OUR CRIPPLED SOLDIERS

AS incoming ships discharge its increas-
ing numbers their cargoes of wounded
men we are made to realize more wildly
how grievously the nations of Europe
have suffered in more than four years
of war. The sight of young fellows in uni
form who have been crippled or life, who
have lost arms or legs, cannot fail to ar
0use sympathy wherever they 60. They
will not lack for the best medical care
and kindly attention. The government
will look after their present needs and
keep watch over them in hospitals until
they reach the maximum of recovery. So
far as these thousands. of soldiers can be
lsstored to sound condition it will be done
But the day must soon come when most
Of these men will return to their homes
and seek opportunities to earn their liv-
ing, as in the days before the war; Very

special sense they will be entitled not

to places where they can command wag-
es and salaries like their old associates.
Fhe barest recognition of what they have

CLASSES

The Bolshevik want class government
and they want themselves to be the class
that governs. For ages, the aristocracy
ruled, and now they want the proletariat
to rule. They are not making much pro-
gress, except that capital, aristocracy,
business and enterprise have retired from
the conflict, leaving the Bolsheviki fight
ing among themselves And what mess
they are making Of it! Riot, bloodshed.
hunger everywhere. A headline in
newspaper says: "Workmen stalve with
Bolshevism. They complain bitterly that
though everything belongs to them, they
are unable to get living"
There is whole volume in that head
line. There is no satisfaction in simply
having. Materialism is only the gospel
OF envy and disqriet. There is no virtue
in property; that is only in the way it is
used, and when it is used selfishly when
administered by class So all class own
ership defeats the common good. And
that may be said Of all class legislation
for which there Is GREAT clanor in behalf
OF certain interests 1t is all unnatural
and unjust, and is in direct conflict with
the public welfare. 1t is almost atruism
to say that favoring a class is opposing
the public good.
And no class can afford to do that. See
how it works with the Bolsheviki, who
own all the property and yet their men,
bers are starving. 1t tales more than
property to supply a man with bread
and meat. 1t requires spirit, good will,
and self respect. Without these man
will starve with loads of wealth, as the
BolsheviG ere doing. 1t used to be that
aristocracy constituted class, but in
these days q class wants to make IAN ar
istocracy Of itself.
One can see it on all siSes where
class sets itself up as the first King for
the governments to consider. 1t is undan-
ocratic and mchristiAn that n should be
