How much the newspazers did to sustain the spirit of nations it may be impossible to measure accurately but that their power to this end was ightily exercised, snever mcre so than in the late world war. is the thought expressed by Lérd Northcliffe in his “Golden Pdace Number” of the Tondon Mail. This notable English publisher says In France, although there the strap >f the censorship muzzle was pulled very tight, in the United Statess in this country. in the Dominions, the newspapers had more to do with the organizing of victory than the politi- cians. President Wiison could not have united the American people as he did nor could he have speeded up the training and the dispatch of their fine army to Europe, had he not been sup- ported and explained at every step by the most influential organs of publlc opinion in the United States “I do not mean to suggest that our heavily censored newspapers made no mistakes curing the war. How could it be possible to comment day after day, and to interpret obscure signs, and to search out more energetic methods of warfare throughout four vears, without occasionally being wrong?

They knew that the surest method of bracing the people up to bear ill tidings and to stiffen their backs to stimulate them to a greater effort was, not to spoon- feed them, but to tell them the truth. danger the newspapers kept the public nerves steady, and it was, as Marshall w | Findenburg propLested it would be, the nations with the steadiest nerve That won the war. This is high praise but it is well deserved and is spoken with the voice of authority when it comés from Lord Northcliffe. FRANCE COMING BACK. All through the war we heard con- stantly that France was “bled white” by the drain made upon her man pow- er, a suggestion that was indignantiv repudiated by the responsible heads of the French government, who called it nothing more nor less than German propaganda. The same answer is now made by Maurice Casenave, ' minister plenipotentiary and director general of the French public service in the United States. to the representation of France sitting M sackcioth and ashes amid the ruin that war has wrought. It is admitted that France's losses in man-power have been enormous, but 11,000,000 peasant farmers remain. France has over 7,000,000 horse-power to develop from her streams. She has great resources in cheaper grades of fuel which she is beginning to use. With the output of the Lorraine mines she wili presently have a huge sur- plus of iron ore to export—prospec- tively 21.000.000 tons. Alsace will richly- vield her potash to fertilize the farms. Many spindles have ceased to ply in the invadeg territory, but even now there are half a million spindles at work in Alsace alone. Then there are France's vast colonial holdings to be considered. These cover a greater been restored. About a quarter of the agricultural area invadeé has been reclaimed from the barbed wire, the shells and the trenches.

American Jews have responded with Ity to the cail for help from their cken co-religionists abroad and in the eight months up to the end of Au- gust there had been expended $893%8.- 037 of the funds contributed in America. But the need is continuing and the plans are already laid for the expenditure of even larger sums in the Jewry of Eastern Burope from retion. Tt the work of saving urvivers of the race abroad and plans already formulated provide for a_total of $35,000.000 to bedspent. Tn Poland more than anywhere else has the need been found for heip and more than half of the meney used was distributed there where food and health conditions were the worst.

The hospital. which cannot begin to accommodate all those suf- fering from various diseases induced by starvation, is still without windows or doors and any meang of heating. The conditions are such that it is diffi- cult to see how humanity can endure suffering to such an extent. The num- Dber of homeless children on the streets a pitiable aspect of the ravages of war. It is to answer such a call for help that the gerferous heart of the Jews of America is called upon to respond. There will be no doubt of the answer. . EDITORIAL NOTES.

And If he couldn’t be, why, mother could be made to see my point. But she is just as bad as he is now.” 2 “They won't even argue it with me.” the young woman went on, “and that shows they know they are wrong, doesn’t it, Jack?" “I should say it did,” said the young man. “What's the use, I point- ed out to my father, ‘of my going to college and wasting four years of my life when I ought o be getting estab- lished in business?’ “But he just growled and said 1 had howled for college and college I was going to have, and what in thun- der changed my mind all of a sudden? he said he had never noticed any great devotion on my part to business or any yearn for responsibilities and, anyhow, 1 would be worth about $10 a week on any job at present.” “I think that was perfectly brutal,’ said the pretty girl indignantly.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Congressman Ricketts’ Figures. Mr. Editor: An editorial printed in The Bulletin on August 9th has brought to our attention some figures as to supposed profits made by the Chicago packers. The article savs, “The five big packers would probably do aimost| anything if they could get some con- trol of what goes into the Congre: stonal Record.” It then cites ~ome figures introduced into the Record by Congressman Ricketts, and remarks. “These figures do not agree with the packers’ statements about the pack- ing business.” The figures do not agree, bec. they do not square with the fact. he earnings of the so-called “Big in 1917 are said to have been $80.000.000- As a matter of face they were $7: 584. 1 1018 the earnings are said to have been “something like $100,000,000.” As a ter of fact they were $51,631.317 or a per cent. profit on sales of 1.6 per cent 7 We are at loss to understand how these fifty-one millions are to grow to a hundred and fifty millions in 1919. However, no matter how large the gross profits m seem, they repre- sent the total of five independent and ¥igures which have the Federal se been subject to audit by rade Commission prove that the av- ge profit per dollar of =ales is about two cents, and the average prc it pér pound of product sold, including by-products, has been a fraction of a cent. The Bulletin editorial also repeats assertions as to the increase of a thousand dollar investment in each of the five concerns during the last few vears. These figures are ridiculous and were issued by stock promotors. For example, it is stated that $1,000 invested in one of the concerns six years ago is now worth about $20.000. As a matter of fact the increase has bheen about $3.000- Just as flagrant inaccuracy is evident in the reference to other firms > If we may torial courtesy, espass further on edi- we should like to give| the real facts about a widelyv-circu- lated statement of the Federal Trade Commission whi is quoted in Con- gressman Rickett’'s remarks The Trade Commission says that packers handle 7:5 products. Yet in Part 1 of the commission's report, only 639 are listed. Of these 77 are canned meats and derivatives of meat are sausage room produc 141 are animal by-products 3 are soap products; are meat cuts: S are leather pro- ducts—a total of 317 items which are so closely associated with meat pack- lv constitute a ing that theyv actua single line of actlvity. More striking still_is the fact that 62 items are classified ferms listed| as'products. Ts it reasonable, for ex- ample. to list sea foods as an article handled—especially when each sea food is noted separately? Also, 70 items named by the com- mission are materials purchased in large auantities by the packers for supplies and for repair work. They are not sold at all. And 22 items are raw material used in_manufacturing and not sold at all. Tifty-two more of the items are duplicated in the list In other words the list is outrage- ously padded in order to make the number appear big. As a_ matter of fact, all the activities of the packers could be adequately summarized under a dozen headings. Everything handled by the packers is handled because of economic rea- sons. We believe each item helps to make a greater saving available to the consumer, and represents a full use of raw materials and facilities. The packers extend every help to full and impartial investigation. There are mo questions about the industry which they will not try to answer, and on which they will not give com- plete facts. We believe the absolute honesty of their attitude will appeal to the American sense of fair play. Yours very truly, Bureau of Public Relations, Ameri- can Meat Packers’ Associataion, W. W.

When the boys of Tahiti came marching home from the World War the fantastic native dances, the “him- inies” or folk somgs which have been compared to Wagnerian opera, and the ancient fire walking ceremony, were revived io welcome them. These customs, all but suppressed by civilizing French influences, were among the most interesting practices of Polynesian peoples, according to a bulletia from the National Geograp'ic Society Tahiti women were cxtolled by early travellers as being the most beautiful in the Pacific Islands; thei men still are fine physical specimens and the carly civilization of this iso- ted people has been one of the won- ders of science,” says the bulletin. “The Tahitians knew some of the consteilations, navigated by the posi- o. the star: mace progress in music which is startling, vet preserved many savage customs, such pluc ing an eve from a human being to be placed in the mouth of a priest as an acceptable offering to their gods, and encouraging their women to suckle dogs, pigs and other animals held in high veneration.” The bulletin then quotes from heard old time songs and saw natiye the late S.

In the first song, at ‘the end of each verse, all stopped suddenly, ziving the effect of the ‘couac’ of the opera singer. In all the vei there was an under- tone beneath the song. This under- tone continued alone for a few seconds at the end of each verse. after the superposed song was finished, and died out separately and siowly, like the drone of some great bhagpipe.
