Italy neutral on the spot (TIME, Sept. 11) is the most stupid, idiotic and false statement of the Italian Strength, Italy alone is able to beat to a pulp both France and England; 8 millions of the best soldiers in the world, armed with the best and most modern weapons ever been dreamed, guided by expert and experienced commanders, are more than a match for Marianne and John Bull. Italy is neutral because Germany alone is more than able to administer to the two thieves of Versailles the defeat of their histories. . . . You, Mr. Editor, are a low down scoundrel...
...Chicago corporation lawyer, Fearing got his literary start as winner of a $50 poetry prize at the University of Wisconsin, where he once went into bankruptcy and appointed a classmate as receiver.

Gritting his teeth, he pulled out his penknife, carefully cut off his foot, twisted his sweater around the stump to stop the bleeding...
When a carload of logs goes through a pulp mill, half of it (the fiber) comes out as pulp (for paper). The rest comes out as a waste sulphite liquor,* a sirupy fluid. To U. S. paper mills this waste was as much a nuisance as used razor blades to ordinary citizens. Poured into rivers at the rate of 3,000,000 tons a year, it absorbed the free oxygen in the water, impairing fishing and polluting streams...
