A HOT PLACE FOR ALLEN

Topeka, Kan. : Governor Allen Of
Kansas, father of the cant strike
court in this state, is talking again.
addressing the Topeka Rotary club, he
said:
I've dealt with many strikes and
many strikers. The coal strike brought
us into contact with strikers led by the
radical reds. If | ever have to choose
the strikers | deal with, I'd rather have
the foreign reds than the American cit
liens. The foreigner hates the govern
ment, but fears it. The tendency of
the American-born striker, like too
many American citizens. is to have nei-
Their respect nor fear for his govern
ment."
Commenting on Aliens outburst, the
Joplin Tribune says:
Our readers will recall that this MIN
compoop governor had the United
States constitution torn down and per-
suaded Kansas legislature filled with
lgnoramuses to pass a law known as
the industrial court law, which prac-
tlcalIy forbids free speech, the right to
quit work in any industry in Kansas,
and then christened this bastard con-
ception a law 1t was intended to
prevent strikes. Well. they have had
more in Kansas since that time than
ever before. 1t was this law which
Henri |. was talking about in Topeka
when he said he preferred the foreign
red to good American citizen.
You will also note this governor Of
kansas would teach citizens to fear
the government! Think this over!
Why should any citizen fear his gov
eminent? For no other reason than
would-be czars and bourbons of the
class of Allen desire to rule and de-
clare the law themselves!
The late Col. Watterson carried a
phrase in his paper during the war with
Germany that was very forcible, if not
polite: To hell with the Hapsburgs and
the Hohenzollerns!' This ought to be
carried at the masthead of every pa
per in Kansas: To hell with the AL
lens.

SHALL UNSUITABLE GREED
DESTROY THE HUMAN RACE?
by The Federated Press)

I
/ Washington. What part Of the
United States is to play in the struggle
over Constantinople and the restoration
iof Turkey, with its implied restoration
Eof Moslem self-government from India
ito G.bralter, is problem upon which
the Harding administration is trying to
make preliminary decisions.
Shall the United States, to-day the
most powerful of all nations, having
rejected the Versailles treaty and the
other treaties underlying this new war
in the Near East, send navy and ar
my to force the Turks to accept those
treaties?
Shall the United States, mother of
missionaries, agree to the return of
the Turk to Europe, and to the reviv-
al of Islam, which appears to be the
inevitable consequence
Shall the United States stand aside
and let the various imperialisms of Bri-
tain, France, Greece. Jugoslavia, Ru-
mania, risk their fate against the arm
led power of the Nationalist Turks, SUD-
ported perhaps by Russia?
Absolute neutrality for so great a
power as the United States, in view of
It's close relations with Britain, is
scarcely to be expected. The admin
lstration is trying to find what degree
OF protection can be given Christian .in-
terests in the near east-which means
the interests allied with British inper-
iallsm- without clearly involving this
country in the armed struggle which
soon may break upon Britain, the Bal |
kans, and Russia.
AT this moment, the Harding admin
istration is appalled, by the prospect of
another world war.
A dilemma facing the state depart
pent is the position of Russia as alIy |
OF the victorious Turk. Moscow offers
70 act as mediator between Renal and
Europe.
Fire and the sword, directed by Mos
lem fanatics, gains tenfoId more atten-
ton than when used with equally bar
barous effectiveness by the Greeks in
Smyrna and the lesser cities of Asia
Minor, In spite of their desire to be
fair. Americans will soon be wrought
up to a desperate state of hatred for
the Turks.
America and Russia, by resolute CO.
operation, can save Europe from anoth-
er deluge of blood and further COL
.apse of civilized standards Of living.
To-day the administration marks time,
while the peril of this war speeds to-
ward vast explosion.

(By The Federated Press)

New York. = The French co-opera-
tive societies have negotiated an agree
ment with German capitalists which
makes possible the payment of repara-
tons by the delivery by Germany of
necessary commodities rather than
cash. Germany, by the terms of this
agreement, is to deliver finished build
ing materials. such as mortar, cement.
bricks. ETC., which will be used by the
co-operatives in an extensive building
program to rehabilitate the areas which
were devastated in the war.

Washington. : "To make use Of

may be denied without due process of
law. says the Federal Council of
Churches, commission on church and
social service, in discussion Of the
Daugherty blanket injunction against
the rail shopmen. 'Labor's prejudice
against such action is based upon a re-
cord of undOubted injuries. The pre-
sent situation is one of suspense, uneas-
mess and discomfort, which the issu-
ance of the restraining order has done
much to Accumulate.
The council has received numerous
messages from Protestant, Catholic. and

yers, expressing deep dissatisfaction
with the terms of the Injunction. as

PROGRESSIVE RUSSIA


/
New York. - The only city in
France, Belgium. Germany. Austria, or
Russia where the people look cheerful
lis Moscow, according to Rev. John
Haynes Holmes, pastor of the Commun-
| lty church of this city, who has just
returned from trip to those countries.
The Russian people whom | saw in
the streets" Holmes said, looked we'll
fed, clean, and contented. Business
is increasing in Moscow. There are NO
idle people in the streets. My daily
expenses in Moscow were about the
same as they would have been in a
New York hotel"
Holmes declared that the split which
occurred in the Orthodox Greek church
in Russia as a result of the question of
giving some Of the church treasure to
the government to buy food and other
necessaries for the people. is bringing
about revolution in the Russian
church similar to the reformation in
England 300 years ago. The aristo-
cratic hierarchy of the church and the
priests split over the issue, he
said, the high priests and pillars of the
church opposing the idea, and the pea
SAINT priests united in favor Of the plan.

Chicago. Omitting all reference
to the fatal Michigan Central wreck at
Gary, Ind. U. S. Atty-Gen. Daugherty
gave to the press. in advance of filing
in court, an imposing list of battles,
murders and sudden deaths, as well as
damages to railway property. which he
attributed in sweeping fashion to the
venom Of the participants in this
strike"
The careless OF unscrupulous lead Of
thus transferring to the railway shop
men the indiscriminate SANDER and
the federal department of justice is
abuse which he had been pouring on
political prisoners. Altho no evidence
in court showed the political prisoners
still confined as guilty Of any offense
against life or property, Daugherty has
constantly intimated by interview and
statements from his office that such
offenses were what kept the men be-
hind the bars.
He has now loosely scooped up in
stances and rumors Of instances of
wrecks, assaults on workers, explosions,
conflagrations and losses of life and has
saddled them all on the railway strik-
ers He does not scruple to repeat the
yarn about the Santa Fe trains aban-
doned in the desert whereas passen-
gers have repeatedly stated that the |
trains were all brought to their divis-
ion points where the only discomfort
was that the passengers could not jour
ney further without delay.
The efforts Of the perpetrators are
concentrated upon two ends-destruc-
ton and intimidation" says Daugherty
in the statement. 'The means to at
tam these ends are most indescribable.
In fact, one must believe that anything
suggested to the imagination of the
vandals or their conspirators was i'm
mediately put into effect.
But, altho many wrecks and derail-
ments are mentioned and towns in the
vicinity of Gary are specified. the vide /,

result in the deraiIing of the Michigan

gineer and fireman, is not included.

Note. %~a
The good old days of Marius and
Sulla are threatening to come to Ger
many. But Rome knew open hostility,
where the prescription lists were al
ways posted by the victors in the
struggle for mastery of the city state.
When Marius defeated Sulla, he post
ed the names of Sullas friends on the
town bulletin board, and whoever was
lucky enough to seize one, was sure
of reward for bringing him in, dead
or alive. If Sulla won a battle and
came marching back to Rome to en-
joy a little civilized leisure, he re-
turned his relatives compliment. Be-
tween them, their lists covered the
"best" people of the Rome of their
day. But it was the accepted thing
for the loser to go into exile or take
the consequences. Later on, the GUS
tom became more or less secret one.
Those days once seemed far away
to a twentieth century New Yorker.
His old history books, which always
had twinge of mythology between
their green covers, seem to be alive
again. Here in Germany, proscrip--
ton lists are being printed by the
'best" people of the old imperial
regime and passed around among ma
tionalistic society. True, they are not
. posted on the Brandenburg Gate in
Berlin, but secret anti-Semitic and
anti-republic murder organizations, as
the newspapers call them, have lists
of nationally and internationally
known Jews, for whose deaths they
plan assiduously. Erzberger was on
that list. Rathenau was on the list,
also Scheidemann.
And now, Prof. Albert Einstein
writes that he cannot deliver lecture
in Leipzig on his Relatively Theory
because circumstances" in Germany
make it imperative for him to live in
foreign land. The circumstances"
have to do with an anti-Semitic pro-
scription list which, Professor Elm
stein learned, contained his name.

states, the open activities of several
monarchistic societies have been given

According to the recently enacted law
for the Defense of the Republic, all
such organizations must be disbanded.
Consequently, the Prussian Minister
of the Interior, Severing, fearless
and liberal administrator, has dis
banded the following organizations:
The Union Of Nationally Minded Sol
diers, The Union of the Just, and the
Offensive and Defensive Union of the
German People. Minister Severing is
now taking steps toward disbanding
the German National Young Mems
Union. All pretty and understanding
names. But these organizations have
all been associated with active monar-
chistic plots, and are in close connec-
ton with murder bands who carry
out whatever dirty work has to be
done without duplicating the "best"
people of the organizations.
Of course, all murders are commit
ted for high and noble motives, and
the agents are usually young men
who are taught to be willing to die
for the nobility Of such acts. Did not
two of the three youthful murderers
of Rathenau kill themselves in the
castle of Saleek after calling down to
the people below, "We die for our
ideals"
1t is not far from the truth to state
that nearly all monarchistic radicals
are also rabid anti-Semites. Yester-
day, I had a conversation with Drs.
HLoew and Haimann of the Central
Union of German Citizens of the Jew
: ish faith, and in the course of the
#discussion, DR.. Haimann remarked,
"Scratch a monarchist and you will
ind an anti-Semite."
Like all general statements, this
one is not universally true in Ger
many. On the other hand, nearly
every bristling monarchistic utterance
1r pamphlet contains either direct
Or an implied incitement to drive out
)r to kill the Jews. In passing, l
nav mention that the honorable Gen
,ral Ludendorff, as Marc Anthony
would have referred to him, quotes
he honorable Henry Ford as an au-
hority on Jewish iniquities. Himself
4 Prussian, Ludendorff spends most
IF his time in Bavaria, where mon
,rchistic anti-Semites have found a
hospital reception by the political au-
thorities. There the various Unions
mentioned as disbanded in Prussia
still flourish grandly. >
A general Indifference to anti
Semitism exists in Jewish and nom
Jewish circles in Germany, because it's
dangers are not dramatically brought
home to the people, save in occasional
] relationships with monarchistic plots.
$50 it is a good thing that strong
man like Severing is the guardian of
Prussian republican principles. Like
! America before prohibition, the ma
epority of the people do not take anti

Semitism seriously. Recently, non
Jewish business man remarked to me
that "no one pays any attention tol
the rawlings of the anti-Semitic idiots.
In almost the same words JEWISH
Hamburg physician expressed theE
same idea. And all the while, anti-i
Semitic propaganda reaches hundredsI
of ignorant Michels who have not got-I
ten beyond the stage of believing1
everything that is set in type. Lucki-,
ly for Germany, these peasant
"Michels" are in the minority.
The balance of power rests in the,
hands of the representatives of in.
dustrial workers. These have solidly1
formed unions whose leaders will not
permit the anti-Semitic question to be
dragged into their struggle for an
ever-increasing share of the profits of
industry. Many members of trade
unions have their own private hate
for the Jews, but they do not mix it
with their food problem. The factory
workers have too often had their eco
nomic demands sidetracked by other
issues not to recognize the anti
Semitic dragon for the red herring
that it is. IteMM
Since the foundation of the German
republic, anti-Semitism has grown. 1t
is still an economic problem, as it has
always been. But, like all so-called
causes that must be furthered secret
ly (see data on Ku-Klux-Klan) it's
sponsors have purposely confused the.
arguments for it's existence and have
conducted their campaigns without
the aid of primer on logic. The an
ti-Semite always argues from the par.
ticular to the general, but l scarcely
think that he can convince the ma
jority Of Germans that a nation can
be rebuilt by the users of such logic.
If he can, the nation will be worthy
of it's leaders. But believe Germany
will suppress it's anti-Semitic mon
archists rather than submit everl
again to their rule. Then, at last, the
German Jews, who truly love Ger
many, need not feel called upon toE
apologize for -Semitism, as many:
of them now do.
Was it not Henry the Fourth of
France who said, "a nation has the
Jews it deserves ?" The liberal ele-
ments in Germany today believe the
country is worthy of it's quota.

) A list of the six greatest Jews in
history may suggest the answer. -
Who are your nominations The
present writer complies his list with
: no claim to authoritative judgment.
aif not the greatest Jews in history.
We nominate these as the six
greatest Jews in history:
Abraham, Moses, Solomon, Jesus,
aSpinoza, Herzl.
We nominate Abraham because he
sfounded a great faith; because he
Yalone was unblinded by the prevailing
!, idolating of the day; because he was
close to God; and, last but not least,
because he became father at 100.
g We nominate Moses because he
solved the Jewish problem of his day;
because he laid down laws that are
still obeyed by millions; because he
knew how to tell a story in a few
words; and, last but not least, because
he achieved fame in spite of hating
speech.
We nominate Solomon because he
proved his wisdom by praying for it;
because he conceived great works and
made them real; because he said many
, worthwhile things; because he is
being credited with being the father
1of Masonry; and last, but not least,
because he married thousand wives,
without domestic dissension, so far
! Jas we are told.
! We nominate Jesus because His
name is worshipped and revered by
untold millions; because he was a
martyr to His cause; because he
preached doctrine of humility, and
lived it as we'll; and last, but not
least, because He was one of the first
pleaders for social justice.
We nominate Baruch Spinoza be-
cause he is regarded by many as the
greatest philosopher of all time; be-
cause he interpreted Greek culture in
the light of Jewish faith; because he
faced scorn and violence for the things
he held dear; and last, but not least,
because he showed all Jews the way
to tolerance.
We nominate Theodor Herzl be-
cause he was the founder of modern
Zionism; because his great passion
was for his people; because he used
his potent pen to tell an old message
in new way; because he reawakened
a Jewish consciousness in the hearts
of thousands; and, last but not least,
because he disdained to commercialize
his ideals and his popularity.
Of these six great men all Jews
