1 WHAT LOSS OF WAR MEANS TO GERMANY ‘Would Be Scorned Without and Unbalanced Within the Empire Amsterdam, June 27.—(Corre- spondence)—A writer in the Junker organ Kreuz-Zeitung of Berlin draws ¢ a dismal picture of the consequences to Germany of a peace without in- creased power and annexations, He says: “Seeing that after the natural exhaustion of such a giant war. Ger- many could not soon contemplate a fresh struggle, Great Britain and America would think, after a Schelde- * man peace, they could treat Ger- % many as they liked. In other words an Anglo-American world domination would be firmly established and Ger- many itself would be regarded as a second rate power, Great Britain thereby in reality attaining its war aim. “Belief in unlimited mlilitary and maritime superiority by Britain and North America would henceforth dominate the world. But a reaction, , through an unsatisfactory peace, on our internal political life would be the worst result. With the first joy at the ending of the war the question would be earnestly asked—what have we really fought for, why have so many Germans fallen, so many been crippled, why these giant taxes, this ruined German welfare? The ground ig then prepared for disintegrating social democracy."” Crops of Hungary to Be Seized. Paris, June 29.—Announcement that the new Hungarian crops will be selzed bv the government of that country as soon ae harvesting and threshing is completed has been made the president of the Hun- garian food administration bureau, ?according to a despatch from Buda- pest. Farmers will be permitted to retain only sufficient of the crops for their private use and for seed. The monthly flour allotment for the rural population is expected to amount to 37 pounds for each person. Salvation Army in China. London, June 30.—The Salvation Army definitely has commenced its work in China. says General Bram- well Booth, the commander-in-chief, in the annual statement of that or- ganization. Gratifying progress is reported by the Salvation Army in India and steady .progress in Korea, Japan and the Dutch East Indies. In the latter fleld the army now is caring for 3,700. lepers. Results of the army’s work throughout the far east are reported satisfactory. TREASURER'S WORDS Claim Facts Given Hoover Were Badly Distorted (Spectal to the Heruld.) Washington, July 13.—The Nation- al American Suffrage association has issued a statement to ponit out that the remarks of Mrs. Henry Wade Rogers of Connecticut, its treasurer, concerning ‘“‘women and waste,” reached Herbert C. Hoover with a dis- torted significance, juiging from his " reaction to them. Mrs. Rogers' argument was not di- rected at Mr. Hoover or the focd ad- ministration but at a disposition on the part of the masculine public gen- erally to chercher la femme in the food crisis, a disposition which if over-indulged might los= sight of y certain major considerations of con- gervation and distribution for which men and not women are responsible. As chairman of the National Ameri- can Woman Suffrage associati committee on agriculture and produc- tion, Mrs. Rogers has stirred women th2 Atlantic to the Pacific on ubject of increased produc- tion and decreas:d waste. Thou- sands of women are reporting to her constantly from farm and from garden and from kitchen. Ske knows what she is talking about when she comments on the problems with knows thelr sentiment on the subject: she knows the conscientiousness of which women are confronted in the work of stimulating production: she their effort. Being the wife of a very busy man. Judge Henry Wade Rogers. of the United States circuit court, she takes entire charge of thelr two farms In N. J. It was as a practical farm- er and a fundamental economist that she made the chief point of her sontention, namely, that with the consumer paying the highest price in history for fruit and garden truck, quantities of these foods are rotting on the farms for lack of any adequate tystem of distribution and marketing. vear to requote Mrs. ‘with millions of new gardens the country every effort should be made to take care of sur- plus production so that not an ounce of food shall be wasted."” In view of language like that it is gifficult to understand how what Mrs Rogers said could be interpreted into a discouragement of economy. As a matter of current history the National American Woman Suffrage tion has built up an extensive and in- tensive system within {its organiza- tion for the exact purpose of drilling its members and women generally in food production and food conserva- tion. All its efforts along these lines have been placed at the dispesal of the government through the woman's committee of the National Council of Defense and it stands committed to take up and further to the utmost of its ability Mr. Hoover's own pro- gram just so soon as he projects one and hands it on for general action. associa- | 'PUBLIC SCHOOLS AS | DEMOCRACY'S AID Colorado Educator Says They Have Helped Mould Our Soul Portland, Ore., July 10.—The world- crisis, as it affects the United States, and the part this country is piaying in it, is a test of the public school, ac- cording to Mrs. Mary C. C. Bradford, Superintendent of Public Instruction of Colorado, as expressed in an ad- dress before the Klementary section of the National Education association here today. Taking as her subject ‘“The Public School and the Nation in 1917,” Mrs. Bradford declared that if the United States carried into effect its avowed policy of ‘righteousness to all hu- manity,” and ‘sacrifice for all na- tions” it will be “because the Ameri- can public school has, in some degree at least, fulfilled the august task con- fided to it by the commands of demo- cratic government,"” “If, after this great war to end w- shall be over,” she continued,” Ameri- ca functions as the supreme idealistic force in the reorganization of the world, it will be because the public schools have given to the nation a higher vision than the world before has seen. “This is the great task of the public school in 1917; this the mighty effort that must be made by the school peo- rle of today."” “Pointing out that non-Americans had declared the public school sys- tem of this country the ‘supremely distinctive feature® of the American cevelopment, Mrs, Bradford declared: “A new vision must come to the school world of America; a vision that reveals it to itself as the mould- er of the soul-stuff of the nation in the likeness of the ideal humanity.” Comparing the public school to the Cacket of the Holy Grail, she added “Iet uso ffer ourselves to the nation as one unit in the great army of those who stand ready to give all at the nation's summons; let us fit ourselves for the high enterprise of keeping safe the imortal draught without which the national ideals must perish.” AMERICA GENEROLS 10 WESTERN ASI More Than $309,000 Contributed in Month of June New TYork, July month of June more than $309,000 was contributed for the relief of starving people in Western Asia to be distributed by the American Com- mitteg for Armenian and Syrian Re- lief. In this total are included sev- eral large gifts received by the com- mittee within the past few da: among them were an additional $1 000 from the National Armenian union of America; $5,000 each from E. S. and Mrs. S. V. Harkness; $10,- 000 from the Boston committee; $15,- 000, from an anonymous giver who had previously contributed nearly $100,000 and $1,000 donated by an Armenian woman whose brother, a prominent and well-to-do merchant in New York city had given her a check for this amount for her birthday. With his approval it was immediately indorsed to the Ameri- can committee for distribution abroad. Bishop MacInnes As Organizer. The movement to relieve all those who are suffering in Syria, without re- gard to race or creed has lately re- ceived a new impetus from Bishop MacInnes in Jerusalem, temporarily in Egypt, who describes conditions throughout the land as more than appalling. Committees are being formed in England under the patronage of Princess Christian, all Bishops of the Angelican church, the archbishops of Canterbury and York, and prominent laymen like Lord Bryce. Sir Henry McMahon, who formerly represented the English government in Egypt, is chairman of the London committee, and at a great meeting held in the Mansion House $250.000 was collect- ed, to which another fifty thousand was added later, The committee formed in Egypt is under the direction of Bishop Mac- Innes who already has made good progress in the work of organization. The intention is to assist those suffer- ing from lack of food, medicines and clothing and distribution will be made by persons conversant with the cuntry and its varving peoples, just as soon as the way is opened. Passports, these days, are more pre- cious than gold and infinitely harder to acquire from a reluctant govern- ment. But there are passports and passports—these signed in ink with red sealing wax, which are good as far as they go, and other kinds such as little metal disks carried on watch chains and bearthg the family crest of the owner. Of course this kind can- not take its owner into a port of entry, but it may be more potent once that barrier is passed. It is by the magic of this Aladdin’s seal that Mr. Levon H. Harpootlian hopes to rescue his wife and three children, bringing them out of Tur- key to America. An Armenian by birth, Mr. Harpootlian has been an American citizen for many years, in | business in New York. This he is giving up to sail immediately in an attempt to rescue his family caught in Turkey, from whom he has had no direct word for many months. He is also commissioned to gather up as 3.—During the maay as possible of his relatices, near NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD.
