Meaning of ZiOnism.

Omaha, Feb. 21.-To the Editor of
The Bee: Recently the Kansas City
Star printed a statement by DR.. Sam
uel Schulman that majority of
Jewish peoples here and everywhere
did not desire a Jewish homeland,
which is not correct.
The Zionists' hope for Jewish
commonwealth is to settle the ever
lasting Jewish question for all time
and to provide a refuge for all home
less Jewish people, where they can
live in peace. The so-called equal
right promise has no value. Its
meaning was best illustrated by the
Roumanian guarantee violation, the
Polish massacres in Lemberg and in
the very recent pogroms in Russia.
Without a homeland the Jewish
people always will be a prey to po-
litical aspirants and religious fanat-
les, as in the past, ever since Rome
conquered the world and destroyed
the small nations. All Jewish people
pray for the restoration of Zion. On
every page of every prayer book
there is a special prayer for 1t, with
the exception of the reformed sect
whom Doctor Schulman represents.
Their number is less than half Of l
per cent OF the Jewish population.
The Christian people are as much in
terested in the restoration of Pales-
tine as they were in the restoration
of Belgium.
The 500, 900, 900 Christians will not
allow more crime to be committed
in their name. The Christian reli-
gion never did permit such crime

RIGHT TO THE POINT

Minneapolis Tribune: It seems to
simmer down to this-that Germany
has enough men for a new army, but
not enough pretzels to back them up.
Baltimore American: No matter
how mighty the sum raised by taxing
the people, congress can be relied
upon to spend every cent of it, and
more.
Washington Post: The report that
Trotzky has thrown off his red neck
tie is one of the most sinister evil
dences of reaction that have develop
ed in poor old Europe.
st. Louis Globe Democrat: Herbert
Hoover is in a going business. His
vocation may be permanent. The
world must always eat; and it seems
that it is going to eat by precept
hereafter.
Brooklyn Eagle: The anxiety of
Secretary of the Treasury Glass to
dodge the work of enforcing prohibit
ton is natural enough. The internal
Revenue department can't collect in
come taxes and meanwhile do police
duty for the states under any or
ganization easily conceivable.
New York World: Having heard
directly and emphatically from the
storekeepers of the country respect
ing the injustice of the luxury taxes
on wearing apparel. Chairman
Kitchin plans to seoGre their immed-
late repeal. After all, the plain

adays so plain in their attire as they
were once supposed to be, and luxury
taxes include many present-day ne
| cessities of apparel.

Hoover'S Reply TO Heney

A confidential report made to the president
last September by Food Administrator Hoover,
now made public, throws a great light upon re-
cent activities of Francis ]. Heney and various
congressional committees investigating the Chi
cago packers. If, aside from campaign in
favor of government ownership, these proceed
ings have had any other purpose than to prove
collision between the food administration and
the meat monopoly, there has been no evidence
of it.
Mr. Hoover addressed himself to war condi-
tions. Mr.. Heney has been celebrating all the
controversies and issues of peace-past, present
and future Charged with the responsibility of
feeding the nations associated with us in war
against autocracy, Mr.. Hoover opposed govern
mental violence in the matter of the packers.
They were under national regulation and ma
tional taxation and they were performing a
necessary war service. If regulation failed in
any respect it could be strengthened. If there
was profteering, so also there was the power
to increase taxation.
The federal trade commission, of which Mr.
Heney was counsel for time, was created to
pass upon Just such conditions. 1t was expected
to be body devoted to the Interpretation OF
law and the instruction of business men who
might be in conflict with it. Instead OF that, II
has become the hercest of prosecutors outside
of the courts; it has urged upon government a
colossal scheme of national ownership OF food
industries and it has remained in the back
ground while Mr.. Heney, in its name, has as
sailed Mr.. Hoover and the packers alike.
Not a word appears in anything written by
Mr. Hoover showing either ignorance of OF
sympathy with the practices of the meat trust
He was using the meat trust to win the war
and he was honest enough to testify to its Ell
ficient cooperation, leaving the questions OF
peace to be settled after the peace. In war as
in peace, the federal trade commission and Mr.
Heney seem to have sought the disruption of ar
industry upon which, whether lawful or unlaw-
full, the civilized world is depending and must

AIMED AT OMAHA.

York News-Times: The Omaha
Bee says optimism is on tap in 0ma-
ha every day. 1t used to be diff
ferent.
Harvard Courier: The chief of
police in Omaha says that city is
not experiencing a wave of crime.
Evidently automobile stealing, boot
logging and other forms of cussed-
ness are only a normal condition for
the big city on the Missouri.
Hastings Tribune: According to
the annual report OF the Douglas
county probation officer boys are
getting better and girls are be-
coming more incorrigible. But then
Omaha is the largest part of Doug
las county.
Kearney Hub: Omaha real es-
tate men (realtors) are Fronting an
extensive BODYBUILDING scheme, and
have nearly 100 new dwelling houses
under construction, with double that
number in prospect, costing an aver
age of $4,000 apiece. This seemingly
casual item should cause smaller
cities to sit up and take notice.
York News-Times: The authori-
ties in Omaha have stopped the I'M
lawful and inhumane practice of ar
resting women of the STREETS and
throwing them in the detention
home without any sort of hearing
in court. There are numerous in
stances where women who were not
really of the sort who are presumed
to be detained at the home, have
been sent there and were unable to
get any kind of a hearing in court
The authorities have decided that NO
woman is to be sent to the deten-
ton home hereafter unless she has
hearing in court and adjudged a
proper subject for detention at the
home.

partisanshin and Peace Program.

Much beating of the tom-tom and chewing
of soap is in progress in the council tepee of
the Unwashed. Their sachems are making
medicine, and their braves are dancing,
preparatory to taking the war TRAIL or some
thing They see a lot OF things, especially
buwark of stalwart partisanship stretched
across the path along which their big chief has
sauntered so gaily in the last few weeks, dur
ing which time he has gathered many trophies
from the capitals of Europe and such garlands
of praise as might have bowed even the stiff
and Sturdy neck of Julius Caesar. But the
raucous chorus that accompanies the drubbng
OF the drums does not convince
In plain words the making of peace is not
partisan affair, nor is it the meritorious
privilege of particular group amy more than
was the making of war. 1t was the American
people that went to war, not the president nor
the democratic party And whatever peace is
finally concluded must be set up in the name of
the American people. That is the point our
democratic brethren are prone to forget in their
zeal to sound the praise of their party's head.
1t is all very well for the chairman (by right
of seniority of the senates committee on for
egn relations to disguise his personal antipathy
and appear at the White House luncheon, if he
wishes He has made similar sacrifice on
other occasions. But he has no right to call
into question the motives of hgh-minded sem
ators who decline to stultify themselves in adj
vance by participating in a confidential confer
ence when they know they will oppose its pur-
pose in public.
Nor does all opposition to the proposed
League of Nations come out of republican
councils. Much of it arises among an inAuen-
tial circle Of democrats, to appease whom the
president is now exerting his utmost of personal
power. Peace is not party question in
America
