AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT
PREVENTS LOSS OF FOOD

Washington. d. C.-Methods for pre-
yening spoilage Of large quantities Of
poultry, eggs shrimp, fish and other
food products have been recently de.
veloped by specialists Of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture. The practice of
the department is to take various speci.
mems of food that spoil easily in ship
ping and. by experimenting with them
in the chemical laboratories. determine
what conditions lead to breaiage or de-
terioration. The results of these inves-
legations are then tested in carload lot
shipments from various points. BY
suggesting the best methods of ship
ping, including principally tempera-
ture and packing conditions, millions
of dollars worth Of food has been saved
by the department in the last year.

Fears League VIII Breed Wars

Fears League VIII Breed Wars
The committee believes that the
league as it stands will breed wars in.
stead Of securing peace. They also
believe that the covenant of the league
demands sacrifices Of American in
dependence and sovereignty which
would In no way promote the world i
peace, but which are fraught with the
graVest dangers to the future safety
and well being Of the United States.
The amendments and reservations
alike are governed by a single pur.
pose, and that is to guard American
rights and American sovereignty, the
invasion of which would stimulate
breaches of faith, encourage conflicts,
and generate wars. The United States
can serve the cause of peace best as
she has served it in the past, and do
more to secure liberty and civilization
throughout the world, by proceeding
along the paths she has always follow
ed and by not permitting herself to be
fettered by the dictates Of other nations
or immersed and entagled in all the
broils and conflicts Of Europe.
I'VE have heard it frequently said
that the United States must do this
and 90 that in regard to this league of
nations and the terms of the German
peace There is no must about it,.
Must is not word to be used by for
eign nations or domestic officials to the
American people or their representa-.
tives.
Equally uniting is the attempt to
frighten the unthinking by suggesting
that if the senate adopts amendments
or reservations the United States may
be excluded from the league. This is
the one thing that certainly will not
happen. The other nations know well
that there is no threat of retaliation
possible with the United States be
cause we have asked nothing for our
selves and have receive nothing. We
seek no guarantees, no territory, no
commercial benefits or advantages. The
other nations will take us on our
own terms, for without us their league
is a wreck and all their gains from a
Victorious peace are imperiled. We
exact nothing selfish for ourselves. but
we insist that we shall be the judges,
and the only judges as to the pre-
servation Of our rights. our sovereign.
ty, our safety, and our independence.
AT this moment, the United States
is free from any entanglements or
obligations which legally or in the
name of honor will compel her to do
anything contrary to the dictates of
conscience or to the freedom and the
interests Of the American people. This
is the hour when we can say precisely
what we will do and exactly what We
will not do and no man can ever ques.
ton our good faith if we speak now.
When we are once caught in the
meshes Of a treaty of alliance or a
league OF nations composed of 20 pow.
ers. our freedom Of action is gone. To
preserve American independence and
American sovereignty and thereby best
serve the welfare of mankind, the com
mittee propose these amendments and

seamen than any nation ever did, and
the arrangements to care for the nearly
two hundred thousand men disabled

dent In camp are near completion.
When this army returns there will be
no need for public charity which might
mar self-respect.
The federal board of vocational edu-
cation, operating under the vocational
rehabilitation act, will restore health,
and in the case of permanent injury
teach trades that may be followed.
During the process the pupils living

and In addition his dependents will be
paid an allowance.
But it is for the decision Of the sol
der or seaman and his relatives
whether he elects to take the course.
When the course is completed the
board will obtain suitable employment
and keep an eye on the man so that
his interests may be guarded. The
status of the man during the period
of training is described as follows:
"The amount of monthly compensa-
ton paid will be equal to the sum to
which he is entitled under the war
insurance act, or a sum equal to the
pay of his last month in the service.

sum paid to the dependents.
'The man whose disability does not
prevent him from returning to employ.
ment without training will be given
the course of vocational training
which he chooses.

man will not in any way affect his |
compensation. Upon completion of |
his course he will continue to receive

CHURCH To- ASSIST
IN RECONSTRUCTION
REV. BRIDGE MAKES STRONG
APPEAL FOR HELP OF
CHURCH IN WORK

A demand that the church take part
IN the social reconstruction after the
war and that the attention be turned
especially toward the elimination Of
poverty, were the strong points in a
sermon preached by. the Rev. w. H.
Bridge at st. Marks Episcopal church
yesterday.
The war means change in do
nestle as well as foreign AFFAIRS
declared Mr.. Bridge. ''The working
class is making demands and it rests
with the church whether this change
come peaceably and by mutual con-
sent or whether it be revolutionary"
Mr.. Bridge urged the members of
his church to carefully consider the
demands of the British labor party
and especially those that had to do
with the minimum wage, the demo-
cratic control of industry, and the
taxation of large incomes to help pay
for the war.
'"The war has brought a great hope
to humanity" said Mr.. Bridge la
boring classes are making demands
for better wages and for shorter hours
and great industrial problem faces
the world. The church must pro-
nounce its Judgment on this situation.
sThe church must uphold four
points: First, conditions must change
Nature makes no necessity for pow
erty. There is plenty in the world
for ALL. 1t is unreasonable that in
this age Of science that people should
starve for. want of food or go. I'M
clothed. -
Second, the church must no longer
be the upholder Of responsibility. The
church must stand for ideals. It
must take up again its old work of
turning the world upside down.
"Third, the church must live up to
the doctrines of the Christ. 1t must
champion the weak Those who make
money from oppressed workers are
themselves as guilty as though they
were actually involved in the oppres-
sion
Fourth, the church must realize
that the emphasis is no longer on
individual salvation, but rather on the
of the world"
The Bolsheviki and the present |
strikes in America were not discussed |
by Mr.. Bridge in detail.

COYOTE PELTS ARE
WORTH MUCH MONEY
PESTS OF NORTHWEST MAY BE
TURNED INTO PROFIT BY
GOOD TRAPPERS

If the. ranchers and sheep growers
had their wish, there would be no
coyotes in. North America The
ranchers and sheep growers think
that the only thing coyotes were made
for is to kill cattle and sheep. This
is a wrong impression. The coyotes
must have some other calling in life
or the good book missed fire" when
it said, Nothing was made in vain"
"My opinion of it, says Mr.. A. B.
Shubert, president of A. B. Shubert
Inc, Chicago, u. S. A., the largest
house in the world dealing exclusively
in American raw furs, "is that the
coyote is here to give up the ghost

who by. the way, makes good use of
the good coyote pelt, but has little
