Second Battle of the Marne

This newspaper occasionally finds mo-
ments of embarrassment in the fact that it
is written not only by and for but also about
the American army, so that when, in its ex-
citement, it gives vent to a cheer for the
Yankee soldier, it might seem to present the
unedifying spectacle of the A. E. F. ap-
plauding itself.
But just now great part of the A. E. F.
Is cheering from the bottom of its heart for
another great part. To all the American
soldiers whom fate touched on the shoulder
and summoned into the second battle of the
Marne, every other American in France takes
off his hat today.
They were called into battle as fraught
as Gettysburg in its consequence to the
world for veal or woe, called in numbers
greater far than ever the field of Gettysburg
beheld. And through that last fortnight Of
July, 1915 between the Marne and the
Ourcq, they fought with such splendid dash
and such high, exalted courage that today
every other American in France salutes
them reverently..
In that battle, they have so borne them.

Nebraska's Great State Fair.

The state fair, which is again under headway
as an annual event, has long since passed the
apnnkin show and hoss trot" stage, and has be-
come truly great exposition of the allied ac-
tiyities Of the agricultural industry This is not
ito be wondered at, since Nebraska has taken
front rank among the producing states of the
union. Its intelligent, progressive farmers have
quickly seized on new and improved methods of
tilling the soil, breeding live stock, and doing
the other things that have brought them bounte-
Gus prosperity
BY diligent application Of knowledge gained
At these fairs, which really have become COM
petitive exhibitions Of methods and products,
they have added to the productivity Of the soil
increased their annual output and so given aid
to society If the economic axiom is dependable
that mans advance is in direct ratio 70 the sur
plus of food he is able to produce, then the farm
crs OF Nebraska deserve to be listed among the
greater benefactors of humanity, for they have
contributed annually for many years enormously
to the surplus of food, and thus have assisted In
!. the creation of wealth through other agencies
making possible research invention and dis
covery.
Because the state fair has had its undeniabls
part in the success Of the Nebraska farmer, i
should be included in the category Of institu
tions beneficial and indispensable.

Americas New Merchant Marine.

Spectacular performances by the armed forces
of the United States have so monopolized atten-
tion the public has almost forgotten the existence
of our merchant marine. Maybe it would be
better to say creation for the great enterprise is
still in the constructive mood, as we have been
reminded on several occasions, when the Splash
ing of ships entering the water has called for
more or less of exuberant utterance. After the
ships have once submitted to old oceans embrace
we have let them go the way of unromantc COM
merce carriers and turned our eyes to watch the
progress OF the boys going over the top. Appar-
emily this indifference has gwen little concern
to the merchant mariners.
For example, the Tuckahoe, which got great
deal OF space on front pages because of being
constructed and ready for cargo in 81 days, has
gone on with its speed, and now makes round
trip week between Newport News and Boston
carrying 5000 tons of coal at load. Six months
formerly was considered good sailing for round
trip between New York and Buenos Aires but
steamships are regularly scheduled to do it in 100
days now, and sailing vessel has achieved the
course in lis days. By carefully worked out
system of control the Shipping Board has short
ened turn arounds" to the extent that two ships
are doing now the work of three year ago
Thus we have increased the available tonnage by
onc-third without adding vessel to the feet.
In other ways advances have been made, Sc
that German calculations based on pre-war per-
formances are OF about as much use as those
resting on the records of the Phoenicians
Americans have done it again, this time in the
matter of transport OF cargo, in way to sur
prise the world. And while the war goes on
plans are being laid to continue this into peace
times

LOYALTY OF LABOR.

Labor day demonstrations this year properly
present patriotic features with an almost total
subordinaton of the labor theme. We are at war
and the big job is TO win the war as fast as pos
sible because the quicker 49, cmash the kaiser
the sooner will we be free to direct ourselves
to the r-the-war problems, of which the read
ustment of labor to peace conditions will be OF
prime importance. 1t is the consensus OF
opinion that the fruits of victory are bound to
inure to the benefit of the wage worker more
than to the employing classic the man who
works for his living with his hands and brain
than the man with accumulated wealth.
1t is matter for self-congratulaton that our
American labor has responded to the nations
needs in such way as to leave no question OF
its loyalty as whole. In no other country
which accords "a measure of freedom to the
worker has this been equally manifest. America
has gone ahead with its war tasks without any
thing like the labor backfre that has embarrassed
Great Britain, for example, and the explanation
lies in the enlightened leadership and the high
standard of intelligence of our American labor,
the two essentials to patriotic spirit
BY doing its full part for the winning of the
war, labor is establishing its claim to more ade-
quate recognition after the return to peace
basis

Is Noise Part Of Patriotism?

Omaha, Aug. 30.-To the Editor of
The Bee: Can't we trust the intelli-
gence Of the people of Omaha to the
extent that it is unnecessary to alarm
everybody with the blowing Of the
siren whistle whenever anything hap
pens?
Take the siren whistle this morn
ing when the aeroplanes were sup
posed to have arrived. 1t woke every
poor sick patient in the hospitals in
Omaha and caused them more or less
excitement, which is bad for them. 1t
disturbed all business unnecessarily
because everybody is going to see all
they want Of those aeroplanes tomor-
row. If they must blow the siren
whistle why don't they use more
sense about it instead Of prolonging
it indefinitely on every occasion?
It Is about time we began an anti
noise campaign. One would think the
town was run by a lot Of irresponsible
kids and it is about time to grow up.

"Short of Help.o


Omaha, Aug. 31.-To the Editor OF
The Bee: The labor situation Of this
country at this present time needs
consideration. The calamity Of "shor,
of help" is becoming an every day ex-
cuse for rendering. improper service
This condition cannot be altogether
termed an excuse. 1t Is and has been
proven to be fact in several cases.
If Sammies in the trenches would
send out an appeal, Were short OF
guns" how readily we would respond
to their request by sending them all
equipment necessary.
We have considered our home con.
dition In the nature of an excuse and
that abroad of an appeal. but is moi
the one of as vital an importance as
the other? Never in the history OF
the United States was this more true
than at this time and with all these
we'll known facts before us we are
asking for shorter hours now when
everyone should do his best and as
much as possible.
When in competitive business we
see our rival put in 10 hours of good,
faithful service, we are alert to one
fact and that is we must get busy OF
get out. This good old nation OF ours
now also has a competitor, headed by
a monarchist who would rule or ruin
the world and who, to accomplish his
purpose, is not at this time adopting
eight-hour laws.
II this nation would adopt a 10
hour law 1t would mean 25 per, cent
more service rendered, and ethat
would put up all the wheat in the
United States, and then when the
kaiser and his staff have been driven
back through Berlin and on through
his entire empire into the Baltic Sea
we can soon reinstate our eight-hour
law. G. B.

Wonders in wartime clutter the records.
Some stand out in a conspicuous class For

Gratis mailing a prohibition plank to their

Railroad builders up in Alaska are not
bothered about an ice shortage. Recently
they put stretch of track over foundation
of solid ice 40 feet thick. That job takes
the cake.
whisky was burned at Owensboro, recently,
and the guilty firebug escaped. Kentucky
justice shows painful signs of wobbling at
the knees.
| A New York patriot, somewhat shy on
musical culture, tried to make a Georgia
man stand up while the restaurant orchestra
played Marching Through Georgia" What
happened to the New Yorker was aplenty.
The invasion of mans former sphere of
activity is no less pronounced than the trans
formation of restaurants heretofore catering
to men in the large cities. Not only are
the older establishments meeting changed
conditions, but new restaurants and lunch
rooms are reaching out for the favor of
working women and girls.
An order promulgated by the Public
Safety commission of Minnesota, promises
lively times for loan slackers in the coming

order "all persons refusing to take their

McAdoo's Timely Hint to Kitchin.

The secretary of the treasury has startled the
ways and means committee of the house by sug-
gesting that 1t take pains not to put too onerous
burdens on business. Chairman Kitchin is in
clined to interpret this advice as retreat from
Mr.. McAdoo's original suggestion OF flat 80 per
cent levy on all war profits. The view of the
chairman of the committee may be correct, but
to an outsider it seems scarcely susceptible of
such Interpretation.
What Mr.. McAdoo has done should have been
done long ago. Business as such has not en-
deavored to escape any of its burdens or obliga-
tions in connection with the war. Politicians in
and out of congress have persistently undertaken
to create the notion that the contrary is true.
Business of every sort has been. subjected to
espionage, and even where no foundation for a
charge of shirking or extortion has been found
hints have been left to arouse suspicion and ere
ate distrust. Profteering has disgraced US, but
that is subject quite aside from the legitimate
purpose of revenue measure. Any penalty that
is to be visited on the greedy should be laid
against them so directly that real business will
not suffer.
A law to produce the enormous sum of $8,0O0,.
100000 can be passed and enforced without vic.
timizing the producers of the country. The
question is whether the committee will finally be
guided by wisdom or prejudice, whether it viii
act with its eyes open or follow the dctum Of it:
chairman and vote with its eyes shut.
