REIMBURSEMENT MAKING PROGRESS.

Evidence of the speed with which returned
soldiers are being assimlated in commercial and
industrial lines is shown by the forty -eight per
cent decrease in requests by employers for te-
male help since the signing of the armistice, re-
ported by the federal director of the United
States employment service.
That the women workers not being forced
out of employment by the return of the men is
shown by twelve per cent decrease in registra-
tons by women seeking positions.
The Retail Dry Goods Association announces
that merchandise trade conditions are gradually
becoming normal and that the scarcity of mer-
chandise has been in great measure relieved.
While there are some indications of unrest
throughout the country and in the industrial
centers considerable number of unemployed, it
would seem that few men who seek work are I'M
able to find it and at good wages.
Competent observers say that reimbursement is
progressing with remarkable snloothness and
facility and that unless there is a concerted eff
fort to bring about disturbed conditions, prac-
tically all of the returned soldiers will be placed
within comparatively short time
Demands are great for goods of all classes to
restore stocks depleted during the war and it is
predicted that the prosperity of the United
States during the next few years will be the
greatest ever known.

linquent when he failed to file QUESTIONABLE

RED PROPAGANDA SPREADS.

Surprising facts as to the spread of Bolshevist
propaganda in the United States are being dis
closed at the senate committees inquiry into
lawless agitation, which is being held at
Washington.
Violent practices are reported to by the Boil
sheviki to maintain themselves in power in Eu-
rope and their organization this side of the
ocean is doing its utmost to gain strength in
America.
Professor Ralph Dennis, of Northwestern Uni
versity, gave insight into the extent Of the
well organized propaganda system in the United
States
Members of the Bolsheviki central cabinet in
Russia were described by Professor Dennis as
fairly able men who truly believed theirs
the best way 10 bring about heaven on earth
He said he was impressed that those in posi-
lions of power among the Bolsheviki were to
great extent men who had lived in America for a
few years.
These men, he said "were the most bitter
and implacable Bolsheviki in their desire to X
terminate the bourgeois class.
After going to meetings in Chicago there is
question in my mind about the desire to bring
about that scheme of government in America"
He described meeting in the Chicago Coli
scum, where an audience cheered the names of
Lenine and Trotsky for five minutes, and every
comment by speakers to the effect that America
would be the next nation to adopt the soviet sys-
tenn of government. The witness added that he
saw no difference between the l. w. w. and the
Boshevik in the ends they seek to accomplish
Mr. Dennis said one Bolsheviki official for
mer resident of the United States in bidding him
good-by in Russia said
I'll see you in about ten years We are COM
ing over to America and pull off this same
show"
The danger which lies in the spread of red
propaganda is becoming fully recognized
each day and the government, disposed for long
to ignore it. is taking definite steps to check
it in order that this country may be spared the
reign of terror which has enveloped Russia and
is showing its force in other European countries
America has desire to duplicate the expert
ences of Russia and is prepared to take such Wig
orous action may be necessary to prevent it.

A COMMERCIAL TRAGEDY.

The application for receiver for the New
York, New Haven & Hartford railroad completes
one of the greatest tragedies in Americas COM
mercial history.
quarter century ago the New Haven rail-
road was the model transportation system of the
world First to install the block signal system,
first TO use top rock ballast, of the earliest,
if not the very first, to adopt electric motive
power and metal cars, its policy was progressive
and its quest for betterrnents unceasing.
In those days the New Haven road stood at
the head of the list of dividend earners and
large portion of its profits were applied to i'm
provement of the system. The capitalization
was not excessive and the bulk of the stock was
held in small blocks by the people of Connecticut
and Massachusetts. 1t was a personally di-
rected' road under the careful and conscientious
guidance of its president. Wall street had little
or influence over its management.
But it was too lucious plum to go UNDECIDED
by the big financial interests. Stock was gradu-

CRITICISM BREAKS FORTH

The expected sharp criticism of the constitu-
ton of the League of Nations has broken forth.
The strongest criticism seems to come from
the militarists, who cannot concede that it might
be possible to rule the world by other means than
force of arms.
The danger which might follow if its provis-
ions fail to work is pointed out as serious men
ace to the interests of this nation.
There is no denying the fact that if the con-
stltution were adopted and not enforced, or only
partially enforced with discrimination against
this country any other country the result
would be bad. But isn't the same argument APP
plicable to any contract or agreement?
Even its most bitter opponents agree that if
the constitution could be carried out in letter and
in spirit it would be ideal
The real question seems to be whether civil
cation has sufficiently advanced to make the
League of Nations effective
Opinion is divided upon this point but the best
minds of the world seem agreed that President
Wilson has opened the way to universal peace
and application of the Golden Rule among ma
tons
