...French, American, British and German authorities have proclaimed as a lie that paragraph in the Treaty of Versailles which holds Germany alone responsible for the War." Thus opened the preamble to a document signed last week by 1,000,000 Germans. It is a petition requesting Foreign Minister Gustav Stresemann to bend every effort toward securing the establishment of an international tribunal to adjudicate War guilt...
...surveyed. "Too many states," reads the report, "in pursuit of false ideals of national interest, have imperilled their own welfare and lost sight of the common interests of the world, by basing their commercial relations on the economic folly which treats all trading as a form of war."

This dye is not a secret in spite of its name; it was discovered by Adams and Haller at the color laboratory of the Bureau of Chemistry in 1919 and is made in our laboratories by Dr. H. T. Clarke. After many attempts we have succeeded in using it for sensitizing film...
