 "Hundrcds of thousands of build- ings will be erected on cheaply ac' auired land with public money loan ed at low rates to farmers, garden CTS and country artisans. Houses will be built for workers, employees, and officials belonging to sedentary occupations and transferred to them on the payment of a moderate DOT ton of the actual costs.

THE SOLDIER IN POLITICS.

In a recent issue of The Graphic an editorial appeared giving an inti- nation that the soldiers could be expected to take a hand in politics when the boys have returned to the United States, and the suggestion was made that it was very likely that one of those serving in France would oc- cup the governors mansion before many years.
 But the matter has already taken concrete form by Mississippi soldiers. The boys from that state have already taken action and on the battle front causes have been held, and one of their number has been named as the probable next governor of Mississippi According to communication to the Commercial Appeal the members of 155th infantry, during a celebration of the signing of the armistice, by reso- lutiOn proposed the name of Major John c. Sheffield as the next governor of Mississippi.
 When the boys have returned home they are going to come mighty near getting what they want, and there are going to be manp others who will help them in taking charge of afafirs.
 Coming home with broader pros pective than that entertained before their leaving for the theatre of war, one need not be surprised if many of the ideals are discarded when the sold iers are ncontrol, as surely they will be, when reconstruction has been per- fected

ENDORSE GRAPHIC'S EDITORIAL.

I certainly want to heartily en- dorse the editorial in this mornings Graphic" said lady of Pine Bluff yesterday. "A town without an up-to- date opera house is without one of the necessary requisites of a modern town. I saw the Elks' opera house burn, and it was with heavy heart that saw this play house consumed. Every town needs play house where the people may have good and whole some amusement In past years when there was an opera house in Pine Bluff some of the best theatrical com binations in the south made this town. When it was not necessary for the people to journey 10 d neighboring city to attend the operas and other performances.
 "1f those who have the interest of the town at heart will act upon the suggestion of the Graphic the entire citizenry of Pine Bluff will be grate full"
 Of course the Graphic is gratificd to know that the suggestion meets with approval, as we believe the sub ject is a live one now since the war sacrifices are no longer necessary, it is time we gave some thought to civic matters. Let others consider the opera house proposition.
