The "Sick Men " of Europe.
S ir Harry Lauder, in the Elka Magazine.
WE USED to speak qf Turkey as
the "Sick Man of Europe.” To
day all the nations of Europe—
victors and vanquished in the
great war—are sick—woefully and
dangerously sick. There Is a cure
for this sickness, but It Is not to be
found In the chancelleries, where
Jealously and hatred, suspicion and
land lust still prevail. 'It Is a cure
that must start at the bottom and
progress upward. It will never begin
at the top. The reason for this Is
evident. The diplomats do not know
what Is the matter with them; the
common people are beginning, dimly,
to understand.
How sick Is Europe? In some
cases nigh unto death. Take Aus
tria! One can almost hear the death
rattle! And Hungary Is almost as
bad! To the people of this once
powerful dual monarchy life has be
come a pitiful struggle for existence.
Confidence In the world—and In one
another—has been lost. The peas
ants hate the dethroned nobility, and
those who attempt to rule can barely
keep their feet on the edge of the
precipice, owing to their sick and
reeling brains! Aye, Austria and^
Hungary are sick. And In all the
Jilgh places of Europe there are no
physicians to heal them!
Germany is sick! How sick only
those who know and understand her
Inner life can realize. Germany is
suffering from a fever that mounts to
dangerous heights. Bhe Is sick mor
ally and physically. She Is still suf
fering from the moral poison Instilled
into her blood by the Nietzsches and
Von Bernhardts—and, physically, she
Is on the verge of collapse!
Russia in ueitriums.
Russia Is slek! Just now the fever
In her blood has developed Into a case
of blood pressure and uncontrollable
delirium. Russia's illness began a
blood lust that still resists all efforts
to reduce it. Russia is sick on
theories. The mtnd of Russia—or
rather the minds of its self con
stituted rulers—conceived an idea of
government that only a mentally sick
man could conceive. This idea of
government has made an entire na
tion sick. There is a cure for this
illness, but the nature of the cure has
not yet dawned upon the men who
have supplanted the czar.
France is sick. France’s sickness
might be described as "exaggerated
fear”—fear of a restored and revenge
ful Germany; fear and suspicion of
Great Britain dominating the world—
and especially the Near East. Fear of
Germany has led France to insist
on immediate reparation, when it
would be to her real interest to await
the time when sick Germany has re
covered her health. The sickly fear
of British dominance in the Dardan
elles has caused France to take an
attitude that in the future will re
turn again and again to plague her.
Kemal’s destruction of the Greek
armies, made possible, it is charged,
largely by French guns and ammuni
tion, will be regretted in gallant
France long after that brave people
has returned to normal health!
Italy is sick! Between the radical
ague and the fascisti fever, she is
fighting for her life. Her leniency
with Mustapha Kemal will not save
her. Badly is Italy in need of a
physician.
Britain Sick of War.
Great Britain is sick from high
taxes and much blood letting, and
doubly sick from the loss ofViarkets
made inevitable in the aftermath of
the great war. If she has been will
ing to forget Germany’s wrong doing
it has been because she realizes that
under normal conditions Germany is
a great market, and the “Tight Little
Isle” cannot exist without Interna
tional trade. At the Dardanelles,
Great Britain has tried to prove that
she was atill hale and hearty by in
terposing a barrier between Turkey
and Europe; but the people have been
too sick of war to show any enthus
iasm for a new war in Asia.
Turkey seems to have had a tem
porary return to health. But this is
deceptive. Vurkey is still an Invalid.
Her sickness verges on insanity. The
killing of Armenians, Greeks and
other Christians in Smyrna revealed
how sick she really is. She may get
Eastern Thrace and Adrianople. but
this will not make her well. The In
sanity of blood lust and religious
hatred will remain to plague her and
to sap her vitality.
Aye, they are all sick—these fuss
ing, scheming nations! Each one, in
Its delirium, is openly or surrepti
tiously antagonizing the others. The
hatreds engendered by racial sickness
are almost unbelievable. Some of the
diplomats would cut each other’s
throate^-only It would be such bad
form!
Lauder's Prescription.
Of course, this European epidemlo
of sickness cannot go on intermin
ably. There must be an end to It
sometime. And what that end will
be unless the one and only remedy Is
found, is not difficult to Imagine.
Chaos faeces several of the once
powerful nations of Europe. They
are. Indeed, sick unto death! No
mere financial assistance will mate
rially help. The sickness Is too
chronic to insure a return to health
by gold and credit alone.
The only thing that can save Eu
rope is a new renascence of brotherly
love. The only thing that can pre
vent Armageddon Is a new under
standing between the people's of Eu
rope and the transmission of this
understanding to the ruling chancel
leries—whether they are dominated
by kings, presidents or prime min
isters!
The world is sick for charity—not
the charity of the purse, but the
charity that spells L-O-V-E. Even
we of the Anglo-Saxon tongue are
apt to forget what the other fellow
suffered. If we could visualize more
clearly, and with more heart, the
sufferings of France in the great
war—her desolated towns and her
[ decimated population—and would
evidence this in a little more brother
ly love, we would help France to re
gain the highway to health. Inci
dentally that would be a panacea for
some of our own ills.
If the people of France could for
get their bitterness—their sense of
outrage—their smouldering hatred—
and remember that, even in Germany,
there were rrdthers who loved their
boys and who wept in loneliness when
they lost them on the field of battle—
if they could only realize that Ger
many and the German people were
never so sick as when they were at
war—they would create a new feeling
between the nations—a feeling of
charity that woirid go far toward
curing their own malady and have
its reaction across the Rhine.
If Germany, by an infusion of kind
ly sympathy, -could see the shell
furrowed plains of France, the im
poverished, saddened peasants, the
ravaged cities, pity that is akin to
love would dissipate the feeling of
hatred and the desire for revenge
that holds both nations in the thrall
of deadly anticipation.
The same would be true of all the
other “sick men” of Europe. Jeal
ousy and hatred and mortal fear have
gotten under their skins. Envy of
the other fellow has become an ob
session.
Warehouse Holds Relics,
From the New Orleans Picayune.
There Is an army warehouse at New
ark Bay, N. J., covering 130 acres, which
la full ef war relics. In this great build
ing are 2,197 pieces of artillery, 4,000 ve
hicles, 70,000 rifles, 10,000 machine guns
and other equipment total 841,117 pieces
ranging from 60 centimeter guns to 249,
708 helmet ornaments. The Germans who
had dealings with the American forces
seem to have had much trouble with their
hats. As one doughboy remarked in an
Interview tfpon his return to the United
States: "Whenever we wanted hel
mets we sent ft lot of fellows out with
rakes." However, he did not speak of
them usually as helmeth. preferring to
fcall them "German bone bowl,” a term
that was almost official in many Amer
lean units.
The question Just now is how much
longer Is the government going to keep
all these war souvenirs housed at New
ark Bay? It seem * to be generally agreed
that they should be distributed through
out the states and territories, and leg
islation providing for such a distribution
has been before congress for some time.
Under a plan of distribution favored by
the American Legion and the war de
partment, each city and town would re
ceive an allotment of trophies in propor
tion to the number of *nen they had in
all branches of service. That seems to
be about as fair an arrangement as
could be found, and the fact that it is
the system approved by the legion should
be sufficient recommendation. The
souvenirs were bagged by the veterans
themselves, and they really are their
property. Suggestions that this equip
ment be sold are next to ridiculous,
even disregarding the rights of the sol
diers. It would only bring junk prices.
There are enough of these war trophies
to supply every city and town with
something and they will be much more
valuable on display In local communi
ties than kept in a government ware
house.

No Place for an Actor.
From the Passing Ahow, London.
"Hello, my dear fellow! I thought you

"It seemed so, laddie, but I happened
to read in an encyclopedia that ostriches

Old Stuff and Bunk at That.
From Capper’s Weekly.
The president of the Chicago Board of
Trade says prohibition has lowered the
price of grain, the inference being that
the bear gamblers haven’t.
That Is what the brewers and distillers
began telling us about prohibition 30
years ago, while first one state and then
another went "dry.” Notwithstanding,
grain prices on the whole continued to
advance further than they receded in the
quarter century preceding the war. Sines
that time the world has never seen such
extreme need for breadstuffs and hasn’t
enough to eat today.
The California grape growers supposed
of course that national prohibition
would render their vineyards useless. In
stead the demand for unfermented
grapejulce, and the wider use of raisins
as a food, requires them to grow five or
six times as many grapes as formerly
were turned Into wine. In the same way
the use of corn and malt grains has
multiplied. Malted milk has an enormous
sale.
John Barlycom as a grain buyer never
has been missed. The loss of his trade
by farmers was almost Immediately
compensated for by an improved Amer
ican standard of living, coincident and
consequent upon the lessening of the
drink evil. The president of the Chicago
Board of Trade is talking bunc.

Lord Curzon, the British foreign

station out of order nnd cheerfully

master that he might use the freight
elevator. Just as the elevator boy

If you are a coffee drinker and fail to get sound restful sleep,
it means that your nerves are over-stimulated and that health
needs protection from coffee’s drug, caffeine.
There’s no sacrifice in making health safe, as so many thousands
have found who have turned from coffee to Postum. It has a
delightful coffee-like flavor, and is free from any element that
can harm you. As many cups as you like, and no regrets.
