of the 100000 men in service
have agrarian leanings. Others,
with 10-per cent disability, NAV
take up vocational training,
Some states have made educa.
tional advances to their own
service men. The number
cared for in the educational
program is slight.
Congress has numerous
plans before it for rewarding
the discharged service men.
Those plans have been there
for months. Thousands of men
who served now wait to be
served, owing to the extraordi-
nary conditions in the country.
Some need money; others neee
Jobs. Some want land; others
an education. A great many
do not care for any compensa-
ton.
The American Legion is rath-
er looked to by congress to
state the position of the ex-
service men. BY inclusion of
all the service men in each
community, by frequent and
regular meetings wherein the
various problems may be pre-
sented for consideration, the
Legion can draw conclusions
and make suggestions. The
present congress has made no
record for accomplishing
things; the American Legion
might present its. program,
from post to national organiza-
ton, and ask the national leg
islative body to "do some
thing"

ABOUT THE STARS
Temporary Stars (Continued.)

The only explanation which seems
at all reasonable of these strange con-
flagrations in the sky is that of col
lisions. Two worlds approaching
each other at speed hundred
times greater than cannon shot and
meeting in a headon collision would
result in catastrophe too awful to be
ina agined. But it is perfectly logical
that such tragedies could happen and
perhaps do happen. 1t is said that
for every bright star in the heavens
there are at. least a hundred dark
bodies, sons that have died of old
age and have ceased to glow, and
planets and worlds which only shine
by reflected light, and of comets and
planetoids innumerable that are con-
stantly whirling through space. And
yet it is not a subject that should
cause us to lose and sleep over the
probability of a sudden destruction for
the chances of such are remote in the
extreme. While the bodies which
might collide are certainly numerous,
yet the space in which they circulate
is correspondingly large. 1t may be
also said that two bright bodies ap
preaching each other with a chance of
collision would be seen and the event
calculated to the minute of contact at
least a thousand years before happen
ing. In the case of a dark body col
liding with a sun, or of two dark bod
les the case would be somewhat diff
ferent, but even in such cases the dis
turbing effects would be noted long
before the crach. The chance of be-
coming entangled in nebula, which
would also be destructive, is altogeth-
er different matter, but one not like
ly to happen in a million years. But,
there is an end to all things and
worlds like people die and are forgot
ten. If our little world should be
suddenly snuffed out it would never
be known outside of our Polar System
and even inhabitants of our nearest
orbs would take little notice of the
event We might get a half column
in the "Martian News or the Venus
Taller" but that is all we could ex-
pect. How insignificant we are!

JOHNSON FORGETs.

6ftf ANY of those named or
THH the committee to receive
~~ Senator johnson on his
arrival in the state are declin-
ing to serve. They mean no
personal discourtesy to the
prominent visitor but they do
not want their names used in
connection with the campaign
he is waging. Johnson has
been vicious, unfair and at
times untruthful in discussing
the League of Nations. He has
dealt in half truth, unjust in
sinuation and buncombe when
the American people are en-
titled to the full and frank
truth. johnson has discussed
the subject from political
standpoint of craftsmanship.
The world has suffered
cruelty from war. The people
want peace. The old ways
brought misery and death. We
want a better way of adjusting
troubles. The league of ma
tions offers a ray Of hope. The
league plan is favored by the
best thought of this nation and
all other nations. 1t is an af-
firmative constructive policy.
Johnson breaches negation
and pessimism. He is out of
tune with the times; he is not at
all in line with the sentiment of
the progressive Pacific coast.
It is commonly believed that
johnson is running for the
presidency. If SO he is missing
something. He does not see
the graves of our soldier slain
and he forgets that those men
went braveIy to death believing
they fought in a war to wipe
out the rule of blood and iron |
and to set up a higher order of
world leadership.

WORK, SAVE, PRODUCE.

7 HE council of national de-
lkD fense has reported on its
- investigations into the
high cost of living problem.
The four ways in which it can
be combatted successfully are
summed up in four words
Work, save, cooperate, pro-
duce.
The council finds that the
nations productive powers
have not been fully utilized
since the armistice; that too
few goods, notably necessities
of life,. have been produced.
Even some of these goods have
been withheld from the market
and hence, the people.
1t finds further that the
high cost of living is due in part
to unavoidable war waste and
increase of money and credit; ;
and that there has been and is
considerable profiteering, in
territorial and unintentional.
Remedies for the present sit
uation proposed by the council
are: To produce more goods,
and in proportion to the needs
of the people; to stamp out
profiteering and unnecessary
boarding; to enforce vigorously
present laws and to enact fur
ther laws as may be found nee
essary for punishment of prof
iteers and hoarders; to effect
better cooperation and method
in distributing and marketing,
and to keep producer and con-
sumer fully informed as to
what goods are needed and as
to what supplies are available,
so that production may antici-
pate the country's demands.
Unity of purpose won the
war; it can break the living
cost, the council believes. Pro-
ducer, distributor and consum-
er, by cooperation, can bring
about relief from the present
as no other method /
can.

MORE ADEQUATE
RAIL TERMINALS
URGED IN REPORT
Are Controlling Factor in
Traffic, Says Director of
Railroad Operations.
CBy Associated Press)


WASHINGTON, Jan. 7-lnadeQuate
terminals constitute the principal linn
itation on railroads traffic capacities,
said Carl r. Gray, director Of the rail-
road administrations division OF oper
atoms, in his report for 1918, made
public today by Director General Nc
Adoo. This Is one of the great les
sons of the years operations Of rail-
roads as a unit, he declared.
Given average weather conditions"
he said, land with the exception of
the Pittsburg gateway, there Is no
question Of the ability OF railroad to
destination all of the freight Offering.
either domestic or for overseas. pro-
vided there are facilities for prompt
disposition and unloading at destina-
ton 1.-The controlling factor through
out our experience has not ben in the
road transportation. but at the ulti-
mate destination, and any serious con-
ditions of congestion obtaining on any
of the trunk lines enroute has been
the reflex of conditions at the termin-
ais themselves"
Pittsbung Situation.
In taking up the Pittsburg situation,
Mr.. Gray recommended building OF a
new esat and west trunk line avoiding
the Pittsburg industrial district.
THE extraordinary development OF
industrial activities around Pittsburg,"
he said. land the enormous tonnage
which is handled locally makes 1t very
difficult to use this gateway for trunk
line traffic and this is especially true
when the through and local business
increases coincidentally, as is usually
the case. Physical conditions which
embrae narrow gorge and large
ity. render the solution OF this prob
lem exceedingly difficult of local treat
ment. 1t is my conviction that as
soon as practicable the trunk line rail
roads through Pittsburg should be re-
lieved by the construction OF an en-
tirely new line for freight purposes,
connecting the east and west Of Pitts
burg, but avoiding the industrial area"
Referring to the limited embargo, or
permit. system put into effect during
the year, applying to shipment des-
tined for over congested terinals. or
specific consignees. the report said:
The permit system has fully justi-
fed itself. Every effort has been
made to utilize it without undue dis
elimination. To its successful opera
ton is due considerable measure of
the great improveent in moveent
which has been had during federal
control"
Much of the credit for heavier load
ing of freight cars effected during
government management was due, Mr..
Gray asserted, to the cooperation of
shippers in loading cars fuller, and
adopting different means of packing.
