The peasants, after generations
OF poverty are now top dog in
hungry Germany.
No peasant is squeezed in the
pincers of declining income anil
an increasing cost Of. living. Be-
fore the war there was not a peas
ant in the region who did not have
a mortgage on his farm; now there
is none who has. What remains of
German sanity and strength, as
we'll as whatever remains there Of
it's former gold reserve and policies
of "frightfulness." abide primarily
with its peasantry now. While
there is hardly German work
man who makes 25 cents n day.
while from 40 to so per. cent of
Germany is undernomrished, while
tuberculosis and other pyeeminent
hunger diseases are spreading, and
no ordinary German has q cent in
the bank. and at best only a neb-
engeschaft, or side industry, the
peasants and junkers have this
year stored upon stheir estates the
greatest grain harvest in German
history, a crop. according to the
agent of@the United States depart
ment Of agriculture, of almost 49,.
100000 metric tons; Al per cent
more than last year: one-half ton
per capita per winter. A third of
Germany's foodstuffs has always
hitherto been imported. This
years bumper harvest is as large
as last years, plus last years i'm
portations. and a surplus still re-
mains that will enable Germany to
export food for the first time in
modern history.
But this very expectation Is the
heaviest cross yet laid upon the
vulgar German back. 1t is q finan-
cial opportunity for a restricted
class. The empty la-der OF the av-
erage German receives less consid-
Grafton from the average German
profiteer than the needs of Ar
menia. THE Century.

OUR WEST COAST AND THE
JAPANESE

Two friends may be as good
friends as men can be, having the
greatest possible regard and re-
spect for each other, but if one
should say to the other, Let us
take our own families, and live all
together in the same house in or
der that our friendship may be
strengthened" what would be the
answer? Undoubtedly the other
reply, THAT is not the way to
strengthen friendship. but to de-
stroy it. Our children might quar-
rel. our wives would certainly
disagree. We are two families, and
should remain distinct, side by
side, in harmony and friendship"
Such an answer contains no dis
like, no disrespect, but simply the
truth
One does not try to grow two
crops in the same field, though
they may be equally good. A coun-
try may he occupied 10y two dis
tinct races if one OF them is dOmi-
nan:, hut even then there are trou-
bles enough. On our West coast
there has been an attempt to put
two hitherto free and independent
races. who WE know will not
mingle, into the same territory
where the elemental forces OF caca
must compete i'm the struggle for
existence. Will that promote
peace? The party who thinks SO
might rs well pour blue and white
sGdlitZ powders into the same glass
OF water. and then say. Nov do
be quiet"
Trained in the school of neceS-
sity, the Japanese are economically
our smperiors. They have evolved
a civilization embodying good
methods OF living, by which they
can live we'll, and increase in num-
bers under conditions that would
mean starvation to most Of us.
They can supplant us on the soil,
| which means they can eventually
snpplant us entirely if we take
them into our country. That does
not mean peace.
When not ver-educated, man
differs from the late dinOSaur in
one important particular. He can
forsee his extinction. and act .ac-
cordingly. The people OF the Pa
cific coast see their finish il orr
entail races are admitted. 1t is Oul
finish also in the East, IL We only
knew it. There is not <disrespect
but simply determination on the
part of the coast people that there
shall be no equivocation in this
matter, and that the war of races
on our soil shall not be allowed tC

Jane Cowl, in Romeo and Juliet
is coming to the Murat for the week
beginning next Monday with the
original cast, following the longest
consecutive run in the history Of
the theater of this play in New
York.
Another fact that makes the event
even more noteworthy is that Miss
Cowl opened at a time when Broad
way was rather surfeited with
Shakespearean plays.
Miss Cowl, by the way, is also the
first American star for whom Lon
don appearance has been planned in
a Shakespearean role since Miss
Marlowe and Mr.. Sothern went
abroad in 1907.
Other American stars have since
impersonated Juliet, including Viola
Allen, Laurette Taylor and Doris
Keane, but none has been surround
ed with SO elaborate a production
or so brilliant a supporting cast as
the Selwyns and Adolph Klauber
have provided for Miss Cowl.
