AFTER THE WAR WHAT?

NOW that the war is over, one Of
the most serious problems confront
ing this country IS that Of labor and
labor supply. With the discharge of
thousands Of soldiers who will be
seeking employment and with the
probable influx of thousands of for
eIgners from the war worn countries
Of Europe there will arise conditions
that will tax to the utmost the skill
and judgment Of our statesmen and
civic authorities.
1t has been suggested that the con-
gestion of skilled and unskilled labor
may be offset by the emigration of
many foreigners from this country to
their former homes in Germany, Rus
sia, Italy, France and other countries.
But with the havoc war has made in
Europe thcr" Will not be a great in
ducement for these natives of Euro
pean countries to return in haste to
the fathcr.and
so, as The Advertiser sees it, there
is going to be "A condition of affairs
IN this country that will require wise
management to prevent antagonisms
between labor and capital.
When this and some other adjust
ments have been accomplished which
we are sure will occur in due time
nothing can prevent an era of pros
perity in the United States. With
our ships sailing all seas, exporting
our products to every cline, they will
bring back gold to make our national
treasury and the safes of our banks
bulge with fulness and our farmers,
flush with plenty, will indeed till a
land flowing with milk and honey"
So mote IT be!

THE CRYING NEED

The complaints we hear from Ber-
lin that the artists who have painted
some of the horrors for which the
kaiser's army anh navy are respon-
sible have treated Germany unfairly
bring to mind the story of the very
homely man who complained that a
photograph of him, just taken, fell
far short of doing him justice.
Justice" exclaimed the photog-
rapher. What you most need is not
justice but mercyv'

PRESIDENT WILSON IN EUROPE

II would be interesting at this time
to know the thoughts and feelings of
that little crowd Of "wilful men" at
Washington who have been so bent
on critcizing and embarrassing our
great president while engaged in the
great undertaking of making all fu-
ture wars more difficult, if not i'm
possible.
But the btterest denunciations
that intense political jealousy could
produce could not prevent Mr.. Wilson
from undertaking his great duty as
he saw it, and the wonderful manner
in which he has been received by the
people Of France and England prove
already that he was right ad that the
heart Of the whole world (save a
handful Of Rcpublicans) is with him.
The Atlanta Constitution, refer
ring TO the reception of President
Wilson in Paris, says:
'No monarch in history ever re-
ceived such an ovation; no such def
erence and such a general outpouring
of genuine expressions of welcome
ever before greeted any man any
where in the world. Men, women and
children, irrespective of age, nation
ality, class, religious creed or politi-
cal opinion Joined in it-all greeting
the president of the United States as
humanity's foremost spokesman"
The New York Times says of his re-
ception in London:
London, satiatcd with spectacles,
ereigns and Generals and statesmen,
gave Mr.. Wilson a welcome more cor
dial and impressive than any other of
her lll!StrlUus visitors has received
That 1t is compared with the Jubilee
Of 1897, when the venerable Queen,
after thrce-score years on the throne,
clustered about her the remembrance
es of two generations Of history and
seemed sort of symbol of the long
life of the State, shows how strong
was the feeling of the crowd.
Amid the flags innumerable and
such wealth of American flags as
London never guessed at before, past
the Trafalgar lions, past stately
houses and clubs, past hosts Of work
Ingmen and workingwomen, taking
advantage Of the holiday to see a
great leader of democracy, mid the
chimes Of all London churches, guns
roaring greeting, airplanes throbbing
1t, the 'Star-Spangled Banner
changing from the bands, the Presi-
dent and the King went to Bucking-
ham Palace. That an American
President should be the guest Of an
an English King marks the work of
time"
There has, Of course, been much
discussion in the press as to the ad-
visibility Of the President going to
Europe. Leading Republican and
Democratic newspapers, with few ex-
ceptions, agree that the President ex-
erciscd his right and did his duty in
going to the Peace Conference.
a prominent Western daily, Re
publican, says:
mere are many arguments why
the National Executive should play
his part as representative of the re-
public in world affairs. And Mr.. Will
son can hold his own. We will never
have to apologize for his ability. He
has an intellect the match of any i'm

In the Thick Of 1t

All of us were in the thick OF 1t,
because all of us were doing our best
to accomplish victory. All of us,
however, do not bear the marks.
Whether in the uniform or not,
every American responded to the APP
peal of the country, and early peace
was the reward.
Some gave their lives. Many bear
marks that signify sacrifice of less
degree. A scar is what a laige num-
Der of them received from their part
in the war.
If your part had to be financial as
sistance, you were in the thick OF it
also. Do you, however, bear any
mark as the result of your sacrifice,
or, is substantial bank account, ac-
cumulated by this wars lesson in
economy, what you received from
your part in the war?
Americans have done their part
wonderfully. All are net dlstin-
guished by scars, thanks to the spirit
with which the nation entered the
fight.
Keep up that spirit especially at
this time, and make the Victory Lib
erty Loan the greatest victory in
government loans. =

THE THIRD HELMET GOES
To- TAYLORS ISLAND
Third District to Report Quota Com
pIeted-Public Awakening to The
Be an Insult to Returned Soldiers.

And now there are only eight more
helmets left, and the indications are
that they will not be left very long,
for the people Of the county, without
regard to section, are awakening to
full realization of the fact that
failure to subscribe in full for the
last loan is an insult to the men who
went overseas and jeopardized their
very lives for this country. No man
can afford to hold back now; this
loan is not an individual matter, it is
not something 10 be settled through
petty differences, it is the obligation
of the entire United States, one coun-
try, united, and backing to the limit
the men who have fought our battles
and achieved the victory, aud small,
indeed, is the man, or men, who, on
account of some slight personal mat
ter, will refuse to lend their assis-
lance.
The third district to complete its
quota is Taylor's Island, The chair
man of the Victory Loan Committee
having received the following letter,
announcing that the amount has
been subscribed:

Committees Report.

SOn1mittee 5 Report.
To the Grand inquest of the State of
Maryland, i'll and for the Body
of Dorchester county.
Gentlemen:
We, the committee appointed by
the foreman OF the Grand Inquest OF
the State of Maryland, in and for the
Body of Dorchester county, at the
April term of the Circuit Courtfor
said county, in the year 1919, to in
spect the Jail, have visited and in
spected the same, and submit the
following report:
We found the sanitary conditions
could be greatly improved; the bed
ding and blankets should be laun-
dried for one thing, and as there is
only one toilet for both sexes, we
recommend that an additional toilet
be installed We also recommend
that the bars on the windows should
be replaced by more up-to-date har-
dened bars, as the ones on the win
dows have, at times, been patched in
numerous places, having the appear
ance at present of not being secure
in their present condition.
The office of the Jail is badly in
need of rem oGelling, and of furnl-
ture. The woodwork of the jail,
both inside and outside, needs paint
ing badly, and some repairs should
be made to the stone work of the
walls.
The conditions at the jail are as
good as can be expected until repairs
such as we recommend have been
made.
The Court House we find present
ing an excellent appearance. due to
the recommendation of the last
Inquest, which have been carried out
in such a manner as to reflect credit
upon those who have had charge OF
the work.
We note that the heating is still by
stoves, showing that a heating plat
is still needed to complete the con-
venience and safety of the building.
Respectfully submitted,

HURLOCK RAISES ABOUT
ONE,HALF OF ITS QUOTA

Splendid Meeting Held Last Night at
The Hall And Many Subscriptions
Are Received-District Expected to
Complete Quota in a Few Days.
The war film, 1.-THE Price OF
Peace" was shown at Hurlock last
night to a large crowd OF interested
citizens. The Citizens Band, of Cam
bridge, went along to furnish the
music, while the meeting was adj
dressed by Messrs. Edgar B. Sim
mons, Milford Nathan and l.. Thur
man Phillips.
After the showing of the picture
the solicitors got busy in the audi
ence and secured subscriptions
amounting to ABOUT half of the quota
of the district. The chairman of the
district and members of his commit
tee are confident that they will be
able to get the balance of the quota
within a short time; in fact the peo-
pie of the district are determined to
have one of the German Helmets as
a souvenir for the present and fu-
ture generations of the work which
the Home" soldiers did during the
great worldwide war, which threa-
tened the destruction of civilization
as we'll as the destruction of the
great American Republic.
The people all over the county are
waking up, too, to the great advant-
ages of this loan, which pays nearly
five per cent interest, becomes due
in four years, aud is likely to sell at
enough above cost before it comes
due to net one a nice little profit on
| the investment, besides the interest.
