NEW UNION STATION is DEMANDED
The Best Sport
An Editorial .

"The United States is the best
sport among the nations. 1t knows
how to make war we'll, but more
important, it knows how to make
peace WELL" This statement by
DIR. A. w. Evans before the week
ly dinner of the Ad-Sell League
illustrates the habit of Americans
in refusing to bear grudges. 1t
is particularly appropriate at this
time when the citizens of Omaha
are raising a fund for the use
of undernourished and starving
children in Germany.
There are 100000 under
nourished German children. Two
million German children who are
actually starving. OF these near
ly two hundred thousand are
slowly dying and are beyond saw
ing. Hundreds of thousands more
are daily slipping into this class
of hopeless ones.
They are suffering from tuber-
culosis, from rickets, from
anemia, from pellagra and all the
other dread diseases that slowly
sap and kill.
America, the good sport of the
nations, cannot and will not with
hold its helping hand.
The nation that, after the
civil war, thrilled to the words of
that healing hymn, "the blue and
thefsgray," is thrilling again at
the healing solvent of childhood's
appeal.
In Omaha, in Nebraska, "out
where the ties of home are a wee
bit tighter" this healing influence
is at work. Every where, through
out city and state the response
to the appeal for starving Ger
man children is expressing itself.
As America is the good sport of
the nations Omaha and Nebraska
are the good sports of the nation

Railroad Heads Refuse
to Greet Depot Project
With Any Enthusiasm,

Discussion OF the new station
project was cautious in railroad
circles.
Carl r. Gray. president Of the
Union Pacific railway company does
not appear to favor a union station.
When asked for his opinion in re-
gard to the question; DO you not
think 1t would increase the efficiency
and economy OF all roads In Omaha
he replied.
Don't think il would. No"
E. Flynn, general manager or the
Omaha offices OF the Chicago, Bur
lington & Quincy Railroad company
is OF the same opinion.
I'VE already have a station which
is serving Omaha WELL" he said. II
this new project, of whico / nave
oeard very little. goes torough. It viii
mean scapping a fine building"
He denied neports that his company
was about to spend about se5o,oo0 for
Improvement OF the Burlington sta
tion.
I'VE thought at first to increase
the scope OF tne uiillrk fottiis puA VIC
shall certainly not do even thai II
the cost is very high he said.
Idea OF a subway connecting the
present Union depot TO the Burlins-
ton station is rioiculei by trainmen.
THE public would have Just as
many steps TO take" they says, III
It went under instead OF over the
tracks"
Attempt to put trains from the
Union and Burlington stations under
one roof was made during the war.
and according to Mr.. Flynn OF the
Burlington. II proved impractical.
There are now three railroad
terminals in Omaha. and several
small way stations, at Florence. in
South Omaha and at Thirty-second
and Poppleton avenue.
Through trains and limited trains
are accommodated by the two stations

Bonus Bill
Is Passed.
by House
Measure Provides for Paid.
Up 2O.Year Endowment In.
surance Policies-Vote
Is 355 to 81.
To Cost $2,ll9,000,00O

Washington, March 1s.-The house
today for the third time in four years
passed soldier bonus bill. The vote
was S55 to 81, and was taken after
40 minutes debate.
Twenty speakers took the floor.
die. .hards' OF both parties declared
against the measure on principle,
while proponents argued it was a
measure which could become a law.
The measure provides for paidup
20.year endowment life insurance poll
cies and cash payments to veterans
entitled to not more than $50 in ad-
justed service credit. Provision OF
the old bill for vocational training
and farm and home aid are elimi-
mated.
Provisions Changed.
The insurance provision Is some
what different from the deferred pay
ment certificates proposed in the old
BILL and because of these changes
the measure faces an involved situa-
tion in the senate. Members of that
body have asked time to study the
rev bill, while others already have
prepared different proposals. The
finance committee, to which the meas
urs will be referred, is now occupied
with the tax reduction bill.
Chairman Green of the ways and
means committee, who introduced the
bill, reminded the house during the
debate preceding the vote. that the
two previous measures had not been
enacted into law "for reason known
to ALL" and insisted this measure
will and must become law
Able to Override Veto.
The vote today showed SO more
than the two-thirds necessary to pass
Il bill over a veto. Although veterans,
larticularlv on the democratic side,
litterly assailed the measure because
il failed to carry al option for full
ea sll payments. only 20 democrats and
81 republicans voted against 1t.
.snalysia OF the vote showed III demo-
efats, l75 repubicans and the three
independents voting for the measure.
s'our members voted present and nine
did not vote.
The maximum cost OF the bill is
estimated at s2,119, 100000, spread
ever 90 years The highest annual
maximum cost would come In the
first year and Is estimated at $780,
odo. 900. The bill provides for an ap-
13ropriation not to exceed $1OO,00o,o 900
for next year to meet the cost OF the
measure.
