The AssassinaHon

Berlin. June 2+.-(By The Associated
Press DIR. Walter Rathenau. German
foreign minister and more closely iden-
tilted than any other German with the
efforts at the rehabilitation Of his coun-
try since the war, WAS shot and killed
today by two or more unknown aSsas-
sins while on his way from his resi-
dence to the foreign office.
The minister was subject to n verita-
BILE hail Of bullets. one OF them striking
him In the throat and passing upward
to the brain. while others struck him IN
various parts OF the body. Hand gren-
AIDES also were thrown. almost wrecking
the car in which Or Rathcnau was rid
ing. and inficting further injuries on
the minister.
Chancellor Wtrth's government to-
night Is marshaling the nations Lib
eral elements to the defense OF the
young German republic and organized
labor. just as It did during the Kapp
revolt. Announcement Is made that the
government viii establish extraordinary
courts for the trial of nationalist plot
tiers and that state Of emergency for
Prussia will be proclaimed.
All regimental reunions and militaris-
tic demonstrations are to be prohibited
Yet, despite vociferous cries OF Long
live the republic. which resounded
through the Reichstag chamber at the
close OF a memorial session at Rathenau
today. thoughtful men OF all ranks and
parties were silently but gravely appre-
hensivc for the nation.
The emotion which marked tho brief
addresses OF Chancellor With and
President Loebs before the Reichstag,
reflected sentiments which were shared
by many others while the rioting OF
the radicals throughout what was TO
have been decOrouS memorial to the
dead foreign minister reflected the feel
Ing OF unrelenting vengeance vowed in
behalf OF the German proletariat.

Jazz IN THE OLD HYMNS.

On first impulse, most churchgoers will express
themselves Fundamentally in favor Of the elimi-
nation of jazz and ragtme from the hymnals. A
campaign such as that Of Dean Peter Lutkin Of
Northwestern university school of music in behalf
of really fine and noble church music will be greeted
with psalms Of thanksgiving.
But when Dean Lutkn, who is noted authority
on religious music. announces the discovery that
such oldtimers as II Need Thee Every Hour" and
"Oh, Mother Dear Jerusalem" nothing but the
sheerest jazz, he risks losing popular support These
tunes are unworthy of the name of music he de-
clares.
Even SO, he is wise enough and kind enough not
to urge their complete adjustment Instead Of ruth
lessy taking them away from the elder churchgoers
who have so long found solace in them, he resorts
only to the recommendation that the young people
be taught music that is more classical in style.
That's rather unusual situation-the elders
alignng to jazz while the youngsters are expected to
devote themselves to more dignifed measures Dr.
Simon Patten took it upon himself to revise the
words Of the old hymns in order to give them
greater dignity and meaning, but his attempt had
little or no effect and does not give great hope for
Dean Lutkin Homey things have way of wrap
ping themselves about the heart while pure beauty
may often be cold and unsatisfying.

turks just behind thin veil For man employs for
his daily service forces that are but partly under

to those who know 80 little Of what they arc doing
they may be called blissfully ignorant In fact, In
this case truly ignorance is bliss, for II the unn.

totally incapable Of understanding how puny his

All day and all night, by hundreds Of thousands,
men toy with elements whose destructive capacity
is greater than the creative effect secured from
them. IL Is the old story, so well done in ephemeraI

EYE. BRAIN AND ENGINE.

A collision occurred on Kansas railroad under
unusual circumstances. The track was straight and
level for miles and each engine was equipped with
an electric headlight visible for several miles Both
engineers were killed. so that neither can tell what
he thought. After weeks of investigation. the gov
eminent experts have dsspaired of solution The
hest explanation Is that furnished by the committee
from the railroad. which concludes that each engi-
neer thought the other on the siding, and so pro-
eeeded,
This Is plausible, and holds message that should
be reflected In railroad practice. On many lines now
