GOVERNORS
PROCLAMATION!

Governor \ o. Stanley has issued
the following proclamation from his
office:
"TO THE PEOPLE or KENTUC-
KY, GREETINGS:
Whereas, the rccedng armies Of
the Central Powers have left IN their
wake indescribablc scenes Of suffering
and privation, torture, famine and
death, our duty to the oppressed and
enslaved people Of the Old World is
only half finished when the invader Is
driven from the borders Of these suf-
fering lands. II is a pleasant ana
Christian duty TO minister 10 the
wants Of those whom we have made
free
The boon Of freedom itself can
not save the starving from death, or
the naked from the winds Of winter.
or house the homeless.
To-day upon the Eastern front
there are untold millions Of men.
women, and children Of the Jewish
race who are in the direct need of N,
simplest necessities Of life and unless
they find succor here and find il with
out delay, these war sufferers will
sink forever under the burdens OF
want and oppression, torture and out
rage, which no tongue can tell or pen
portray.
ITO the aid Of these victims Of
brutality the Kentucky Division of
the Ame.can Jewish Relief Commit
tee has determined to carry on cam
paign for the raising of funds.
Therefore, !, A. o. Stanley. Gov
ernor Of Kentucky, issue this proc
lamation setting aside April 9TH to
llth, 1919, as Jewish War Relief
Days in the State of Kentucky.
I'm TESTIMONY whereof. | have
caused these letters to he made pat
ent, and the seal of the Common
wealth to be hereunto affixed. Done
at Frankfort, the twenty fourth day
OF March, in the Year of our Lord one
thousand nine hundred and nineteen.
and IN the one hundred and twenty
seventh year of the Commonwealth"
A. o. STANLEY,
Governor of Kentucky.

JOBS.

Returning soldiers can't get
jobs" Some of them can't
certainly.
And there are some jobs that
can't get soldiers. These Jobs
are on the farms.
Twelve months ago the far
mers were wondering how to
get through the year after los
ing the boys. And, by achiev-
ing the impossible, they did.
They say they can't do it
twice. They must have the
boys back. And it seems only
reasonable to release skilled
farm help from the army and
keep those who have no Jobs
waiting for them. No one
could call il favoritism. for 4
farm-hand's Job is not an easy
money proposition. And there
would be no difficulty in pick
ing the men out, as they were
CLASSIFIED according to voca-
tons when the draft took them
away.

THE IMMIGRATION BILL.

Among the bills which failed
to pass in the closing hours OF
the Sixty-Fifth Congress was a
bill restricting immigration foi
the next four years.
The failure to pass this bill
was an unfortunate circum-
stance. immigration into this
country has almost ceased since
the Great War began. If it is
desirable to limit immigration
the present is the time to do so.
1t will occasion less inconven-
fence and create less feeling
than at d period when the i'm
migration tide might be at full
flow.
After war there is always
a time when manufacturing
and commerce refit themselves
to the conditions of peace. At
such a time capital is timid, and
it is only step by step that es-
tablished enterprises broaden
their scope or new ones adj
vance. Over a million young
men are now returning from
France to such conditions as
we have Just described. We
cannot tell whether an thrush
of immigration from Europe
might be probable, or what eff
feet it might have upon this
country. But we do know that
it is our clear duty to protect
our young men against any bad
results which such a possible
influx Of European labor might
cause.
The United States has al
ways been known as the re
fuge of the oppressed of all
nations" BY restricting i'm
migration for time il will not
abandon its principles. 1t is in
the position of a man who has
always been truly hospitable
and has opened his house for
the shelter and comfort of
many people. The time comes
when he wishes to repair and
reft his home, and to study the
possibilities of achieving a
broader usefulness in the fu-
ture. To bring this about he

Amid the discussion of war
indemnities the voice of the
German apologist is uplifted.
We are told that the gastly
catalogue of Germany's crimes
was the fault of the Kaiser and
his immediate encourage. Had
the bulk of the German people
been given voice they would
have forbidden the whole pro-
gram of atrocity.
Two years ago the same
apologist was informing US that
this was not a war of demo-
crazy against despotism, be-
cause the German form of gov
eminent was as representative
as that of any republic. II was
70 quote one of the most loqua-
cious of Germany's defenders.
"a magnificent experiment in
applied socialism.
Now is the time for some ar
fist in word-jugglery to recon-
ellie these two announcements.

We certainly have all of us
excellent reasons for trusting
to Mr.. Hoover's opinions in re-
gard to food. And he has lust
informed US why American
food should be shipped to Ger
many, taking the subject from
nine different points of view.
One of the most practical of
these reasons is that famine
breeds anarchy, and anarchy
is infectious. If hungry Ger
many received the gospel of
Bolshevism, and it spread from
Germany to France and Eng
land, il would be more than
likely to trouble us i'm the Unit
ed States.
Another reason is that Ger
many must have food in order
to get back to production and
have the wherewithal to pay
indemnities.
Mr.. Hoover does not neglect
humanitarian reasons, and he
also says that we have not been
and are not fighting women
and children.

FAITH, HOPE AND CHAk.
ITY-BUT THE GREAT
EST OF THESE is
CHARITY.

IL see before me, stretc hing
mile after mile into the horizon,
the bleak snow-mantled spaces
of war stricken Eastern Eu-
rope. | see the long tragic row
of carts and wagons drawn by
emaciated beasts whose bones
protrude through NANCY skins.
Upon these carts and wagons |
see the tragic remnants of what
was once q home. | see the old
men walking by the side Of the
horse. grandfathers bowed
with physical and mental suf-
fering, and bearing upon their
withered faces the hideous
scars of agony and starvation.
And see the women huddled
among the bundles and bags,
shivering and sobbing. with
their wasted eyes gazing out
upon that God-forsaken end
less freezing plain
But these are the fortunate
ones. Behind them in a long
procession trail those miser-
able creatures who have no
carts. no horses, no bundles
save those upon their back. A
child passes, and | notice that
he leaves behind him in the
snow a bloody little foot print.
Zero and soleless in Russia +.
And so. starving and stagger-
ing, and now and then falling
in the snow drifts, never to rise
again, they plod their hopeless
way from the charred and
desecrated ruins of the only
homes they ever knew

crowd into the streets await
ing their turn TO see their
favorite actors and dramas. In

who made millions because of
the war are eating choice food

perts paid to tickle the palate
of the fastidious. Cocktails

Frances stipulation that the
German territory lying west of
the Rhine be coded TO her
seems to have been turned
down by the peace conference.
If so, the decision is a wise one.
1t is not surprising that
France, embittered for fifty
years by the cession of Alsace-
Lorraine to Germany after the
war of 1871, should now seek a
similar advantage. But the
very fact that the Alsace-Lor-
raine question has been a con-
slant menace to the peace of
Europe shows the futility of
such a step.
Race, religion, language and
national customs form the nat
ural boundaries of countries.
Bismarck himself, shrewd di-
plomat and statesman that he
was, said at the time of the ces-
sion of Alsace-Lorraine, IL do
not like having so many
Trenchmen in our house against
their will" The splendor of
the prize, however, overcame
his better judgment.
Europe will not repeat this
mistake. Placing any consid-
cradle amount of German ter
ritory under the government of
France would be an error
whose correction would be
made some day. in blood and
IRON.

When spring comes we all
feel the influence of the mild
air and sunshine and general
renewal of the year.
Our winter garments and
furnishings seem worn and
heavy and dim, and we long
for the fresh spring dress or
coat, and trim new pumps or
OxfOrCh, and the new hat that
BELTS the season.
And when we look the house
over we see the need of fresh
curtains in this room, "A new

time being.
1t is hoped that when the

it will at once take up the con-
sideration of the immigration
bill which failed of passage or
of a similar one. The present
conditions demand it.

Possibly Will Send Forth Call for

Wearing about as little clothing as
is possible even in the least sophis-
ticated part Of the Philippines, the
Igorrotes Of Bontoc in the mountain
province have little need of sewing;
but Bontoc at last has a sewing ma

seen in Bontoc turned up there re-

In a tug-of-war contest at a local cele-
bration. Never did a crowd of nearly
naked villagers look with more inter
est at a new object of curiosity than
d!a the simple IgoTTotes when the won-
der of the sewing machine was ex-
planned to them; after which the tug
of-war was contested in the vigorous
fashion inherited from generations of
tribal ancestors to whom this simple
exercise had stood as a great tribal
sport. The winning team presumably
carried off the sewing machine, and
one may imagine that the natives are
proud to possess it as a rare and i'm
pressiye curiosity. But the time has
yet to come when a sewing machine
will be Of much practical importance
to the average Igorrote family.
