you denominate the man precisely.
He is a Jew who makes trousers.
Mr.. EmanuePs argument that "Jew"
is used as an adjective by anti
Semitic people, and therefore is
reprehensible in anyone, is of the
shallowest. The anti-Semitic en-
ploy it because such a term as, say,
o ew agent" seems harsher, and be-
cause they know how Jews who de-
sire to hide or veil their origin dis
like being called badly Jews-how
they prefer belonging to the Jewish
people" or of the Jewish persua-
sion" or some such quasi-camou-
hage. We therefore only play up to
the anti-Semitic in squirming, as
does Mr.. Emanuel, because someone
wrote "Jew agent" instead of "agent
Of the Jewish persuasion," or some
other like roundabout expression.

was for a Jewish purpose. They
were not, therefore, Jewish agents.
But they were 1--WE must assume)
Jews, and hence it is quite correct
to call them Jew agents, which
means, put briefly, agents who were
Jews.
1t is really Mr. Emanuel who ia
yours the ignorant and the vulgar by
insisting that Jewish shall refer to
the person doing a thing and not
to the act done, it's purpose, it's OBJ
ject, or so forth and we see that
some American papers, notably that
publication distinguished for it's
classic English style, the Hebrew
Standard, are very angry at the use
by us of the term "Jew Soldiers.'
But those words precisely express
the fact. The men referred to are
not Jewish soldiers, they are soldiers
of the country to which they belong
and to which they do duty-English
soldiers, German soldiers, American
soldiers, French, Italian, or what
not. If man enlists in, say, the
British Army, he becomes a British
soldier, that is to say he is soldier
who is defending British interests,
fighting British fights and SO forth,
and none of the activities of the SOL
der therein involved are essentially
Jewish. He is not in Jewish Army,
he is not defending Jewish interests
nor fighting Jewish fights, however,
synpathetically he may, as Jew,
look upon all he is asked or rather
commanded to do. Yet he remains
a Jew, and if we wish to distinguish
him as Jew from non-Jewish SOL
diers, there is nothing for it in logic
or sense than to call him a Jew
soldier-that is a soldier who is a
Jew.
The Hebrew Standard writing on
the topic invokes "the good name of
our people" in it's objection to the
word "Jew" as an adjective. But
it is precisely in our anxiety for the
good name" of Judaism that we
prefer to diferentiate between activi-
ties that are Jewish because Of their
motive or purpose, and those that
are merely under taken by Jews.
The agents referred to by the Globe
writer is a case in point.
A rule of the sort to- be sound
must apply to all cases. Trouser-

which he had sent for publication in
the Globe. The letter reads as fol-
lows
TO THE EDITOR OF THE
"GLOBE."
December Is, 1918.

"GLOBE."
Sir,-I notice the following SEN
tence in your article Of October 21st
on "Austria Nearly Down and Out"
viz, "The peasants steal their own
crops and sell them at exorbitant
prices to rich people, through Jew
agents, and then tell the authorities
that their crops have been stolen"
Should not the writer of that arti-
Gle be informed that provided it
was necessary to mention a religion
at ally it would have been fairer and
grammatical had the sentence been
worded thus p
"The Christian peasants steal their
own crops and sell them at exorbi
tant prices to rich Christians and
others, through Jewish agents, and
then tell the authorities that their
crops have been stolen.'
The substitution of the noun
"Jew" for it's adjective ''Jewish' is
solely resorted to by either the ignor-
ant, the vulgar, or the despicably
anti-Semtic.
We assume that Our contemporary
did not print Mr.. Enanuel's letter.
But it occurs to us that the writer
did not, for moment, refer to the
religion Of those concerned. Had
he done SO, he assuredly would not
have called peasants who cheat,
Christians, as does Mr. Emanuel
with such genial kindness to the
dominant faith; and it is to be hoped
that he would not have said, as does
Mr.. Emanuel in effect, that agents
who aided and abetted in a fraud
acted in accordance with the teach
ings of Judaism. We are sorry to
note the poor opinion of both reli-
gions that Mr.. Emanuel holds.
With regard to the last sentence Of
his letter, however, the good man
appears to have exploded to such an
extent as to have scattered every
shred of common sense he possesses.
Who, except Mr.. Emanuel, says it
is necessarily ungrammatical to en-
ploy noun as an adjective? Has he
never heard of a world war or a
town mouse or of the Artists Rifle
Corps or a dozen other examples
that might be quoted? There
is nothing therefore, inherently
wrong in the employment of Jew"
as denomination The whole ques-
ton is whether so employed it's de-

AUTO MAKERS BUSY
With WORK FOR WAR

In connection with the war con-
tracts, Joseph Trew, of the Trew
Motor Company, local distributors OF
the REQ motor car. said yesterday:
For one thing, the government-and
properly, we believe-insisted on all
automobile manufacturers taking on
war contracts. On the average, this
takes 30 per cent of the capacity of
AL automobile plants There's a prev
alcnt idea that the manufacturers
were eager for such contracts. as a
matter OF fact, nothing could be fur
ther from the truth. We know of not
one established manufacturer who
wouldn't have declined any such work
except that he felt it his patriotic duty
10 take it on. When you consider il
means temporarily stopping his plant!
changing over equipment and buying
new. toOling up for new work with
which he is totally unfamiliar. you
will see that in nine cases out Of ten
he cannot hope to make a profit.
There are two reasons-and only
two-why the leading automobile
manufacturers have taken on govern
ment work.
First, as patriotic duty-the desire
to help in every way possible to win
the war. They found themselves, with
their up-to-date methods, their won
derful efficiency. the precision of the
work they had been accustomed to do,
the Standardization and interchange
ability of parts which the automobile
industry had evolved, and, finally, the
highly specialized machines and rapid
reproductive methods, best suited of
all industries to help in this crisis.
why, but for the automobile in
dustry, our aeroplane program would
be impossible; 50 would our tractor
program. our ambulance service. and
much OF our shipbuilding and muni-
tionS plan. The other reason was that
the government insisted on the auto
mobile manufacturer devoting at least
a. per cent OF. his capacity to United
States work, on penalty Of shutting
OF his supply Of steel. copper, rubber,
etc, and his railway shipping faciIi-
ties. So you Sc it wasn't hope of big
profits. but a combination Of neces-
sity and patriotism that caused them
to greatly reduce automobile manu-
facture and take on Government con-
tracts. The net result will be a Sc
Tious shortage Of both automobiles and
motor trucks-and a part of those that
are made the government will also

MOTOR TRUCK TEST
IN HANDS OF, USER
SeIden Distributor Leaves Praise TO
the Public.

The complete line Of selden trucks

Motor Company. The varied line in
cludes one-ton worm drive, one-ton
internal drive, two-ton worm drive.
two-ton internal drive. three and a
half-ton worm drive and fiye-ton

Mr.. Deneane had the following to
say regarding the Selden trucks:
The real test of any motor truck
is the test in the hands of the user.
However well the manufacturer may
construct the truck, and however high
the quality of the materials he puts
into it-after all. 1t is what the user
can accomplish with the truck which
the manufacturer considers perfec-
ton that really speaks for or against
il.
For that reason I shall not at
temp to dwell at length on the mer-
its of Selden In Built Quality
trucks. Rather do 1 prefer to let
Selden users speak-tell in their own
words just what Selden trucks are
doing for them day after day-year
after year-and what 1t Is costing
them to accomplish such results.
For our part, we will simply say
that Selden trucks are constructed
throughout of standard parts of the
highest grade-bigger and stronger
parts than are ordinarily built into
motor trucks of the same rated ca
pacity. Expert engineers and expert
mechanics spare neither time nor
cost in their efforts to build into
Selden trucks all the service they
will ever need.
THE first Selden trucks that were
built are still in use-so that the ac-
tual life of Selden Is yet to be de-

with the worn teeth does not mesh
properly with the new. When you
are in neutral there is no loud or

and therefore the noise is mostly
eliminated. In lining up your rear

Short Circuits May
Cause Sudden Stops

1t happens on occasions that the en-
gine will stop suddenly for no appar-
ent reason and then start up again,
just as suddenly. This may occur in
passing over a particularly rough
piece, Of road. The veteran motorist
.sniIl at once diagnose the trouble as
an Intermittent short circuit some
where in the ignition line. An in
spection Of the wires under the coyI
board may show that some poorly in
sulffed lighting wire has been jounced

milton wires from the switch.
