JANUARY 31 GERMANY AND WILHELM o " Immediately after the allied council had asked Holland to surrender Wilhelm Hohenzollern, the cables announced that "profound anxiety and astonishment reign in Pan German circles in Germany over the official demand of the Allies for the extradition from Holland of the former Ger man emperor." The German people in general seem to have been shocked and angered by the demand. Why they should take it in that way must remain a mystery to non-Germans. They should not be surprised, because they have been told all along what was to be done. Moreover, they themselves have a legitimate grievance against their former Kaiser, becuase of the tragic plight he got them into. And legally, if not ethically, it is their duty to help the Allies to get him. Germany agreed, as one of the terms of the peace treaty, to surrender Wilhelm and other malefactors guilty of bar barous breaches of international law in their war activities. .If Wilhelm were in Germany today, it would be incumbent tn the German Government to turn him over as a matter of course. Inasmuch as he is a fugitive from Germany, it be came necessary to apply to Holland, which as a sovereign nation has the right to disregard the request if it chooses. What Holland may refuse the Allies she would not be likely to refuse Germany, since it is peculiarly Germany's affair. If Germany, therefore, were inclined to do her duty and fulfil her pledges, in letter or in spirit. Germany herself would ask Holland to extradite Wilhelm, and would then turn him over to the allied court for trial. That, however, is probably too much to expect. Ger many prefers to take advantage of a technicality, with Hol land's connivance, and protect her own worst enemy be cause he is a German. o THERE'S SOMEBODY AT HOME - TODAY'S EVENTS The city of Milwaukee enters upon its seventy-fifth year today.

Probably tastes have changed ilue to costs. Kast Oregon ian. , Gum and Tobacco We wonder how many of our read era know that Ave times as much money is spent for chewing (rum as for education, and "5 times more mon ey spent for tobacco than is ipetit oil our schools.

I Social Theorist ' So around and around, like spir rels in a rage, social thorista revolve. In the vocuum world in which they are there is little resistance to their 1 whirling.

Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the Navy, will be the speaker at a dinner to be given in New York today in be half of the Zionist Organisation in America. Portland Post Master The primary impulse behind the re-j moval of Postmaster Myers was the consuming desire of the leaders of the democratic party, or most af thrm, to get rid of him. His rapacity for making trouble was unlimited; his gift of unpopularity was great. He was a party liability, and they have striven long and hard to convince the administration at Washington that it must act, if the party in Oregon was to be saved from complete demoralisa tion. Oregonian. Between three and our lillion tea chests are required for :he In J.; n tea crop each year. The wood ued in these chests is of a very jpecial ki.id. It must contain no sap that would corrode the tea-lead in which the tea is packed; must be free from any od or, as tea will take that up r.-adily, and must be well se-isoned so that it will not warp. Thrift Year - This year of grace, 1920, is to lw' a thrift year, which meani 1'iat we shoald buy less, and to that panose! the present value of the Am:,rir.tn dollar is admirably suited. Tel-Tram Future Handbook .The future handbook on twentieth century politics will contain this def inition: "Parlor Bolshevist: A .tare species of the politico-genus homo, originating in the spume of the great war. A plush covered, polit ical anemic, singular in appearance and perverted in principle, with more money than brains and a tendency toward loose morals." Portland Telegram. It is difficult to find people at home, complains a census enumerator. He says he has had to make repeated calls in order to finish his job. He was a city enumerator, in a large city at that, and prabably what he says has only a limited ap plication the country over. He declares that in apartment houses especially he made call after call and could not get audience with a majority of the residents listed there. He deduces therefrom that we are becoming a nation of rovers, jazzers and home-shunners. Of Course the enumerator is Ofnprali7incr tnn KrnoHlu from limited observation. That he found few families at! home in the modern apartment house is not an unexpected ! uisciosure. ine wans 01 tne ordinary ctfy apartment are not very companionable, and even the most confirmed home Dody is to be pardoned if the street or the movie palace af fords more appealing attratcions. But the enumerator should ask for a transfer to a small town, to a country sec tion, or even to a more distinctly residence district of the big city, and give himself an opportunity of reviving his faith in our home folks. Beneath a million hospitable roofs he could find at any hour he elects to call a wife, a mother and a fam ily awaiting the.return of a beloved worker or wanderer.
