To Help Unemployed Ex. Soldiers

10 the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir--We read very much these days re-
sarding the way the Government Is treat
ing the ex-soldiers / agree with the critics
that It is a shame, but while we, in a
great majority of cases may agree, II does
not help the matter.
There is one suggestion that I have not
seen made to help these men in your People 3
Forum symposium. and that is for the Gov
ernment to establish oil these men on the
Government land in the West, and make
them tillers Of the soil. the Government to
appropriate sufficient money to start them,
simply leasing to them tho land. which. II
they fail to develop II, is to be turned back
to the Government. This would care, am
sure for large part of the present uncm-
ployed army.
MY Impression Is that the Government Of
fered very liberal terms, in the distribu-
uoh OF this land to the returned soldiers, but
at the time very fcw Of them avaled them
selves OF the privilege. They might look
Inherently at the proposition today. II is
also my Impression that after a certain pc
rlod the Government relinuulshed its liber-
allty to the soldiers, and today they come
into possession OF this land under the same
rights that any other citizens have.
Placing men on this unoccupcd land to-
day would mean much TO the development OF
our country. II would give these present
unemployed soldiers n means OF earning a
livelihood and take at least that number out
Of the unemployed class. Besides. Il would
help materially to reduce the present large
amount OF unoccupied land.
The way It should be done would be TO
got list OF all these cx-service men who
would be willing to take and develop a cer-
tain amount OF this unocoupied land Portion
this land among them. giving them the most
desirable sections OF It. Then the Govern
ment should advance to these men sufficient
money TO stock the place and buy imple-
ments with which to cultivate Il. 1t would
not require great amount OF money. and
1t could be merely given as a loan. with a
small amount or no interest. We have
loaned foreign governments vast sums and
we are receiving no interest up to the pres
ent time, and there IL n likelihood of our
never getting any interest. This method
would at least take out OF the unemployment
lSt the ex-service men who are really de-
sirous OF helping themselves.

The Profiteering Druggists

TO The Editor Of the EveninD Public LcdOCr:
Sr-I ann heartily in accord with &c. l..
B." in hs attack on prohteering drug
gists. Prioi to the war forty or fifty cents
was the prevailing price for the illinG OF u
prescription, and It depended on the in
gredeats, but nowadays it IL s"renty-fivc
cents or more No matter what the ingre-
dents arc, II is an established faCt-and l
know what l am saying whrr ! make this
statcmcnt---that the profits on the filling OF
Prescriptions range from 200 to 400 per
cent. -
But like all prohteers, druggists seem
10 think that they are justified in main
tanning these war prices. Notwithstanding
the fact that wages have come down and
the cost of living has lowered little. We
can at least use this method of exposing
them as there seems to DO no law in the
land to check prohtecring.
VIII be very thankful. Mr.. Editor. II YOU
will give this space in the Peoples Forum.

70 the Editor Of the ETcniu0 Public LCd0er:
Sir--How comes it that Europe owes US
ten billion dollars? Answcr--Our Govern
ment lent It to Europe during the war.
Where did our Government get II! An
swer-Out OF our pockets; We bought Liberty
bonds and war stamps.
What did Europe do with IL? Answer
Paid II to American proftcers-at enormous
profits and high wages-for supplies to
tsrry on the var.
When will Europe pay our Government
this ten billion dollars and interest thereon?
Answer-No one knows; perhaps never. Con
sress has directed committee, with Sec
retary Mellon as chairman, to make all
arrangements with Europe as TO terms and
times of payments and rate of interest.
VIII Congress review this" Answcr--No.
This committee has\f full power.
How much does principal and interest
amount to now? Nnswer--It would pay
half Of our national war debt. The interest
alone each year would more than meet the
payments due oCr eX-servlco men under the
provisions OF the Compensation Bill ONonus
