AMERICA, 1919
By S. o. LeVINSON

Lincoln thou should be living at this hour +;
America hath need of thee TO save the future
We invoke the past-the deeds and
Spirit of myself and Washington.
When thou didst grappe with resistant evil
No luxury of secret compromise
Didst thou endure thy vital problem must
Be solved not compromised
Emancipation was thy task
Divney set and sacredly performed.
But thou didst against the thing, and when
1t was destroyed, the victory was won;
Thy enemies became thy brothers of yore.
And now the decmated world, bleeding and weak,
Begs freedom from the age.Ong slavery OF war,
Lincoln, thou shoudst be living at this hour,
To heed the call and thwart the secret group
Who (selfappointed gods) for mastery over men
Would make devils league with
We have no Lincoln now who squares his words
With deeds who seeks Gods sunshine for his stage
Nor sees Ambitious image mrrored in his phrase
Bestir thy spirit, Lincoln, make it potent here.
billion souls cry out for bread and get stone.
They would prevent not win, the next great war
Does Justice house itself with blood Is life SO tame
In peace that youth must fight to death to be man
Must reason yield gun and torch when nations disagree
All other forms of murder crime save war
The diplomats commandment keeps it lawful still.
The curse OF war remains, the worst OF all,
TO uphold power and subiugae mankind.
And so through blood and anguish will struggle on,
Until thy peer mighty Lincoln effacing war by law,
Emboldens common to work their will
And rule the world.

USE AN AXE ON FEDERAL
APPROPRIATIONS IMMEDIATELY

The present Republican Congress
should not only bring to public attention
the waste and extravaganza of the
present national administration, but
what is even more important, it should
decline to be a party 10 any more
drunken sailor spending. That is, it
should refuse to make appropriations
far beyond the legitimate needs of gov
eminent, economical administered.
Government expenditures have been
inflated during the past few years to
the point where the waste Of public
money is criminal The thing to do is to
STOP 1T and to STOP 1T NOW.

to provide free treatment In public
service hospitals, and compensation
while the treatment is being admins
tered
The government estimates that there
are fully $4,000 men in this country
pacity because of wounds or disease
contracted in the line of duty who
should be receiving this treatment. So
far only about 1000 men have applied
for such service.
A statement issued from the ma
tional headquarters of the Red Cross
in Washington shows that a great mis-
apprehension exists among the dis
charged men regarding the govern
ments plan.
due to Misunderstanding and mis-
apprehension a surprising number OF
disabled service men are scattered
throughout the country not knowing
the benefits which are still theirs"
the statement read.
"'Back to the hospital after he has
donned 'civvies' and tried to keep 60
ing at civilian occupation is about the
hardest order a soldier wants to hear.
Acceptance of the government offer
does not mean q return TO service. The
hospitals are civilian institutions. They
are separate institutions, and are not
connected in any way with the army or
navy
The Red Cross is constantly dis
covering men who, through ignorance
or prejudice, are losing the advantages
of this wonderful service. SO effective
has this work become that the govern
ment has asked the Red Cross to make
this a part of its regular relief work.
All that is necessary is for the ex-
service man to apply to the nearest
Red Cross chapter. Arrangements
viii be made there for him to enter
one Of these hospitals after examina-
ton by a district public health officer.
and if his trouble is the result OF serv-
ice with the army or navy he VIII be
given transportation and admittance
to public service hospital.
"The Red Cross is now engaged In
maintaining program of recreation,
occupational therapy, meeting the
problems arising in the homes of disa.
bled men, household and legal difficult
ties and affording many miscellaneous
services to keep the men who are in
the hospitals contented with their
lot"
This work Of the Red Cross is one
of the important branches outlined
for its post war work and a part of
the funds raised in the Third Red
Cross Roll Call, November 2 to IL,
will be devoted to this purpose.

that with the first anniversary of the
signing of the armistice near at hand,
there are only couple of hundred less
clerks employed in Washington now
than there were when the war ended
1t does not please the people to hear
that there will be a deficit of two or
three billion dollars this year, and that
Congress goes on appropriating money
at the demand of the administration at
such a rate that the government will
go bankrupt, if the thing be not stopped,
even with industry staggering under
excessive taxes that have much to do
with the high and increasing cost of
living This years appropriations, it is

$4,000 have been advanced to
about 1000 disabled soldiers By
the American Red Cross for personal
uses while these war veterans were adj
justing their affairs with the federal

loan are in no sense looked upon as
charity either by the soldiers or the
