The Cry for High Explosives

IN THE House Of Lords yesterday Lord
| Kitchener expressed his confidence
/ that gin the near future" we should be IN
satisfactory position with regard to the
supply of high explosive shells to the army
at the front. The statement implies that
as is now ndisputable we are not IN
satisfactory position to-day. The com
rents in the press to which Lord kltch-
cner referred appeared in "The Times.
The mutilated and twice-censored version
Of our military correspondents dispatch,
which we were permitted to publish, con-
tanned facts which cannot be denied.
They are known to every soldier at the
front and to many persons in this country.
We are reluctantly compelled to traverse
certain other statements made by Lord
Kitchener in his speech. He spoke of the
delay ain producing the material we at an
early stage in the war foresaw would be
required"
We have reason to know that uncom-
monty little foresight was exercised at an
early stage Of the war regarding the sup
plv of high explosives, and that the prep
arations for the manufacture of shells OF
al kinds were exceedingly inadequate.
In other words the delay was one not
merely of production, but Of ordering the
goods. Lord Kitchener further says that
"at an early stage of the war we took the
preliminary steps" TO manufacture high
explosive shells for field guns. The reply
is that the steps which were taken were
VIGOROUSLY insufficient, and even now DO
rot suffice. After every allowance is made
for the unexpected revelation of the num-
her and character Of the shells required in
trench warfare, the fact remains that
when warnings were received they went
unheeded far too long.
These are not new statements. We have
made them again and again during many
months. Long ago we urged that 1--WE
shall only understand this war, and learn
the way to win it, if we keep our minds
constantly fixed upon this one dominant
question of shells" 1t is not a matter for
recriminaton, but it is of vital importance

heaps upon the Aubers Ridge ten days
ego because the field guns were short, and
4,ravely short, of high explosive shells.
Our sole purpose is 20 insure that such
= lamentable defect shall be made good as
soon as possible. Lord Kitchener must
hear his share Of the responsibility, be-
cause against much wise advice he insisted
upon keeping in his own hands the con-
troll Of questions with which the War Office
was far too preoccupied to deal. He could
rot raise immense new armies and direct
industrial organization as well. Yet that
is what he tried to do, and the result was
confusion.
Manufacturer after manufacturer can
relate how they offered to make shells. how

not have happened.
The famous journalist and unofficial
statesman arrived in fit physical condition.
TO '"The Times" he appeared
to be in the best of health and full
Of vigor He wore a blue serge suit, soft gray
hat and red checked tie, and carried Maacca
cane. Golf and motoring will be his recrea-
tions, when he takes any, during his stay in
this country. He brought his golf outfit or

Another New York paper, "The World"
described his debarkation as follows;
With characteristic nervous energy he was
off the ship and upon the pier before other
passengers had picked up their handbags.
With Characteristic jump and 90 he was on
his way out of the pier shed and to his motor
car before many people had good look az
him. They had time to note, however, that

finally brought a somewhat startled and
angry British public around to his way o.

Lord Northcliffe's public career has been
a varied and coorful one. Isaac f. Mar

Zionism Not of This World
Lucen Wolff Writes Article Prove That the Jew, Never
Natonaist Such Is Confusing Eschatology with Politics

of a divine scheme Of human redemption.
And the 100000 conservative and Or
thodox. non-Zionistic Jews Of Central and
Western Europe, of the United States,
Canada, Australia and South Africa, to
this very hour, see the redemption prayers
in the exclusive light of religion.
The Jews are instinctively the most
assimilative of peoples. Well, until the
French Revolution there were no self
conscious nations in Europe, properly So
called, except perhaps, in rudimentary
form, in England and Holland.
Now and again poet like the famous
Judah ha-Levi 18th century, would sing
of the past national glories of Israel, but
he evoked no practical echo. Occasionally
a pseudo Messiah would appear on the
scene, but ne found few followers. The
relative success of the sensational appear
ance in the Levant Of Sabbathai Zebi
GG60), on the heels of the horrors OF
the Thirty Years War C16lS-48), which
evoked the general belief that the reign
Of Christ on earth was at hand, and of
the frightful massacres Of the Jews in
Poland (1655), was rather due TO the re-
vval of Messianic than of national hopes
and tendencies.
When Volney, Condorcet, Carnot and
Gr6goire formulated the modern democratic
doctrine Of nationality, not only did the

Jews remain absolutely unattracted by
the new doctrines. but they hastened, on
their own behalf, to refuse to profit by it.
They only asked for the right to be in
corporated with equal rights as citizens
of the new nations.
This aspiration was formally sanctioned
on behalf of the Jews of France, Italy,
Holland and South Germany by the great
Sanhedrin, summoned by Napoleon |. in
1906. On the basis of that solemn dec
laration by the Rabbis and Jewish
notables Of Bonaparte's empire, which was
confirmed by rabbinical conferences held,
the one in 1S45 in Frankfurt-on-theM Main,
Germany, the other, in 1869, in Philadel-
pha, the whole battle for Jewish emanci-
1t was only in the beginning of the
COS, when the so-called principle of
nationalities was revived by Napoleon III,
that faint manifestation of national
sentiment was noted in the Jewish COM
munity. 1t took the form Of a pamphlet,
Rome and Jerusalem" (1S62), by the
Social Democrat Moritz Hess 1Sl2-T5),
in which the re-estabishment of the Jews
as nation in Palestine was advocated.
The opuscle met with significantly cold
reception; it was revived by Theodor
Herzl, Max Nordau, Israel Zangwill and
is now numbered among the classics of
Zionistic literature.

1881, the bomb which killed Car Alex

The completely of the problem to be
solved one day at the green table can best
be gagged if we consider that the Jew
constitutes IA per cent of the total popu-
lation Of Russian Poland, now solidly
occupied by the armies Of Germany and
Austria, and that 40 per cent of the towns
folk are more or less Ineal descendants
Of the Patriarchs.
The Zionistic movement, this latest mani
festation Of the national spirit which has
been responsible for the unifcation of
Germany and Italy and is partly respon-
sible for the present war, has no valid
claim to it's pretended HebrewPalestin-
ian origin. 1t is a child Of its immediate
environment; its roots are not sunk IN
che soil of inherited tradition and ethno-
graphic peculiarties. From the time of
Bar Kokba, who raised the flag of Jewish
revolt against Rome for the last time in
the year 1872 A. D., TO our own time, there
is scarcely a trace Of Jewish national feel
ing, in the political sense Of the word, in
Jewish history and literature. The Zion
lists simply confuse eschatology with
politics.
The prayers in the Jewish liturgy for
the restoration Of the Temple and the
Holy City we're and are not meant for
the satisfaction Of a worldly craving but
express the longing after the fulflment

tional movement, as it is presented, in
the April issue Of the Edinburgh Re-
view" by one Of the most prominent Eng
lish Jews, the well-known journalist and
historian, Lucen Wolf, one Of the few
really competent writers on Jewish af-
fairs in Great Britain.
The Jewish nationality problem has
more or less silently developed itself in
Eastern Europe during the last thirty-fiye
years, i. G., since 1882, when the first great
exodus from Russia 10 Western Europe
and America set in. Few people know
that Western Russia alone harbors close
on 20 100000 Jews. while in the adjacent
territories, 70 which a new political geog-
raphy will have TO be given, are little
short Of another couple Of millions. In
other words, the "Unredeemed' Hebrews
in the East Of Europe are equal in num-
Der 10 the combined Czech-Sloyak, Servian
and Italian "Irredentas." And their ma
tional consciousness is not less intense,
their national aim not less definite than

Ii eyes are on Lord Northclife.

LII eyes are on LORD NOrthcllHe.
~ He has come to America prepared
for hard work and few words He
has come with great eagerness. 1t IS re-
ported that from the time the post was
offered 10 him by Premier Lloyd George
until his actual sailing for America only
thirty-three hours elapsed.
Newly appointed the head Of the British
War Mission TO the United States, Lord
Northclfe viii try to coordinate the work
of the several British organizations al
ready established in this country.
Lord NorthclifTe knows exactly where
Great Britain made her mistake, and he
consequently is prepared to warn America
away from those mistakes. A short time
prior to sailing he dictated the following
statement:
The United States has been an over-rich
corporation that invited trouble among hun
cry competitors Competition between ma
tions takes the form Of war; If England had
had a mild military insurance there would
have been no war. We were like you, oter-
rally talking about money, business or ter
ritorial expansion. The Germans fell upon
us. The curious fact about life is that the
richer people become the more they preach
peace. It peases them and their pockets.
We were all purse and no fist.
Your position was even worse, because,
much to the annoyance Of the multitude,
certain number among US did insist upon
modern navy, although some of our richest
people, as well as those most politically
strong, advocated a reduction Of the feet.
This war has shown that expert officers
can soon train mobs into armies, provided
that armies may come in the air and may
one day come under the water. If in the
early DAYS OF the war the Germans had had
the brains TO land $4,000 troops from aero
planes on England and dig themselves in, in
stead of fooine with gas bag Zeppelins, we
should have had a trouble very difficult to
eradicate.
If we had spent as much on the right kind
Of preparedness each year as we now spend
in two weeks of the war (our daily expendi-

their offers were coldly rejected, and how
after months had been lost they were i'm
plored to begin. The matter does not end
there. Requests and warnings from the
front about the need for high explosives
have been grievously dsregarded. The
War Office thought it knew how to direct
the present form of warfare better than
the men on the spot.
While the French authorities steadily
raised the percentage of high explosive
shells allotted to their field guns, our gum
ners were expected to do the same work
With shrapnel, and the percentage Of high
explosives sent across the Channel re-
manned, and still remains, dangerously low.

Insurgent! Tina, is precisely the
word for Northclffe, because he has defed
all tradition, smashed all precedent. Herein
lies the first secret of his success. In land
where the fashion of the fathers is the rule
in thought and deed, he literally created a
new school of mind and action. He is more
American in outlook and performance than
any of his contemporaries.

ment swayed by the press; the owner OF

THE Contemporary Review" for May
contains an account of The British
Revolution" 1t begins with a quo
tation from the wisdom of Edmund Burke:
A great empire and little minds go III
together" so one knows at once that it
was not a revolution in the streets, news
Of which had been suppressed by the Eng
lish censor. But
Revolution of kind it certainly was.
Not for hundred years had any British
Prime Minister made such trenchant and
drastic use of the powers left to him as
legatee of the old crown authority; never
before had any First Lord swipt the
bosom so freely over our most sacred polti-
cal conventions. II is not in the least sur
prsing that the old pariamentarians still
reel under the shock of that earthquake,
or that they view this seismic minister with
a grave and austere suspicion.
What "The Contemporary Reviews"
critic, Harold Spencer, calls the new
Prime Minister'S Experiments on the Brit
ish Constitution" have now been tested in
wars crucible for more than three months,
and it is time to take stock. The writer
proceeds TO enumerate and review the
