Sugar Coating Child Labor.

DR.. c. A. Prosser at the head of the Federal
Board for Vocational Education, has prepared a
neat camouhage for child labor. He does not,
he told gathering Of southern textile manufac-
turers, believe in educating child until 1t is IA
or IS years old in an old-fashioned school, On
the contrary, he holds that work itself is educa-
tional and. therefore, he proposes 4 combination
Of the two as solution for the child labor prob
lem, to which he thinks too much attention Is
being given by enthusiastic reformers. By his
plan of vocational training he will provide for
the education of the child while at work, and thus
solve the cotton mill owners problem, at the
same time satisfying the opponents Of child labor
DR.. Prosser is due for a shock If he thinks the
sentiment against employment Of children in cot
ton mills or elsewhere is to be lulled by the ad-
ministration Of sugar-coated pill such as he
here offers His plan, naturally, has the approval
OF the southern gentlemen to whom it was pre-
sented, but it may not get by with the public
that has so long and vehemently protested
against practice that robs childhood Of its birth.

TO THE MEUsE, OR TO THE RHINEa

No amount of critical hair-splitting or expert
analysis will detract from the fact that the Ger
mans have had another terrific pounding within
the last week, and that the end is not yet Brit
ish and French have delivered blows from which
the Hun line has recoiled, shattered and broken,
and under which it is retiring steadily, if stub
bornly The persistence with which the attack
has been maintained testiies to the thorough
ness Of the preparations made and the effective
ness with which operations back Of the firing line
are being carried on.
Just at present the old Hindenburg line is ac-
cepted as the final goal to which German re-
tirement will reach, yet some signs are noted that
suggest the likelihood of the Meuse being ac-
cepted as the location for the next stand of the
kaiser. This naturally depends on the outcome
Of Haig's effort against the crown prince Of Ba-
varia, who commands the German right wing. If
the British succeed in turning the Bavarians and
this is quite within the range of probabilities, the
Meuse will be an early stopping point, and even
the Rhine may not be too far for the retirement
Absence OF news of Americans in the present
great movement has given rise to much specua-
ton and color to the report that Our army might
be used in an effort to disodge and roll up the
left wing OF the enemy. Successful attack in AL
sace-Lorraine would have reflex on the entire
German position and hasten the retreat from
France and Flanders. That Pershing is to play
great part in Foch's battle plan is admitted, and
events will soon disclose what that is to be. At
present it is enuogh to know the enemy is re-
treating in an effort to evade battle.

The nomination of Senator Norris by
scarcely third of the votes in the repub-
lcan primary because the field against him
was divided between four competitors is
hardly surprising to anyone who was able
to size up the situation in advance. 1t IS an
open secret that efforts were made to unite
the win -the-war opposition behind single
candidate, and that while Congressman Sloan
manifested his readiness to enter confer
ence to discuss the question, Mr.. Hammond
refused even to talk it over, with the inevita-
Bile consequence as shown in the returns:
This recalls bit of political history illus
trating the same difficulty which is con-
stantly presented undtr our primary system
and lack of controlling party organization,
to prevail upon men to subordinate their per-
sonal ambitions to the party welfare ant the
success of the ticket. The incident l refer
to occurred eight years ago on the threshold
of the campaign of 1910, when the possibility
of redeeming this congressional district for
the republicans hung in the balance.
Four candidates were figuring for the re-
publican nomination for congres-"Iom'
Blackburn, Charles L. Saunders, Judge Sut..
ton and A. w. Jefferis. l called each of
them by phone, and, without disclosing what
wanted, extended ID an invitation to meet me
at my Office at desigi ated hour to talk over
the political situation When the time ap-
preached they began arriving one by one,
each with a self-satished and expectant air,
registering high political barometer. But as
each newcomer found his rival there the
countenances turned first to blank curiosity,
then to dubious incredulity, and finally to
armed neutrality.
To my guests explained with perfect
candor that thought we had chance to
elect republican congressman that year,
provided we could get together upon salts
factory candidate and put our united strength
behind him without using up in bitter pri-
mary fight the ammunition that would be
needed to overcome the political enemy.

ences among them, was ready to give my
support and the support of The Bee to which,
ever one of them they should agree upon
among themselves to make the race. Incl
dentally pointed to the fact that there were
other Offices on the ticket to be filled-the
county attorney, the state senator's, etc
which would be open to those who might be
foreclosed from the quest for congress.
IF you will let one of your number have
the congressional nomination without a con-
these other places, am sure we will have
an invincble combination and you will all
win out. If you go into this primary fight
ing one another, three must be losers at the
outset and the nominee will have an uphill
job to beat his democratic opponent"

Stubble Fields, Hot Air and Corn Fields

Rainmaker Wright might find new occupation
for his wonderful gift OF saesmanship were he
to return to the scene Of his activity of twenty
five years ago. A new cult is growing up, to
the service of which he might with profit devote
his unique talent. This has to do with the prop
aganda against the stubble fields of Oklahoma
and Kansas.
Whether or not the belief is we'll founded in
physical law, many Nebraskans hold to the opn-
ion that the hot winds of August arise from the
denuded patches of ground from which our
southern neighbors have cut their wheat This
belief is crystallizing into what may take the
form of action. A demand is made that the
farmers to the south of us be required to plow
their fields as soon as the grain is cut thus
lessening the refracton and to that much de-
creasng the likelihood of simeon.
Meteoroogists know that warm air arises
faster from freshly powed ground than from
green field; If this is true, the proposed remedy
would increase rather than cure the trouble.
Stubbe is yellow, and yellow is complement
tary color of green, the latter being produced
by adding blue to yellow. 1t should, therefore,
follow that the unplowed field would be the less
likely to heat up the air and set the whitening
blasts into motion. Moreover, it might be as
eertained by little research that the genesis of
the hot wind is due to other causes than a newly
cut wheat field.
For example, the deadly gale Of early August
possibly could be ascribed to the wind-up of the
primary campaign just across our southern bor-
der. 1t will be well to look into all the collateral
causes before determining on probable corrective
measures Protection to Nebraska corn fields
from Kansas hot air, no matter whence it orig
mates, is much to be desired, but let us be cer-
tain where we are going before we start to fix
things. . ....g
