ress - or, If he is older, he has
broken his lifework in a fashion
most difficult to restore. This he
has done for the country of us all.
How can we help these men to come
into their own again?
The plan which Mr.. Lane proposes
is to offer every soldier a chance to
gain farm of his own for the
working of it. The national land,
which was used to reward the vet
Grams of the Civil War, is practical
ly exhausted. But other free land
can be obtained in abundance-by
irrigation, by drainage, by develop
ing cut-over lands, by arrangement
with the states for the cultivation
of abandoned farm land. There is
no question of the land, there is no
question of the urgent need of
stimulating farm life. AS Mr.. Lane
says, the passion for the city is
upon u.s." For our own economic
salvation we must encourage the
new farm idea, of a farm village as
center, Offering the best Of schools,
churches and amusements.
l, Our farm plan. for our soldiers
must be most liberal. Canada is Of

acres and S2,500 with which to inn

do less. The total appropriation of
$500, 100000 suggested by Mr.. Lane
seems small indeed in proportion
to the vast service rendered by these
men. The details remain to be
worked out. The essential plan will
receive the instant approval of every
loyal American.

McAdoo'S Railwdy Medicine

LFrom the New York Sunl
Director General McAdoo makes a
lame argument for eXtending-right
now-the governments operation of
the railroads to cover five years from
next January. 1t is true enough, as
he says, that the government has not
had O chance yet to show whether 1t
can make a reasonable success out of
its experiment, which thus far has
been an undoubted failure. 1t may
be that even in the next two years
there would not be time to prove the
merits of government operation one
way or the other. 1t is beyond ques-
ton that the present statues govern
ing the Director Generals powers
are faulty. And it is as clear as sun
shine that the government has so
tangled up the whole railroad situa-
ton, has so completely transformed
the normal business of the carriers
and has so utterly demora1ized the
individual units that to turn the
roads back abruptly to their owners
would cause nothing less than a ma
tional disaster.
But, while all those truths stand
out big and startling before the eyes
of everybody, 1t does not follow that
single conclusion Of the Director
General is either logical or lucid.

McAdoo'S Change of Base
(From Philadelphia Inquirer(

(From Philadelphia Inquirer(
Director McAdoo has taken the
Nation off it's feet by his proposal
to keep the railways under national
management for five years. Coming
so soon after the Presidents an
nouncement that he had no con
fident judgment of his own" it is dis
concerting to read that he wholly
approves the McAdoo plan.
Mr.. McAdoo lays down three pos
sible plans of conduct which are
not quite the three which the Presi-
dent mentioned. Each supposed that
he had closed the entire subject
with respect to alternatives, and
both were wrong. 1t is not at all
necessary to follow any of the three
or six plans, because others are
available.
1t is entirely possible for the rail-
ways to be turned back to the own
ers within the statutory period with
proper compensation and rehabillta-
ton and with legislation which VIII
permit the completion of plans long.
desired by the managers, but ever
opposed by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. The government easily
can provide for the national incor-
poration of all railways, for their
assimilation into groups and for H.
nancing them by public funds on a
basis that will be just to all. 1t can
also provide a regulating body OF
experts with worldly wisdom.
All this might easily take UT. the
statutory time as at present allow
ed, or it might take less. In any
event, we ought to settle the matter
in honesty and fairness. 1t is with
great regret that we are obliged to
say with all his success as Secretary
of the Treasury, Mr.. McAdoo has
failed as Railway Director. When
he says that his plan will eliminate
the subject from politics he is mis-
taken. He is simply making the
greatest political issue of modern
times. 1t is apparent that he wants
to postpone the subject until after
the election in 1920. 1t is to be hoped
that he has no personal interest in
making such suggestion.
At the earliest possible moment
that constructive legislation can be
secured the railways should be re-
turned,

SATURDAY EVENING, DEC. IA
GERMANY'S FUTURE

WHETHER or not the people of
M Germany are repentant of
w their past transgTessions is
doubtful question that only the
future will answer, but this much
seems certain-that they will come
out Of the present chaotic state of
affairs with more or less conser-
vative republican form of govern
ment as the choice of a vast ma
jority of the people. We are hearing
very much just now of Bolshevilk-
ism in Germany, but the recent cleo
tions in several states show the old
established Socialist party to be even
more overwhelmingly in favor there
than the Republican party is in
Pennsylvania. The Spartacus group
(which corresponds to the Bolshe-
Wiki of Russia-is making a lot of
racket, but the Socialists are getting
the votes. The Liebknechts, who
seek for their own hands the pow
ers so recently wrested from the
Kaiser, are steadily declining in
favor. If Germany puts down the
Bolsheviki idea and adopts a stable
form of republican government, it
will be greatly to her own advan-
tage and to that of the world at
large.
Meanwhile, Germany must be
made to feel the sting of the lash
she used so long over the barred and
bleeding shoulders of helpless ma
tions. She must pay for their blood
in the toll of her hands and the
sweat of her brow. She may work
out her own internal troubles salts
factorily-and 1T is to be hoped will
do so and very soon--but the world
is not interested beyond that. Ger
many in sackcloth and ashes,
acknowledging her sins and sim
cerely sorry is a picture none of the
correspondents has as yet sent US,
but that is q state of mind Germany
must reach before becoming a can
didate for membership in the con-
gress of nations.

Pennsylpantd's Great ReDenue

(Prom the Philadelphia Inquirer)
During the fiscal year just ended
Pennsylvania had an income of $44.-
900, 900, an increase of about ten per
cent. over the previous year. There
are living men who can remember
when the total income of the United
States government was not so large
at this sum. No details are offered
of the total expenditures, but 1t is
known that there is a comfortable
surplus in the treasury The COM
monwealth expended much less than
anticipated for war work
Every item in license taxes shows
an increase with the exception of
that for sale of liquors, which shows
slight decrease, The state received
little more than a million and q
half from this source. which next
year may be nil. The tax on inherit
tances shows q large gain, amount
ing to nearly six millions, of which
more than one-half was from coll
lateral bequests. As the Federal
Government proposes a great in
crease in all kinds of inheritance
taxes 1t can be seen that this will
be heavy burden on some persons.
While the tax is popular it has the
disadvantage of being n tax on
capital and not on income,, and to
that extent reduces taxing power.
For purposes OF comparison 1t
may be stated that the revenue of
the state in 1910 was less than $780,
100000. The coming Legislature
will not only have large revenues to
dispose of, but is now authorized to
float $5O,0OO,000 for good roads.
This will relieve the annual budget
for good roads to some extent and
promises rapid construction fh#r
On the whole the financial posi-
ton of Pennsylvania is better than
that of any other state in the Union.

MUST BE PROTECTED

saloonkeepers-not all, but great
majority-had not tied up their
trade with the disreputable elements
of the community; If they had
not violated every 'decency and
half the laws in their chase
for the dollar, it is very doubt
full If prohibition sentiment would
be so overwhelmingly strong as 1T
now is. The saloonmen have sown
the whirlwind and their harvest time
is fast approaching.
If "bootlegging" is not stopped
here, the government promises dras-
tic steps. All the hotelmen would
suffer in that event for the crimes
of the lawbreakers. So long as the
liquor business is galized-wrong
though it be-so long it should re-
ceive the protection of the law,' but
in the present instance the inno-
cent may have, to suffer with the
guilty, which seems scarcely fair.
At all costs, soldiers in Harrisburg
must be protected from the tempta-
ton of drink, even though it be
necessary to close every liquor selling
place in the city.

The Return of the Soldier
IFrom the New York Trlbunel

A our soldiers return, boat by
n boat, wounded or well, maim-
ed or whole, we are all of us
stirred deeply by our sense of obli-
cation, our desire to do something,
anything, everything, for these fight
ing men of our own flesh and blood.
Both this emotion and a most ad-
mirable plan for putting it into ef-
feet are expressed with rare elo-
quence and conviction in Secretary
Lanes annual report. Anything but
a statistical digest is this unusual
document. It is for every American
to real and enjoy. Here, for in
stance, is Mr.. Lanes picture of the
soldiers point of view:
And in their look will be a query,
one though over in the trench at
night and on the long, slow slog,

What is my life to be when 1 get

the future-what then? School?
Oh, can't go back to school. When

A PATRIOTIC SERVICE

THE P. o. s. Of A. has set very
excellent example for the other
- patriotic societies of the country
in deciding to undertake campaign
of education against Bolshevikjsp. in
the United States. =
The P. o. S. of A. is made up of
everyday Americans from every
walk of life-embracing in its mem
bership working men, business men,
professional men and men in public
life; mechanics, teachers, merchants,
physicians, Governors, United States
Senator's; and it is pledged to up
hold the constitution of the United
States. A Bolshevik would stand
about as we'll in P. o. s. of A. lodge
room as the ex-Kaiser would at a
French peace celebration. The or
ganiZation has undertaken to make
the Bolshevik as unpopular in Amer
lea as Wilhelm is in France, and has
wisely decided to accomplish it's pur-
pose by education-which is a far
better word these days than propa-
ganda.
The honest man who knows what
Bolshevikism really means abhors
the doctrine, which is worse than
czardom or kaiserism. Education is
all that is necessary. Once the peo-
pie know the Bolsheviki for what
they really are the word will die a
natural death in the United States,
1t will be so little used.

Haze Ceased to Function
[From the wilkes-Barre Record

[From the Wilkes-Barre Record
Any fair-minded person will make
allowance for the fact that in pre-
pairing for and conducting a war or
the proportions that we have expert
enced, mistakes are inevitable. For
the most part President Wilson re-
tanned at the head of departments
men who had been chosen for peace
full duties, unacquainted with many
of the tremendous new problems that
came to the fore.
Under the best of conditions mis-
takes would have been unavoidable
but there have been some mistakes
for which it is impossible to rake up
an intelligent excuse. They do not
pertain so much to the conduct OF
the war as to the accommodations
that mean so much to those who are
in the war and to the anxious peo-
pie they left behind.
There seems to be no rational. ex-
cuse whatever for the delay in send
ing out pay checks to tens OF thou
sands of dependents of soldiers and
sailors for whom the government
promised that provision would be
made. Some of the newspapers print
heatrending stories of suffering
where wives, children and aged par
ents have looked day after day In
vain for the remittances that never
come. 1t is a. hard thing for these
people, who never have been sub
jects of charity, to be compelled
to appeal to charity for the aid that
is their due from the government An
appropriation was made to supple
ment the amounts to be deducted
from the pay of the men, but it is
held up somewhere, and the only
explanation given is that the work Is
SO far behind that it cannot be reach
ed. Yet we read of thousands of
clerks in the department officers do
ing less than half the work they
would be compelled to do in private
employment. There has been a la
mentable lack of efficient manage
ment somewhere.
