SPEAKING OF PENSIONS

It is difficult to understand the opposition which has arisen in many states to the movement for penslonmg school teachers unless indeed be averse to pensions for any class of citizens.
 Surely teacher who adequately serves the puohc durng the period of mental and bodily vgor contributes as much to the public welfare soldier even where the latter gives his entire life to the military servce or ms country In neither does the compensation pald bear much relation to the value of the service given AS rule neither the soldier nor the teacher may expect to acquire
 competency at his trade and yet the public accepts lifetime of sacrificing labor from the teacher and then
 turns him adrt unprovided for when his vigor has been exhausted in its service On the other hand we have bee and are prOdga the point of reckessness in penslog our soldiers if our policy be guaged and measured by our
 treatment of other servants of the public or by the stand ards of other civilized countries And while no fairmlnd ed person could object adequate pension for any sol der who has been disabled in the service of his country or soldier who has spent his lifetime in his countrys mill tary establishment it mistake fraught with much ev to single particular class of public servants as the pet objects of the governments bounty independently oi the merit of their claims upon it, and particularly where ether public servants of at least equal merit refused any consideration at all
 Let us continue to pension military men Who de serve it. but let us no longer deserve the stigma of ngr tue by negectng those soldiers who lead the vanguard of civilization the teachers of our common schools

Suffer Wrong

Declaring that wrong and in
Justice had been done TO thous-
ands of home-seekers and home
builders in New Mexico by the
action of the joint conference
committee on the food control
bill in striking out Of the bill the
so-called Fall amendment, Con-
gressman w. B. Walton voiced
his protest against that action in
a brief but vigorous speech on
the floor of the House, but de-
clined to carry his fight for the
amendment to the point where it
would further delay in action on
the food bill.
Mr.. Walton took the high
ground that New Mexico could
better afford TO suffer injustice
for a little while longer than to
run the risk of delaying action
on measure urgently demanded
for the relief of more than a
hundred million American citi-
zens.
While the Fall amendment was
defeated, it is felt by those con-
versant with the situation that
a great deal of good has been
done by the agitation in favor of
it, and that a much more liberal
policy will be followed by the in
terror department IN future as a
result of that agitation. Atten-
ton has been called sharply to
the conditions existing in New
Mexico as a result of the failure
to classify lands subject to entry
under the 640-acre homestead
law, and it is believed that with
in a comparatively short time all
these lands will be designated

A Heinous Crime

A recent outbreak of diph

which eleven children were
taken sick, was due to infected
candy given away by a tall
stranger about. ten days ago.
The man appeared to be Of
German descent. No one SEEM

ing around several days he left
the city.
The sick children declare that
this man gave the candy to them
in packages. The candy was
eaten ten days before the chill
dren look sick. DR.. Crocker, on
the outbreak of the desease,
made an attempt to check its
srread. Three of the children
died.
Parents are warned not to al
low their children to accept gifts
from strangers.

F crest Wood to
Help Relieve
Coal Shortage

Forest supervisors throughout
the southwest are making a
study of the fuel situation with
a view to helping relieve the
threatened coal shortage by en-
couraging the use of dead wood
from the national forests. Ac-
cording to plans made public by
the District Forester, each SUPER
visor will determine in what
territory the substitution of
wood for coal will be practicable.
In that territory figures on com
parative costs will be made
available to the public and all
possible facilities provided for
the cutting and utilization of To-
cal fuel-wood supply. House
holders will be especially urged
to lay in their winter supply in
advance. Information on fuel
wood can be obtained from the
local Forest Supervisor.
Forest officers point out that
every additional cord of dead
wood utilized saves half a ton of
coal and incidently improves the
forest. The records of the For.
est Service show that about 100,-
600 cords of fuel-wood are cut
annually from the national for
ests of ihe southwest. Most of
this is obtained free by settlers,
and the remainder sold to wood
dealers at from 25 to so cents
per core rhe supply of dead
wood alone is said to be sufficient
to supply = much larger con-
sumption.
