Soldiers on Soldier Jobs.
From Overseas Edition Of Camp podser.

Long haired economists and hairless professors are scratchingS
their heads and looking distinctly worried these days about what Isl
going to happen to the discharged soldier. No matter whether or not

The soldier ISN'T worrying about it at all: And, why should he
There is not a man in the A. Il. F. who cannot, ii he wishes, return to-
his old occupation, and probably carry on even better than before aI
a result of the experience and training he has received IN the armJ
The only effect that these employment agencies and well meaning
advice bureaus have had on the soldier, so far, is to distract his attenI
new fields. This is the worst thing that could happen. This is nd
time for the returning A. E. +. to experiment with new lines Of EN-
ployment. The welfare of the country demands that Its man power
resume the normal channels as soon as posslble-the welfare OF th9
soldier demands the same.
There is too much of a tendency right now toward esSaYlnE
unexpIored jobs-toward "a change. - II every man IN the A. Il r
tried to change profession and change jobs with some other man upon
his return TO the states, the result would be a tremendous confusion
If a few men, here and there, do the same, the result vii. be the same
only on a smaller scale. The welfare of the country and OF the md
yidual will suffer in either case, .1 ,
Eyery man in the A E. +. had some profession before he entered
the service. No matter what notifications. war may have, wrought
during the last two years, the old positions which have been yaeate'
re wal, basis lust as fast as it can, and that means a demand for the
same old economic machinery into which the whole soldier personnel
once fitted several years ago. Each man who was a cog in that ma,
owes it to the nation to resume his place there just as soon as
the order Of things will permit
Probably the strongest tendency evidenced IN the army today is
that ON the part of many men 10 seek quick money by chanclng
come formative gold mine. A f~ of these might succeed, but the
grsat majority would inevitably fail. There is no quick road TO
success" -,
The great future Of the soldier rests, not in some untried JOB, not
in a "bip idea - for easy money, but in the certain success which lies
before those who will be content With returning to their normal; pre-
war occupations, and taking up the duties OF citizenship where they
left off a year or two years ago.

CANADIAN VETERANS
DISLIKE MENNoNiTEs

Scotland, s. D., April 22.-That the
war veterans of western Canada, or
at least part Of them, have threatened
to take radical steps to prevent the
further influx of Mennonites from
South Dakota. is shown by a copy of
a Regina, Sask., newspaper.
The newspaper states that no replies
had yet been received by the Great
War Veterans Provincial association
either from c. Grant MacNeil, national
secretary Of the Great War Veterans,
or j. A. Calder. minister of immigra-
ton and colonization. concerning the
reported influx Of Mennonites into
western Canada and h policy of i'm
migration. ~a -
The newspaper further states that
the Regina veterans, backed up by
other provincial branches and veterans
Of Manitoba, had notified the provin-
cial executive that trouble was brew
ing; that in order to avoid it the Off
cials should at once obtain a definite
statement from Mr.. Calder as to the
policy Of the government relative to
immigration.
