1t is big job. 1t means the reorgani-
cation of the world"
Is there here indicated any purpose
not included in the Jewish ideal, or
any task for which the Jew is not fully
fitted?
All accepted authorities agree re-
garding the revolutionary character
istics Of the Jewish race.
1.-THE Jewish spirit says Bernard
Lazare, himself Jew, "is essentially
a revolutionary spirit; and, conscious
ly or otherwise, the Jew is a revolu-
zionist"
According to that jealous anti-Sem-
lite, Goughenet des Mousseaux-
frequently states a truth, but usually
misapplies 1.-THE Jew is "the design
er, the constructor, and the chief en-
gineer Of revolutions"
Renan regarded the Jew as
prime element in social transforma-
ton and progress.
The Jew is both the leader and the
support of intellectual instructions
as well as political revolutions.
"The Jewish people always have
possessed the genius for declaring
revolutionary truths says Ray
Stannard Baker in his book, "The
Spiritual Unrest and reminds US:
MANY Of the ideas that now are
most deeply stirring mankind are
the product Of Jewish thinkers. The
beginning Of the Socialist movement
traces back to two Jews, Marx and
Lassalle; the peace movement had
its inspiration in a book by Jean de
Bloch, a jew; and the Ethical Gull
ture movement in America, the
length and breadth of which is not
yet appreciated, is largely the in
spiration Of DR.. Felix Adler, a Jew"
Without rejecting on the extent
or thoroughness of Mr.. Bakers his
archaeological researches, it may
be said he has not gone back far
enough in his quest for Jewish orig
ms Of revolutionary ideas. Jesus was
the first Socialist Of record, and the
prophet Isaiah was a pinoeer pacif-
list. In fact, the entire structure of
Judaiistic faith is based upon the
ethical fundamentals of social JUS
tice and universal peace.
This revolutionary spirit is not
confined to any intellectual, social, or
economic class, but is shared in
measure by all Jews alike-million-
aire and mendicant, aristocrat and
proletaire, learned and uncultured.
Actively identified with any move.
ment Tor human betterment will be
found in large numbers Jews of
every degree.
The Single Tax movement, while
not originated by a Jew, is largely
supported by Jews, 1t was chiefly
financed by Joseph Fels in the lat
ter years Of his life, and since his
death the widow has devoted n con-
siderable part Of her fortune to pro-
motion Of the propaganda. Among
other Jews conspicuous in the move
ment are Daniel Kiefer and Samuel
Danzieger. Perhaps the strong af-
finity Of wealth Jews for this eco
nomic doctrine NAV be accounted for

duced to only $50,O00,000. In conse-
qaence the German forces were with
drawn from France with the exception
of those occupying Nerdun.
That final $50,OoO,00o was paid on
September 5, 1878. Eight days later
the Germans reluctantly evacuated
Verdun, and three days afterward the
last German soldier marched across
the frontier and France was free from
the invader. The fact that Verdun
was thus the last place to be given up
by the Germans caused that place to
be regarded with special interest of
a sentimental kind in the World War
1t gave the Germans special eagerness
to reconquer and reoccupy it, and
nerved the French with extraordinary
resolution to defend it. "They shall
not pass!" was uttered with a keen
recollection of the occurrences of 1873.
(. Thus was completed this unprece
dented undertaking. With the excep-
ton of the vast operations of our own

achievement in finance had commanded,

Never in history was any comparable
undertaking conducted with q more ad-
mirable spirit. France saw her public
debt increased because of the war
which Germany forced upon her from
eight and q quarter to more than six

never lost heart, never grumbled, never
so much as thought Of repudiaticn.

of affairs been more impressive

sages call Karma. The prophecy of

level of patriotism and of national

prompt subscriptions totaled 30,oo0,-

five and six billions more from other
countries. 1t was such response as
had never before been made TO any
governments request for loan
Final Billion Was Paid
Two Years Ahead of Time
The third Of the five milliards or
billions of francs was of course paid
not only on time but considerably
ahead of time, and then in March,

notification that the fourth billion
would not be delayed to March, 1874.

but would be paid on May 5, 1878, and
that the fifth and final billion would

but before the end of 1878.
"Donnerwetter. growled Bismarck
and Bleichroder. "If only we had
known the French could raise so much,
how much more we would have made
them pay!"
But it was too late for that. The
only thing to do was to accept the
payment of the ransom and then. as
soon Is possible, pick quarrel with
France and overwhelm her in another
war, at the end of which there would
be no such mistake made as that of
1871, but levy would be made upon
her which would in truth bleed her

Germany attempted few years later,
and would perhaps have effected had
1T not been for Great Britain's very
direct intimation that such a course
would not be pleasing to her; an in

hatred of England, which found final
voice in Lissauer's "Gott strafe Eng

Russia Alone Can Profit

Turks, whether victorious or beaten, q

But Constantine is supreme egoist,
now as always. He is fighting for him
self and his dynasty. He tried to sac
rifce Greece, before his expulsion, TO
his infatuation for the Hohenzollern
family, of which he was proud to con-
slider himself distaf member. He
sacrificed the greater Greece of Veni-
zelos by returning to Athens. Yet, as
he sits in Smyrna, complaining to news
paper correspondents of the bedbugs
and the poor bathing facilities there,
and lamenting the fact that the Greek
Parliament hasn't yet passed bill in
creasing his civil allowances to 3,000,-
600 drachmas year, with S,000,000
drachmas for arrears for himself and
his brothers, these thoughts probably
fit through his mind:

New-York tribune., 1921-06-26

this oppressive treaty Germany COM
m1tted an act of quite gratuitous AFRO
gance. She paraded her army through
the principal streets of Paris and oc-
oupied that city with her troops for
! thirty-siX hours. This was done not
for any military necessity but solely
| to humiliate the French and to remind
them that they were at the mercy of
remorseless conqueror.
The tinanciers and statesmen Of
France promptly set about devising
ways and means to pay the ransom,
but it was not until June 26, 1871, that
definite action was taken. On that date
the government authorized the opening
of subscriptions to loan of $780,
100000, half of which would be applied
to the payment of Germany's claims
| The subscription lists were opened the
next day, June 81. Germany was ex-
pectant of an appeal to her, at least
of an invitation to her bankers to
subscribe to the loan. All day long
Bismarck, the Chancellor, and Baron
Bleichroeder, the millionaire banker,
waited eagerly for some such word from
Paris. But nohe came. All that night
German financiers remained awake, at
their desks, ready to respond to an
appeal which would give them a mort
| gage on France, but they remained
awake in vain. No message came.
With the morning of June %, how
ever, word came. Not cent was need
ed from Germany or from anybody out
side of France, for all over France
there had been an upspringing to meet
the emergency, with the result that in
scribed more than $500, 10000, or more
than double the amount desired at that
time. Bismarck and Bleichroder were
overwhelmed with surprise and cha
grin, their only consolation being in
the hope that this would prove to be
an exhaustion of Frances resources,
and that when another loan was called
for, to pay another installment OF the
ransom, little or nothing would be
Forthcoming.
In consequence of the success of this
loan, on July ID, 1871, France cele-
brated the anniversary of the storming
OF the Bastille by paying to Germany
the first lnstallment of her ransom,

to give Constantine one more chance
TO prove that he could live up to the
military obligations which Venizslos
had assumed and which he SO loudly
claimed that nc was competent to take
over.
Constantine had staked too much on
victory in Asia to accept meekly his
crushing defeat bv the Turks. Since
April he mas been pouring reinforce
ments into Smyrna. The ether day he
said that the Greek expcdjtionary force
had been increased to 100000 men, with
100000 in reserve in home depots. TINS
is, of course, a gross exaggeration. Yet
it is patent that, though he came back
to power on wave Of protest against
Yenizelos's militarist program, he has
largely increased Greece's military
burdens and has practically exhausted
her credit in doing so. AS all expaa~
sionist Venizelos always was able to
finance his projects. sConstantine's
projects are even more ambitious, but
financing them is beyond him. Never
theless, before sailing from Athens for
Smyrna two wesks ago he issued this
grandiloquent proclamation to his sub
jects: Il go to place myself at the
head of my army Where Hellenism mas
struggled for centuries, with the aid OF
the All-Highest, victory will crown the
efforts of our race, which is advancing
irresistibly toward it's destiny. Our pre-
dominance in those regions, as did for
merly that of our forefathers, will in
sure realization of our highest ideals
of liberty, equality and justice" 1t was
the sort of literature which the world
formerly expected from his brother-in-
law-now the exile of Doom.
But who, except Constantine himself
and his rabid Athenian followers, car
think that destiny is going to smile or
this sort of Near Eastern settlement

seriously with British, French and Ital
ian interests, whether it succeeded Of

and that in such an event (the
recall of Tino) they would reserve
complete freedom to deal with the situ-
tion.' subsequently the British gov
ernment, fearing the effects Of a rap
prochement between the Nationalist
Turks and the Moscow government,
moderated its antagonism to Constan-
tine and allowed him to purchase mu-
nitions in England.
Even after the London conference for
the revision of the treaty it was willing
New-York tribune., 1921-06-26

This was the French and Italian policy
from the day Venizelos was over
thrown. On December 2, 1920, the Al
lied Supreme Council issued warning
to the Greek government that the pow
ers represented in it could consider
"the restoration of sovereign whose
disloyal attitude and conduct toward
them during the war had caused them
grave difficulties and serious losses
only as ratification by Greece
of King Constantines hostile acts,
New-York tribune., 1921-06-26

In that act the saying that it is more
blessed to give than to receive was
strikingly eXemplifed. France gave, but
she did so eagerly, even exultantly--
re:oicing in her own ability to do it,
and in the taking of that one long step
toward the freeing of her soil from
German occupation
Whole Nation Bears Loss
Under Law That Is Passed
In September of that year the French
government enacted law making the
whole nation bear the war losses Of the
invaded provinces and responsibility
for their restoration. This meant the
raising of many millions more
At the first anniversary of the treaty,
in. February, 1872, Louis Adolphe
Thiers, then the head of the French
government, ordered the opening of
subscriptions throughout France, with
out limit of amount, for the sole pur-
pose of paying the ransom. From the
proceeds week later hetpaid at Stras-
bourg S300000,000 more to the German
creditors, together with full interest to
date on all the remainder.
| Revision of the treaty and extension
OF time were then sought, to which Ger
many responded favorably, even eager
| ly and with eXultation, since the re-
quest was interpreted as a confession
of weakness. Bismarck felt assured
that Frances resources were at last
exhausted. She was "bled white" and
would have to mortgage herself per-
petually to her German conuueror.
Under the new agreement the third
billion francs, of 100000, 900. was "a
be paid in March, 1873, the fourth
billion on March l, 1874, and the fifth
and final billion on March /, 1875.
| This agreement was made on June %,
1872, and received with much mur-
muring and grumbling in France. The
people wanted to hurry rather than to
delay the completion of the ransom, s.
as to get rid Of the hated and offensive
German army of occupation.

of 3,oo0,0o0,000 francs, at 6la per cent
