GERMANS SAY
BERLIN NEWSPAPERS BLAME
AMERICA FOR ARTIFICIAL
STANDARD OF MORALS.
Says the SiaeI Murder Could Only
Have Occurred in an Atmosphere
Peculiar to America.

BERLIN, June 26.-The newspapers
here describe the murder of Elsie
Sigel in New York as a tragedy which
could have been enacted only in re-
Ngiosexual atmosphere peculiar to
America. Says one newspaper;
'Tf the scandals that involved Prince
Philip zu Gutenberg and the knights
of the Round Table were characters
tie of Germany, it can be said with
equal truth that the tragedies arising
out of this weird and unhealthy mix
ture of religious passion and sexual
passion are characteristic of America y
Germany" it adds, ''can learn a
lesson from decadents on the other
side of the Atlantie-not to permit
pietists to be too prominent in lead
ing social usage; not to set up Who'll
ly artificial standard of morality"
A brilliant evening newspaper Of
Berlin maintains, apropos of the 81
gel murder, that religious ardor and
sexual passion are bound deeply and
abidingly. Their unity is sometimes
celebrated secretly with mystic rites;
sometimes breaks out openly in orgies
like those celebrated by devotees Of
strange sects in America. Russia and
elsewhere.
The Berliner Zeitung Mittag adds
Conventional morality is strung
to so high a pitch in America that he
or she who renounces it often degen'
crates to religious practices unhealthy
in character.
America is full of such perversi
ties-fuller than Germany, because
traditional morality is more stringent
ly exercised there than in Germany
We hope this murder will open the
eyes of advanced New Workers to the
fact that the rule of the too truly good
is harmful"

DES MONIES, June 26.-W. j. Pix
ington. OF Des Moines, editor of the
Merchants Trade Journal, has taken
absolute charge of every business
house in Dexter, Iowa, a town of 500,
for seven months for the purpose of
proving that city methods will bring
prosperity to the merchant in a coun
try town. Mr.. Pilkington has placed
the town in the hands of Guy Pogus,
who is personally conducting every
business from the bank to the lumber
yard.
At the end of seven months he de-
clares the profits will be doubled,
trade will be attraSted to Dexter from
other points and the city will be met

city council are merchants who have
placed their business in Pilkington's
hands, the latter is also controlling
municipal government and has clean
ed streets and adopted many new Or
-dinances. Mr.. Pinkington believes in
advertising, with the result that the
Dexter paper has more advertisements
than the editor ever had before. The
remarkable experiment is attracting
attention of business men all over the
Middle West.
