London's New Maccabeans'

From The Manchester Guardian
East End Jcwry had its own military
pageant this morning, when mon of the
'New Maccabeans'- Jewish battalion OF
the Royal Fusiliers-. marched down White
chapel. The idea represented by the forroa-
ton Of an exclusively Jewish regiment has
had to struggle nard and ,ong before it could
emerge through Official discouragement.
Still. the outcome is : body Of soldiers
which, as every one who has seen them in
training knows, is sple"dd in spirit and
efficiency.
Al then head to-day rode Colonel Patter-
son--an lrishman with deep knowledge Of
jewish psychology and iraditons, who or
ganized that picturesque body of adventur-

Saving the Pieces of Russia

There is one simple fact which it is we'll
to consider before we become unduly
alarmed over the possibility of japanese
occupation of Eastern Siberia
This is that TIE "Russia" which we
knew has ceased to exist. The Russian
Empire is dismembered.
AS we have already pointed out, the
Germans now occupy the most highly de-
veloped part of Russia on the industrial
side--that is, Poland and the territories
Of the west. In the south the Ukraine
has become independent and the territory
to the east Of that is held by the Cossacks
and other peoples under apparently
autonomous rule
All that is left of the great Russian
bugbear is the vast central plain and the
frozen regions Of the north And Siberia
l What feeble power the Bolshcvik gov
crnment still exercises is largely confined
TO Petrograd, Moscow and the northern
cities. And even this remnant of author
ity may at any time be swept away either
by the German invasion or by internal
revolt.

Stop While 1t Tastes Good
A Way to Save the Food Americans
Eat Excessively

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Nh Hoover says that since wheat and
meat saving has bccn the watchword the
American people eating o per cent more
food than before the saving commenced He
evidently doesn't care how often nor how
much we eat if wo leave out wheat beef,
pork and mutton. don't know if his asser-
ton that VIC have increased our swal-
lowngs is true or not, but | do know that
each mothers son OF us eats twire as much
as he needs, and if we woud all curtail
our dcvourings by so per cent the cheaper
food problem would be solved.
The human system will assimiate Ger
tain necessary amount of protein fat, starch,
etc All beyond that amount s worse than
wasted. Entirely aside from the matter of
food saving in the interest Of cheaper liv-
ing is the question of health. The great
mass of American mankind suffers more or
less from Indigestion caused by the daily
ovcrloadinStof the overworkod stomach. This
wonderful organ must be always ready at
any time of day night TO receive and

nARIS, Feb. 26.-M. Barres reveals in the
4 echo dc Paris" the existence of a
strictly confidential memorandum adj
dressed to the Berlin government by the
Association of German Iron and Steel In
dustrialists" and the "Association Of Ger
man Metallurgists"
Under the title "For the Annexation of
Mining Basins of French Lorraipo," NJ.
Barres observes that this document shows, if
it is necessary, the Importance of the Lcr.
rane basin in the war Of to-day and for .hc
future war
Speaking of that part of the basin which
is situated in the annexed part of Lor-
raine, Germany has found there a supply
sufficient to satisfy the formidable needs of
iron in modern warfare, and one can obtain
an idea Of it if one remembers that the
Luxembourg Lorraine basin yielded in 1913
more than throefourths Of the total prod
uct of Germany
AS to the French Briey-Longwy basin, the
memorandum declares as follows:
"Thc mines which we have begun to ex-
plot in French Lorraine brought us in the
course of the year 1917 enough iron to sat
sfy all the needs of our artillery"
If Germany did not have in her possession
all of the Lorraine basin she would be un-
able to continue the war. The memorandum
states this openly:
"Fortunately, the French have not sue
cecded in destroying the organization of the
districts situated on both sides of the Franco
German frontiers; without that our artil-
lery could not be supplied with munitions
and the fate of the war would be decided in
a few months to our disadvantage. Without
doubt Germany would have had to evacuate
the great territories on the left bank of the
Rhine and would have lost, together with
her principal beds of iron ore in the Ior-
raine basin, also one of the most significant

Gray Room

Although you sit in a room that is gray,
Except for the silver

Or lift one of the green beads

Or gaze at your green fan

This is how the wind shifts:
Like the thoughts of an old human,
Who still thinks eagerly
And dcspnrngly.
The wind shifts like this
Like human without illusions,
Who still feels irrational things within her.
The wind shifts like this
Like humans approaching proudly,
Like humans approaching angrly.

In Ink of India and Gold

A windlcss cbon night
White poppies spill their fragrance through
the silence.
The sky is gold;
The sky is hard and pure and clear.
The palid petals drift and drift like snow;
A god with beauty wounded bleeds and dies
Where lies this land, this land of spectral
gold
With sullen, swinging shadows deeper hued
Whereon twist purple roads in fading curves
With wild, black burrows where a chariot
And left an angry, splendid resonance?
Here now two lonely peacocks, white as death,
Fight on and on within the golden night;
They splash the shadows with their pink,
starred feet.

The Unquict

He thought to solve
The unquiet of his heart
in tho stiffness of solitude,
But the ticking of the clock
Penetrated the silence;
Then song-sparrows sang
In the evergrcens at his window;
And there came the ache
OF q heavily loaded wagon
Straining
Up the hill;
And the voices Of things in his room
Clamorcd,
Till he sought the noise of the city
For its silence.

pany one Of the subsidiaries Of the

1t will give five per cent Of its total
sales from May 10 the end Of the

movement.
The company has seventy stations
scattered throughout the country and
the plan is 10 hand over TO the Red
Cross organization at each OF these sta
tions the amount earned there so that
local interest in the unusual profit
sharing plan may be stimulated. No
tice OF the company's intention was
not given until the Liberty Loan drive
was over. but on Saturday telegraphic
orders were sent to all stations direct
ins an intensive campaign so that these
Red Cross donations may be made in
substantial amounts
