men discharged because of disability
incurred in active service in the line
of duty, compensation and free medi-
cal treatment until such time as they
are restored to physical fitness. Dur
ing the summer of 1918 there was a
general effort to bring up the stand
ard of physical fitness, and many men
discharged at that time may be una
ware of their rights under an act of
Congress to compensation for disabil-
ity and medical attention and hospital
treatment where necessary. All cases
of this or a like nature should be
brought Immediately to the attention

The honor Of being the first woman
chosen to hold political Office on a
Michigan Party Committee has been
given to Miss Bina NJ. West, the foun-
der Of the Woman's Benefit Associa-
ton Of Port Huron. This honor has
been worthily placed as Miss West has
made phenomenal success in organi-
cation work. The Association she
founded 81 years ago is today the larg-
est fraternal organization for women
in the world. Miss West brings to her
appointment years of successful train
ing and business experience.

Michigan and other northern farm.
ers had limit placed on the price OF
wheat during the war by the govern
ment. There was no limit placed or
the price of cotton grown in the south
ern democratic states. 1t was case
of rank discrimination against the
northern farmer. The price of sugar
has been limited in the north where
sugar is produced from beets grown
by the farmer; but the southern cane
sugar producers have lately been per-
mitted to charge eighteen cents per
pound, way above the price fixed for
Michigan sugar. 1t would seem reas-
enable that regulations should be un-
form. Detroit newspapers claim
that Michigan and Detroit have been
treated unfairly by Washington in the
matter of fuel distribution, but De-
troit might help some by electing two
republican congressman instead of
sending one democrat down to Wash
ington to Offset the vote of their re-
publican congressman, who is trying
to do something for that great manu-
featuring city and the state.-Clinton

THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN'S
NEW LIBRARY

The University of Michigan's time
honored little library is no more
Nothing remains of the once familiar
old UNCOVERED building but its cher
ished memory. The rapid growth OF
the University in recent years has
made new library necessary, so that
which has been lost to sentiment has
been added to efficiency.
The new library, when completed
will have cost over half million dol
lars. It's final capacity will be one
million volumes. At present it con-
tains four hundred and twenty thou.

"We doubt that all the features Of
the peace settlement have been alter.
ed for the worse by the failure of the
league, even from the European view
point. Certainly from the European
viewpoint the situation is altered for
the better, because the United States
is now free from the treatened subjec-
ton Of it's will and strength to the
inferior Judgment of an international
body, and can befriend Europe most
powerfully in its own way, as it did
when it stepped between France and
death. There is little need for re-
minding Europe that it had no justifi-
cation for reposing blind faith in the
acceptance by the United States of
anything that might be done by its
representatives in Paris. Due warn
ing had been given Europe that the
treaty would be subject to the approx
al of the Senate. The election in No
vember, 1918, was an official notice
that the plans of the administration
were disapproved so far as they had
been divulged. Senators sufficient in
number to prevent ratisfcation of the
treaty took the trouble to warn Eu-
rope that it must not take too much
on faith. 1t is not the fault of the
United States that Europe went
wrong. No twist of causitry can foist
"moral obligation. Washington

Meanwhile Mexico has enacted a
law taking over for Government use

ties in that country. American inter-
ests are to be further violated and
Americans are to be driven out if this
procedure does not please them. SEN
ator Fall and others in the Senate are
wondering whether the President will
again refuse to back up Secretary
Lansing and do nothing whatever to
curb the insolent Carranza and the
turbulent Mexico. Many Americans
have invested their savings in petro-

event that the Carranza policy is car

except at the hands of the Wilson adj

SAYS FOREST FIRES
KILL SOIL FERTILITY

East Lansing, Dec. 13.-That the
timber actually burned is only part of
the loss to community from forest
fires, the destruction of soil fertility
by the fires being of tremendous econ
omic Importance, is the opinion of DR..
NJ. M. McCool, head Of the soils de-
partment at the Michigan Agricul-
tural College.
"While the loss of timber itself is
extremely important when forest
fires pass over a section, there is
another and less apparent loss which,
from many points of view, is of even
greater economic Importance. / refer
to the destruction of soil fertility.
"A great deal of humus is destroyed
when fires pass over these regions.
The loss of nitrogen, an extremely inn
portant and expensive element Of
plant food, reaches several hundred
pounds an acre in some of the burned
over areas. Naturally, the value of
these lands for agricultural purposes
Is tremendously reduced, IL not prac-
tically destroyed"
This suggestion of the far reaching
effects Of forest fires emphasizes the
need for increased effort in the annual
battle against the fires which sweep
over the northern part Of the state
every year.

the best in the world
He saw the foreign roads = in England and
France, the best in Europe = and in other Con-
tnental countries - and he knows.
The part railroads have played in the develop
nent Of the United States is beyond measure.
American railroads have achieved high stand
ards of public service by ar-sighted and courage
GUS investment of capital, and by the constant
striving of managers and men for rewards for work
well done
We have the best railroads in the world - we
must continue to have the best.
But they must grow.
To the $4,000, 100000 now invested in our
railroads, there will have to be added in the next
few years. to keep pace with the nations business
billions more for additional tracks, stations and
terminals, cars and engines, electric power houses
and trains, automatic signals, safety devices, the
elimination of grade crossings - and for recon-
struction and engineering economies that will re-
duce the cost of transportation.
To attract to the railroads in the future the ia
vestment funds of many thrifty citizens the direct
ing genius Of the most capable builders and man
ayers, and the skill and loyalty of the best work.
= in competition with other industries bid
ding for capital managers and men = the railroad
industry must hold out fair rewards to capital to
managers and to the men,
American railroads will continue to set world
standards and adequately serve the Nations needs
if they continue to be built and operated on the
American principle of rewards for work well done
