The farms of the United States
furnished two and half million men
to the army. Needless to say they
have not all come back.
According to report issued by the
state Of Nebraska, 10000 men will
be needed by that state alone to help
in harvesting the wheat crop.
The work of Rehabilitation is very
far advanced. A large proportion oi
the farm boys should be back on the
farms. They are not. In the state
of New York 10000 men left farms
to Join the colors, and 5000 Of them
have gone back.
Many more have been freed from
the army, but they have stayed in
New York city. And that city reports
graver conditions due to unemploy-
ment than any other city in the union.
Conditions in Cleveland are had
enough, but they are worse in New
York than anywhere.
Farm boys have decided TO be city
boys, and join the ranks Of the unem-
ployed. If they obtain employment.
the expense Of living in the city will
leave them in the same position fin
ancially ut the end of each month as
il they had gone back to the farm.

But why should farm boy want

Mr.. Albert Mamaty of Pittsburg is
president of the Slovak League of
America, and he seems to be worried
by the activities Of the interior de-
partment touching the subject of
Americanization. A conference held
by the department has been attended
by representatives of foreign-born
residents of the United States, and
the latter have lifted up their voices
in rebuke-
Many of the speakers gave warn
ing that no attempt should be made
to force American citizenship upon
an alien. for that would give him rea-
son to believe that this country was
attempting to submerge minority
nationalities. And Mr.. Mamaty was
loud in denouncing any attempt to
make foreign born residents or citi-
zens discard the use of their national
tongue.
Before these foreigners tell US not
to dare to do this or that they should
first find out the details of our pro-
gram. Before accusing a man of
murder it is advisable to produce a
corpse as evidence-or at least, some
proof that certain party is missing.
Who is trying to force citizenship
on aliens! Who is forbidding for
eign born residents to speak their ma
tive tongue? And it would BE- inter-
esting to lalrn what argument there
is against the submergence Of a mis-
cellany of nationalities on THIS soil.
Is not the American nationality good
enough?
The attempt is obviously to cloud
TIE issue. There is. very properly, a
TO prevent schools from
teaching subjects in any language
but English; there is no attemyo be-
ing made to forbid foreigners to
,peak their own language among
themselves. Thegr is no reason Why
taxpayers should support school
teachers to perpetnate any language
out our own-unlekt it forms a spb-
ect in the curriculum.
Nobody requests these aliens Ia
ONE here Nobody will object if
hey decide to depart. But, if they |
vih to partake in our destiny, let
hem remove the barriers of aloofness
nd learn to share our ,deals, in
tinets, and language.

RATE INCREASE IS
PROPOSED BY HEADS
OF THE RAILROADS

Washington, Aug. 20.-Recommen-
dations of the association of Railway
executives for return of the rail
roads to private operation under
conditions that will insure adequate
revenues and maximum service to the
public were laid before the house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce today by Thomas Dewitt
Cuyler chairman: of the association.
Congress, under the plan, would
direct the interstate commerce COM
mission ito approve rates which will
enable the railroads to be self-sus-
tanning" the rate regulating author
ity to be vested exclusively in the
central commission and regional sub
committees. There would be no
guarantee of income or dividends by
the government.
Broad regulatory powers would be
vested in federal transportation
board to be created as coordinate
body with the interstate commerce
commission. This board, to be COM
josed of three commissioners appoin-
ted by the president, would be charg-
ed with general oversight Of trans
pOrtatlon from the point OF view OF
the public interest" 1t would relieve
the interstate commerce commission
of all functions except rate regula
ton, valuation and accounting.
In regulating rates, the commission
would act upon certification by the
board from time to time for the
amount of revenues needed by rail-
road needed to pay operating ex-
penses, and "fair return" on the
value of it's properties and maintain
credit sufficient to attract new CAPT
tai necessary for the expansion of
facilities. 1t was believed, Mr.. Guy
Ter said, the railroad should have
from $500, 100000 to 81, 100000 of
new capital and for expansion of ia
cilities to meet the growth in popu-
lation and industry.
The proposed board also would
have authority to distribute traffic
when necessary to relieve longest
ion on certain lines and in time of
national emergency, to consolidate
all lines into a unified system. 1t
also was recommended that congress
authorize the consolidation of exist
ing lines into strong, competitive
systems" when considered to be in
the public interest.
