"THE AMERICAN JEWISH COMMIT
TEE"
"Yirtually an Encyclical.-
THE document emanating from the
Vatican is virtually an encyclical. b"
writes Herman Bernstein, editor OF
The Day and the American Hebrew.
Among all the Papal bulls ever is
sued with regard to Jews throughout
the history OF the Vatican, there is
no statement that equals this direct.
unmistakable plea for equality OF the
Jews, and against prejudice upon re-
ligiOus grounds. The bull issued by
Innocent w.. declaring the Jews in
nocent OF the charge OF using Chris
tian blood for ritual purposes, while
a remarkable document was, after all.
merely a statement OF fact, whereas
the present statement by Pope Bene-
dict XIV. is a plea against religious
prejudice and persecution.
"But what is more. the Pope was
not content with his lofty utterances
only. which might have been con.
strued in certain quarters as merel,
q decorative expression OF beautiful
generalities. He has followed his en-

have countered with series of peril
nent questions to the President and
his supporters. The New York Sun,
in another connection, suggests some
of the things the country would like
to have explained by the Presidents
defenders and apologists. Among the
things that ought to be explained be-
fore the Democrats are entitled to ask
questions are:
whether the Mexican Government
has ever saluted our flag; whether our
troops have captured Villa, dead or
alive; where Mexican bandits get the
ammunition with which to slaughter
Americans; whether President Wilson
meant what he said when he asserted
that what happened in Mexico was
none Of our business. They may make
also awkward inquiries concerning the
present status of the Lusitania, Fa-
laba, Sussex and other cases of like
nature, wishing TO learn whether the
theory of "strict accountability" has
been permanently abandoned by the
Wilson Administration"
This is a list of queries that might
be indefinitely expanded, but they
will serve to show that the mere re-
iteration of the attempt to revive
Know Nothingism in the United
States and of denunciations of Re-
publican wickedness, and the persist
ent waving of the war DOGGY, are mere
evasions of the real issue, and form
no adequate defense against the from
tai attack being made on the mistakes
and incompetencies of the Democratic
administration.

citizen of America for the future.
at is not an America torn by dis
orders, it is not an America ruled now
by this force, now by that force; it is
not an America given over to civil
war; it is not an America where pub

an America prepared, it is an America
maintaining the rights of American
peoples on the land and sea without
fear or favor throughout the world. 1t
is an America that has no secret I'M
derstandings, no covert intrigues, 1t
is an America with no unstated pur-
poses, it is an America standing four
square toward all nations firm and
prepared, intent on peace and demand

lives, property and commerce.
"The America that I see in the fu-
ture is an America that knows how to
manage its great activities without
being wasteful and extravagant. 1t
is an America that knows how to
spend public moneys honestly as well
as to appropriate them. 1t is an
America that has patriotism in every
bureau of the administration as well
as in any appropriation for military
operations. 1t is an America where
all the people abandon class antagon-
isms though having their necessary
differences which they peaceably ad-
just 1t is an America which, having
no class antagonisms, feels knit to-
gether in splendid national unity, in
one great love of country, with one
answering loyalty transcending all
differences of race and creed, with
people inspired by the ideals of Wash
ington and Lincoln. 1t is an Amer
lea first and an America efficient.
