hospital facilities are such that dis
abled men are not properly treated.
and while the increasing number OF
men requiring hospital care calls
for increase Expenditures. we can
undertake no projects which will
endanger their welfare.
AS representative OF the largest
group OF former service men. it is
to be expected that a similar stand
will be taken by the American Le-
gion. At the last annual conven
ton the American Legion delegates
reiterated their demand for a bonus.
but they also recommended that
their National Executive Commit
tee be urged to consider matters Of
first importance and to be given
preference to other legislation af-
fecting the welfare OF ex-service
men,"
II that declaration meant any
thing, Il meant exactly what the
Joint Committee for Aid to Disabled
Veterans has maintained-that
able-bodied service men would not
press for their own advantage IL
such action would imperil the well
fare of their disabled comrades.
For some months the American Le-
gion has performed a splendid SER
vice in rekindling interest in the
problems OF the disabled. But that
Is not enough. The American Le-
gion cannot be devoted TO the dis
abled and devoted to a bonus at the
same time. II It is for a bonus.
then it is against the disabled. II IL
is for the disabled. then it is against
the bonus, and II must let Congress
clearly understand that the bonus
issue is dead while the debt to the
disabled remains unpaid.

MST PAY THE PRICE.

GAYS our esteemed Democratic contemporary the Dover
- State News;
It Is rather dcult TO understand the attitude OF some
our legislators with regard TO school laws There
members OF both House and Senate who claim to be
friends OF education, and would wish TO Delawares
educational standard raised 10 plane equal TO that OF
any State in the Union. Yet these members apparently
would sacrifice the interests OF Delaware school children
because Of the increased taxes that better educational
facilities naturally call for.
The taxpayers OF this State must realize later
that they want the best Of educational facilities for
their children they must be willing pay increase in
school TO get them II financial considerations are
outweigh all others, then must expect 10 Della
ware at the lower end OF the list Of States from
educational standpoint Why not give Delaware school
children the best that money can buy2
That is a sensible view OF what is concededly ag-
sravaied legislative situation. II TO have proper
educational facilities must pay the price As the good
old farm adage puts it with respect to the I'VE can

Teachers Pay Light-Fire Tribute Heavy
Startling Statistics Show Need
of Teaching Fire Prevention
in Schools of Nation

IF the loss OF property by nre in the
United States In the last i've years
- could have been saved and added to
salaries for school teachers, they would
all have had approximately 81 per cent
higher pay annually, according to sta
tistics which have just been compiled
by the National Board OF Fire Under
writers and issued In New York by the
National Association OF Credit Men.
This amazing showing has Just been
made By the latter organization in con-
nection with It's nation wide campaign
for nre prevention education In the
public schools. Bills providing for
such education have been introduced in
many Of the State legislatures and such
legislation is expected 10 be enacted By
a majority OF the States this year.
According TO the associations figures,
complied from U. S. Government reports
and National Board statistics. the total
amount paid In salaries TO teachers In
1918 the last year for which figures are
available was s42t. .0s4 .254, compared
with a loss OF 81. .ti63 $4,000 by nre for
the nve years ending with 1920. Thus
the nre loss In those fve years was
about three and a third times the
amount OF teachers salaries for the
single year.
In every state In the Union the nre
loss for the period was greater than
the annual teachers payroll the only
exception being in the District OF Co
lumbia. where Uncle Sam tries to run a
model city. There only the situation
was reversed.
The statistics for each OF the States
are shown in the accompanying table.
In addition to the property waste By
are, 1900 human lives were sacrificed
In the same time. according to a state
ment Just received by the National
Association OF Credit Men from Gov
srnor Harry L. Davis. Of Ohio.
Il believe that one OF the most erec-
tive methods Of coping with this great
peril is through the education OF our
children." added the Governor.

New York, June S.-It takes more than n jail sentence to keep Babe Ruth from playing ball at the Polo grounds.
 Babe served six hours-a tech- nical day-in the traffic court ''pen" today, made wild dash out to the field and played three innings of n winning game against Cleveland.
 After paying $1O0 line for hit ting the high spots on Riverside Drive nbout week ago, he be- gan serving one day '.In cOnflne- ment" because this was his sec Ond Offense.

 He had a part of his uniform under his clothing and changed In time to swing a bat in the sixth inning The crowds in the stands did not recognize him at first. There was n pause. then the crowds rose to their feet and welcomed him uproarously.

He did not have another chance to shine, hut the fans did not care when the Yankees rallied nt the end of the ninth and put over two winning runs.

Loses sunny Disposition


 Babe lost some of his famous sunny disposition when he heard Magistrate House pronounce the jail sentence. He had come to court prepared to pay heavy fine, and hnd peeled off s1O0 bill from n roll to close the finan- cial end of his sentence.
 Then he was led from the courtroom by . keeper to begin serving his time. Officially his day in jail would end at 1 o'clock this afternoon.
 Asked if he expected to play today against Cleveland, the wor- fried ball player replied:
 How can IF"
 Then after refIectinE for a mo- ment, he frightened up and said.
 "Weii. ! may play half of the game"
 Babe plainly was disgusted with the world in general and courts in particular when he was taken to small ante-room, near the court. which served as his cell. He grunted answers to the customary questions asked by the police officers and submitted to finger printing with bad Grnce.
 The formaIities in such cases over, he sat down and tried to read a newspaper. The sporting page did not interest him at all. Finally. he crumpled the paper and threw it on the floor. Then he surveyed other unfortunates, including some truck drivers, sentenced to jaiI.>
 After while he asked permis- sion to telephone to some of his friends to see what could be done about obtaining his release. He couldn't reach them, and he dis played more bad temper.
 Even smoking did not interest him. He spent good deal of the time looking at his watch and figuring how soon i o'clock would roll around. Occasionally he gazed out of a window at the sky and remarked that it was a good day for the game.
 In sentencing Ruth, the magis- trate said:
