wAR F1NANoE. CORPORATION.

The enactment, over the veto of
President Wilson. OF the resolution
reestablishing the War Finance Cor
poration was a striking victory for j.
Skottowe Wanhamai>er and the Amer
fcan Cotton Association Mr.. Wan
namaker was among the first Amer
leans to propose this step and had his
ideas been carried into execution sew
eral months earlier the general COM
plexion Of business in the South would
doubtless have worn a different as
pect at this time. But for the pres
ent little relief can be expected from
this measure, because its administra-
ton will be largely in the hands Of
David F. Houston. secretary of the
treasury. who has vigorously and con-
ststently opposed the reestablish-
ment Of this agency which was de-
signed by congress. not as a war
measure, as claimed by Houston, but
distinctly as q postwar measure, in
tended to aid and stimulate our trans
actions with foreign countries in the
tSAioo ol reorganization
and readjustment.
Congress was almost unanimous in
Its endorsement Of the reestablish-
ment of the corporation, all but five
members of the senate voting to over
ride the veto. and such men as w G..
McAdoo, former secretary OF the
treasury, believed that it would aid
materially in facilitating the foreign
trade in our products, the slowing up
OF which has been to a large extent
responsible for the stagnation of pri-
ces. particularly of cotton. It hardly
seems likely that there was not some
merit in the contention of those who
held out for establishment of the
War Financ Corporation, because they
numbered tCo many men of brains
and patriotism, while the opposition
was limited mainly to Secretary
Houston, who has never manifested a
fritndFness to the agricultural inter-
ests and who has all along manifest
ed a willingness to break the back Of
prices of all agricultural products in
order to lower the cost of living. In
stead Of throttling and parayzing the
business Of farming. which Is the
foundation and source of all of cur
prosperity, the government had much
bettor have concerned itself with the
real profteers and reduced living
costs to the people by squeezing out
some of the ungodly profits obtained
between the producer and consumer.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"DOUGH Boy"
"a. 1920. Western Newspaper Union.)

NF all the names applied to
~ the American soldier during
the world. war-"Yank," Sam
N.Y." Buddy" and the like-the
only one which stood up under
the strain was "doughboy."
Probably they didn't know 1t,
but the reason that the men Of
the A. e. f. accepted the term
aDd answered to 1t without hes
itation, is because doughboy is
the oldest of slang words for
American infantrymen, dating
back 20 the days of the Revolu-
, tion. At this time, following
the custom Of the British army,
each man Of the Colonial army
was served with three or four
cakes of bread day-nour and
water, usually underbaked..
These cakes were known as
"doughboys" and. before the erI
of the war, the men to whom
they were served were called by
the same name.
During the Civil war the ap-
psllatiOn was revived-partly on
account Of the way in which II
had been used during the Rev
olutiyn and also because of the
manner in which the large brass
buttons Of the infantrymen were
ridl"uled. "Thcy're as big as
boiled dumplinss or dough-
cakes" stated one critic. and
the name "doughboy" stuck-to
