A BIG, BIG WORLD
BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE.

It's big. big world we're living in,
This world of ours today,
For getting and for giving in,
For service and for pay;
For you and me and all of US,
For great of us and small of us:
Each one must heed the call of US
For service and for pay.'
Aye, though the pay be gain or loss,
Or the service be by crown or cross,
It's a big, big job ahead of us,
This job of every day.
And may 1t well be said of us,
As the ages roll away,
We gave the every part of US,
The hand and head and heart Of us.
The travail. toll and art of us
To this. our job today!
And which one then would care to
most?
He did the least and grabbed the
most
It's big. big day that's facing us,
This day and every day,
And the Great Power. which Is plac-
ing us
And asks our Yea and Nay,
Mayhap He makes this test of us
To prove the pith and. zest of us
And asks the most and best Of us
This day and every day
And who would shfrk the >upward
trail
To palter. falter, and toafaIp?

sMan without a Country"
By DMc

The pathetic story Of THE Man
Without a Country" was recalled at
. meeting of the executive board of
the National Press Committee for
District of Columbia Suffrage at head
quarters in the Franklin National
Bank Building. The case was re-
lated Of a venerable Washingtonian
who has six sons, all born here and
ranging in age from "a to a. years.
who have never exercised their con-
stitutional right to vote. They were
all born in the period that Washing
ton has been voteless.
My sons are indeed men without
a country" the old father said. They
are taxed without representation and
should they wish to participate in an
election as American citizens they
would have to move into a State and
live there the required period to es-
tablish a voting right This they
cannot do without great sacrifice as
their business affairs and home and
social ties are all here. In this re-
spect they are very much in the class
with natives of foreign countries who
have been naturalized. only the lat
ter, should they return TO their ma
tive countries would find some form
of suffrage there, following the de-
cision rendered as the outcome of the
recent war, to make the world safe
for democracy 1t is unthinkable that
the trainers Of our great constitution
purposed that several hundred thou
sands OF intelligent, American-bor
men should be deprived of the great
est Of all boons-the ballot.
And to think that there are many
thousands Of young and middle aged
men in the District of Columbia who
are similarly deprived of their po-
litical rights because they were born
at the Capital of their nation" LEE
LAMAR ROBINSON commented
"And all are good citizens and true,
and not guilty OF disloyalty to their
country and its flag as was The Man
without a Country"

was employing the right term in re-
ferring to Westinghouse. He called
them citizens" There are others
who say they are but residents"
