ROUMANIA.

At last Roumania, the "eretz had
damim' land of blood, from the Jew
ish point of view, has plunged into
the bloody maelstrom on the side of
the Allies. Roumania that has treat
ed her Jews as "aliens not subject
to an alien power" even though
they were born there, and served in
her armies; that followed SO faith
fully the example of her semi-bar-
porous preccptress, Russia, in her
attitude toward the Jews, even to
the extent of encouraging pogroms;
that had the brazen effrontery to
ignore and to nullify the provision
of her agreement with the European
powers to grant the Jews the rights
of citizenship, in spite of all protests
from civilized nations against such
perfdy-Roumania now adds an
other infamy to her long list of in
iquities by going into war, though
having no quarrel with anybody in
particular, simply to satisfy her
greed, and to come in for share
in the final division of the spoils
She has with sinister cunning waited
these two long years of the Euro
pean war to see what side is more
likely to give promise of success,
and has now decided in favor of the

OPENING OF THE RELIGIOUS
SEASON.

The lull in all religious activity dur
ing the summer months is apt to wean
people from their customary religious
pabulum. People may feel tempted
to say to themselves: If we can get
along without the customary religious
exercises during two or three months
of the year, why not during the re-
mainder Of the year also?
Some people actually have such a
feeling, not only because of the sum-
mer rest, but because of their pecu-
liarly selfish and materialistic view
and habits of life. They long ago con-
cluded to their own satisfaction that
for them religion has no office or
function, even tho it may be good
enough for others. Not that their
powerful minds have grasped the full
connotation of religion Far from it,
They have their own idea and esti-
mate of religion, which may be more
or less indicative Of their ignorance
and incapacity for thinking. But they
are fully convinced that their idea is
correct.
To counteract all such impressions
it is all the more necessary to enter
upon the coming religious season with
an earnest enthusiasm and fervor
After all the main function of religion
is to convince people of their need
of religion, of adopting and cultivat-
ing the religious conception of life, of
looking at life, the world and human
ity from the religious point of view,
which is Numerically opposed to the
modern commercia1istic and material
tic viewpoint.

AS TO PREJUDICE AND
DISCRIMINATION.

We are familiar with the legend
that greets one in many a summer
hotel advertisement or enlightening
little folder or booklet, namely 'Jew-
ish patronage not solicited p And
even when this brazen announcement
is not published to the world, Jews,
on application, are given to under
stand that their presence as guests is
not desirable In explanation of this
affront "mine host generally tells you
that he has no prejudice whatsoever;
that all guests are alike to him; that
the Jews money is as good as the
Christians or infdel's; but that it is
the other Christian guests who object
to the presence of Jews, which is
probably quite true.
And yet we know of any number of
summer resorts where Jews and non
Jews mingle quite freely, sit in their
rocking chairs on the same porch, eat
at the same table, have adjoining
rooms in the same hotel, without the
least prejudice being shown by one
against the other. The guests of such
hotels, however, belong to what is
generally called "the common peo-
pie" the kind of people that God in
His graciousness has multiplied so ex-
tensively, the people who are neither
rich nor poor, but just comfortable
enough to be able to take little va
cation in the summer. They do not
look upon Jews as unfit for their as
ISOLATION. They know of no inferior
class or caste. Some Jews they may
not find to their liking, even as in the
case of some non Jews; others they
may like very we'll.
Those who show the stupid pre-
JUDGE on account of which "mine
host regretfully excludes Jews be-
long to the rich upstairs, the would
be fashionab1es, the pretenders and
climbers. They must have classes of
people upon whom they may look

down as interiors; and for them the
Jews, as a class, answer the purpose.
In other words their prejudice is moth
ing but snobbery, a common frailty
of the newly rich, a class with which
Our country is abundantly blessed.
But is there any reason why we
should complain? Are there not also
plenty of Jewish snobs?

WILL Be NO WAR
SAYS CARRANzA
MEXICO AND UNITED STATES
NOW ON GOOD TERMS, SAYS
DE FACTO RULER.
General Amnesty to be Proclaimed
When Order is Established in
Mexico and Many Reforms to
be Instituted.

Mexico City.-General Carranza In
an interview Friday said that the stat
us of the negotiations with Washing
ton was very satisfactory as the re
suit OF the good will shown to each
other by Mexico and the United States
Thanks to this feeling Of good
will" the first chief continued, I'VE will
be able to avoid war. War is some
thing | Go not desire, but II there were
no other remedy for the situation
would enter upon it."
General 'Carranza, however refused
to discuss the situation as it related
to the possible action OF President
Wilson or OF the Latin n-American ma
tons which offered to mediate in the
trouble between the United States and
Mexico. Within a short time, the first
chief said, there would be incorporat
ed in the constitution OF Mexico ali the
reforms which now find place in the
program of the constitutionalists. In .
large measure, he declared, some of
these reforms already are in opera
tions and there remains only their in
corporation into the fundamental laws
Of the country.
The presidential election, Carranza
said, would take place as soon as the
work of reconstructing the constitution
had been completed and when the
country was at peace.
The de facto government, the first
chief asserted, will pass a law of am
nesty, SO that all Mexicans who have
left the country for one reason or an
other can return II they desire. Such
law, however, he said, would not be
promulgated as long as the govern
ment was not on Arm basis, because
among some Of the Mexicans now liv-
ing abroad there are those who would
return to Mexico to conduct agitations
and disturb labor conditions.
"As for myself, personally, do not
care" General Carranza declared, but
do care, of course, for the govern
ment and the country The work of
tringing about the political reconstruc-
ton Of Mexico is most difficult and
must be carried forward under peace
full conditions Let these Mexicans
who are disturbers stay where they are
until such time as the country has a
constitution and a government. Then
they can return and work"

Chicago, August 5, and nominate can

dent and continue the party's exist
ence as distinct political organiza-
tion was issued here Saturday night
by John M. Parker, vice-presidentia
nominee of the Progressive conven-
ton, held in Chicago last June. He
urged the Progressives to "eternally
bury" the bull moose, which, he as.
serts. led his loyal followers into the
wilderness" and to adopt in its place
the American eagle as the emblem OF
the party.
Mr. Parker does not mention Col
onel Roosevelt or any other progress
sive leaders or any candidates by
name. He declares, however, that the
Progressives had as supposed leaders
"red-blooded Americans who prom
ised with the life-blood' to stay
with the party to the fnish," but that
the party had been deserted by a
large part of it's officers, who could
aot stand the acid test.

third German line OF defense. The
weather remains dry and warm.
The operations the past few days
have been more in the nature OF open
lighting, the Germans using strong
points on favorable ground which were
good machine positions to gain time
in rallying reinforcements which ar
rive and dig new trenches while the
British dig opposite them with each
stage of the advance Frequently
they are 30 near each other that nei-
ther side dares use its guns. Every
possible protection is seized and stout
iy held by both sides.
In Volhynia the Russians in the re-
CLAN OF Ostroff and Goubine have put
down heavy Teutonic attacks, launch
