Tribe Which Was Ones Known -
Worst In Country etIiI Rsfusss y
Take Up Rsai Farming.

OF all the wards Of Uncle Sam,
none enjoyed worse reputation nor .
better deserved one. than the Apache
Indians Of the Southwest 30 years ago.
They terrorized the Aexicans, robbed
the wagon trains In the Santa Fe trail.
made the frontiepsman's life miserable.
caused the patient troopers Of the reg
ular army to plod and struggle over
countless miles of hot sand and blue
lava ON their trail. and a. soon ~ they
were fairly beaten and settled down
they broke out in new place. Today
their country II given over to the
farmer and the filvver. and what re-
mains Of the tribe occupies q spacious
reservation in northwestern New Mex.
leo. says the Buffalo News.
The reservation II spacious, because
the Apache needs plenty Of room. Il
contains little besides space, because
that u the kind Of land that suits him;
and. luckily for him. has little attrac-
ton for anybody else. The Apache's
Idea Of Q small one-man homestead
would run anywhere from Q thousand
acres up. He does not 60 In for In
tensive cultivation. He plants little
:orn here and there. and he harvests
Wild hay wherever 1t chances to grow
thickly enough to make the process
worth while, but real farming Il In
compatible with his idea Of the dignity
Of q man and an Indian.
The boundaries of the reservation
are not visible to the naked eye. 30
that II you chance to be travelling in
the neighborhood you may easily stray
over the Apache's hearth and home
without finding 1t out. The owner.
however. will inform you Of the fact
with great vigor. II he chances to ind
you. On the other hand. you may travel
On Apache land for weeks and never
meet q soul. The reservation comprises
hundreds Of square miles. and the In
dams are true nomads, wandering
from place to place a. the fancy
sei1es.
The reservation IL q land Of rolling
hills, With q few stubby mountain
ranges, and . share Of barren plain.
Most Of the country Is fertile enough.
especially the hill land. but the Indian
makes no attempt to realize on Its fer
tility. At least. he IL doing nothing to
exhaust the soil. and should his race

an. atfd -
Perhaps no better argument against the
government ownership Of railroads is to
be found than the existing needs ,of, the
railroad administration as expressed in,
an estfh9ate prepared BY Director General
Hines. Regardless Of the disposition of
the railroad problems, it is estimated that
the railroads mist have $3.50, 5000
from the government. The political pos
sibilities Of the perpetuation Of this sys-
tenn are staggering and constitute mem
ace 10 ire future Of the nation. she oyo
1t has been pretty well established that
William G., McAdo6,o who is admittedly
the author of the policies to be pursed by
the hew director general, is determined
upon fastening government ownership on
the United States as d permanent policy
despite the fact that he affects indiffer-i
ence. His first efforts were directed to-
ward making the time Of federal control
indefinite. ao Failing in this he has since
endeaveored to extend the period specifi-
ed in the original bill. l s,.. q. -s ~
Hisfexcuse has been that he desired to
seeothe railroad problem kept out OF poll
tics, although his policies would indicate
a desire a to- get ito inorrWhen President
Wilon submitted the railroad problem to
Congress he said he had no solution to Of
fer. Despite this fact, Mr.. McAdoo some
eight days later offered Congress the com
plete solution, declaring that his RECON-
mendations had the sanction of President
Wilson. We have since seen the adnlinisri
tration officials endeayoring to club,
Congress into ,hasty railroad legislation
the. threat that immediate returns to prl-
ate management, would be, necessary url-s
less an Immediate solution OF the difficult
ties, was reached ,or7o ssM ms1selai b
Following one year of federal operation
during which time he had the advice and
council Of the best railroad men IN the
country President Wilson admitted he,
had reached no definite conclusion. New
erthe less, it would seem that he, would
insist that Congress solve the problem IN
few days, declaring that it would be nee
esary to return the roads before the time
fixed by law unless this solution was
reacted. The latter demand would indi-
cate that the President had some legis-
lation in mind which he dared not sug-
gest. .l.., aa,ai},sg n 81 rM aieap1Qg
The McAdoo recommendation came
within short time, bearing the .indorse-
nlent of President Wilson. The DISPOSE
ton to speed the problem along would
appear as an effort to force upon the
United States the extension of control
proposal by Mr.. McAdoo. AS we reflect
on the jack pot which is to be made by
the people, the political possibilities fail to
convince us that the desire Of Mr.. McAdoo
is to take the railroads out Of politics.

ENGLISH IN THE SCHOOLS

Americanism merely by breathing the air
of these United States. The precautions
against the incubation of influences
foreign to American ideas and American
welfare We're usually absent. -.-,.

OUR FRIEND FOR aFLU'' NURSES.

\, Complaint from numerous graduate

~, The nurses who have spent several
years in, diligent study to prepare them
selves for highly specialized sick room
service SEEM to lie obsessed by a fear that

pay. This does not state the problem.
THE need is not for highly specializer
nurses; or, rather it should be said that
the great increase in demand for sick
room attendance does not contemplate
the graduate NURSE. The graduate nurse
!. always has had more demands upon her
time and intelligence than she could meet.
She is particularly fitted for the care Of
cases requiring considerable degree Of

ERASING THE MONROE DOCTRINE

ERASING THE MONROE DOCTRINE
In spite of the protests voiced in the
United States senate, the suggestion that
the Monroe Doctrine is declining in virtue
seems to have gained considerable cur
rency. And this decline of the most en-
phatic of American declarations appears
to be founded on the ideas of what the
league of nations proposes to achieve. qsa
If the league of nations exercises be-
nign pateralism over the affairs of the
whole world and of the specific activities
of all peoples, there is no longer any need
for the Monroe doctrine 1t is hardly wor-
tn Mr.. Wilson while to tell us that our
Monroe doctrine is safe while at the same
time he industriously is recommending
with the utmost warmth an enterprise
which appears to be nothing more than
an absorbent extension of the same prin-
ciple.
Indeed, Mr.. Wilson seems to have been
so successful in his mission that he al
ready has made one disciple in the per-
son of Garcia Aranha, Brazilian diplo-
mtist, who is so profoundly converted to
the league of nations that he completely
deserts the Monroe doctrine and is totally
be-leagued.
"The Monroe doctrine" says he "is
swallowed up in the new league. Besides

perhaps felt that the study of English did
not furnish that degree of mental discip-.
line which accompanies the acquisition Of
naforeign Language, but that fact remains
that many pupils left the elementary
grades without learning the elementary
principles of our language. III
The greatest harm done, Mr.. insult
points out, by allowing the children of
foreign born parents to acquire their
education in their native tongue. II they
are to grow, up to become good American
citizens they must learn our language;
: they must learn to think in this language
and rsgardIit i1stinctively AS their prim-
arymedium of speech. We cannot hope
stogteach these children Araericafiism N
the German Language, or the French
language, or any other foreign medium.
The proposal Of the State Council of
Defense to have the legislature pass
/ law prohibiting the teaching Of foreign
languages in the grade schools should
have the support of all who are anxious
to- promote A1nericanism in this state.
For those students who wish to acquire
foreign languages for professional; COM
hfnercial, or cultural purposes, the high
school affords anopportunity sufficiently
early in their educational career. But
during the elementary grades they cannot
do better than to study the language for
which they will have the greatest use
throughout their lives. NJ. dr. y

Titled American
Millionaire Taxed
More Than Income
Man Believed To Be Nis.
count Astor Pays Heavy
lmpost in Great Britain
and i'll the United States

LONDON, April 8 (Correspondence of
Inc Associated Press) That a man
should pay more money for income tax
than the total Of his income seems the
limit OF taxation. This is said to be
the plight of q well-known British peer
who was born an American and became
naturalized in England some years ago.
Ills property is in the United States.
Being British subject, he is compelled
by British law to pay income tax on
all his revenues from all sources, and
the American law compels payment of
income tax on all his income from
American property. Being & multi
millionaire, his income is subject to
heavy supertaxes by both governments,
and the two taxes are said to amount
to more than 100 per cent of the in
come.
Thus the unfortunate nobleman must
pay out all of his receipts and dip into
his capital to defray current taxes, and,
after defraying this first charge, use
more of the capital for living expenses.
1he double income tax Of the war
period has hit hard well-to-d do Ameri-
cans who live in Great Britain. In
former days few of the large colony of
American business men living in Brit
ain gave up their American citizenship.
But many of them have found this
draft on their patriotism too heavy and
have reluctantly changed their allie
glance and taken out naturalization
papers.
AS for those Americans who lived
here because they found the social at
mospherc of England more congenial.
anc the scope for spending money on
pleasures greater than at home, most Of
them seem to have disappeared.
Niscount Astor, formerly William
Waldorf Astor, the American million
aire eNpatriate, who has lived in Eng
land for years, owns moro realty in
New York City than perhaps any other
American.
Viscount Astor's income from his
fathers estate here is estimated at
$4,000 900 annually. New York state
and city taxes on this share are fixed
at about $l,60000O, United States in
come and surtaXes at S1,20O,OO and
the British income tax at 81 500 900, or
a total of about S4,400,OO0 a year, a
larger sum than the viscount's income.
In addition to his share of the es-
tate, Niscount Astor owns separately
many pieces of property in New York
City, the income from which is sub
Ject to the same double taxation.

because it is free from sectarian bias
and expressing the hope that the or

S13,ooo,000, needed to carry on its work
during the coming year, Cardinal Glib
bons wrote yesterday to former Gov
ernor Whitman indorsing the organi

of the National Committee of the Home
Service Fund of the Salvation Army
made public last night the letter. which
is as follows:
Il have been asked by the local
commander of the Salvation Army TO
address word to you as the national
chairman of the campaign about to be
launched in behalf of the organization.
This am happy to do, and for the rea
son that along with my fellow Ameri-
can citizens | rejoice in the splendid
service which the Salvation Army rem
dered our troops during the war. Every
returning soldier is q willing witness
to the efficient and generous work of
the Salvation Army, both at the front
ana III lhe camps at home. | also am
more happy to commend this organiza-
tion because it is free from sectarian
bias. The man in need of help is the
object of their effort, with never
question of his creed or color.
trust, therefore, your efforts to
raise Sl3,000,000 for the Salvation
Army will meet with a hearty response
from our generous American public"
The dr,No for the fund begins Of
