ROWD thousands of human beings into the foul confines of a mediaeval prison. Let this mass of humanity be forced to live for months nnder conditions of cruelty and neglect. On the phrsical side, could the result fail to be plague and pestilence which must menace the health of surrounding millions? Is it otherwise when mental and moral disease germs are devel- ‘oped by confinement and oppression extending backward over genera- ‘tons of a race or poople? Is it any wonder that Russia is to-day not only socially and economically sick itself but a source of virulent infection menacing the social and economic health of other nations? On the other hand, is it unjust or unreasonable that other nations, even while they do their utmost to help Russia to a new lease of life, should at the same time protect themselves against the dangerous germs that emanate from the Russian sick room? Does any wise doctor or nurse do less? ‘ An organization ealling itself the Russian Federation of the Socialist Party in the United States met in this city lnst January with the avowed purpose of “amalgamating in the United States Bol- sheviam, I. W. W., Anarchists and Radical Socialists” and of “causing ithe radicals in sixty-five labor unions throvzhout the country to break away from the American Federation of Labor and support the Lenine and Trotzky propaganda.” Can this organization and others like it, including its ally the Ukrainian Federated Socialist Party of Ohio and Pennsylvania, be| segarded as anything but disease spots attacking the fibres and tissues | of the American body politic? Can the Brailovskis, Mushinskis,| Kazushkos, Spulska, Rareluks, Rybaks, etc., whose names are found | among the active offiners of these organizations, be freated otherwise than as 80 many dangerous Russian germs which the United States for self-preeervation must either segregate or sweep out? Even thongh America continues to treat Russtfa as a curable | case, with aid and sympathy for all Russians who are helping the cure, | can the people of the United States be justly exposed to unlimited contact with Russians whose avowed aim and purpose is to spread the Russian disease?

EDITORIAL PAGE FRIDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1919 ~The War After the War. . By Ji H. Cassel GERMAN LABOR & woRKING [Qhrs HAIRMAN STOKES of the New Jersey Republican State Committee gets an excellent and timely example in the follow- ing statement: | “T have declared it to be the policy of the State Committee that no criticisms or attacks should be made especially against the President. The policies and measures of the Democratic Party are legitimate topics for discussion and debate, but our President is in the sick room and he has the gympathy of every patriotic, warm-hearted American and the hope for his speedy recovery. I have made it a rule for our speakers to treat him with the consideration and respect due to the head of the Nation, as becomes a dignified campaign.” It will be to the everlasting discredit of present Republican lead- ership in the United States Senate that it has recorded no formal expression of regret for the President's illness or taken pains to dis- cuss his condition on any higher plane than the promptings of cloak- ‘room and corridor gossip. ‘The Senate of the United States might be expected to be the first body im the country to maintain standards of official courtesy if mot kindness.

A pretty girl's fortune teller is her mirror. Courting nowadays may be summed up in a question mark, a dollar mark, and a period, He who flirts and runs away will live to flirt another day. A girl with two escorts is like a ship well manned. All religions must yield the palm when Cupid ascends the pulpit. Cupid composes; woman suppos man proposes; marriage disposes; at- fnity interposes, and divorce closes Lucky for many that the Lady Moon is the only eternal feminine that can keep secrets.
