POSTAGE REDUCTION

The repeal of the increase postage
rate has been approved by the
senate finance committee. The
new order of things to go into
effect July of next year.
This increase of postage from two
to three cents on letters and from
one to two cents on postal cards,
was adopted as war measure and
intended only during the extent of
the war.
1t was thought by many that the
increase would have the effect of
causing the reduction in the num-
Der of letters written, but it did not
have this effect, and the increase
has been the means of bringing
into the treasury large sum of
money. In our opinion there will
have been written more letters
during this fiscal year when the
record is completed than was ever
written ia one year in the history
of the country.
1t might not be bad policy to
continue the increased postage rate
another year as a revenue getter
for helping pay the great expense
incurred by the war. No tax
could be levied that will come so
nearly reaching every one and
eqnalizing the burden SO Justly as
this postage increase would do.
But this will hardly be done.

THE COMING HOME

The return of the army from
overseas is almost as big a prop
osition as taking it to France.
1t is estimated BY the war depars-
ment that from eight to ten months
will be required. in the task of
bringing the boys home.
The department proposes the use
Of every facility at its command to
hasten the completion Of the job.
Even with the wide distribution of
the strain on port facilities and
transportation, four ports being
used, every ship at our command
and with German Eships now idle
in German harbors employed on
the task it will take at least eight
months to finish the home coming.
These estimates do not take into
consideration the question of the
retention in Europe for some time
of an American force which may
be agreed upon at the peace con-
ference.
The German ships employed can
be used, after unloading American
troops, TO carry back food supplies
allotted Germany.
The "trip across the big pond
will be robbed of the danger
feature that characterized the going
over trips incident to the operation
of the u boats which are now out of
service. Parents should not become
impatient for their boys to return,
for the government will hasten
the job all that is possible.
Carroll County democrat. (Huntingdon, Tenn.) 188?-1971, 1918-12-06

for The boys, Of course, but trust
them; they will get through every
barrage and reach their detectives
as civilians just as they did as sol
diers. All they want is chance,
and this should be given them.
Their war experience has not fem
inized them. On the contrary it
has hardened them. and made
them more manly and self-reliant.
They will know better how to
meet difficulties overcome obsta-
cles. and make their way in the
world. -News.Scimiter.

TRUST THEM

Much solicitude is felt over the
fate of the boys when they return
from over there" This is wise
and well. Anything that can be
done toward putting them in way
of life where they will have oppor-
tunity to do for themselves should
be done, bat we can trust the boys
to take care of themselves. Most
Of them were doing so before they
left here, and America is still a
land Of opportunities. The splen-
did qualities that made our boys
great soldiers will make of them
great civilians when they return to
the ways of peace.
Our women are not all vampires,
ready to seize them and lead them
to destruction when they return
home. Many of them will be
given their old positions back, and
others can find new ones. Provide

PARIS THE CENTER

Paris will soon become the capi-
tai of the world so far as news is
concerned. There will be assem-
bled the great men of all the ma
tions Of the world. to legislate for
the future of the world, to remake
in a way the world, to readjust
the boundaries of the nations of
the world, to help along the new
governments of the world, to
award to each its prerogatives and
rights upon the seas Of the world;
in other words to make democracy
safe throughout the world as long
as the world shall last.
The above from the Nashville
Banner is true, and yet we have
men in this country, members of
congress and of the senate, who
would deprive President Wilson
the privilege of being at the great
gathering.
President Wilson is recognized
as the leader along the lines pro-
posed to make democracy safe to
the world. That he is the fore
most American diplomatist should
be self evident He has had
personal charge of our foreign re-
lations in all the crises of the war.
He largely shaped the diplomacy
which brought about the armi-
stice. No man is better equipped
to represent this country, and
nothing but petty politics is caus-
ing the opposition to his attending
the conference.
There are republicans in con-
gress and out of congress as well,
who, it seems, would really rob
this country of all the glory COM
ing out.of this war, if by so doing
they could benefit the republican
party.

French Orphans

FFGHCH OfpaAdlIS
The fighting on the front has
ceased. The terms of peace are
being prepared. But there are
grave problems yet confronting
the American people.
There are millions of pitiful,
starving, homeless, disease-stricken
children Of France, beart-rending
in appeal il their sick, ragged,
living skeletons.
Gen. Joffre, the head of The
Fatherless Children of France"
has called on the American people
to help support 100000 more than
we are already supporting.
Ten cents keeps a child one day,
three dollars keeps a child one
month, and $36 so keeps a child
one entire year. This paltry sum
will keep them alive until the
French government can reeoup its
resources. The gallant Frenchmen,
who lost their lives holding the
line till we might get there, had
no opportunity to make provisions
for their children, and their lives
are in our hands. 1t is the pur-
pose and hope of Germany that
millions will fall through starva-
ton.
We are surely q more serious
minded nation than ever before,
and we can distinguish between
the things worth while-the es-
sentials from the essentials.
At the declaration of peace we felt
as if the Slough of Despond" were
lifted from our shoulders, the ten
sion was relieved; and coming,
felt as if all obligations were can
celled, and heaved a sigh of relief.
But the direct need is ahead, and
to borrow the phase of Marshal
Fosh, I'VE shall 60 on.''
1t is touching to see the tender
ness of our big, strong army, re-
vealed in the sheltering arm
stretched forth to these orphans.
Majors, colonies, lieutenants and
even privates vie with each in
their adoption. The American Ex-
peditionary Force up to Row had
adopted one thousand one hundred
and twenty eight. And they are
making a special campaign before
Christmas that the homeless and
fatherless may be promised a
happy Christmas and care and a
measure Of comfort for one year.
How many will dispense with
the nom essential Christmas gifts.
and relieve suffering humanity by
taking as a Christmas gift war
orphan! Carroll county's alIot-
ment is one hundred, and we can't
afford to come under it. We have
gone over the top'' on every pre-
vious drive and each must feel his
or her individual responsibility
and not expect some others to put
it over.
Send contributions, and for fur
ther information, apply to Mrs.
Neill Wright, who has been ap-
pointed chairman for Carroll
county.
