MANY FOREIGN COUNTRIES
AIDED BY AMERICAN JEWS
for War Relief Work
Have Amounted to About
5000, 900.

Thirty-nine European countries and
territories will ever, remember the
generosity of American Jewry, who
have distributed among them, through
the joint distribution committee,
about s36,o00.0o0 in war relief work,
from october 26. 1914. to January /,
1921.
Poland has received the most, $16,-
100000. of which $4.5oo.oo was ex-
pended in 1920. while Russia and
Ukraine. where suffering among the
Jews is perhaps the worst in Europe,
received $1,o4S,000 in that year,
though prior to 1920 expenditures in
Russia had amounted to over. 81, ,0oo,-
900. Austria received $775,000 in 1920,
and Hungary $285.oO0. and $4,000. 900
had previously been spent in Austria
Hungary. Besides these countries, re-
lief work amounting to over 1885,
900 has been done in Palestine, and
over $1.s00.000 in Rumania.
In describing the pitiaole state of
the Jews in Europe to a representa-
tive of the Jewish Morning Journal,
Herbert Hoover said: I'm all my life
l have seen nothing that shocked me
more than the poverty and misery of
the Ghettos in eastern and central
Europe. The condition of the Jewish
war sufferers, and particularly that
of the children. is indescribable."

Without going into details now

solemn referendum" was made
10 the American people. 1t was an
unfortunate experiment. On the
face of the returns it is perfectly
justifiable to say that the Amer
lean people have repudiated the
covenant of the league of nations.
yet those who had to do with the
campaign know that with 100000
illiterates in the volunteer and
conscript army of America, the
question was not seriously consid-
cred by the American electorate.
am nows no more convinced
than l was before the election that
there was any danger to the Amer
lean people in our joining the
league, and I am just as much
convinced that our entrance would
have been good in the cause of
peace.

ment became hazy to my mind
when it was made along with the
statement that at the conclusion
of the Spanish american war We
became a world power. / was not
able, nor am I now, to grasp
view which announced in one and
the same breath that We were
world power and yet that we were
not in the world.
The argument with reference to
supergovernment appealed to
me in the light of history no more
than did the similar argument of
the anti-federalists at the incep-
tion of the Constitution Of the
United States. 1 could see in it
no other than just concord be-
tween the nations of the earth to
promote peace and good will, to
lessen the dangers of war. to de-
eide the questions that should be
submitted to arbitration. and to re-
lieye as freely as possible taxpayers
of the world from the burdens OF
vast military and naval establish
ments.

FOR VICE PRESIDENT
Proposed to Enlarge His Work in Three
II Ways, Giving the Office Increased
II Power and Usefulness.

vision a larger field of usefulness for
Vice President might take from the
President a large share of the bur-
den in respect to appointments. IL
is an open secret that Vice President
Coolidge has been of great service 10
President Harding in this respect
The President has to consider these
candidates for Office not only with
regard to their qualifications, put
equally, if not more, regarding po-
litical eKigencies. In this vexatlous
work the President might quite ad-
vantageously call in the Vice Presl-
dent to study the papers and then
thrash the matter out with him, as
partners would.
Also it is thought that President
Harding plans to use Vice President
Coolidge in much the same way as ne
has already called upon his personal
physician-to look into social welfare
work. The Vice President could thus
be called upon to relieve his CHIEF oy
making special study of this or that
proposal. some particular line OF pol
icy or problem, summarizing the sit
uation and making recommendations
which the President would discuss
with him.
Closer Relations With Congress.
One of the most important ways in
which it is understood President
Harding plans to invite the most
helpful cooperation Of Vice President
Coolidge is in establishing closer
working relations between the ex-
ecutive and legislative branches of
the government. Going from the Sen
ate to the presidential chair. Presi-
dent Harding let it be quite positively
known that he intended to correct
glaring error of the Wilson regime
by seeking and encouraging cordial
between the White House
and Capitol Hill.
Woodrow Wilson. used Postmaster
General Burleson and Carter Glass to
some extent in endeavoring to get
Congress to carry out HIS wishes. It
is the thought of those who are ad-
vising the present administration that
Vice President Coolidge, presiding
over. the Senate, will come to know
each. member, and many Of those in
the House. He will be in a position
to get their views in informal con-
versation and to explain away any
possible Misunderstanding. The
course in this regard taken by the
present administration will be not
able example for other Presidents to
follow.
Given the opportunity. as President
Harding seems quite willing to give
it. Vice President Coolidge is expect
ed to make the Office of Vice Presi-
dent one not only of increased useful
ness, but of new power, influence and
dignity.

BY N. O. MESSENGER.

President Harding and his cabi-
net deem the railroad question In its
present aspect the paramount do
mcstic problem. It's consideration is
to have the unceasing attention Of
the administration with view to its
solution. the solving being regarded
essential to the prevention of still
more n1enacing business disturbance
as well as relief from existing ills.
What the answer is to be, the
President and his cabinet frankly
confess they are not now prepared
to say Their first work will be to
seek to ascertain from governmental
agencies bearing on the railroads in
formation and suggestion. Stress
should be laid upon this turning first
to official sources, away from the
railway management and labor con-
tentions. which are to be reviewed
afterward.
The fact that railroad rates are
related Importantly to the impend-
ing new tariff obtrudes poignantly
Maintenance Of present high rail-
road rates. it is becoming apparent.
Will necessitate the levying of the
highest tariff this country has ever
experienced.
This is not an abstruse problem
by any means. 1t can be illuminat-
ed easily by one simple illustration;
the ocean rate on wheat from the
Argentine. SO tho tariff board esti-
mates, is about one-half the railroad
rate on wheat from the grain belt
to the gulf ports. The result would
seem to dictate a high protective
tariff for the American wheat grower.
Daniel Willard. president of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany and acknowledged to be one
Of the great practical railway men
Of the country, in an address recent
~ to railway managers. pointed out
the custom in this country of procur-
ing flour. meats. minerals and forest
products at the points where they can
be obtained at the lowest initial cost
and Transporting them largely by
rail to the points OF ultimate con-
sumption. the entire transportation
cost being less than the difference in
initial cost Of production in different
parts Of the country.
But when the products arrive at
their destination and are met by
cheap. ocean-borne imports. they are
at q disadvantage without the pro-
tective tariff.
