NOT DISORDERLY
TO KICK AGAINST
TAXI BILL, RULED

According to a ruling in Moline
police court today by Magistrate
Frank Gustafson, complaining
about a taxi bill. even though the
bill be a reasonable one, is not dis
orderly conduct. Thomas Paige
(colored) of East Moline was the
passenger and defendant. He rode
from East Moline to Rock Island
and back to Moline. But as Paige
was not ready at 2 this morning,
the time which he had asked the
driver to have the taxi in East Mo-
line, the driver had to make two
trips to East Moline. AS the result
Of this extra trip. the bill was
$3.50. Paige wouldn't pay it when
Wesley Giles, taxi driver for George
Hart, tried to collect the bill. A
call was sent in to the police and
Paige was arrested.
WAS he noisy? Did he create a
public Disturbance" asked the
magistrate.
The only neutral witness an
swered that Paige merely argued
and complained about the bill.
"A man has a. right to kick
against q taxi bill,' ruled the mag
istrate.
Paige was happy and a smile
broke out over his countenance.
But the complainant was also more
or less pacified when the magis-
trate turned to Paige and said:
However, your bill was reason
able and l would advise you to pay
it. Four dollars and a half isn't
too much for two trips to East Mo-
line and one to Rock Island"
Paige arranged to pay.

ervations or conditions upon which
America would be welcomed into
the League of Nations. He is mere
ly attempting to bring about a ia
vorable atmosphere in which the
facts about Europe can be examin-
ed without the passion Of partisan
politics or the intruction Of per-
sonalities. In a nutshell, he is en-
deavoring to lift the questions Of
foreign policy which mean life and
death to France out Of the mire of
partisanship into which they sank
in the two years after the war and
bring the problems back into the
realm OF friendship and good feel
ing which prompted America to
come to the aid Of France in 1917.
Hopes for Entente.
The former premier is himself
studiously avoiding any appearance
of partisanship. While in Wash
ington, for instance, he calls on
former President Wilson the same
day as he talks with Senator Lodge.
But what he is hoping to accomp-
lish after all is an entente between
France and the Hafding admins
tration as a whole. Mr.. Viviani
does not speak English but has with
him some good interpreters. He is
legislator of experience and a
splendid lawyer and uegotiator.
Twice he has been premier of
France and he is considered more
moderate in his views on what
should sbe done to make Germany
behave than are most French states
men today.
While the Knox resolution by
which separate peace might have
been declared is still on the calen-
dar, the French mission will be
pleased if the single effect Of its
journey to the United States is the
side-tracking of that resolution.
The withdrawal Of Americas forces
from the Rhine would be a severe
blow to France. The French do not
mind if onl va garrison Of few
thousand men Is maintained. What
they wants the American nag and
all that it stands for. II America
can give no affirmative aid to the
allies at this time as against Ger
many, the French hope that at
least the United States will not
take a negative attitude and thus
help Germany. The former premier
will not present concrete formulas
during his visit here. He will only
try to bring about q better under
standing OF Frances problems, hop
ing that the moral influence of the
United States will still be used
alongside her comrades in arms and
not independently Of her associates
in, any separate peace with Ger
many. The rest, the French believe,
namely, the association Of nations
or revision Of the league covenant.
will take care Of itsaR In due time.
THE problem Of the moment is al
lied solidarity until at least the re-
paration is settled.

4 Distinct surprise was given the
members Of tho Moline board Of,
police and fire commissioners when
only - men appeared yesterday for
the examination held Ill day. In
view OF the unemployment situa-
ton, this small number was entire
" unlocked for.
The examination notices were
published weeks in advance. There
had been many inquiries, Sue
cess in the examination meant a
position on the police or fire de-
partment for q number OF men.
Frank Walker, chairman Of the
board, said today that the appear
ance of SO few men is mystery TO
him. He had expected, he said,
that the board would be swamped
with applicants for positions.
A small percentage Of the twelve
who did appear, were successful.
Two police appointments and one
fire appointment will be made. An
n0uncement Of winners will be
made Monday.

A DEBT WE OWE

The soldiers bonus bill seems to be on the
way to passage. There is no good reason, except
the present Strengthened circumstances of the
government, why the soldiers, who were drafted
into the service of the country, should not have
just reward Immediately. It is a debt the country
I'VE them, and one which it will eventually pay.
It is the 81, 800, 0o0, 900 added to the present
enormous indebtedness that staggers, and even
this would not be in the way if the country was
in a normal condition of prosperity. Those sol
diers who are in hospitals and who have been
wounded should receive prompt attention, and
their every need satisfied. They should be the
first first to receive attention, and there is not q
voice that would be raised against it, regardless
sof the financial stringenecN. The strong and
robust can visit, II waiting is necessary !; but
seysa ttihseyy should be made 70 ffselldthat the nation
ssa lrpr the services they. have rendered.

FORD RAISES WAGES ON RAILROAD

FORD RAISES WAGES ON RAILROAD
~" This Henry Ford person is = pestferous
nuisance to those engaged in milking the rail
roads and treasury of the United States, and his
latest exploit is the worst of all, to hear them tell
it. ss
Henry bought the Detroit, Toledo and Iron
ton about a year ago and when he took it over
the road was losing 100000 . month which
Henry has changed to a profit even though re-
ceipts fell off $10O,OO0 per month.
The road has nearly four hundred miles Of
track, employs several hundred workers and
after July LIST the lowest paid employee will re-
ceive not less than Sc per day of eight hours.
That is the thing that makes managers of other
roads see red and cuss Henry all over the lot.
Here they have been bowling for years
about the profiteering, overpaid railroad en-
ploye and demanding that his wages be, cut so
that they may show a profit when along comes
Ford and in less than a year takes a losing read,
doing less business during the hard times than
was done on the road during good times, makes
a profit on that reduced business, and raises
wages just as the Labor board cuts them on
other roads. ~ -
How does he do it? e
Just by r%efraining from the practices Of
those in control of other roads.
Ford owns the D., T. & I. He is not a hired
man put in charge of the road by financjers who
own concerns that sell rails. steel, engines, cars
and other supplies to the roads, neither does he
fake expenses nor resort to bookkeeping to
profits. ,4
He's just a plain, ordinary citizen who
conducts business on the basis of decency and
good judgment.
Never has he been compelled to admit
bribery, false testimony and ~skullduggery be-
fore the Interstate Commerce commission act
ing as investigators into determinations and il
legal and unlawful practices of railroad man.
