and bring human faculties into
harmony with the magic powers
it has discovered, and to bring
them under control.
Keeping pace with the pro
gress Of civilization is a hercu-
lean task. There is not one new
thing to learn; there are thou
sands. There is not one new
condition to which we must
adapt ourselves; there are thou
sands. And if we would keep up
with the parade we must keep on
learning and keep on adapting
ourselves to ever changing con-
ditions.
We have loosed a lot of powers
in this world and we can't con-
troll them. We don't even un-
derstand them. And therein
lies the trouble-we don't under
stand our weakness. We delude
ourselves with the thought that
we are the masters, that we are
in control, and we fail to rec
ognize our inability. We are in
the position of a man who knows
nothing whatever about automo-
biles but thinks he knows it all
and tries to drive a machine
along a busy thorofare.
How can we change this and
bring about an equilibrium
which will steady the world !
Certainly not by changing our
religion, not by disregarding our
laws or destroying the existing
social order. The thing to do is
bring them up to date. Obvious
ly, what was desirable and neces-
sary one hundred years ago may
be neither necessary or desirable
today. And what we need today
may not be wanted one hundred
years hence We must catch up
with the procession.
This cannot be done by con.
.demning modern tendencies that
now express, their protest on
every side and try, even thru
costly experiments, to find a way
at least to the beginning of a
solution. We cannot expect to
make the world stand still until
we catch up with the times.
When we begin to realize that
the average man possesses only
a child mind and that it requires
a much more careful and general
training, then we will have made
a start toward bringing the hu-
man race into harmony with its
surroundings.

OPINIONS
PERSONAL Local, National, International
IT'S a common complaint now
adays that young people are
Bs plcToR NEUHAUS

TTS a common complaint now
adays that young people are
4 unreliable, that they are
without stability and possess but
few Of the virtues believed to
have been so common in the
youth Of ages past. 1t also is
charged that in this progressive
generation there are only few
really capable and efficient per-
sons.
Startling as it may seem, of
these two assertions, only the
latter is true. The present gen.
Grafton not only is as good as
those Of former ages. but it is
even better. It is not and can't
be as capable and efficient for the
simple reason that requirements
have multiplied so rapidly the
average mental growth has not
been able to keep pace.
Only comparatively small
number of people are conscious
of the age in which they live.
They stiM apply slow, ox-team
methods to the lightning speed
which propels them thru the
whole scheme of living. The ma
jority Of present day people real
ly do not belong to this age. They
live in generations past and they
express it freely when they talk
of "the good old days" Some
are living one hundred and
others as much as one thousand
years behind the times.
It is true they live in houses
and wear modern clothes. If
they take all our wonderful in
ventions for granted they remain
so unconscious and ignorant of
their significance that they make
no effort to fit themselves into
newer surroundings.
If the entire population of this
modern world were dumped on
to another planet that had un-
dergone q different development,
conditions could not be much
worse. This of course, is an ex-
aggerated statement. But it
may drive home the necessity
fof d gigantic mental effort to
grasp the significance of our
rapidly changing environment.
Our whole social system is like
a great wheel to which we are
all chained. In former ages, it
revolved but slowly and even
then there were some who could
not keep up and had to be drag
ged along. Now, this wheel has
attained a greater velocity which
seems to have caught US unpre-
pared and only a small number
are able to keep up the speed
without moral or even physical
injury.
Our real progress is not the
result of today and yesterday
but it had it's beginning with the
invention of printing thru which
g greater knowledge was dis
seminated thruout the world.
It is five hundred years now
since Gutenberg invented NOV
able type. 1t will take another
five hundred before the human
brain will have fitted itself to
properly digest this invention

4. reasons have been
responsible for
this besides the usual activeness
during the winter months. No
doubt, the relief campaigns are
in measure responsible for this
as they have proven to be edu-
cational in a great many re-
spects and have given the Jews
of our country a greater feeling
of responsibility. Also, the de-
velopment Of the Zionist move
ment has helped a great deal.
The Zionist achievement has in
tensified in one part of our COM
munity the effort to. strengthen
our forces and although the ef-
fects are confined to only a small
percentage, stHl it is clear that
even when one part Of the COM
munity intensifies it's devotion to
an ideal, the area Of population
ultimately affected is also in
creased.
Another factor which has had
it's effect is the gradual promi-
nent part that the American
Jew plays in the world Jewry
and that we American Jews must
help our Russian brethren. These
and other things have given new
significance to our educational
drives. But side by side with
these there grows another Jew
ish necessity and that is an in
crease of Jewishness in the
home.
The nature Of Judaism as a
culture, religion or life force has
been this; that it has not been
merely a creed, or a philosophy,
it has been a mode Of life. Hence
the most characteristic thing
about Jewish life was the Jew
ish home. Unfortunately there
has been the tendency III Jewish
secular life to regard Jewishness
as a conviction or an education
and not as a way of life. In
other words while there is a
growing consciousness of need Of
Jewish education, there is not
yet the feeling that it is really
Jewishness into our homes that
must be brought most strongly
and continuously.
Mere education will not make
the Jew. Education is a very
necessary and essential part of
Jewish life but it is not the NOV
ing power. Jewish education
without the old intimacy and
warmth Of the Jewish life with
in the home will leave the next
generation cold and Intellectual.
The Jewishness of the coming
generations would only be sur
face Jewishness and not like the
Jewishness Of old.
The problem is quite diff
ficult one. In this age and gen.
Grafton, the religious forms Of
Judaism do not appeal to the
people as they did of yore. 1t is
necessary to have a revaluation
of Jewish values. The old in
tents and purposes of Jewish
formal religion must be trans
mitted to the new generation.
They cannot die because behind
their forms is living content.
But they have to be translated
into a new tongue. And above
all the Jewish home must abso-
lutely again become Jewish.

at Grace Dodge Hotel When
Trail Gets Too Hot.

The old saw about faint heart
and "fair ladies" applies also to
the owners OF faint hearts who fain
would steal milady's jewels. That
such is the case was illustrated
last night, to the satisfaction of
Mrs. A T. Undertake, fifth floor
resident of the Grace Dodge Hotel.
Last Saturday during Mrs. Tim
berlake's absence some one slipped
into her room and when that some
one slipped out few minutes later,
did so encountered by jewelry val
ued at 1900.
The police and detectives got on
the job. They questioned many en-
ployes Of the hotel, hoping to es-
tablish the identity Of someone who
was mysteriously lettering about the
fifth floor.
Their investigation began to get
warm. The warmer 1t got, the
warmer someone else got and the
result was that last night the
jewels were slipped back into Mrs.
Undertakes jewel case, whence
they had disappeared. The investi-
cation has been dropped.

Senator Copeland advised District

1T is an outlandish thing" the
Senator declared in reference to this
city's voteless status.
The association adopted a resolu.

RUHR WORKERS

Krupp Director Says Neither

BY B. PERSON.
International News Service.

ESSEN, Oct. 10.-"A volcanic ex-
plosion of pent-up passions by the
Ruhr workers seems inevitable an
important Krupp director told inter
national News Service today. He is
one of the few directing heads still
in Essen and requested that his name
not be revealed.
ST do not believe Premier Poin.
care has the slightest intention OF
putting the wheels OF Ruhr industry
back In notion" said the director.
IF the French really wanted res
toration, they had a chance of speed
ing industry up to normally imme
diateIy after the German govern
ment announced the cessation of pas
sive resistance.
France merely wants coal from
the Ruhr-the rest Of the Ruhr ..aT
go to hell so far as Poincare cares
Indeed, believe Premiers Poincart
and Baldwin at their recent meeting
in Paris reached an agreement upoT
the basis that France should get heI
coal from the Ruhr and that tht
German industries in the Ruhr aside
from mining, would be allowed t.
drift into ruin and annihilatlon
England has always been afraid
of an analgamation of French ore
and German coal interests. Eng
land would be glad to kill German
competition.
God knows what all this means
for millions Of workers. We will
be compelled to dismiss thousands
of workers almost Immediately as
it Is because Berlin's payments to
the Ruhr have ceased.
"Our own firm the Kruppsl is
now producing only 30 per cent OF
normal capacity"
The director then commented bit.
terly on Stresemann's policy saying
Berlin seems determined to let
us shift for ourselves. The gov,
eminent ordered cessation Of re-
sistance yet hesitated to say openly
to the workers, especially the rail
readers, that they should entel
service OF the French. So long as
Berlin does not say that, the work
ers, especially government EN-
ployes, cannot work for the French
because the French demand an oath
of loyal service.
1.-The situation IL terribly confus
ed. People here do not know~what
the French want and they know
just as little what Berlin wants."

STENACH film
SHOWS GLAND
OPERATION
Academy Of Medicine Sees
REGENERATION in Pictures
With Rare Results.

NEW YORK. Oct. I0.-For the
first time ii America the original
Steinach films were shown publicly
at the Academy of Medicine, No. II
West Forty-thirG street.
The films were made by the
scientific department OF the Uni
versum Film Company Of Berlin,
with the assistance and under the
control of Prof. Eugen Stomach. Of
Vienna, who invented the opera
ton for regeneration, or, as he
prefers to call 1t, "for the retarda-
ton of sentlity."
The presentation was made by
DR.. Harry Benjamin, of this city
first to perform the Stomach op.
Grafton in this country, under
auspices Of the German Medical
Society of New York, whose presi
dent, DIR. Ernest Danziger, was II
the chair. Many distinguished mem
bers Of the profession attended.
DIR. BENJAMIN read a paper on tht
Stomach treatment with the X-raN
as applied to women, which is not
touched in the films. He described
cases of six women more or less
benefited. Fun physical and men
tai yigor had been restored"
Plainly, the physicians, among
whom wece many women, were
deeply interested. The pictures
showed Steinacb's long-continued
preliminary research, including ex
periments On old rats, which be-
came vigorous and combative. They
made plain every detail of the op
erative treatment. Finally pictures
were, shown Of patients before and
after the operation, some of which
presented Remarkable contrasts.
