FEW AMERICAN DEAD
ARE UNIDENTIFIED

New York, July 29.-Less than one
half of l per cent of the American
soldiers who died on the battlefields
of France were buried unidentified,
according to Colonel ]. S. Heron of
Cincinnati, commander of the $4,000
troops who inferred the fallen Amer
leans and who returned here Monday.
The men under Colonel Herron's COM
mand removed the dead from the
temporary graves and laid them to
rest in large concentration cemeter-
les.
Each cemetery is surrounded by a
painted fence and the grass on the
graves is kept green and cared for by
a detachment Of soldiers left on duty
as caretakers. The largest grave
yard is at Romagne, where lie $4,000
Americans who died in the Argonne
and Mouse sectors, and the next larg-
est is at Thiacourt, where 1890 SOL
diers who fought at St. Mihiel and
Toul are buried.
I'VE did our work." said Colonel
Heron, Gin accordance with the ex-
pressed wishes of the men of the A.
E. F. The remark most frequently
heard when the business of getting
killed was spoken of, was the hope
that if the fellow talking got it, he
would be buried with the others of
his regiment or division who also fell,
and close to the battlefield or on it,"
The ACCESSIBILITY of bringing the
A merican dead back from France
vas questioned by Baron D'Estourn-
Giles De CONSTANT, member of the
French senate, who sailed for France
after a brief visit to this country.
Baron De Constant said:
81 would say wait We Frence
have a great respect for the dead and
there is not a French mother or IA
Their who does not look upon the Amer
lean dead in France as their own sons
and their graves will be so honored.
In this time of confusion it would not
be wise to attempt to remove the
dead. There would be terrible mis-
takes made. In any event it is wiser
to wait until times are more settled.

Whereas, a vast amount OF pub

BIG WHEAT SURPLUS is
HELD BY GRAIN BOARD

Washington, D. C.-In order to get
at the source Of some of the high
cost of living, Representative Roscoe
McCulloch of Ohio, has written a let
ter to Julius H. Barnes, United States
wheat director in New York, in which
he charges that the government is
maintaining a monopoly in the sale of
wheat and has wrung out of the pub
lie a surplus of 5000, 900. He says:
II am opposed to the government
creating a monopoly in wheat and
selling it at a profit. The people are
now ove%rburdened with the high cost
of living, and for the government to
exact a profit on the sale of foodstuffs
seems to me to be little short of an
outrage.
ut appears that the grain corpo-
ration has earned $23, 1888 and that
you are carrying this amount forward
as an earned surplus. It is apparent
that this amount was earned over and
above the expenses of operating your
corporation and after you had paid
all your expenses, which must have
been very heavy.
IL am writing now to secure a full
and complete statement of just how
and from what source this $23, OO0, 900,
together with your operating expenses,
were earned. In a recent letter to me
you say that 'in reselling wheat we
had just one price-the guaranteed
price, plus ID cents per bushel.' In
addition to statements l have request
ed, l would thank you to furnish me
the reselling price of wheat as deter
mined by your corporation for all the
months during which you rave admin
istered the law and fixed the resale
price.
Gin view of the strained conditions
throughout the country, which, so far
as the cost of living goes, have reach
ed almost the breaking point, l ask
for information, if you can furnish
it, which will justify the government
agency taking out of the pockets Of
the consumers of bread a net surplue
Of $~13,763,320. This profit must come
out of the pockets of the consumers,
and the producers do not get it. At
the time the bill to make good the
guarantee on wheat was being con-
sidered by the house I contended that
the loss, if any, which would result
from the guaranteed price being great
err than the market price should be
paid out of the treasury of the Unit
ed States and not added to the price
of wheat, thus increasing the cost of
living to the consumer. I do not be-
lieve that congress ever intended, in
granting the authority contained in
the wheat guarantee bill, that it should
be used in the way your corporation
has been handling it."

BODY OF ONLY ONE
SOLDIER is RETURNED

Washington, July 28.-As far as war
department records show, the body of
only one deceased member of the A.
E. F.-that of Lieutenant W. G. Har-
ris, son of Brigadier General Geo. H.
Harris-has been returned from
France to the United States. This
was received today through publica-
ton of a report submitted to a house
war Investigating committee by Ma
jor General G. w. Burr, assistant chief
of staff.
The report was in answer to inquir-
les made of General March, chief of
staff, when he was before the commit
tee last week. At that time the chief
of staff said the return of bodies
would be "violation of the information
al agreement with France" and "whol-
ly wrong"
Eight other bodies than that of
Lieutenant Harris, who died in a base
hospital at Brest of injuries in an au-
tomobile accident, have been return
ed from abroad. The report showed,
however, that none of the eight ex-
ceptions died in France, excepting
Major Frederick A. Mahan, retired,
military attache at Paris. His body
was returned "without reference to
the military authorities so far as
known"

DIGGING THE FARMERS GRAVE.

critics under common ownership, OF
practical socialism.
If it can be done successfully anc
for the benefit of the farmers as q
class, the object lesson will exert a
tremendous influence.
Private ownership of private prop
erty in the form of land will next
be attacked by the same socialist lead
ership.
A man without capital cannot GO
upon land, apply his labor and claim
the product.
He must pay rent to the capitalist
who in orth Dakota is one of the 49,
600 land owners.
Or he must sell his labor to this
capitalist class of land wners.
The $4,000 land owners now say pri-
vate ownership of big business is not
best for the community.
The mar without land or capital will
next say, private ownership of land
is not best for the community.
Socialism, based on class hatred
and animosity, will not stop with it's
present North Dakota program.
There is no other line of Big Bus
mess so profitable and open to attack
as land in private ownership.
The socialist leaders are getting the
farmers to dig their own graves by
educating them on lines Of common
ownership.

FEDERAL JUDGE PERMITS
SALE OF 2.75 P. C. BEER

San Francisco, July 2s.-sale of
beer containing two and three-quar.
tiers percent alcohol was permitted
in a decision by Judge William H. Saw
telle of Arizona in the United States
district court here today sustaining
a demurrer of the Rainier Brewing
company which asked that a govern
ment action to prohibit the sale of
such beer be dismissed.
Judge Sawtelle ruled the complaint
was faulty in that it did not define
2 3-4 per cent beer as Intoxicating
Leave to amend the complaint was
granted.
The action was brought under the
wartime prohibition act, which Judge
Sawtelle held to be constitutional.

A REFLECTION.

Our chamber of will be
what we make it-no more or no less.
1t will do the things that we determ-
inc it shall do-no more or no less.
A community organization always re-
fleets the spirit and attitude of the
community. The chamber of COM
merce is made up of individuals. What
the individual members agree upon is
what the club will do. The CONNER
cial organization will stand for what
it's members make it stand for. The
things that are accomplished by a
chamber of m are not done
in some mysterious way, but are done
in the most matter of fact by
the individuals who compose the or
ganization.
The spirit of the community is COM
posed of the hearts and minds of the
people who live in that community.
1t is no better than the best of them
and can be no worse than the worst
of them. If we put the best there is
in US into our community organiza-
ton it will reflect the highest and
best that the community car produce.
In other words, the chamber of COM
merce is the mirror that reflects to
the world at large and to ourselves
the kind Of people that we are. We
should not, then, look upon Jul CON-
mercial organization as a thing apart
from us, but rather a thing of us and
by us, a true reflection Of the citizen
ship, intelligence and civic pride of
the community.
