STRONG ACTION URGED

LEIPZIG INCIDENT Goebbels’ Inflammation Speech Berlin, .lune 22. An inflammatory declaration of Germany’s attitude on the subject ot the Leipzig incident was made by Dr. Goebbek’ when addressing 130,000 Nazis at ithe Olympic stadium. “Germany will not be satisfied by the incident being referred from one committee to another in it<he manner of the League of Nations and a letter being sent to Valencia after three months in such terms as ‘You naughty,' naughty Bolsheviks.; you know such things are not done,’ ” he said. “Germany does not want war but peace, which will best be served by strong action. We found in our domestic policy that there are people with whom one can reason only after knocking out their teeth.” The Government’s report on the “Spanish Bolshevik submarine attack on the Leipzig,,” states that a diver’s examination of the Leipzig’s hull disclosed scratches and a six-inch dent. The vessel changed her course after noticing the torpedo, thereby grazing either the torpedo or the submarine from which it was fired. The presence of the torpedo was also ascertained by air bubbles and a sound detector. Stokers and engineers.' heard a metallic impact on the hull when the Leipzig passed over the locality from which the torpedo was apparently launched. Scraping noises followed.

Told that smoking shortened. life, Ulysses Grant, the famous. American General, said he didn’t care if .it did. “Looking back,” he said, “at the com. tort which smoking has given me I’ll say that even it Inknow tobacco was shortening my days 1 wouldn't give it up.” Smoking shortens life’- -tell it to the Marines! Good tobacco never yet shortened life. It's more likely to prolong it. Brands foul with nicotine mpy undermine the health, and often do, for nicotine is deadly. But you run no risk if you smoke “toasted.” The five famous brands, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bull’shead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, 1 Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold are all subject to- the manufacturers’ own toasting process and emerge from it practically free from nicotine. “There’s no ’•biitet’ left] in toasted. And it possesses a flavour and aroma you'll look for in vain in other tobaccos 1 . The brands enumerated are the- world’s purest. They ' are unique-. No matter which tobac- | co you’re accustomed to smoke, once j you change pv.er to toasted it will be ! tor life.
