To students of such things the rec

mere question of wages. To them the

America has been so intent upon the

to do besides Shoot in fact it is doubtful if he is
likely to be actually engaged in shooting one-thou-
sandth of the time he is in the army, even under
campaign conditions. And every one of the other
thousands of things that the soldier must do, or
that must be done for him, cost money.
Just take my own case. Fifty others and my

Next take the item of transportation. Uncle
Sam shipped me from st. Paul to jefferson Bar
racks, St. Louis, to be outftted then to Cali

state university He will ship me to some arsenal
for the second part of my course. Altogether the
cost of transportation for me will be about $780,
I figure.

instructors for each so men than there are here.
Figuring the salary and expenses allowed the Of

government, and so forth, I suppose that it will
cost nearly 500 for each student before the course
is completed. That brings the total cost per SOL

FORE I got into the army, two things used to
trouble me sometimes. I wondered why the gov
ernment needed much money to run the army,
and why it took much time to train soldiers
for action It looks simple enough to take gun,
put it into mans hands, call him soldier and
tell him to shoot. And it looks if it wouldn't
cost much, either, at "salary" of $50 per month.
But calling man soldier doesn't make him

A CLEANUP WHEN THE
BOYS COME HOME

A CLEANUP WHEN THE
BOYS COME HOME
Of course that isn't the main thing that the men
are giving. don't believe there is a man in the
course, excepting few college students who
haven't been on the payroll yet, who wasn't MAX
ing, before he entered the army, more per week
than the army pays him per month. And the pay
Of some men amounted to 10 times what they are
getting, as buck privates in the rear rank at
present.
These men are giving up more than the pay
they are losing, too. They are giving up chances
Of advancement in their chosen profession. We
hope that there won't be many casualties, but we
know, too, that there will be lot.
These men have right, they think, to expect
some things of the people at home One is that
they be supported Loyalty with the money that is
necessary to win the war-the money and the food.
And another right is that advantage be not
taken of their absence. Profteers will be TAX
ing advantage of the war to win riches at the
expense of the fighters, profits that the soldiers
will have to pay, in the form of war taxes,
when they come back.
But have before me, as write this, letter
from friend in France who went over with one
OF the first detachments. Probably he is some
where in the fighting line as read his letter,
though when he wrote it he was, he said, boring
holes. putting bolts through the holes and screw
ing nuts on the ends of the bolts and saw number
less more holes waiting to be bored.
And this is what my friend writes me:
"Over here the boys are talking a lot about what
will happen after the war is over. They wonder
what is to be done to compensate them for the
sacrifices they have made, or think they have made
in coming over. They are talking lot about
getting free land, about the government taking it
away from landlords who are holding it idle. They
are talking about going into politics to get their
rewards" .z=.#5
And then my friend goes on to ten me that HE
HAS HEARD ABOUT THE FIGHT THAT THE
NONPARTISAN LEAGUE is MAKING FOR DE-
MOCRACY AT HOME AS WELL AS DEMOC-
RACY ABROAD. He heard about it from a Mon
tana man in the same regiment, and he writes me
to get some facts, to learn what plan the farmers
Of the Middle West have for political reconstruc-
ton after the war.
And that, it seems to me, is some Indication Of
the need for some action of this kind both to back
up the nation in the fight and to see that no skuk-
ing profteers take advantage Of the absent
fighters. sY5s 800
For there are still profteers abroad. Maybe
some time later win be able to tell something of
my own experiences in that line. Meanwhile, hop

pense of providing ammunition, barracks, aero
planes, artillery, ships and food must all be added
to the individual cost per soldier and you will have
idea of why it is necessary to raise billions
upon billions by the sale of Liberty bonds and War
Savings stamps to back up the fighting men.
And figure too, on what the men who are in the
army giving. I spoke before of our getting
80 cents day while here for ration money. OF
