Importance. As long as our country
concerned itself merely with its own
internal affairs-these affairs were
our very own. It is true that we
have sometimes made efforts to In
terest our Government in the tragic
conditions of the Jews in other lands
and that sometimes we succeeded in
obtaining some aid for them and at
other times,-mere diplomatic prom
ises. All this, however, was done in
the form of sentimental appeal in
the name Of humanity and justice. Of
ten we were told that nothing could
be done since we could not interfere
in the affairs of foreign countries
At present the situation is changed.
Our international relations are now
established with all the peoples of the
world, some Of whom owe to America
their very existence, and others their
gains and aggrandizements. AS mem
bers of the League of Nations each
nation has certain obligations, the
performance of which. the League has
a right to insist upon. In the sep
arate treaties which were made with
Roumania, Poland. CZecho-slovakia,
ETC., there have been inserted special
clauses securing to Jews political and
civil equality and alos certain minor
ity rights. The powers have approx
Ell the Falfour Declaration with ref
erance TIC Palestine and England wilt
no doubt obtain the mandate over it.
All these Jewish ptoh,em, Concern us
worry much and we are interested in !.
them very deeply. NJ country will be !
able to do for the Jews more than /
America. For us Jews, it is of the !
utmost Importance that our next Presi- I
dent be man who. in addition to his !
Americanism. fully understands our !
new international problems and de- !,
mand that the terms of the various 4
treaties be faithfully carried out. A /
president. friendly to the honest de- !
manG1s and aspirations Of the Jews
will be able to do for them more than
any other person on earth.
In weighing carefully the presi- Z
Dental claim Of the various candi-s
dates it would be. well-for the Jews
to seriously consider the international
as we'll as national program of each
nominee. Thus legitimate Jewish in
terests and claims may be served.

Governor Louis F. Hart returned
Sunday from Washington, D. c.,
where he. with State Land Commits
soner Clark V. Savidge, attended a
meeting of the Western Reclamation
association, created last year. at the
conference of Western governors.
The governor appeared we'll satisfied
that congress will eventually take ia
vorable action on the proposed re-

Western states and that this state
will come in for it's full share of the
appropriations.

Making Census of Utilities.

BY direction of Governor Hart a
census of all public utilities of the
state is to be made by the public
service commission. Although the
state laws provide severe penalties
for any person, firm or corporation
which sells gas, water or electricity
without having first filed its rates,
rules and regulations with the COM
mission, it is believed scores of such
utilities in the state are ignoring this
law.

Look here, stranger, Just come here,
And take a look at old Rainier
That mountain owed there, by gosh,
The pride of this great state of Wash
It's just as famed as ancient Alps,
Right here. where Indians gathered
scalps;
Where pioneers cut trails right thro'
To make the way for me and you.
Their trails have blossomed into high
ways
Where touriss praise our pleasant
byways,
Thro' all the state, where joys
abound.
From big wheat fields to Puget
Sound.
From every pleasant highway here
You'll see the towering Mt. Rainier,
And while you look, it seems to say:
"Tll guide you right along the way"
Old pioneers all feel the cheer
OF sunny, snow-capped Mt. Rainier.
No Bible oath would we revere,
Cause we all swear by Mt. Rainier.

MANY UNION MEN
BELONG TO LEGION
STATEMENT OF ATTITUDE To-
WARD ORGANIZED LABOR

Franklin D'Olier. national COM
mander of the American Legion has
issued from national headquarters at
indianapolis the following statement
regarding the attitude of the Amer
lean Legion toward organized labor:
THE attitude of the American
Legion towards organized labor is
exactly the same as its attitude to-
ward all groups of American citizens
who are interested in a square deal
for all, the maintenance of law and
order and the protection of the insti-
buttons handed down to us by our
forefathers.
THE preamble of our Constitution
expresses very clearly the purpose of
the American Legion. and reads as
follows:
For God and country, we asso-
ciate ourselves together for the fol-
lowing purposes: To uphold and de-
fend the Constitution of the United
States of America; to maintain law
and order; to foster and perpetuate
one hundred per cent American
ism; to preserve the memories and
incidents of our association in the
Great War; to inculcate a sense of
individual obligation to the commu-
nifty. state and nation; to combat the
autocracy of both the classes and the
masses; to make right the master of
might, to promote peace and good
will on earth; to safeguard and
transmit to posterity the principles
OF justice. freedom and democracy;
to consecrate and sanctify our COM
radeship by our devotion to mutual
helpfulness.'
"The purpose of the American Lee
/ gion is twO-fOld-service to our
comrades and service to our country.
Under the head of service to our
comrades We will exert all of our in
fiuence and all of our strength to the
end that the ex-service man, especial
ly the disabled man and his depend
ents and the dependents of those who
paid the supreme sacrifice, shall re-
ceive that just and fair treatment
which they have reason to expect
from patriotic and liberal country.
I'm serving our country we shall
endeavor to keep alive that spirit OF
service which induced us all to re-
spond to our country's call in the
time of her need, even to the extent
of being willing to pay the supreme
sacrifice. And this we propose doing
by assisting in the maintenance of a
hundred per cent Americanism based
on fair play and a square deal for all.
"The members of organized labor
are patriotic American citizens and
the members of the American Legion
are patriotic American citizens who
have proven their patriotism and 10y
atty. Consequently, on the purposes
of the American Legion both they
and we are in accord.
Many of our most loyal members
are members of organized labor, and
1t is our hope that we may be able to
convince every ex-service man who
is member of organized labor that
our purposes are the same as loyal
citizens and that every ex-service
man in organized labor will join the
American Legion.
"All ex-service men who are mem
bers of organized labor have proven
their loyalty and their patriotism to
the country and now appreciate their
responsibilities as citizens, and we
therefore hope it will not be long be-
fore they all are active members of
the American Legion"

CONSTANTINE WILL
 RETURN 10 GREECE
PLE6IscITE SHOWS AN OVER WHELMlNG MAJORITY IN
 FAVOR OF HIS RECALL.

Athens, Greece.-The plebiscite held has shown an overwhelming ma jority in favor of the return of for mer King Constantine to the Greek throne.
 In the face of the expressed oppo- sititon of the allied governments, the question was put sQuarely by the peo- pie. In the harbor of Piraeus, the port of Athens, important units of the French and British navies are anchored, ready for any emergency, while five additional British warships are stationed not far distant.
 In political circles it was said the whole situation lay in the hands of Constantine, with any solution pos sible. The Venizelists were forecast ing that Constantine would receive a hearty complimentary vote in the plebiscite, but that he would abdicate in favor of his son, Prince George, Duke of Sparta. The Venizelist or gan, Patria, has demanded Gonstan- tines definite abdication, while other newspapers comment, taking mourn ful note to the effect that the recent allied note means revision of the treaty of Seyres, with the loss to Greece of Smyrna and Thrace.
 While the plebiscite proceeded, the white-haired and wrinkled Premier Rhallis, sufferi( Chg from loss of sleep, struggled in the Foreign Office to formulate note in answer to the allied communication with interrup- tions from every source, due to his slogan:
 This is a democratic government; I receive all callers at all times"
 A joint Franco-British note was received by the government remind ing it that under the agreement of 1897, by which Greece's finances were put under French and British con trcl, the Greek authorities can print no new money.
 Athens is bedecked with the Amer ican and allied flags, and the popu- lace shows no resentment over the al lied note telling of the measures to be taken against Greece.

LAPS STILL PURSUE
 KOREAN OFFENSIVE
WHOLE VILLAGES HAVE BEEN WIPED OUT, ACCORDING
 TO CHINESE

Shanghai. = Japanese soldiers are continuing their wholesale staying of Koreans in the Province of Kirin, Chi nese territory, according to reliable information from the north This ter ritory was invaded some weeks ago when the Japanese alleged that Chi nese bandits had burned her consu- lates and molested her citizens.
 China has been successfully at tempting to have the troops removed.
 "The Japanese army of occupation is behaving the same way as the righteous army whose terrible doings at the time Korea was annexed, shock ed the world" says the Picking g-Tient- sin Times. Whole villages have been wiped out and hundreds, if not thous- ands, of people brutally killed, their bodies being disposed of in such a manner as to indicate a deliberate in tention to outrage the sentiments of the Korean people,
 Tn addition the Japanese are talk ing action to turn this territory, which is a connecting link between Korea and Siberia, into Nipponese prov. ince. According to reliable reports, Japanese civil courts have been estab- 1ished in the Hun Chun, Tungping and Puangho vicinities. Japanese police are everywhere, apparently not to pre-. serve order, but to interfere with Chi. nese police and terrorize the Ko. reans.
 "The Japanese government is now demanding the right to establish spe. cial settlements in China for her sub. jects. Japanese colonists are now pouring in, as they have done in other instances It would seem as if they were engineering another land-grab of Chinese territory and forcing group five of the 21 Japanese demands on the Chinese nation.
 Japan also is demanding the right to send troops into this territory when ever she deems it necessary Such a movement has been suspected for some time, but this is the first actual news of its accomplishment"
