THE PROFITEERS
New York Tribune)

Editor Tribune: Your editorial on
the bonus discussion is a fair presen-
tstiOn of the soldiers case, and your
comparison Of the situation of the
service men with the situation of
those who stayed at home emphasizes
one Of the strongest arguments which
we who support the bonus present.
There is, however, an even stronger
point which / should like to see
brought before the public.
While our men in uniform were TAX
ing their chances at a dollar day,
hundreds of individuals established
themselves at Uncle Sans expense in
businesses which will support them
for life. The modus operandi was
simplicity itself. thanks to the cost
plus system and the lavish manner in
which contracts were let at Washing
ton. All that was needed was friend
at the capital and a brass-edged
nerve.
Thus equipped. hundreds of individ-
uals, possibly thousands. journeyed
to the shores of the Potomac (if they
didn't have the necessary railway
fare, they borrowed IT'D and signed up
war contracts, on the cost plus basis,
for anything that happened to be
needed Then, returning TO their
home towns. they purchased land, for
which the government paid, plus 10
per cent, and built a factory, for
which the government paid, plus 10
per cent, and installed machinery, for
which the government paid. plus 10
per cent. They then, began manu-
facture. Their help was paid by the
government, plus 10 per cent, and the
goods they made were sold to the
government, plus 10 per cent. When
the war ended they were compensated
by the government for the ''losses"
involved in the cancellation of their
contracts.
These people now have their plants,
q going business, and nice bankroll
of working capital-all provided by
the people of the United States who
are now being taxed to pay the bills.
Some of these patriots" charged
their Red Cross and Salvation Army
contributions as manufacturing
costs" and collected 10 per cent "plus
basis" on them. One shipyard ship
ned a bunch of entertainers from New
York to their plant to entertain theil
war workers." and charged that tc
the government, plus 10 per cent.
These statements we have on the
authority of Major F. H. La Guardia
the president of the board of alder
, men. He made them recently at 1
5 supper of the Washington Height
Post of the American Legion.
3 In such circumstances, opposition t.
e the bonus is an insult. 1t involves tn
idea that the men who did their serv
e ice in uniform for dollar day ar
e not only unworthy of any considera
g ton, but are plain, everyday sucker

SCHOOL NOTES
Principal Hensley Calls Attention to
Grave Fault

We stated last week that one OF the
purposes of this department was TO
inform patrons Of the school of the
conditions and problems in which they
can be Of assistance to the teachers in
efficiently carrying on the work of in
struction.
A problem that has been with US
all the year is that commonly known
as playing hockey" 1t was the hope
Of the teachers that the new law of
compulsory attendance would take
care of this matter. In the absence
of a regularly appointed attendance
officer, however, it did not. The usual
result has followed, and especially
with the advent of real spring time
weather that has tendency to lure
pupils away from the school room on
fishing expeditions and other outdoor
excursions. Games of marbles and
| baseball are more attractive than les
sons.
! Now this matter that it seems
neither parents nor teachers can
handle alone 1t is exceedingly detri-
mental to a child's progress in his
school work to be dropping out of the
class rooms at will. The lessons and
class room work of the teacher thus
missed can never be entirely made up.
Yesterday afternoon eight pupils
from one room walked off at the noon
hour and did not return. This is but
a single instance that illustrates the
difficulty Every effort is made to keep
parents notified of any such cases but
unless some penalty is inflicted al
home for the offense the punishment
imposed by the teacher in the school

Farmer wants to borrow money to run
his farm, all he has to do is to go to
a farm loan bank and get the neces-
sary money on long time and at low

you appreciate what Mr.. Fletcher has
done for you? Sure you do. He is your
