A SHOWDOWN ON GRADE CROSSINGS.

The Iowa railroad commission is
meeting with The Iowa highway COM
mission today TO talk over and consid-
er elimination Of grade railway cross
ings. II Is to be gathered from Com
missioner Dwight n. Lewis plain talk
to the newspapers that the railway
commission has practically made up
its mind to eliminate grade crossings
wherever il may be done and leave as
few danger spots as possible. What
stand the highway commission shall
take on a sweeping program OF elimin-
alton is not yet evident but the rail-
roads commission seems to have prac-
tically come to 4 conclusion judging
from Mr.. Lewis statements when he
says that the railroads will have to
come to 1t" and that the towns and
counties should get 1t out of their
heads that the railroads are going to
stand all of the expense. In most cases
it is the roadway and not the railroad
that will be changed and it is only fair
that towns should share the burden"
Mr.. Lewis is saying now what the
Times Republican said long ago when
the immense and growing automobile
traffic was forecasted. The grade
crossing must be eliminated wherever
possible as a mere matter Of common
safety. That does not mean that every
grade crossing in the state must be
elevated or depressed at once but 1t
does mean that a program of grade
elimination should be instituted at
once and carried on vigorously for sew
eral years perhaps, those crossing most
dangerous and those more readily
convertible taking precedence. There
are many crossings that slight changes
in the roadways afford opportunity TO
go over or under the lines. where
change in the road will eliminate one
or more crossings and that can be
made without great expense to the
public or the railroads; and There are
crossings where the expense will be a
considerable item TO both towns and
counties and railways where the grade
should be eliminated because public
safety overrides expense. There are
places where the deepening of cuts by
the railroads will give an overhead
crossing and relieve an upgrade, places
where grade crossings are concealed
| by high banks which should be erased
whether the crossing Is grade or not,
innumerable spots that are essentially
and continually dangerous and may be
made safe or at least safer.
Public safety on railroad crossings
has been coming TO the showdown for
| several years. Efforts have been made
to avoid changes in crossings by bills
introduced in the legislature forcing
autos and other vehicles to come
to q full stop and look and listen
at crossings. Whence those bills or
iginated is obvious. The eternal annoy
ance and delay that such a law would
create are equally obvious. Now II
appears we have come to the question
pointblank and we should meet it in q

Roundup. March c.-R. S. Anderson,
formerly engaged in promoting an oil
company near Roundup. has returned to
this city, with discharge from the
army. Anderson left here last summer
with the draft troops and entering an
officers training school soon received
his commission. At the time Of his dis

NEW CITIZENS IN RETURNING

Under the Stars and Stripes We're
Naturalized While in France.

When our armies return from the war
there will be in the ranks Of the victori-
Gus soldiers $1,000 or more new citizens
of the United States. This country will
spell ''home' to tens of thousands Of men
who were aliens when they sailed away to
fight for the country that is now their
own for in the midst of battles the Bu-
reau of Naturalization of the Department
of Labor has reached out to extend the
privileges of citizenship to all foreigners
who were defending the principles OF lib
erty under the Stars and Stripes.
Louis Weinberger, sent across seas to
carry out the Governments naturaiiza-
ton program. returned recently after
three months of hard labor. for II was
his duty to follow up $1,000 of the 150,-
900 naturalization blanks especially pre-
pared for the war emergency.
According to the plan worked out by
the bureau. in conference with the
Judge Advocate General. scheme to
expedite the usual process Of naturaliZa-
ton was made practicable and legal. The
required formalities We're reduced to the
simplest terms. The preliminary decla-
ration of intention was waived and 1t was
made possible to isue the final papers
without any lapse of time. The apph-
cant could execute one paper in dupli-
cate. together with affidavits. and take
the oath of allcgiance-all in short or
der
The first serious problem was TO reach
all the aliens in the distribution of the
blanks. but this was soon solved by
sending the papers through brigade
headquarters and thus reaching the com
pany units In many eases extra blanks
were sent for. and so far the exact num-
Der actually used has not been obtained.
Although naturalization was not in any
way compulsory. il was soon evident
that there was a general desire to at
tain citizenship wherever foreigners
were serving. and that was everywhere
in the armies of the United States. Among
the applications nearly every nation on
the globe was represented. Because of
the haste with which so many soldiers
were made citizens. however,, il must
not be supposed that the bars requiring
that men accepted by the nation should
be worthy Of enrolment as Americans
were let down. Owing to military reg
ulatiops. each mans history had been
carefully tabuIated and then the men
who were making the world safe for
democracy belonged to a class that was
as whole trustworthy.
One of the interesting phases of this
wholesale naturalization enterprise had
TO do with alien enemies. Even these
who could prove their loyalty were en-
titled TO citizenship, and . number of
Austrians and Germans took the oath
Of allegiance to the flag. Owing to the
efficiency Of the Bureau of Military In
teligence there was little danger Of mis-
takes in the admission of undesirable
men.
