event of war among other nations the United States, while remaining neutral., should take steps to pre- comfort to the aggressor nation. There should be a solemn pro nouncement upon the part of our government proclaiming it to be a. principle of American policy that when in the Judgment ot our government the case arises of a nation going, to war In violation of its previously given pledge to take Its disputes to some tribunal ot peaceful settlement or to in ternational conference, we shall not insist upon the continuance of our rights of trade , with the covenant-breaking state. . Mr. Steed said this would give great comfort to Europe, would dissipate much of their fear, add to their sense of security and con vince Europe of the intentions of the United States to stand with them for Justice and for the peace of the world. Mr. Steed said that Europe felt sure the United Statea would always pursue this course but that an official statement to itiit nfftMit wonld wreatlv enheart- en all countries In the League sin cerely striving to outlaw war and gested areas, particularly outside most-Impressive moments of the well 'puts it, that nation la fight- ventour neutrality giving aid or secure permanent peace.
