Food Control and Foreign Buyers.

Another detail Of the complicated arrange
ment of the food control bill pending in congress
has been worked out almost to definite adoption.
1t is intended to regulate the sale OF foodstuffs
to foreigners who come here for their supply.
Under the original draft Of the bill for the licens-
ing Of grain exchanges or similar markets. only
domestic traffic was controlled. This left foreign
buyers free to operate at will and brought with
it danger Of considerable proportion. Buyers
from abroad could come here, borrow our money
and buy our grain without limit in market re-
stricted to home buyers to the disadvantage OF
domestic consumers. The unfairness Of this plan
attracted attention in the senate, where the bill
has been amended to place all buyers under the
same rule. The whole question of food control
is yet under consideration and final action is not
likely for some time. No public problem recently
presented is more complex in its nature, nor did
any cali for more delicate handling that justice
might be done to all and undue hardship for any
be avoided. The popular talk of food dictator
may not be fully realized, but people do look to
congress for some relief from the extortion prac-
tced by food gamblers.

The Cause of Liberty

The war OF democracy against autocracy has
brought about the formation of common broth
erhood that knows neither race, religion nor peo-
plies. 1t is the fight OF right against might. 1t is
a contest in which each individual can think for
himself and choose the side that is right
In resigning as first secretary OF the Greek
legation, S. X. Constantnidi strikingly epitomized
the situation when he said that il is the duty OF
every humane and honest man to align himself on
Tie side of America and the entente allies. Ii u.s.
as he well says "a simple question of humanity
and civilization against German barbarity and
bestiality of type almost beyond belief"
The war against the German government is
not kings war II is not the war of statesmen
1t is not the war of the president Of the United
States. II is the war of civilization against or
ganized and ruthless barbarism.
There has been nothing to conceal so far as
the cause of the United States and the allies is
concerned. Before the war some OF the most
grievous aggresions of Germany against the
United States some OF its greatest atrocities, were
concealed lest the anger Of the nation might burs
all bonds.
Whether in Greece or Spain, South Americ;
or the Oriet all lovers Of fair play all lovers o.
decency, as we'll as democracy and liberty. mus
find their sympathies on the side OF America anC
the allies Since the United States entered thu
war, other neutral nations have been preparing K
follow. Enlightened thinkers everywhere. regard
less Of nationality, are enlisting in the cause O
humanity. The German people themselves, wher
the truth finally reaches them, will strike for lib
erty, and then will come the dawn Of an enduring
world peace.

Heavy Rainfall Not a Calamity.

June always has been month of heavy rain
fall in this region and very likely will be. Phys-
cal reasons are responsible for this, and out Of
the combination springs the wonderful fecundty
OF the zone in which Nebraska is shining sec
ton. Lightning and thunder and the beat of
the rain and the roar Of the wind are awe-inspir-
ing in their unrestrained manifestation Of natures
power and majesty but back Of the storm cloud
is the certainty Of peace and plenty. Few per-
sons realize in any degree what is involved in our
rain storms or what is required for the making
OF crop. Enormous quantities Of water must
be provided the soil if we are to reap the harvest
hoped for For example oats require almost 500
tons of water to the acre, corn demands nearly
800 tons, wheat almost 400 and clover does better
with over 500 tons OF water to the acre, and most
Of this is supplied by the. heavy downpours in
June The torrents that fall on these early sum-
mer nights are beneficial in spite OF the local
damage they do.

Outside Work for Conviets.

Nebraska is cautiously entering on the spread
ing plan of employing convicts on work outside
the prison walls. A few of our state prisoners
were used in road building work last summer, and
few more have been put on farms this year,
while many applications for these men are made
to the authorities by other farmers in search Of
help. Under proper supervision the system is
good, but it must not be adopted merely as a
means through which the prisoner can escape the
punitive element Of his sentence. Reformation is
sought in all cases, but is not always accom-
plished this being condition not measurable in
exact terms. Society still is entitled to protection
from hardened and habitual offenders and youth
full transgressors must be made to realize the
serious aspect Of their situation. Leniency must
be exercised with the greatest care to the end
that il does not defeat ITSELF for justice must yet
season mercy even in Nebraska.

Council Bluffs, June 4.-To the
Editor of The Bee: | would like to
see a statement by both of the repre-
sentatives of this county as to why
they voted against the repeal Of the
blue laws, They were elected as lib
eral republicans" OF course, the state
ment may have been published and 1t
escaped my notice.
There is a very serious side to the
present enforcement of laws which
have a tendency to harass and annoy
people who are absolutely good cit
liens, and by way of illustration will
say that ! was visiting recently a
farmer who is living thirty miles from
this town who has in his employ a
Hired man "a young man about 22
years of age from Pennsylvania. This
party has been given the loan of the
auto on all nice Sundays, so he could
come to the nearest town and take in
a picture show or roll game of ball.
Now, Mr.. Farmer being fearful of a
fine would not loan his auto Qike
many others) two weeks ago, and
Mr. Hired Man had to stay at home,
l learned that this party was in the
employ of this farmer for nearly four
years and is No. l man, and only
recently has had his monthly wages
raised to $40 per month. This party
now notifies his employer that he
would rather go back to his home
state and work for less than stay here
and have no amusements; that he
would stay for the present, but would
not stay permanently. This may be
an isolated case, and again it may be
the cause of more unrest than is sus-
pected. JAMES WALKER.

Meeting the U-Boat Problem.

Optimistic reports from British authorities
encourage the hope that in some way the menace
OF the submarine may have been met. 1t l. ad-
mitted that the presence Of American warshps
in the Channel waters has stimulated activity in
the hunt for the undersea terror, fact that will
be gratifying to our national pride. Methods Of
operation and actual results achieved are not
stated for obvious reasons, but negative proof Of
success is offered in the form OF lessenins list
of victims One day is noted as having passed
without the loss of single British boat, the first
since the unrestricted operation OF submarines
began,
Out OF all the mystery that surrounds the sit
uation stands the fact that the German program
has failed in that it did not isolate the British
Isles, did not force neutral shipping to avoid pre-
scribed sea area and that Engand's supplies have
not been cut off, nor are its people any nearer
to being starved into submission than in Febru-
airy, when all restraint was thrown off and the
campaign OF ruthlessness extended from land to
sea. What new phase OF the war may follow is
the subject OF many conjectures, The course to
be pursued by Russia will have all important bear
ing on the future of the conflict, as also will that
of the United States We may yet be given some
basis for the spreading belief that Germany is
much nearer to collapse than the leaders on either
side admit.
On the other hand the allies are laying plans
for another year of active fighting. Experts all
admit lack OF definite information, but agree that
the sharp weapon" OF the submarine did not
bring the result hoped for by the kaiser and his
counsellors. ss .tt.t,

BraziIs Answer to Germany.

The Brazilian note in reply to the German
protest, against taking over by the South Amer

have provoked smile even in Berlin. 1t is so

man practice that it deserves more attention than

U-boats sinks Brazilian merchantmen. and
straightway Brazil seizes German vessel to re-
place the loss. No process could be more direct,
and Brazil recommends that other nations follow
its example, which provides immediate reparation
for losses sustained as result OF the illegal
campaign against commerce. Interned German
vessels may not belong to the government, but
that is detail to be considered after the fact,
Germany has so far shown scant consideration
for private property rights and is not in good
position to make any claims for immunity for its
own citizens other than what has been granted
neutrals. German merchantmen have been tied
up safe and idle in harbors, while neutral COM
mcrce has been devastated by the submarine, but
now the indignation aroused by this is being
translated into terms Of positive action. I'M
