In tears he makes nis surrender. So far the privilege of tears seems to have been reserved only td those who steod in the way of the wild-eyed mouthers on the rule of the proletariat, but we may vet see Lenine and Trotzky join the blub- | besing Bela. The communistic regime initiated by Bela Kun was thoroushgoing though it did not reach the wild ex- cesses that marked the rise of the pro- letariat dictatorship in Russia. The Hungarian hope in a Bolshevist gov- ernment was based upon three as- sumptions, according to Bela Kun's minister of justice; the imminence of world revolution. the military sup- port of Lenine and the Russian soviet republic, and the Hungarian prole- tariat’s capacity for self sacrifice. But the world revolution dii not materiniize. and the same failure is new threatening Lenine and Trotzky.

Pitiable is the plight and the crisis one of life and death for the Jews in Europe, according to the report of investigators returning from there. Nothing but instant and generous help from American Jewry can avert the danger that the race in Europe may be destroyed, say these men who have seen thé conditions. For the purpose of centralizing American Jewish aid and coordinating it with the relief efforts put forth by England, France and other countries, Felix M. Warburg, the Wall street banker and head of the joint distrib- ution committee of the Jewish relief fund, has called a conference of Jew- ish leaders to determine what can be done. ' They will have put before them the reports of critical conditions in_east- ern Europe, thé Balkans and Pales- tine, by Jewish commissioners, whose first-hand observations are confirmed in a recent statement given out by the American Red Cross. This statement was contained in a dispatch from Frank W. America, one of that or- ganization’s agents in Warsaw. “The American Red Cross party writes Mr. America, “visited scores of cities, towns and villages, from big towns like Brest-Litovsk and Bielos- tok to the smaller villages like Ka- mien-Kaszyrski, where there was not a single doctor for 3,000,000 inhabi- tants and not a house where at least one was not down with typhus, tu- berculosis or smallpox. The people were subsisting on a sort of bread, an awful black substance, madé of bark from oak trees. aeorns, chaff and heather, but containing ne particle of flour. In some villages this so- called bread was made a little more palatable with potato peelings. “We passed from village to village and everywhere found famine and dis- ease. Many villages were absolutely uninhabited. There was not a living thing in them ‘except the inevitable carrion crow, and we wondered why he hovered there. It was as if a blight had passed over the whole land. UNDILUTED AMERICANISM. The 39 senators who signed the| round robin on March 4 declaring against the surrender of American sovereignty are still standing strong for undiluted Americanism.- Through their patriotism, their courige and their intelicctual independefce -they have aroused the nation to thé need of the preservation of the constitu- tional right of congress to raise ar- mies, declare war, impose import du- ties, and regulate immigration, all afi which would have been surrendere tley have r.where eisc to louk for help éxcept In the capacity of the Russian proletariat for self sacrifice, which is apparently inexhaustible. Such a similar array of troubles as brought Bela Kun to tears and sur- render may yet overwhelm Lenine, whose troops have been fed on suc- cesses and have yet to meet a danger- ous enemy such as Budapest saw in the approach of the Rumanian army. Moscow cannet fail to feel the effect of the defectlon of Hungary from the Bolshevist column, with the allied blockade and the threat of allied oc- cupation. Bela Kun's dictatorship has been succeeded by a socialist ministry at Budapest headed by James Peidll, a former “typographer, edilor and med- el worker. ‘The latter, judging from the description, seems to be a man| Hampshire; of varied accomplishments. He is al- =0 said to be cotirageous and of sim- ple habits. He seems to be accepta- ble to the allies, and therefore, al- though the government over which he presides is, in theory, probably al- most as radical as that of Bela Kun, there is some hope that the Hungar- ian chaos may now be restored to order. AMERICA’S OPPORTUNITY. Team-play between American bank- ng institutions, American manufac- turérs and producers and the govern- ment of the United Statés will place this country in a pesition of unchal- lenged leadership in the affairs of the world through putting Eurepe on its féet financially and industrially. Through thése four factors can the pressing needs of Europe for food‘raw material, coal and machinery be sup- plied, says Charles H. Sabin, pfesident of a big New York banking company. Food for the hungry in Europe and work for the idle must be provided if they are te maintain stablé" political conditions and begin production. He recommends as one of the measures that eould be taken immediately the, extension of credit, under proper se curity, to foreign buyers, and that this government should assume whatever rsk is invelved. With the endorse- ment or foreign banks and foreign governments this should be negligi- ble This is a time when all thought of profits, particularly exerbitant profits, répresented in ocither commodity prices or interest charges, should be forgotten, and the simplé necessities of thé situation faced. Cur first and single duty now iz to restoré the world t6 normal conditions. If we aré able to do our part properly in bring- ing that about, the question of profits will be cared for in the future. This country is facing the greatest oppor- tunity and the greatest obligation in its history, and if the sacrifices which have been made in the war are not to be in vain, we must rise to meet them. HONORING PERSHING. America will give hearty appro- val 16 the president’s réqueést to con- gress that the permanent fank of gen- éral, the highest military rank in the Américan army shall be conferred upen General Pershing. As the leader of a victorious host in the world's greatest war, “Black Jack” Pershing is the outstanding figure in the Ameriéan army. and in honoring him America will honor the ideals and convictions for which she fought. ‘When Llcyd George soundeéd the call for America to send men and vet more men to thé aid of the allies whoem the foreseen German prepara- tion threatened to enguilf, it was General Pershing as head of our mil- itary establishment who saw the wa t6 meet this call with all thé availd ble force then at his disposal and it LT A T oRY VAR Ve RTINS by the unconditional acceptance of President Wilson's pet League of Nations. The democratic cry of ‘“reactionar- jes” fell flat when the list of the 39 came to be inspected. Teo many of them could not qualify in that class to make the charge hold water. On the list were Hiram Johnson of Califor- nia, who had been the running mate of Theodore Rooseveit on the pro- gressive ticket in 1912, Poindexter of Washington, who had been promi- nent in the councils of the progressive party, Borah, McCormick, Cummins, Lenroot, Gronna and others who are recognized by their constituents as far from ‘“reactionary.” Moreover, among the signers were men who had just been elected to congress. Among the men of that class were Moses of New Edge, from the presi dent’s own state; MeCormick of Illi- nois, who defeated James Hamilton Lewis, the president's spokesman; Phipps of Colorado, Spencer of Mis- souri; Newberry of Michigan, who had defeated Ford, the president’s spe- cial choice for senator from the Wol- verine state; and Ball of Delaware who had defeated Saulsbury, thé head of the democratic campaign in 1916. On the issue of Americanism against internationalism the 39 are still standing fast and the fact that desires for an amendment of the league have originated among mem- bers of the 39 has rniet weakened their insistence upen ~maintaining American 1hdependence. EDITORIAL NOTES. Old shoes will soon be too valuable to be thrown after the bridal party. Bela Kun qualifies as a Bolshevik. He was making off with a cool mil- lion when driven from Hungary. The man on the corner says: A few more investigations décided upon and the supply of congressmen will run out. —— Speed maniacs naturally become peevish when inconsiderate pedes- trians get run over and spoil a fine run.

Budapest, sceme of anarchy and carnage in connection with the re- ported ousting of Bela Kun and his communistic government, presents a | pathetie contrast to the carefree days of such fetes as that of St. Stephen's before the war. That historic celebration, when men wore slit skirts and the women donned twenty petticoats is described in the following bulletin from the National Geographic society, based on a communication from DeWitt Clinton Falls: % “For who St. Stephen was and why he was thug honored we must go back some nine hundred and odd years in Hungarian history, from which we gather the following information: Vailc_came to the throne of the Masg- var Duchy in the vear 997. He ap- plied for and received the title of Apostolic King from Pope Sylvester II, and was crowned in Budapest in_the year 1,000, under the Christian name of Stephen. He did much for his countrymen to bring them into the established church, and founded throughout his kingdom churches, schools and convents. His adminis- tration was a wise one, and so firmly did he deal with the attempted up- rising of the ‘Old Magyar Religion” party that when his death occurred, in 1036, he left his country entirely converted to Christianity. So much had he done for the advancement of the Christian faith among the wild hordes of Eastern Europe, and added to civilization of his subjects, that he was canonized and gladly pro- cliamed by the Hungarians as their patron saint. “When the Saint passed away, in 1036, one of his hands was amputat- ‘ed and embalmed, and this sacred relic_reposes in the court chapel of the Royal Palace in old Buda. Adorn- ed with many handsome rings, it is kept in a crystal casket, set in a beautiful golden reliquary ornamented with many precious stones. In a spe- cial shrine behind the high altar, it remains for 364 days in every year, where it can only be seen by the roy- al household and those having special permission. On the three hundred and sixty-fifth day, the one day set apart to do honor to Saint Stephen, it is taken from its resting place, and with great pomp and a most brillion es- cort is carried in a procession to the old Matthias Church for a special memorial service. This is the only time that the reliquary is visible to the peasants and the people of the humbler classes, and they come from all over Hungary on that day to do homage to the sacred relic, as it is carried through the streets. “Fancy our famous traffic squad shutting off Thirty-third street, that the Waldorf-Astoria might accom- odate its extra patrons at overflow tables placed outside on the asphalt!

Then all were in their working clothes. arrayed in all The men had retained their flat hats, but had generally adorned ithem with flying ribbons of the national colors—red. white and green. The white divided-skirt-like trousers were not ornamented on the bottoms of the lezs with fringe. or coarse lace, and the dark working coats had been laid aside. In their place were gala ones. always col- ored—soft browns. reds and greens —elaborately braided with different colored cords, brighter than those worn Saturday. Their waists were generally of white or light cotton | material, sometimes gaily ornamented with coarse colored embroidery. It was the skirts that were the unique things about the costumes. Of the brightest colors, they weré accordion- plaited, and stood out in the most re- markable manner. How they ac- complished this was a mystery to the ladies of our party, until our trusty guide and interpréter had been In- terviewed. From him it was learned that no Hungarian peéasant woman considers herself properly dressed for a gala occasion unless she has on about twenty petticoats.” OTHER VIEW POINTS Charles Evans Hughes, In his review of the peace treaty situation points out the common sense of the situation. The Senate, as he shows, can suggest mod- fications to the treaty and can make these modifications a part of the reso- lution by which the treaty is adopted by the United States. If these ideas, thus injected into the treaty by the United States, are agree- able to every other nation, it will make no difference. If the ideas are objected to by any other nation that is signatory to the treaty then the treaty will fail and must go back to the peace conference. It is up to the United States senate —if really bent upen changing the treaty—to take thi§ responsibility and g0 as far as it likes.—Bridgeport Post. Everybody admits that the present system of appropriating the public money by Congress is unscientific and wasteful. But there is an equally gen- eral confession that reform is diff cult.
