Philadelphia Feeling Grows
Against Hearst Newspapers
otzens Returning Verdict through Newssands Following
Editorial IN North American Telling How New
York Publisher Showed Pro-Cermanism

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 4.-The feel
ing against Hearst newspapers is daily
becoming stronger in this city. Cit
lzens have started movement to
cause newsdealers to discontinue the
sale of Hearst publications. The coat
lapel buttons, inscribed 81 Do Not Read
Hearst Papers," are seen frequently on
the streets now.
On its editorial page this week "The
Philadelphia North American" pre-
sented the case against Hearst. Citi-
zens are returning their verdict through
the neWsstands.
Text of the Editorial
"The North Americans" editorial
follows:
THE most important and significant
thing done by the New York State
Democratic Convention last week was
not the naming of a candidate for Gov
ernor, to be supported by the organza
tlon at the primary election, but the
recording of blasting Indictment
objected against William Randolph
Hearst as the sentiment Of his party.
"The formal Reputation was pre-
a Hearst representative that the pub
Usher would be a candidate at the
primary, no matter what the choice of
the convention might be. The answer
was passage of q resolution declaring
that the Democrats Of New York re
pudlate every trucker with our cOun-
try's enemies who strives, or has striv-
en-, to extenuate or excuse such crimes
against humanity as the rape of Bel
glum, the sinking of the Lusltanla and
the German policy Of assassination BY
submarines; who seeks or has sought
to SOW dissension among our allies, or
who now seeks to capitalize by election
to public Office the latent treason whose
total annihilation is the most pressing
need of the hour
Based on Hearst's Attitude
"When first offered by Judge Samuel
Seabury, Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor two years ago, the resolution
was held up on point of order; but
mediately the rules were suspended
and the resolution adopted, the vote in
each case being unanlmou
"This extraordiary action was based
upon the attitude and conduct of Mr..
pressed through his newspapers.
Thus he has himself furnished the evil
dence upon which the indictment
framed by his party organization is
| based. The printed record is no vol
luminous that whole pages might be
filed with damaging quotation-The
New York Tribune, indeed, has de
voted many pages to the subject-and
onl a general summarization can be
made here.
MANY Americans who have been in
censed and shocked by the fragrant
course of these journals have been mys-
titled by the failure of the government
to check the systematic rendering o.
aid and comfort to the enemy We
are satisfied that Mr.. Hearst is not al
heart q traitor to the nation; that his
purpose has not been to Sell his coun
try, but to sell newspapers. Not being
hampered by deep convictions or BY
high journalistic and ethical standards
he exploits whatever policies prom Sc
the best results in profits and power
Often supporting good causes, he most

kaiser's Hand, Says Brit
ish Suffragist

BOSTON, Aug. 4.-America cannot
afford single strike of workmen. Mrs.
Emmeline Pankhurst, the famous Eng
lish suFragist who is now devoting
her whole energies to war work. said
at mass meeting on the common here
to-day.
Every strike declared in this coun-
try" she Continued, strengthens the
hands of the German Emperor. Every
hour that worklngmen and women take
away from their tasks to argue over
class distinctions and class rights
makes it so much harder for America
and her Allies TO win this war.
DO not think there is no danger
for you. If you do not help US win
the war, if you do not see it through
to final victory, if you do not make a
peace by which Germany will be TOO
weak to renew this war, then. sooner
or later, your turn Will come"

pcrsistently capitalizes for his papers
the manifold forces of discomfort,
hatred and prejudice. His essential
polcy Is to cultivate the support of
classes and groups whose passions can
be melted and turned to account
Hearst's Object
at is a fair presumption, we think,
that when the war began M Hearst
surveyed the field IN a perfectly cold
olooded way, and shaped his course
upon this principle. He found all the
New FORK newspapers, except his own.
ranged against Germany, and saw an
opportunity to ingratiate himself with
the large German population in the
metropolitan district by giving them
their sole English language paper. He
mad always played for the anti-English
irish element, and the pro- German
Irish group would be a valuable asset,
lie had German printed newspaper to
promote. A multitude of Russian
Jews, of the extreme radical type
which produced Bolshevism, provide d
another promising field Distrust of
Japan IN California could be exploited
hus there were many reasons apart
from pro-German sentiment to inspire
the Hearst decision as matter of
business. And the gains would seem
20 20 a calculating mind to be sure. If
germany won against the Allies, as
Hearst confidently believed she would,
ne would be figure of great influence
ana power in this country; if she lost,
ne would be in position to advocate
an an alliance between Germany and the
United States to resist the aggres-
slons' of Britain, the victor.
MANY Americans are astounded that
man with such record should have
the temerlty even to suggest himself
as candidate for high office, and they
cite the unanimous reputation bv the
Democratic convention to show how
grotesque would be such an ambition
on his part If Hearst were to run he
would receive, nevertheless, large
vote: Every German and pr German
would support him. He would have
the backing Of multitudes of sacifi SITS
who would characteristically ignore tht
fact that he has been the most inAam.
matory Of jingoes. He would have
with him large section Of the Irish
Of the |. w. W. and Bolshevik elements
Of New York. None of these classes
would be influenced by the convention
action.
Influence at Washington
"As a fact. however, when it come:
to party Endorsement Mr.. Hearst car
boast, and does boast, of political ere
