RED CROSS GIVING AID

418,329 ex-service men during
the past year and 35,26S durinR the
month of January, 1921, required
and received aid from Red Cross
Chapters in Illinois, Michigan, Wis
consin,, Iowa and Nebraska, in mat
tiers pertaining to establishments fol-
lowing discharge. The large variety
OF matters on which the ex-soldier
requires personal service is decid-
eddy on the increase, due to the fact
that some OF the men are only Just
learning what their rights are ac-
cording to government provision
and also because many of them are
just beginning to feel the effects of
injuries and ailments acquired dur
ing the war. 1t is estimamted that
more than 10000 men now in the
hospitals, the majority OF whom are
receiving Red Cross Medical Social
Service, will increase to $4,000 dur
ing the next three years.
The records of the United States
Public Health Service indicate that
thousands of former service men are
developing tuberculosis and other
lung affections which are directly
traceable to war service. other
thousands are seeking treatment for
nerve disorders and mental troubles
which, too, may be traced to their
origin-war experiences.

new owner. To finance the system
registration fee of one-tenth of
one per cent would be charged, bas-
ed on the assessed valuation of the
land.
The bill is an improvement over
the Torrens system because it would
centralize the entire land title bus
mess of the state under competent
men who would have no financial
axes to grind. So far as expense
goes, it would be non-cumulatiye in
operation. That is, additional trans
fers of land would not add to the
expense as it does under the present
system. 1t would do away with at
torney fees, abstract fees, court
costs and all the rest of it that at
present make the abstract any but
enjoyable to those who have to pay
the freight.
This is a good bill and ought to
become a law. Federation officials
realize they will have to face some
pretty warm opposition, but they
have their fighting clothes on and
are ready to back it to the limit OF
reason. Every county organization
in the state should get behind this
bill and help the Federation officials
to put it over.

NEW BILL INTRODUCED
Which, IL Passed, Is Claimed VIII Be
A Great Saving to Land
Owners.

House File No. SIG, introduced in
the 39th General Assembly, is one
Of the most constructive measures
ever offered to the people of Iowa.
This bill was prepared by the Iowa
Farm Bureau Federation. 1t was de-
signed to provide a simple, econom-
ical and equitable system of regis
tering land titles. II it becomes a
law, all the annoyance and trouble,
and very large part OF the expense
that go with the present system of
transferring titles will be eliminat-
ed. Under its provisions the entire
business of the state would be CEN
tered in Des Moines under a Com
missioner of Titles, appointed by the
governor. When a tract of land was
to be transferred the title would be
submitted to two competent exam
liners. If found satisfactory it would
be accepted, registered in the Com
missioner's office and a certificate
issued with the guarantee of the
State of Iowa. In case of later sale
this certificate would be turned in
and another certificate issued to the

Torrance Of an improved form Of gun
for shooting a life line over a wrecked
vessel, in recent official trials. says

eighty degrees, and its range Is 1,700
feet. The barrel is readily carried by
one man. and the one-piece carriage

Gather From Fish Skins.

The bureau of fisheries, United
States department Of commerce, re-
ports excellent progress in the tan
ming Of fish leather. One company

lished a station in North Carolina and
another in Florids for the capture of
sharks and porpoises, and is meeting
with success In its fishery for sharks.
II is understood that the number of
stations will be increased as rapidly
as possible. Another company has re-

EDrrCATIoN

Much of child's early education
is unconsciously acquired at home,
not by teaching, but by imitation.
Through imitation he learns 20 speak
his first words, and from then on
through his entire childhood he un-
consciously initiates the language,
manners and emotions of the oloer
people about him. II a child lives
amongst people whose manners are
pleasant, who show consideration for
others and are gentle, the child ac-
quires a similar way; on the other
hand, IL child is amongst people
who are. fault-finding, or quarrel
some, he may develop these same
tendencies, however much he may
abhor these qualities in later life.
A normal child is full of curiosity
and through his questions the par
ents have an opportunity to lay the
foundation for practical education.
Meet your child's questions with re-
spect and give a truthful answer. No
matter how trivial and unimportant
may seem the question to the busy
adult, they are all-important to the
child, and il he can not count on
sympathy and attention from his
own family, he will have missed
something which can never be made
up to him. None detects deceit more
readily than child, and IL dishonest
or fancyful replies are frequently
given him there may grow up in his
mind a disrespect for the opinion OF
his parents, and suspicion of their
motives, and the greatest factor in
human relations--that OF the conf
dence of your child-may be lost.
Then:
Why not say joyous word
Whenever we are meeting.
IT'S always worth four times as
much
AS others we're repeating.

BOARD RULES
 10 MAINTAIN BY. CONTRACT
tBy United Pressl

Chicago, Feb. 10-Outright rejec- tion of the plea of the Association of American Railway Executives for ab- rogation of the national agreement was announced today by the United States railway labor board, which also refused to sanction the reductions in wages scheduled by the executives.
 The board announced that it would continue hearings for employees, the executives already having concluded their arguments for both the reduced wages and abrogation of the agree ment.
 At the end of it's report, the board declared that if the national agree ment enforces unjust and unfair con ditions upon the railroads, observance of the agreement is an unWarranted burden.
 The national agreement was written by the federal railroad administration and was ccepted by the railroads as war time nfesure. It stipulates that uniform conditions of employment and uniform wages shall be observed by carriers operating in the United States. Since the return of the roads to private ownership, continued eff forts have been made to abrogate the agreement, which have been as firmly opposed by the brotherhoods as vigor- ously pressed by the executives.

SAYS CAPITAL SEEKS
 TO DOMINATE LABOR
(By United Press)

Chicago, Feb. 10-Charges that railroad owners have conspired to wreck labor unions and so place workers under the control of capital were made before the United States railroad labor board today by Bert Jewell, chairman of the railway em- ploy's department of the American Federation of Labor.
 MT. Jewell asked that the board postpone its hearings on the request of the executives for abrogation of the national agreement. so that proof in support of the charges could be produced by organized labor. His ap- pearance before the board was one of the big moments in the boards hearings here. However, refusal tc sanction abrogation of the national agreement was announced by the board without Mr. Jewell having op- portunity to prove his charges.
