Says Jews Are DemoraIiZing Stage -
Bewails Utter Lack of MOdesty In
WOmen'S Dress.

BOSTON, April AT the dinner of
the Grand Army of the Republic Ma
sIonaI Staff association at the Ill
home former Commander Benjamin \.
Ham of South Boston declared that the
Jews, who are guiding our theatres and
designing the costumes of women, are
attempting to break down the standards
IF the Anglo-Saxon race. They are
changing the moral standards and sentl-
ments of the young men and women OF
America. They are bringing to America
the sentiments of Central Europe which
destroy the highest standards of clvillza-
ton wherever they strike.
In all our shows and moving PIC
lures women are attired in costumes like
those worn by the women in Rome just
before its downfall. 1t is the duty of
the Grand Army of the Republic in its
remaining days to stand like a wall
against those destructive sentiments OF
Central Europe.
The labor roubles that are besetting
us, as well as the standards being set on
the stage and in the dress of our women,
are manifestation of the attempt being
made to cast down the Anglo-SaXon CIV
IlizatiOn which is the hope of the earth.
These labor disturbances are a part of
the insidiouS propaganda working IN our
midst to enforce upon our minds the SEN
timentS of Central Europe.
The Pilgrims of 300 years ago set
the standards of civilization that we
should adhere to, and that is the ciyiliz,
alton we must turn to. and we will have
a population that loves God and then
fellow men, a civilization that loves the
institutions our forefathers established.
when we step aside from that civil
iZatiOn we endanger our country and ac

 note from Japan late today prom ising a thorough investigation" of tho killing of Lieutenan. w. II. Lang don. an American naval officer. by a Japanese sentry at Vladivostok, was interpreted in connection with earlier expressions of regret by Japanese off cials as meaning that the incident. not withstanding it's gravity. will finally be adjusted so as not to delay solu- ton of other problems between the two countries.
 The note. which was in reply to one cent two weeks ago by the American government was said at the state de- partment not to meet the points raised by this government but to constitute merely an acknowledgment of the com munication from the United States. Admiral Gleaves reported to the navy
