Graves is big and powerful physi-

through thickets, always meeting stiff
machine gun fire and when he got
them to one of the German reserve

find that the bOche commanded the
frontal approach, which was down Il
long narrow valley.

Graves rOared in German. 50 he could
be heard above the noise of battle.
The only reply to his challenge was
another vollcy Of machine gun bull

ECONOMIC NEED
Government Urges Shippers, Farmers,
Merchants to Release Labor
AID TO PRODUCTION
QUESTION ONE RECONSTRUCTION AS WELL AS WAH.
MEANS MORE GOOD ROADS.

Fifty per cent of the products raised
on the farms in the United States
never reach the market because OF
lack OF transportation facilities. The
whole world il hungry, will be SO for
years to come, and yet thousands of
tons of fruits and vegetables rot on
the ground every year because means
are not at hand to get supplies to the
consumer.
These statements are not the uncrit-
ical utterances of a careless observer.
They come direct from Herbert G.
Hoover. United States Food Admins
traitor and the greatest authority on
food conditions today.
Upon the American farmer rests the
task OF feeding not alone America but
out army and navy and to a large eI-
tent our allies and neutral nations.
Every channel by which he may move
his products should be opened to him
and every possible aid extended.
The railroads alone are unequal to
the task and every increasing por-
tion OF their tonnage must be devoted
to transportation of war supplies.
Domestic trade must take second place
and II the war were to stop tomorrow
the railroads would still be taxed to
their utmost limit and would be un-
able to handle all OF the transportA-
tion alone.
This handicap would be serious
enough for the farmer were It all.
But IL is not The farmer Ia the only
producer who carries his own wares
to market today. To do IT he must
neglect his farm when he is most
needed there. Under ordinary condi-
tons this method is wrong. Today

methods work an injustice to him. n

COMPENSATION
LAWS PASSED
FIRST IN 1911
WIDE RANGE OF DIFFER
ENCE AMONG STATES.
Washington and Kansas Were PiO-
neers in Passing Permanent Legis-
lation; 81 States and Territories
Provide for Workmen's Law.

The first permanent state compen-
sation laws were enacted by Washing
ton and Kansas on March IA, 1911,
says the United States bureau of labor
statistics in bulletin No. 230, which is
a complete history and exhaustive ex-
PLANTATION of the various theories of
workmen's compensation now in op-
Grafton in this country.
| Washington and Kansas were the
first to pass permanent legislation of
this character, but the Wisconsin law
was the first to become effective, May
3, 1911, the date of it's passage. Since
then thirty-seven states and three ter
ritories have passed these laws, while
the federal law has been amended to
include all civil employees.
Prior to 1911 several states had
enacted workmen's compensation laws.
which were declared unconstitutional.
The first Legislation in the United
States providing for stated benefits
payable without suit or proof of neg
ligence was the cooperative law of
Maryland. which applied to mining,
| quarrying, railways and municipal
construction work. This law was held
to deprive parties of the right of trial
by jury.
No two compensation laws are alike.
A number of provisions have been
adopted quite uniformly by nearly all
the states, and those of certain states
have been taken as models by others
In only two states (Hawaii and New
Jersey is agriculture included, and
domestic service is exempted in all
but one state New Jersey.
The reason for the almost universal
exclusion of agriculture in the United
States, the bulletin says, can hardly

character. European experience, COM
bined with available accident Stats
tics in this country, proves quite con-
clusively that agriculture is highly
hazardous employment. The belief is
expressed that the opposition of the
farming element explains the exclu-
sion in thirty-eight states of agricul-
tural laborers from the benefits of
compensation acts.
1t is stated that probably no phase
of workmen's compensation has Gre
ated more ill feeling than the question
of free choice of physicians. In pre-
senting the workers side of this ques-
tion the bulletin says the injured man
has most at stake.
1T is he, and not the employer, or
physician, who suffers; it is his life
that hangs in the balance A man
desires doctor whom he knows, with
whom he can freely and unreservedly
discuss his ailment, and in whom he
has confidence.
'The theory that it is cheaper for
the employer to furnish unlimited med
ical and hospital service on the ground
that it reduces compensation costs by
an early restoration of earning power
has not been universally accepted by
employers and insurers. Only four Of
the forty states provide for unlimited
medical service"

the reasons for this transference:
One motor truck can do the work OF

four hours out of a day II necessary.
One motor truck operating between
several towns can carry all OF their
products and release all OF the teams

provides a direct door to door dsliv

costs. supplies the consumer with
fresh products and relieves congestion
at rail points. thus enabling Uncle
Sam to devote his energies to th-

The truck cuts down the number OF
horses kept by the farmer. reduces
the heavy cost OF winter feeding and
finally by reducing forage raised. re-
leases labor for work on acreage de-
voted TO supplying human wants.

DEMOCRACY
BY WILLIAM MILL BUTLER.

Great mother of newborn race,
All earth shall be thy dwelling place;
Democracy, thy holy name
Shall set the continents aflame,
Shall thrill the islands of the sea,
And keep thy children ever free.
From Gods eternal universe
Shalt thou remove the primal curse
Which man upon his fellow-man
Imposed since first the world began;
Away with slaves, deprived of rights,
And lily fingered parasites!
For thus the new-world purpose we
Can, step by step, unfolded see;
Columbus sailed, at Gods behest,
From lands by wicked kings op-
pressed
His messenger, to search the earth
And find the place for Freedoms
birth.
Then up rose peerless Washington,
With many another dauntless son,
Whose spirit, caught beyond the blue,
Encompassed France, and Europe, too,
Until the purpose of the Lord
Was plainly written with the sword
Out of it all-Democracy!
The final word of Gods decree,
To carry out His cherished plan
OF peace on earth, good will to man.
Therefore, arise, ye people, sing
This heaven-born and glorious thing!
