COMPENSATION BILL Is READY
Act Would Have State Insure Work
men Against Injury.

JEFFERSON CITY, Dec. 1O.-Copies
of the Workmen's Compensation Bill
formulated by a committee from the
state federation of labor and build
ing trades councils are being received
here, with extracts from the Ohio
laws on the same subject and argu-
ments showing the desirability of the
state engaging in casualty insurance
as a part of the legislative program.
The Ohio law monopolizes this kind
of insurance and it is proposed to en-
act the same law here as an adjunct
of the Workmen's Compensation Act.
The act will be introduced in both
houses soon after they are organized.
The benefits are twO-thirds of the
wages being earned by the injured
persons. A workman who had lost
his major arm in an accident would
be entitled to receive twO-thirds of
his full salary over a period of 24O
weeks; for the loss of an eye, one
hundred weeks, and so one down the
scale to eight weeks. No period of
compensation is to exceed six hundred
weeks, save in case of total disability,

no TRUCE FOR THE RED CROSS

Sunday marks the opening of the
Christmas membership campaign Of
the Red Cross.
Sunday should also mark the end
ing of the campaign. By Sunday night
every person in Columbia should be
enrolled as a member of the organ
iZatiOn.
The war may be over for most per-
sons, but the war is never over for
the Red Cross. Caring for wounded
soldiers is only part of its task. Here
in Columbia we have seen it help i'll
the influenza epidemic-giving cash,
equipment and time to the starting of
new hospitals. 1t is to carry on anti
tuberculosis work throughout the ma
tion, as it has in past years. In ev-
cry time of emergency it is called
upon.
The membership fee is only 81, and
Columbians must remember that that
takes the place of the amounts We
were formerly asked to put into the
Red Cross anti-tuberculosis seals ev-
cry Christmas.
Be ready to say, Certainly" when
you're asked to join.

broken bones and bloodshed for both
sides.
Similarly, there is a chance OF
war resulting in a victory for the
right, as the recent great war has re-
suited, but there is as great chance
of a victory for injustice, as in the
Franc0-Prussian War of 1871. And
regardless of how a war ends, it is
bound to leave a trail of bankruptcy,
suffering and death.
Our civil courts, of course, do not
do justice in every case, but no one
would abolish them and let men fight
out their quarrels. If an information
al court turned out just decisions
even a little oftener than unjust ones,
it would have at least as good record
as Mars has made in settling dis
putes; and the saving in human life
and treasure can not be overestimated.

A JURY OR A CANNONl

With a League of Nations almost
within our grasp, is it conceivable
that we shall let discussion in this
country snatch it away?
Is it conceivable that with the din
of conflict still in our ears and with
the casualty reports still pouring in
we shall refuse to take any step which
offers a reasonable likelihood of pre-
venting future wars? Shall We cling
to the junker view that war is inevita-
BILE, and is not half bad, anyway, sc
long as We are on the winning side:
America is not going to the peace
conference to extort colonies or in
IDENTITIES or trade concessions from
a defeated goe. That's not what we
were fighting for. We were fighting
to free ourselves from the fear Of fu-
ture wars. We have downed the i'm
mediate menace of a victorious Ger
many, but the system of settling in
ternational disputes with powder re-
mains. Our dead and MANNED have
given their lives and their bodies in
vain if, after they have completed their
portion of the job, we, the living and
the uninjured, shall throw away the
fruits of victory.
If ever the people of the United
States needed to think clearly, the
time is now.
Opponents of the League of Nations
consider it intolerable that the Unit
ed States should abandon, in part its
sovereignty by agreeing to submit its
controversies, however, vital, to an in
ternatiOnal court, the majority OF
whose members must of necessity be
composed of the representatives of
foreign governments"
But isn't that just what every in
dividual does when he submits to our
present system of civil courts in this
country and every other country? In
olden days there was such a thing as
trial by combat, when. instead of a
dicial decision based on the outcome
timony and argument. there was a ju-
dicial decisions based on the outcome
of fight between the litigants or be-
tween fighters hired by the litigants
There was a chance, of course, that
the decision reached would be a jus.
one; but even if it were, there were
