However, These Are a Few
Points Which the JingOeS
Will Not Care to Emphasize

Just as we expected, it came to pass
When we heard that the German sub
marine merchantmen Deutschland had
succeeded in making the trip over here
safely, we felt pretty certain we would
hear from the jingoes, and we have
heard.
And we have heard what we almost
knew we would hear.
"If the Germans could bring one sub
marine over to these shores, why not 10,
or 100, or 1,OO0?"
We expect to learn next that the mu-
milton makers have put another movie
production on the road, founded on the
achievement Of the Deutschland. some
thing on the exaggerated order OF The
Battle Cry of Peace" showing New York
reduced to a pile of brick and in flames
and the residents in flight for their lives.
We expect to learn they have dcre this
because the munitior makers are not
overlooking any bets or any opportunities
to inject fighting fear into the class
which still holds to a belief hat patriot
ism can be expressed only out OF the end
of gun barrel, with powder and shell
If the munition makers moYie-drama-
tie the Deutschland feat, they will in
no place of course, call attention 10 the
fact that the Deutschland was successful
in this accomplishment principally be-
Il tnf j
simply COULD NOT BE DONE.
1t was successful because of a belief
everywhere that it would not be at
tempted
Do you think it could have been ac-
complished, first, if England had positive
knowledge that the Deutschland was out
in the ocean?
Or do you think it could have been &C
complshed if the United States, in row
with Germany, had positive knowledge
that the Deutschland was headed, or even
likely to be headed for these shores?
The last lap covered by the Deutsch-
land was run for the three-mile limit.
That was the only time she was really
exposed.
Do you think this last lap would have
been as easy if there had been the danger
of mines to cope with, or if nets had been
stretched for the Deutschland.
AS we say, these things will not be
suggested by the munition makers if the
Deutschland's safe arrival here inspires
another movie.
They have no place in the movie
scheme of the munition makers.
They would take too much terror out
Of the thing.
Terror is the thing upon which mill
tarism feeds.

We Cannot Feed Starving
Poland; Why Not, Then,
Feed Starving Mexico

Pretty nearly everybody is in SYM
pathy with the Presidents efforts to as
sist starving Poland, an innocent victim
of the European war. but, as we are
NJ against stone wall. unable to reach
those unhappy people. why not look to
those at our own door?
MEXICO, TOO, is STARVING.
We want to help Mexico to get upon
its feet.
The president said so in no uncertain
terms in this city on Monday, and the
first way in which we can help, is to
kaep its people alive; to save its children
from starvation.
While we are looking for more diplo-
matte means and good financial basis
upon which to build, countless little
lives are being sacrificed.
It is the instinct of humanity to Rem
DER FIRST AID, which in this instance
Is FOOD.
There is a strong possibility that
even bandits have hearts; that they
love their wives and children and that
they suffer anguish when they see them
die of hunger.
It is even possible that this harrow
ing experience SO enrages them that

fate.
WOULD AN AMERICAN MAN BE
DIFFERENT, BROUGHT FACE TO

the people of the United States if these

the American people to all Mexico, i'm
partially, there is a possibility that bor-
der raids would cease; that confidence
would be restored and that instead of
hostilities, we would establish founda-
ton of mutual helpfulness.
While the Mexican is an implacable
hater and has much cause for hatred
against the American inhabitants Of
Mexico, he is just as susceptible to
kindness and responds just as quickly.
When we wish to be on friendly terms
with individuals, we do not assume a
hostile attitude and stand aloof
Especially if he is suffering, We rush
to his assistance, spontaneously, without
much thought of inconvenience to our
selves.
Countries are aggregates of individu-
ais, and the same method holds good.

be sent across the border; let the poor
wretched women snatch all they can gel
