Good Time to Shed Hyphens.

Little pebbles in the way of the car of peace
jostle, but do not seriously disturb its oc
cupants. One effect of the difference of opinion
at Paris has been to revive in measure the
hyphen issue in America, 1t seems this ad-
junct was not entirely laid aside while the war
was on. Now is good time to shed it entirely.
The quarrel between the Italians and the South
ern Slavs is not hmercia's quarrel Our only
concern in the affair arises though our interest
in humanity. Mr.. Wilson's decision should not
be made subject of partisan discussion at home.
Nor should the course taken be occasion for
political consideration, except as it affects the
whole people, regardless of origin. The only
good American is he who can always say whole
heartediy: my country! In her intercourse
with foreign nations may she ever be right, but
right or wrong, my country!" Let the hyphen
go absolutely to the discard and the attitude of
Americans to the world rest on that immortal
sentiment of Stephen Decatur.

OUR SOLDIERS. CLEAN AND HONEST.

" The Bee has a letter from an American sol
der serving in France whchsit conmends to
every reader for thoughtful consideration. This
man with justihahle' indignation resents the al
legation that the soldiers who went to Europe
to fight for freedom are coming home>to spread
venereal infection. 1t is monstrous that such
a charge should be made, but it has been so
insinuated by thoughtess zealots or purblind
bigots, who give NO weight to their own words,
and seemingly fail to realize how deeply they
insult every American citizen
Many months ago The Bee insisted, when
this question was under consideration, that the
boys who went into the army were from the
homes of the nation, children of the fathers
and mothers who have helped to make America
great and were going abroad supported by the
best OF influences. that of home example and
precept. 1t is true they were exposed to MANY
temptations, that many OF them for the first
time were released from the gentle restrictions
of home, but it is also true that they were sur
rounded by other influences and restrictions
quite as sincere and often more effective than
those they had just left.
Allowing all due credit to the,sarious social
agencies devoted to caring Gor the soldier dur
ing his leisure, the responsibility finally tell on
the officers OF the army These men came from
the homes of the nation ALSO and were just as
intimately concerned with maintenance of
Americas good name as any could be- They
had stronger incentive, that of keeping their
men eft to win" ard the fact that they did win
is substantial proof of the earnestness with
which these young officers, called from civil
life to the most exacting service ever required
of men, assumed and discharged the duties OF
command. -
Our army is both clean and honest. Our
soldiers went away boys, they are coming back
men, tried in the sternest school, with minds
more mature because of their experience and
discipline, but with hearts as pure and ideals
as lofty as those they took away. If they
have been disillusjoned, it has not been in
regard to the American way of living

Are We Getting the Whole TRUTH

An incident of the trouble at Paris will
greatly disturb the whole American people. 1t
is the present report that Preniiers Lloyd
George and Clemenceau did not give approval
to the address Of President Wilson to the Italian
people on the Fiume issue. When the address
was cabied to Amesica, it was accompanied by
"a message specifically saying that the British
and French prime ministers had given it their
unreserved endorsement, the language attributed
to them being exact. Now comes an official
statement setting forth:
"The report that Premier Clemenceau and
Premier Lloyd George approved of Presi-
dent Wilson's statement is inaccurate. The
statement was read to M. Clemenceau and
Mr.. Lloyd George, and President Wilson in
! formed them that he intended to issue it.
M. Clemenceau and Mr. Lloyd George were
anxious that Mr.. Wilson should postpone
publication in the hope that arrangement
might be arrived at. The president thought,
however, that the time had arrived and his
statement was issued on his own response
bility."
The Importance of this is in its effect on the
public mind If the account of the proceedings
sent for Americans was inaccurate on this most
vital particular, when accuracy of statement
ordinarily would be insisted upon, what is the
public to think Of other features OF the reports
that have been coming through?
Are we being deceived or misled by colored
or partisan statements where we should have
only unbiased facts? Is it possible that the
prediction made by Senator Cumnlins when
Burleson seize the cables is being verified, and
that only those reports are permitted to be sent
as are favorable to the presidents plans?
1t is unthinkable that Mr.. Wilson would be
party to such deception, but it is apparent
that some overzealous person connected with
his train has cast cloud over all the stories
that will come out until the people have been
given assurance that only the truth is to be told.
And such assurance will best be furnished by
a complete removal of the censorship over cables.
