THE REASON WHY.

EIAIwAHEANs noticed no doubt thai Secretary Mel
~ lon dealt gently with the late Wilson regime when
be warned Congress against the adoption Of he bonus
bin at this time
Not word Of OF the previous administration Is
found his letter to Senator Frelnshnysen which
has all the weight OF an onicial Communication
Yet the cold hard truth Of the matter is that the Wilson
administration wrecked the Treasury and saddlsd the
country with debt colossal that the passage Of the
bonus bin at this time carrying estimated five billion
dollars would complete the financial undoing Of the
United States Government and deal a blow TO business
which would make its complete recovery doubtful for
years to come.
IT has been estimated That rhe Democratic party IN rs
conduct Of the wantony wasted several billions Of
dollars-some authorities place nigh eight ten
bnons-and those obligations sti 10 be met by the
taxpayers Of the country, among whom the veterans
themselves are counted
We can't our cake and have H. too The Democrats
the cost-pus grafters have eaten The cake what
crumbs are left should be given to the disabled soldiers
Our first Of course, should be to make flll
provision for the needs Of disabled veterans" declares
Secretary Mellon. 'To that object the country pledged
to give without stint Of its resources"
But sweeping plan for cash payments to ahle-bodec
ex-sodiers and sailors" adopted at time when the Fed
eral Treasury is loaded to the pmsol mark with Demo
cratic obligations which must be met would be to maxi
meroenares Of sodiery for service that per
formed the highest duty OF citizenship and sacrifice
that be measured IN terms of money"

Borah, An Honest Statesman
Rrom the New York Heraldo

Some Of the American people are
for a soldier bonus. some of the
American people are against a SOL
der bonus. but If the New York Her
aid knows anything about our ma
tional character and conscience all
the American people. are for honest,
fearless, rugged conduct in high
public life
william e Borah knows that the
present bonus measure is a legisla-
tive fraud upon the soldiers them
selves. and he stands up on the hoor
of the United States Senate and says
so. Senator Borah knows that re-
committing the bill until next jan
uary, when there viii be no posi-
bility Of paying the money then or
soon thereafter. is an elechoneering
swindle. and he says so. Senator
Borah knows that voting in Con-
gress TO keep alive a measure which
those voting for it hope Is dead is
political cowardice. and he says so.
When members Of the United
States Congress supposed to have
self-respect and obviously seeking
good regulations are ducking and
lodging and fleeing the square issue
OF the bonus scheme as the rankest
poltroon on the battlefield would not
run away from showers of lead. these

PRACTICAL ADVICE

T n refreshing to read the views expressed by Professor
Albert Bushnell Hart Of Harvard University. before
the National Education Association In session at Des
ones He declares that institutions Of learning piao
ing too urruh emphasis the study Of ancient Ian
g71sres and not enough ~on the industrial problems
which the students win after leaving school
Professor Hart recalls that the ancient Greeks them
selves never studied ancient languages but they were
considered most intelligent people. he would have all
foreign language schools abolished and favors the sd-
mittance Of foreigners only upon condition that they
agree 10 learn English in three years
The recommendations Of Professor Hart intimately
assocated with the Ameroanizaton movement thst rs
receiving wide support in schools.
The study Of foreign language necessarily means also
sympathetic study Of the history, customs and govern
ment OF the country Of which is the native tonsus
Similarly stidy Of English ceners attention Amer
lean history and government that is essential in the
education Of the foreign immigrant.
Many persons feel that time spent IN acquiring a
knowledge Of foreign language loss Of energy
that might better devoted 10 study Of American ira
ditons, economies and form Of government There are
millions however, who do not share that view.
Language study might well be left optional for those
students to master English and devote full courses Of
study to the other subjects that to make up the ed-
cational equipment OF real American.
The impetus given TO Americanization by the world
must not be permitted to lag, and the courses OF
instruction schools and colleges should be altered
so that every student shall be graduated securely
grounded IN the fundamentals necessary in the good
American citizen

RecOn1n1itted
Prom the New York Tribune-)

The Senate needed President Har-
dings warning on the soldiers bonus
bill and recommftted that measure
yesterday without instructions Mr..
Kenyon tried to attach 10 the motion
a provision that the bill should be
reported out again next January.
That would have meant holding the
measure in suspense over the head
of this Congress and renewing the
fight for its passage at the regular
session. But the conditions in the
Treasury which make provision for
a cash bonus inadvisable at this time
WIN continue through the life of
this Congress. Everybody knows
that the fiscal situation cannot be
stabilized until the tax laws are re-
vised and the floating and immedi-
ately maturing war debt Is funded
or otherwise taken care Of
The president had the courage
and candor to say that economic re-
adjustment ought to precede recog-
milton of the services Of uninjured
soldiers. The latter is a duty Of
peace, not OF war. and we are not yet
economically back on a peace basis.

an experiment would consist IN re-
moving certain psychological pref

That hostile psychology Is Mus
trated by Chesterton in his latest
book. "The New Jerusalem" where
he develops the familiar thesis that
the Jew, with all his conceded gifts

there are no Jewish peasants or
ditch diggers, and therefore he be
lieves in Zionisn, for the sake Of the
Jew. It does not matter if zionisn
fails. If only it does produce Jewish
diggers of the soil, hewers of wood
and drawers of water.
