What we need is an instilling in tl 3 souls of people, for seven days in tl e week, the recognition of Ixttcr re- Jir.ion uml "t or bettor or for wrse, till ikath do us pait.'"

Problem of Unemployment. Ho brought out the evil of unem ployment and in this connection stated that lietween four and seven million people arc now out of work in this country. Nationwide employment agencies fhould be established, he thought, to bi ng the man and the job together, anil that the government should make jobs by producing more work on the building of homes, over five million ho.nes being needed, the Jtilling of land not now in use, the replanting of the forests, and the enlargement of the waterway systems. "Jails will have to be built to check the wave of crime arising from unemployment, if some thing like this is not done," he con cluded. "The Knights of Columbus have done a great work in this connection," he said. He told of 110,000 night Fchools which had been erected by that body for the education of former serv ice men. "Service should be the watchword of tho hour," "declared Mr. Collins.

"In nnswvr to the uiM'on, 'What is Wro.ig With Hie" World," would an swer that: 'lack of harmony,' declared the sjwrikrr in closing hi. address. Mr. Collins then invited his audience to tisk any iUC:-tions thnt would help throw light on things which had not Imvh nu;iie rkr enough or had been in their mind regarding the subject at hand. The speaker was thrh asked by Dr. Minor Morris what the ctTect of bol shevism was on the institutions of Kurope. Air. Collins answered that in his opinion it was the greatest danger confronting the European nations to day. He .said that although it was al most unlelievable that fifteen million people had died in Russia as the direct eTcct of the Socialistic regime, while l.rnir.e, Trotsky and the other Ku.sian officials had lived in ease and comfort, "If the Kurnpenn nations recognize a government thut will commit such ciimes as this, that denies the very existence of a God, then I will say that the fall and decay of those na tions has begun. Thank God, that the iin tit stutpa. miuiei nv a statesman as farpeeing as Mr. Hughes, our sec rotnrv of tttnte. would not enter the Genoa conference, which is now going on. In summing up ne again saiu that he considered bolshevism the greatest menace to Europe at the present time, and that if the Russian government as it is toilay is recog nized by the nations of Europe, that the decay of those nations had begun.

CHURCH, SATURDAY, APRIL 13 American Legion Notes TACTS NOt"oFINIONS" Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis flatly refused to become an honorary member of the American Legion when the honor was offered him following his speech before the Mobile, Ala., post. "No man who has not the title of a world war veteran should be per mitted a place on the roll of the Le gion," he said. "I would give almof-t anything I have for that title." t Senator Hitchcock has supported bie adjusted compensation or bonus bill on several occasions, will continue to sup port it and vote for it when it comes before the senate, he writes in a let ter to Commander Bernard G. West over of the local American Legion. He agrees with the Legion that some of the high officials have been gurlty, p deception and vacillation- in their treatment of the measure. The Nebraska senator's lettei1 is in reply to a resolution passed by; the Lincoln post on March 3, vigorously condemning Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, Director Forbes of the veter an's bureau, and Comptroller of the Treasury Cresinger, .for issuing in their official capacities propaganda directed against the bonus, and tiro- tesung agmst thus diverting lunds and energy from the departments and tak ing time which could be better used in speeding up the work of the govern ment branches affected. Senator Hitchcock's letter follows: ', "I agree with you that the treatment of the bonus question, by those in au thority, has. been most unsatisfactory. Indeed,' I believe it would have been far more creditable to have taken the position of open and unqualified oppo sition to the bonus than to indulge in the practice of vacilliation and de ception and disagreement which lias marked the treatment for months. "I am not on any committee hand ling this subject, but when it comes before the senate I expect to vote for it and support the adjusted, compensa tion act. In fact, I have on several occasions voted for the proposition when it came before us in the form of amendments to othf r bill. Yours truly, "G. M. HITCHCOCK, U. S. S.' - Evidence of the desire of forme service men to go back to the farm ii constantly reaching the interior de partment, Secretary Fall announces, adding that more than 100,000 such ap plications nave Deen received for em ployment in developing land. In addi tion, inquiries concerning available land are coming in by the hundreds of thousands, the secretary said. The correspondence is largely from farm trained, men who are "not ap pealing for a gratuity," he said, "but are seeking an opportunity to acquire a home on the land by utilizing their labor and experience." . "It is significant that the bulk of these inquiries generally come from states wherein the prices of land have reached such heights that opportuni ties for men of small capital to ac quire a home are extremely limited. Among these States Illinois rnnlra first, with 18,6d0 inquiries, and appli cations ior lanu. "Farm land prices In this state aver age among the highest in the union." "Conditions are much the same in Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas and part of Nebraska, where land hun ger on the part of the war veterans is shown bv 45.620 inuuiries rerjvL Of these 26,900 made application for worn in order to secure a home." The reclamation service, Secretary Fall said, during the past two years has been able to offer former soldiers only 490 farms, although 50,000 in quiries were received and 7,480 ser vice men applied for farms. More than five million stars, of which 129,979 will be gold, the others blue, will stud the dome of the gigan tic assembly hall in the national Vic tory Memorial building now in process of erection at Washington. It is ex pec ted to be completed for the in augural ceremonies in 1925. The dome will really be an Ameri can service flag, bespangled with stars in geographical groups; a gold star for every one who died in the country's service in the world war, a blue star for the others who served in the army, navy and marine corps. That each star may be identified by initials or full name so future visitors will be able with the aid of a telescope on the floor below and guided by a grouping diagram, to locate a particu lar star, are details of the plans of Mrs. Henry F. Dimock, president of the George Washington Memorial as sociation and the guiding spirit of the undertaking. Total men and women who served in army, navy and marine corps, 5,061, c32. Total deaths from all causes in world war in above services, 12!),979. The number of men from Nebraska who lost their lives in the world war is: Army, 1,512; Navy, t4; Marine corps, 32; total, 1,628.
