HOLD ALL WARS UBIQUITOUS
Why the Mennonites for Four Hum
bred Years Have Been Wanderers
Over the Earth.

Religious pilgrims, thousands Of
them, wandering countless miles from
one country to another, seeking a land
where they may obey the dictates Of
conscience.
All this has the flavor of bygone
ages. One is reminded of the fight
Of the Hebrews from Egypt and of the
wandering Of the pilgrims 300 years
ago. II is somewhat startling to dis
cover that pilgrims for conscience
sake exist today. And yet, remarks
the Boston Globe, 10000 Mennonites
from Manitoba have been making ar
rangements to leave Canada, cross the
United States and settle in a land of
promise of their own which they have
purchased from the Mexicans.
Since 1895. when their sect was
founded in Switzerland, the ancestors
of this branch of the Mennonites have
been wanderers on the face of the
earth. They stayed for a couplesof
centuries In the German Baltic prov
inces, then they moved over into Rus
STA for another 100 years. Half a
century ago they took up land in
Canada. And now they are again on
the move. The whole tribe Is to cross
this country In special trains and set
tie on great tract in Chihuahua,
Mexico.
The reason given for their depart
ure from Canada is their dislike Of
the law which requires English be
taught In their schools. II is more
likely that there Is "A deeper cause.
A question of language has scarcely
the power To drive people from one
wilderness to another for four centu-
ries.
The Mennonites hold strictly TO an
affirmation Of the iniquity of bearing
arms. This branch could not stand
the beginnings of German militarism.
They fed from the Russia of the car.
They are now trying to find a spot
on the earth where they will not be
obliged to swallow modern national
ism.

who now directs the railway admins-
tration. asserts that it viii be neces-
sary to establish a special police force
to stamp it out. Djerjinsky first caAe
into international notice through his
direction OF the counter -revolutionary
organization knowrS as the Cheka dur
ing the Red terror period in the sum-
mer of 1918.
He recently denounced the railway
employees as spectators and traffiker7
who should be Jailed. However. it is
difficult to understand how the rail
road men can be expected to work
without stealing, for trainmen have told
the corresp spondent that their pay
amounted to only 5000 Soviet rublcs a
month. This is equivalent to 90 Amer
lean cents. less than the price Of a
single pound of black bread.
The American Relief Administration
is protected against theft by special
guards and the Bolshevik government
makes good all losses of American
foodstuffs. But even the knowledge
that detection probably will mean
death has not prevented thieves from
stealing American supplies.
