Republican Clubs
Called to Meet in
Chicago January 10

Mrs. Charles w. Weis. jr., new
president Of the National Federation
of Women's Republican Clubs, today
announced a meeting of the execu-
tive and advisory committees of the
organization in Chicago, January 10.
Mrs. Weis, who is from Rochester,
N. Y, will take over her new office
at federation headquarters here this
week.
Republican women leaders from
% States and the District of Colum-
bia will attend the conference in
Chicago which will be directed to
plans leading toward the 1912 con-
gressional elections, Mrs. Weis said.
Republican women everywhere
have indicated their eagerness to
establish militant onward march
for the preservation of American
principles" she stated today. Lead
ers propose to direct immediate
studies and activities along construc-
tive policies advocated by Wendell
Willkie and Republican leaders in
Congress.
Reports reaching our Washing
ton headquarters point to an alert
and serious acceptance among
women voters of their responsibility
for Americas future. They are
facing facts, in the tackling of poll
cies and problems. This Is particu-
larly true in matters pertaining to
national defense and Federal ex-
penditures"
The federation, organized in 1898,
will begin the year 194i with a mem
bership of 325,000 in hundreds of
clubs In 80 States. Mrs. William H.

Hans Jacob, Who
Fled France, Tells
OF Debacle

That France will arise In the
future "gloriously rehabilitated"
was predicted In an address before
the American Association OF Uni
versity Women yesterday by Hans
Jacob, recently arrived from France.
Reared and educated in Germany.
where he served for a time as
interpreter for the government in
Geneva and other posts, Mr.. Jacob
later became a French citizen be-
cause of his lack of sympathy with
Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime
In Paris, Mr.. Jacob was con-
nected with the French radio anti
Hitler propaganda before the Nazi
conquest and was in France during
the occupation and until two months
ago, when he escaped through the
aid of sympathetic French secret
police.
Although. he said, a complete
explanation of the French collapse
is impossible, Mr.. Jacob attributed
the debacle to several causes ap-
parent before the Germans con-
quered the nation.
Nazi Intervention in Civil War.
In my opinion he said, there
was no war between France and
Germany. 1t was the armed inter-
vention of the Germans in a French
civil war which had been brought
about by Nazi influence"
Hitler, the speaker declared. took
advantage of all existing antago-
nisms in France and planted agents
and fifth columnists" in the coun-
try who supported all anti-parlia-
mentary and anti-democratic trends
and currents. Much of the French
press was subsidized and the Nazis
owned 80 per cent of the French
news reels, he asserted. Much of
Hitler's strength. he contended was
built up on democratic weaknesses.
The most dangerous of all the
fifth columnists. Mr. Jacob said,
were the unconscious ones" These
included members of society, pros
porous merchants and capitalists. he
added. Many of Frances most bril-
liant intellectuals failed tremen-
dously." Mr.. Jacob charged. by not
combating Nazi propaganda as
powerfully as they might have done.
Citing instances of continued trade
relations between France and Ger
many after war had started. Mr..
Jacob said eight German forts on
the Siegfried Line were receiving
power from French power plant
The ironical situation was extended
even further, he added, when the
German commandant complained to

third 81 per cent? of all refugee!
from Germany were Christians, 1
lower proportion than in the pre-
vious years.
Answering the fears of some
people that even this handful Of
emigrants may further aggra,
vate the mountainous unemploy,
ment problem in the United States
the Quakers point out:
Every human being is a con.
sumner. He eats; he wears clothes
he requires a place to live.
Every immigrant who comes to
America is as much a consumer as
anyone else, and his wants have
to be supplied by American bust
nesses and factories This is
especially true of the women and
children among the refugees. Per
haps about a third of them will
become wage earners."
Thus of the net gain of $4,000
Germans in the past six years,
about 5000 will become or have
become wage earners in the United
States. When this 5000 is con-
trasted with the $4,000, 900 unem-
ployed, one sees what an infinitesi-
NAL effect such immigration really
has on the job market. The 5000
might have gone elsewhere and
still the overwhelming number of
American citizens unemployed
through no fault of their own
would be not one step nearer jobs,
England's Experience
But far from decreasing the
number Of jobs available, the
Quaker organization points out
that the German emigration may
INCREASE the number of jobs
available here, as it has actually
already done in England.

Distinctions and Determinations
What is the difference between
race distinctions and race dis
ordinations? The two words are
not synonymous but are used in
that sphere by a great number of
writer's. Let US illustrate:
A southern state has law that
Negro and white children shall not
attend the same schools, but each
shall attend separate schools. If
the school year is equal in length,
if the ability and numbers of the
teachers are the same, the school
equal in size and accommodations
equally janitored, the teachers
receive the same salary, a race dis
tinction prevails but not a dis
elimination.
If in the same state the Negro
child has a three months school
year and the white child seven; the
Negro teacher has a high school
education, the white teacher col
lege trained; the Negro school a
taxpayer shack, the white school
made of stone; the white teachers
receive $3.50 a month salary, the
Negro teacher fifty dollars; the
Negro child drinks from a bucket
"a gourd for a cup, the white
child from a fountain; race dis
elimination is the proper word.
