Republican Policy.

The republican policy just now il to

would put five-year Limitation on
article ten or eliminate it altogether.
The President says that Europe would
in eject call America. a gutter if
after entering into an agrsement to
guarantee the boundaries of the
treaty, the United States served notice
at the same time that altar five years
she would not be SO bound. He con-
tends that Europe might well ask:
Why did you get aboard the ship in
the first place."
Mr.. Wilson also is picturing the
whole European situation as danger
ously near chaos and complete dis
order. He tells senators the world
has no idea of the true condition of
affairs i'm Europe and that America
must hasten to the rescue. He told
one senator that he worried everv
night lest he wake up the next day
and find all Europe had gone into =
crash again. Only the support Of
powerful and disinterested natione
like America bringing material and
moral factors to Eurepe's aid will
substitute reconstruction for destr1nc-
ton, and assure Europe that war N

Hs1t Move in Situation.

Obviously the next move in the sit
uation is an appeal - the Judgment
Of the American people by the Presi-
dent. He will tell the people some of
the things he has been telling the
senators. He will tour the country
soon. Just now he is making his own
record clear-he is consulting the Sen
ate. as he has been repeatedly ad-
monished to do by friends and op-
ponents both. Thus far the effort can
not be described as having dented the
opposition enough to please friends OF
the league. Those with whom the
wish may be father to the Thought

counting of noses among the indi-
viduai republicans indicates that
there are not the necessary twenty

What Chevrons Stand For.

| By their chevrons one may learn
the period of service of the dis
charged soldiers. Two gold chevrons
are authorized for each soldier for
each six months of overseas service,
| one to be worn on the left sleeve of
the blouse and the other 5n the left
sleeve of the oyercoat. They are to
be worn point up between the elbow
and the sleeve, which does not ex-
plain why 80 per cent. of the returned
overseas veterans are wearing their
gold chevrons just above the right
cuff
The blue chevrOnS also are author
lied for overseas service. They are to
be worn in the same manner as the
gold chsvrons. The officer or private
who has served overseas less than six
months may wear blue cheyrons. If
they have served more than six
months but less than one year over
seas they may wear gold and blue
chevrons.
Silver chevrons are authorized for
officers and men who have served
their country at home. Each of the
silver chevrons represent six months
of service They are worn the same
as the gold and blue chevrons. Silver
chevrons may not be worn by officers
and men who wear either gold or blue
chevrons, although they may have
served six months or more in this
country.
To brighten the color scheme the
scarlet chevrons are authorized for all
officers and men honorably dis
charged from the military service
They are worn the same as the gold,
blue and silver chevrons.
Officers and men who are highly eff
fcient, but who were retaiued in this
country to act in administrati7 or
instructive capacities are authorized
to wear gold star above the service
chevrons.

State Lite Insurance a Failure.

Gov. Philip of Wisconsin in his
message to the legislature recommends
the repeal of the state life insurance
fund law. He shows that after six
years it has only 461 policies in force
for S479, TOO of insurance and that slast
year only eleven policies were issued,
while much more than that number
were lapsed or discontinued. The ac-
tual mortality last year was 40 per
cent higher than the expected. .As
the state does not guarantee the poli-
cies, but merely collects and disburses
the funds, any further adverse expert
ence would impair the face value Of
the insurance. In consequence Gov.
Phillip recommended that the fund
be abandoned and that the risks in
force be reinsured in some reputable
company.
The state fund was promoted by
Herman T.. Ekern, while insurance
commissioner of Wisconsin, on the
claim that large number of people
would voluntarily apply for insurance
at the low rates made possible by the
elimination of agents commissions
and the paymentof overhead expenses
by the state. These expectations
have not been realized in spite of ex-
tensive advertising and low rates, and
Gov. Philip declares that this proves
that life insurance can be sold only
by the Intervention of an active agen-
cy force.

Senator LaFoIlette isn't dead Saturday
Evening Post readers will recall that year ago
one of its win the war by talk writer's, caused
U. S. Senator closely resembling Wisconsin's only
LaFollette, to commit suicide in the Mississippi, af
ter being driven to desperation by the nation wide
policy of silence on all of his actions. after the
scheme had been evolved by disspated daily paper
reporter, broke and just recovering from one Of
his beastly orgies. 1t is hard to say what other
deadier form Of punishment might have been de-
vised had he been presented with quart of good
old Bourbon about the time he came to that morn
ing. Anyway, there is reason to think that Bob
still lives as last week the Senate after years
delay exonerated him from the charges Of disloy-
atty laid against him after mis- ST. Paul speech in
1917. A special pension bill should be passed for
the Post writer in recognition of his distinguished
services in winning the war.

Nurses are Scarce

The conspicuous prominence which
the war and its revelations have
given to public health nursing as a
field of large opportunities in service
and in professional advancement is
being reflected in peculiarly convin-
cling way by the difficulties which are
being experienced by many Wisconsin
communities, both counties and mu-
inequalities, in securing public health
nurses. Six of the counties which
voted an appropriation for the en-
ployment of county nurse at the an
nual meeting of the board of super
visors in November have as yet been
unsuccessful in their search for a
/ trained worker to take charge OF this
important phase of health service in
spite of the fact that these positions
carry attractive salaries Several
other counties, in which the public is
demanding this public health nursing
service, have delayed action because
opponents of the plan argued that
the shortage of public health nurses
would make it impossible to fill the
positions even though they were Gre
ated.
Vacancies existing in these county
positions and also in the various lines
OF public health nursing in many mu-
inequalities of the state are being
urged upon the attention Of bhe grad.
uate nurses in the hope that the
rapidly growing demand will stimu-
late corresponding increase in the
number of nurses who will fit them
selves for community service. To
this end, through the efforts of the
Wisconsin Anti tuberculosis Associa-
tion, several hospital training schools
are giving credit for wofk done by
senior students in the special train
ing course in public health nursing
conducted by the anti-tuberculosis
association. The unusual demands on
hospitals, however, have decreased
the number of senior students who
can be released for this special train
ing and make more Urgent the need
for a large enlistment of graduate
nurses.
In addition to the county positions
in which there are vacancies, there is
a long list of applications for school
nurses, general community nurses,
and Industrial welfare nurses on file
with the Wisconsin Anti-Tubefculo-
sis Association which conducts a Ser
vice bureau as we'll as training
courses in public health nursing. In
dications are that every member of
the class now in training will be un-
der contract before the completion of
the course, February lst.
The spring class will begin work
Tuesday, February 4, and registra-
tions are now being received. Miss
Anna Weum, r.. n, is director Of
the course which is open to graduate
nurses and senior student nurses in
accredited training schools. A limi-
ted number of scholarships are avail
able
