EDl TORI AL

The "War Chest" or "Victory
Chest" idea is spreading. 1t means
one single contribution or subscrip-
ton by every citizen to one general
fund raised by the entire community
and administered by general COM
mittee, which fund is distributed in
certain proportion among the diff
ferent relief work agencies, such as
the Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A., the
Jewish War Sufferers Relief, and
Others. Such large communities as
Philadelphia, Cleveland and Detroit,
and many smaller ones are trying
it out. 1t seems to be working sat-
isfactorily, altho in Philadelphia,
where the work is nearly completed,
some criticism is heard in regards
to the composition of the general
committee, on which certain sections
of the community are not repre-
sented, and in regard to the attitude
of some prejudiced people, who
could not see why their money
should be used for Catholic, or
Protestant, or Jewish benevolences,
as the case may be. We hope that
when the idea is applied in these
regions, no such difficulties will
arise.

Some Jews, like Professor Morris
Jastrow of Philadelphia, argue that
the Arabs have better claim to
Palestine than we Jews have, so that
we have no right to take it away
from them. Such contention springs
from gross misconception of the
plans of the Zionists and misunder-
standing of the British declaration.
No one intends to take Palestine
away from the Arabs or from any
body else. Zionists merely wish the
Jews to be free to settle there in as
large numbers as possible and to be
given all the necessary rights to
develop the country. The Arabs and
all others will be benefited by it as
much as the Jews. The Zionists
also wish to see a republican form
Of government established there, and
in republic the majority furnishes
the. governing body.

really have a mission to perform in
the Gentle world, as the anti-Zion-
lists maintain. Think of our original

have had a Chautauqua, if we Jews
had not started it. They would

Do you remember Kishineff, the
principal city of Bessarabia, and its
unhappy Jews, the victims of fiend
tish pogrom? Well, the poor Jewish
denizens of that city are again sub
jected to humiliations and atrocities,
and this time at the hands of their
new masters, the Roumanians.
Bessarabia is Germany's gift to
Roumania, and the Roumanians
are showing their gratitude to the
Kaiser by acting in his spirit and
adopting his methods toward their
new Jewish subjects.

A severe indictment Of German
anti-Semitism, penned by Ben Alt
heimer, formerly of St. Louis and
now of New York, is making the

Most pleasing is the news that
comes from Palestine telling Of the
friendly, almost brotherly relations
that exist between the new conquer
ors of the land, the English, and the
Jewish residents and colonists.
The two together form the govern
ing element Of the country, and give
it an administration such as the
country probable has not had, since
the days of Solomon. Still more
cheering is the news that the Eng
lish have resumed their drive north
land toward Galilee.

From the American Israelite:

with the exception of few
wrong-headed individuals, who are
always looking for something differ
ent, of hunters for the limelight, who
are seeking for prominence, for in
huence or preferment, the large ma
jorlty of American eWs; namely,
those who are merely good citizens,
who do their duty by their country,
their community, their families and
to themselves, are without any par
ticular interest in the Zionist move
ment They regard the Zionists as
being composed of two classes, rain
bow chasers, and those who trade
on their idealism and utilize it for
their own advantage"
Is all this outburst due to the fact
that DR.. ]. Krauskopf has been

DO YOUR CHRISTMAS SHOPPING EARLY.

IT'S an old slogan, renewed this year with seri-
Gus purpose and with the sanction of the federal
government For, it's SHOP early" for the
Yanks over there, or not at all. The Tribune
presents in its news columns today regulations
laid down by the war department for the trans
mission of Christmas packages to the Yanks in
foreign service. These rules will be vigorously
enforced. Therefore, shop now, shop we'll and
shop wisely, and get HIS package off in time Can
you imagine HIM, in the trenches over there,
without HIS Christmas box from home when the
other boys get theirs.
On this subject the council of national defense
issues the following statement:
"The council of national defense has heretofore
emphasized the necessity of restricting Christmas
buying during the coming fall for certain specific
reasons which he has stated These reasons are
IN brief the necessity for saving labor and material
in the manufacture and sale of Christmas gifts
and ofssaving the transportation and delivery
facilities necessarily involved in the large volume
OF Christmas purchases.
The retail interests represented at the confer
ence have agreed not, to increase thir working
fore by reason of the holiday business over the
average force employed by them throughout the
year and not to increase the normal working hours
OF their force during the Christmas season. They
also agree to use their utmost efforts to confine
Christmas giving, except for young children, to
useful articles and to spread the period for holiday
purchases over the months of October November
and December. In order to relieve the transporta-
ton facilities Of the country from congestion in
the latter half of December, which would be so
hurtfu to the interests of the nation that it can
not be permitted, the retail interests represented
at this hearing have agreed to cooperate further
in the campaign heretofore and now being carried
on under the auspices Of the war industries board
to restrict deliveries and to induce their customers
to carry their own packages wherever possible

TEN NORTH DAKOTA BOYS DIE IN
7 TWODAYS FROM FLU AT CUSTER
Select Hard Hit in Early Ravages of Epidemic at
Michigan Camp-Maady Now Seems to be We'll Under
r. Control.

Battle Creek, Mich. Oct. l0.-Camp
Custer is gaining in it's fight against
Spanish influenza. Today's figures
showed a net reduction Of 500 cases
over the preceding "a hours, though
there were % deaths from pneumonia.
For the first time in several days, the
sick at Camp Custer, where hundreds
/ Of North Dakota boys are being train
ed, numbered below 5000 today "a
to be exact. During the 24.hOur per-
iod, 1,U34 were discharged as cOnval-
esoent and returned to their regi-
ments. At the same time, sos new
cases developed, but they were OF a
mild nature, and the net gain of 500
pleased the medical officers, ~
The past "a hours toll brought the
mum ger of deaths since September rs
to 1870, which. while abnormal for
Camp Custer, is small as compared
with other camps. The death roll will
grow, but it seems certain that fewer
cases will be added to the hospital
list daily from now on Thousands OF
men have not even showed symptoms
Of the malady and all the well ones
are watching their health with a care
seldom found in any army camp.
Ten North Dakota boys have died
within the past 48 hours. They are:
George ,Haider, 18th infantry, St.
Anthony, N. d.; Geo. Leugar, 18th

z- New Cases isolated.
Luck may have helped the success
of the fight against Spanish influenza,
but the hard work of the medical Of.
ficers and their effective quarantine
have been larger factors. Seveal
new methods OF isolation have been
tried and incipient cases have been
discovered in time to ward off seri.
GUS phases.
Bodies or all dead North DakOta
soldiers will be sent to their home
towns Immediately. No bodies are
disposed Of until the relatives are To-
Gated and their wishes learned. In
most cases, however, the home folks
have been notified In time to be with

seminated, when the relatives saw

SPANISH INFLUENZA.

No occasion for panic need be found IN ClIy
Health Officer Strauss order closing all pubic
n]aces in Bismarck, forbidding public meetings
and assemblies and prohibiting the congregation
If children on the Streets Such an order does not
necessarily mean that the Spanish influenza sltu-
alton in this city is so critical as to occasion gen.
eral alarm. The conditions, however, are such as
should inspire wholesome respect for the pre-
cautions which DR.. Strauss wisely has urged
Bismarck was the last large city in North Da-
kota to come under the ban. Until two days ago
the capital was comparatively free from anything
that resembled the epidemic. Then there was
such an outbreak of influenza, of Spanish or other
varieties that medical men of the city, in confer
ence, agreed that quarantine restrictions were ad-
visable, as means Of checking further spread OF
the disease and to aid in it's early eradication
: Bismarck's part is to remain calm, to keep cool,
to watch its health, and to obey to the letter the
orders of the health department..
= No club nor society should think Of holding
meeting while this ban continues; stores and or
fees should see to it that their workers have
plenty of fresh air; sneezers should avoid pubic
places Coughs and colds should be looked after;
children should be kept off the streets and care
fulySwatched for symptoms Of the plague. Ply
sicians should be consulted upon the first appear
ance of anything that resembles Influenza l.
Spanish influenza is not necessarily fatal but it
is dangerous and most decidedly facilitating. II
you can avoid it, that is the thing to do. Some
simple rules for guarding against influenza are
given by Surgeon General Rupert Blue, U. S. A.,
as follows:
Keep the body strong by proper proportion
of work. play; rest, that there may be vitality to
fight against disease germs.
Keep the body we'll clothed; eat sufficient
wholesome and properly selected food
prevent ovefcrowding at home and in the Of
flee. Attempt not to inhale directly the air
breathed by another person.
ESPECIALLY beware Of the person who coughs
or sneezes without covering his mouth or nose
Keep out of crowds and stuffy places. Spend as
much time out of doors as possible" ''T'
