RED CROSS EXTENDS
RELIEF TO POLAND

More than $5,OOOOOO has been spent
by the American Red Cross in aiding
the stricken people of Poland. The
organization has nursed the sick, fed
the starving, clothed the naked, shelter
ed the homeless, schooled the children
and cared for the orphans there. It has
conducted a relentless fight against
typhus, cholera and other terrible dis
eases. So today millions Of men and
women in that resurrected nation
speak in grateful appreciation Of '"The
Greatest Mother in the World"
Nearly 200 American Red Cross
workers are now engaged in relief ac-
tivities In Poland. Four large relief
bases are in operation and eleven mo-
bile units are in the field. During the
last twelve months this organization
was largely Instrumental in the re-es-
tablishment Of million refugees at q
cost for general relief of more than
81 600, 900. Last winter One-ha1f mil
lion war orphans were aided material
ly, and since then a series Of large or
phanages have been established to give
them permanent care.
But for American Red Cross aid, Of
hcials Of Poland declared recently, mil
lions Of people in that. country would
have perished of disease, exposure or
starvation the last eighteen months
And the work there must be kept up
for another year.

Borrowed Money Prosperity

Many reports, special and general, have been
coming across from wartorn Europe which
agree in the representation of an all-prevalent
after the e-war> spree of gayety and spending. 10
quote from one report as made by United
States government representative-Coi James
G. Steese of the general staff United States
army, returning from a special mission to
Europe says of what may be called the psychic
situation in. Belgium: "The people are express
ing themselves in unprecedented gayety. The
rambling houses in Ostend are crowded day
and night with throngs that do not seem to
know what to do with their money" AS to
Brussels: This city, always gay place, now
presents the aspect of permanent carnival,
with overcrowded cafes at all times OF the day
and night, and a population possessed of a
dancing craze that makes New York look like
. seminary"
Various reports of similar tenor have been
coming from London and Paris. There is GER
tainly . contrast between the picturrs which the
relief commissions are giving Of a starved and
ragged Europe, and these other pictures of a
Europe going the giddy whirl with no apparent
concern about hard work and frugality as a
means of restoring the ruin OF war. Both pic
tires, doubtless, are correct. There is the gay
and reckless Europe, with surplus in its pockets
which it is spending, and there is the submerged
oae-6fth about whose welfare the prosperous
element is not as much concerned as it should
~. The American people generally are willing
- lend hand to the saving of the war-crushed
ellment beyond the Atlantic, but Europe must
show some concern about saving itseif-sav-
~ ite oyAs submerged contingents.-Baltmore

In the Third Missouri.

Much joy swirls around the soul of Chair
man Cummings as he contempates the returns
from the Third Missouri congressional district.
A democrat has been elected to succeed John
Willis Alexander, who has gone into the cab
met. This would be vastly important, were it
not for the fact that this district has been demo-
cratic since before the Civil War, and never
has wavered for an instant in its devotion to
the habit of voting the ticket. If the chairman
of the partys national committee can gain in
spiration from the fact that the heritage of gen.
eratons still finds expression in the election of
popular democrat to congress, no effort will
be made to interfere with his exuberance. The
Third Missouri, boastfully calling itself the
SHOW me" district, provides pleasant place
for democratic eyes to rest relieving them of
the strain brought about by certain proceed
ings in Oklahoma, Kentucky and elsewhere
But it will take more than that to give the old
timers any especial buoyancy in the approach
to San Francisco.

Pensions Extraordinary

Get cabinet position in Spain and you will
receive pension of 1000 pesetas a year for
the rest of your life. If you serve only one day
your pension is secure for all the rest of your
years. Cabinets change rapidly in Spain, and
there are now about $50 ex-ministers on the
pension roll
1t has been hard to persuade Spanish cabi-
net to do away with this evil-just about as
hard as it has been to persuade an American
congress to abolish the mileage graft But at
lastsa cabinet of altruistic tendencies has been
set up at Madrid, and it proposes to wipe, out
all ministerial pensions Not only for them
selves and their successors but also for their
predecessors who have been the beneficiaries
of the system, they seek to eliminate the pen
sions. An ex-minister will, if the court approves
the measure, be compelled to work for living
just like anyone else.
No wonder there is unrest in Spain, if the
statute books contain many laws like this. What
would we say in this country if all our ex-mem-
bers of presidential cabinets were knocking
down l,4OO year for nothing.-Cleveland
Plain Dealer

Constitution and Citizenship.

The American Security league is moving to
secure the teaching of the constitution in the
schools. Its program is divided into two parts,
and is thus outlined:
l. Study and discussion of the principles
and spirit of the American Constitution and
government through the college and univer-
slty forums and debating societies.
Z. Advocacy OF required course on the
Constitution and American form of govern
ment in all colleges and universities.
This is put forward as practical method for
combating bolshevism and similar doctrines
that are subversive or destructive of constitu-
tional government. 1t may be doubted, though,
if the scope of the plan is sufficiently COM
prehensive. If all citizens had the advantage
of college training, the issue would be met, but
all do not The common schools of the country
and in them some better means for instruction
than now prevails should be found.
"Civics" and political Economy" sound
formidable, but they really hold the future of
the countrys institutions and if the schools are
to be what they should be, the fountain from
which will flow the undiluted and pure stream
of patriotic citizenship, they must be not only
guarded from the faint that threatens, but made
more effective in their operation. This country
too long has left to the soap-box and the back
room the business of teaching the science of
government. Instruction in the spirit of the
constitution and the form of the American gov
ernment should be given as early as possible in
the schools, and the soviet idea will soon disap-
pear before the enduring principles on which
our institutions rest.

Silent Woes Woes

London has been the center of some re-
markable legal situations, but it is safe to de-
clare that none of these has been more pic
turesque or more incredible than the recent di-
vorce suit of couple who lived in complete
conjugal silence for four years. At the end of
that period the lady in question decided that
she had enough of it. Her petition was dis
missed, but to date there has been no recon-
citation. An attentive public can now settle
down to the prolonged delight of waiting for
one of them to break the silence.
The popular theory that women cannot re-
main silent is given hard blow, but not neces-
sarily fatal one, by the fact that the wife was
able to hold her tongue as long as she did.
When she did come out of the silence she de-
clared that the lack of conversation had
wrecked her life" That she kept on doing
the mans cooking, making his bed, and attend
ing to the housework shows that hope was not
dead within her. But the silent gentlemans
tenacity did not wear out. 1t is signicant that
the cable dispatches carrying the story quoted
the woman at considerable length, but the
noiseless husband apparently made no COM
ment-Philadelphia Press.

Canadian Railroads.

Omaha, Neb, Feb. 13.-Te the
Editor of The Bee: Present events of
Canadian railroads prompts me
to remind the readers of The Bee of
the opposition shown the so-called
Bagdad railroad by President Will
son. He turned all batteries against
this question when at labor con.
vention some time ago at Buffalo,
N. Y. But let us look at our front
door and see what is going on and
We will find that the Canadian
Northern owns PIT miles In the good
old U. s. A. (Minnesota). The Grand
Trunk owns S12 miles in Michigan,
Illinois, etc, and the Canadian Pa
cific only 1853 in Michigan, Illinois,
Minnesota. Idaho, Washington and
three other states.
The Canadian government has al
ready possession of the Grand Trunk
and some morning before breakfast
1t will swallow the Canadian Pacific,
and then we will find ourselves con-
fronted with a foreign government
owned railroad which is very bad
affair.
Do you hear now Of any protest
coming from our great president? :?

the Bagdad railroad, and doesn't
seem to take any interest in this
condition at our front door.
Many readers of this letter may
say: "Well this affair don't interest
u.s." but I think it does.
Considerable American-made goods
are shipped on these roads to Mon
treal and Quebec and from there to
Liverpool, ETC., instead of to New
York. 1t goes only to show what
commercial supremacy means. I am
not a stockholder in any United
States railroad company, but I
object in having any foreign govern
ment owning railroads on United
States soil. 1 may state that the
above conditions are another step of
world dominion as Senator Reed
said five or six days ago. when he
spoke in regard to England's poll
cies. I admire. the senator from
Missouri for his stand in behalf of
United States interest even if it is
necessary to twist the British lions
tail. .-..-- ---

F1UME BELONGS TO EUROPE.

Something of the sensational quality is taken
out of the startling tale sent over from Paris by
the announcement from Washington that the
purpose of President Wilson in relation to the
Adriatic settlement had been overstated by lie
Temps. Home advices are to the effect that
the president has merely expressed the inten-
ton of Withdrawing from this affair entirely un-
less his plans are adopted. 1t would have been
better for the cause of peace if he had reached
this conclusion year ago. His decision in the
Fiume affair mistake, however we'll in
tentioned it might have been 1t was not then
approved by the Allies, but was accepted as
condition necessary to going ahead with the
peace negotiations D'Annunzio's coup upset the
Wilson plan, and a most ticklish proposition
was put before the supreme council. .
If the establishment of Fiume as free city
will satisfy Italian aspirations and afford Jugo-
Savia window on the Adriatic," thereby
avoiding a clash at arms and this is what
Lloyd George and Clemenceau long worked for,
the outcome would appear happy. Italy has
made its position plain; to enforce the Wilson
award means war. To grant the entire Italian
demand would goad the Jugo-Slavs to battle,
now or in the near future. A compromise, such
as has been outlined by the supreme council,
therefore is not only expedient, but the only
way to avoid another little war in Europe.
- Above all, Fiume is an affair of Europe
Americans can we'll afford to leave the adjust
ment of such issues to the Europeans, for so
long as substantial justice is done the national
rights of none are infringed, and war that
would affect us in our external relations is
averted, we can sustain the settlement. Just
as we insist that the Monroe Doctrine must be
fully regarded by Europe, so should we respect
the implied extension of that principle to
politics and policies pertaining there.
We are interested as neighbors, but must
not allow that friendly concern to draw us into
position we can not maintain And it may
be that Mr.. Wilson's withdrawal from the
Fiume muddle is the wisest thing he has done
since the armistce was signed.
