ISSUES WARNING TO
PANIC MAKERS

In speech at the banquet of
the Southern society of New York
Tuesday night, Woodrow Wilson
declared he had heard sinister pre-
dictions Of what would follow if
the Democratic party put into
effect changes in economic policy.
Wilson held up a warning finger
to any man who might deliberately
start panic in the United States
in order to show that intended leg
islative policies were wrong.
The president-elect first distin-
guished in his speech between
natural" and unnatural" panics.
He said that IN many cases panic
had come naturally because of a
mental disturbance of people with
reference to loans and money gen.
orally.
"But the machinery is in exist
ence," he said, by which the thing
can be deliberately done, Frankly,
| don't think there is any man liv-
ing who dares use the machinery
for that purpose. If he does, ]
promise him, not for myself, but
for my fellow countrymen, gibbet
as high as Haman's." The COVER
nor added that he meant no literal
gibbet, "for that is not painful y
but he said it would be a gibbet of
public disgrace which will live as
long as the members of that mans
family survive
America with her eyes open
isn't going to let panic happen
the governor continued, but |
speak as if | expected-as if !
feared it. | do not. | am afraid
of nothing"

every kind of an American ship,
coastwise or otherwise, would go
through the canal free, and our
European friends who didn't pay
for the canal, would be permitted
to support it and keep it going by
paying a good price for its use.
However, this country is rich
enough to be good natured. We

soon be opened. Great Britain

be made easier for them-thanks
to us.
And we actually put them on a
par with our own vessels. The
right of coastwise American ships
to 60 through free does not mean
any competition at all with Eng

nation to engage in coastwise trade

Legner and Johnson went away grinning

CANNIBALISM IN AFRICA.

LONDON, November "a 1912.
Cannibalism has been discovered by
government officials in Sierra Leone, on

persons have been arrested. Another 100,

Among this large number. it is added,
seven paramount chiefs are included.

AIM TO ELIMINATE WEEDS.
Forage Plant Seed Dealers Cited by
Agricultural Department.

Forage plant seed dealers will be given
hearing at the Department of Agricul-
ture December 10 to show reason why the
Secretary of Agriculture should not pro-
hibit the importation of forage plant
seeds adulterated with weed seed This
has been one of the serious problems of
farmers in this country for some years
because some foreign countries. knowing
there was no law to prevent it, We're in
the habit of dumping any old sort of weed
seed on the American market and getting
the price of good forage seed for it. The
Secretary of Agriculture now proposes to
absolutely prohibit the Importation of al
falfa. Kentucky blue grass, Canadian blue
grass, clover, meadow fescue and several
other forage plants when adulterated with
more than per cent by weight of weed
seed
Some varieties of fodder and other seeds
are especially imported to this country
for no other purpose than as cheap adul-
terants for forage plant seeds. and it is
possible that the importation of such
seeds may be prohibited altogether.

The record of the case disclosed the
fact that the Milwaukee road eXacts a
charge of one-fourth of a cent a bushel
for the elevation Of grain from the owner
and a like sum from the eastern rail-
ways for the transfer of the same grain.
The case was instituted by milwaukee,

PARIS, November 20, 1872
A great increase in the strength of the
French aerial fleet is to be made next
year. a sum of S5.c00G0O having been set
aside for this purpose, as compared with
$4,OOo0cO the present year. 1t has not
been the practice of the French military
authorities to make spectacular exhibit
tons of their progress in aerial develop
ment, but enormous advances have, never
theless, been made.
The establishment now provided for
comprises no fewer than twenty drigibles
and 3e2 aeroplanes. OF the latter, 342
scouting craft will be divided into thirty
eight escadrillos, each consisting of eight
aeroplanes, with one reserve, or

Twenty-seven of the squadrons will be

JEWS MIGHT CONTROL
THE CITY Of SAL0N|K|
Suggested That Municipality
Be Made Independent
and Free Port.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
LONDON, November 90. 1912
Widespread interest has been aroused
by the suggestion that in the redistribu-
ton of the Balkans Saloniki might well
become a free municipality under inter
national protection. and free port. The
majority of the inhabitants are Jews
and their management would be an ex-
pertinent of remarkable interest. Where
everything is to be settled upon basis of
race, the same principle might we'll de-
eide the government of the great Medi-
terranean port.
Already a movement has been mooted
in influential quarters for taking such
steps as may be necessary for carrying
this suggestion into effect.
Israel Zangwill said the scheme ap-
pealed to him immensely.
Capability of Citizens.
''Saloniki is perhaps the one town in
the world where the Jews are the largest
single racial factor he said eff the
Jews of Saloniki can produce men like
Djavid Bey to sit in tn cabinet of Tur-
key they may surely be expected to pro-
duce others thoroughly capable of gov
erning their own affairs.
Under what conditions" Mr. Fang
will was asked, SHOULD the experiment
be made?''
''Saloniki." he replied, should be pre-
pared to saddle herself with a share of
the Turkish debt. This share would
naturally be large in proportion to it's
commercial Importance. l think too,
the leading Jews of Europe should be
asked to make loan to the allies
This money should be spent in repro
ductive works in MacedOnia-wOrkS such
as railways, port works and irrigation
in order to develop its resources espe-
cially after the destruction of the war.
Thus all the races in Macedonia would
benefit. while all the Jews throughout
the world would have their dignity en-
HANGED by this rise in Jewish status.
The first step would be absolute re-
ligious freedom and civil equality. The
next step should be the proclamation of
free trade, the open door. and equal COM
mercial opportunities for all nations. Sa-
loniki should be free port.
