Jew. Although less than 1 per cent of
the German population consists of Jews,

The only political party which has no

As for the communist leaders in Ba
varia, for instance. Toller, Levlne, Mub
sam, Landauer, Llpp, and. In Tact, all
that I met in the April soviet. days in
Munich.: were ' Jews. : The prodo ml nance
of Jewish leaders in German politics Is
du to the - obvious fact that the Ger
man Jew has a quicker, brain, a more
volatile temperament and more personal
vanity than the pure German qualifica
tions which- seemingly go to make up po
litical leadership.
, This predominance. ' however. Is de
veloping - a distinct antisemUio move
ment in Germany. In Berlin there- is
one 'violent anti-Jewish newspaper
whose mission in life is to blame every
thing on the Jews. In Munich there are'
at least three such publications, not to
mention daily handbills . inciting the
populace against "trouble making Jews.'
JEWS MUCH BLAUED
In half an hour's walk through
Friederichstrasse one is handed bills
accusing the Jews of starting the revo
lution and of being at the bottom of
all political disturbances in the republic.
These handbills call upon the populace
to protect itself against the "vicious
Bolshevist Jews," and recommend boy
cotts and even violence. - Then ' there
are other handbills thrust under one's
nose . which - attack v wealthy ' Jews,
bankers and the like, blaming them for
the ' failure . of ' the revolution, caning
them war profiteers and accusing them
of fattening on the : suffering and
miseries of the nation. A week ago
small, riots were . staged in the north
end of Berlin against the homes and
shops of , wealthy Jews. . Other rtots
hare been staged in the east end of
Berlin against (he homes of poor Jews.
"DOWIT WITH JEWS" CRT
In Hamburg during the recent bread
riots, "Down with; the Jews" was the
1 cry- raised against -the war profiteers
by the mobs. In Munich this same cry
was raised against the pacifists and
Socialists by the mob three days ago,
with the - result that v two Jewa were
killed. A friend from Munich informs
me that the conservatives are issuing
an enormous amount of antlsemitic
propaganda as a means of sidetracking
the new revolution brewing among the
Socialists in that city. "i..J':i.y:-

Paris, July 7v Jules Camben.V who

France's v ablest . diplomat, v makes - the
following statement regarding the
treaty cf Versailles : .
"The truth is that the value of all
treaties depends en their application.
Napoleon in 1807 thought he hadpluced
Prussia at his mercy for all time, but
Prussia found in the very treaty he
imposed the beginnings of her rise,
since under ' the pressure of necessity
she found therein, the idea of the milt,

reenter the struggle in 181J and which
were the foundations of her greatness.
It is therefore important, if we want to
pluck the fruits of our: victory, that we
keep our hand on the application of the
treaty which ends the war with Ger
many. BTBEHGTK HELD ESSENTIAL
"This is essential." It requires that
the country should take a realistic view
of the y conditions . necessary for ' the
maintenance of our power and should
persevere in the effort to fulfill them.
Our military institutions should not be
weakened and our alliances should hot
be shaken. Albert Sorei. who was a

the i stares, and that the rights they;
stipulate never survive the conditions)
in which these rights have been estab
lished. This is a truth of experience,
and 'to imagine that once victory is wort'
and a treaty concluded we need make'
no: further efforts to gather its fruits'
would be' to repay ourselves with empty
words and be too self indulgent.
DIFFERENT FHOai H1J ,
f "The- peace just concluded can b
compared only to that concluded in 181S
which ruled the world's fate during CO
years. The work of ISIS perished be
cause the sovereigns and diplomats gath
ered in Vienna had calculated and equil
ibrated the material forces of the states
but had taken no account of the moral
forces of revolution. . What is original
in the peace Of 1919 is that for the first
time the victors, gathered to decide the
fate of the world, began by proclaiming
that they desired to make a peace of
justice, a peace of ri&it and to repair
past iniquities and to bind up the cruel
wounds from which so many peoples
have suffered throughout the ages.
LESSON IX JUSTICE GIVEX
t ' "Then ' arose the theory of historical
reaurrecttone. The Poles, Csechs, Rou
manians. of Transylvania, Jugo-Slavs,
Armenians, Arabs and even the Greeks
of Asia Minor desired to make the
dream of Mlthrldates live again. Un
doubtedly nobody thinks that all the in
justices of Aha past will be repaired
but the awakening of these oppressed
nationalities and the spectacle of their
resurrection are themselves & lesson in
justice.
"Peace with Cermsny is first. Cer
tainly it is the most Important and the
only one which Interests public opinion,
but it is not the whole peace. There re
mains to treat with Austria. Bulgaria f
and Turkey, to settle the near eastern",
question and to give these young na
tions, already jealous of their Inde
pendence and already ambitious, bounda
ries and statutes. The work still to be
accomplished demands much light and
good will from the allied and associated
governments."
