A BUSINESS MANS SERMON

On Monday noon the members Of the local COM
mittee to solicit subscriptions for the Victory Loan
listened to an address which was in many ways note
worthy. 1t was delivered by Henry Deutsch, a Mime
apolis attorney. who was sent here by the chairman OF
the Ninth district loan committee to present to the
Grand Forks committee a message of instruction and in
spiration. Mr.. Deutsch performed his work most ably
and he left an impression that will not soon be cfaced.
Mr.. Deutsch is of foreign parentage, his father hav-
ing been born in Hungary and his mother in Germany.
German was the language of his childhood. and in the
home Of his parents he lived in an atmosphere marked
byfa love for the homely traditions of the plain people
in the old home land. With this background MIR.
Deutsch is American to his very finger tips. In his home
city, Minneapolis, he has performed splendid service
in connection with the effective teaching of the Ameri-
can language and American ideals in the public schools.
While America in general hestated on the verge of the
war, Mr.. Deutsch had not a moments hesitation after
German armies set their feet upon the soil Of Belgium.
He.believed then, as many Americans have come to be-
leye since, that then was the time for an American
protest, and if need be for America to enter the war.
It - needless to say that the man who at that early stag
Of the great conflict took such a decided and positive
stand has during the months that have followed been
"a vigorous worker for the success of the Allied arms in
the, war. and his work now in connection with this loan
is merely an indication Of what he has done so enec-
lively in the past.
4g But the feature Of the address which The Herald
cOnsiders worthy Of special mention is the pronounced
and reverent religious spirit which prevailed it. The
address was one delivered by a business man to business
men y was on q business subject. It was on a week
days when men are popularly supposed to be absorbed in
baiainess. yet time after time did the speaker earnestly
an4ss impressiyely repeat with a readiness which must

sxAalissn from the lips Of the CHEAT Master Of men, Jesus
Gkstst, u which havs been embodied in the gospels re-
stsf9ag to His history. The fact that those. present were

true religious spirit the basis of All right business rela-
lions but that this fact is recognized by business men
themselves. when the conditions are such that the sub
ject is properly placed before them. There can be no
doubt that in the modern conception of things the spirit
that underlies the Golden Rule and the Sermon on the
Mount receives a wider recognition from business men
often unconnected with any church organization than is
popularity supposed.

ARTICLE x

Article X Of the constitution of the league OF ma
tons, as drafted. reads as follows:
The high contracting parties shall under
take to respect and preserve as against exter-
nal aggression the territorial integrity and ex-
listing political independence of all states
members Of the league. In case of any such
aggression or in case of any threat or danger
of such aggression the executive council shall
advise upon the means by which the obligation
shall be fulfilled.
That article seems to state quite clearly that the
nations which subscribe. to the covenant agree to de-
fend each other against attack from without. Nothing
is said about changes originating from within, or about
the peaceful acquisition of territory or the peaceful
merging of one political entity into another.
On what basis, therefore, objection to this article
is founded, is decidedly not clear. Nor are those who
disapprove of the article agreed. Mr.. Hughes, for in
stance. would eliminate the article altogether as he con-
siders it a trouble breeder. Mr.. Root, on the contrary,
believes its inclusion in the covenant to be both wise and
necessary, especially for the time being. He would leave
the article as it is, except that he would provide that
after five years any nation may withdraw from this part
of the agreement on giving one years notice. When
two men, even of such eminence as these, disagree on
such an important point, it is manifest that one of them
must be mistaken.
1t would be interesting to have presented by some
one who objects to this article a concrete case of a rea-
sonable nature which might occur under this provision
in which the provision would work mischief. From
this point of view the case seems very simple. Suppose
that Denmark became a member of the league, as she
will. Suppose that Germany should seize a strip OF
Danish territory. That would be a violation of the ter.
ritorial integrity of Denmark. Or suppose that Ger
many. by threat to use force, should seek to compeI
Denmark to concede to Germany the right to review or
veto certain features of Danish legislation. That would
a be a violation of Danish political independence. II
either case every member Of the league would b
pledged to defend Denmark against the aggressor. Thu
executive council to advise" but not to command as tt
1.-THE means to be used. That seems perfectly fair ant
reasonable. And it is cases of this kind, and, appar
emily, cases of this kind only. that come within the pur
view Of Article X.
If Denmark and Germany should agree on the pur
chase by Germany of a strip of Danish territory, or if
agreeably to both parties, Denmark should seek to joir
a German federation, while the league might feel con
Germ, and might deem it necessary to take action, &C
ton would certainly not be called for under Article X
which deals specifically and only with cases of "exter
