Britons Make Record
in the Voluntary War
Work for Red Cross

London, July 2s-(Correspondence
of the Associated Press).-The war re-
port of the British Red Cross society
which has just been issued is a record
of the greatest voluntary effort in
English history.
The accounts show that the public
subscribed 16.5OO,O0O pounds in cash
and gave over 100000 pounds in
stores. The expenditure included over
5000 1000 for hospitals and stores, and
over 100000 for the transportation
of 100000 sick and wounded.
Grants to postwar schemes for aft
er-care. etc, absorbed 100000 pounds
and the surplus ON June, 1920, was
/, 1,S26,6S0 pounds.
At the time of the armistice the to-
tai staff of the Red Cross at home and
abroad was 9,234. In addition, there
were 10000 auxiliary helpers, $4,000
whom were women.
Owing to the principal workers Civ
ing their services free, the entire cost
of administration was less than three
and one-half per cent of the income.

BRAZIL PRESIDENT
BELIEVES LEAGUE
BETTER THAN HAGUE
Says 1t Can Be Turned Into
Useful Instrument for
World Peace.

Buenos Aires, July 17.-(Corres-
pondence of The Associated Press.)-
Epitscio Pessoa, president of Brazil
told LaNacion's Rio de Janeiro CORES
pondent recently that the League of
Nations was an imperfect organism
which does not yet come up to the ex-
pectations of those who trusted that
its institution would ensure inter-
national law and order but that,
nevertheless, it could be turned into
useful instrument for the peace of
the world for settling as far as possi-
BILE conflicts between the nations.
The Brazilian executive said that it
was necessary for this latter purpose
that the league should be established
upon a more democratic basis.
President Pessoa declared that he
admitted that the mechanism of the
league had not offered as vet the solid
ity which mechanism capable of re-
solving conflicts between different
states should necessarily possess.
He said that the so-called small ma
tions had not the necessary representa-
tion before the league to which they
were entitled and that those policies
prevailed which were supported by
naval and military strength.
He added that the great powers gave
themselves the lions share in the
council of the league, by which they
had created for themselves lifelong
mandates. Nevertheless, he declared,
the league. in its actual condition, is
much more efficient aud has more am
pie powers than the Hague tribunal.

1905, 1908, 1909 and 1911. Despite
the German menace France reduced
her military service in 1905 and again
in 1908.
In 1914 France withdrew her forces
10 kilometers from the frontier to
avoid the risk of clashes with the
Germans. The war was sought, pre-
pared for and declared in 1914 not by
France, robbed of her territory, but by
Germany, unsatisfied with the old con-
quests, and desiring new.
1t was because she succeeded in
grasping AlsaceL Lorraine in 1871 that
Germany sought to grasp our northern
mining basin in 1914. Thus the "er-

MANY JEWS LEAVE
RUSSIA IN FEAR Of
ANT|-SEM|T|C ACTS
BOlshevists Are Said to Be
Giving Protection to the
Exodus.

Berlin, July 27-(Correspondence of
The Associated Press. )-Thousands of
Russian Jews are crossing the Esthon-
ian. Lithuanian, and Polish borders
every month, many sent from soviet
territory under protection of high
bolshevist officials, according to travel
ers in the border states who recently
have returned here. The opinion in
neighboring states is that the exodus is
prompted by fear of an approaching
crisis.
The rumored crises in Russia al
WAYS have been discounted here but in
well-informed sources it is believed
the situation really is serious now, and
will be more serious in the winter
months, for it is known the grain crops
largely have failed, provisions of all
sorts are scarce, and there is little
gold with which to purchase more.
Starvation already has taken toll of
the population of number of districts,
and wide areas are facing the longer
winter with only few weeks supply of
provisions on hand.
The fact that no appreciable organ
lied Russian anti -bolshevist movement
has appeared since Baron Wrangell's s
forces were dissipated leads observers
of the situation here to believe that
should the overthrow Of the soviets
occur. this winter it win take the
nature of a popular uprising, supported
by such troops as are not at the front.
Many fear it will result in a widespread
anti-Jewish program.
For these reasons every Jewish
family of means, and many that are
destitute, are attempting to get out of
Russia. They have no desire to tarry
in Lithuania or Esthonia, but are seek
ing to enter Germany, with the idea of
eventually reaching America.

Investigations Disclose Fake
Hypnotists, Astrologers and
GrapholOgists.

Berlin. July 26.-(Correspondence of
The Associated Press. 1.-The business
of making a living by playing upon the
| credulty and ignorance of the people,
which has been developed into a skill
full and lucrative profession in Germany
during the last two years, now is
practiced by thousands of men and
women, the majority of whom are living
luxuriously in Berlin, recent investiga-
| tions have disclosed.
The investigations grew out of the
unusual number of mysterious ad-
vertisements" which have been appear
ing in virtually all the provincial news
papers and showed that graphologists,
ties of personal magnetism" were
reaping big financial rewards.
Interpret the Stars.
There are 500 persons in Berlin en-
gagged in the occupation of interpret
ing the stars, at few marks a head
and they are reported very busy. Their
clients are drawn from the poorer
classes, many of whom cannot afford
to buy sufficient food for themselves
and dependents and have turned to
the fortune tellers in an effort to
learn if the future holds out any hope
for them.
More than 1000 persons are making
a living here by Interpretation of
handwriting. claiming to be able to
read character and forecast the fu-
ture. Many of them are said to be
uneducated and hardly able to read
any kind of writing Their customers
are chiefly women and girls.
The doctors" of hypnotism and
magnetism" recruit their patrons
from all classes of society, large
percentage being the rich and the idle
who are seeking entertainment, or
simply are experimenting. 1t is as
serted that among the students of
"hypnotism" there are also many
questiinable characters, working under
the impression that knowledge of
the occult will help them in picking
pockets or robbing rich householders.
Get-Rich- Quick Hoax.
A number OF cnarlatans have in
fringed on old American patents and,
after advertising that they have the
secret of making a million marks-and
having received the five or the 80
marks they send back the curt for
mula: Make it as we do"
All of the patrons of the Berlin pro-
fessional fortune -tellers or strength

During this week it has fallen to the

acute differences between Great Bri-
tain and France regarding the out
standing world problems which are un-

Will these problems be now solved,

then Europe may have breathing time
to recover from the wounds of the war.
If the latter, then anything may hap

Franco British Entente Strained.
The Franco British entente has been
strained almost to the breaking point
and cannot continue indefinitely to

British people may demand freedom
to take their own course. Silesia is

continued industrial chaos in an area
which should be at once exploited for
European economic reconstruction.
This industrial aspect of Europe's
political problems is one which is not
always given the attention it merits
men" The world lives on its stomach.
The production of goods is the first
essential. And that is especially true
at this time of scarcity. Yet Silesia,
which for nearly 200 years has been
one of Germany's chief industrial as
sets has been wasting its resources in
riotous living, contrary to the spirit of
the treaty of Versailles.
Lloyd Georges Stand Endorsed.
It is satisfactory to note that during
the week there has been some deflec-
ton of the French pro-Polish policy.
The division of the Silesian industrial
area, according to the plebiscite is an
advance on the French plan. 1t does
not seem to be an ideal arrangement
and we have yet to show it would be
taken by Poland and Germany.
We, however, cordially indorse Lloyd

nations of the British empire will new

which arises from the oppressive use
of superior force or from an abuse of
justice in a moment of triumph by
any one of the allies"

Lloyd George hesitates yet to
say whether or not he will come
to the Washington conference but
if he does come, Mr.. Barnes says
the American people may be sure
that he will speak the voice of the
British nation. The British people
are proud of their prime minister
and poud of the part the nation
has played under him.
London, Aug. 13.-In view of some
of the recent utterances of his peri
patetic opponents, it may be appropri-
ate here to say few words regarding
Lloyd Georges standing with the Eng
lish people, in the event that he should
attend the Washington conference.
There has been some confusion dur
ing the past week arising from an al
legged newspaper interview. in which 1t
was reported that the prime minister
had said he did not intend personally
to take part in the Washington gather
ing. The report was duly contradicted.
Lloyd Georges intentions in the mat
ter are still unrevealed. He is prob
ably waiting on events, and, like Lin
coin in similar circumstances, is willing
to be controlled thereby instead of in
dulging in the vain hope of controlling e
them.
Irish Affairs Are Maturing.
Meantime, however, Irish affairs
are maturing and the near east is in
turmoil as well as southeast Europe.
In such circumstances it would be fool
ish for Lloyd George to commit him
self lightly to a task which would in
volve his absence from the country
for from six to 10 weeks at the least.
1t has fallen to Lloyd Georges lot,
brilliant and volatile as he is himself,
to yet interpret and express to other
peoples the staid moralities of our
race. He has been our mouthpiece to
the ever changing representatives OF
the allies during the strenuous days
alike of war and peace and he has
rarely failed to present accurately the
national view.
We are indeed not little proud of
Lloyd George and of the part which
through him we have played in these
momentous times. He has recently
been pictured in the United States as
mere transient figure rejecting
fleeting phase of our national life.
Nothing is more unture or, at the pres
ent time, more mischevious. We have
our own differences on some affairs for
home consumption and we are not slow
in expressing them. We sometimes
saw a good deal more than we mean.

ences ever will be eradicated.
Paris, Aug 13.-The Silesian dis
pute amply illustrates how the Euro
pean powers can agree perfectly upon
basic principles of settlement and
yet differ wholly on interpretations
These diverse interpretations spring
from diverse political conceptions which
in turn are dictated by opposite tenn
peraments and traditions.

was to persuade the United States to

in 1919 on the subject of the occupa-
ton of the left bank of the Rhine
which France held necessary as a
guarantee of the execution of the
treaty and again another invasion.
David Lloyd George regarded such
an occupation as unjustifiable.
Differences Still Exist.
The differences still exist in the su-
preme council. Can they ever be elm
mated? 1t is very doubtful. But at
least we can try not to aggravate them
by inexcusable errors. Take, for in
stance, the strange comparisons in Eng
lish newspapers between Si1esia and
Alsace Lorraine. wherein both the pre-
misses and conclusions are false. The
Daily Chronicle, supposed Lloyd
George organ, says that by taking Al
SAGE Lorraine from France, Germany
rendered necessary sooner or later a
war in which the French would strive
to regain her lost provinces"
This same paper concludes: France
is committing in Silesia the same mis-
take Germany made in Alsace-Lor-
raine."
1t seems inconceivable that great
paper could distort the plainest his
torical facts in such a manner. To
believe the Chronicle, France planned,
for and declared war to re-
take the provinces annexed by force
and without plebiscite in 1871. Who
does not know that this is the exact
contrary of the truth?
Carried Wounds Silently.
For forty years France carried her
