BILL IN CONGRESS TO HELP
 SOLDIERS

Washington, D. c. May 27.- Another bill providing for sol dier settlement legislation was introduced in the House yester- day by Representative Tillman of Arkansas. The measure is very similar to the plan drawn up by Elwood Meade of the Rec lamation Service and endorsed by Franklin K. Lane, secretary of the interior. One important addition, however, is a provision creating a fund to loan honor- ably discharged soldiers or sailors not to exceed $500 at four per cent, to enable them to purchase stock and equipment or to build a home. The bill ap- propriates $500,000,000. MT. Tillman also introduced a bill calling for the repeal of the daylight savings law, which he says is obnoxious to rural resi- dents.

A man said a few days ago he would have gone to church Sunday if So and So had gone. It is possible that someone is staying away from church and a religious life because you are not doing your duty. Am l my brothers keeper? Let's answer that question in way that no one can find fault with us. Come to church next Sunday and bring some one with you.
 We had our good services at our place Sunday. Good Sunday school, 65 present; 72 at the morning preaching hour and an even hundred at the even- ing hour. Good B. Y. P. U.

Nebraska's Growing Good Roads.

Crops may be hauled to market in Nebraska
this year at lower cost per ton than ever in
the history of the state. This will be the first
fruitage of the good roads campaign that is
now being vigorously pressed in all parts OF
the state 1t is too early to give de unite and
exact figures, because conditions OF construc-
ton will not permit 1t is known, though, that
the several counties of the state set apart more
than $l0000000 for road improvement. and that
considerable part of this has been expended.
Definite projects have been outlined, surveyed,
figured and approved at the state engineers Of
fee, and work on much of the program is under
way Here we read of stretch of thirty-tWo
miles completed, there it is ten, and from all
parts of the state come the reports Of activity
in better highway construction Concrete and
steel bridges, hard surfaced roads, OF roadways
built of sand and clay that are wear-Gessting in
high degree and hold surface weul combine
to make the use of the highways less costly
than ever. With the proof thus furnished Of
the real economy in good roads, il is certain
that the campaign will never be abandoned in
Nebraska until the state is covered by net
work of we'll constructed and carefully main
tanned roads. As early, earnest and con-
sistent advocate of the improvement The Bee

VOTING ON THE TREATY.

Voting on some of the proposed changes in
the peace treaty may be. had in the senate dur
ing the coming week. While it is not expected
these will be conclusive. it is admitted they will
be significant of the eventual outcome of the
contest. The debate WILL of course, continue,
that the senator's may express themselves fully
on the exact terms of the document, and cover
the text as far as it technically or directly af-
fects the United States. Conceding that the
sentiment is pretty we'll crystallized the proceed
ings ought to disclose to the public the probable
lineup for the final vote.
Senator Johnson's extemporaneous reply to
Senator Williams and other democratic critics
of his course last week is reported to have had
greater effect than any discourse on the sub
ject yet delivered in the senate chamber. No
claim is made that any votes were changed,
but the energetic utterances of the Californian
broke through the camouflaged barrier of poll
tics set up by the administration supporters
and placed the treaty squarely before the SEN
ate, to be considered as it relates to and af
fects American interests without reference to
the fortunes of any group of politicians.
1t is thus the critics of the treaty would
have it passed upon. The only attempts to
make political capital out of it have come from
the democratic side, the followers of the presi-
dent insisting that all opposition grows out of
hatred" of the chief executive. This assertion,
weak enough at its best, was deprived of most
of its force when certain Of the most inhu-
entail democrats in the senate made it plain
that they could not and would not support the
treaty in its submitted form. -

Our New Merchant Marine.

ALLEGATION of the eight former German mer
chantmen to the Shipping board by the War
department adds greatly to the Importance of
the governments passenger and cargo carrying
fleet. 1t increases in some degree the prob
lem of the fleets future. In general way
the Shipping board has outlined the eventual
transfer of all the vessels under its control to
private ownership. Provision for this step has
not been fully worked out, although the plan
is quite likely to be adopted. Long before the
war came upon the world the question of gov
eminent ownership and operation of ocean
commerce carriers had been pretty fully dis
cussed, and it was fairly we'll agreed to that
the public ownership and management of such
fleet would not be for the best interests of
commerce. Arguments that then prevailed are
still effective. Experience during the war is
not safe guide. 1t is true the Shipping board
was enabled to accomplish important and in
many ways unexpected results, but under such
conditions as cannot prevail in peace time.
That the American merchant marine, restored
as a result of the great conflict, is to be al
lowed to again sink to the condition in which
it was FIVE years ago is unthinkable, but its
success must be achieved along econoIoic and
not on political lines.

Pershihg and the American
Soldier
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

As so many of our would-be International
lists frank to tell us these days that there
is no American type that our institutions are
without results in character-forming and our
education equally resultless in training the mind,
it is rather pleasant to note that General Perish
ing takes no stock in any such baderdash.
which can be safely left to the parlor-socal-
lists to null over. For the general, in the
moment of his greatest triumph in his home
coming, never forgot the man in the trenches,
the doaghboy; and when asked it did not take
him vety long to say that the American soldier
was the finest soldier in the world, and to give
his reasons therefor. What General Pershing
said has meaning and message far beyond
the issue of war or the emergencies Of the bat
tlefelh. For, as he put it succinctly, "the Amer
lean soldier is the finest because of the way
our boys are raised. From childhood he is
enco dragged to take the initiative and to feel at
the start that he is master of his own destiny.
That is why he is able to do what he did: and
Judging him from what he did, we have every
right to boast and be proud of the American
douEhboy and there is no doubt of that"
That this evaluation by General Pershing is
no idle compliment is borne out by the fact
of what he and the boys did in the six months
which began about June and ended on Novem-
ber ii to bring Germany to her knees For
while this relatively brief period in which the
troops of the United States were actively
gagged in open warfare seems almost negligible
as compared with the four years and more of
the war as whole. it was as all the world
Knows today, the determining period and it
was determining by reason of the spirit and
the resources Of the American army and its
chief component, the doughboys. For if moth
ing else proved this, the famous St Mihiel
drive, which in 81 hours forced the enemy out
of the territory it had occupied for four years
in the face of repeated attacks. and which re-
leased 200 square miles of territory, captured
1921 prisoners, 456 guns and 752 machine
guns, would prove it, to say nothing of the
great Mouse -Argonne offensive wherein the
Pershing strategy of drawing the best Ger
man divisions to front to consume them"
succeeded because the army performed almost
superhuman feats.
That they were thus able to recall the gold
en- age of the intrepid heroes whose deeds have
always fired the hearts of youth in these con-
centrated six months was due entirely to our
American education and to our method of liv-
ing General Pershing is quite right. We have
national type, and psychologist he is also
correct in attributing the success of the dough-
boy to his training in initiative. But more
than that, it is the American school. the pri-
mary secondary, high school and college that
has given this initiative full effect, and all the
efforts of Jeremiahs among US to refuse to see
this won't alter the facts.
