THE HOME COMERS.

It is reported that many of our returning soldiers
land sailors instead of going back to their homes enter
ing the large cities to seek employment
The large cities are preparing to take of their
old jobs in preference to engaging non-residents.
Two things complicate the employment question in
cities at present One that many employers have been
forced by the wartime distinction between essential and
nonessentia industries to lessen their product and must
wait the indications of returning demand to increase
it.
The second consideration is that many women and
older men have taken the places of young men, and in
many cases their services cannot in fairness be mmed
atey dispensed with.
These conditions will nake>the city difficult place
at present for the young men from small towns It will
be better for such young to return to his own home,
where he is well known and take his old job for the time
being He can watch the development Of business and
make his descent upon the city when conditions appear
favorable

HOW WILL THEY BE ANSWERED

The great war through which the world is passing
has changed the course of the lives of many Millions as
well as terminated the lives of other millions 1t has ia
ken out from their accustomed environment millions OF
men to subject them to all sorts of Illuminating expert
ences and has enlarged and wdened the view point OF
all men. :,
All admit that these great changes in men will be
followed by similarly great changes in the social fabric
of the world with remarkable changes in the economic
and political structure Men who thought before
upon the theory and practice of government are studying
ali those problems now and they will reach conclusions
lpon which they will act. Men who have rlsked their
lives and seen their companions die for the sake OF DEM
ocracy will ask very plain questions OF those sell
STYLED aristocrats who have based their claims to superb
oty upon possession of wealth and control OF the means
by which wealth is produced They going to ask why
those who do the fighting for democracy IN tune OF war
fare little or no better time of peace than do those who
have fought for auocracy They going to ask why
one class of men can roll in luxury while others nave TO
struggle from childhood to the grave for pfu est-
ence They are going ask why peace between classes
within nation is not as desirable peace between ma
tons an -, e

JEWISH WAR WORKER

Mortimer L. Schiff Tells Young

Good Work

Criticism Of the Young Mems Chris

Mr.. Schiff, who is member Of the

work of the welfare organizations min
ig'crrs to the needs Of the troops, and
TO effect a closer co ordination Of these
agencies.
In Europe he visited all the Jewish
welfare board centers and many Of the
centers operated by other agencies. In
an effort to determine whether any of
the criticism directed against the Y. NJ.

ANOTHER VOTE NEEDED
SAYS SUFFRAGE CHIEF
Necessary Two-thirds in Senate
Is Not Pledged, Warns
Miss Alice Paul

Miss Alice Paul, national chairman Of
the woman's party, says the woman
suffrage amendment is again threatened
with defeat unless the leaders of the
Republican party secure another vote, or
President Wilson gains the support of
an additional Democrat.
The statement was made following q
discussion of the suffrage situation with
a number of prominent local suffragists.
In part Miss Paul said:
'In spite of repeated statements by
the Republican leaders that the amend
mcnt will pass as soon as Congress con.
vencs, suffragists cannot rest content
while one of the necessary two thirds
vote is still unpledged.
'"The failure Of Senator's Dial. Of

positions involves the situation in un =

Of the four uncertain men three are
Democrats and one Republican. Of
those pledged, thirty eight are Re-
publcans and twenty five are Demo
Gratis. OF those against there are ten
Republicans and nineteen Democrats

DEFENDS CITY CHARTER
Proposed Police Commission Called
Insult by Forum TaIker

Criticism of the proposal for n com
mission to conduct the Philadelphia po-
lice department was made last night
by Frederick Gutenberg, of the Bureau
Of Municipal Research, in the Peoples
Forum in the parish house Of the First
Unitarian Church.
The proposal of police commission
for Philadelphia is fragrant case of
cynical contempt for Philadelphia s abil-
ity to think for ITSELF he observed. ut
is the worst insult to the city I have
ever seen. The motives arc patiently
wrong. Ten cities have tried. nnd all
but three have given up the idea. Bos
ron is tho only one where it has been
suc"cSsful.'
Mr.. Gutenberg declared that so far
aS city charters were concerned, this
city was not the worst in the world.
Charter revision and state "UnStit'-
tional conventions. he said, were good
things, but not panaCPas.
