LEGION SEEKS
UNDERSTANDING
MINNESOTA STATE COMMITTEE
OUTLINES BEST WAYS TO FOS-
TER PEACE-RESOLUTIO BY
FIDAC COMMITTEE.

Ten million world war veterans of
all nations, through their respective
patriotic societies, are united in an in
ternational federation called FIDAC,
derived from the first letters of the
French words denoting this interallied
organization. When the Minnesota
American Legion state FIDAC COM
mittee, of which F. Ben Andreen of
New Ulm is chairman, met recently, it
adopted the following recommends
tionS:
l. There is necessity for increased
knowledge and understanding by the
peoples of this world of questions con-
corning foreign relations and problems
concerning world peace.
knowledge and the intelligent use
of that knowledge are the basis for
action whether it be an individual or
in concerted manner by a nation or
group of nations. Therefore, we re-
quest that all posts comply with the
suggestion of national headquarters by
sponsoring an annual public meeting
for an intelligent discussion and Seri-
Gus contemplation of the problems af-
fecting world peace.
2. We believe the Kellogg peace
pact to be an intelligent departure
from the previous recognition of war
as legitimate instrument for settling
disputes between nations. We do not
believe that the Kellogg peace pact
is a panacea which alone will do away
with war. However, we believe it is a
step in the right direction.
8. We further believe in the estab-
lishment of an equitably constituted
world court as a substitute for the
arbitrament of recourse to arms as a
settlement of international difficulties
and as a logical step to follow the rati-
fication of the Kellogg peace pact.
4. We believe in concerted and
equitable disarmament of all nations
We do not believe that this step can
be taken by any one nation alone. We
do not imply that the U. S. should run
'helter skelter" into any thoughtless
disarmament program. We realize too
well the state of world unrest, the
jealousies and hatreds which are yet
rampant, to advocate a reduction in
our own armed forces without cor
responding reduction in the armed
forces of other nations.
5. We believe in the universal draft
act as an instrument OF peace, for it
centives for waging war-greed and
gold. The American Legion condemns
system which permits the drafting of
men into the army, where they are
given rifles and sent into the trenches
to risk their lives at $50 month, while
equally potential soldiers can go into
shipyards and munition factories and
make SIS day.
The American Legion condemns a
system which permits gamblers in steel
food and clothing to make unholy mil
lions from the blood which is shed on
the battle field. If men can be drafted
into army service, then labor and cap
ital can be drafted as we'll The en-
actment of the universal draft act into
law would encourage the adoption of
this system in other countries. When
greed and gold have been removed as
incentives to war, we have at the same
time removed one of the prime causes
for war.

not favorably considered.

PROFITS FOR SUBSCRIBERS

If endeavoring to advertise a newspaper
and subscriptions, should make much OF
the fact that every newspaper pays its own way into
the subscribers home and really costs nothing The
point is that it returns him more in dollars and
cents than he pays for it. We cannot imagine a
publication worthless that some item of infor-
nation in it, some bargain advertised some SER
vice performed, is not worth more to the subscriber
in real money than the cost of his subscription
Almost every newspaper puts money into the
pockets of non-subscribers well subscribers
This is conspicuously the case when the newspaper
leads a movement which saves taxpayers money. 1t
is the when the newspaper leads or supports
any movement which brings trade to the town in
which it is published. It is the case when the news
paper hammers for local Improvement spend
ing of dollar today that two may grow in it's place
tomorrow.
The weekly newspaper at two dollars year
costs the subscriber four cents issue. We defy
anyone to point out where the subscriber can spend
four cents and get equal amount of pleasure and
real value. Four cents willn OF buy much of any
thing else, but it will buy the weeks news of the
vice that is likely to be worth many dollars to the
reader. No other institution in the world exacts
little and returns much does the newspaper
Mr.. Hardfist Mr.. Sknfint buys out-of-town
publication because it is larger than the home paper
and deudes himself into the belief that he is getting
more for his money. Does he his name in
it, the of his friends? Does he ever see the
local jury list in it, the tax the legal adver-
tisements pertaining to his locality? Does he ever
see any of the hundreds of things having direct
relation to his living and his purse that that are
carried in the local paper? He never sees these
valuable things but he still has his two frogskins
grown septic from much fondling, and thinks the
saving of them has been an economy.-Publishers

speaks the Language

Johnny EoX can do this because he speaks the language of such people. Before he came to Con- gress he was intimately associated with them. He quit lucrative job as a raiiroad attorney once that he might devote his time to repre- Senting farmers, laborers, mechan- ics and ether such clients in the courts Of Texas.
 Since he has been in Washington he has interested himself chiefly in immigration. He believes in dras- tic restriction of immigration on the Western Hemisphere.
 Last summer he was asked to do a little sleuthing in the Southwest along the border and report to Congress what he found there. Jen- kins of Ohio, also a member of the House Immigration Committee, was delegated to conduct a similar in- vestigation
 Box started out. The country was familiar to him. He had tried cases from one end of the Texas border to the other.

WASHINGTON, March 22-Big, gool na5ured John Box of Texas, Dem 0eTatie whip of the House, de- cidad long ago that a personal investigation was of far greater help to him as a Representative in Congress than one conducted by a Cangres sional Committee.
 So when he is delegated to in- vestigate, usually he goes it alone.
 He did it in California when Congress was trying to get the facts on the Japanese immigration problem He nosed about railroad yards, talking to the workers, He rambled out into the country and chatted with the farmers, and h. sought out dives In the sluln dis tricts and noted what he saw there.
 In this way he gathered informa- tion that was of invaluable cid to him when he returned to wash ington.

SUCCESS OF BOYS CORN
 TEACHES DAD \ LESSON

CHATTANOOGA. Tenn, March 22.-After planting nondescript variety of corn for 100 years farm CTS in Hamilton County have learn cd a lesson from All club boys that has doubled their corn yield in many instances.
 Fourteen years ago, when boys club work was introduced, the only variety of corn grown in the section was a red cob variety, type grown ever since the county was settled.
 Improved corn planted by All club members was So successful that it was widely adopted.
