IN. Poincare is man of st. Pauls

both expressed themselves recently in
his speech on the Meuse.

the communists and the bolshevists;

grows out of the war with Germany.
Liberia declared war against Ger

it is said. Under the liberty loan act,
President Wilson authorized loan
of ST, ,000, 900 to the African republic
lin order to help her meet the difficult
situation arising out of the war. Up
to the time of the declaration of war

Liberia had been conducted by Ger

the rehabilitation of the country.
Authorized by House.
The House put through joint reso-
luton authorizing the loan months
ago. and during the last week the
Senate has been wrestling with the
measure. That it eventually will be-
come law is the belief of the leaders.
Last October a commission from
Liberia, headed by President King OF
the republic, negotiated in this coun-

BY n. o. MESSENGER.


~ RESERVATIONS made in re-
cent weeks in a part of the
midwest section of the
country, typical, 1t IS be-
1ieved. of a large area. have disclosed
q condition of unrest existing in a
class of the population that is caus-
ing concern to thoughtful people and
should be called to the attention of
conservative elements. removed from
the scene and surroundings. The
pioneers in such an undertaking will
be met at the outside with skepti-
cism and scofting. "Alarmist" will
be the adjective applied by the SNUG
and complacent. serene in their at
mosphere of aloofness. None too
timely" will be the retort of those
who have the inclination and take
the pains to investigate.
Radicalism, socialism, un-Ameri-
canism are being inculcated in
class of the citizenship by sinister
forces which are working under
cover, taking advantage of the
dominant American spirit of easy
going belief that the United States
can never afford ground for the
growth of such doctrines.
Arouxing Class Feeling.
The first lesson in this propaganda
10 excitement of class animosity. 1t
might be called the breaking and
narrowing of the soil to receive the
seed which will later grow deadller
and more noisome plant. Two cir
cumstances have made the time and
conditions propitious for the efforts
now being put forth-the coal ana

Proposes an Industrial Court
for Adjustments on Railroads

which lies at the root of most of our
industrial ills, he argues. The effort
to provide this better way is in the
interests of labor and not against 1t.
although industrial peace is. OF
course, precisely what the mere labor
agitator does not want. Employees
should not be left to the use of the
expensive and often violent weapon
of the strike in order to secure right
wages, proper working and living
conditions and to have their seniority
and other rights protected. The pub
lie, which demands from them such
a high order of service, should pro-
vide them a better way under the
law. The interests of labor itself, as
we'll as the interests of the great
general public, demand the better
way.

systems, following the example of
corporations. and European and
colonial governments. The systems
adopted vary greatly, both in the
ages fixed for retirement and the
methods for providing the funds from
which allowances may be paid. They
present great inequalities and dis
ordinations. Some employees are
wholly without pensions; others have
pensions, but contribute nothing.
Some contribute one-half the real
cost of their pensions. Some are
compelled to retire; others are not.
The age for retirement and the
for a pension vary. Certain classes

quirement that employees shall serve
twenty years, and the allowance is
generally equal to one-half of the
pensioners salary at the time of re-
tirement The federal system Is
less liberal than most systems, both
in the age for retirement and in the
allowance paid. In certain classes
the retiring allowance is paid from
miscellaneous revenues, such as from
fees and licenses. Utah has a
straight pension plan. the funds for
which are procured from taxes col
lected upon fire insurance premiums.
The contrariety and Determinations
in the systems emphasize the ne
cessity of sound and orderly devel-
opment both in the interest of the
tax-paying public and of the en-
ployes from whose salaries deduc-
tions are made or who may be dis
missed in their old age upon grossly
inadequate allowances or without
any allowances at all. There should
be an actuarial basis for the pension
funds, both that the funds may es-
cape bankruptcy and in order that
employees may have a definite as
surance that their old age will be
provided for,

Teaching of Radical Doctrines
Reaches Point of Grave Menace

a number of governors of states.
Unscrupulous politicians, intent
upon nothing more serious than the
advancement of their own political
fortunes. are lending themselves to
the aims of those who have a more
vicious objective-the division OF
society IN two classes arrayed
against each other. and ultimately a
blow directed at the system OF
government. The politicians Of the
class referred to help to fan the
flame of class antagonism kindled by
the extremists. To them 1t Is but a
flare to light them along their road
of ambition, to be extinguished when
it has served that purpose; but in
stead is being caught up by others to
set organized society atire.
Given a Partisan Turn.
The coal and railway strikes have
been utilitized to preach to one
element of citizenry, the workingmen
in those industries, the charge that
the employing class Is conspiring
with capital to crush the laboring
man. At times the allegation is elab-
grated 10 include the party in power
in Congress and in national admin
stration. That Is said by some of the
politicians. The main gravamen of
assertion, however. is by the radical
agitators who are seeking to gather
the workinGmen into class and ar
ray them against all the rest of the
people who are not of them.
1t would be thought. to attend some
of the meetings the present writer
has visited, and listen to the radical
of agitators playing upon
the distress and needs of men, that
the classes outside of the workers
were a combination of greedy, selfish
monsters, intent upon grinding their

Uncle Sam May Become Ruler
Over Black Republic in Africt

Great Britain in absolute control OF
the country and turn it into a British
colony. This was more than a decade
ago.
Liberia appealed to the United
States during the second administra-
tion of President Roosevelt. urging
that the United States take steps to
guarantee the political and territorial
integrity of the republic. When in
formed that this was not practicable
Liberia urged that American officials
be loaned to aid in running and de-
veloping the country.
The upshot Of the matter was that
an American commission to- investi-
gate conditions in Liberia was advo-
Gated by President Roosevelt and
authorized by Congress: This COM
mission visited Liberia and made an
exhaustive report, in which the en-
croachments Of foreign nations upon
Liberia were clearly set forth. and
recommendations were made that the
United States undertake real aid to
the African republic.
This report was submitted in 1909.
1t proposed that the United States
bring about some system in the
finances Of the country, both with re-
gard to the customs duties and the
internal finances: that the United
States lend it's aid in organizing and
drilling an adequate constabulary or
frontier police; that the United States
establish and maintain a research
station in Liberia to aid in the de-
velopment Of the natural wealth of
the country, and that the United
States establish a naval coaling sta
tion in Liberia.
Small Minority Civilized.
The population of Liberia is about
1850, 200, of whom $4,000 are civilized
and 100000 are uncivilized tribes.
The American commission found that
the Liberians are not a revolutionary
people; that since the beginning OF
their national life they have main
tanned the forms of orderly govern
ment Yithout a revolution in their
history; that Liberia is-not a failure
in elf-government." The commission
reported also that the Liberians have
advanced. not retrograded. and that
the uncivilized tribes have benefited
from their contact with the civilized.
Their government has been patterned
after the government Of the United
States.
The Liberians have had great diff
culties to overcome. Transportation
from the coast cities into the inland
is exceedingly difficult. To maintain
order among the uncivilized tribes and
on the frontiers of the country has
been a hard task. But 1t Is apparent
that order must be maintained on the
frontiers, or else there is continual
danger of becoming embroiled with
the neighboring powers-France and
Great Britain.
The revenues of the country from
