POST THE SLACKERS.

Alien slackers who renounced their American citizenship rather than fight are looking overseas for help. The Norwegian and Swedish govern ments have protested to the state department against deportation, which the American legion demands.
 This protest followed the disclo- sure made by the American Legion Weekly in its issue of October 24. 1919, as to the number and loca- tion of these frst-paper slackers. This record, which had not previ- ously been given the public, was read from the Weekly into the Con- gressional Record, and resulted in stimulating favorable action of the Lufkin bill, providing deportation.
 The protesting governments plead ed treaty rights. But it is clearly the right of our Government to de- port persons who are ''inimical 10 the public welfare" which designa- tion fits the frst-paper stacker like a glove.
 Protests must not be needed, says the American Legion Weekly. The first-paper stacker must go. In taking that action we may well sym pathize with the pro-esting govern ments. Under similar circumstances we would protest against such cat tle being shipped back to our shores
 While alien slacker> who re- nounced their American citizenship to escape military service have been listed and classified and their de- portation will be insisted upon by the American Legion. other varieties of alien slackers must not be lost sight of IL possibly is not prac ticable to deport them all. Their numbers reach into the tens Of thou sands, and in many instances they are protected by treaty rights. Since they never swore allegiance to the United States. their conduct was somewhat less reprehensible than that of our own American slackers. Certainly they are not 10 be com pared with the frst-paper slackers, who are the most undesirable class next to alien enemie-and they must go.
 But there is @ stigma upon the whole tribe of alien slackers. In deporting the frst-paper slackers we must mete out proportionate punish ment to the others.
 The Lufkin bill (H K. 9416,, now before Congress, in addition to de- porting the frst-paper siackers. would deny citizenship to the oth- CTS for 9 period of five years. This is inadequate. So long as they are permitted to enjoy the benefits of living in America, withholding of citizenship would concern them very little. The law should provide that their names be listed and the lists published and posted in the com munities wherein they live: and they should be totally disqualified for citizenship. This as minimum penalty. The legion's views in this respect have been transmitted to Congress through the legislative committee.

 In talking about the kindergarten [ with mothers, I often meet with re sponses like these: "Oh, I couldn' send Freddie; he behaves so badly or q don't think I want to send Dora; she's gentle and obedient now, but Pm afraid she'd ct rough mix ing with all those children" What is the matter?
 Freddies mother is a quiet, or derly middle-aged woman who wants Freddie to play about quietly" or sit still for hours at a time. She has either forgotten her own child hood or else she was naturally quiet and docile. And Freddie's restless inquisitiveness, his desire for active self-expression, she puts down as naughty" disobedient, bad"
 Freddie did come to kindergarten, however, and his mother visited ire quently. She watched him giving quiet, absorbed attention to the pie lures, music and stories which were presented by the teacher, and she observed that he had opportunities to express his own ideas actively, artistically, musically and in other ways that suited his needs. She saw his time divided into periods of action and rest, periods when con centration was demanded of him and periods when his mind would relax. She was a slow-thinking woman, but good and happy Freddie was in his new environment, and gradually she began to apply this new method to Freddie's life at home. Kindergar- ten has taught her to see her son as not naughty, but active, and she and Freddie are both happier for that revelation.
 Dora also came to kindergarten. but she proved not to be as gentle and obedient as her mother had thought her. Dora, I am compelled to say, was clever and sly. She had learned how to win her mothers s approval, reserving better moods for her presence, but she was not popu lar with the other children; sly child never is. And when Dora went home and wept over the cold recep tion she had received, her mother was naturally surprised and indignant and started for the kindergarten to protest against such injustices. She had expected her little daugh ter to show the other children how a nice little lady could act" she said. But she soon had her revela- tion by seeing for herself Dora's other side.
 Doras life at home has changed considerably since then, perhaps not for Dora's immediate happiness, but certainly for her good.
 Between these two extremes there are many other children, with quail

Disposition of Railroads Which Were Left in the

 Be Taken Up.
IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM
Some of the ReCommen- dations by Labor and Various Commissions
 and of Owners.

WASHINGTON, March IS. - Ad- iournment of Congress without leg. islation providing a solution of the railroad problems leaves this ques- tion as one of the principal heritag es of the next Congress. Advocates of various plans already have begun to promotes propaganda for their re spective theories, and are prepared to urge Congress to take up consid- e1ation early in the next session.
 At that time, testimony taken be fore the Senate interstate Commerce Committee of the present Congress will be available. The new group of legislators will be confronted with recommendation of seven groups of interests. These are: The Railroad railway labor, railroad security own CTS, Interstate Commerce Commis sion, shippers, and State Commis sions.
 The Railroad Administration in dorsement of a five-year extension of Federal management was opposed by all other interests, except that the labor groups opposition was qualified. All interests except the Railroad Administration and railway labor advocated return to private management as soon as Congress has enac ed legislation permitting a large2 measure of unified opera. tion and of stricter Government con trol. The labor forces proposed Gov ernment ownership with private man. agement.
 The varied views may be sum- mariZed as follows:
 Railroad Administration five year extension of Government con trol, with alternative or early return of the roads to private management Former Director General McAdoo re garded it as an interim course, rath- CT than a test, to give Congress time to work out a permanent solu- tion. MT McAdoo presented no per manent solution; MT. Hines proposed eventual private management, with mergers of the numerous roads into six or more regional companies, with more uniform financial strength, the Government represented on the board of directors, profits to be shared with the Government and perhaps employ ees, and the roads assured adequate return on Investments
 Interstate Commerce Commission For private operation, with privilege of pooling equipment and facilities, cooperating in operating plans, mer- gers within limits, Government reg ulation of securities issues, clarifi cation of the twilight zone between State and Federal authority, com plete mergers in time of war or emergency, regulation of construc- tion, and development and co-ordina- tion of inland waterways with rail lines All this would be under the regulation of a Government agency, presumably the Interstate Commerce Commission.
