BIG BUSINESS AND SOLDIERS

BIG BUSINESS AND SOLDIERS
Big business, it seems, is opposed to the granting
= Of a bonus to ex-solders-the men who made it
possible for the Big Business ito remain Big Business
and to become even bigger.
But not all of our Big Business men are opposed
to the bonus. few appear to retain spark of
gratitude in their composition.
Big Business cleaned up mountains of profits in
fat contracts while soldiers sacrfaced their
comfortable salaries in order to do the fighting.
TO put it clearly on financial basis Ito be per-
fecty and ill1ininatingy blunt-the soldier went to
war and lost money because he went. The Big Bnsi-
ness men stayed at home and made money-much
money
The soldier is financially the loser from the war;
Big Business is the tremendously the gamer
Yet Big Business is opposed to simple act of
Justice toward the who risked their all for their
country while Big Business risked nothing and be-
came bigger.
But if the soldiers bonus is defeated through the
secret Influence Of Big Business, there still remains
one possible means Of justice When the next war
breaks let the government draft the men in control of
Big Business into the army and send them away to
do the fighting while others remain at home and get
rich. ""Tsa Ia

government OF Mexico, which is well worth reading
Mr. Frizieres speaks with full authority; and all his
assertions will be made good by the revolutionary
government.
IT has taken long time to get to the bottom facts
about the Sender & Huntington site for federal
building and what queered it; but the cat is out of

"The s@cred COW" got hell of jolt this morning
remarked well known gentleman after reading the
"Oasis" yesterday.
The man who comes out into the open with ham,
nler is Tar less dangerous to community than one
who sneaks up behind and stabs in the back with
knife
There is one advantage in being only naturaliz-
ed American citizen. One doesn't have to sacrifice
himself on the presidential altar of his country.
Women will all vote in these United States even
tually Then those public men who opposed equal
suffrage will be seeking cyclone cellars.
The Carranza cause in Mexico seems topping
and ready to fall through.
A local Solomon asserts that philosopher learns

wise man goes out and gets them
