The Treasury Department. in CO.
operation with the United States Blu.
reau Of Education, will request every
school district in the United States
city. town and countryside-to arrange
for the celebration Of the discovery Of
America with an appropriate harvest
home festival.
There is," says Mr.. Franklin, "a
logical unity between both Of these
ideas and the Liberty Loan. When the
people Of community recount the
fruits Of their summers labor they
will naturally ask themselves what
share Of them they ought to invest In
Liberty Bonds. When they come to
realize what the discovery Of America
has meant to them personally, what 1t
has meant for the cause of freedom
and democracy. what 1t will mean for
the salvation OF the world in the pres
ent world tragedy. when they begin to
feel ali this they mus. of necessity say
this is worth investing in. worth fight
ing for. worth making any sacrifice

ITO create this state of mind is the
purpose Of celebrating the discovery
OF America. 1t is our hope that the
nationwide celebration will stir such
enthusiasm over Americas mission in
the world as to enable each commun.
ity to reach at least its quota by that
day. Let every local community make
this its goal and on Liberty Day an
nounce the achievement and rejoice !
over it.
THE Bureau Of Education. at the /
request of the Treasury Department,
Is preparing suggestions for harvest
home festival celebration and has the !
facilities for mailing them to almost
every one of the 100000 schools in
the United States.
THE harvest home festival Is our
earliest form of American celebration,
before cities were built and it would
be a distinct gain to carry the idea
over into city life. The characteristic
harvest Of the city is not fruit or grain,
but the products of social life like
arts, music, architecture
City and country communities will OF
curse celebrate the day each after its
OWN fashion. but the harvest home
dea applies equally to both. What
ever community's particular type Of
product may be, on Liberty Day it's
aim should be to reap harvest of
.ollars for democracy. On this day

ReL enchment at Oncei

From Washington arrives the warn
ing that the end of the war will ut
bring down the enormous taxes for q

sage is not the product of the clear
intellect and the sound sense Of the
Secretary of the Treasury, who knows
where the war money has been going
and where 1t would have continued to
so but for the armistlce.
The very biggest part of the war
expenditures can be chopped off i'm

propose that the Government shall 60

come so accustomed to thinking III
billions for demolition during the war
that 1t must think only in billions for

Bavaria.

The earlier reports Of the estab-
lishment Of Bavarian republic
through the proclamation Of an as
sembly Of the. people at Munich are
confirmed. To these reports are
added the further details that the
disorder has subsidized and that the
new form Of government has been
accepted throughout the country.
In the swift sweeping away Of
crowns and thrones to make kaiser
less, kingfess Germany, Bavaria took
the lead. To the remainder of Ger
many nothing could have been more
significant than a Bavarian procla-
nation Of republican form of gov
eminent, Of the end of the domina-
ton Of Prussianism. and Of the awe
Of Hohenzollernism,. Bavaria was
the largest and strongest Of the South
German States, and next to Prussia
the most powerful member of the
German confederation. Its with
drawal as part Of this autocracy
was an omen of the crumbling of the
German Empire.
There must have been to the Bava-
rians certain grim satisfaction in
being the first to strike blow against
the machine built up for securing the
dominance of Prussia and the Hohen-
zollern family over the German peo-
pie. The Bavarians were dragged
into the confederation after they had
been despoiled of much of their
Rhineland possessions. They had
never endured with good grace the
political domination Of Berlin and
they bitterly resented the Prussian
assumption Of superiority in culture
and art.
The Bavarians would hardly seem
n people to become followers or
supporters Of Bolshevikism. The peo-
pie Of northern Bavaria are agrlcul-
turists; those Of the south largely
mountaineers, whose homes and
lands have descended from genera
lions of mountain jewellers. They
have had, so far as the Bavarian rule
itself is concerned. as much. If not
more, freedom Of government than
any other people Of the German En-
plre. Tradition and custom is espe-
cially strong with the Bavarians.
What might represent more COM
pletely than anything else their ma
tional dream would be the restora-
ton Of their State to its former po-
sition and complete independence
Of North German domination. How
much Of this dream they may realize
Is not yet evident further than that
they are rid Of the Hohenzollern
lordshlp and the haunting fear Of be-
Ing Prussianized.

British Coroner and Former Ger.
man b alseH.

1t is proper now to recall a cir
cumstance of criminal law relating to
the first murders of civilians, men,
women and children, on British soil
by the overhead assassins In the yep
pelins ordered to the deed by the
German High Command.
1t will be remembered that In many
instances, II not In all such cases,
the coroner and his jury conducting
the regular inquest over the bodies Of
the Innocent victims returned verdlcts

eponsible for murder. as accessory be-
fore the crime. His guilt received no
treatment In the British coroner's
court different from that which it
would have met If he had been WILL

In the view Of the British civil law,

tinction between an Emperor on a

or dealing death by violence. There
was and could be no question Of
merely military responsibility. There
was and could be no question of the

was crime. This was murder, and
Coroner's Quest law ran.
That is why we are wondering this
morning whether. even though the ex-
tradition treaty between Great Brit
ain and Holland may not be of imme-
diate interest to this criminal fugl-
tive In Dutch territory, the extradi-
ton treaty between Germany and
Holland might not become a matter
Of concern to him If British justice
should demand his trial In the juris-
diction where the crimes for which

In this lies the profound meaning
Of the unprecedented display Of re-
joicing we witnessed yesterday. The
causes behind 1t were not to be OBJ
scured by the oddities. the grotesque
antics, with which men and women
sought to hide their deeper emotions
and make known their happiness.
Here was no shallow longing for

New Years Eve abandonment Of con-
ventional restraint for the mere sake
Of pleasure. Within the breasts Of
these paraders. these aimless wander
ers Of the streets, there lay feeling
Of great gratitude, gratitude SO over

long dwarfed by their environment,
handicapped by the repression Of i'm

impose upon them, have not the
power or Imagination to set 1t forth

tallize this noble Joy In enduring

liant pigments; but though genius
blaze with the light Of inspiration,
1t will not denote more Of sincerity
than these unstudied and sometimes
startling manifestations Of this fine
and memorable day. =
These uncounted hosts that trod
the streets from sunup to far into
the night, recorded. conscious under
standing Of national unity that COM
mon purpose. common sacrifice and
common triumph have brought to
all Of us. 1t has been present, the
animating spirit Of American insti-
tutions, since the civil war. but with
fat and peaceful years the realiza-
tion Of 1t became dulled. Only
common danger could bring to our
hearts and minds n quick and domi-
mating comprehension Of It. That
danger came; the response was not
delayed. In that response was no
hesitation, no faltering, and Its glori-
GUS fruit was garnered on the battle
fields of France.

Herr BALM.

Almost as well known In New York
as in Hamburg and Berlin, ALBERT
BALLIN typified the energy and gen.
ius which built up by legitimate en-
terprise the great power In the
worlds commerce that Germany was
when the war began.
He was the Kaiser's personal friend
and his partner in shipowning. He
had done as much as any one man
to give Germany that place in the
sun with which milltarism and dy-
nastlc ambition was not content. And
he seems to have foreseen more
clearly than any other man in the
Kaiser's circle the inevitable result
Of the mad policy which sank the
Lusitanla and brought America into
the fight. Even in the last days pre-
ceding the downfall Herr BALLrN was
reported as working with some of the
international bankers to bring about
the abdication Of his friend for the
sake of Germany's future.
In this time of astounding events
and contrasts, what IL more impress
sive than the coincidence of destiny
by which death took ALBERT BALM
on the very day of the Kaiser's abdi-
cation and within few hours of the
Kaiser's ignominious flight from the
Germany he ruined? The two men,
we say, typlfy what the downfallen
empire might have been and is; and
Of the two fates, how much happier
that of the man who foresaw!
