BLOOD is thicker than water" is an
axiom indicating that kith and kin
will fight each others battles, but
it should not be confined to individu-
ais and families; it holds good when
applied to nations speaking in the
same language and kneeling at the
same shrine. History is hut the re-
cord Of vast struggle between men
who sprang from diverse sources, and
it is nowhere written that they have
waived the differences and in peace
worked out a common plan Of civili-
cation. The Hebrews have resisted
for ages the process of assimilation
whether peaceful or otherwise, and to-
day are the same as they were cen
turtles ago. The persistence ct their
race is one of the great and interest
ing facts Of history. Overwhelmed
by superior forces and adverse cir
cumstances, they are as strong now
as they were when Judea was one of
the great political factors in the
world.
What is true of the Hebrew is like
wise true of many other races. There
must be the fact of kinship some
where before there can be amalgama-
tion or absorption. 1t is easy to I'M
derstand how the French, Italians,
and Spaniards could merge and forget
their nationalities in the constitution
Of new states. They have a common
origin, speak the Aryan language and

ALIEN RACES

worship the same God. The Germanic
races, though in recent times exhibit
ing somewhat different traits of char
acter and ideals, due largely to poll
teal circumstances, are in essentials
identical with the English. The Dutch
of New Amsterdam and the Pmitans
of Massachusetts easily united their
blood and fortunes and founded a new
government, later to be known as the
United States Of America. The Latin
and Germanic peoples are not rarially
antagonistic; they sprang from a
common ancestry, though a diver
gcrce ages ago gave them different
perspective Of life and led them along
highways widely separated, but some
time common destiny will bring
them together to work out problems
in which both are vitality interested.
But let it be said now that Canada,
America and Australia will never
mingle their blood and consequent
destiny with those of the Mongol
races, China and Japan, and all this
England knows today as we'll as she
knows that Give and Hastings could
not unite the English and Indian peO-
pies. 1t may not be now or soon, but
England will, as certain as death,
some day be compelled to cease her
intrigues with Japan or witness the
dissolution of the empire in the as
sumption of complete independence by
Australia, Canada and South Africa.

fiuence of Jan SHUTS that Sorth At

The Basis Of
Disarmament

Peace will become an assured state
and disarmament possible condi-
ton when the people of the earth
come into full realization that the
command, "Thou shalt love thy
Ineighbor as thyself," is the only
practical working basis upon which
human existence can continue.
We hope much from the present
conference of the nations in Washing
ton. We know that it is an attempt,
ut least, toward more harmonious
relations between the nations par
ticipating. But we also know that
the strongest motive underlying this
conference is fear Of our neghbors
rather than love for them,
The elimination of ages Of rivalry,
treachery, hatred; all the greed for
power and riches that has marked the
rise-and the fall--of empires and
states has resulted in a militant state
where self-defense has become an I'M
bearable burden.
The people who are the producers
and the defenders of the nations are
no longer able to stand up under the
demands for preparedness" made by
their governments. More significant
still, 10 the statesmen, the politicians,
the officials and the ruling classes,
the people are no longer willing to
attempt to carry the load imposed
upon them by great military forces
and formidable navies.
But, again, the motive of the peo-
pie is not so much love and sympa-
thy for their suffering neighbors as
the self-interest that would shift the
weight from their own shoulders. And
so long as this is true-and humanity
seems very slow at learning the SIM
pie lesson of the Golden Rule-so
long peace must remain an armed and
guarded peace For at any moment
the people of a nation may be led
into the belief that war will serve
their personal and national interests
better than peace. The genuine and
permanent peace which will need no
arms at all to support 1t can never
exist until the spirit of justice, OF
tolerance. of equality, of all that is
comprised in the dictum, Whatsoever
We would that men should do to you,
do We even so unto them," shall be-
come the ruling force in the lives OF
the people. To many that time seems
far away and visionary. The catae-
lysm Of the World War seemed to
destroy all hope Of humanity rising
in the scale or coming nearer to the
day of universal peace. Yet it may be
that this climax of national hatreds
and jealousies, this fruition of the
cultivated military spirit of a con- I
tinent, may result in so strong re-
action that men shall learn from ex-
perience that good will, harmony, CO.
operation between themselves, be-
tween governments and between races
lifts from them the terrible drains OF
militarism and gives them the bleS-
sings Of peace.
Thus. out Of the evils Of the war
will come form Of disarmament and
a leaguing Of nations. whatever its 4
motives, that shall lead to
ultimate good. The march Of evol-
ution is slow and each forward move
ment is forced by the crumbling and
dissolution Of the weak, the Outworn
and the unfit. Il il thus that out Of
death comes life and out Of evil good.
We may stin hope that in some fut-
ure time permanent and complete dis .
armament may become feasible and
universal peace may prevail upon the
earth.

AUTO HEATING

Device Makes Car Entirely Com.
Portable for Use In Cold
Weather.

Since for many years the automobile
has been acknowledged as a transpor-
tation vehicle for all-year use, II II not
surprising that 30 many cars are now
equipped at the factory with some
type of exhaust heater. 1t will not
be very long before all cars. except the
very cheap ones. will come regularly
fitted with a heating device. The only
1 eason for not having this equipment
on all cars Ia the cost.
The driver who would get the maxi
mum comfort during the fall and win
ter, must use a heater, and q good
one. There are various types, but the
exhaust type has come to be almost
standard. The brick heater, while II
u effective, requires some attention.

too much current and further drain

terry. While II is possible to use make
shifts to get some heat to the driver,
II Ii quite true that one cannot
get the true comfort which an exhaust.
type heater gives
There are numerous designs of ex-
haust heaters, but all of them use the
same fundamental principle, that of
passing exhaust gas coming from the
engine into a series of tubes or pipes
like q radiator In your home. The
tubes are covered over with a register
or comfortable device, so that one may
permit any desired amount Of heat TO
be used. One Of the difficulties with
the cheaper exhaust type heaters IL
that they may leak. and Il is, there
fore. suggested that a good design be
purchased. The matter of installa,
ton Is not for the average owner, for
the exhaust pipe has to be cut in order
to make q suitable connection. The

turer or any garage should be given
the work of installation.

ISOLATION says In statement issued
through the President OF the organi-
cation, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr:
1.-THE New York World, leader OF
the Democratic press denounces the
:, Secretary OF War for giving publicity
to the list Of men subject to draft who
are now found to have been enlisted
or excused, and the World declares
that the Secretary presumes the men
to be guilty until proven innocent.
Well, II so, the Secretary OF War is
fully justified. II man Is summoned
to jury duty and when his name Is
called he does not respond, the Judge
Issues bench warrant for his arrest.
His failure to respond is prima favie
evidence Of guilt and the warrant of
arrest will be served and he will be |
punished unless he can show that he |
was innocent Of disobeying the sum
mons.
But the Secretary OF War has not
declared all these men guilty He has
expressly declared that there may be
errors in the list, but that after MAX
ing every effort humanity possible, and
after long delay in an endeavor TO
eliminate any name enormously on
the list, he is unable to find that any
OF the men named were improperly in
cluded. He asks those named if i'm
listed, to so report. This is
the best he could do. To fail to pub
lish the list as he has now done, would
be dereliction of duty on the part !
Of the Secretary a dereliction that p,
would be very properly censured by |
the American Legion and by all the {
men who faithfully responded to their {
aountry's call. a
mo man whose name is improperly a
included in the list can justly com t
plain. He is partly at fault, for the
Department has made every possible f
effort to locate him. Instead of COM t
planning, he should thank the Secre- S
airy of War for giving him the final
to get his name off the II
