Catoctin clarion. [volume] (Mechanicstown, Md.) 1871-1940, 1922-02-09
Thumont County, Maryland Thursday February 1922

one million dollars a day, including
Sundays, is being expended by the
Government for the ex-service men
and their dependents. Supporting
this answer, Uncle Sam points to the
1922 budget estimate of expenditures
to be made directly for the benefit
of ex-warriors, which calls for one
half billion dollars.
Col. C. r. Forbes, director of the
United States Veterans Bureau, out
lined for International News Service
the expenditures his bureau contem-
plates for the current year. The esti-
mate, in round figures, calls for $510,
100000.
This sum will be divided, Colonel
Forbes said, into seven composite
branches of soldier relief work. For
vocational training, the sum of $167,-
100000; for medical and hospital SER
vices, 1854 600, 900; for payments on war
risk term insurance, $81 100000; for
United States Government life insur-
ance, $5,7OO,OO0; for soldiers compen-
sation, $161, 100000; for retroactive
Government allowances on proven and
extant claims, $4,000 900, and for sal
aries and expenses, that is, admins
tration, $31, 100000.
These figures total $514 100000,
from which Colonel Forbes deducts
the $5,7OO,OOO to be paid in United
States Government life insurance
claims, on the grounds that that is a
self-supporting branch of the bu-
reau's activities.
Of the 100000 allotted to vo-
cational training Colonel Forbes be-
lieves that not more than $3,000,000
will be used for administration eXpen
ses at the Government camps, train
ing schools and reconstruction centres
Thus, the major portion of that allot-
ment will go to pay the ex-service men
an average of $155 per man per month
while in training.
He pointed out that $115 was an av-
erage, declaring that payments vary
between $50 and $17O per month per
man. The greatest amount will be
expended at Camp Sherman, Chilli
cothe, Ohio. In addition it will pay
for the former soldiers stationed at
the bureaus six additional large train
ing centres and forty-one small train
ing centres.
The administration will include
salaries and expenses of the bureaus
Washington office, it's fourteen district
offices, it's 126 sub-offices and the sal
aries of all teachers.
Colonel Forbes declared that the bu
reau is handling satisfactorily 100000
compensation claims, for which $751;
0OO,O 900 has been allotted, and 10000
insurance claims, for which $S1 1,700,,
900 has been set aside.
The bureau, it's director explained
is maintaining slightly more than so,
900 former soldiers in public and pri.
vate educational institutions and ar
average of $4,000 in placement train
ing in industrial schools. The numbeg
of men in all vocational schools is
5,O35. Of these $50 are at Camp Sher
man.

ical landmarks, historic and prehis-
toric structures, and other objects of
historic or scientific interest that are
situated upon lands owned or controll-
ed by the Government. The estab-
lishment of a monument prevents the
removal of any objects of interest ex-
cept under the authority of the Secre-
tary of Agriculture.
The Lehman caves are miles west
of Baker White Pine County, New,
at the base of Mt. Wheeler and at an
elevation of 1900 feet. They are in
light gray and white limestone form
alton on the eastern slope of the
mountain. They contain stalactites
and stalagmites, columns and galleries
of rare beauty that have inspired the
people of the locality to apply to the
various parts of the caves such fanci-
full names as The Pearly Gates, The
Cypress Swamp, The Portiere, The
Parachutes, Liberty Column, Washing
toms Column, Palace of the Gods,
Pygmalion and Galatea (two columns),
Cathedral of Rest, Eagles Gate, The
Snow Queen of the Underworld, An
gels Wing, Lincoln Column, and Nj
agara Falls.
Residents of the nearby region long
ago blasted out an entrance and built
stairways. The Government will make
such improvements as are necessary
for convenience of tourists who wish
to visit the monument.

A TOMBSTONE EPITAPH

Some people and some newspapers give more time and attention to fakirs like Billy Sunday than they do to home industries and payrolls. They seem to think the bread-and-butter prob lem, and the dinnerpail brigade are of less conse quence than speculations on what particular brand of erring citizens shall shovel coal into the birthstone furnaces in the next world Just the same it will be noticed that the newspapers that give some space to home industries are not so near a starvation basis for advertising. - Tomb stone Epitaph.
 We'll venture that editor Giragi did not mean just what he said in the wind up, for he has more respect for heaven than for dollars. But we'll bet him few dollars that his intentions were to intomate that he would rather go to hell, if heaven was to be contaminated with Billy's muck rakings, lewed and licensous language; riot of rot and filth that no decent people would allow their children to hear, if some few churches did not give it their sanction. If any stage or any film company ever attempted to pull the same sort of stuff that Billy does - and our opinion is that Billy is doing it for just measley dollars, they would hit up in the old common "hoosgow." Billy seems to have habit of mixing his bank account with his meager hopes of heaven = if he has any.
 The church backing of people like Billy Sun day has put millions of people back to Monday
 It is a most difficult task to get real news paper man to say he is not for the real teachings of Christ, but he may renig on doing things that money grabbers" attempt to do in His name.

POLITICIANS AND NEWSPAPERS

For a number of years past there has been trend among some few politicians to see what they can possibly do to make newspapers of the United States subservient to them under the law. The newspaper at present, under law that was expected to make all kinds of misery and to show up the poor boobs who happened to be interested in newspaper, are required to show who owns it, why he owns it, who else is inter- ested and where the money comes from to keep the rag going. This inventory of the internals of the publication must be made twice each year; sworn to and published in the newspaper. No other local business concern has to do that, but the big politicians put this over and the little old country weekly must tell their whole story. Probably so the politicians may know just where to reach them in financial way during the next campaign. The latest thing along this line is the fool Walsh bill which is to prohibit the pub- licati0n of any news that is likely to lead to gambling. The law could be construed to pre- vent the publication of ball games, football games, pitching horseshoes, croquet, what wood alcohol would do after it is drunk = million other things. It is rotten to think at this day and age that fool thing like the Walsh bill could even be introduced, let alone recognized, The average newspaper editor stays awake nights trying to publish a paper that will keep out the things which are not for the good of the general public; his main idea of success is to publish paper that is clean and good, yet there is law after law proposed by some yap who acci- 'denty gets into the legislature or congress, to put the screws on some newspaper he has it in for, some newspaper that has evidently told the truth about him.
 The time seems to have come when the real newspaper men should get together on the basis of telling the whole truth about this class of political bunko men. In many instances the truth told bluntly would not lead to gambling, it would lead many of these wise bunko artists to the "hoosegow" where they rightfully belong. For good many years each succeeding legisla- ture in Arizona seem to have felt it their duty to help make life miserable for the newspapers and the employing printers by passing laws against them. The newspaper business is legitimate business, at least it used to be before they were outlawed by the friends they boosted into office. Pulling the record of some of these "holier than thou element would start the peo- pie to thinking and make the newspaper worthy of their trust, heap more thought of in their different communities. Not one politician of the class we mention would stand one half the grief 8 hundred newspaper men would stand for, for friend.

PEOPLE" OWN POWER COMPANY

The Southern California Edison company of Los Angeles from the 17th to the 18th of No vember inclusive, sold $2,105,00O worth of it's stock to 2,618 subscribers.
 Since the 24th of January, 1921, this company has sold 147,327 shares of stock to 23,269 sub- scribers and it now has total of over 25,0O0 stock holders, 90 per cent of whom live in Cali fornia, the state where the company operates.
 There is no better form of public ownership" than this method. The profits from the com- pany thus owned are paid directly to the people in the territory where the property is operated and to the customers of the company
 Local pride in sound and progressive public utility is stimulated and the dividends which the user of the service receives from small amount of stock offsets by just that much, the bills which he pays to his own company. = The Manufact- urer.

A lot of fellows are trying to tip up Editor Bill Stuart's tripod on the Prescott Courier. Bill is wearing one shirt week trying to save time while piloting the "great unwashed" democracy into safe, salaried port for the next term. Bill gets off with the wrong foot at times and tells 'em some of the real truths of political troubles in the democratic party and they don't like that, but when he spills some Jeffersonian stuff, di- luted to suit current conditions, the rest of the gang promptly plaster it on their propaganda page. Bills local history is mixed at times but give him time and he'll sure tell the truth in most aggravating way. In any event we hope he will cut the party stuff and point out where the old state boot is raising corn. Bill is al- most human at times.

TAKE FEM WITH SALT

'It would be better to rejoice over things ac- complished than to dwell on differing views which can be of no great consequence" declares president Harding in referring to the rumors that he and the American delegation are in dis agreement on the interpretion of the Four-Pow- CT Treaty. That is the the view taken by all sensible citizens. Space writers stationed at Washington do not hesitate to magnify for news purposes every fancied obstacle to complete suc- cess of the conference but their effusions ought to be discounted on the ground of professional necessity.

The readers of The Sun may expect much better and more readable paper for the next month or so because of the fact that the editor accompanied by his wife left Wednesday for Honolulu on tour of inspection. If we get around Koko Head, we hope to pass up Keala- kekua and Kalaupapa. In the meantime it will be up to Del Strong to brush the clouds away from The Sun.

The Arizona Republicans "Midwinter and Re- source" edition of 120 pages is the most com- plete edition of the kind ever published in Ari- zona. It covers in full about every important industry from one end of the state to the other and is replete with illustrations. The manage ment does not brag much over the achievement, but it has perfect right to do so.

Senator Penrose is dead. He served in the United States senate since 1897 and was one of the most influential members of that body. Probably no other man in that body was more heartily criticized and feared by the democrats. When they had no other issue Penrose was made the target.
