SOLDIER SETTLEMENT
BOARD IS ORGANIZED

The soldier settlement board, ere
ated by an act of the recent legisla-
tl1re, met here last night and organ
ized, by electing Edwar1 Everett
Young chairman and Leslie A. Gill
lett, secretary. DR., A, d. Grille is
the third member of the board. The
board adopted a number of resolu-
lions preparatory to beginning active
work, but everything is in a state Of
uncertainty until an opinion is re-
ceived from the attorney general as
to whether the act passed. ny the New
Mexico legislature is in harmony with
the federal laws.
Congress gave 100000 acres of
land to the state, the proceeds of
which were to be used for the con-
struction of reservoirs in New Mex
leo. The New Mexico act creating
the board and prescribing its duties
covers a far wider scope than the
federal act, it is said For this rea-
son the board, desiring to have the
status of the matter cleared up be-
fore proceeding, requested an opn-
ion from the attorney general.

So VERDICT WON
BY FIELD AGAINST
THE CAS- COMP ANY
Court Holds That Minimum
Charge Can't Be Made If No
Gas Is Used; Said Both Sides
viii Ask for New Trial.

The Gas and Electric company has
no right under its franchise to make
n minimum charge for gas against a
consumer If he has not used any gas,
District Judge Hickey held Thursday
in directing the jury in the case
brought by Neil b. Field against the
company to find verdict in favor of
the plaintiff for SO,
Two dollars of the amount recov.
cred by Mr.. Field was minimum
charge of 81 month for two months
and the other dollar was amount
charged by the company for turning
on gas at his home after service had
been discontinued on account of his
failure to- pay the minimum charge
He disputed the company's right to
make the minimum charge on the
ground that he had not used any gas
at all in the two months, but paid UNI
der protest and began the suit.
Another of the company's practices
was attacked by Mr.. Field, question
ing its right to require deposit of IS
to insure the payment of bills. He
asked also for the return of his de-
post and for $500 punitive damages,
but the court refused to include them
in the verdict which he directed.
1t was said that both the company
and Mr.. Field would file motions ask
ing the court for a new trial of the
case.
The courts decision that the COM
pany must repay the 81 charged for
restoring the gas service applies only
to cases in which the charge is wrong
fully made, the court believing that
the company'S act in depriVing Mr..
Field of gas to be without right in
view of the fact. in his view, that the
franchise did not give it power to
make the minimum charge in his
case.

RATE IS GRANTED
FOR GARDENERS
Charge viii Be Is Cents Per
1000 Gallons for Water
Used in Excess Of Establish
ed Minimum Now in Effect,

Gardeners will get a special water
rate from May 20 to August 20, the
commissioners announced last night,
provided they comply with the city's
regulations. The rate Is Is cents per
l 900 gallons, ito apply only for
water used in excess of the present
established minimum charge"
The minimum charge-which is
81 S0-will be maintained, it was eX-
planned, to guard against abuses. The
commissioners were informed that
consumers, taking advantage of the
lowered water rate in the past. had
used 15-cent water not solely for
gardening but for watering lawns and
other purposes for which the rate
was not intended to apply.
AS a further protection against
abuse it was announced that the city
reserved the right to reject any APP
plication for the special rate which in
the opinion of the officials was not
made in good faith and strictly for
garden purposes.
The rate is for only vegetable gar
dens and they must include 300
square feet Also they must be sue
cessful. and inspections will be made
to see that they are.

would interfere with traffic as that

commissioners, however, deferred ac-
ton to give residents of that neigh
borhood a chance to state their views.

THE OLD PEsTILENCE

General Pershing not so many years
ago meditated retiring from the army
because ''there would not be another
war for q hundred years and soldering
offers no career for a man." That idea
was cOddled by enormous numbers OF
Americans. It was held up to the
very moment that war was forced up
on rs in 1917. Colonel Roosevelt and
Mai. Gen. Leonard Wood were held
up to scorn as cranks by those who
could not see the possibility Of our
EOing to war nor the necessity for
preaching preparedness.
But we had to 60 TO war, and bitter,
indeed, is the knowledge which we
now have that we paid for our lack Of
preparedness needlessly heavy price
In American lives. Up to the time Of
his death, Colonel Roosevelt preached
preparedness, despite the fact that the
great war had been won by US. Still
there were scOffers.
General Wood today is urging as
earnestly as ever he did a system Of
universal training for national de-
fense Do we hear "pOoh pOChs" in
response to his references to the @next
war?" unhappily we do. Some peO-
pie learn very slowly or do not learn
at al. Yet there can be no success
ful denial Of the following deliverance
Of Gensral Wood before the Kansas
Legislature at Topeka:
"The prediction that there will be
no more wars is as old as time, but
war Is like q pestilence. It comes
unawares and the most democratic
method for nation like ours is to be
prepared"

STATE CEMETERY
FOR THE DEAD
Bodies of Soldiers Left in France
to Be Brought to This
Country if Relatives
Desire

Bodies of American soldiers who
died in France will be returned to this
country upon request of relatives.
This was the definite announcement
received Friday by Senator Arthur
Capper from Col. Robert E. Wyllie
of the general staff of the war depart
ment.
Senator Capper had written in re-
gard to the return of the bodies Of
Kansas soldiers, following the decis-
ion that state cemetery should be
established in honor of the Kansans
who made the supreme sacrifice.
Arrange for Site Now
With this assurance, Governor Al
len intends to go ahead with the plan
originally suggested by State Sen.
Francis C. Price to have a state ceme-
terry. A commission is to be named
for the purpose Of locating the ceme-
terry. Because of the time necessary
to bring the bodies from France and
to make necessary preliminary ar
rangements, it is probable that there
will be sufficient time to secure a
suitable donated site, and to have leg
islative appropriations to fit the ceme-
terry properly. However, if necessary,
Senator capper, Governor Allen,
Lieutenant Governor Huffman, Sena-
tor Price and others are willing to f.
nance the state cemetery and ask re-
imbursement from the legislature.
A Cemetery in France
The letter from the war department
states that France has offered a plot
of ground for an American ''Field Of
Honor" cemetery in France which
would be cared for as national ceme-
teries are in the United States.
"The war department is sending a
letter to the nearest of kin to every
soldier who was killed or who has
died in France" the letter continues,
calling attention to the proposed
Field Of Honor and requesting a
statement from the nearest Of kin in
each case as to whether It is desired
that the body should remain in France
or be returned to the United States.
"The war department is prepared
to bring back to the United States all
bodies, which the nearest of kin de-
sire brought back, and to deliver
these bodies to the nearest of kin in
each case at government expense. An
answer to the war departments let
ter stating a desire 70 that effect, Is
all that Is necessary TO insure the re-
turn Of the body 70 the United States.
