Double Need, Double Aid.

There is much good counsel in the statement put
forth by representatives of ten prominent charitable
organizations. in which they urge the public TO
support the Red Cross work for Europe, but with
ont neglectng the needs of your neighbofs III New
York City" Every indication is given that TINS
winter will be harder for the poor than was last
winter. Already it is estimated that because of
business conditions due to President Wilson's s
psychological panic" and the wars disturbances,
there are about 100000 unemployed in this city.
AS outdoor Jobs have to be abandoned this number
will increase. The municipal and federal author
ties are making preparations to meet the emergency
now They will have to have much aid from the
charitable and phanthrOpc societies.
Europes need is great and America should do
her part in relieving the suffering Gere. Never
theess this aid should not be given at the expense
Of the sufferers here Difficulty has been expe-
rienced in collecting money for local charities be
cause contributions have been diverted to the Euro
pean funds This is time to divert contributions
from Americas needy to Europes. What is wanted
is broader generosity from all who can CON

ENGLAND'S BROKEN TREATIES
A Reader Presents a Lengthy lndict-
ment.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Not because Scott Robinson
on the 11th inst. cried out in The Trib-
une for facts and dates which, had he
really desired them, he'd easily find
in books on treaties, but because
those that | here set forth are from
treaties of great importance, and
and therefore convincing as evidence
against the common British claims of
governmental honor, | append: Treaty
of Peace, 1888; Article VII violated
by the British carrying away 5000
negroes; by melting Indians to renewed
depredations, and by not withdrawing
British troops as stipulated Treaty of
1894 (Which was the result of Washing
toms final attempt at truly peaceable
adjustments), violated in respect of
American property rights, including
negroes. The Treaty of Ghent, 1915,
violated in the same way; referred to
the Emperor of Russia as arbiter
whose decision resulted in Great Brit
ain agreeing to pay the United States
S1,204,960 in lieu of and in full salts
faction for all claims involved"
TO give the devil his due. it is but
fair to allow that the real injury in
ficted on those whom England worsts
by treaty stipulations are most often
done brown not by breaking treaties so
much as by getting jokers into them
adroit stipulatiOns which involve future
contingencies that are made 20 entail
apparent obligations. This game has
always been played by Britain on
America more or less successfully. Its
latest instance was seen in the Panama
Canal tolls matter, where, in the first
instance, England had no rights of
jurisdiction at all because she never
substantiated dominion over Nicaragua
and therefore possessed no territorial
rights whereon to base treaty making
power respecting any part of Central
America.)
February Is, 1884 Blue Book C. 39i7,
page 43), Lord Derby sends to the Boer
deputation at the London Convention a
recantation of British (mOot) suzer-
ainty President Kruger, in his address
TO the Raad on his return, announced
the cancellation of suzerainty as the
chief fruit OF the Boer mission. The
British government abstained from
mentioning suZerainty over the Trans
yaal and Free Republic until Mr.. Cham
berlain's dispatch of 1897, when, with
out preamble, he, as Colonial Secretary.
declared suZeTainty in direct defiance of
the London Convection, asserting il to
be such as gave Great Britain the
fright to make whatsoever demands she
chose" The demands made resulted in
the Boer war. The Boer war resulted
in nothing good for good humanity,
but only insufferably increased the pos
sibilities for inferior humanity, british
British outlanders to encroach on the
God-fearing Dutch who had made
homes for themselves out of African
wildernesses homes TO which none but
themselves had any natural, moral or
legal right whatsoever.

THE GERMAN EMBASSY DENIES
No War Material or Anything Else Be
ing Bought Here, It Is Asserted.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Referring to your article of the
23d inst, in which you state that Ger
many is making large purchases in the
United States, mostly of foodstutts'
cotton and ammunition, | ask you to
kindly publish in your paper a most
emphatic denial of all such reports.
Germany is not buying any war ma
terial in this country, especially not
ammunition.
In the first place, Germany produces
or manufactures everything needed in
modern warfare in her own country;
large supplies of cotton, wool, etc, have
been seized in Antwerp, TOurcoing, 'Rou-
baix and LODI, and, moreover, every
body ought to know by this time that
all shipping facilities to Germany nave
been stopped completely. PAPEN,

THE PRICE OF EGGS
Only the Hens Responsible for High
Figures, Says an Expert.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: As reader for many years of
your paper and a distinct admirer of
its policy, editorially and from the
news standpoint, | have read with re-
gret your editorial of this morning en-
titled Break the Egg Trust"
| am the owner of over thirty thou
sand chickens. The productivity of the
hens varies very considerably during
the year-the highest in the spring and
the lowest at this season. A flock in
the spring will average from 80 TO 10
eggs for 100 layers each day, and at
this time of year even the best tended
flocks will lay but about one-tenth of
that number. For this reason eggs
naturally rise in price, beginning short
ly after July A. This rise in price is
due not TO trust manipulation but to
the gradual decline in the productivity
of the hens-that is, in the number of
eggs laid
The prices at present quoted for eggs
of any and all descriptions cold stor-
age eggs excepted do not represent
nearly the cost of producing those eggs
in feed alone. This being the case, it
will be easily apparent to any fair
minded person that it does not take a
trust to rig prices. 1t may be of inter-
est to your readers to know that it
costs Sc cents per day in food alone to
care for hundred chickens. The fig
ures represent an average covering
over thirty thousand birds fed, and the
supplies are purchased at wholesale
prices. With an egg yield not exceed
ing seven or eight eggs a day, a
schOolboy can compute that the eggs
were costing 30 cents a dozen to raise,
and this does not take into account
labor or investment.
The wholesale markets highest quo
tation on the freshest kind of fancy
new laid eggs is stated in your own
issue of to-day to be 50 cents, and
many grades of fresh eggs are quoted
at from 33 cents to 38 cents wholesale.
Storage eggs are quoted in the neigh
borhood of 20 cents, and that price is
not sufficient TO represent any profit
to spectators when the original price
at which the eggs entered storage and
the storage charges are taken into con-
sideration.
My purpose in writing this protest is
not in any way 10 uphold the packers
or an egg trust, If such exists. Nv let
ter was called forth by an expression
in your editorial speaking about the
annual jumps in prices" intimating
that these Jumps were caused by the
rigging Of the market by trust. Per-
nit me TO inform. you as poultry
raiser of long experience and large
operations that the only Jumps in
prices are due TO the decreasing egg

commensurate with the real scarcity Of

Race Snicide and the Remedy.

y DR.. DORA MARTIN or JEFFERSON CITY,
It's a disgrace to our American manhood
That the insane asylums are TANNED
That there's no room for the feebe-minded
And our pcnitentiaries are crammed;
That our nation is going down
Under NERVES and blood poison fast
And only clean men can redeem it
And make our nation last.
We didn't ask TO come into the world.
But honest we'd like TO make good,
And If many Of us had half chance
We really believe that we could.
If each church had clean life center
With Clean Life meetings you own,
II would save many heartaches and criminals
And many a happier home.
1t is mighty hard to reform folks
or what they have done, undo.

While prevention is easy TO do.
