More Jews Needed.
Safe for Life.
For the President.
Imagination Cures.
BY ARTHUR BRISBANE

Tie boy that sees AT the neau OF
the class a Jewish boy that
couldn't speak English two
years before can't very well
"despise" Jews.
There are not quite fifteen
and one-half million Jews in the
world. Only a little over three
millions in the United States. 1t
would be better for this coun-
try, for manufacturing, distpib-
uting, and general pacemaking
II there were six millions here,
instead of three.
"BIG BEN" GARN YER,
seventy-eight years old, poor
and worried, is not able to work
at his trade any more. He
wants to be taken care of the
rest of his life. And he WILL
be taken care Of at the public
expense.
Reading that, you know that
"Big Ben" is not a carpenter,
bricklayer, blacksmith, or worm
out bank clerk.
His trade is thieving. He
has spent fifty years in Jail,
chiefly for petty larceny.
Too old and slow to beg and
steal successfully, he commits
q minor crime and asks the
Judge to sentence him for life.
He will go to prison, where a
warm bed, sufficient food,
medical care, and clothes will all
be free.
What will history say about
q civilization that would take
care of an old, worn-out man
whose trade was stealing, and
wouldn't take care Of him if
he had spent his life working
for the public welfare?
PRESIDENT HARDING, as
head of the Army and Navy,
responsible for the country if
war should come, this interests
you. Russia doesn't like US,
and one Of the greatest soviet
factories is devoted exclusively
to all kinds of experiments in
flying machines. The Russian
government takes up new ideas
and TRIES them. It doesn't
make the inventor struggle,
strive, and starve to death.
Russia is now trying a ma
chine with wings that flap like
a birds wings. It may not
work. But if they should get
something much better than
anything we have, we might
be sorry for our lack of polite
ness in trying to collect on
RussiafT bonds that American
bankers foolishly bought.
SOTHERN, the able actor,
and his wife, Julia Marlowe,
have been treated in Paris by
Mons. Coue.
Coue makes you treat your
self. When you wake up in
the morning you must say sew
eral times over, Every day,
in every way, l am getting
better and better"
Is isn't bad formula, under
certain conditions. For in
stance, if your disease is more
or less imaginary, saying to
yourself that you are getting
better and better may help
Among Americans fifty per
cent of trouble is based on
nerves, and fifty per cent Of
nerve trouble is based on think
ing too much about yourself.
To say 81 am getting better
and better" every morning and
repeat it several times makes
YOU imagine at least the right
thing. It's better than saying,
T believe l am not going to
live very long,"
But hard work, freedom from
conceit, and a good doctor when
you really neeG one is better
than Mons Coue.
WE are almost a nation with
a past. The Merchants Asso-
ciation of New York will enter
tain firms one hundred years
old. Twenty-Five accept the
inyitation-the Oldest, The Bank
of New York, founded in 1884;
the youngest, the Chemical
National Bank, founded in 1923.
OF the twenty-five old concerns
ten are banks. Included are
newspapers, real estate, silk,
furniture, groceries, publishers,
cleaning and dyeing, furriers,
and insurance companies.
IN FRANCE this year the
number of births fell 10000 be-
low last year. In Germany the
number Of births increases. In
a short time Germany will have
five times the population Of
France. What will happen
then?
You need not wonder that
the French are worried. But will
a dominating French army now,
and Germany temporarily bank
rupt, prevail later against a
five-to-one German population?
