President Silent on Strike.

ON BOARD PRESIDENT WILSON'S
SPECIAL TRAIN, September %. -
President Wilson was without official
advices today regarding the strike of
steel workers. and it was indicated
that for the present he did not pro-
pose to interfere directly. He was
represented as feeling that he had
done everything possible to prevent
the strike and that the best that
could be accomplished now was to
maintain order while the situation
worked itself out.
Much interest was expressed by
White House officials, however. in the
progress of events as reported in the
newspapers.

Big Task for Farley.
Some time next month President

is a tremendous undertaking, and all
the men and women Of good sense and
patriotism hope and pray that 1t will

so far as we are concerned, one
OF the principal questions withwhloh
we should wrestle is how to increase

Should Seek Uniformity.

TT Is OF very great importance that
the states work for uniformity In
many laws and act harmoniousiy in
their functions. But certainly the
states should act moro for them
selves and leave less for Congress to
do for them. Experience has proved
beyond doubt that greater economy
and larger efficiency can be had in
the action Of small political bodies
than in big ones. With the states
working tremendously together for

her returning soldiers, just about such
a position as the bashful lover does
who is already condemned to scrvitude
by the fair maiden by his side, but who
still remains specchless when the fate
ful question would be asked. He
doesn't know what to do or say, but
just trusts to luck and to her that
things will come out Alright. Trusting
to her, incidentally is often very
safe plan. But Laurens hardly knows
what to do for her returning soldiers.
She is anxious to express sense Of
appreciation and pride in the records
her soldiers Of the Thirtieth Division
and all other divisions have made, yet
TOO many celebrations and too many
speeches are not always to the taste
Of the soldiers. They are human. They
want to go home, enjoy the pleasures
and treasures Of homelife and forget
about the army and marching. We
want to honor them all and do honor
them all, but it may be expressed by
a simple Difference to what may be
their wish-to be let alone for a time
while they renew their home ties. greet
their old friends and then make plans
for the future. But, whatever may be
liant record her soldiers have made.

The recent TRADE which Gov. Allen,

South's cotton holding movement has
served to bring out one thing which
will be worth a great deal to farmers
OF this section If properly considered
Kansas and the other cereal growing
states have planted the greatest acre

to profit by the price fixed by the gov

War department officials expressed
confidence that no trouble would be

or an even greater number il neccs-
sary. The bulk Of the men arc expect
ed to come from recently discharged
troops, especially those who after
having been drafted and trained, were
prevented from going overseas by the
armistice. Opportunity to see service
in Germany, ii is thought, will lead
many OF these to enlist.
a number Of officers, probably ten
to ~, will be sent overseas with each
increment Of 1000 men leaving Camp
