TO TELL The PUBLIC

Business men of Minnesota who are tired OF
being shot at by Famer-LabOr politicians have
set out on q statewide campaign to rceducate the
public 10 the value of business and industry.
II seems that for some years MlnnesotanS have
listened to leaders of the dominant political party
in that state blame all Of its ills the great cor
porations wealthy industriastS and business in
general. But group of business leaders from
the small towns has taken the initiative in organ
izng and launching a campaign TO drive home some
of the simple truths about the necessity of main
tanning healthy business conditions in their state.
In answer to some Of the rabid politicians who
have attacked business on the assumption that MINI
nesota is a farm state and business doesn't matter
the new organization points out that only II per
cent of the states income is directly agricultural
And to the howls about big business being the
ruination of the state il shows that only II plants
in Minnesota employ more than 1000 workers.
This representative group of Minnesota business
men have thus undertaken to answer the wild raw
ines Of some of the offce-seekerS in language that
the average voter can understand. And the move
is timely If the voting public were better IN
formed as to the elementary economies OF pubic
well-being il would pay less attention to the Vacui
ties of some job-hunters who ride into public Office
by the simple process of attacking the enterprises
that have made this country the best place IN the
world to live in spite of occasional drawbacks

1.-The younger and more radical element in the
army and navy-it was this element that was re-
sponsible for the murder of Taxa HASH and other
great japanese moderates-iS riding the whirwind
1t appears that the military command does not
dare to punish these people for egregious breaches
of discipline
"All this also throws y light upon the claim of
the Japanese that they are in China, not because
they have any quarrel with the Chinese people, on
because they have any territorial ambitions--Such
is the official propaganda merely because they
wish to restore order in China, and free China
from the Vaccinations of irresponsible politicians
and irresponsible military leaders. 1t all breaks
down to the argument that irresponsible japanese
frebrandS are engaged in freeing neighboring
country from irresponsible leadership, and thus be-
comes idiotic.
1.-THE Japanese government has accepted Iuli
responsibility for the attack-so the question now
is: Is the Japanese government in position TO ac-
cept such responsibilities and what does it amount
to?

BECOMING AN ABSURDITY

The Tokyo government is ready to make offer
TO the American government of just as many apol-
ogies as the latter might feel disposed to demand
In fact, Japan's supply Of apologies seems to be
as inexhaustible as they worthless.
The process of asking for and receiving them Is
rapidly becoming useless and almost absurd en-
terprse
Japan seems to have sort of sense of respon-
sibility no conscience and no character so long us
il is held within the spasm of its war-lust.
No confidence is to be placed in anything its
statesmen say.
No outrage is to be- conceived that its warriors
will not commit.
Japan is an insane government as brutal as
primitives and as souess as barbarians.

IT'S STOCKINGS

Christmas time is nearly here
The needs Of children are in
our thoughts.
It's Just what can we give 10 them
Or what with our money can be
bought.
I'm not SO old. Just SiXty-twO
The years have gone a-pacc.
But still remember when ]
hung
My stocking by the old fire
place.
I've thought and thought what
I'd like best
TO give the youngsters of to-
day.
I've wondered what they need the
most
And this is what I'll say:
Old Santa, give them stockings ;
They need stockings, stockings;
Mother. give them stockings;
Daddic, they need stockings.
They start to school with coat
and cap
And gloves and scarf and muff
But my, those blue spotted knees
TO stand the weather, must be
tough.
So please, dear Santa, start the
mill
That fashions closed so tight
And turn out stockings by the
score
In time for Christmas night.
And may they be on every tree
And may they be on every tree
In church and school and home
And every where in our free
laDd
Who're: Santa choose to roam.
"I'm sorry for Adam. He had no
ma" "i
heard a child once sing the
rhyme:
"l'm sorry for the child with the
little old sock

So please remember what to get
It's stockings, stockings, stock

And surely you'll be glad you
bought
Your children good warm stock

INSURANCE CUT
LAID T0DR|VE

The National Bureau Of Casualty
and Surety Underwriters has
credited Washington's crime-pre-
vention program with helping to
lower local insurance rates. Eff
fective today, substantial reduc-
tions in the rates for residence,
burglary, theft, robbery and lar
ceny insurance, and for personal
holdup insurance in the District
of Columbia, will be in force.
The reduction for residence in
surance will amount to approx
mately 18 per cent, and for per-
sonal insurance, 1915 per cent.
The bureau stated:
'"AlthOugh other important
factors enter the situation, the
reductions are certainly one in
dication of the effective crime
prevention program in force in
the District of Columbia terri
tory. This program provides
one reason why the latest avail
able experience reported by the
casualty insurance companies
writing these cOverageS in the
District Of Columbia shows an
improvement.

underwriters contention that in
the last analysis the public
makes its own insurance rates"

RABBI ISRAEL

Two great obstacles must be re-
moved to bring about peace be-
tween Jews and Arabs in Palestine,
Rabbi Edward C. Israel, of Balti.
more, told more than $50 members
of the Seaboard Zionist region in
conference here yesterday at the
washington Hotel.
First, the speaker pointed out,
the Arabs must diSpel the unjusti-
fled suspicion that the Jews are
seeking to drive them out or sub
jugate them. The remaining OBJ
stacle is the duty of the Jews, he
declared, saying that the Jews
must bridge a gap between two
widely different, civilizations.
A quota to rebuild the Jewish
homeland was unanimously in
dorsed by members who approved
efforts being made to raise $4,-
100000 as a National United Pales-
tine Appeal fund. ZioniSts of the
District of Columbia pledged $40,-
900 Of this sum during the present
year, while representatives of the
organization in several Seaboard
States also set up specific amounts
which their organizations would
undertake.
Laying particular stress on youth
groups as an aid in the efforts to
expand the affiliation of American
Jews with the movement, Rabbi
Israel said:
Jewish culture is a cOmpati-
bic element in the democratic
structure Of America. Jewish
tradition is essentially demo
cratic. You must realize that
your affiliation with ZiOniSm
makes us better able to continue
this culture"
Rabbi Israel pointed out that
there is a cooperative way of life
for both Jews and Arabs and that
when this is developed peace will
be accomplished.
