CLEVELAND, o., April 22.-The
Iron Trade Review today says: The
announcement OF the Pennsylvania

aging event OF the past week, eclips-
ing even the news In regard TO or
ders for war materials and for lathes

turers who have taken orders for
projectiles. The appearance OF the
Northwestern railroad with an in

of them come for the purpose of de-
veloping the country the Jewish resi-
dents would soon accomplish Won
ders.
THE Jews are a fine race. They
have existed through thousands of
years of persecution. Their religion
has survived through the centuries.
The sign of a true religion Is its per-
manency.
Taking off restrictions from Jews
will not alone aid the race. The
world will be benefited thereby. In
those countries where the Jews have
been given equal rights with other
citizens they have forged to the front,
as is instanced in England, France
and America. Even where they are
oppressed have the Jews forged to the
front.
"The Jews have accomplished Won
ders for the world. Jewish names are
recorded in the history of every ma
tion. Why, then, should such an in
telligent people. have been deprived of
their rights for SO many centuries? :?
The nations which have learned their
lesson early have already benefited
thereby greatly"
General Huerta pointed to his inter-
prefer and secretary, Abraham Rat

large fortune in Mexico. He is very
proud Of Mr. Rather, who is a Hun

blue babies and too high a per-
centage of deaths among the twilight
sleep infants have caused two Of the
largest maternity hospitals in New

the Sloan maternity hospitals it was
said the use of the twilight sleep"
treatment had been greatly restricted

that one reason the treatment practi-

the cases are much more difficult to
handle. The mortality among moth
ers is about the same as in normal
