A DANGEROUS IMPUTATIoN.

The situation of the Jewish popu-
latiOns in European continental coun-
tries where the race is more or less
| outside the national political and So
c,al pale, and a sort Of moral ghetto
| is the successor of the old physical
segregation, appears to be precarious.
The condition is formally recognized
by the peace conference which has
constituted u special committee Of ex-
perts to draft treaties with newly or
sanized and as yet imperfeetfy stnbil-
i1ed states with.r-speciai clause Of
obligation for the protection OF mt
Jewish element against unjust dis
examinations and disabilities and the
prosecuting propaganda rhat incites
the populace to race rHpts and the
hideous pogroms.
The most dangerous and ready to
hand propaganda is the imputing OF
Isolshevism to the Jews, and the hat
red which the practices and conse-
U,iencps of that strange moral epidemic
is rapidly spreading broadcast thruout
Russia and Central and Southeastern
Europe, threatens, as reported. some
thing like a great outbreak of anti
Semitic hatred, which unless repress-
cd In time may form u dark chapter
of recrudescent medievalism in the
history of the twentieth century whose
advent was hailed as the dawn of a
rnillennial era for the race.
Anti-Semitism is eagerly exploiting
md exagserating the fact that some
of the leaders of the Bolshevist move
utent are Jews, and the insidious
charge was rife in Berlin when the
mob demanded the blood of Liebknecht
and Rosa Luxembourg.
Even in England and France, those
pioneers In liberation ana for political
and social Justice for tha prosecuted
lace. the ugly whisper associating Boil
shevism with the Jews'is passed about.
1t is stated in the Westminster Ga
zctte:
Much play has been made in Eng.
land and France with the fact that the
leaders of Bolshevism belong to the
Semitic race. In certain other coiin-
tries the words "Bolshevist' and Jew
have become almost interchangeable,
and a keen American observer who has
Just returned from Russia is afraid
above all that if Kolchak or any other
military opponent of the Bolsheviki
triumphed. there would be such a
slaughter of Jews as we have not yet
seen"
If there is real danger of that sort
ip continental countries where the old
anti-Semitism is dormant and only
needs the spark of direct incitcment
to burst into flame again, 1t evidently
lehooves the international powers that
he Mt Paris to remind the new govern
:ncnts of the danger and of their OBJ
legations to civilization in the prem
ises
In the meantime the voice of the
worlds enlightened public opinion
must make itself heard: and n is
wholesome sign that Americans racial
ly related to nations in Europe against
whom charges of anti-Semitic violence
are already lodged angrily resent as
slnnderous such imputations against
their blood kindred in Europe.

its German equivalent of such 1ames

MEMORANDUM or REASONS FOR
PROPOSALS.

The accompanying proposals aim to
secure to the people Jf the newly
created or enlarged States Of Europe.
With adequate constitutional guaran-
ties and the sanction to he afforded by
the League of Nations, the following
lights.
1. Their civil. religious and poll
.ical liberty as Individuals.
9. Their right of organization and
development as national minorities.
3. The attainment or equality of
status for individuals and for nation
al minorities.
l. To secure the first of these
groups Of rights. it is essential that
the Treaty itself shall confer citizen

of the proposals, otherwise as hap
pened in 1878. large masses who are
Justly entitled thereto will be deprived

The history of the treatment of the
Jews In Rumania illustrates this.
For forty years Rumania has delib-
crately ignored the rights which the
Treaty of Berlin sought to bcstow up
on them and during that period she
has persistently added to their bur
dens. Not to exceed 1000 out of her
100000 Jews have thus far received

PRESIDENTS MIND is
STILL OPEN REGARDING
THE DAYLI IGRT MEASURE

Washington, July 11.-Prcsident VIII
son stll had before him today appro-
priation bills passed recently by con
greSs, and it seemed doubtful whether
any of them would be signed this week.

that the measures, carrying appropra-
tons of more than $1,000, 600 deserved
deliberate consideration.
II was indicated at the White House
that the president was devotilg con
siderable attention to the rider on the
agricultural bill repeating the daylight
saving law He has before him many
petitions. some urging that he sign the
bill and others that he veto it. SO far
as could be asoertained the president S
mind still was open.
No appointments for Mr. Wilson had
been made at the White House this
afternoon. However, the president was
holding himself in readiness to meet
the senate foreign relations committee
informally or i'm formal session, and
also to confer with senators who might
desire to discuss the peace treaty.
1t was indicated that the president
had not yet begun preparation of the
address TO be delivered to the senate
when he presents the treaty with
France by which the United States
would go to that republics aid in case
of unproVoked attack by Germany.
Just when the treaty would be sub
mitteG seemed uncertain, but it was
considered likely that this would be
done before Mr.. Wilson started on his
tour of the country.
The presidents itinerary for his
Swing around the circle" remained un-
competed today. 1t was understood
that several itineraries had been sug-
gested.
Accompanied by Mrs. Wilson, the
president spent more than an hour this
forenoon on the golf links at Il country
club near Washington. Returning to
the White House at II o'clock, he went
Immediately to his study and attacked
the mass of official business which
awaited him.
The president has mapped out def
mite program for dealing with the mat
ters before him, and it was said this
would be rigidly adhered to until he
started on his speaking tour On the
advice OF his personal physician, Rear
Admiral Grayson, the president will go
to the golf links every day for eXer-
else. He played today his first game
since his return.
Mr.. Wilson is said to be in excellent
health, but his physician deems ii ad'
visable that he spend as much time as
possible in the open, in preparation Tor
his vigorous speaking tour.
