Nev Kind of Detective Wanted

Most reasonable citizens will agree with At
torney General Palmer that the time has come
for new kind Of detective in the secret service
work of the government. 1t may be said also
that it is high time that our cities realized that
"class" crimes call also for higher order Of
police detectives than is now possessed by most
of them. Bomb outrages are sporadic social
and personal crimes that may we'll BATTLE any
police force or the smartest of detectives, as
detectives are known to most Of our cities to-
day; but "class" crimes that cali for extensive
planning and cooperation the country over
represent an entirely different sort of thing.
them out men who must be endowed with
new kind of training and are familiar with the
ways and the methods of the various anti-social
groups. During the first two years Of the
world war the United States secret service
gained an enviable reputation for the way in
which it got at the official and unofficial Ger
man propaganda and brought even the naughty
attaches of the German embassy to book. 1t
is pity that these men are seemingly not on
the job today. They are sorey needed For
nothing can be more harmful to public morale
than the spectacle of the pomp and circumstance
and the impunity with which the bomb-throwers
and bomb-senders and the printers of treason
for the last six months. So the reorganization
of the secret service of The Department of JUS
tice cannot come too quickly 1t might be we'll

the question Of the efficiency OF United States
district attorneys, since an indifferent United

tect the country against those who would I'M

Church ADVERTISING Pans

When backed by good sermons, attractive
music and proper cordiality on the part of
the church membership, church advertising can
be made to pay its own way financially, and
more. Well handled advertising campaigns
have proved this in numerous communities, de-
clares bulletin from the Associated Advertis-
ing Clubs of the World, which has fostered the
use of advertising in behalf of the church.
Church advertising, however, is like all adver-
Using, says the bulletin The church, to adver-
tise successfully, must shave "the goods" as
truly as this is necessary in the case of mer-
chant. ~
poor goods, the advertising emphasizes the poor
quality, because more people are induced to ex-
anime the goods. They talk about it and,
therefore such advertising cannot pay 1t is
so with the church. The church that advertises

WHY in the Dark?

Omaha, June ITO the Editor
Of The Bee: According to our sem
ator, it would be incompatible to
public interest to publish the terms
of peace and that the German peo-
pie do not know the terms, either.
If this is true, was the war to make
the world safe for democracy won or
lost? According to newspaper re-
ports, the Big mix the medicine
and all the peoples on both sides
are in the dark, and it would
be bad thing for them to
know what the Big 5 are doing.
Then when the senate of the United
States is given no voice in the mat
ter they will find it impossible to
do other than ratify the secret-made
treaty that will make the Big the
masters of the world. If the re-
publican party fails to makes a
stand against this arrangement
there will be a host of us
ex-democrats who voted them
into power very badly fooled. The

would make a fine secret job for

Welcoming Our Boys.


Omaha, June 5.-To the Editor o.
The Bee: It is beautiful Is won.
| derful-it is inspiring when we see
a great nation so united in its de-
termination to honor the return
home Of the splendid boys who sc
nobly on the bloody fields of France
! showed to the world what 1t means
to be an American. These boys de
not return to us the same as the!
were. Those who feturn UNNAMED
are matured, with higher ideals than
when they went away. They have
memories not alone Of those who
died and were manned that Liberty
might survive, but their own suffer
ings have told them the serious side
Of life.
At least I thought I saw, as !
stood on Decoration day, studying
the faces of those boys, something
deeper in their souls than mere
pleasure at returning home. Theirs
was an intensity Of feeling in their
hearts, which I interpreted to be a
declaration that their life's endeavors
shape the action Of America even
more true to the ideals Of liberty;
to see to it that nothing henceforth
shall undermine the foundations of
the temple of liberty for which they
have paid 80 dear price.
Our welcoming spirit may die out.
We are so prone, when engaged in
the strife Of life, to forget the higher
sentiments of the heart. But a
grateful government will not forget.
The government presided over by
one of the noblest men that ever
lived in the tide Of times has already
planned for the rehabilitation Of
those boys who return to civil life
disabled by the ravages Of war. 1t
is taking the disabled boys, quietly
and without ostentation, and if their
disability is such that they cannot
follow Their former employment,
training them for new one, or by
careful advice making them more
efficient in their old employment.
Nor does the government stop
merely at training them for higher
station. The purpose, Of course, in
this is to make it possible for these
boys to live more comfortably than
before by less physical effort.
Teaching them to become more eff
cient in their former employment or
supplying them with training for a
new vocation will enable them to
gain livelihood without the stress
they would otherwise have to I'M
dergo. After training, the govern
ment will see to it that they are
provided with employment, and it
will keep a constant eye upon them,
helping them until they are fully
capable of taking care of them
selves. They shall never be obliged
to become objects Of charity. They
will take their places with other
workmen upon at least an equal
footing. During the period of train
ing, they are paid at least SIS per
month in addition to the cost of
training-supply of tools, books or
apparatus needful for the training.
When the civil war closed, it's vic
Tins were turned loose to shift for
themselves, merely being paid pen
sion. In a sense they became OBJ
jects Of charity, even Of the govern
ment. Today the government rehabil-
itates them, making them self-sus-
tanning, self-respecting, independent
citizens. This is the noblest work
any government ever before under
took in the interest Of the disabled
soldier. L. ]. QUINBY.
