A Regular Asks for Justice

To fhe Editor Of the Epen'ng Publc L d6er; ;
Sir-And now came our venerable SEN
ators and Representatives with bill reeking
with injustice.
The bill in question is one passed under the
provision of Section of the act entitled.
IAN Act to Authorize the President to In
crease Temporarily the Military Establish
ment of the United States" and Is IN eHect
as follows: All officers and enlisted men OF
the military or naval forces of the United
States. who have been appointed enlisted or
indicted into the service of the United states
subsequent to April 6, 1917 and on or prior
to November II, 1918, are to receive bonus
of $50 upon their honorable discharge from
said service.
This magnificent and benevolent act of
Congress is, no doubt, an answer to the ap-
neal OF the citizens of the United States, who
have been agitating o bonus ever since war
has ceased, which agitation has been Just
one. But. my dear readers, did the citizens
of the United States mean to utterly dlsre-
gard ignore and scorn the service of the
regular who enlisted prior to April 6. 1917?
Am l to understand that the regulars who
were the backbone of our forces in France,
the men of the Fifth and Sixth Regiments OF
Marines at Chateau-Thierry, together with
the old-timers of the army VINO saved Paris,
the old-tmers who have done Uncle Sans
dirty work in Haiti and Santo Domingo, men
who have hiked miles and miles through the
burning sands of Mexico, men who have
knelt beside stagnent pools of water in the
Philippine Islands to moisten their parched
throats am / to understand that these men
are to be treated like dogs at this time when
Congress is handing out congressional
medals? ask you in all squareness and all
fairness is this not in direct contravention
to our constitutional law, which provided
that there shall be no class legislation?
And you ask what causes Bolshevism!
But no; the regular of the United States

In the female parts the chief honors natu-

well done, as to endanger the solemnity of

there is little modern music which can COM

history. of the opera does not show many
works in which the music carries out with
such complete fidelity the emotional content
of the libretto.
Among the best numbers of last evenings
performance were the love duet in the first
act between Rodolfo and Mimi mi chia-
mano Mimi" closing with Rodofo's out
burst, 20 SoaVe fanciula" the waltz of
Musetta in the second act, one of the chief
melodies of the opera, which recurs con-

pathetic duet between Rodolfo and Mimi in
the last act "Sono audati? Fingeos di DOR
