PRIESTS SERVING
IN FRENCH ARMY
(By Associated Press.)

BOULOGNE, France, June ia
tribute to the soldier-priests of France
is paid in pamphlet just issued by
the Countess de Courson.
The number of priests in the French
army exceeds 10000 drawn from
many different orders, Carthusians,
Jesuits, Dominicans, Salesians, Nor--
bertines, and Benedictines. Men who
hold high office in the Church are fire.
quently privates in the army, and often
their interiors in the priesthood are
their superiors under military discip-
line. The younger men serve in the
first line, the older men are employed
as stretcher-bearers and hospital ord
erlies. The actual military chaplains
are always men over 4S years old, and
their work is entirely ecclesiastical.
The moral influence of the soldier
priests at the front among the men is
immense and Madame de Courson
tells many anecdotes of their courage,
good-humor, and splendid fighting
spirit. There are descriptions of mass
being celebrated by these soldier
priests under the most difficult cir
cumstances.

THE VITAL PROBLEM OF
AGRICULTURE
BY Peter Radford.

There is no escaping the market
problem and the highest development
of agriculture will not be attained
until it is solved, for a market
lis as necessary for the producer
as land on which to grow his crop.
Governmental and educational insti-
tutions have spent $180,000,0O0 in the
United States during the past ten
years for improving soil production
and improving seeds and plants, but
very little attention and less money
has been given to the marketing side
of agriculture.
The problem is a monumental one
and one which will never be solved
until it gets within the grasp OF
gigantic organization where master
minds can concentrate the combined
experience and wisdom of the age
upon it. 1t is problem which the
farmers, merchants, bankers, editors
and statesmen must unite in solving.
The Farmers Union stands for all
there is in farming from the most
scientific methods Of seed selection to
the most systematic and profitable
plans of marketing, but does not be-
lieve in promoting one to the neglect
of the other. We consider the work
of farm demonstrators valuable and
we ask that governmental and COM
mercial agencies seeking to help US,
continue to give us their assistance
and advice, but we believe that their
Influence should be extended to the
marketing side of our farm problems
also.
We cannot hope to develop manu-
featuring by over-production of the
factory; we cannot build up mercan-
tile enterprises by the merchants load
ing their shelves with surplus goods
and no more can we develop agricul.
ture by Cutting the market with a
surplus of products.

DARIUS

The neigh of a horse made Darius
King of Persia, the six contending
powers for the throne agreeing among
themselves that the one whose horse
should neigh first should possess the
kingdom. This ancient method OF
settling disputes among politicians
could be revived with profit today
If our partisan factions and petty pol
tticians could only settle their dis
putes by the neigh of a horse, the
bark of dog or the bray Of a donkey,
II would be a great blessing and would
give our citizens better opportunity
to pursue the vocations Of industry
free from political strife.
Let those who pick political plums
by raising rows and who fash swords
dripping in the blood of industry un-
derstand that they cannot turn the
public forum into political arena and
by a clash of personal aspirations
stlll the hammer and stop the plow
and that their quarrels must be settled
in the back alleys of civilization.

NAVAL EXPERT
DIRECTS SHIPS
GREAT BRITAIN
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, June 11.-No department
of state has such an elastic organiza-
tion as the British Admiralty, which
did not even feel the recent cabinet
change. For this result it can thank
Winston Churchill, since il was he
who introduced the Naval War Staff
feature, which stands behind the
First Sea Lord The staff is the Ad-
miralty's thinking machine, and pro-
vides ideas and information for who
ever may be in charge at the time. 1t
was created three years ago.
No executive power is allowed the
war staff, which is purely advisory.
Hhe subjects dealt with naval
operations, intelligence and mobiliza-
tion The head of the staff, obviously,
should be student of naval warfare
and an authority on questions of
strategy. He is empowered to sit with
the First Lord of the Admiralty and
the First Sea Lord at the meetings of
of the Imperial Defense Committee.
When first organized, Churchill fore
saw it would suffer from a lack of
officers trained for staff duties. This
lack was supplied by giving the most
brilliant of the young officers a spec
ial course of training at the Naval War
College. Admiral Sir Henry Jackson.
who, as president of the college, put
the scheme into operation, was later
called to the post of chief of the War
Staff. Although his place was later
taken by Admiral Sir Doveton Sturdee,
he remains at the Admiralty on spec.
ial service.

FREE PORTS
. BUILDERS Of
!. COMMERCE
CONGRESS SHOULD GIVE THEM
PREFERENCE IN APPRO-
PRIATIoNS.
BY Peter Radford.

This nation is now entering upon
an era of marine development. The
wreckage of European commerce has
drifted to our shores and the world
war is making unprecedented de-
mands for the products of farm and
factory. In transportation facilities
on land we lead the world but our port
facilities are inadequate, and our flag
is seldom seen in foreign ports. If
our government would only divert the
energy we have displayed in conquer.
ing the railroads to mastering the
commerce of the sea, a foreign bot
tom would be unknown on the oceans
highways.
This article will be confined to a
discussion of our ports for the pro-
ducts of the farm must pass over our
wharfs before reaching the water. We
have in this nation 81 ports, of which
Al are on the Atlantic and 10 are on
the Pacific Coast. The Sixty-second
Congress appropriated over $51 ,0O0,-
900 for improving our Rivers and
IHarbors and private enterprise levies
"a toll of approximately $50,000,000
annually in wharfage and charges for
which no tangible service is rendered.
The latter item should be lifted OF
the backs of the farmer of this ma
tion and this can be done by Congress
directing its appropriations to ports
that are free where vessels can tie up
to wharf and discharge her cargo
free of any fee or charge.
A free port is progress. 1t takes
out the unnecessary link in the chain
of transactions in commerce which
has for centuries laid a heavy hand
upon commerce. No movement is so
heavily laden with results or will
more widely and equally distribute
its benefits as that of a free port
and none can be more easily and ef-
fectively secured.
