Gety9nq q Job

Much is heard these days of men searching
for employment and finding none. It is some
times difficult to understand how this can be,
in view of the fact that employers all over the
land are searching for competent employees.
The man and the job do not seem to find each
other easily.
Finding a good job is an art one that many
have not mastered. One. needs but make in
quiries to discover that few employers have
a completely satisfactory list of employees.
There are commonplace men holding good
places because employers are unable to find
better men for the job There are excellent men
holding inferior places because they lack the
ability to bring their claims before employers
who have better places to be filled. One city
may have more men than jobs, but the coun-
try, taken as whole, has jobs waiting to be
filled There is employment if the man out of
a job will only, get to the right place.
1t does not follow that man hunting job
is poor employe, although many employers
take that stand. 1t may mean the individual is
we'll equipped but poor hunter when he seeks
a job for himself Some soldiers are able to
walk into fine employment, find it even waiting
for them, while others, equally willing to work,
are forced to hunt and keep on hunting before
they connect with. satisfactory employment

Italy and the Red Program.

The House of Savoy is seriously threatened
in Italy by the socialists, who hope to overturn
the government. 1t does not matter that the
royal family is among the most democratic
in Europe; that the king the crown prince, and
most of the male members of the line took
active part in the war. The wave of anarchy
is rising higher each day, and the late elections
which gave the socialists their greatest repre-
sentation in the Italian parliament, indicate the
dissatisfaction of the masses with conditions.
Industrial as we'll as political affairs in Italy
contribute to this. In fact the one is response
bic for the other The country passed almost
directly from costly war with Turkey into
the world war, having no time to reorganize or
recuperate. Much of the Caporetti disaster
can be traced to this fact, as it was WEAKNESS
of fighting that laid Cadornas soldiers easy
prey to the socialist and clerical tempters,
whose treaehery almost wrecked the campaign
for the Allies. This has simply been continued
into the early time of peace, and promises great
trouble for the government.
D'Annunzios rebellion has been made the
easier because of its appeal to the popular mind
Analysis of the situation is not easy at this dis
lance, but the fact is clear that in none of the
allied countries have the socialists made greater
Roadway than in Italy, where they are pushing
with great energy to establish their control and
set their program into motion.

City as an Employer.

A new definition has been given to the re-
lations between the city and its employees by
the decision of Judge Troup in extending the
provisions OF the workmen's compensation law
to cover policemen who lose their lives in line
of duty. This naturally will include fremen
and all others who work for the city in any
capacity. Careful reflection leads to endorse
ment Of the judges views. 1t is not enough
that relief is provided for the dependents of
policemen from a quasi-public source. The
benefit fund is something quite apart from the
insurance provided for under the compensation
act, just as no account is made of the accident
or other protection carried by workman en-
ployed by private concern. That city en-
p1oyes should be deprived of compensation
under the law for no better reason than be-
cause they are working for the public does not
accord with good morals Within the last few
weeks much has been said to emphasize the
peculiar relations existing between these and
the public. particularly the responsibility po-
licemen and fremen owe the community they
serve. Accepting this as the correct view, it
must be true also that something is due these
men, and the least Of this obligation from the
public to its servants is expressed in the mea-
ger indemnity allowed under the compensation
law. The city's appeal to determine the point
will be watched with care, for if the point is
not upheld in the supreme court, we may be
certain some other way will be looked for to
properly relieve the situation.

Two Questions Answered.

Shelton, Neb,, Nov. 1s.--To Nthe
Editor of The Bee: Two questions
that I would like answered are the
following:
/. What is the name of the ruling
house of England? Queen Victoria
was the last Of the house Of Hano-
yer, ! believe).
2. What is the status Of women
in Nebraska politically-full suf-
frage or partial-ands when will full
suffrage be given them?
Also II you will please give your
authority for the answers TO these
questions. H. A. V.
Answer-Early in the war the
reigning house in England took the
family name Of Windsor, discarding
the former names because Of their
Teutonic origin. This fact was gen.
orally published at the time. being
accomplished by royal proclama-
ton.
Women in Nebraska have a. yet
only part suffrage. They may. un-
der a recent ruling OF the attorney
general, vote for president and vice
president Of the United States, and
then must jump down the ticket to
Offices below those created by the
constitution of the state. The suf-
frage amendment to the federal con-
stitution has not yet been entirely
ratified by the states, and so we can
not tell you when universal suffrage
will go into effect.
Touching On and Appertaining To.

Operators Profits and Miners Wages.

4 The astonishing statement made by the for
mer secretary of the treasury with regard to
the profits of the soft coal operators must have
come as shock to great many. 1t remains
something of shock, because of its generality
DR.. Garfield tells US, and he is correct in this
that any increase in wages now given the
miners must be paid by the public or by the
operators.
Very naturally, the public will agree with
Dr. Garfield that the price of coal is high
enough. Extraordinary profits were permitted
when the government fixed prices on coal, in
order that production might be arti6caly slim
ulated. War conditions no longer control, al
though the demand for coal is but slightly les
sened by reason of that fact Europe, South
America and even Asia are asking for coal from
America, while the domestic requirements are
but slightly curtailed under peace. That these
conditions should be made the basis Of alb
normal profits is unreasonable, though.
1t is not easy to understand the motive of
Mr.. McAdoo in coming forward with his re-
markable statement, no more than are its con-
tents comprehensive without more details To
say that profits have ranged from IS to 1000
per cent is too sweeping statement to permit
formation of conclusive judgment. Between
the two points is so wide range that even the
casual will wish for more specific information.
The statement may be Of service in one way.
While the government is to assume the respon-
sibility for the new wage scale, it has the right
to avail itself Of all avenues of information.
The public is willing that the miners get fair
wages, that the operators recover proper re-
turn on their venture, but it has right to insist
that neither Of these, nor a combination of
them, be permitted to exploit coal consumers
for inordinate gains.

BRINGING Home the CastaWdys
Prom the Kansas Civ Star.

They are rolling up the rugs at the Hotel de
Crillon and sending the chairs back to the up
holsterers, for the American peace mission Is
coming home without any peace. (And speak
uphosterers call overstuffed, there being 80 OF
these peaceiess peace delegates sitting in them.)
The overstuffed peace mission-there we go
again! We mean the peace mission from the
allow boiler pressure lately for several ship
loads of delegates already have come home, and
the Crillon Of late months has been mere cave
of echoes compared to what it was in the height
of the season. Whole suites are now deserted,
whole floors empty, so that fourth assistant
photographer, who should now sing out for
third assistant messenger. would hear his voice
reverberate through 10000 square yards of mar
bic corridors and leapng from Henri Quatre
drawing room to Louis Quinze breakfast room,
and shatter at last against the onyx walls of
200 tenantless chambres a coucher.
The 80 refugees thus left marooned by the
rising tide of peace will be welcomed home:
We have begun to think we would have to send
relief expedition to rescue them Eighty ex-
perts on boundary illness could easily be lost
in the Hotel de Crillon, where we might have
forgotten all about them until the next rentbill
came in. But now that they have been recalled
to our attention we'll be glad to see them and
little provincial at first, with our foreign accent
and narrow nationasm, but those impressions
will wear off in time if they survive the first
shock
We do not know what the returned mission
will find to do in America, but something may
turn up. The commission on economic resources
of Austria. which has been studying the eco
nomic resources of that country from the upper
windows of the Crillon, might be set to work
figuring out how America is going to pay the
bill for its European fling. But the commission
on the boundaries of Czecho- Slovakia looks
like dead loss Still when we pick up band
of castaways flying their last shirt from the
broken mast and reduced to French breakfasts
and several acres Of marble bath rooms we
don't stop to figure the cost Of rescue. We take
them aboard from their tossing life raft and
nurse them back to health and usefulness.
So here's to the returning peace mission.
We hope they'll soon be strong and we'll again
and be able to tell the story of their terrible
privations in Paris, providing they can pick up
our language.

written in cipher, but is easily read
once you master the signs.
Look closely at the top of a
stump, which shows clearly the in
side growth of the tree, and you will
see that it resembles the drawing
given here. There will be its rings,
one inside the other, its radiating
lines, its band of sapwood and its
outer bark, and each of these has its
own story to tell.
The rings announce the age of the
tree. For every year there is ring,
and all you have to do to know how
long the tree has been growing is to
count the rings. We are told that
we may even find written there
which years were damp and rainy,
and which were dry, because damp
years make wide ring and dry ones
narrow one.
The rings have something to say
about the points OF the compass, too,
for they are usually wider on the
north side. That makes the meeting
point of the radiating lines nearer
the south side than the north side of
the tree, so, as rule, we may read
the longest of these lines as saying,
1--WE are pointing to the north" AS
with the moss on the trees, however,
it is not we'll to trust entirely to the
writing on one single stump; read all
you can find, then accept the evil
dence Of the greatest number.
The story the bark tells also has
to do with the question, the very i'm
portant question when you happen
to be lost in the woods, of where to
look for the north. It answers this
by usually growing thicker on the
north side of the tree.
When a tree has been sawed off,
leaving a level top on the stump, the
signs can be more easily read.

WHAT CONTEMPT OF COURT"
MAY MEAN.

One or two democratic editors, venting un-
concealed political partsanship, are virtuously
reading The Bee long lecture, and moraliz-
ing on our contempt of court proceedings But
they overlook the main point. 1t is not The
Bee alone that is involved, but the entire in
stitution of free press If the ruling from
Judge Redick's court is the law in Nebraska,
newspaper publication in this state will be
under judicial censorship on the narrowest
basis. Fearless and impartial dissemination of
news, involving persons who may be principals
or witnesses in some law suit will be forbid
den Exposure of. brazen fraud or official dis
honesty will be stopped, as prejudging prosecu-
ton in the courts.
Now, it is not The Bee or its editor that
is on trial here. but the right of free speech
and free press, which is finally as vital to the
liberty of the people and the perpetuity of pop
ular government as is its equal but not superior
companion, the unbought even-guided, even
tempered and independent judiciary.
Let it not be overlooked that If making pub
lie the defense of a man accused of crime
tends to impede justice, the converse must hold
good, that condemnation of man in advance
of the judicial finding of his guilt must be quite
as culpable. Those who rush forward to de-
nounce one who has perpetrated crime may
as well be mulcted for contempt as those who
permit the individual under disfavor of the
court to try to set himself right before the
public
Regardless of political bias, or friendliness
or unfriendliness to US, we urge editors to
study what is involved in this case, for it
may be anyone's turn next.
