WE ARE ALL MAKING PLANS
for CHRISTMAS. Including ''B. B." Eitel-
man, who will pack deliciously fresh
chocolates, the assortment to be
chosen by the purchaser, in boxes
from one-half pound to the five-pound
size, in which will be enclosed a
Christmas greeting card. To his stock
of Christmas candies, Mr.. Eitelman
has just added an excellent new line
of the bright colored assorted hard
candies-a brand never sold in Topeka,
before, and the quality is as good and
the price one-third less than other
candies of the kind.

A Peril to Organized Labor

It was for moral support by or
ganized labor that Mr.. Gompers is
sned his appeal in the rail strike.
Far more important is it for union
leaders to seek the moral support of
The country at large. There is a
grave peril to all organized labor in
the events of the strike, and Mr..
Gompers should have the vision to
see it,
That peril lies in the continued
acts Of violence and damage that are
reported Thus far few lives have
been lost. There have been many
narrow escapes, great inconven-
ience, much hardship. In the de-
sertion of trains in the desert there
was willful disregard of human
life and welfare that testified to a
dangerous spirit and an utter blind
ness to public rights. That was the
avowed act of union men, Since then
there has been one act after another
by persons unknown of increasing
peril to human life. The attempted
dynamiting of a bridge has been fol-
lowed by the derailment of train.
ssDeliberate homicide" was the ver-
dict of the coroner's jury upon this
latter crime that wrecked Michigan
Central express near Gary, Ind.
Not one word has been uttered
publicly by a union leader in re-
proof of these acts. To the direct
contrary, the "Big Four" leaders
used language which distinctly con-
doned the desertion of trains. The
grave responsibility resting upon Mr..
Gompers and the other leaders of
organized labor is clear. Whether
the acts of violenee are being COM
mitted by outlaws or by union work
ers, the duty of union leaders to de-
nounce such acts and insist that they
cease cannot be escaped.
At any hour, if these crimes con-
finue, there may come an accident
which will shock the conscience of
the American people. 1t is impossi-
bic to foresee what horrors or loss of
life there may be, and it is equally
impossible to guess how far and for
what length of time such an abomi-
4
against those nearly and remotely
1asponsible. But the peril is clear.
The people of America cannot be
scared into surrender by any threat
of danger. Their sympathies can be
alienated from cause by a willful
and wholesale disregard of life. The
facts and the danger are before Mr..
Gompers for action.

Germany Must Pay
, Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In the settlement with Ger
many justice must be satisfied by
reparation, not only to the nations in
iured on land, wherein many of the
neutrals also have ample ground for
compensation, but the German must
also make good to the peoples he has
wronged all that he has done upon the
seas that is lawless and inhuman.
All ships sunk in defiance of inter-
national law must now be paid for or
replaced, and every passenger, every
member of the crew killed or injured,
must be paid for by Germany.
Likewise for every man and woman
torn from home and sent into slavery
into Germany indemnity must be
asked and given-the girls and women
from Lille, the young men from Bel
GUM and Poland.
Following indemnities for persons
| full restoration must be made Of all
destroyed property in the invaded
territory. dwellings, public buildings,
mines, factories, highways and fields.
There also can be no doubt that Ger
nany's allies, Bulgaria and Turkey,
must be held to account for their mis-
deeds.
We must turn deaf ears to this
whine Of "Kamerad!" Let the Germans

The Prisoners Family

Adequate wages for prisoners in
industrialized prisons is urged by the
New York State Federation Of Wom-
ems Clubs as the most important
measure now pending in prison re-
form. Not the prisoner but the pris-
oner's wife and children pay the
heaviest penalty for his crimes. The
protection of society demands that
the offender against the law shall be
put where he can do no further dam
age. Accordingly, he is deprived of
his liberty and relieved of RESPONSE
bility to his family. If his family is
dependent upon his earnings, then
the wife must shoulder the RESPONSE
bility, with such public and private
aid as she can get. Only the charity
organizations know to what extent
the struggling mother and innocent
children have to pay for the public's
protection.
The public conscience has been
greatly stirred Of late years to a
certain duty toward misguided Of
tenders against peace and safety
So much so that criticism has been
directed to the so-called coddling of
prisoners. Reformers are accused of
bending backward in their efforts to
make up for the loss of liberty found
necessary in punishment of crime.
But the worst coddling of all, per-
haps, is the deliberate lifting of re-
sponsibility for the support of the
convict's family. Not only is he shut
away from any opportunity to repeat
his offenses, but he is excused from
his obligations as WE'LL
The federation suggests that a
prisoner be paid a wage equal to the
full value of his labor, less the cost
of his keep, as the proper way to
provide for his dependents. This is
not only fair to the prisoners family
and to the public, but should go a
long way to build up a weakened
morale in the prisoner himself.
New-York tribune., 1922-08-23
The Plattsburg Idea

Mr.. Harding's wish that the num-
her of young men attending the milf
tary training camps may be in
creased from $4,000 to 100000 a
year will be shared by all who have
at heart the best interests Of the
country.
Americas policy of a small regu-
lar army is in part tradition and
in part afresult of the general lack
Of interest in questions of national
defense. II is SO easy to feel that with
no powerful enemies close at hand
we are safe behind the wall OF the
navy that there is tendency to for
get the lessons Of the recent war.
Few persons yet have clear percep-
ton of the cost to the nation of un-
preparedness, and few realize that
had it not been for the Plattsburg
movement this cost would have been
immeasurably greater.
a small army is not sufficient pro-
lection for the United States to-day
If war comes again we may not
have stanch allies to hold off the
enemy as we raise and train fight
ing machine. So complicated is this
machine nowadays that in order to
be effective it must have training be-
fore it goes into action. Unless
many young men are given the rudi-
nents Of this training there will not
be even the framework Of such a
machine when the emergency comes.
The President has already given
the Plattsburg movement his hearty
approval. But if his hope that the
number of young men attending
these camps shall be raised to hun
dred thousand year is to be real
lied it will be necessary for Con-
gress henceforth to appropriate suf-
ficient funds to pay for training
them. This year, as well as last,
many applicants had to be turned
away on account of insufficient ap-
preparations to care for them. With
the active support of the Admins
tration Congress may well be per-
suaded to be more liberal.
New-York tribune., 1922-08-23
That Golden Mean

Immoderate in years, Mr.. John
A. Stewart, facing his Tooth birth
day, puts in striking plea for
moderation in everything else. He
who would live out his century
must tread the middle of the road,
adhere ever to that temperatures
which was first formulated nearly
$500 years ago in Greece. To-
bacco he rules out altogether,
therein departing from his theory
of moderation in favor of an ex-
treme. But that is detail. This
clear thinking, very much alive
centenarian seems a genuine ex-
ample of the faith that he ad-
vocates.
1t is never an inspiring battle
cry, this golden mean talk. Right
or wrong, it is much more exciting
TO take chance and go slamming
Off in the pursuit of one ideal or
another. Critics Of moderation paint
hateful pictures of the temperate
as pale, juiceless creatures mincinp
down a monotonous highway into
the grayest Of futures. We can hear
some youthful dasher-off Of novels
cry, Why, such one has never
lived ''-italicizing the last word in
scornful despair at such OBJ
tuse old-fogyisnl.
Yet the Greeks were beyond
question a colorful people. Even
their statues and friezes were
painted, it is now known, and our
conception Of their art as a thing
OF cold, white marble needs mucb

Newberry's Unforgiven Sin

In the summer of 1918 the patri-
otic voters of Michigan were in
gz-ievous plight. Henry Ford, of
peace ship fame, the states richest
man and largest employer of labor,
proposed to go to the Senate.
The country was at war and
Michigan had no mind to be ad-
Vertised in Germany as state of
Ihroken morale. Appeal was made to
Truman H. Newberry to become a
candidate. He was in uniform. So
were his two sons. Mr.. Newberry
when much urged consented, but said
he, of course, could make no personal
campaign while in the navy.
Patriotic men of Michigan took
on the business of averting the Ford
peril. They raised and spent large
sums in holding meetings, in adver-
tising and in other legitimate forms
of political education. 1t does not
take long to spend $4,000 when
every voter must be appealed to-.
Even as it was, Mr.. Ford was de-
xeated by only small majority.
No convincing evidence mas ever
been adduced showing that Senator
Newberry had anything to sio with
the campaign fund. He was absent
from the state. He heard the noise
at home, but continued to attend to
his military duties.
The defeated pacifsts, angered by
the khaki campaign, attacked him
for bribery and corruption. But the
trial court threw cut these charges.
lie was convicted on the narrow
technicality that he had knowledge
of expenditures which exceeded the
statutory limit. The late Chief Jus
-ice White, who reviewed the case,
was Democrat, but went out of his
way to give Senator Newberry a
certificate Of innocence and to ex-
cariage the trial court.
Secretary Hughes, who as one of
the lawyers for the defense has inti-.
mate knowledge of every chase of
the case, has done the public a serv-
;fe by doing justice to Senator New
Berry. Too long has the voice of

General Woods Return
(From The Washington starr

(From The Washington STAR
In special dispatch to "The Star"
from Manila statement was made
on the authority of General Wood
that, contrary to report, he does not
purpose returning home at an early
day, but will continue in his present
Office $50 long as he feels that his
presence is essential to the success of
isiprogram."
The time is appropriate, however, to
refer again to the fine and patriotic
spirit which actuated General Wood in
his acceptance Of the Philippine billet,
and to the equally fine spirit that
actuated the University Of Pennsyl-
vania in accommodating it's affairs to
his Philippine engagements. He went
at personal sacrifice in response to
a call to public duty, and the univer-
sity for the seme reason assented to
his departure, And for the same rea-
son it awaits the fulfllment of his
Philippine mission.

leave behind for the archipelago when
he embarks for home covers four
years. 1t is to be assumed, therefore
that his successor in the Governor
Generalship when he takes charge will
steer by the Wood chart, and that
the Filipino politicians who have been
agitating for immediate independence
for the islands will govern themselves
accordingly.
America has not either in letter or
spirit broken any promise made at the
time it assumed direction and control
OF Philippine affairs, and will not be
doing so by remaining in such direc-
tion and control, as seems likely. for
some years to come. The flag in the
Islands files for progress and oppor-
tunlty' and is not coming down until
the time is right and ripe.
New-York tribune., 1922-08-23

Something more than mere error
of medical judgment was involved in
the conduct of DR.. Benjamin Stoller
that caused his discharge from the
inferno staff Of Flower Hospital. BY
his attitude toward the sick woman
whom he refused to take to the hos
pital, as we'll as by his curt reply to
his critics, he showed a complete
nnisconception of his duties as ambu-
lance surgeon and demonstrated his
unfitness for that responsible post.
There should be and there need be
no opportunity for an error of judg-
rnent to cause such cruelty and hard
ship. In every doubtful case the
ambulance surgeon should err on the
side of humanity. No other rule is
tolerable. No other practice would
be followed by a doctor properly
equipped for the job. The ambu-
lance makes the most human Of all
contacts between our great charities
and suffering men, women and chill
dren. Charge of an ambulance calls
for human understanding and good
will as we'll as medical training.
The punishment Of DR.. Stoller is
severe, but the good of the service
demanded nothing less. The Board
of Ambulance Service and the execu-
tive committee of Flower Hospital
are to be commended for their
prompt action.

The Pension Boeev

The threat of some of the bonus
supporters that if the McCumber bill
Is not passed the old pension system
VIII be resorted to should not be
taken too seriously. While there is
nothing legally to prevent shoulder
ing the country with vast pension
charges, it is difficult to imagine that
any serious efforts to do SO will be
made.
One of the main purposes Of the
war risk insurance act was to fore
stall the creation of pension sys-
tenn. With this idea in mind three
principal provisions were made. The
first was in the nature of a family
allowance during the war. The en-
listed man with a dependent family
had to contribute not more than SO
per cent of his pay to his family.
To this sum the government added
Sl5 month for a wife, $25 for a
VIE ana one child, and increasing
sums up to $50 for larger families,
The second provision was in the
form of compensation for injury or
death during the war. This varied
from $50 to S100 month, in ac-
cordance with the nature of the in
jury, or from $40 to SIS in case Of
death. The third provision was for
life insurance, which the govern
ment offered at minimum rates.
1t was felt at the time that This
system would render pensions un-
necessary. Nothing has since arisen
to alter this opinion.
To raise the pension bogey, there
fore, in an attempt to force the pas
sage of the bonus bill is misleading.
Not even the bonus advocates want
a pension system. They are fully
aware of it's evils. In fact, they look
upon the bonus not as a form of
pension but as adjusted compensa-
ton for services inadequate.y paid.
The immediate question before the
