Et Tu, Chicago.

Citizens of Chicago maintain bureau OF pub
lie efficiency which is carefully scrutinizing what
happens to the money contributed to the munich
pal treasury. In letter addressed to the board
Of education this organization sets forth the fol-
lowing facts:
School taxes are now nearly two and half
times as much as they were four years ago.
Nearly 40 cents out of each dollar paid by tax
payers is going to the support Of schools. If
the budget now under consideration by the
board of education is not amended, taxes next
year will be higher.
In commenting on this the Chicago Evening
Post says truly that the taxpayers of Chicago
ought to be willing to bear whatever burden is
necessary to provide an adequate and thoroughly
efficient system of public schools. No good citi-
zen will advocate parsimony in education. 1t con-
tinues:
"If it can be shown that it is absolutely es-
sentL for the welfare OF the future generation
that we be taxed to the limit of what the law will
permit and the available resources can afford,
then we must grin and bear the burden. Our
biggest job is education. But we ought to be
shown"
Omaha's school expense, and that OF prac-
tieally every rural district in Nebraska, mas gone
- u much the same way as that OF Chicago.

A Party Deserted.

From Lincoln comes news OF strange things
beins done or attempted in Nebraska politics.
Political leaders are moving as upon stage;
the scenes are being shifted; new costumes are
being donned; various lines are being spoken.
Mr.. Wray, third party candidate for governor,
is switched 10 the senatorial lists. Mr.. Norton,
who three weeks ago was devoted to the iarm
bureau and would have naught to do with
politics, changes his mind and becomes eandi-
date not OF the third party which adores HIM
but of the democratic party, with condescend-
ing willingness to accept third party endorse
men, And Charles w. Bryan writes OF united
Nebraska democracy, an act which results IN MS
being publicly kissed by the newspaper which
ior so many years he has ferventy denounced
as the mouthpiece of everything politically
wicked
These are the moves OF the actors on the
stage. But who writes the lnes' Who pulls
the wires that shift the scenes? Who presumcs
to make play OF the serious issues which the
third party was formed to meet, to barter and
trade with its name and its support? Who, in
iact engineers the job?
II is not by chance that these things happen.
Not by chance is Mr. Bryan caressed at the
very moment that third party leaders are attempt
ing to make this ambitious organization mere
tail to the democratic donkey. Something is in
the wind Mr. Bryan is admirably frank in his
analysis of the situation. He says: 1T takes
the third party out of Nebraska politics as fac
tor this year." That is what he hopes it will do,
undoubtedly. Norton is the bell-wether. Mr..
Bryan hopes the sheep will follow. True, Mr..
Wray persists as an independent, but as can
didate not for governor but for United States
senator. The state ticket is forsaken Has Mr..
Wray figured out what will happen to his own
bob-tailed candidacy if the Norton-Bryan fusion
program is carried out? Does his left hand know
what his right hand has agreed to?
Does the third party know what has hap
pened to it, or what is to become Of it?
It is all very interesting, particularly to those
third party members who thought they were Or
ganizing modern crusade for righting economic
and political evils which oppressed them.

Communism in Army and Navy.

Aiming at no particular organization, Secre-
taries Weeks and DENLY have broadcasted 4
warning to army and navy against what they
denominate "insidous propaganda" Perhaps,
if they were called upon they could partcularize,
but their announced intention is to counteract
any effort to sow disloyalty among the men in
the defense establishments Agents of the forces
OF disorder are always active, and experience has
taught them that dissatisfied men are easiest to
approach Our soldiers and sailors have ample
reason for feeling dissatisfied just at present. be-
cause Of the action of congress in its cutting
and slashing of appropriations for the support Of
the defense establishments. Men who have en-
listed in either have done so largely because Of
the implied contract Of employment. This obli-
CATION on part of the government is being over
looked by the group that is bent on the reduc-
ton of forces through the cutting down of ap-
preparations. No authority or power can COM
pei the government to keep on its payroll men it
does not need, nor should any hope to be so re-
tanned, yet more reasonable way might be
found to lower the number of men in the army
and navy than by wholesale discharge, especially
at time when industry has not fully recovered
from postwar depression, and unemployment
still is prevalent Radicals recognize this, if the
congressman do not, and are quick to seize upon
the opportunity thus made to disturb the attach
ment Of men affected to the government that is
playing fast and loose with them.

lated, made specific provision for the German and
Russian participation This formula will not now
be abandoned by France, nor is England inclined
10 give countenance to reputation,
Peace in Europe depends on the recognition
OF certain outstanding facts. France and Bel
gium expect TO be ndemnihed for losses sus.
,ained during the war. Also, France expects
Russia to pay its debts. These expectations are
justified. and will undoubtedly be realized, no
matter how far the present generation OF
politicians may 80 in their attempts to dodge
the plain truth.
Germany. according TO all accounts, is busy;
factories are working overtime, outpu, is sold
months ahead, and dealers contract on the basis
OF the American dollar, scorning the nconse-
quent mark. France knows this and 50 demands
payment.
Russia has been devastated by the proletariat
beyond even what was done in France by ruth
lessly efficient invader. Moreover. the Russian
loss OF man-power incident to the war was in.
significant when compared to the Russian loss OF
man-power resulting from soviet control. The
millions who died in battle are scarcely more
than handful to the multitudes that have per.
ished from starvation, disease and cold since
1917, drain on the resources Of the land that
will not be recovered from for generations,
Restoration Of Russia involves something
more than the opening Of the country to exter.
nj communication. Industry must be built from
the ground up, and this will take longer time
there than it does in France, because the French
can help themselves and the Russians must have
help from outside. Chitchcrin's proposal for dis
armament is certain to get full consideration, be-
cause it is pressing problem, but Lloyd George
gave him good advice when he said:
Let N. Chitcherin finish this VOYAGE and 90
home with all he can carry; then we will wei

Completion of an important realty transfer was announced yesterday between the city of Birmingham, and the Estes Lumber company, whereby the latter company secures from the city by purchase what Is known as the North Birmingham city hall. The consideration was not stated.
 The Estes Lumber company now owns two entire city blocks at the location of the North Birmingham hall, the purchase of the old city hall building making up the needs of the lumber company to acquire this full amount of property. The build ing occupies the site at Twentieth street and Twenty eighth avenue, north, facing 50 feet on Twentieth street and 125 feet on Twenty-e eighth avenue. It has ben recently occupied By the North Birmingham fire station. and as soon as the fire com pany can move out. the Estes com rany will take charge and make the two-story brick structure into a modern office building, which will be entirely occupied by the offices of this rapidly growing concern.
 In addition to their North Birming- lam plant, the Estes company owns yards in Ensley and Woodlawn. w. Thornton Estes is president of the company.
