Through His Paper

Independent. to be published Dec. rs,
replies to an attack made upon him by
Oscar Straus, New York philanthropy
list, in an address before the National
Conference of Palestine, Nov. /, by re-
terating charges previously made.
Straus was quoted as saying in part
that Mr.. Ford had been "misled into
"a campaign of SANDER against the
Jewish people" and had asked that
Ford select eight members Of a COM
mittee Of 10 to weigh the facts.
Through his article Mr.. Ford charges
that "the International Jew today is
in direct control of all financial CEN
tiers of government, including the Unit
ed States Federal Reserve Banks sys-
tenn"
Mr.. Ford asserts that the "Interna-
tional Jew pulls so many strings in
business that no banker or business
man feels safe to oppose him." that
"he either owns the press or controls
it so that only pro-Jewish facts are
ever admitted to print" that 'he con-
trolls the revolutionary elements of the
world on one hand and the ultra-con-
sentative elements on the other. so
istic Russia and in capitalistic Eng
land, not to mention the theatre, the
motion picture or agriculture"

Mr.. Straus that Ford is using his

has been somewhat mentally de-
ranged, was taken into custody Sun
day afternoon and brought to Jail to

Skowhegan, and Everett Of Norridge-
wock, were sent to his home on the
Waterville road. Upon arrival they
were met by Yale, who is alleged to
have pointed f1rearm at them. He
was overpowered and brought to
Skowhegan. 1t is expected that a
hearing will be held Tuesday before
the Board of Selectmen and two
medical men and as his mind is said
to be much impaired the meeting will
undoubtedly result in commitment to
the State Hospital.

and donations sent in, besides being
used for the distribution of Christ

on Of relief work among the poor

wealth for vicious ends and is foment-
ing race hatred" the article replies:
las to philanthropy, it was a great
thing 100 years ago. Genuine philan-
thropy today means the payment Of
such wages as will render philanthropy
unnecessary.
1T may be that Mr.. Straus revo1u-
tionized the wage rate paid to en-
ployes of the department stores which
he controlled and that he reduced all
excess profits on goods, but If SO he
has neglected to chronicle 1t in the
long list of his philanthropies printed
in Who's Who
Unfortunately for our full appre-
citation of that list, this magazine al
ways has held that there Is some
thing shameful in receiving Charity
and something shameful in offering it.
We have contended that the truest
charity was the effort to make charity
superfluous."

London, Dec. 11-(P)-victorian
furniture, once in demand by home
lovers and later much sought by coll
lectors, has sustained a set back and
tons Of 1t have found their way to
the carpenters storehouse, or to the
fireplace. now that coal Is scarce and
dear, due to the miners dispute with
the mine owners.
Thousands of pieces Of former
priced Victorian sets of all kinds, the
pride of many drawing and bed
rooms years ago. have lost most of
their pep, and are not in demand any
more even in second hand shops.
Numerous once wonderful horse hair
sofas, now that there has been a re-
vulsion against Victorian furniture,
are being chopped up for fire wood,
along with the great sideboards.
