REPUBLICANS GIVE THOUGHT
TO NEED OF EX SERVICE MEN
Expect Early Consideration of Sugges-

Expect Early Consideration of Sugges-
tions Made By American Legion
The Republican leaders in Congress
are giving thought to the legislative
suggestions adopted at the recent con-
vention of the American Legion, and
expect to be able to proceed with
formal consideration of the various
questions involved early in the reg
ular session which begins on Deem
Der l.
Perhaps the first soldier legislation
to be taken up at the Forthcoming
session will be measure to give re-
turned soldiers preference in filling
civil service positions in the Govern
ment. Such step was urged by the
convention and subcommittee of the
House Committee on Reform in the
Civil service already has in hand a
number of bills on this subject. Chair
man Lehlbach, of New Jersey, said
today that this subcommittee would
shortly draft a new bill containing
the best features of the measures al
ready introduced and bring it before
the House in December.
The proposed soldier settlement
plan, which provides farms for all ex-
service men, the bonus question, and
the proposed system of loans for SOL
diers desiring to buy city homes, will
all be brought up, and extensive hear
ings will be given to the Legislative
Committee of the American Legion
which has been named to present to
| Congress the views of the Legion on
all questions affecting the soldiers.
Each of these plans have been advo-
Gated during the special session by
number of members, but the sugges-
ton of Representative Williams, Re-
publican, of Illinois, that the three
propositions should be combined in
one measure has met with wide ap.
proval among soldier organizations,
and among members of Congress.
Mr. Williams has taken the position
that the returned soldiers, if he IA
vors recognition for his services from
the Government, should be able to
choose the particular benefit he de-
sires, and has introduced a resolution
to that effect He points out that
many soldiers are opposed to the bon
US plan, but would be glad to get
home under federal auspices. Other
soldiers, he believes, favor neither
the bonus nor the soldier sediment
plan, but would appreciate federal
aid in securing a home in the city
where they have found employment.
In view of this division of this opinion
as to the proper benefits to be accord
ed the soldiers Mr. Williams favors
legislation which will permit the in
dividual soldier to choose between the
three propositions.

MRS. MARGARET E. HARVEY

Mrs. Margaret E. Harvey, wife of
Henry B. Harvey, of Pleasant Valley,
near Mountain Lake Park, was born
May 81, 1881, and passed to the bet
ter world Tuesday, Nov. IL, 1919, at
about eight o'clock in the evening,
aged SO years, 5 months and Is days.
She had been i'll for about seven weeks
nearly two weeks of that time being
confined to her bed. 1t was a merci-
full Providence that prevented any suf-
fering during all her illness. On the
night of November 9th she was taken
to Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore
Upon attempting an operation the
surgeon discovered conditions that
precluded the completion of his work
and which proved that nothing could
be done to save the life of the patient
which could not possibly have been
prolonged more than a few DAYS if
no operation had been attempted. Mr.
Harvey returned with the remains on
Thursday morning and funeral ser
vices were held at the home on Fri
day at 1890 a. M, and at Oak Grove
church in the afternoon at 2 o'clock in
charge of her pastor, Rev. C. f. Bis
sell. assisted by the Rev. D. B. Orr
pastor of the Oak Grove church. where
most of the relatives hold their men,
bership. Interment was in the Oak
Grove cemetery. At the age of ID she
was converted and united with the
Methodist Episcopal church. From
that time she was an earnest and
faithful worker in the church and the
Sunday school. The respect and es-
TEEN in which she was held by the
people Of the community and the svm-
pathy they feel for those who have
suffered so great loss, have been
aoundantly expressed in kindly words
and deeds. The husband, with her
mother, Mrs. Christina Harvey. and
two brothers, Elliott C. and George
W., survive tozpourn their great loss.

THE TREATY BEATEN BUT THE
CONSTITUTION LIVES.

President Wilson's self-determined
covenant has been beaten, and beaten
for time and eternity, for reasons that
are plain and sufficient. Briefly stat
ed, the principal reasons are these:
First, because it has been from the
beginning an impossible if not an in
conceivable thing that the American
people thro their constitutional rep
resentatives in the United States Sen
ate, should vote. at least with their
eyes open, for the merging of any part
of their sovereignty in a system of
foreign control, or for the surrender
in. any degree of that independence of
action which was bequeathed to them
by the heroes and statesmenwh made
America free; the far seeing old wor-
thies who shaped the course of the
Republics prosperity and greatness.
Secondly, because the arrogant, OBJ
stinate pride of opinion which at
tempted, in the guise of service to hu-
mainly in general, to bring about
this previously undreamed of revo-
luton in Americas traditional poll
cies was attempting at the same time
to reconstruct the very framework
of the American system of distrib-
uted powers; that is, to concentrate
in the Executive the functions and
decisions entrusted by the Constitu-
ton to the Legislature, the Judiciary
and the people themselves; to sub
stitute individual will for representa-
tive determination; to erect an au-
tocracy in the false name of democ-
racy; to establish a virtual dictator
ship in republic which hates the
word.
These have been the overshad-
owing issues during the long contest.
We are bound to say that the defeat
OF autocratic government equals, if it
does not surpass in Importance to the
future of our country, the defeat of
the project of ENHANCEMENT. And in
comparison with these two supreme
results of the victory achieved by the
patriots of both parties in the United
States Senate all other considerations
became for the moment negligible.
1t has been the privileges as it was
the duty Of The Republican to help
with all its heart and elbow power to
propel into the consciousness of its
readers the real significance of that
which the interviewer peace treaty and
League covenant proposed. 1t has
been gratifying in the extreme to OBJ
serve, during more months than we
care to count, the gradual opening
of eyes, the progressive comprehen-
sion of meaning, the constantly
strengthening resolution to resist. We
have now no fear of a resumption in
any dangerous form at a future time
by any parliamentary process what
ever of unsuccessful enterprise. If
the attempt is made an enlightened
people will know how to dispose of it.
Thank God this theaty is dead and
we are still free independent nation.
