THEY DIE TODAY
Today 3.800 Americans die. That
is the average number that daily go
to join the billions who have passed
into eternity.
This year nearly 1,400,000 Amer
icans will die.
If they meet death at the same
time and In the same community
for instance, by earthquake or bat
tle the catastrophe would be talked
about for centuries.
But they slip away gradually, one
here, one there. So there Is no gen
eral excitement about their depar
ture. Of the 3,800 who die today, 27 are
murdered and 41 commit suicide.
Rather a bad record for each 24
hours.
The rest are nipped off the trees
of life by disease, old age and acci
dents. No matter how they happen to de
part, the last thought of most of
is: "It has been an interestng ex
perience. Life on earth is a journey.
I wonder where I came from and
where I am going?"
While 3,800 die today, 6,599 ba
bies give their first cry and are born
in America. That is striking an av
erage. As nearly as can be accurately fig
ured, about 2,400,000 babies will be
born this year in our country.
The births exceed deaths by about
1,000,000 a year.
Deaths are necessary to make room
for the newcomers.
These figures seem big. But to get
the total of deaths and births for the
whole world, you will have to multi
ply the American figures 'by at least
20. -
A pretty big organization is hu
manity, 28,000,000' dying and 48,
000,000 born each year.
One who can graps such big fig
ures is not apt to become conceited
about his individual importance.
And in the long run, after the des
ert sands have covered up civiliza
tions as they decline and vanish one
after another, the whole of man's
existence can be summed up in the
gigantic statistics of human deaths.
All roads lead to it, no detour.

GARY SAYS BUSI
NESS PROSPECTS
LOOKING BRIGHT
Steel Magnate Finds Nebraska among
States with Promising Outlook
when Conditions Clear.
Chicago, III, Aug. 30. E. II.
Gary, chairman of the United States
Steel corporation, in Chicago today,
on his way to New York from a va
cation spent chiefly in Colorado, said
that "there seems to be a general
feeling that activities are increas
ing and that great prosperity will
be witnessed whenever conditions re
lating to production and transporta
tion will permit."
Mr. Gary said he thought there
still was 'a good deal of profiteer
ing in business, building materials
and some trades as well." He added
that he looked upon the proposed ac
tion of Henry Ford, who has an
nounced he would close his automo
bile plants on September 16, unless
some way is found of obtaining fuel,
as simply a protest against paying
extortionate prices.
Mr. Gary, when questioned con
cerning general business conditions
said:
As you know, I have been away
from my office during the month of
August, and while I have been in
formed from time to time in a gen
eral way in regard to our business,
I am not sufficiently advised to give
information as to prevailing condi
tions or to make predictions in re
tard to the future.
"I mav with safetv sav that wher-
ever I have been, including particu-'
lariy Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska and
Colorado, there seems to be a general
feeling that great prosperity will be
witnessed whenever conditions re
lating to production and transporta
tion will permit.
'The farm communities of all the
states are still the backbone of the
nation. At the present time, how
ever, farmers are paying too much
for productive costs and are receiv
ing too little for their products.
"I think there is still a good deal'
a I 1 1 II. II
of profiteering in business, building i
materials, and in some trades, asl
well. To obtain satisfactory progress
ri .r;;;vr:r; ,T,7ro":'tition of the above named bankrupt
pie and all groups of people, every
one meeting strict observance of the
law and departmental rules adopted
pursuant to law.
'More and more everyone is made
to realize that only to the extent of
fair dealing, proper treatment, rea
sonable prices and faithful service
can it be expected that that confi
dence and patronage will be extend
ed." BLACKS ARE A TARGET
FOR HITCHCOCK'S WRATH
Calls Senate's Attention to Reports
of Crimes Committed by Black
Colonials on the Rhine.
Washington. Aug. 31. Calling at
ention to reports of crimes commit
ted by French black colonials on the
Rhine. Senator Hitchcock, Nebraska,
ranking democrat on the foreign re
lations committee, declared today in
he senate that it was the duty of
he American government to suggest
to Frauce the substitution of white
roop3.
"Reports of returning American
ravelers," said Senator Hitchcock,
liave brought news that France has
thousands of black troops quartered
among the German population and
hat repulsive crimes are again caus-
ng race hatred. We may sit idly by
while France in her folly proceeds to
cripple, if not crush the German re
public by demands for reparations
which ail the world knows Germany
annot possibly meet at this time.
But we as a nation are In part re
sponsible for tiie Rhineland being
under military occupation and it is
our right, as well as our duty to pro
test against quartering half civilized
black troops among white people
where they appear as conquerors and
act as criminals."
