Jews Of America
Ask Russians to
Stand by Allies

Washington, April 26.-American
Jews, headed by Louis Marshall, and
including Henry Morgenthau, Jacob
Schiff, Oscar Straus, Julius Rosen-
valid, as representatives Of American
Jewish committee, today joined in
sending to Foreign Minister Milukoff
at Petrograd cable imploring Rus
sian Jews to oppose any step which
might lead to separate peace. Such
a step the appeal says, would lead
to the restoration OF an autocratic
government and degradation Of the
Jews in Russia below even their FORM
er condition.
A cablegram on the subject was re-
ceived here having been sent by Mr..
Schiff, who received it from a promi-
nent Jew in Petrograd. 1t says that
some ultra politicians and very few
Jews who are at peace, ARE consider
ed as traitors.
"Jewry as a whole is sharing the
loyalty of fellow citizens, who are
decidedly against separate peace"
says the dispatch. "They always have
been good patriots and now more
than ever will fight for their free
country"

CARRANZA WARNS
GERMANS AT BORDER
Mexican Government Gives
First Evidence of Countrys
Neutrality.
PUTS HEAVIER TAX ON OIL

Washington, April 26.--Ofiicial ad-
vices to the State department today
said the Mexican government had
warned Germans in Mexico that any
concentration of Germans near the
obrder would be followed Intimately
by their arrest.
Officials of the Aemircan govern
ment were gratifed by this first prac-
tical manifestation of Mexico's
proclaimed neutrality. ,lFlJs--
Instructions of the German foreign
Office to Minister Eckardt in Mexico
City to do what he could to secure
Mexico as an ally in the event of
war with the United States, have
caused all developments in Mexico to
be watched carefully.
President Carranza's recent decree
providing heavier export tax on oil
and its derivative has not been con-
strued by the State department as an
intentional blow at Great Britain, but
merely what the Mexican government
calls it, a measure to raise much
needed money.

In only a small number of states
have tenants7a legal right to sunlight
and air. Those are the states that
have housing laws. They are the
only states, too, that have any pro-
lection against slums, and every
state, every city, every town has
slums or ,slum spots
So it can be seen that those states
which have housing laws are not
especially those which need them
most. They. are only the ones that
are the most enlightened.
Most housing laws provide not only
for the correStion OF slums, but that
houses hercAfef, erected shall be
properly CONSTRUCTED, at least so as
to be sanitary: So it is evident that
good housing comes both by grace
and by law. Bad housing can be
controlled only bylaw, and housing
laws deal only with the most vital
essentials necessary to decency and
safety. u .,l.~.
There is no, housing law in the
country that requires more than the
minimum standards necessary for
safety, as conceded by sanitariums,
architects. Legislators and property
owners. They all Craze the danger
line, and everything below is men,
ace to the community.
At this time, when the life of
every individual in doubly precious
to our country, it is objectionable
that lives should be sacrificed by pre-
ventable disease bred in the slums
of our cities. lN-,
The homes of the nation should all
be protected against disease by the
laws of their states.

Marnie wanted very much. A beauti-
full doll she had seen i'm a store

had not yet decided which to buy.
She sat down in the Library and
thought it aid over. Then she ram
up stairs.
Mother, she called, Could

you think?'
why, yes, suppose So" said
her mother.

Yes, fine big flag, should

must have a real flag.
Mother smiled as she listened,
and when they went to buy the flag
think a little of mothers money
too, went into it, for lit was as
beautiful as al flag could be, and as
big as nine year-old girl could
carry over her shoulder.
The next morning when Marnie
stepped out of the door with her
head high and her precious flag
waving proudly in the air, There ON
the sidewalk were ALL the boys, with
John at their head. Not Marnie,
nor Barbara Frietchie. or George
). Washington himself, could have
seen thing to crifticise in the way
they saluted the flag that morning
and marched behind it until it
landed safe and sound in their

exercise of Salutdng the Flag, for,
you see, they had real flag to
salute.
