LOSS TO AMERICAN LEGION.

In the death of National Commander F. w. Gal braith, the American Legion suffers a distinct loss and the disabled war veterans of the United States lose one of their warmes friends Since MT. Gal braith made National Commander last Summer he had worked untiringly to promote the aims for which the American Legion brought into exist ence and had been amazingly successful his abors
 Coming into office at time when the countr5 was in the midst of heated political campaign and partisan appeals being made on every organza- ton and every possible influence being brought t. bear, he was able to keep the Legion on strictly ncn-potca footing and discountenanced every move ment that seemed to have anything of politica' nature connected with it.
 He launched and carried forward to recognition all over the country fight to educate the public and congress to the imperative need for looking afte, disabied war veterans whether Legion members or not To his efforts and those of his oworkers many service man is indebted for the care tardy in som instances, which they finally received. That work while well along, is not yet completed but MT Galbrath lived long enough see it bear fruit
 He carried the American Legion to a high plane ana set mark it's National Commander whicn VIII De hard to surpass He became a national hsure by his unceasng activities for the war veteran and won friends everywhere by his vigorous Amer icanism

HELPING TOURISTS.

The Anchorage Woman's Club has initiated a designed to attract tourists to that section Alaska. For that purpose it has organized a every possible aid to tourists other travellers visiting their community. .@ N&
 somewhat similar plan tried last Sum- by the people of Fairbanks Fairbanksans found that large number of tourists visiting the getting away without being able to the surround ing country. To remedy the stuation citizens with automobiles placed themselves the service of the farms and showing them every possible point of in terest. In this manner many people left Fairbanks with fuller knowledge of the country than would have been possible otherwise and with better under standing of the people. They went away with a good word for the town. There is to doubt that Fairbanks will reap very material from the plan they followed
 Being helpful to visitors is one the best things any community can do Occasionally one may strike gronch who doesn't appreciate courtesy and thought fulness, but the vast majority genuinely appre- cative and show it in many practical ways ia not necessary to place ones automobiles the ice of tourists. Giving of information about points Of local and general interest about Territorial sources, weather, climate and other sub jects often is of very practical assistance. Such service costs the giver nothing a little time munity and the Territory.
 The idea conceived by the Anchorage Womans Club IS good one and is worthy of emulation,

For Poland to Speak.
New York Post l

(NeW IOrk POSt)
 Lloyd Georges loss of temper Silesa cannot do away with the fact that he angry in right eous cause The provisions of the Treaty of Yer saes and the authority of the Supreme Council have been fouted by the leaders of the Polish coup detat Poland draws her existence from the Treaty of Versailles and she cannot play fast and loose with it's clauses without unsettling Europe and laying up trouble for herself.
 It is not enough for the Polish Government to annunziad. For the sake of the argument that point may be conceded and it still remains that it is Poland's duty to undo the mischief. Warsaw do this by appeal to the Sesian insurgents ap- peal which shall also be command. Korfanty's legionaries should be reminded that they doing disservice to the motherland. No will object ii Poland couples with such reminder a statement o1 the rights" of the Polish inhabitants of Silesa She may describe herself lowing superior force but she must bow just the same
 Any other solution will leave the peace of Europe the mercy of the patriotic direct actioniss And that is not condition which the Allies, and least o all France, contemplate with satisfaction. In all for trouble lie piled up. After DAnnunzio in Fiume, Zegowski in Wilma and Korfanty in Silesia im- tators may spring up among the Hungarans under Rumanian rule, among the Germans of Czechoslo- vakia, in the Tyro It is game at which two sides play; if not always successfully at least to the distraction of the Continent.
 The issue is a simple one. The fate of Upper Silesia, according to the Treaty be decided by the Supreme Council the basis the recent plebiscte Polish activity has violated the Treaty in that respect. And it is for Polands best interests that the original situation be restored Otherwise she questions the Treaty, which is her charter of nationality and she sacrifices the sympathies of working out the tremendously difficult problems of her national restoration.

Cincinnati Enquirer.)


 The checking of immigration for so short a period as fourteen months is wise policy a policy demanded by the complicated exigences of the times and the judgment of the Senate in striking out the religious political persecution clause from the new law will be approved by the public.
 But all Limitations of immigration all efforts at selective methods all precautions taken against the entry of dangerous elements from other lands can serve no lasting good purpose unless the alien ing to these shores is met with friendly interest guided by intelligent and disciplined effort and in every way assisted to become citizens instead Of a liability, burdensome dangerous.
 {, The only certain remedy here is education He must be taught from the day of his entry that license is not liberty and will be tolerated He must be made to understand the nature his larger Freedom The public interest generally should be listed in the wise and profitable task insructng the foreign born into the proper understanding and sympathetic espousal of institutions and ideals They must be led to comprehend the value our form or Government it's powers to aid and protect They must be drilled in the knowledge of the advantage or our social political and moral standards
 Pending the arrival of numbers from the old lands. after the prescribed lapse of fourteen months, it might be well for the national authorities and the public generally acting in cooperation to go ater such part of the nearly IA 000000 foreign born persons now living in this country may not have learned the lessons they should know.

War and Education.

University of North Carolina News Record)
 There is small comfort in the fact that Federal taxes average $270 family; that $1S3 it Is on account of past wars-interest on war debts pensions vocational and health rehabilitation for soldiers and sailors and the like; that $66 goes for alrect expenditures on the army and navy and that only $16 of it goes Government funconssalaries and public works; and that only $2.70 of it is spent on health education and agriculture!
 Ihe navy costs us more year by year than all our churches Of every name, sect, and sort-more this year by some fifty million dollars.
 The army costs us more than all colleges tech meal schools, and universities church and state more by two hundred million dollars.
 A single frstclass batteship costs us more than the teacher training schools of the whole United states-from ten to fifteen millions
 So far in the worlds history culture and the curse or war have been one. And Congresses and Parlia- ments are never likely to weigh the against the other unless the multiudes in every country begin 10 organize an intelligent-not to say a Christian revolt against swords spears in behalf of plough shares and pruning hooks.
