Pay of Army and Navy Officers.

The assistant secretary of the navy is be-
fore congress, asking for an increase in the
pay of officers and men in the navy, particu-
larly the junior officers He contrasts the earn
ings of men of the grade in and out of the serv-
ice, and shows how civil life offers greater in
ducement in the way Of material reward at
present.
moral obligation rests on the young man
who has received his expert training at gov
eminent expense to give some adequate service
in return therefor; also, he has right to ex-
pect that the public will make it possible for
him to live decently and maintain his family on
his pay. Whatever is said of the navy applies
with equal force to the army.
In the beginning of the war no class of our
citizenship was more shamelessly exploited than
the young officers entering the service. Rec
ords in congress show that one young man was
required to expend in the course of the first five
months in uniform $500 more than the govern
ment paid him, and this was not for riotous
living. The itemzed account he filed includes
only expenditures required.
A Massachusetts, congressman asserted that
the War department was holding thousands of
young men on the pay roll at higher pay than
ever they received in civil life, but examination
will very likely disclose that almost every one
of the boys who went into the service in any
capacity did so at great personal sacrifice. To
insinuate that the officers of the great military
establishment served for pay is to insult brave
and patriotic men, whose devotion can not be
measured in dollars and cents. To underpay
them is equally unfair

Our Ordnance Failure

Every new investigation of war activities
vndcates the declaration of the Globe-Demo-
crat following the signing. of the armistice that
the United States had comparatively failed in
everything in which we hoped to be conspic-
uous and had done the one thing that had been
regarded as impossible We sent over men
enough to turn the tide of battle and bring the
war to an end from six months to year sooner
than experts deemed possible. But, aside from
producing food supplies and economizing in
the use of articles of food needed by the SOL
diers and civilians of allied countries and lend
ing money to our associates, we failed in many
of our magnificent promises. We did not fur
nish a bridge of ships, wooden or otherwise,
We diverted coastwise vessels that were sea-
going and depended on other countries for the
rest of our shipping. We did not carry out
our boast as to aircraft but had to rely on
French. British and Italian service machines,
although we spent nearly billion in expert
menting. Our inventors did not work their
promised miracles. We spent millions on a
new type of submarine fighting boat that never
fought submarine. We were so slow in
adopting strictly American" rifles and machine
guns that only few ever reached France in
time to be used We relied on the British and
French factories for such weapons.
Some American artillery did reach the front
before the war ended, but an investigating COM
mittee announces that only seventy-two guns
were delivered forty-eight being IL, inches
and twenty-four being 8-inch howitzers. Only
48l had been started for France and only 4,0S2
of the 10000 contracted for had been finished.
But 81, 18l, l81,8sO had been spent by the ord
nance bureau. We also sent less ammunition
than would have been needed for artillery prep
aration for a single battle, although we ex-
pended $3,173,O54546 for making ammunition.
Whatever special mismanagement may be
shown, the record is general reflection on
our methods. Our general staff had not done
its duty, in the matter of planning. 1t did not
even use appropriations that had been made.
while the world was /aAame, and It postponed
war had existed between this country and Ger
many for three months In glorying in our
strength and fighting capacity, we should not
forget that had we been fighting alone we
should have been compelled to rely for year
or more solely on our navy. Although we
saved the day." it was only through the ar
rangements it was possible to make with our
associates.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat

We Must Educate.

Auburn, Neb., Aug. 23.-To the
Editor of The Bee: If we would
have peace, general happiness and
human well-being instead of war
and all that tends to human unhap-
piness and woe, we must educate.
The pen is mightier than the
sword and if employed to guide
Alright instead of being welded to
aid and misguide then the world
shall reap the greatly to be desired
harvest.
There are thousands, yes tens Of
thousands able to WELD the pen to
do their part in this education.
These are all for, peace and the ac-
compartments thereof; and there
are none for war except the only
half-human who are so short sighted
and so narrow that they half be-
lieve that real life and human hap
piness and well-being can be Sc
cured at the sacrifice and happiness
and lives of others. Yes, there are
others; they are the parrot-like who
only repeat what they hear, but
weigh not their words
These tens OF thousands who are
for peace and humanity, and are
able to WELD the pen today should
not be idle, but doing a righteous
part in the work of educating. They
should be doing a little, not to be-
labor the press with many words,
but to contend for great truths as
against the unholy, yes, hellish
words and lines of the sycophant
who, in the garb Of patriot or cleri-
cal robe, is today looking after dol
lars while keeping alive all that
aids in maintaining that lingering
relic of the barbarous past. The
declaration goes unchallenged that
IL it were not for the inconsistent
and false teachings on the part OF
the preachers, teachers and the pub
lie press there could be no war in
this twentieth century; and there is

DEFINITE STAND ON sHANruNo.

\ Action by the senate committee on foreign
relations will bring the Shantung affair squarey
before the senate. Its bearing on the peace
treaty is SO direct that in no way could the
issue be avoided without national dishonor
The president admits that he was not satisfied
with the provision awarding German rights in
Shantung to Japan. but he felt it was the only
way by which the latter nation could be in
duced to enter the League of Nations, and that
it was also necessary to redeem the engage
ments made in secret by Great, Britain and
France and of which this country had no notice.
He therefore asks the senate to give its consent
to the perpetuation of an international outrage.
league that starts by infcting injustice
on weak and defenseless nation is not cal
culated to inspire confidence in its integrity
Nor can any good reason be shown why Japan
should be allowed compensation at the expense
of China. The United States is looked to by
the little nations of the world as champion
but how can we sustain our credit with these
if we acquesce in the selfish grab made by the
Japanese from China?
Nothing in connection with the attempt
made at Paris to readjust the political and
economic relations of the world has so out
ragged the moral sensibilities of Americans as
the award of Shantung to the crafty and rapa-
cous Japs, unless it be the despicable efforts
of certain democratic newspapers to justify the
outrage by sneering at the patient Chinese, who
appeal to US for justice only
Public sentiment that is not blinded by the
insidious plea that war with Japan will follow
our refusal to consent to the treaty provisions
will support the senate committees action.
War with Japan is not sought nor is it likely.
The mikado and his advisers have no thought
of entering armed conflict with America The
Bee, moreover, is of the opinion that Ameri-
cans are not inclined to brook forever an atti-
tude Of belligerency on part of any nation. Ger
many ratified the sabre for years, and finally

Democrats and the Consumer.


Our democratic brethren are fzzling like a
soda fountain with the top loose, over the fail
ure of the republicans to Immediately control
the cost of living. Seven years ago the plank
in their national platform on which greatest
emphasis was laid was that promising to re-
duce costs to the consumer. Woodrow Will
son was elected on this plank, but it went into
the discard very soon, along with the other
promises made in his name. Closer home, and
little further down the lane of years, in 1917,
when the democrats controlled both branches
of the Nebraska legislature, and had governor
and all other officers to support him, an effort
was made by a Douglas county member to
secure the passage of bill to head off prof.
iteerng

Another Political Straw.

Omaha, Aug. 19.-To the Editor
of The Bee: When President Will
son was on his way home from
France the first time, an election
for congressman to fill a vacancy
was held in strong republican
district Of Pennsylvania, but owing
to a split in the republican ranks,
a democrat was elected and the
president at once telegraphed his
congratulations to the successful
democratic candidate and took it as
an indication that the people large
ly favored his league of nations
scheme. AS matter Of fact his
league OF nations was not discussed
at all in the short campaign that
was conducted. The result was
heralded all over the country by
Wilson worshipers as a great vic
tory for the president and his
ideals.
Recently a democratic congress-
congressional district of Kentucky
died. He had been elected eight
times in district that has elected
every year in all the history of the
more than 5000 votes every time.
A special election was held on
August 2, this month, and the re-
publican candidate, Capt. King
Swope, returned soldier, was
elected by 1900 majority over
popular democrat.
The victory was all the more
significant from the fact that the
primaries of the democratic party
of Kentucky were held the same
day and as it was a holly contested
primary, the democratic vote was
very large. Yet with this signif-
cant victory the republican papers
have scarcely noticed it and 1 have
wondered that they are so very
quiet about it. The result in that
district in Kentucky only presages
the coming republican cyclone that
will sweep the country with the
same tremendous force as Roose-
welt swept it in 1908.
