Omaha, Aug. ITO the Editor Of The
Bee. / would like to take the liberty Of
making a suggestion to the committee that
has charge of the proposed BILLY" Sunday
meetings of August 20.
have already heard people say they In
tend to 90 in the early morning and stay all
day. That kind of hoggishness on the part
Of so-called pious people kept many thou
sands of people from hearing BILLY" Sun
day last fall. especially on Sundays when
workingmen had the best chance to 60 and
hear him.
think 1t would be good plan for the
committee in charge to prepare tickets Of
different color for each meeting and to dis
tribute them in such a way that the people
who want to be hoggish would be shut out
from more than one meeting.
For myself ! am willing to pledge that l
will not go to more than one Of the three
meetings. for believe in giving all chance
who may want to hear one Of the most
wonderful men of this age. 1t is more than
probable that the Auditorium can be filed
the three times with an entirely different
audience each time and for that reason those
who are inclined to be hoggish ought to be
shut out from more than one meeting II
some plan can be devised to shut them out.
When BILLY" Sunday was here last fall, at
some Of the meetings the people present
were asked to pledge that they would 60 out
and let others take their places, but hun.
dreds of them failed to keep the promise
and hundreds more went out and then came
back in again. No difference what persons
views may be on the prohibition issue, It is
worth a great deal to anybody to hear
BILLY" Sunday. Let us all try to be fair
and give everybody>a chance to hear BILLY"
Sunday who wants to, for It will be Of bene-
fit to all of us. F. A. AGNEW.

Use for the Veteran Workman.

In the current number of the Railway Review
Is an interesting article by Pennsylvania shop
superintendent on what to do with the veteran
employee, the man who Is no longer active but is
stiff capable Of some service. This man suggests
variety Of employment in which the old employee
may be we'll engaged. but his chief argument rests
on the fact that his accumulated experience and
consequent wisdom Is worth much, and sometimes
offsets his loss Of agility Throughout the article
Is suggestion Of comfort for the men on whom
time has placed ito mark The writer argues that
SO long as the workman is actuated by desire to
do something, he should be given something to do,
and not retired or dumped" into place where he
has little or nothing to occupy his time The prin-
eipal plea Is for the extension Of reclamation ac-
tivity to men as well as to material and Is sup
ported by numerous citations from shops Of differ
ent railroads. to show that the old men still pos
sess much Of ability that can be well utilized for
profitable service. As an answer to the "Osleriza-
ton" theory, the article Is quite effective Great
concerns will yet find that retirement, even on
liberal pension allowances, is not the very best
way Of disposng Of operatives whose hair Is get

Land Banks Under State Law.

Without political bandwagon accompaniment
or pledges OF state treasury support, New York
has launched land bank on broader and simpler
lines than the federal rural credit law proposes.
1t is broader inasmuch support 10 not restricted
to single class, both farmers and city people be-
ing alike eligible to land bank credit II is simpler
because 1t is more free from political red tape
and utilizes existing institutions as the medium
Of direct action
The law creating the land bank was passed
by the Legislature at the urgent request of man
ayers Of savings and loan associations. Appreciat-
ing the benefits these institutions confer on the
communities where they exist, the managers
sought to extend their usefulness to farm land
owners Lack Of capital prevented the desired
expansion, and the state undertakes to bridge the
chasm by authorizing the establishment Of the
land bank recently opened for business.
The fundamental feature Of the land bank is
cooperative self help 1t 10 designed to help those
who help themselves. The bank does not lend
directly to the borrower. Its credit is extended
through neighborhood associations, which may
be organized anywhere by fifteen or more men,
bers. The credit scheme contemplates triple re-
sponsibity for the security25 per cent of the pur
chase price Of the property by the buyer, an equal
amount out Of the associations funds, and the
remaining 50 per cent advanced by the land bank
In this way the bank unites the enterprise Of the
borrower, neighborhood encouragement in prac-
tical form and statewide support
Public confidence in the venture is shown in
the ready sale Of land bank bonds on equal terms
with the municipal securities Of New York City.

Swimming Pool Contamination.

Omaha. Aug. Ito the Editor Of The
Bee: ! drove down to Sand Point on two
occasions recently and I noticed that In a
bayou connecting with the swimming portion
of Carter lake and within 200 feet thereof,
are two rest places, both Of which empty
into stagnant water, and so close to the place
where the bathers use the lake that it would
seem to me impossible for it not to contain
mate the swimming place.
understand this Is in Iowa and not sub
ject to municipal control, and is run as q
private enterprise. do not want to hurt any
ones business, but do think that II this
condition prevails much sickness 10 liable
to result therefrom. I do not want to be
known in making the complaint, but would
suggest, in view Of the articles that have
appeared In your paper concerning the many
efficient bathing places established by Mr..
Hummel that you might be able to do the
public service by referring to such condi-
lions generally. This might cause the evils
spoken Of to be abated.
Otherwise than the rest places spoken of
this Is splendid point for bathing and is,
judging from what saw on the two occa-
sions I was there. patronized by good
class Of people Of all ages.

Last January I attempted to help the
Drummond Motor company Of Omaha to

after long time was told that they have
an iron clad rule that they will not endorse
or assist any new manufacturing enterprise
in raising capital. In this case had a sub.
stantial man make two trips here from ST.
Louis endeavoring to set 100000 in the

When Sporting Blood Pulsasss.

Among the Many offenses charged up to the
automobile in Iowa, none strikes deeper note Of
melancholy than the havoc II has wrought In
native judgment of horseaesh. Late estimates
show one automobile for every thirteen persons

Automobile association for 1915 puts Iowa at the
top of the list Of states in percentage of automo
biles to population. But its premier position as

Spring Shooting.

Audubon societies and other similar organiza-
tons are quite perturbed just now over the like
lihood that Secretary of Agriculture Houston will
make an executive order extending the "open
time" on migratory birds, 80 that spring shoot
Ing will be In large measure restored. The
order, IL made. will effectually defeat the purpose
Of the law, which was to protect the so-callcd
game birds, particularly the water fowl, from
threatened extinction. Spring shooting has been
the most potent Of agencies for destruction for
Il has not been alone the individual birds slaugh-
tered at this season, but the potential offspring
Of the fowl that fell to the spring hunter. It's
out of the question for birds to mate and raise
broods after they have been shot on their way
to the breeding grounds. The spring hunter
knows this as we'll as anyone.
That the water fowl in the great central valley
Of the United States was fast going the way Of
the passenger pigeon and the buffalo was apparent
TO ALL when the federal law to stop spring shoot
ing was passed. 1t has not been in force long
enough to make any material difference in the
number Of birds, but It surely will II allowed to
remain. However, from the very beginning it
has met with opposition of so-called sportsmen,
who have tested It in courts and In other ways
have tried to secure its modification The last
resort Is to the secretary Of agriculture for an
order that will take down the bars @
The Audubons hope that Secretary Houston
will find II expedent to not interfere with the law
the enforcement Of which means so much to the
perpetuation Of the migratory birds Of North
America. n

Who Kent u. Out Of War.

Omaha, Aug. 12.--To the Editor Of The
Bee: Anyone can hear that Wilson kept
US out of war" daily on the streets and our
democratic newspapers lay great stress on
1t, lest 1t be forgotten as a campaign
propaganda for catching votes. But the
cry that Wilson kept US out of war is shown
up in all its hollow pretense by the proceed
ings in congress and by the letter of Senator
Lane after his interview with the president.
1t was the good sense Of the American people
In the west that kept US out Of war, and the
timely concessions of Germany on the u
boat controversy.
But under the Wilson administration we
have surrendered the Pacific to Japan, we
have embittered Mexico and contributed the
chaos there by our vacillating policies, and
we shall find ourselves at the end Of the
European war despised and hated, not alone
by Germany. our second best customer, and
Austria Hungary. but by Great Britain,
France and Russia as well.
And where Is the SO much heralded Will
