GASOLINE TAX URGED TO AID

Forty million dollars annually can

recently by Thomas H. Macdonald
chief of the bureau of public roads
United States Department of Agricul
ture, in urging readjustment OF
sources of revenue so that large
proportion would be paid by the road
user and lesser percentage from
State or local taxes.
"This method, of raising funds" de-
clared Mr.. Macdonald, ''is rapidly
growing in favor and has been adopt.

prior to January 1, 1921. The tax in
Maryland, Mississippi and South Caro-
lima has been adopted during the
present year and several other states

When that eulogy was delivered Mr..

was ignored by this great popular

favored people. To them we are
largely indebted for our literature, re.
| ligion and civilization.
| Zebulon Vance said of ell the stories
of the sons Of men there are none so
wild, so wonderful, so full of extreme
mutation, so replete with suffering, SO
abounding in extraordinary providenc-
es, so flowing with scenic romance,
as the stories concerning these Won
derful people.
Palestine, the home of their fore.
| fathers, was the central chamber of
Gods administration. Their forbeaTs
were at once the grand ushers to
those glorioGs courts, the very repoS-
itory of the councils of the Almighty
and the envoy of the divine mandates
TO the conscience of men. The jew
was the priest, faith-giyer and law
giver to mankind.
In the mutations of time the Jews
became scattered over the earth and
are now known as the Scattered Ma
ton
Will he return again to the land
of his forefathers and be consolidated
into a nation under his own domina-
ton and peopled by those of his own
faith and race?
1t occurs to us, as sanguine as some
regard it, that it is dream that will
never be realized.
In the language of Senator Vance
Though dead as nation, they yet
live. Their ideas fill the world and
move the wheels of progress, even as
the sun, when he sinks behind the
western hills, yet he fills the heavens
with the remnants of his glory"
Yet, notwithstanding this splendid
eulogy, however expert in banking,
finance and trade, if left wholly to
themselves we are moved to say that
from our observation, our Jewish
friends would soon perish from the
earth.
They are not an agricultural peo-
pie and without bread one must per-
ish.
| They are not a mechanical people
they are not moulders of brass nor
of iron; their ingenuity did not con-
struct the ships that plow our seas
or fashion the great engines that
traverse our continent and distribute
the products of the soil to our great
centers of population.
They do not figure as our great
| inventors.
They are strangers to the use of the
jack-plane, saw and trowel they
would be lost between the handles
of plow
When the California poet wrote that
wonderful epic entitled "The Man
With the Hoe," he was not describing
our Jewish fellow-citizens.
Centuries have not looked down
upon him leaning on hoe.
If suddenly transplanted to Pales-
tine he could neither build houses
nor grow crops.
Whatever the forefathers may have
been the descendants know nothing of
herding sheep, making vineyards or
growing those things which give sus-
tenance to life.
The Jew is a born trader and too
gifted with the easier way of money
making to become familiar with the
hard lot of the farmer or the rough
tools of the mechanic.
He is looked upon as being wise
in his day and generation.
The Jew is not going to leave the
United States or other highly civiliz-
ed nation where he can so easily ply
his rare gifts of merchandising and
finance.
We can almost say FOR certainty
that the Jews in America are not go
ing to flock over to Palestine in a
body unless they carry with them an

WHAT is AND WHAT is NOT HIS
TORY

Since Mr.. H. G. Wells gave to the
world the names of the six men whom
he considers the greatest characters
in history in the light of having con-
ferred the greatest and most lasting
benefits on mankind, great deal of
space has been devoted as to what is
and what is not history.
The general concensus OF opinion
is that an historical fiction carries
with it a greater and more resplendent
reception than the dry recital of an
historical fact for the reason that a
fiction is hedged about with more or
less glamour and is told with great
fervor, flavor and piluancy.
For example:
The conference at Hampton Roads
ss-ween Mr.. Lincoln and members
of his cabinet, and Mr.. Alexander H.
Stephens and others on sthe part of
the Confederate government, is prin-
cipally remembered for what Mr. Lin
coin was afterwards quoted as hay-
ing done.
Pointing to sheet of paper he held
in his hand and handing it to Mr..
Stephens" Mr.. Lincoln is quoted as
having said:
stephens, let me write UNION
at the top of that page, and you may
write below it whatever else you
please!"
Had Mr.. Lincoln done that it would
have been patriotic and heroic
deed which would have entitled him
to the praise and plaudits he has
since received and the immortality
which attaches to his name, but un-
fortunately in the light of historic
truth it must be attributed to one of
those historic fictions which so often
electrify the world.
Side by side with this delightful
piece of fiction stands out the dry
and stubborn facts of history as re-
ported in the official records.
We quote from the Messages and
Papers of the Presidents" Vol. 6,
pages 264-69
In his report to Congress Mr.. Lin
coin says that he dispatched the Sec
retary of State with the following in
structions:
Executive Mansion, Washington,
Jan. 81, 1865
Hon. William H. Seward, Secretary
of State:
You will proceed to Fortress Mon
roe, Va, there to meet and informal
ly confer with Messrs. Stephens, Hunt
er and Campbell on the basis of my
letter to F. P. Blair, esq.,, of January
Is, 1865, a copy of which you have.
"You will make known to them that
three things are indispensable, to-wit:
Il. The restoration of the national
authority throughout all the states.
3D.. No receding by the executive
of the United States on the slavery
question from the position assumed
thereon in the late annual message
to congress and in preceding docu-
ments.
"3. No cessation of hostilities short
OF an end of the war and the disband-
ing of all forces hostile to the Gov
ernment.
You will inform them that all
propositions of theirs not inconsistent
with the above will be considered and
passed upon in spirit of sincere
liberality. You may hear all they may
choose to say and report it to me.
You will not assume to definitely
consummate anything.
Yours, ETC.,

FRIGHTENING SKIES

Mr. Hardin Colfax, the Washington
correspondent of the Atlanta Journal,
sees nothing but good times ahead.
Listen to this:
All records of business activity
in the United States, including our
wartime prosperity at It's height,
bid fair 10 be excelled within the
next six weeks, in the light OF facts
presented by the American Railway
Association as TO the volume of the
cOuntry'S business at the present
time and It's rapid expansion within
the past fortnight
The movement of freight over the
country's carriers is swiftly drawing
to a new high figure. Settlement Of
the coal and rail strikes has given
impetus it has received since the be-
ginning of the business depression
nearly two years ago.
Everything the railroads haul has
been dumped into cars and hauled
away-except for here and there a
commodity of seasonable demand
within the past two weeks in greater
volume than at any time within a
year During the week ending Sep
tember 2, latest period for which fig
ures are available, more than 100000
car loads of freight rolled over the
rails. That figure registered a new
high mark for 1922 1t was 915 per
cent of the biggest weeks work
American railroads ever performed.
The only limit. apparently, to the
magnitude OF the industrial revival
which has come so suddenly to the
country is the ability OF the railroads
