the persecution of the Jews,
and that the reports have
been propaganda. We
may safely put that aside.
It is not true.
More significant, the Ger
man Ambassador in Wash
ington has informed our
Government that there will
be no more persecution of
the Jews. Assuming that he
acted on instructions from
Berlin, we may conclude
that even in a dictatorship
there is value in "a decent
respect for the opinion of
mankind"
Meanwhile, in America,
men of all creeds and races
are proceeding with their
plans to protest against the
revival of the savage prac-
tices Of the dark ages, any
where.
The American embassy in
Berlin is now engaged in
preparing a full report,
which will not be propa-
ganda, on just what has
taken place, and on just
what is to be the policy Of
the dictatorship toward the
Jews.
It is to be hoped that the
outrages committed were by
irresponsible fanatics act
ing independently Of the
government and that these
have now been taken in
hand; for Germany is too
great a nation, and the Ger
mans too fine a people, to
be internationally disgraced
by the fanaticism of a few.
The Bill Is
An Experiment
The farm relief bill has
passed the House over
whelmingly and it remains
to be seen what will happen
to it in the Senate. In the
House the opposition OBJ
jected to "haste. :" For II
years the farmers have been
rushing toward utter ruin
with nothing effective done
to save them and nothing
seriously attempted, and
the complaint Of haste, ;"
now that their ruin is al
most complete, smacks Of
irony or cruelty.
Others, in the opposition,
sought, with a demagogic at
tempt, to array city against
country. If American states
manship has not learned bet
ter than that, it is hopeless.
The talk about harm done
to mill towns is absurd ;
since the loss of purchasing
power in 100000 people
on the farms is primarily re-
sponsible for the bread lines
in the mill towns; and the
restoration of farmers to the
purchasing class Will put
these men in the breadlines
back into the mills.
Some others complain that
the plan will increase the
price of farm products. If
we Of the cities imagine that
the farmers are going to
continue working from dawn
to dark to produce food for
us at less than cost we are
due for the observation of
an alienist.
The bill is an experiment
and may not work out; that
is conceded; but nothing
will be achieved unless
something is tried.

dealing with an abnormal
situation, and no one will
contend that it is not better
to have work for a year on
the terms given soldiers than
to remain in the breadline
and dependent upon charity.
The money necessary to
meet the payment at this rate
of 25O,O00 men is now on
hand. No new taxes are re-
quired to raise the needed
funds.
Nor is there any point to
the complaint that the wage
rate will fix the American
standard of wages. No more
than the wage paid soldiers
in the war fixed a wage scale
for private industry.
The average American
worker would rather have a
Job assured for a year at $50
a month with food, shelter,
medical attention, than live
on the crumbs of charity;
and the plan proposed is the
best that can be offered to
meet an emergency.
