VIEW MARKERS FOR HIGHWAYS.
yellow Arrows to Show How to Get
Around Construction Areas OF
Road Work.

DetOur signs, yellow arrows with
instructions in black, are to guide
users Of Iowa highways, around OBJ
suructions or construction work on
primary and secondary road systems.
The Iowa Highway Commission
has adopted standard tyne of de-
tour signs and every engineer in
charge of construction or mainten,
ance work which seriously impedes
or ObstructS traffic must see that not
only a we'll maintained detour is
provided but that signs are erected
to guide and protect highways users.
TOO little attention has been paid in
the past to the convenience Of the
users of the highways where con-
struction or maintenance work has
been in progress. Not infrequently
travellers have been suddenly con-
trcnted by impossible construction
and have been compelled to turn
back and make complete detours Of
several miles to get around the OBJ
strangers not familiar with the
roads, the problem OF finding a way
around Instructions become a seri-
Gus matter The Commission is
anxious this year to avoid all cause
for complaints in regard to impass
able detourS where construction
work is in progress.
The detOur signs are to be l1X2S
inches in dimension and are to be
printed with the arrow in yellow up
on a black background. The word
'detour" will be at the top and the
bar OF the arrow will carry instruc-
ton which the engineer may see fit
to provide.

RESERVE ACT SAVED COUNTRY

Without 1t, War Would Have Bank

Senator King,

That the first six months Of the
war would have bankrupted the
United States in credit and money
had it not been for the financial
policy inaugurated under the FEEDER
al Reserve act and supplementary
King of Utah.
Replying to incidental criticisms
Of the currency law by Senator, Nc
Cumber during a senate debate,
Senator King showed that one OF
the first things attempted by the
democratic party when it came into
power was the enactment of cur
lacking under republican leadership.

and war, and the country's finances
are now stabilized as they never
have been in history.
Has the Senator adyocated its

act or has offered amendments of a
vital or important character to that
great and constructive measure. I
have wondered what would have
been the result if the Federal Re-

statute BOOKS ana II we ndu Hdu "
the statute books only the financial
legislation that we found there
when the democratic party came in
to power under the first admnistra-
ton of Woodrow Wilson.
"Why if it had not been for the
financial policies Of the democratic
party which have been crystalized
into law under the splendid leader
ship of Woodrow Wilson, our coun-
try would have been bankrupted. SO
far as credit and money were con-
cerned, within the first six months
of the war
Senator King reviewed the, his
tory of financial legislation, the in
adequacy of the temporary measure
known as the Aldrich Vreeland bill
and the failure of the senate under
the leadership of Senator Aldrich to
enact comprehensive currency legis-
lation that would meet every con-
dition, and called attention to the
number of panics under the old fis-
cal policy fastened upon the coun-
try by the republican party, Con,

the republicans to insert plank in
their Chicago platform calling for
the repeal of the Federal Reserve
act, declaring he would delight to
see such an issue presented to the
people.

Placing School Boys ON Farms.

Realizing that the food problem
/ today is even more serious than 1t
was during the recent war, and that
unless we have more production,
the people OF this country will face
domestic bread lines, The Chicago
Herald and Examiner has opened a
bureau in the Hearst Building in
Chicago, that will cooperate with
! the various school and agricultural
authorities, and place on farms, dur
ing the, coming summer, as many
over as is possible to obtain In ad-
dition. the bureau will conduct a
vigorous campaign to Immediately
| provide farmers with experienced
The bureaus plan of action is
worked out three years ago by Dudley
Grant Hays, director Of school extern
sion of the Board Of Education. At
that time over 700 Chicago school
boys spent the greater part OF the
summer on farms, in twenty-nlne
states and three Canadian provinces.
At that time the problem was to pro-
duce food for the peoples in foreign
countries. The. boys were too young
to 90 to war, but they were not too
Young to do their bit" at home,
that we might be in position to
send large consl2nments OF Ioou "
The need for boys and men, too,
to do their bit is just as urgent
today. We are not recruiting sol,
diesS; to fight a foreign enemy, but
are preparing to fight domestic
nemy-hunSer.
School board officials warmly en-
dorse dis new bureau, as do VI yatI ,,a5
societies. for it is realized that not
only will it aid, in slight measure,
in meeting the demands for farmers
for more help, but summer spent
out of doors Will be Of il1estimable
benefit to the boys themselves
Any school Boy over It, years ESQ, OF
experience, has a good chance OF be-
ing eligible The Chicago Hera',,,
and Examiners bureau will make all
preliminary investigation, relative to
physical fitness; as to the desirable
ity of the place offered, and as to
wages. 1t is by no means a hap
hazard plan. but one that has ana
course there Will be no charge for
this service.
Direct cooperation will be given BY
the Board Of Education, and viii
probably include release OF those
students eligible for farm work, be,
fore the formal close OF ttlo SCHooI
season, and an extension of the re-
turning date beyond the formal open
ing of the Fall term And too. this
will be an ideal way for school boys
to solve their vacation problem
both from a health and finanCla!
standpoint
Farmers of course are chiefly, in
need of experienced help, but they
will be very glad to receive what aid
they can, and it is hoped that the
Herald and Examiners plan will de-
velop into clearing house, SO to
speak, for the farmers to get as
much experienced help as possible
There are many adults that coul!r,
be induced to return to the farm, II
the inducements were alluring.
Those interested in the farm bureau
idea are advised that free information
may be obtained direct from the

Great Values In Farm Land

1t is now understood that satisfac-
tory arrangements are being made
whereby the farmers near Perkintown
will be reimbursed by the Government
for the full value of the land taken
over for the Ordnance Depot. The eff
forts of a brokerage firm to collect it
for them, for a heavy commission was
apparently frustrated by the officials
of this district, who would only deal
with the farmers direct.-Paulsboro
Herald.
But then the barristers who can per-
suade a jury of the wonderful values
of farm land may get half the increase
over the allowance.
To prove how James McGrane, one
of the owners who was so distressed by
having his farm taken from him we
would say that the editor of the Penni
Grove Record sold him two farms, one
of 70 acres and one of 80 acres, fol
$4,000, at a price less than they were
taxed at, either one of which wa
worth more than the one the Govern
ment took from him for which h
asked $4,000 and was allowed S16,80O

Can't Afford Idleness

About 100 carpenters and half as
many %joiners returned to work at the
New York Shipyard, Camden, Satur-
day, according to officials of the COM
pany. They were men who had been
idle for a week, along with many hun
dred others, because the company had
refused to grant shorter hours and
higher wages. The men said that they
had lost from $40 to $50 each during
the week, their families would suffer
and they must work.

Jones shipyard, Gloucester, was fur

Presidents Mind Rings Clear

Many believe President Woodrow
Wilson a sick man. He nearly became
a martyr to humanity last September
when he became physically exhausted
trying to teach the people the import
ance of ratifying the Peace Treaty.
While he is conserving his strength
for most important business yet all he
has written shows that his mind is as
clear as the Liberty Bell when it pro-
claimed freedom for all the people.
His last letter is like lightning during
a storm of political intrigue carried
on by pigmy minds of peanut politi-
clans. Amidst the many conflicting
pusillanimous issues President Will
sons clear mind portrays like light
ming in a stormy sky that the para
mount issue is to finish the World
War by ratifying the Peace Treaty and
backing up the League of Nations
which is formulated to make Germany
pay her obligations enumerated there
in.
Failure to do so means that Ger
many will win the peace. Are you on
the side of the Allies or the side of
Germany ?

The Bishops Oppose War

The board of thirty-four Bishops of
the Methodist Episcopal Church, the
greatest spiritual force in the world,
submitted their quadrennial report to
the General Conference in DesMoines,
Iowa, May LIST. In its bill of partic-
ulars, the address says:
"Of course the Church will stand in
u~nfiinching, uncompromising denun-
citation of all violations of law; against
all murderous child labor. all deadly
tenements, all foul sweatshops, all I'M
safe mines, all starvation wages, all
excessive hours for those who toll, all
profligate luxuries, all standards of
wage and life below the living stand
ard, all unfairness and harshness of
conditions, all brutal exactions,
whether of the employer or union, all
overlordships whether of capital or
labor, all Goddess ~proiteering, whether
in food, clothing profits or wages;
against all inhumanity, injustice and
blighting inequality; against all class
minded men who demand special priv
illeges or exceptions on behalf of their
class"
Surely" says the address in its
Ie1GIcHCG w WOlIo PCoNCt We AiiNoe
take strong grounds against any more
wars and against war itself as a
method Of settling difficulties. Sure
ly we must commit our Church to the
principle that international troubles
shall be adjusted by counsel and ar
bitration, not by guns and the slaugh.
ter of men; that the nations of the
world be bound together by a working
covenant of peace; that however il
shall be brought about such compro
mise should be made between thu
President of the United States ant
the Senate of the United States a
shall secure a real and effective Leagu.
of Nations, in which the United State
shall have a proper and honorable
place among the nations of the worl'
in preserving the peace and bearin,
the burdens of the world; that narroy
nationalism shall not set itself agains
world unity and a true international
ism; that we shall unite with tn
Churches of all countries that are eve
now seeking to promote ~internations
friendship and good will; that wea
nations shall not be the prey of tn
stronger ones; and that all nation
shall reduce ornaments to a minimum
consistent with safety, and that tn
vast expenditures for fighting pun
poses shall be used for educational IL
dustrial and domestic welfare instead.
The Bishops opinion on the peac
covenant and League of Nations
good enough for a Wilson Democrat
platform. Every man who believes j
and contributes to the foreign mission
ary fund is a Christian Internationa
list.

Much has been said about Ameri-

need is to Americanize native born
Americans in Congress. They should
all read the first resolution enacted by
the First Continental Congress and
learn what the twentieth clause in the
Declaration of independence has refer
ence to and means. Look it up and
see if you understand it. Also notice
that the charges made in the Declara-

ROOSEVELT PUTS
FOES IN CLASSES
Declares Ten Kinds Of Voters
Will Cast Ballots for
Harding.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, October 9 '(by
the Associated Press).-America must
join the existing league Of nations or
be prepared to arm to the teeth"
Franklin D. Roosevelt, democratic
vice presidential nominee, declared in
two addresses here tonight. Any
other alternative is impossible, he
added, because thirty-one nations al
ready in the league will not consent
to abandon it and experiment with
some untried plan.
Mr. Roosevelt spoke this noon at
Sedalia, Mo-; later he climbed into an
aeroplane, piloted by TEX" La Crone,
a former Army aviator, and flew to
Kansas City.
In his addresses here he classified
ten kinds of voters who, he said Il
hope will this year vote for MIR.
Harding" They are:
Il. Those who believe that it is
more important to elect republican
ofticeholders than to secure the peace
of the world.
"2. Those who vote the republican
ticket because their grandfathers did.
90. Those who want to get even
with President Wilson, who is not
running for the presidency this year.
~. Those who believe we ought
never to have entered the war to
preserve civilization.
'"5. Those who put the interests of
some foreign nation before the inter-
ests of the United States.
sc. Those who expect to make large
financial gain through the recognition
of their special interests by re-
dictionary President.
-. Those who want any old kind
of a change. without stopping to
observe whether they are jumping
into the frying pan or into the fire.
IS. Those who believe we should at
once start a war against Mexico in
order to 'civilize' it in the interests
of American oil and mining COM
panies.
80. Those who read republican pa
pers only and accept as gospel truth
partisan editorial and news columns.
40. Those who believe that the flag
is the personal property of republic
cans and that no democrat ever was
good American"

did not appear to be true l say it now
because it does appear to be true If
we can collect the money necessary for
the intensive publicity required to pre-
sent the truth the appearance will be-

II say this because the republicans,
from their candidate down-as judged
by his Kansas City speech-intend to
cast to the winds even the few consid-
erations of truth which have bound their

the entire republican campaign is a song
OF hate. We want to be through with
