This war has developed the need for
educated officers. educated soldiers,
educated chemists and educated me-
chine workers. 1t has indicated the
way to preparedness is thru education.
The federal government is preparing
a great army of young men for service
in the colleges and universities of the
country. This preparedness means not
. only the winning of the war but the
saving of the country after the war.
This preparedness must be continued.
There is no Limitation upon congress;
it can make continuing appropriations
for the aid of this kind of prepared
ness and Kansas must take off her old
time restriction which prohibits the
making of continuing appropriations
She can do this by adopting the con-
-stitutional amendment, permitting the
legislature to make continuing APP
preparation for the schools. The
amendment will be on your ballot to.

WHEAT AFTER PEACE
VIII Kansas Farmers Appreciate
Price Fixing Then?

E. E. Murphy. chairman of the
Democratic state committee, is of the
opinion that farmers who have been
dissatisfied with the price fixed for
wheat and with the failure of the ad-
ministration to fix a cotton price. will
change their way of thinking il peace
comes in the Immediate future and
that if there is any real kick next
year it will come from the southern
cotton farmers because no cotton
price was fixed.
1.-THE Kansas farmers are guaran-
teed good price for their wheat of
next years crop regardless of the
war;" Murphy said today, while the
cotton farmers will have to stand
enormous reductions of revenue If
peace brings slump in the cotton
market. 1t Is generally admitted that
the end of the war will mean a big
drop in the price of wheat as large
supplies that have been accum alating
in South America and Australia be-
cause of the scarcity of ships, will be
available and will be put on the
worlds market Just as soon as posi-
BILE. However, this will not disturb
the sleep of the Kansas wheat raiser,
thanks to the Dem ocFatic administra-
ton that has insured the price of next
years crop, regardless of conditions"

It would be interesting to know
what is holding up the armistice terms
that are to be submitted to Germany.
If the delay be for the purpose of per-
hitting the soldiers of the allied
armies to kill more Huns: or If it be
for the purpose of allowing our
armies to cross the German border, it
will meet the approval of the American
people. Anything that will prevent a
march into German territory will be a
source of disappointment in this coun-
try and probably to the men in the
field. Ali Of the kaiser former allies
