To the Editor. The washingtoh Herald:
At the present time there is con-

vain, for at least some portion of
the crumbs made by the profiteers
during the war. Statements are
made alleging mistreatmcnt of
wounded soldiers and deploring con-
ditions existing at government hos
pitfalls.
While II is probably true that
some Of the charges arc founded on
fact, nevertheless, the great major
ity are utterly without foundation.
When the large number of disabled
veterans being treated at the hos
pitfalls is taken into consideration,
the number of complaints received
sinks into insignificance. Everything
is being done to handle the claims
of wounded soldiers as expeditions
ly as possible. Beside being given
liberal allowance, as compensa-
tion. which in some cases exceeds
their earning power even prior to
their disability, they are sent to
some of the best universities and
colleges throughout the United
States, where they are reftted to
resume their former status in So

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
take it upon myself to enlighten
Mrs. NJ. d. p. Lee little on the
"Irishmen of the Downing & Co.

stamp" represent the very highest
type of Americanism in the United
States of America. Rosa F. Down

and gave willingly, to the cause
OF the United States of America
whenever volunteers were needed.

J. Downing. with his four brothers
all native born Irishmen-volun-
teered and attained brilliant records
in the Union army. Mr Downing's
eldest brother was a volunteer In
the U. S. army during the war with
Spain. His youngest brother was
a volunteer in the U. S army IN
the world war. therefore I hardly

All praise to J. F. Mccarthy, Of

of their slogans was: with the

Asks Fair Air Test.

io the Editor, The Washington Herald:
The article in last nights Star on
the airplane-ship contest is DIS
heartlnE and disappointing to me as
well' dare say. as il is. to the rest
OF the public interested in the atti-
tude OF Congress toward appropria-
uons Tor suitable air force rather
than continuation of the present
program of building expensive. in
enective battleships. The policy OF
england in regard to her future
navy should be warning enough 10
forestall our American legislators
from following rabbit tracks"
II the conditions set for this test
are not those which an airplane feet
would have in actual battle. the
handicaps to the air force will no
doubt lead TO disastrous results for
them. which il would seem is what
the navy officials want. During the
recent war how many bombing
planes do you suppose kept at an
altitude of 1000 feet and in addi-
tion to this few at their maximum
speed at the time of dropping their
bombs7 Furthermore. allowing the
airplane to drop but one bomb at
a time, in order that it's effective
ness may be studied, indicates
greater unfairness. 1t would be as
reasonable to ask a nest Of machine
Eunners to fire just one shot at a
time SO that the damage OF each
shot might be Rscertained.
II should be borne in mind that a
squad Of airplanes in actual battle

Urges Screens in Markets.

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
While the children are being urged
to swat the fly. the Health Office
should step in and issue an order
to all of the dealers at the markets,
and in the stores, to cover up the
food which is so carelessly left un-
covered. If flies carry poisonous
germs it is certainly a wonder there
isn't an epidemic here of all dis
eases known to medical science.
They (the dealers) get enough for
their foodstuffs to cover them with
silk and satin, and yet the meats,
blackberries. cakes. and pies are left
as a prey for the little pesky, nasty
flies, And the dealers should be
urged to have their goods properly
screened to keep out the flies that
seem to be thrown in for. good
weights and measures. Will not the
Health Office take some notice of
this?

According to a report before a
medical association the other day,

Manufacturers have been cur
tailed by laws and have raised their
products to the sky. The druggist
who has a regard for the financial

What for? To save a few old
sots that are today just as drunk as
they were when things were wide
open. For this We are sacrificing
our necessary industries. putting
our financial life in jeopardy. making
real criminals out of our good citi-
zens and creating a condition that
breeds immortality and disease. A
real professional individual cannot
retain his or her self-respect and

Boleyn, succeeded to the throne as
Queen Elizabeth, reigning from 1858
to 1903. .
Mary Queen of Scots was Mary
Stuart, the granddaughter of Mar
garet Tudor. sister of Henry Vim,
who married James w of Scotland.
Mary Queen of Scots was con-
victed of conspiracy against the
throne of England. and executed by
order of Queen Elizabeth.
James Stuart (James VI OF Scot
land). son Of Mary Queen of Scots
succeeded to the English throne at
the death of Queen Elizabeth. and
became King James / of England.
Please allow me to remind you
that If Mary Queen OF Scots had
been the daughter of King Henry
and Queen Catherine, she. as the
eldest child. would have been the
reigning Queen of England. the
crown would have gone to her son
at her death. and Queen Elizabeth
would never have been queen.

As a Herald reader and one whose

commend the high standard Of your

People are impressed by the fact
that The Herald now is an intensely
Interesting daily. and has become so
without resort to sensational news

A recent issue had three columns on
its frcnt page devoted 20 intimate
reports OF the Stillman divorce case,
details Of a criminal assault in the
vicinity OF Baltimore, and sugges-
tive features Of the Peggy Joyce
suit, respectively. News items to be
sure, yet the gentleman rightfuliy
believed the Hearst papers deserve

other papers must herald such news
to the public il would be more in
place il printed on back pages. Our

readers children as well as grown
ups.
In contrast TO this one instance
am reminded Of The Herald's front
page. Sunday. June ls. There a part
column in black-face type described
the poverty-stricken condition Of the
old lady who cared for Peggy Joyce
during the Iatter's tender years.
