Bonus for United States
Rubber Company Employees

AS a holiday remembrance, the
United States Rubber company gave
to all salaried officers and employees
10 per cent on their yearly salaries.
This news came to the Omaha
branch of this company in the form
of a telegram from New York on
December %. The necessary prep
arations were made and by noon
of the oath everything was ready
for the distribution of the bonus.
AS the employees were leaving for
lunch they were told to go through
the office of T. ]. Needham, the
manager, who presented the checks
to each individual with a personal
word of thanks for their co-opera-
ton during the past year and good

vorite arguments at their finger tips.
They bring them to school. and en-
deavor thereby to impress them up
on all with whom they come in con-
tact. 1t so happened that Miss
Bentley's friend had a class full of
the socialistically precocious chill
dren. Any argument she used to
show them they were wrong was
upset by their answers or questions.
1t got to the stage where the teach
er was beaten on every tack she
took and her position sin that school
was becoming unbearable. She was
about to apply for transfer to a
school in another section of the city
when letter from Miss Bentley
advised her Of the, poison cures /
poison" method. Her advice was to
fight the children, not by word Of
mouth, but by action, using the equa-
lization argument against itself.
Miss Bentley had heard her friend
tell of the eagerness with which
these children strove for high marks
in their monthly tests. That was
their goal and any means and meth
DDS were used by them to attain the
coveted 100 per cent The test ques-
tons were given. On correcting
the papers the teacher found that
four OF the children had received
100 per cent, ten 90 per cent, eight
had IS per cent, sixteen 60 per cent,
ten had 50 per cent, and using Miss
Bentley's method of marking their
papers, she equalized the marks. All
the children, irrespective of their
mental attainments and the results
of their work received 20 per cent.
The effect was electric. Twenty
two children who were bright and
who had always led the arguments
of social equalization now led in the
widest squawk ever heard; and the
parents joined them. =.
1T is wrongl 1t is wrongP they
yelled.
The teacher advised them she was
simply following the teachings of
socialism, pointing to the fact that
only % were suffering while 26 were
benefited. The poor in mind were
the equal to the bright ones. 1t
stung them hard and the yelps of
socialism have died a peaceful death
in that room.
Miss Bentley argues that methods
of that kind, discreetly applied to
socialism, bolshevism, etc, will do
more good than laws or guns.
incidentally She asks what all the
followers of Emma Goldman and AL
exander Berkman think of both per-
sonages arriving at Ellis island at

y OVERNOR ROBERTSONS call for a
~ meeting at the state capitol Of all county
attorneys in Oklahoma, to consider ways and
means for reducing the high cost of living VIII
meet with the hearty appreciation of every CIT
iZen except the comparatively few whose prot
iteering methods may be undermined through
the efforts of the conference.
Next Friday should be an important day in
the history of Oklahoma. Just what the gov
ernor and the county attorneys may be able
to accomplish is of course, but con iectural at
present 1t is the sincere hope Of the great
body of people in this state that something
definite and effective may be done, to the end
that the present exorbitant prices Of all neces-
sary commodities may be cut and the day-to-
day increase in the prices of many of these
necessaries may be checked.
That there is a great deal of proTiteering in
retail lines is believed by the majority Of con
sumers, and this belief appears to be justified.
There is abroad suspicion to state it moder
ately that there are in some of the cities of
Oklahoma-not to say in all of the cities-com-
binations of dealers in certain articles of neces-
sary family diet or apparel, and that such
combinations keep the prices up and continue
to advance them. If the governors conference
with county attorneys serves to throw light
upon this suspicion, well and good then pos
sby some sort of legal action may be taken to
upset the situation and improve conditions.
Profiteerng in foods and clothing, not to
mention other important commodities. is upon
the same moral Cor unmoraD plane as pri-
watering at sea. Both piratcal activities.
Under international law pirates can be hanged.
Just what we are to do with profiteers is to be
determined by the executive and judicial
authorities. Probably we cannot hang them
legally, and assuredy we should not give them
Judge Lynch sentences; but most assuredly
some form Of punishment should be meted out
to them as deterrent.
We shall watch with intimate interest the
proceedings of the governors conference at
Oklahoma City and the subsequent proceed
ings.
