Silver Chevron
Plan Criticized

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-T There
has been some criticism of the war
department regarding the wearing Of
silver chevrons to donate service only
at home, Secretary Baker said today,
but there is 0 disposition on the part
of the war department to rescind it.
"A few years from now," said the
secretary, "the army of the United
States win be composed of two parts,
those who served in this war and
those who did not. The chevrons,
both those denoting service abroad
and the other denoting service at
home, will become increasingly valu-
able"

U. S, Battleships
Are Home Again
Brilliant Record
BY J. w. T. MASON
Written for The United Press.

NEW YORK, Dec. 28.-America's Is
squadron Of dreadnaughts, home from
the war waters of Europe, has per-
formed historic mission that will be
the basic factor in the future sea ac-
tivities Of the league of nations.
The Americans have shown the fea-
sibility of perfect cooperation be-
tween warships flying the Union Jack
and the Stars and Stripes. Without
this spirit of harmonious action by
battle fleets of different nationalities
there can never be accomplished any
real authority by the league of ma
ions upon the high seas. The free
dom of the seas, which the league of
nations expects to create, can be
guaranteed only by stern exercise
Of sea power by cooperating powers.
The brilliant naval commanders
who have operated Americas fighting
ships abroad have demonstrated their
efficiency in no more striking man
ner than by their ability to work for
unity Of purpose with the grand fleet
Of Great Britain. On land, the allies
showed that division Of command was
fatal to success. On sea the British
and American fleets have solved the
problem of cooperation without any
clash Of authority.
This has resulted largely from the
fact that the basic theories of naval
tactics and strategy are the same for
Britain as for America. The late
writings of the late Admiral Mahon
are recognized by Britain as the most
authoritative works of Britain's own
sea operations.
The matter of common language
for British and American naval off
GERS also has played an important
part in the efficient cooperation of
the two fleets. Perfect understand
ing has been possible by personal con-
tact not only among the high officers,
but also among the lower grades. The
American and British navies to a
lnique degree are the homes Of eff
eiency experts and specialists. The
ease Of exchanging ideas through a
common language has tended to make
each squadron the valued commen-
tator of the other. The league o.
nations will be safe at sea while that
pirit endures.

Wants Discharged
Men Paid For Year

w. B. Shafer, Jr,, of Norfolk, Va,
is the originator Of a scheme to put a
bill through congress whereby every
man of the service, regulars, reserves,
etc, shall receive twelve months ex-
ira pay, whether they went abroad
or not. Those staying in the service
will receive it as well as those being
discharged.
He says that the men of the service
have worked in the various camps for
81 per day, while the civilians at their
side received as much as $40 and SIS
per day, the civilian going home at
night and the service men standing
by night and day.

HARD FOR THE sToRK.

One Sunday afternoon when Jones,

When she had. subsided somewhat the

Saline county is going to furnish lu0 men and lo0 teams for gra1olling the Hot Springs highway next Tuesday, and Hot Springs is to furnish not less than zoo men to serve as volunteers and help load the wagons and unload them.
