Wilson Memorial Backed
BY Georgia Department

Friends of Woodrow Wilson in alb
parts of the United States will con-
tribute to a fund to establish a col
lege as a national memorial to him
in Georgia, the state where he grew
to manhood, in the opinion of Col.
Edward M. House, intimate friend and
personal adviser of President Wilson.
The memorial college to Wilson was
proposed by the department of Geor-
gia, American Legion.
In a recent interview with a repre-
sentative of the temporary board of
trustees for the proposed college,
Colonel House declared that he would
do all in his power to assist in the
establishment of such a memorial.
Pleasant A. Stovall, former minister
of Switzerland during the Wilson adj
m~inistration, who is leading the
movement to found the Wilson college,
said: "The value Of Colonel Houses,
support in this undertaking canno be
oyeremphasized. He is known the
world over as one of President vii.
sons closest friends"

To Lead the American People to a Study of the
Federal Constitution
By JOHN ". DAVIS, in New York Times.

ERHREE years ago the a American Bar association created its com
mittee on American citizenship, the duty of which is to lead the
American people to a more thorough study of our federal Con-
stitution and the theory of government underlying the same.
The need of this activity is seen when one asks his neighbor, "What
is meant by a government Of limited power ?" or asks the minister, "What
is meant by liberty regulated by law? or asks his lawyer tbs reasons for
the adoption Of the first ten amendments to the Constitution, or asks any
man in the street what is meant by our Bill Of Rights. The answers made
to these questions under such circumstances show that a very high proper
ton of American citizenship is Woefuly ignorant of the theory and the
form of our government.
The Constitution lays down two great fundamental rules which apply
to every citizen of the United States-the rule of equality and the rule Of
freedom. The rule Of freedom is that every person born or naturalzed in
the United States shall have all the rights and privileges which every other
citizen enjoys. There are no slaves. The rule of equality is: Wherever the
citizen comes in contact with the law, and wherever the law touches the
citizen, there shall be no distinction of race or creed or condition IN life
Every law-abdding citizen shall be free to live his own life, in his own
way in pursuit of his own interests and desires, so long as he respects the
same rights in his fellows. All that he earns by honest means shall be his,
and no man shall take it from him. Neither his life, his liberty nor his
property shall be taken from him save by due process of law. If he dis
obeys the law and thereby loses any of these rights, no punishment can be
imposed upon him until he has had a fair and open trial before a jury of
his equals. Hence, equality and freedom are the birthrghts which the
Constitution gives to every native or naturaized American.

LEGION

JOHNSON ACT WILL
BE UP FOR ACTION

Those provisions of the Johnson act,
World war legislation drawn up and
sponsored by the American Legion,
and caught In the legislative jam at
the close Of the last congress, will be
pressed for passage at the next session
by the national rehabilitation commit
tee of the Legion, according to Wat
son B. Miller, chairman.
Among the provisions to be pressed
for passage are: To permit the pay
ment of disability compensation retro
actively to April of 1917; to provide
a permanent rate of compensation for
arrested cases of tuberculosis; to pro-
vide for the reinstatement Of insur-
ance by disabled veterans who are UNI
able to pay the back premiums and in
terest to provide family allowances
for all beneficiaries who are totally
disabled; to remove all dates for the
conclusion of vocational training to
remove all time limits for the filing of
disability claims; to provide for the
setting up of a permanent medical
corps in the veterans bureau service.
Chairman Miller declared that it
will be necessary to secure an appro-
pBiation from congress at the Decem-
Der session amounting to approximate
" ~$13,850,000 so that the veterans
bureau can carry out it's program for
the construction of new veterans hos
pitfalls. During the last two sessions
authorization was granted to the direc-
tor of the bureau to expend $16,850,OO0
for this purpose, but due to legislative
complications arising at the end of
each session only $3,S50,0O0 actual
cash was appropriated.

Wilson's Policy of Neutrality Genuine; Efforts
for Peace Sincere
By ROBERT LANSING, in Current History.

Even after Count Won Bernstorf received his passports, President
Wilson continued to hope that he could persuade the benigerents to
negotiate peace, for four days after that momentous event he sent me a
memorandum on s"Bases of Peace" for my comment In the face of the
folly Of the German government in renewing indiscriminate submarine
warfare, Mr.. Wilson still believed that he could preserve neutrality and
become the mediator between the warning powers. His policy of neu-
trality was genuine and his efforts for peace were sincere. Several mem
bers of his cabinet, Of which / was one, were not in sympathy with his
attitude, but however strongly we felt that the President was wrong in
his attitude, loyalty to him as the head of the government compelled us to
support him. 1t was not, in fact, until the latter part of March that Mr.
Wilson reluctantly abandoned hope Of mediation and decided, with the
unanimous approval Of his cabinet, that the United States had no alter
native but to join the Allies in crushing Prussian autocracy and bringing
the war to al end by force of arms.

Should We Regard Our Earth as the Only Planet
With Intelligent Life?
By pR. ROBERT G. AITKIN, LICK observatory.

We have no hope at all Of discovering evidence that intelligent life
exists OF any Of the other planets in the solar system. Does that mean
that we should regard our earth as the only plane, sustaining intelligent
life? / think not.
l think that would be the most egottical and anthropocentrc con-
cuaon we could imagine. Our sun is only one Of several thousand mil
lion suns in our universe; it is not conspicuous for its size, nor unique in
its location (fr it il many hundreds of light years from the center of
the stellar syaem) nor distinguishable from thousands of other stars by
the quality of its light. Moreover, all of these millions Of suns are com
posed of elements identical with those known here n our earth.
Must there not among them be many having planets that are not
only capable of sustaining life, but that have intelligent beings dwell
ing upon them? I think an affirmative answer is the only reasonable con-
cluaon. even though we may never be able to establish it by direct OBJ
servation.

Make Home as Comfortable and Happy as
Your Means Will Permit
By EDWARD W. sTITT, New York City Public Schools.

Set proper standards for your children to follow. Be friends with
your children, walk and play with them occasionally. We must not live
above our children but with them. Do not scold too much Encourage
them to do their best. Let us remember what Phillips Brooks said: "Chil-
dren are white, spotted black; not black, spotted white" See that they
select proper friends and associates.
Make "home" as comfortable and happy as your means permit Give
your children at least a high school education. Train them in the habit
of regular attendance at church and Sunday school See that they avoid
all games of chance. A gambler never can be a success in life. See that
your children take plenty of physical training in the open air. It's better
exercise to walk than to ride in a Limousine"
Let your children feel that any honor which they win in school, or
any act Of courage, or unselfshness they may perform, will bring great
happiness to father and mother and put the family name on a higher
plane of honor. Do not forget that the future Of America depends upon
how your boys and girls are trained today, not on how you were trained
when you were children.
