TO THE PEOPLE OF GRANGER

Why men of the service during the
world war should receive twelve
months pay in addition to their reg
ular salary, which was small:
Men who were called to the colors
to protect and uphold the United
States from under barbarous ruler;
to protect the women and children of
the United States; facing submarine
warfare, wading mud and water in
the trenches, and making the small
sum of from $50 to $50 per month;
leaving a job to fight for our free
dom, paying them from 500 to 5000
per month while men that did not
answer the call to colors were MAX
ing from So to $40 per day for IS
months and still making same, and
while men of the service cannot get
home as yet to share the good wages
being paid for outside labor.
Now, people of Granger County,
will you compare the wages of SER
vice men for the past 18 months to
those of men who were not called and
see for yourself how much the service
man lost and the hardships he went
through? For instance, take the rail-
road man. One of them told me Che
was a fagman) that he never made
less than 5000 per month. Figure that
for twelve months, making a total
of $2400. Then, we will take the pri-
vate making $50 per month for II
months and you will find that he
makes $3.50 per year. Now, friend,
make the comparison yourself. | am
not making this plea for myself alone
but for thousands of others that left
their dependent families to live on
the $50 per month paid him by the
government. There are state repre-
sentatives and district congressman
that can use their power to push this
along and its up to the voters of the
country to help US. / am sure there
is not voter in Granger county
but what would agree with me. No
doubt some will cy thst would put
taxes up and they are high enc
already, but suppose they did tax
the people of the United States to
pay thss, what would it amount to?
81 head each year for three years
and it would be over paid. Who is
there that can't spare one dollar more
a year? No one, will be the answer.
We will appreciate everything that
you may do to help US and thanking
you in advance, am,
Very truly yours,
r. V. BEELER, U.S.N.

THE MENACE OF
BOLSHEVISM

The sweep of Bolshevism in
Europe is assuming proportion no
longer to be ignored. While the
olenipotentiaries at the peace con-
ference in Paris are busily prepar-
ing the league of nations covenant,
the gigantic forces of the Allies and
of America which crushed the wal
lords of Germany are being demobi-
I;zed and returned to civil walks OF
life. Tired and war weary, these tight
ers are doffing their war attire and
settling to pursuits of peace through
out the countries. The peace-makers
have much to settle between them
selves before an actual peace can be
declared The Central Powers must
be robbed of their might as warriors.
Justice must be established by the
restoration of regained provinces,
and parts of Europe's map will be
changed.
The terms of the peace pact will
naturally be devised by the victors
Germany and her allies must accept
these terms, whether or not they are
willing to accept them. That they
will refuse to do so has already be-
come evident, and as last resort in
thSir helpless condition, they are as
Stunning the cloak of Bolshevism in
order to evade responsibility.
The small germ of Bolshevisn,
Matched by Trotzky and Lenine in
New York, where they lived as poor
immigrants before the war, has
grown to almost gigantic proportions
since its introduction to the ignorant
and unknowing classes of Russia who
have sought to spread their selfish
doctrine, first throughout their own
vast domain, and secondly through
propaganda to the other nations Of
the world. The spark has grown to
an immense flame, and its spread ig-
nored at first, is now alarming to
those who seek to insure peace to the
world. Dissatisfied elements, slaves
of ignorance and vicious degenerates
have been inocu1ated with the poison
Gus venom, and have turned to the
vain hope it holds fourth 10 them for
the realization of mad dreams and
desires Fallen empires have assum-
ed it to hide their real selves, which
only tends to add fuel to the flame.
The Allied Nations should not be
too hasty in assuming that the war is
over and that all that remains to be

MURDOCH FEARS
PACKERS POWER
Says. Government May Not
Be- Strong Enough to
Combat It .


Washington, Feb. Victor
Murdoch, member of the Federal
Trade Commission, told the House
interstate commerce committee yes
terday that he feared the five big
packers had acquired so much pow
er that even the United States gov
ernment might not be strong enough
to combat it. &
Even Food Administrator Hoov-
err" Mr.. Murdoch said, could not
reach into Chicago and take the Ii
cense of a great malefactor. al
though he could rescind the license
of one of the little fellows"
The testimony of the Trade Com
missioner followed his statements
that facts gathered during the COM
missions investigation of the meat
packing industry had been turned
over to the Department of Justice
and that he had no doubt that pro-
ceedings under the antitrust law
would result.
Mr.. Murdock expressed fear that
the legislative branch of the gov
ernment would deal weakly instead
of vigorously with the packers. He
said Shat the packers were well
aware where there would be va
cancies on Senate and House COM
.mittees which would consider their
case and that they would try to see
to it that their friends" got on
these committees.

The Automobile Thief

Reports from the police department

dockets of large community nearby
show that there were about 100 arrests
made last year on the charge of larceny
or automobiles. In some cases there
were In connection with other charges
such as using an automobile without
the owners consent
A noticeable condition exists that
when the guilty was sentenced or fined
on this latter charge. there was gen.
orally parole and an agreement
reached with reference to the larceny
charge.
Only one who reached the criminal
court was sentenced to four years; two
others received penitentiary sentences of
one year each. Two others were sent
to the house of correction. One for a
year, and the other for six months. OF
the balance sent to Jail. one received
80 days and the other two three
months.

way became very well known, was that
