l 1ng on the ancient preJud1ce asaIns' | England.
 1 Here is a quotation from this "reli- gious publica tion:
 The State Department assures us that the Germans are making awful i trouble in South America. We dare say, however, that they have preo | g b1y not gone to the extremes to which ] the Britishers and the Americans have gone in China. It is meanwhile being pointed out with regret that internal disturbances will probably postpone the entrance of China into genuine. The British and American Ministers should be sent home as in competent since they were unable to accomplish anything beyond sowing Giscord in the Celestial Empire" Here is another:
 Tt is childish on the part of the American press to attempt to inject into the people the fear that the wicked Germans intend to come to
 America and ravage the country. In the first place the Germans could not GO it if they wanted to and would not want to do it even if they could. The intent, of course, is to create a war like feeling against Americas enemy, Meanwhile, the actual hereditary en- emy of America is taken into our arms :ts an ally and helped with all our en- ergy to attain her aims And these aims are by no means friendly to

 Here is further editorial note about England
 The sturdy Britishers' are keeping this so-called free America ensiaved. The blacklist against American bus mess firms is still in force even though annulled. and no American firm is al- lowed to ship anything on an Amer ican ship to a neutral country unless a British consul has first given his
 
 so eagerly declared the existence of q state of war with Germany, liberate us from these chains of slavery?"
 Here is one more:
 Tt is an abominable shame that England is allowed systema tically to suppress news and reports in this country, partly with the aid of the dirty British gold which controls the press of the United States and part ly because British censorship SUD- presses all news which might harm the Allies and allows orly such mat ter to reach the United States which shows the Allies in favorable light. Even Hobson, the Hero Of Manila" (sic), admits that since the beginning of the war the British censors have robbed the United States of all the true ia cts. If Congress should now decide likewise to have an American censor ship. no one will be able in future to read single true word concerning what is going on at the Front"
 The foregoing quotations give an excellent idea of the temper of this so- called religious" weekly. But they do more than that. They give at the same time, an excellent idea of the temper of all the German language newspapers which the present writer | has examined. In all of them there is | -he same batting of England, the same 1 references to the Uni | ted States Government, the same ob- | sence of any censure of the German | 
 The "HeroId des Giaubens" Is do- $ helping to cultivate the delusion 1 that our enemy is not Germany, but | England. It is doing all it can to keep l he American people from entering | whole e-heartedly into the war which l heir nation is waging to end autoc- -acy and to create a better world or Ter.
 There Is no room in the United States al this time for a paper print ng sentiments such as those quoted | ibove. The United States Is enga ged n a desperate war. the outcome of which is still uncertain. To allow ;uch poison to be sold and sent trough the United States mats while xistence, is worse than foolish.
 It is criminal.
 The government should take one of wo actions in regard to Der Herold les GIaubens." It should stipu1ate hat this religious weekly stick to re- lgion and avoid any and every refer nee to politics and international re- ations: or it should forbid the paper he use of the United States mails.
