Puts Responsibility on U. ..
Administration officials realize that
during the period of waiting sustain
ed effort Is being made in Germany to
place the responsibility for war on the
United States. The hint. of an offer or
mediation is regarded as an added evi-
dence of this movement but the Presi
dent and all his advisors are deter
mined that II war actually comes it
shall be clear to the world that It has
not been Of Americas choosing.
The President, to keep in touch with
army and navy preparations, cancelled
practically all engagements today ex-
cept one with Governor Mccall, of
Massachusetts,, who wanted to confer
on ways in which the state might CO.
operate with the Federal government.
The subjest Of financial cooperation
with the allies, which is expected first
to take on the form of extension of
credit for supplies, is being discussed
in tentative way with the aid of hav-
ing a concrete plan ready when the oc-
casion for using 1t comes. Officials
say consideration of the subject has
not advanced to stage where any
thing definite could be disclosed.
The question Of cooperation on sup
plying munitions is understood to be
more pressing. It Is understood the
allied governments are fearful that in
preparing the American army and
navy for war, operations the supply of
munitions to the armies In France
might be decreased at q vital mo-
ment. Plans are being considered for
a cooperative distribution Of output
which would be most effective.

GENERAL WOOD ASKS
JEWS TO ENLIST

Major General Leonard Wood
addressed the members of the Ze-
ia Beta Tau Club of New York
Saturday night, on preparedness,
and the obligation of alien-born
citizens to their adopted country,
with regard to service in the army
in war or peace.
General Wood was introduced
by Professor Richard j. H. Gott-
he'll, of Columbia University, who
said he thought Jews in this coun-
try were under obligation to Eng
land, France and Italy for favors
and protection in the past, and,
since the Russian Revolution, to
Russia. Now that the United
States was confronted with a de-

cision as to whether it wanted
war, he asserted, Jews ought to
come forward and share the bur-
den Of preparedness.
"Now is the time," added Gen.
eral Wood, Ito come out and re-
move the impression which has,
| am afraid, gotten abroad in
many quarters, that Jews are not
in active sympathy with the de-
tense of the flag. We do not want
war, heaven knows, though it
may be necessary for us to do our
share, we know not how soon.
Moral life in itself is not sufficient
protection, and though you may
be right and play fair is no in
surance that your enemy is going
to do the same, and consequently
one must be prepared"

PAIGN.

Altho complete reports of the re-
suit of the special membership campaign
waged by twenty odd committees in all
sections of the city on Monday and
Tuesday were not available at the time
we went to press, indications are that
there has been substantial sum
raised Better still, there have been en-
rolled many new members who, when
they become conversant with the work
the charities are doing, will be as en-
thusiastic as the most enthusiastic of the
old workers. If there have been any eligi-
BILE Jews overlooked (and eligible means
those who are able to contribute even the
minimum dues) they can still have their
names entered on the roll of honor
on the roll Of those who know their duty
and are willing to do it. So, worthy
reader! if you are not yet member of

up some Of the membership committees
and be enrolled-C D. M.

Greatest Creation of Its Kind.
Rome-"Al Bivia" is the name
of new opera just being COM
pleted by the great Italian poet
Gabrielle D'Anunnzio, which will
be staged at an early date in the
local opera house. The Jewish
people standing at the parting of
the ways forms the theme of this
masters new creation, and those
who have read portions of the
drama claim that it will in every
respect exceed everything that
has been seen in italian opera.

Notwithstanding plots and

the permanence of the new regime
have visibly improved at this time.

ago, and the reactionaries have
not as yet recovered from the
staggering blow they and their
leaders received. So far as the
extremists are concerned they are
always getting themselves and
others into trouble, but thus far
the new government has by it's
strength and moderation handled
them successfully. Because a
small number of Jews affiliated
with this group became somewhat
obstreperous along with the 9TH
ers, the London Times went out of
it's way to calumniate the Jews of
Russia in general, in keeping with
it's usual anti-Semitic tendencies.
It is easy to see the motive back
of this effort to make a mountain
out of a mole-hill. Fortunately
it missed fire, and only small
number of American newspapers
saw fit to notice it.
The Jews of Russia are entitled
to no small amount of credit for
the success of the revolution. They
did much to stir up the intellec-
tual and political ferment without
which the overthrow of the old
despotic regime would have been
impossible. No section of the
Russian population has furnished
more martyrs to the cause which
triumphed when Gar Nicholas
was deposed, and the Provisional
Government assumed the reins.
The attitude of the new cabinet
towards the Jewish question has
been entirely satisfactory thus
far. For the first Pesach in many,
many years the Jews Of Russia
can look forward with the fair
hope that a new era of justice
and equal rights has dawned for
them as we'll as for all the other
people Of Russia. No greater
blessing could come to any of
them than this, for the realiza-
ton of the hope would mean the
redemption of Russian Jewry for
all time to come.-Jewish Expo

WHAT THE JEWS MAY DO FOR
RUSSIA.
Ever since the glad tidings
were received of the Russian Revo-
luton and the probabilities of
future Russian republic, the press
and the people Of this country have
had a great deal to say about the
amelioration that is to come to the
Russian Jew. In vivid colors have
been portrayed the advantages
that will accrue to the Jews of Rus
STA from a Russian republic. 1t
has been shown that with freedom
of movement and civic and political
equality, the Jew will derive the
greatest benefits from Russian
domicile.
There is another side to the
question, however, which has
hardly been even minated, and
that is the advantages that will ac-
crue to the Russian republic from
the activities of it's free Jewish
citizens. The fact has been over
looked that, much as free Russia
can accomplish for the Jew, still
more can the freed Jews accom-
plish for Russia. AS it is, with all
the restrictions and disabilities to
which the Jews of Russia have
been subjected, they constitute the
most intelligent and intellectual
class of that land. Even in the
darkest days Of Russian barbar-
ism and persecution, the Jewish
inhabitants of that country have,
as a class, done more than any
other to advance it's commerce, art,
science and literature. At this
very time, when the reconstruction
of Russia has hardly been launched,
two Jews, DR.. Shatzky and Mr..
I Sack, are already actively en-
gagged, with prospects of excellent
success, in bringing about closer
relationship and the establishment
of trade between this country and
Russia. It is not difficult to see,
therefore, that, as time goes on
and the principles Of freedom are
extended to all parts and depart
ments of the Russian government,
the Jews of Russia will be able to
avail themselves of the opportuni-
ties offered and to improve them,
not only for their own gain, but for
the good and the glory of their
country.-Dr. M. SLIDER in The
Jewish Ledger.

THE COW NUISANCE.

The wartime slogan, A Cow in Every Vacant
Lot" has two sides. One of them is the food-pro-
ducing side. The other is the nuisance side.
For several weeks complaints have been growing
against the keeping of cows on small lots in the
residence sections. As the warm weather came on,
flies and odors multiplied, and unfortunately both
flies and odors refuse to stay at home but visit them
selves on the long suffering neighbors.
Especial complaint now comes from the Makiki
district. Here it is alleged some of the hometown
ers are attempting to run miniature diaries next
door to neighbors who are bothered extremely with
the resulting flies.
The Star Bulletin referred these complaints to
the city sanitary department and DR.. James 7.
Wayson, in charge, asks that the specific facts OF
location of these animal nusances be placed in his
hands. He will not make public the names of the
compliments, since that might breed unneighbOrly
feeling, but he will endeavor to have the nuisance
eliminated, and at least the place will be cleaned up

found that the average cost Of de-

far from per cent of the gross sales.
Often the grocer is called upon to
make special delivery of small arti-

SO rather than displease and possibly
lose a customer. But there would be
no danger Of loss to trade through
declining to make such deliveries II
