FOES Of JEWS
-PADEREWSK|
"Story That Gave Money to an
Anti-Semitic Newspaper Is
False" Says Pianist.

NPASO ROBLES, Jan. 31.-Driven
TO the brink of nervous prostration by
threatening black hand letters and a
misinterpretation of his position to-
ward the Jewish race, Paderewski,
the world famous pianist. to-day told
how his career had been endangered
and why threats have been made
against his life.
Paderewski granted the interview
because he wished to correct a mis-
representation of his feeling toward
the great Jewish race. He stated that
publicity through the Hearst publica-
tons would probably put an effectual
stop to the threatening letters and at
the same time let the Jewish people
know that he holds no malice toward
them. He believes that his friends
among the Jews have known his real
feeling toward their race. 1t is to
those who have not known him that
the great musician wants to explain
From Paderewski's interview 1t
appears that he has been widely
charged with being a leader OF an
antiSemitic movement and, specifi-
cally, Of giving financial support to
an anti-Jewish publication in Poland.
To these charges Paderewski replies:
Ffrst-That he is rbt and never
will be leader or member of any
movement directed against the Jews
Second-That he has never given
financial support to any publication
anti-Semitic in Poland.
In addition to these denials the
musician says that he admires the
genius of the Jewish race, and that
- 1t f,,t1 l.
He believes, however, that the 200
threatening letters he has received in
the last eighteen months have been
written by men who have been mis-
led concerning his opinions of the
Semitic race. With equal conviction
he believes that he will receive no
more anonymous letters when his
denial is as widely read as the charges
against him have been.
1T was in Switzerland about thir-
teen months ago" said Paderewski.
that received the first of the anony
r7ous letters. Then for the first time I
learned that ii newspaper, Diva Cos
- had been started in Poland. Its
rnrpose, ! learned later. was to pro-
mote commercial solidaritS among my
people. The great influx of immi-
grants had endangered the prosperity
of the natives of Poland. and the
newspaper had been started to in
spire courage in the Poles who band
ed together in a movement to improve
their condition.
But I was falsely charged in the
letters with having aided the paper.
The charge was untrue, and this wor-
1ied me greatly. l rested for some

out of my mind.

to Scene of Disorder.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-Follow-
ing the charge by Senator Lane that

tored' its report on the Lane resolu-
ton for an investigation of alleged
steel trust rebates. the Senate became
stirred up like hive OF angry bees
this afternoon. Vice President Mar

Hohe Smith made a point of order
that Senator Lane take his seat.
Senator Lodge asserted that dis
tinct charge had been made that :
Senate committee had tempered with
questions, and demanded that the re-
marks be withdrawn.
Senator Newlands, chairman of the
Interstate Commerce Committee. in
sisted that the word ''doctored" be
withdrawn.
Senator Lane withdrew the word
"doctored" and substituted the word
Inaccurate

rate, and no one can make me say

Lane.
At this point a new storm broke
forth, when Senator Bristow quoted
Senator Root as saying that he was
tired of having the Senate dragged
around by blackmailer." referring 20
David Lamar's connection with the
Lane resolution.
Senator Root said that his remarks
had been privately addressed to Sem

Senator Stone angrily declared

habit of doing those things. Per

Vice President Marshall was ham
mering constantly for order. The an
gry interchange of personal remarks
was ended by resumption of debate
on the Smith-Lever agricultural ex-
tension bill, no action having been
taken on the steel resolution.

To SAVE GIRLS
Juvenile Court Assistant DepIores
Modern Dances and Urges
Opening Homes.

CHICAGO, Jan. 31.-A new deca-
logue, for parents only, has been ex-
pounded by Miss Mary Bartelme, as
sistant in the Juvenile Court. She
spoke at Kenilworth before the
Tenth District Assembly OF the Illi-
nois Federated Woman's Clubs.
Her new commandments for par
ents. briefly summarized. ran:
l. Make the children wash the
dishes, clean windows. sweep, scrub
make beds and do ordinary house
work. Hard work will make them
strong.
2. Open your homes to young men
or boy friends of your daughters, and
to the girl friends of your sons.
3. Coax your childrens condolences
The girl who confides in her parents
is scarcely liable to go wrong. Mel
Their is the boy. No girl goes wrong
unless some boy goes with her
4. Take an interest in your chill
dren. Don't be the Indifferent parent
who doesn't know what the children
are doing.
8. Don't be a greedy parent. The
child who goes to work on a falsified
age certificate very frequently turns
out to be thief 1t starts it's bust
ness life on a very foundation of dis
honesty.
6. Don't let your girls be unescort-
ed to summer parks, to skating Kinks,
or to theaters.
z. Keep your girls pleasantly en-
ployed in the home. Lack of useful
occupation often drives a girl to
harmful pastimes.
8. Don't Let your home be as are
so many modern homes, mere places
for the children to room, get their
meals and turn in orders for new
dresses new suits and luxuries.
9. Help us to get more policewo-
men. Aid in teaching the men who
trap young girls to be afraid of the
star on a womans breast.
