DENIES THE zEALAND|A
WAS IN MEXICAN WATERS
British Embassy Explains Search of
Vessel-Statement Is Con-
tradicted. However.

An explanation of the recent search
of the United States steamship Yea
iandia by British sailors off Prosresso.
Mex. has been made 10 the Secretary
of State by Charge Barclay of the
British embassy. who said the vessel
was on the high seas at the time
and not in Mexican territorial waters
as had been alleged.
This assertion. however. is contra
dlcted BY the captain of the Iealand'a.
VINO denies that his ship was outside the
three mile limit and therefore was in a
neutral port. in direct contradiction of the
British comma nders report that the
Lealandia WAS outside the territorial
limits of MeNico and therefore on the
high seas.
Efforts will be made by the State De
partment to determine just where the
vessel was. and the American consul
at frogreso has been instructed to take
aftdaTitS of witnesses. Officials of the
state Department say much may de-
pend upon the intent OF the commander
of the cruiser, should it be found that
the Zealandia actually was within the
three-mile limit. No definite action
will be decided upon by the United
States until all the facts are known.

into the water. He believes he swan

No Clash With Americanism.

i see no clash between Judaism and
Amerlcanism. We may be told we are
eXiles in the United States, but any
Jew who really so considers himself
ought to rid this country of his pres
ence. The failure on the part Of a
Jewish newcomer to this country to
naturalize himself and to appreciate
all the privileges and obligations of
citizenship is as much betrayal OF
Judaism as of Americanism.
1T is a part OF the task of Zionism
to make capital of prejudice. pogrom
and persecution to show us that the
Jew cannot live emancipated in exile
If Palestine can only accommodate
from three to five million Hebrews.
are the other millions of us still to re-
main victimiZed''
DR.. Simon pointed out in the course
of his remarks that he believes Zionism
is a political program and that is the
objection to the foundation of a Jewish
state in Jerusalem. He said no objec-
tion is made to the cultivation of the
land or other such things, and that
he does not believe in the formation of
a Jewish congress.

yer. l do not consider him a great in
terpreter of Jewish history. The loss
of the temple at Jerusalem. and. with it
our nationality. was no curse. in my
belief. The political history of the
Jews is not nearly as inspiring as the
religious. The great figures of the
age, from solomon to captivity in
Babylon, were not the kings, but the
prophets. The exile in 5S6 B. c. proved
that Jewish religion was independent
of Palestine" he said
In captivity the Jews did not hang
up their harps and refuse to sing, as
Mr. Aaronsohn stated, either. The fin
est psalms and prophecies were all the
product of exile
Mr.. Brandeis lays emphasis upon
the contribution Zionism will make to
American democracy. l fail to see how
a successful Jewish state in the orient
could contribute to democracy in the
United States. A Zionist American
Jew is double -hyphenated American.

was not molested, although no docu-

THE GERMAN VIEW.

AS Is generally the case, there are
two sides to this controversy with Ger.
many. Letting out of consideration the
refusal Of Germany to assume respon.
sibility for the unwarranted sinking of
the Lusitania, their new proposal for
the safety Of Americans travelling to
Europe Is worthy of attention. They
are willing that American ships and
American passengers and non-contra-
band American cargoes should pass
the submarines in perfect safety. They
are willing to give assurance that none
such will be harmed. But they do OBJ.
ject to having to permit their enemy's
ships to escape them through fear that
they. may take the life of neutrals who
may choose to be aboard.

EXPERIENCE.

Experience is recognized as the
greatest and most efficient teacher that
man has Few people, however realize
that there are two experiences" both
doing almost exactly the same work
and therefore confused One of these
Is your own experience and the other
Ia the experience of other people. The
tuition fee charged by your own ex.
nerience is considerable and the course
is a long one and for that reason
people will tell you that 1.-The school OF
experience is a costly one" These
are the people who do not know of that
other great teacher, others experience.
For this latter teacher. the fee is but
trivial. The only thing is that there
are fewer students in the school OF
others experience and for that reason
less attention is paid to it. But the
fact remains that more can be learned
IN shoKter time from others expert
ence than> from ones own experience.
Men and especially young men just
starting out in life, will find that they
can get better results and much sooner
by learning from others experience
rather than taking course in expert
ence for themselves. The latter course
Is laid out for everyone, but it takes
time and the lessons are sometimes
very hard. It costs less and is easier
to learn from the other mans expert
ence.
The plane on which the world rests
today is, higher than 1t was even a
short hundred years ago, because of
the experiences Of men during that
century OF time What many of their
taught tthem we are taking
for axioms today. Whst many of our
experiences are teaching as today our
descendants will take as axioms hun
dred years from now. To 90 contrary
to the repeated experiences Of the ages

Long Run

Many manufacturing industries are

iast!cally regarding war orders. for
think they possess considerable of the
boomerang nature. may illustrate
this by repeating what was said to me
last evening by an Englishman.
was speaking OF war orders and
wondering how England and her allies
felt towards our eagerness in accept
ing them. I asked him whether the
English considered this friendly act
on our part or simply cold blooded
commercial proposition. The reply
was:
England regards the European sit
uation much as house which has been
broken into by burglar In the middle
of the night, with France and Belgium
quietly sleeping in bed. England Is q
real neighbor who hears the commo-
ton and rushes to seize the burglar.
The United States is new and timid
person, who recently moved into the
vicinity, who helps by stealthily enter
ing, seizing the silver which the burg
lar is after, and hiding with it under
the bed until the burglar is bound and
sent of to the lookup.
"Of course, from now on, while we
are fighting the burglar" said this
Englishman, you should have fairly
easy time under the bed with the sill
yer; but after the burglar is disposed
Of, and you come out from under the
bed, you may rest assured that you will
not have the silver for your own"
If readers will supply the words
war orders for silver, they will un.
derstand how feel about this special
class of business from which we are
now temporarily profiting but from
which there may be reaction.
Business is still poorest in the south,
although conditions are much improv-
ed ever eight months ago. Personally,
l am rather sorry that they have 50 i'm
proved, because the southern planters
are not diversifying their crops so
much as they promised to do when
they felt the pinch last fall. Before
our southern friends can depend on
continued good business, they must
learn to raise even more corn and
wheat, and even less cotton.
