IF EDITORS PUBLISHED
 ALL OF THE NEWS

Suppose an editor should, just for once, relieve his mind by printing all the news he happened to know at that minute.
 Options would be thrown up, citi- zens arrested, families disrupted, fight fought on every corner, candi- dates resigning, ministers leaving for distant parts, lawyers taking long va- cations, business men turning things over to their clerks for season. hired girls hunting new jobs, and so on down long list of casualties-and the editor would be so mushed up that his corpse couldn't be identified by his own family.
 A newspaper man doesn't know everything but his work is such that he hears lot that common sense, common decency and common prud- ence keep out of the paper, says the Greeley (Colo.) Inter-Mountain Press and Printer.

veterans now taking vocational train ing at the governments expense have been placed in training during the past four months as result of the point drive inaugurated last April by the Federal Board for Vocational Ed ucation and the American Legion. For months previous the Legion had been bitter critic of the manner in which the Board had administrated the af- fairs of the disabled. Disclosures made by the American Legion Weekly resulted in Congressional investi- gation of the Board. This investiga- ti0n did little to mend matters, but since the Board and the Legion have come to terms between themselves matters have progressed very favor ably.
 Ex-service men who were dis charged in March 1919, have until the last day of September to rein state their War Risk (Term) Insur- ance, without undergoing a medical examination. After that date they can reinstate provided they take the physical examination.
 Men discharged after March, 1919, still have time for reinstatement without examination, until the period of Is months from date of discharge has expired.

A project of immense scope to bene- lit members of the American Legion and their families will be placed be- fore delegates to the Legion conven- tion in Cleveland next week, it was announced in New York recently by c. Robert Baines, business manager of the American Legion Weekly. The plan contemplates an association of retail merchants throughout the coun- try who will give discounts to Legion members. In each small community one merchant in every line would be granted membership in the organiza- tion, to be known as the American Legion Stores Association. In larger towns two or more merchants would be permitted to belong. Legion mem- bers and their families would receive discounts from the usual selling prices of at least five per cent. The plan has been submitted for criticism to the leading retailers in many large cities and all have approved it's sound ness. The association, if the conven- tion delegates adopt the plan, would be administered by the Legion and all profits would be returned to cus- toners.
 The sixth anniversary of the First Battle of the Marne and the fiftieth of the founding of the French Repub- lie was the occasion recently of a presentation of Memorial Resolutions of the American Legion to France. Francis E.. Drake, commander f the Department of France of the Legion and J. Brooks B. Barker, of Philadel- phia, representing Franklin D'Olier, national commander, acted in behalf of the veterans organization and Premier Millerand received the reso- lutions, in the ceremony held at Meaux. Marshals Foch, Joffre nd Pe- tain were present. The memorial res olution expressed the gratitude of the Legion membership for the memorial certificates presented by France to the next of kin of Americans who lost their lives in service.

who received five wounds fighting for his country, is dead. His wife, who tried to subsist with him on govern mental allowance of SIS month, also is dead. The two of them received only $97.67 while they were alive. This story of bureaucratical delay has been unearthed by the service depart ment of national headquarters of the American Legion at Indianapolis. Smith and his wife died before they were able to convince the government that he really was disabled. Accord ing to Legion officials such cases could be prevented if Congress would con- sent to the Legion's plea that the War Risk Bureau be provided with sufficient funds to reach every man directly and net through official chan nels to Washington.
 Although there has been an ap- preciable increase in the number of applications of ex-selvice men for Victory medals since the American Legion volunteered to assist the gov ernment in the distribution, only 265,- 900 so far have applied, out of 3,700,- 900 former soldiers eligible to the honor. Figures are not available for ex-gobs. Any veteran can apply for his Victory Medal through any Legion post. An Armistice Day ceremony in connection with the pres entation of the medals is planned by posts throughout the country.
 Thousands of government positions will be available shortly for men and women who served their country in the army, navy, or marine corps, due to a recent amendment of civil ser vice regulations by the last Congress. The amendment gives ex-service per- sons preference in appointments, pro- viding other things are equal. The na- tional legislative committee of the American Legion is seeing to it that ex-service persons learn of their pri- vilege and that departmental heads appoint them provided they pass the examinations. The Post Office De- partment has been found to be par ticularly liberal to veterans in the matter of appointments.

 An old misunderstanding between the American Legion of New Jersey and organized labor of that state was amicably settled recently at the Le- zion department convention. The quarrel had its inception when mem- bers of Bernardsville post ran pass enger train into Hoboken, during the outlaw strike. The post was denied a charter because of this action. The charter was finally granted at the convention after the members had signed a statement declaring that in operating trains members acted as in- dividuals and not as prospective Le- zion members. Thomas Meaney, Jersey labor leader, expressed himself as satisfied with this action.

Goodrich Tires today are sold by good dealers everywhere at lower price than in 191O-and what is more to the point in this comparison, double the number of miles per tire.
 The Goodrich adjustment basis of 5000 miles for Silvertowns and 6,OOO miles for Fabrics at today's prices give motorists twice the mileage at less cost per tire.

and John Calkins and all are agreed
that some kind of a starter Ia needed
to get membership. 1t is felt :ha:
the reosan membership in this state
is 20 low compared to othcr states Is
from the fact that fewer Colorado
