That Naughty Bloc.

TVEN our not-too-metropolitan neighbor, the
= virile Richmond Times Dispatch, has GER
tain feeling of alarm at that octopus born upon
The Hill in this session of Congress and christened
the agricultural bloc" The It'd is OF the opinion
that class legislation has never been popular IN this
country. 1t never has, when known by that name.
But there has been mighty little financial or eco
nomc legislation in the past sixty years thae couo
not WELL better, have borne that title as what
is credited to the present farm combination
Just what interests have drafted the schedules
of every tariff act? What have had most to say as
to the banking laws? Who have shaped the various
bond issue measures from Panama Canal to VIC
tory? Who has been accepted as the highest au-
thority in framing commercial treaties! III our
memory serves u.s. these were the interests men
and publicity agencies who now parentizing all
this agitation against the agricultural bloc II ever
there besooted kettle declaiming as to self
labeled pot it is here in evidence The I'D voices
its doubts rather hestatingly:
No thoughtful man, of course, would deny
the American farmer the benefit OF any egisa-
ton which Congress might pass. The agricui.
tural industry is entitled to all the comfort and
profit it derive from wholesome cnactments;
but it is decidedly questionable whether 1t should
be made the sole beneficiary of legislative
program, conceived and consummated by body
of well-organized and skilled parliamentarans
who rely upon the rural vote for their poiticai
life. Class legislation never has been popular IN
America and it is not popular now.
But. popular unpopular, tho farmer has
received more attention at the hands OF the
present Congress than any other body OF people
in the country, or all the other classes COM
bined. He has received it because he has been
effectively represented in the House and
Senate; because his Senators and Representa-
tives have combined their forces, pooled their
influence and entered coalitions which gave
them control of the legislative machinery. They
have been able to ignore party leaders and to
force an unwilling administration to accept their
program.
As for The Herald, we but wish this COM
binaton wise guidance. 1t came in response to
decided need. 1t has done much good and little
harm. We have bunch that bankers best
qualified to advise as to banking legislation; imam
ciers as to bonds and exchange; and manufacturers
as to tariffs, but they all need watching. The agri-
cultural bloc is watching, and at the same time is
being watched With this situation in Congress-
the rest of us can be quite content and certainly
have no cause for complaint if agriculture is at
last coming to bat.

A Real InternationaEsm.

= LASPING hands here in the shadow of the
" statue OF Dante, Rene Niviani, head of the
French delegation to the conference on limitation
OF ornaments, and Carlo Schanzer of the Italian
delegation, thus dramatically denied reports of a
rupture between France and Italy.
A dramatic and eloquent incident, but not as
significant a statement Viviani made previously
when he said: Dante belongs not to Italy alone,
but to the world"
In truth genius is international. Shakespeare
is not English possession-he is citizen of the
world in its trucst sense.
This is not only true OF poetic genius. Einstein's
discoveries not only Germany's, they arc the
worlds. Pasteur's revelations benefited the suffer.
ing humanity Of all nations.
The most recent illustration Of this is DR.. Lor-
EMS visit to America. The Austrian surgeon is
trying to help small portion of Americas de-
formed to become normal, just American relief
organizations gave their utmost to help save the
children of Austria from starvation.

Criticizes Exegesis.

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:

Biblical eNpositors have announced
their findings as given in the
open Forum"
One announces his results OF
many years Of Bible study, begin
ming with the lofty statement:
Therefore i say and straightway
exhibits the same ignorance which
our Lord rebukes in those of His
day who thought themselves Sc
wise in the words. "Ye therefore
do greatly err. not knowing the
Scriptures nor the power of God
Another. in attempting to refute
this defender of his unbelief and
ignorance likewise asserts, Il EN-

position of Revelation. Chapter VI

general explanation of the rest OF
the Apocalypse for the benefit OF
those who would be glad to have
light on the subject" Yet in this
exposition he gives no authority
for his interpretations: whence
then the light" He makes a
number of dogmatic statements as
though he himself should he taker
as an authority. And how diffusive
and enlightening are his specula'
tons.
Some of these eXpositors oil

Cutting Down Accidents.

Warns Against Race Pride.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald.
Mr.. J. Shibata says in his letter
in the Open Court of December 3
that the Creator desiEncdly made
the white and the colored races for
some marvellous purpose in His dis
pensation. This is in keeping with
ethical Christianity. All are chill
dren of one Father. God, and as
such there should exist a loving
disposition of one another. the
! teachings of our missionaries: and
Japan wants them eXemplified,
Now, the reasons for not carry
ing out these teachings by white
people. Mr.. Shibata says, is fnat
they think more highly of them
selves than they ought to think.
and they enforce their ideas,
whether consistent or not. upon
others because they say they are
superior.
Wanting ones superiority doe,
not make one superior. MIR. Shibata
shows greater superiority in &C
knowledGing the progress of the
white man when he says: AT the
present time it is said the white
man is more progressive than when
he attempted to lord it" Mr.. Shi-
bata says, however, the white mans
superiority is APT to make him
conceited," because he does not
show the spirit of humility which
is expected of those who are SUI
perior.
The very attitude which causes
so much disquiet in this country
among negroes is a want of under
N nd 70
teachings of the Creator, and. as
Mr.. Shibata puts it. ''lured by the
notion that the world is provided
for the white man"
In all the reports of what goes
on in the conference in which the
Japanese are concerned one is al
ways advised of their surrendering
their contention or opinion, simply
because we would have them sub
nit to our dictation and superior
intelligence.
Mr.. Shibata's dividing the races
into white and colored is very sig
| nificant. He certainly takes in the
Indian, Malay and negro; and he
has in mind the cry OF the negro
to whom his country is always al
luding in its papers about the muir
ders, burnings and lynchings COM
mitted on him and his being classed
as inferior. And he Is aware of
the fact the Japanese are always
referred to as the yellow peril
and a race without originality
mere apes"
Such reference to a supposedly
friendly nation are unwarranted.
Japan is extremely sensitive and
has an aristocracy behind 1t of
thousand years.
Another thought suggested by
Mr.. Shibata is that "at the present
time 1t is said" the white man is
superior. 1t Is to be inferred that
he does not believe the white man
will always be superior. 1t be-
hooves the superior race. then. to
be more Christian in its dealings
with the colored races. Nations and
races have long memories, The
colored races are in the majority
led by. Japan. and may combine
