MUTUAL HELP INSTEAD
OF IMPOVERISHMENT

In Atlantic City at a recent con-
gress of the Rotary Clubs of AMERICA
Jerome Thralls, executive vice pres
ident of the foreign trades financing
corporation, said in his speech:
"There are piled up in every corner
of the United States vast quantities
of raw materials, food stuffs and
finished products that are sorely
stand ready to purchase, but cannot
their cash and short term buying
powers"
Our surplus goods, products and
great cost. There are many idle,
well equipped factories abroad, and
people waiting to operate them. WE
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OVER
THERE FOR THE PURPOSE Of
FEEDING CHILDREN AND HELP
WOULD IT NOT BE BETTER TO
SUPPLY THESE FACTORIES
WITH RAW MATERIALS, THUS
PROVIDING WORK FOR MEN
AND WOMEN WHO ARE NOW A
CHARGE UPON THE WORLD?
And there is the crux of the argu-
ment against impoverishir1g our
selves by giving and giving until we
are penniless of money. When we
have so much over stocked materials
and foodstuffs here, we should send
that instead of sending our money,
which at best only helps for short
time.
The tramp who begs at your door,
is helped much more if you give him
work to earn his food and clothing.
He is made more dependent with every
gift. His self respect is worse after
each 'fhand out"
At this writing there are five mill
ion unemployed in the United States.
Because factories are stocked to the
ceiling with. finished products they
cannot sell. The reason they cannot
sell is because the part of their pro-
duct formerly sold in foreign coun-
tries cannot be paid for.
The sensible thing for American
people to do, is to SPEND THE MON
Ely THEY RAISE FOR FOREIGN
RELIEFS IN THE UNITED
STATES AND SEND OUR PRO
DUCTS TO THE NEEDY INSTEAD
OF SENDING THEM OUR MONEY.
We have more finished and raw pro-
ducts lying idle with no market than
any country in the world. If we send
these materials to foreign countries
it will give work to the idle millions,
and enable them to earn their living.
This will give them employment. 1t
will give them bread. 1t will not take
away their self respect.
But the more we continue to send
to begging foreigners, the more
become. 1t has come to
the peint there is some sort of
a drMeHTaEy week. MILLIONS AND |

MATCHING GERMAN ATROCITY

This week daily newspapers car
ried reports of the brutal killing of
a defenceless woman by Sim Fein
murderers in ireland. Kitty McCar-
ron, forty five years old, living in
a deserted part of the country was
taken from her home in the middle
the night, and despite her pitiful plead
ing, was dragged to the banks of a
nearby river. She lived with her
aged parents, who We're too feeble
to protect her. After the barbarous
execution her body was left lying
where she was murdered. Because of
the terrorism that reigned in the
community, people were even afraid
to remove the body for burial. A
card was left on the body bearing
the warning: "Spies and informers
beware. Tried, convicted and exc
cuted by the Irish Republican army"
This is the GROWING brutality of
the Sim Feiners which will turn
millions against the irish cause. The
people who have watched their strug-
giles with Tolerance, will denounce
them in no uncertain terms. There
were thousands of people who have
contributed to the drive for funds
which has been carried on by Irish
sympathizers in this country, who
will not only regret having given
their money, but will be so bitter in
their denunciation of a people who
wantcnly murder helpless women,
that it will hurt the Irish cause in
this country more than anything else:
Even if this woman was guilty of
sympathy with the great mass of
Irish people who oppose the Sim
movement, it does not soften the
barbarous cruelty of such a repre-
hensible act. This method of war
fare is born of the same fiendish
brutality as marked the four years
Of German horror. 1t is added proof
that the methods employed by the
Sim Feiners is of German origin.
linking people do not forget that
it was these same Sim Feiners who
sold out to the Germans during the
war and were smuggling German
arms into ireland in order to over
throw the English government. 1T
would have ment in time the over
throw of the Allies, and this would
have included the overthrow of the
United States. Patriotic Americans

A LETTER CONCERNING THE
THE LIBRARY
Dear Mr.. Cooper;

Dear Mr.. Cooper;
l sympathize with you in your eff
forts to make the Lambertville Lii
brary better, and 1 know deep in their
heart, the Lambertville people appro-
We it. / believe the solution of the diff
ficulty there is to- have the people
vote to support the library. We have
never found any library that was not
much more successful when once tur-
ned over to the town. 1t gets regular
income, it is supported by the people
and is used by the people, and is run
for the people.
The best thing that can be done I'M
til they are willing to put it to a vote
of the peope of he town, is to get as
many people of the town as possible
to give $I00 a year or more toward
its support. ..-s &C..
am mighty sorry that the Ameri-
can Library Association doesn't have
any direct concern with library of
this kind (being private library and
has no way in which they could help
it.
We will do anything in the world to
help make this good library, if the
movement comes from within Lam
bertville. The library there, although
at first glance it may not seem so, has
done a good work, avery fine work.
They have beginning of books. They
have a place in the community
Now the thing to do is to get it sup
ported by the town on third of a
mill basis, so it will be up and coming
like Hopewell, and other towns of the
same size.
You are right that it is better to
boost and not knock. The slogan we
used in one town was Would you
steal from a child?" If you take
from him the right to the books he
needs to learn more, earn more, and
enjoy more, you are stealing from
him his opportunity to make good in
life. If you are going to steal from
a child, don't steal from him thing
so valuable, for the sake of dollar
or two for yourself.
wish you all good luck, and you
can have from US all the cooperation
possible.
Very truly yours,

Public Library Commission.

EDITORIALS
THE SHADOW ON AMERICA

In a recent issue of the New York
American one of Williams signifi-
cant cartoons appears under the title
1.-THE Shadow on The Capitol" Now
this paper does not endorse the pol
icies of the New York American.
but their policy of demanding JUS
tice for disabled vetrans is good.
The cartoon in question showed a
shadow of soldier on crutches ex-
tending up the Capitol steps and up
the dome.
In that connection there is a dis
abled vetran in Trenton, Joseph Dor
iety, by name, who lost leg on the
battlefields of France. When he was
discharged from an army hospital,
he was given crude pair of crutches
on which to walk the rest of his Life.
These clutches were of the cheapest
quality known. They had not even
pads to rest the arms. Surgeons will
tell you that crutches should gift"
the same as artificial limbs. But
this mans crutches made his walk
ing painful. They looked like the
sticks of begger. YET THE MAN
USING THEM HAD SACRIFICED
HIMSELF ON THE BATTLEFIELD
OF FRANCEi
He applied for decent pair of
clutches from the government. He
was refused. He is a poor boy. His
only compensation is the pittance he
gets from his war risk insurance. He
said he felt ashamed to go about on
the crutches the army had given to
him. So by dint of careful saving. he
managed to buy good pair of
crutches fitted to him perfectly. He
was very proud of them. But THE
WAR RISK OFFICERS AND THEIR
COHORTS DID NOT GIVE THEM
TO HINT
Another case is that of negro
who did his bit for the country by
shoveling coal day and night in the
dungeons at the bottom of battle
ship. The strain of his efforts caused
rupture. He applied for truss to
give him relief and to prevent fur
Their complications. He was told he
could have truss that did not cost
more than six dollars. Such truss
is of the cheapest quality. The leather
and fabric of it disintegrates from
perspiration rapidly. The better kind
of trusses have enameled steel bands
which will not rust or decay. They
last a lifetime. The John A. Roeb-
ling's Sons Co. in Trenton, have their
physician fit all their employees who
suffer rupture with these higher
class trusses costing from sixteen to
twenty dollars. But this magnifi-
cent government cannot treat its
disabled soldiers as well as private
company treats its employees.
If some of our privatecompanies
were to treat its disabled EMPLOYEES
as contemptibly as the Public Health
service of America treats our dis
abled soldiers their owners would be
sent to prison. We commend the ac-
ton of President Harding in appoint
ing Brigadier General Dawes to see
why our men are treated so badly,
and take steps to remedy the situa-
tions.

Bohn at Lambertville."

cerned about me, you would have
known that my editorial of last week

also that "sluririg remarks made
about these young men,, were very

of the things the citizens of Lam
