FOOLING THE BOY “This story begins ‘Pandemonium Teigned.’ Who was Pandemonium, “Well, if Pandemonium rained, 1 he ae . guers he must be the clerk of the leased by the Japanese in California have been jreclaimed by them from the desert? If it were at all leonsiderable it would furnish the basis of the most effective Japanese propaganda, but it is not men- tioned, because it is infinitesimal. The Japanese in | California is not the pioneer going out into the desert reclaiming the waste spaces. He is the man who comes behind the pioneer and reaps the fruit of his long years of pioneering labor. It is the American who has won the waste space—the Japanese steps in and takes the prize. As for the Japanese being among our most law-abiding people, we may excuse that little jest on the ground of the editor’s innocence. The more serious folly of the World is in supposing that there can be no valid objection to the Japanese because they are so industrious. The teredoes that chew up the piers and piling are even more industrious, but that doesn’t make them any more desirable. It is not en- tirely a question of how hard a man works. There is some- thing in how he works, how he lives and whether he pre- vents others from getting a living. If California were populated entirely by Japanese, would it be any consolation to America to know that they were more industrious than the American-born citizens they had displaced? Precisely the same silly argument was used when this state was fighting the menace of the Chinese invasion. We were told that the Chinese were among our most industrious inhabitants. They were, but they were working us off the map, and so will the Japanese if we permit them to do it. The editor of the World says that he finds it “difficult to become excited over the prospect of 87,000 Japanese sub- merging more than 3,000,000 Caucasians, even of the Cali- fornia variety.” He probably would have been as calm when the-first contingent of Goths started on Rome, the first horde of Mohammedans began their invasion of Europe or the first troops of the kaiser went over the Belgian border ~—that is, if he had been separated from the evil by the width of a continent. —S. F. Bulletin. “Propaganda by Deed” The long-sought “truth about Russia” ta beginning to show itself the testimony of those who have gone to Russia, sympathetically clined toward the soviet experiment, Duckworth has told in The of hi@ conversion and, in striking vindication of his statements as he beheld ft in operation in Russia, tutional rights in general should not be resorted to ts paralleled by another warning from Fussell, who says, in The Nation, “But while I cannot advocate world revolution, I cannot encape from the con- clusion that the governments of the leading capitalistic countries are doing everything to bring it about. Abuse of our power against Ger. many, Russia and India (to say nothing of any other countries) may _| well produce those very evils which the enemies of Holshovisra most dread.” The autocratic government of Lenine ts made possible largely by outside pressure. Russia, blockaded, fighting and famished, will endure Bolshevism for the same reasons that, during the world war, every nation surrendered its democratic principles to military efficiency. Re | move this pressure, and the counter-revolution undoubtedly will ensue. America fears Bolshevist propaganda, but has permitted bureau: cratic oppression of precisely the same variety that wrought destruc- tion of the Russian government. War on freedom of speech and of thought ia the most effective means of cultivating the underground forces of revolution which, after a century of thwarted effort, at least threw Russia into chaos. The policy personified by A. Mitchell Palmer is a policy of “propa: ganda by deed,” far more dangerous to American institutions than the unrestrained rantings of thoumnds of soapbox agitators. To the British publicist most virulent in his. denunciation of anything “radical,” Lenine has said he would like to award a medal and a resolution of thanks for his work in behalf of world revolution, It is difficult to credit the Palmerites of this country with suffi- clent intelligence to perceive that they may profit continuously by imitating the methods of the czars agenta, but Russell states that in “Bolshevist Russia,” opposition is crushed without merey, and without shrinking from the methods of the czrist police, MANY OF WHOM ARE EMPLOYED AT THEIR OLD WORK.” This should be of cheer to those who seem determined to Russianize the United States and to invite the deluge. Their jobs, after all, might be safe, whatever happened to the rest of us. The Tindall Bill Tt would be surprising, indeed, if the proJap element in frained from attacking the Tindall bill. may be sure that every Jap lover in the community is keenly watching the fate of this measure en the journalistic apologists for Japanese penetration have, at length, been forced out in the open. Of course they tell you it is not because they love the Japs that they are out to defeat the Tindall bill, but because it is monopolistic and that | the small white hog rancher must be protected. That sounds nice. But facta are facta, just as “pies ts pign.” The small | white hog rancher, and the large white hog rarfher, at present, have no chance against the Japs who have monopolized thé collection of restaurant garbage, All the whites put together do not get 20 per cent of the total amount. The Japs get 80 per cent and more. The Tindall bill will’change the situation. It will give the whites the restaurant | garbage, and the small white hog rancher will get far more protection and assurance of his needs than with the benign Japs. It Is to be noted that the caterers’ association now is advertising that it intends to make no contracts for the collection of garbage except with | whites. The catere however, have waited for the last moment. Until now they have been dealing with the Japs, undermine thelr white competitors, accepting extortionate prices garbage, as they have themselves odmitted in their own publication. Finally, it should be remembered that the Tindall bill is duplicated in many other cities where the Jap question is not involved, It is adopted there in the interests of the hog industry. No question can be raised about the city’s right to this sort of regulation, ‘The city is officially | charged with tle collection of garbage. Neither Japs nor caterers deal jing with Japs have the right to challenge the city’s proposal to dispose of garbage to ite best advantage. : In Switzerland One big profiteer has been caught, anyhow.
