 A. BURROWS.
 Brooklyn, September 16.
 Posts of ticket agents and choppers appear to be satisfactorily filled by women. We see no reason why they should quit these jobs until ~they are snarcd with a golden hoop and ap- pointed general managers of house. holds.
 On the other hand, we see reasons why a returned soldier unless he be crippled, should avoid trying to be a ticket agent or a ticket chopper. These are sedenta1y occupations which neither pay the highest wages nor lead to great things.
 Why should a young and vigorous man try to attach himself to the job of chopping tickets? It requires neither intellect, brawn nor capital A man cannot chop tickets any better at the end of ten years than he can at the end of ten days.
 Chopping tickets is logically good work for woman, not because 1t calls for little ability, but because she can pass at any time from that en- ., sphere without causing a ripple on the waters of industry. She does not harm herself by taking such a post assuming that she does not intend to work at it all her life.
 But a man who takes a place re- Quiring no exercise of mind or body is signing a warrant for the decapita- ton of his future.

Supervision of Athletics.
CWaterbury Republican)

The request Of Marshall Singlet on that the board of education reimburse him for the medical expenses he in cured as result of breaking his leg while playing With the Crosby High school team has set the board to con- sidering the advisability of closer supervision of school social and recre- ational activities. Ii appears that now the only supervision that the school authorities exercise over the High school athletics is to require that pupils taking part in them be up to the standard in their studies. The High School Athletic association re- quires that a pupil should pass a phN- sical examination and have his parents consent before taking up athletics.
 It seems desira ble that there should be closer liaison, as they say in the Army, between the H gh School Ath- letic associa tion and the school board. Some other cities require that mem bers of the faculty shall be mem bers of the High School Athletic associd- ton and shall exercise supervision of the games. It is hardly to, be expect

 There, then, is a digest of some of the questions on the League that have been asked. The answers to them we believe, are honest expressions of what the President actually believes. We cannot conceive of his being the traitor that would call for his making these statements, knowing the truth to be otherwise, and We are satisfied that he is honest in his desire, and capable, mentally, of reading a docu- ment with some degree of intell- gence. We are well pleased that be has evidently adopted a policy which will call for no more bitter remarks about his adversaries and suggest that they follow suit in this matter

Women as Ticket Choppers.
(NeW York Sun)

A correspondent who evidently believes that women should give ul the jobs they took in war time, pre- sents a specific case, as follows:

Will Immi grafton Increase or Decrease?

To the Editor Of the Euenin1 Public Ledger.
Sir--It is really hard task to determine.
at this time, whether (when the world peace
Will be signed) immigration will be increased
or Will come to an end in this country.
In fact opinions are divided on this sub
ject. and both sides have strong arguments
to back up their assertions. Some contend
that there are comparatively few e-bodied
men left in Europe, and such amount of
work TO be done in rebuilding all that which
was destroyed during the conflict that not
only all people who there will stay at
home. but that even a great many Europeans
who in America will return to their
native countries, where they will find work
and comfort.
The other side however, contends that the
people in Europe are 30 sick and disguised
with conditions there. that misery and want
has reached a point never reached before in
the worlds history, and that the burden Of
taxes will be so heavy that the majority of
the survivors will flee in desperation from
Europe and will gladly come to America,
which they will regard as real haven Of
safety
Although both sides of the question have
their logical points and are quite possible
to come true. still nothing can be assumed
as a certainty yet. In fact, whether the peo-
pie in Europe will like to stay at home or
will emigrate TO this country depends mostly
on the kind OF peace concluded. Ii Is sure,
however, that If the peace be only tempor-
AIRY, while all the nations will start again
on their mad race for preparedness as 1t
was before the people will then not be able
TO bear the terrible burden much longer.
Therefore II can be safely assumed that all
those who will have the opportunity Will
leave their country and will go to an hospi-
table shore-America. If instead of this the
people in Europe will get reputation of
all war debts and complete disarmament
both on land and on sea will prevail, so that
they may devote all their time and energy
TO recuperaton from the severe losses of the
war, Immigration to the United States will
virtually come to an end.

IRVINCTON OPPOSES HEARST
Citizens Want Him Ousted From Soldiers
Welcome Committee

New York. Jan. Ga committee of citi-
zens OF lrvington- on the Hudson. headed by
Miss Isabel x. Benjamin, is circulating a
petition requesting Mayor Ifylan to remove
William Randolph Hearst from the Mayor =
committee of welcome TO returning troops,
Miss BENJAMIN said 400 Irvington residents
had signed the petition.
In letter to the Mayor Miss Benjamin
said Irvington citizens desire to join in the
universal protest" against Mr. Hearst.
I'VE believe the day of our soldiers re-
turn is da arlened and our country dishonored
by the presence of any one on a committee of
welcome whose loyalty can be questioned
she says in the letter
A statement accompanying the petition
states:
"A mans who defended the sinking OF the
LusitanIa has been appointed by the Mayor
of New York TO welcome officially our sol
dIers. The Mayor has made big mistake
Tell him so. a man worthy or post of trust
should be great enough to acknowledge his
mistake. Give Mayor liylan chance to

SAY SOLDIERS WASTE
TRANSPORTATION CASH
Money Spent Seeing East Instead
of Going Home, Authori.
ties Declare

Labor authorities are considering the ad-
visibility OF urging the War Department to
give released soldiers and sailors railroad
tickets rather than money-which Is now
given--to pay transportation TO their homes.
The problem of stranded soldiers and sail
ors is increasing with the rapid demobiliza-
ton Of men At every conference of em-
ployers and managers of the peace-time en-
ploymeut committee the problem has been
introduced.
Eight out of ten men who have applied
for positions here" declared c. X. Stokes,
chairman of the committee for Philadelphia,
"are men who live In the West and who
were demobilized In eastern camps. TheF
were given money enough to pay their trans
portation home, but they decided to see the
East first.
They have been taken pretty good care OF
by Uncle Sam, and SO long as they are IN
uniform they have hunch some kind prori-
dence will continue to be good To them I'LL
they are ready to go to work. When they
have blown in all their money they come TO
the employment service for jobs. \ few OF
them really want to remain iT the East be-
cause they feel Industrial opportunities at
present are greater here. But employers are
just "A little skttsh of them because they
feel the men will stay on the Job only long
enough to earn enough money TO take them
home.
1T presents a variety of problems. First
or all, of course, we Woulu prefer 10 Ndhe
care of our own home boys first, then help
out the others as hest we can. But when
those from foreign States make first appi-
cation and we have jobs open, ii is up to
us to supply demands"
The sixteen welfare organizations cooper
ating with the United States employment
service in obtaining Jobs for returning men
have their representatives in the various
rehabilitation camps, ana they are using
moral suasion to get the men to go directly
to their own homes. II this falls and the
men continue in great numbers to become
stranded in the cities. the labor authorities
will urge a change of rehabilitation plans.
A psychological reason for the general CO.
operation of employers in obtaining Jobs for

STARVATION TOO GOOD
FOR BOCHE, SAYS BOY
Feed Enemy to Save Country for
Inevitable Payment for Out j
RACES, Pupil Writes

starvation Is entirely too good for Ger.
many. according to fourteen. year-od Theo-
dore Seldeman. 562 North Lawrence street,
pupil at the Northern Liberties School.
In an essay entitled Americas Answer to
Starving Europe" he points out that the
famished Teutonic races should be fed ie
for no other reason than to save the country
for its inevitable payment TO outraged
France and Belgium.
The essay follows:
Now that autocracy has been crushed
there remains yet one very important prob.
lem to solve What should we do with starv-
ing Europe? Should we reply to the stirring
appeal Of the stricken. shell-torn countries
Of Europe by sending them cargoes OF food
and clothes, or should we not give TO
their cries?
England and Italy are glad TO get out
with just enough food left It's people until
the next harvest. while France. Belgium,
Greece and Poland and even our enemies.
should be fed, for they are now at the point
of starvation.
Germany and her allies should be helped
so that when they called upon TO face
the consequences and pay for the damage
done to France and Belgium they will be able
to pay. Starvation is too easy punishment
for Germany and her allies.
Yes. we will help. America. the home OF
the brave and the free, with her vast farms.
her army OF farmers. her great shipping
program and the great and noble Red Cross
organizations, will see that humanity wins
against famine and that the countries OF
Europe rise once more to their normal stand
ing among the nations OF the world.
America will not be selfish She will put
her great army of farmers TO work. Ships
will be built. not only to bring back our
gallant boys, but to carry food across the
sea to those who have none.
And our Red Cross In Europe will see
