PRAGUE FEARS
PLAGUE FOR LACK
OF COMMON SOAP
By ZOE BECKLEY.

y. Il. A. Correspondent Cable.
Prague. Marcl, 1S.-For lack o!
soap thousands Of children will die
here in the spring.
I'VE have used our fat for food,
said Alice AIasaryk. daughter Of the
president of the Czech republic and
Red Cross head. today, UNLESS Amer
ica sends us soap or fat to make il
from. our children will perish when
typhus comes with the warmer wealth
err
I BABIES DIE OF FILTH
There is not enough soap TO wash
the linen in the hospitals. Babies die
here every day from simple lack, OF
cleanliness. Pestilence and dirt 81
hand in hand. The great typhus car.
rier is the louise and soap Is indispens
able in delousing work.
The funds America has sent here are
now being used to buy food and soap
Both are essential but the Red Cross
workers say that of the two the soap j..
the more important. There are 5Of
children in one hospital alone who will
die Of tuberculosis unless they can be
removed to clean surroundings at once.
-.s-,, LOSE SELF-RESPECT
The inability Of the people to keer
clean is making them lose their SELF
respect: CzechO- Slovakia only asks
temporary aid. With chance she
will climb to her feet and take hei
place with the nations.
That chance, must include a fair
start for her children and that they
cannot have if their little bodies are
too crumpled and twisted by starva
tion and racked by disease.

JUDGE HANLEY

Mandan, March 19.-Judge ]. NJ
Hanley left Thursday for Washingt0.l
to attend a. meeting of the executive
committee of the American legion
which meets at the capital to conf r
with congress on the proposed soldie,s
compensation measures. :, There are
dozen jor more such measures up
before congress and the executive
committee has been called to coniei
TO ascertain so far as possible the
sentiment of legion members on the
subject
Judge Hanley had sent out to tine
various posts in North Dakota in
Quiries as to the sentiment OF the 10
cal posts, and he has been receiving
many replies, most Of which expressed
a desire that he use his own judgment
in the matter.
One of the measures before congress-
and that given most attention Is the
proposal to make compensation in the
sum of $50 a month for the time "
the service. The majority of the mem.
Ders do not like the term bonus, as !
implies a gift, and as has been very
aptly expressed by some of the leading
members in the nation the boys VINO
went into the army did so as a patrio-
tic service.
There is a general feeling however
that the boys who left home, gave up
good positions and received the ms
agre pay of the soldier should be en-
titled to some additional compensa.

sacrifices made. Those who remained
at home were paid high wages, and
that there should be some recognition
by the government in part for this
financial sacrifice is very generally
conceded
The action by congress will doubt

recommendations of the executive
committee consisting of one member

pieces of silver All are killed or
captured. Deering escapes. He set
out to avenge himself. He meets the

realization that there are good men
