Developing Rapidly

The children are growing and
developing rapidly in the years
from the first grade to the eighth,
but they cannot progress mentally
and physically if they do not have
adequate food. A cold lunch now
and then is not so bad, but a cold
lunch five days a week. four weeks
Il month, eight or nine months
out of the year, grows most mo-
notonOuS.
Ask yourself how you would
like to grow and study on a cold
day with no warm food inside of
you from early in the morning
until late in the evening. Good
school buildings and adequate
equipment and teachers may be
provided, but unless the children
are in a good condition for study
they cannot reap the benefits of
those fine things. Many teachers
testify to the fact that the child
rem appear to be in better physical
and mental condition for work
when they have a hot dish at noon,
that the discipline is easier at the
lunch hour and that the children
do better school work in the after.
noon.
Much good work can be done
toward establishing good food
habits for the children by install
ing the hot school lunch. They
learn something about the kinds
Of foods that are needed to make
them grow, to build their bones
and teeth, and to keep them warm
and give them energy. AS result
they are more willing to eat the
kinds of food that are best for
them.
In some Of the schools in Wash
ington, where the hot lunch has
been installed, the hot dish is serv-
ed only during the cold months
and discontinued when the wealth
er is warm in the spring or fall.
Others serve the lunch for the en-
tire school term, because the child
rem want it and the teachers and
parents believe it is worth while.

ALLIED LOANS CANNOT Be
PAID, SAYS PROFESSOR.

Ann Arbor, Mich., Dec as.-The
billions OF dollars loaned by the Unit
ed States to allies during the war are
lost to the country, is the opinion
OF Professor David, economist at the
University of Michigan.
Europe cannot send us gold, and
the only manner in which our form
er allies can pay is in goods" he
said. Foreign goods in sufficient
quantity to pay the interest on the
debt, if dumped on our market each
year, would mean ruin to American
industry.
I'VE have granted European ma
tious credit Of $500. 100000 since
the war. This partly is cause for the
great initiation of bank credit that
exists in America today. Our manu-
facturers have sent goods to Europe,
secured by credit in banks of this
country. 1T our bankers demanded
payment it would mean thousands OF
bankruptcies in Europe and Ameri-
ca. Our bankers must be content to
leave these loans on their books"

BONUS AGAIN Is
ATTACKED BY
HOUSTON
Admits He Doesn' Know
Where Money for Sol
diers Is Coming From, in
Statement.

Washington, Dec 2&.-OppOsiug
the soldiers bonus bill before the
senate finance committee, Secretary
OF the Treasury Houston recommend
ed a substantial reduction in the ag-
gregate taxes collected from the peO-
pie, q reduction i'll the extreme sur
taxes, and replacing the excess prof
it's tax with a simpler and more
certain tax upon corporation in
comes or profits,' a simple system of
specific sales or consumption taxes.
Unless every unnecessary govern
ment experiment is avoided and ap-
preparation requests reduced to q
minimum, tax revision on "a sound
basis cannot be carried out, asserted
Houston, and the successful financial
conduct Of the government will be
"scriously impaired" during the next
three years.
Houston said the soldiers bonus
bill probably would cost about $2,.
300, 100000 per year. However, il
all eligible veterans took advantage
Of the Insurance provision that alone
"would cost 1854 100000 PEI
year" he confessed. Houston also
confssed his Inability to suggest how
this money shall be realized.
II the bill passes, the reduction OF
the extreme sur-taXes would not cX
empt the rich, nc said, as they now
avoid taxation by investing in tax

Japan on the restrictions Of immigra-
ton of Japanese immigration is in
sight, is indicated in official circles.
The question raised by Japan's pro-
test against the California law pro-
bibiting land ownership by Japanese
is causing difficulty, it was learned.

an arrangement which would be fair
to Japan and would protect her resi-
dents in California and other Pa
cific states. 1t is understood here>that
every effort will be made to avoid
any action overriding the California

RUSSIAN TRADE. IS
TEMPORARILY
BLOCKED
Politicians Will Find Some
Pretext in Order That
They Might Yield to Their
Masters Voice.
By PAUA HANNA,
Federated Press Service.

\
Washington, Dec. 2S.--Gold is
gold, whether or not Wilson's hang
over secretary of the treasury will
assay it, and the admission of gold
from Russia means that trade be-
tween that country and Russia can
now begin, in the view Of many bust
ness men.
Brave men eat thcor crow at once,
While towards pick it over for months
and months. The Wilson alministra
tion has been nibbling at Russian
crow ever since it First lifted the
blockade" last July. But the taste is
rancid ana the White House, state
department and treasury department
have now passed the buck to the
mints and assay offices.
Russian gold may enter the coun-
try" the statesmen say, but the
mints won't accept it, However, it
would require several weeks for Rus
sian gold to reach New York, and 10
more weeks will bring Il new admin
istration to the mints and assay Of
ficcS.
Besides, this Russian gold can be
exported again from the United
States. And even France will be glad
to act as an international fence for
the tainted lucre, at q proper dis
count.
There are no illusions left about
this matter OF Russian trade so far
as the leaders in house and senate
are concerned. The president OF "hu-
manity' now in the White House
may SELECT the French as his favorite
children and declare that American
business men shall not have q penny
OF Russian gold until the French
bond holders have cut their pound of
flesh from Russia. But the voice
which congress obeys comes from
nearer homo.
This applies alike to democrats
and republicans. On Monday Of this
week the democratic steering COM
mittce of the senate adopted as ono
OF it's planks that There should be
a complete and early resumption OF
trade between this country and Rus
sia as one means of relieving the ag-
ricultural reproduction from

| fering.'

/ what Russia most needs from Amer

/ some sentimental preteXt for yield

interests, 1t is the manufacturing eX-
porters who are insisting upon trade
t with Russia. aand it is true that q
1 revival Of manufacturing will bene-
fit the farmer indirectly, just as il
! will hnn1fit bo million n cit Y
workers who have been thrown Out

1t is to .prostrate Russia that
