THE WOMEN'S MISSION

The Union Mission for Women is
fiourishing. and everything moving along
nicely, with the exception or few OF
the more fractiCus members of the or

Sionally stir up quite bit OF trouble
for themselves as we'll as Inc nlatrohS

crul more pairs Of good eyes and ears
and hands and feet than Is provided by
Dame Nature TO keep tho girls in order
at times The principal trouble with
these girls is their tendency 10 quhrrnI
among themselves over any trifc whlrh
will form an excuse for good argu-
mCnt, ard pretty often the arguments
arc not Of tho parlor variety. Another
habit which they have IL that OF running
away, and the striking fact about their
running is that they always want 10
run back again to IN" Mission. and they
seem moro cpntcntcd after they have
had their little hing.
While there are many girls Of this
type. il must not be thought that they
are all this sort Of girls. for many oil

she is turned loose, with Krupp works

The league of peace scheme does not for

neither does it enjoin it, and in this
respect there is grave omission.

the hands of those with sufficient conf

Of the justly suspected to deny arms

the burglar who says it is not fair for
the policeman to have a gun while he
is forbidden one. Germany bears a re-
pute which must be regarded in all

ment which ignores this essential fact

What People Are Thinking
The Missouri Gr0uci,
BY Geofrey Parsons

X ANsAs CITY, No. Feb. 11:-Mssouri
~ is cantankerous kind Of state in a
good naturcd, Middle Western way.
st. Louis jeers at Kansas City for the Kan
sas germs in its system, and Kansas City
laughs back heartily and remarks that new
oil company has just moved in from Tulsa,
taking 5000 feet Of office space, "having con-
sdered st. Louis" st. Louis knows that it
is immensely wealthy and solid and that it
is the fourth largest city in the country.
Kansas City knows that it is one-quarter
metropolis, three quarters prairie town, only
half as large as St Louis, but that it's bank
clearances passed those of St. Louis in 1917
and that destiny has marked it out to be
nothing less than the third largest city in
America. (New York and Chicago are still
safc.)
So each city jokes at the other, and both
hoot at the "downtrodden" farmer, and
everybody jumps on the neck of the "poor"
railroad man, whose wages have more than
doubled. All of this dispute is not peculiar
to Missouri But the arguing has peculiar
Missouran tinge. There is history to sup
port this atmosphere, for the streams of the
South and the North met in Missouri, and
before the free soil dixie built in Kansas by
New England there were swirling waters in

The Rurnanian Uprising

lhe Rumanlan uprising is reflex from
the mlserles of the war. The Rumanians
had bitter experience Entering the
war with high hopes and alluring visions
OF national expansion, they found them
selves quickly deserted by Russia and
left to the mercy of the German steam
roller.
Within three months Wallachia was
lost. So was the Dobrudja. The Ru-
manian army defended Moldavia for
year. But it had no choice except to sign
the Treaty of Bucharest, once Lenine
and Trotzky had signed the treaty of
Brest-Litovsk. The German occupation
stripped the country clean. The armis-
tice Of November II last rid Rumania
of the Teuton locust. 1t promised polit-
lcal regeneration. But it has brought
so far little material relief A. fertile
soil exists for the sort of unrest which
has shown itself in all the countries of
southeastern Europe, Serbia and Greece
excepted. Rumania is neighbor of the
Ukraine, and the Ukraine has been seeth-
ing for a year with disorder and revolu-
ton.
Yet politically Rumania's future is
secure. All she needs is little patience
in realizing her long cherished dream of
recovering the Pennsylvania Irredenta
Germany gave her back Bessarabia,
appropriated by Russia after the Turk
ish war Of l877'78. The peace confer
ence will restore the Dobrudja and in
addition to Pennsylvania will probably
assign her the greater part of the
Banat of Temesvar. She will become,
after the peace, the strongest Of the for
mer Balkan powers. To all Rumanians
with Aationalistic aspirations the stu
alton is one of brilliant promise Such
unrest as exists must come chiefly from
economic distress and war WEAKNESS.
Possibly there is also something anti
dynastic in it. The old King was an un-
bending Hohenzollern. He would have
committed his people to the German
cause If he had had the power to do so.
He worked always to prevent Rumanias
adhesion to the Entente But the new
monarch's policy has been thoroughly
nationalstic, and the Queen has shown
herself infexibly anti-Gcrman. The royal

Throttling Reconstruction

Information comes from Albany that
the Senate Finance Committee proposes
to throttle the Governors reconstruction
commission, whose membership repre-
sents a mobilization of the best brains
and experience of the state, by denying
the modest appropriation necessary for
its work. 1t is said the sole problem is
one of securing employment for those
who need it, and that this will largely
take care of itself-that the most which
should be done is to place fund at the
disposal of the Governor, to be spent at
his discretion.
1t is not easy to understand the atti-
tude of the Senate committee. Surely
It's members are no longer under the
control of the idea that only silly up
lifters are interested in organized social
betterment. All over the world, in everv
country and among every class, the wis
dom of ordering life better is perceived.
No politics" turks in continuing the
commission. In its makeup partisan
considerations were disregarded. The
Governor selected the best men and
women he could secure, with the result
that the commissions unsalaried per
sonnel is guarantee of intelligent and
earnest service.
The assertion that the problem is only
one OF unemployment is foolish. Besides
getting jobs for the jobless, reconstruc
ton relates to housing, to education. to
industrial relations, to food prices and
distribution, to rebirth of profitable
agriculture in New York State, and to
dozen other important matters. We
are entering on new time, and never.
was need of intelligent oversight great
er. The day of each man for himself.
with neglect of team work, draws to a
close.
The Legislature is under Republican
control, and the suspicion has grown up
that reactionary elements survive in
lt-elements which have little vision and
are unsympathetic to reasonable change
and sound progress. This is the partv's
greatest handicap, and every occasion
should be seized to remove it. The killino
OF the reconstruction commission NAV
not IN itself be an issue of the first
magnitude, but by many it will be es-
teemed symptomatic.
New-York tribune., 1919-02-16

President, a strong President of all tie
people, and the thing will be solved" Most
business men feel that some real recon
struction of the relations between labor
and capital is coming. But their ideas are
not formulated and they prefer to wait and
see what the returned soldier wants There
is the occasional pessimist Cor wise man)
who sees grave discomfort everywhere and
feels that the whole country is sitting on
a powder keg. But he is the exception,
and there visible signs of dscontezt
to support him. Specifically there is
neither l. W. W. nor Bolshevism nor Lon
Partisan League in Missouri in any per-
ceptible strength. Unemployment is not
yet serious either in st. Louis or Kansas
City. There are no serious strikes in =.
Louis. There has been and is still out
standing car strike in Kansas City, but
it has been definitely beaten.
The Dissatisf fed Soldier
There is one other issue in Missouri,
new issue only developing, that has
not made itself strongly felt in the east
ern part of the state, but that hits you ii
the eye in Kansas City every way you turn.
That is the issue of the dissatisfied soldier.
The East has not paid much attention to
Governor Aliens charges of waste of life
in the Argonne fighting. Governor Allen is
the idol of Kansas and his voice carries far
out here-even if it stops short of St.
Louis But what he said would go for little
if it were not confirmed by story after
story from the lips of returning soldiers.
This has, of course, all arisen since last
November. The papers are now full of It.
The talk everywhere is full of it. One Or
the abest and best informed men of Kan
sas City, an astute business man and =
political power in the Democratic party,
discussed it thus:
'As I see it, the returned soldiers are
going to decide the next elections. And
I'm sorry to say it, but they all have one
feeling, and that is that they weren't treat
ed right. They didn't have what they
ought to have had to fight with. Baker for
President? Why, he'd be showed under out
here"
Whether this feeling is localized in the
Kansas district. or is widespread remains
to be seen. Certainly there has been moth
ing in the East to compare with it, The
ugliest stories are in circulation. Whether
they will ultimately prove to be only COS
sip of the dsgruntled not, it seems GER
tain that with all the direct charges being
made here there must sooner or later be
Congressional investigation of the Who'll,
military conduct of the A. E. f. The issue
is not at all partisan in its inception
motive. The desire is to know the facts,
let them hit where they will. In the result
the issue may prove to be the controlling
factor in the public mind OF it may Lc
dssipated completely. At least it deserves
prominent mention in any account of the
Middle Western mind at the present writ
ing.
