Mike is a war hero. Deb brought
him from France. He had been a
company mascot, he was wounded,
and was given to Deb by his owner
who died in Deb's car on the road be-

Mikes stock seemed to rise Won

men present, and perhaps in his own.
He was posed on the top step of the

standing eye toward Deb whenever
he heard his name.

SAN DIEGO, Cal, Sept. 21.-
Charges of biased press were made
by Governor Cox of Ohio, Democrat
ic presidential candidate, in address
ing a large audience here yesterday.
"A great many reactionary papers
are not printing the news of the
campaign" Governor Cox asserted.
"They decline to have this case tried
before the jury. Nine tenths of the
newspapers in California do not print
the news"
"One of the deliberate plans of
the Senatorial oligarcy, said Gov
ernor Cox, was to control as many
newspapers as possible"
The general charge was supple
mented by the governor with partic-
ular criticism of newspapers of Pa
cifc Northwest States which he Wis
tied recently, and of California pa
pers. Some of the former, ne said,
did not carry his speech of accept
ance.

rouse the populace against all Jews in

reactionaries in neighboring Hun
gary have given added encouragement
to their Austrian compatriots to in
troduce the same System" in Vienna.
After an anti-Semitic meeting Of
citizens" in the public hall Of the city
council in which German national stu
dents Of both sexes took part, and dur
ing which an appeal was made to all
elements Of the German people TO unite
against the common enemy, the Jews,
who, It was claimed, committed many
ritual murders during the Red rev.
olutions in Russia, Germany and Hun
gary, after thunderous cheers for
Kapp, Horthy and the present Hun
garian government, q horde Of these
students swooped down upon the
Kitchen for Jewish Students" TO ex-
hibit their heroism. Only some twenty
persons were found there and these
were brutally beaten and driven out.
Then the maurauders, unhampered by
any one and encouraged by the mob
outside, smashed all the furniture,
broke the windows, and destroyed all
the cooking utensils. The damage
amounted to over hundred thousand
Kronen, and the kitchen which fed not
only Jewish but also Czechian, Polish,
Ukrainian, and German destitute stu
dents had to be closed temporarily.
Representatives Of the Joint Distribu-
ton Committee which founded and ran
the kitchen Immediately came upon
the scene to take photographs Of the
wreckage. Now the Joint Distribution
Committee through the American
Mission Is demanding q hundred thous-
and kronen indemnity from the Aus
trian government.
That, so to speak, was the first The
role" accomplishment Of the German
nationals. II served as q signal for
others, among which was one to drive
al the Jewish professors and students
from the University. After their first
successful raid, the student mob went

tried to raid the coffee house "Adler"
which Is visited only by Jews, but
they were stopped by the police.
Every Jew or Gentle Of Jewish ap-
pearance, whose misfortune II was
TO come into their path was abused
and beaten.
But that was only the beginning.

from which they drove the Jewish stu
dents, asking every new conner for the
baptismal certificate after the fashion
Of the Budapest students. Their at
tempts to disrupt Professor Tandler's
lecture failed because Of the defense
put up by the Jewish national stu
dents. A very stubborn, heroic fight,
stiffened by their pride in a beloved
teacher of their own blood, was put
up by the Jewish students against the
German nationals. Blood flowed freely
on both sides. In the general confusion
the Germans were not always able to
distinguish between the Jews and 9th
er nationalities. Two Italian students
were dreadfully belabored, and
Czechoslovakian girl student was beat
en- until the blood streamed from her.
Fortunately, German army lieuten-
ant passed by on his horse, saved her
from the cultured" hoodlums and
brought her to the central bureau Of
the Joint Distribution Committee
where the assemblyman, Stricken, hap
pened to be at the time. Putting the
wounded girl under his care, the office
asked him to do his utmost to prevent
the recurrence Of such shameless, bar
barous revelry.
Nor was the forcible expulsion Of
the Jewish students limited to the lee
ture halls. Into the buffet Of the Uni
versity where is located the breakfast
room Of the English Society of
Friends, an institution established by
the British Mission for the benefit Of
all students regardless Of nationality
or religion, a whole horde Of the su-
per-patriots rushed in, and in spite Of
the protests Of the English admins
traitors forced all the Jewish students
both men and women from the place.
A conference Of the Jewish students
was Immediately called to adopt ways
and means Of ending these atrocities,
which sent deputation to convey
their memorandum TO the city council
and city executives. Thee promised
that under no circumstance. would
they allow the excuses Of Budapest
University to be introduced in Vienna.
The University was 20 be closed until
Investigations were to be made, and
for which purpose a conference Of all
superintendent Of high schools and
Of representatives Of the various stu
dent organizations was to bearranged.
Herr Stricken also interceded with the
government and the latter promised
to take serious measures IL necessary
to re-establish peace and order in the
academic life Of the city. In the same
afternoon the Head Of the University
issued declaration that he was clos
ing the University for two days.
The organization Of Jewish students
then sent a statement to its members
that since the University was to be
officially closed, the Jewish students
should patiently await the further de-
DIVISIONS Of the officials. None Of the
Jewish students appeared upon the
campus the following day, much to the
disappointment Of the German nation
ais who gathered In the street near
the university to attack them. But not
finding any Jews to batter, the young
brutes soon found another outlet for
their animal spirits by falling upon
the group Of international socialist
students who were In the neighbor-
hood. As on the previous day, they at
