WIRE LINE OWNERS URGE CONGRESS TO
 PROTECT FINANCES

WASHINGTON, May 29.-Provision against financial embarrassment of the telephone and telegraph system of the country in returning them to their owners, was asked of congress by witnesses appearing before the senate interstate commerce committee at its initial hearing today on legislation for the return of the wire system.
 The request that the government in turning back the wires protect the owners was made by N c. Kingsbury, vice-president of the American Tele- phone & Telegraph company; F, P. McKinnon, vice-president of the Uni ted States Independent Telephone as. sociation; F. c. Stevens of St. Paul, representing other independent tele- phone companies; Edward Reynolds, recently deposed by Postmaster Gen eral Burleson as general manager of the Postal Telegraph-Ca company, and H. L. Reber of St. Louis, presi- dent of the Kinloch Telephone com pany. Charles E. Elmquist of the Ma tional Association of Railway & Pub lie Utility commissions urged that the system be returned without any remedial legislation.
 Chairman Cummins said the commit tee plans to agree upon a bill without delay and would be ready to submit a report to the senate by Monday.
 The senate committee was told by most of today's witnesses that wire systems should be returned immedi ately to private companies. Vice. President Kingsbury and McKinnon and MT. Stevens urged that toll rates established by Mir Burleson be retain ed until state commissions could de- termine their justice. Legislation in- surfing payment of compensation by the government to independent tele- phone companies also was urged.
 MT. Reynolds severely criticized Postmaster General Burleson, charg- ing that he had discriminated against the Postal and in favor of the Western Union and that his motive was to de. stroy competition.

TEACHERS PENSIONS.

The subject of pensions for teachers
N public schools of Kansas has come
up for discussion in the legislature.
OF vastly more importance to the
schools of the state as well as to the
teachers. is the matter of adequate
pay for the work performed. If teach
ers were paid as they should be the
matter of pensions would dwindle in
Importance. .--.s
If school boards, legislators, county
and city would Immediately announce
the policy of doubling the average
salary of teachers within the next five
years and of adding not less than SO
per cent more within the ten years
following the expiration of this period.
so that at the end of fifteen years the
average salary of public. school teach
ers would be not less than S1,5O0-
about one and half times larger than
they receive at present-and then take
steps for carrying out this policy,
much good would be accomplished
thereby at once.
Such a policy and such a prospect
would attract to the schools more men
would hold them, working contentedly
and, therefore, profitably for the chill
dren and the public welfare. Such in
crease in salary should carry with it
an increase of not less than 25 per
cent in the average length of the
school term, which is now less than
| $50 days. To those who are not ac-
Quainted with conditions and who have
given the matter little thought, the

No person who is fit to take the
time and money and opportunity OF

DOROTHY DIX TALKS
BY DOROTHY DIX
Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.
The In-Law Problem Again.. =

inc lH-l1aW frODlem AssaiH.-2.
The young wife feels that marriage
gives her an absolute and complete
monopoly of the man to whom she is
married. She does not remember that
years and years before he was her
husband he was this other woman
son.
She does not remember that this
other woman went down into the val
ley of the shadow to bring him thru
the gates of life. She does not re-
member how this other woman has
worked for him, and sacrificed for
him; how she has watched by his bed
thru weary nights of sickness; how
she has stinted and denied herself to
give him an education and a chance
in the world, and to make him the
kind of a man who would be a good
husband to this girl he has married.
1t would seem that if a young wom-
an had an atom of generosity in her
soul she would be filled with graft
tude and appreciation to this woman
who has done SO much for the man
she loves, and that if she had n par
ticle7 of intelligence she would realize
that because a man marrieS it does
not automatically stifle his affection
| for the mother he has adored, any
more than it kills her affection for
him. Also she would reflect that they
| two must have millions of things to
talk over together, and that they must
yearn to. sometimes be alone together
without even a beloved third party
| present.
Certainly a wife borTows trouble
without reason when she torments
| herself by imagining that her hus-
| band and mother spend their few pre-
cious moments alone discussing her
| faults. Also she brings upon herself
| by doing SO the very thing she fears,
| for every mother-in-law' is so grateful
to the daushter-in-1aw who treats her
halfway decent1y that she goes about
singing her praises. Nor can any wife
| do a thing that so endears her to her
husband as just to be good and kind
| to his mother.
On the other hand, the mother-in-
| law fails to realize that when her son
marrieS it alters his relationship to
her. Or rather hers to him. 1t rele-
gates her to the second place in his
| life. She is no longer queen but the
queen dowager.
| OF course it is hard for q mother
who has been in the habit of running
her sons affairs for twenty-five or
thirty years to step down and out, and
turn over the job to another woman.
1t is doubly hard when she sees that
| this woman is young, and inexperl-
enced and incompetent, but if life has
taught her a particle of wisdom, she
| shuts her teeth on her tongue and
keeps silent and offers neither sug-
gestion nor warning.
But there is no way to settle the in
law proposition until women develop
into altruistic saints who prefer an
others happiness before their own
and there is TO pleasant prospect OF
Ethat coming to pass. In the meantime
the only way to modify the situation
is for no mother-in-law and daughter
in-law to ever attempt the disastrous
| experience of trying to live under the
| same roof.

/ LARGER MONROE DOCTRINE


If the war just closed has accom-
plished anything it has demonstrated
that the world has become so small,
and the destinies of the inhabitants
thereof so closely intermingled, that
what affects the liberties and safety
of one people affects the liberties ana
safety of all. Distances have been
brushed away, until neither oceans
nor mountain chains form barriers to
encroachments, while navigation of
the air has completely and absolutely
destroyed the self-satisfying isolation
which any nation may have felt here
tofore.k
The proposed league of nations to
enforce peace is being assailed by
statesmen in Washington, who may be
well meaning, but are decidedly reac-
tionary. They assail the league con-
stitution ON two grounds: that it con-
travenes the federal constitution, and
that it jeopardizes the Monroe doc
trine. ~
The constitution of the United
States is great instrument which has
long been rightly revered, but to as
sert now that that great charter of lib
erty prevents the people of this coun-
try from playing their part in bringing
peace and order and happiness to our
selves and the other peoples of the
world is a novel. not to say startling.
statement to make. If the constitu-
ton contain such restrictions, it was
unconstitutional for us to send our
troops TO Europe to defend the very
liberties which that document con-
ferred upon us.
AS regards jeopardizing the Monroe
doctrine. which means the watchful
guardianship by the strongest power
in America of the weaker nations on
this continent, it strengthens rather
than destroys it. The league of ma
tions means the extension of this Mon
roe doctrine over the world. Thru the
league of nations we are extending our
sphere of Influence and power. and II
the application of that principle was
proper in a limited sphere-this con-
tinent for instance-it certainly is
sphere contemplated. The only diff
ference is that others join US in the
mandate.
To apply at this time the doctrine OF
avoiding entanglins alliances, says In
vestment News in an editorial discus
sion of the proposed league, is to at
tempt to tur- back this country one
hundred years, a reactionary proceed
ing which cannot succeed.
America in the last twenty months
has outgrown its old garments; it has
kept pace with the march of events; ii
has become a world power-its mani
fest destiny-and5 as a world power il
must act hereafter. 1t would be de-
plorab1e if J. handful of senators al
/ Washington should succeed in defeat

dured in the war.

AS has been suspected, the league
of nations plan adopted at Paris, is
the one proposed by England. This
fact accounts for the omission of ref
erence to freedom Of the seas. And it
is in the interest OF future world
peace that England's n3vaI power be
not curtailed. There would be a diff
ferent story to tell regarding the Great
War had 1t not been for the British
navy. England, as well as the United
States. can be safely relied upon nav
eF to use her power, naval or other,
except in a just cause. For a league
of nations to be successful there
must abide somewhere the means of
enforcing It's DEGREES, and these means
must be easily and quickly available.

sponsibility on the ocean, let her
