WORRY ABOUT
from the deluge of blood.
To the American people the day
did not perhaps bring as great a re
Mef as it did to the nations of Eu
rope on whose soil the war had been
waged from August 1, 1914, and
whose powers of resistance had been
worn to the point of breaking when
the great khaki clad army came from
across the sea to decide on the land
of France the issues of the war. But
to the men who served in the
of the American republic the day has
a significance that all the years can
efface or the glory of the triumph
of American arms be dimmed by the
efforts of those in our land who would
belittle the service of the men of the
nation or the greatness of the issues
that were fought out amid the hills
if eastern France and across the low
lands of Belgium in the days from
September to November 19 IS, when
the American might was putting
aside the dream of a war-maddened
kaiser and his bloodthirsty general
staff for world domination.
There are memories of this day
in the hearts of those who served and
those who at home bore the cross of
a separation that must come to them
as long as life shall last, that the
coming of armistice day will always
refreshen. The graves mat lie row
on row amid the beauties of the Ar
genne hill; in France or in the ceme
teries of our own land speak of those
who have gone before and that with
held from the breast of the land they
loved, the torch of war, that America
might not know- the ring of the
marching host of the invader or that
our cities might not feel the destruc
tion of their beauties or American
homes the lustful vengeance of the
foe. Hail to these saviors of their
nation on this day of memory.
While November 11th silenced the
crash of war, there are today over
the land those to whom the war is
still as vivid as of yesterday and who
still bear on their bodies the mark
of sacrifice or in their shattered
minds can picture the horrors of the
war that was. These have paid and
are paying daily the price of a pa
triotism that is an honor to the Amer
ican republic. To these the nation
iiwos an undying obligation which
they can poorly pay with any act that
they may do.
There is at Washington, shattered
and broken, the man who led the na
tion in the conflict that brought glory
to our arms and on this day the na
tion and particularly those who serv
ed, greet Wood row Wilson, our commander-in-chief,
who too has paid
the price of service even unto the
gates of death.

In the final quarter Putney, quarter

COMMUNIST HEADS
DISCUSS PLANS FOR
WORLD REVOLUTION
"United Front" Policy Adopted So
cialists of America Branded as
Traitors to Comnrunism.
Moscow. Nov. 12. The cingress of
the world's communist leaders Fri
day discussed tactics for bringing
about a world revolution to establish
proletariat dictatorship everywhere.
It was decided that a "united front"
policy must prevail. A united front is
explained as mixing into every labor
dispute and participating in every
strike and working with the labor
parties and labor unions, even with
the hated socialists, in order to win
the workers to the red cause. United
front tactics is a reversal from the
former "divide and conquer" policy.
Most bitter attacks were launched
not against the bourgeoise. whom
the communists want to conquer, but
against the labor parties and social
ist parties as they are known in Eng
land. America and elsewhere, which
were summed up as followers of the
second internationale.
It was declared that "the world is
ready for communism, but the second
internationale stands in the way. The
third internationale must strive to
win the majority of workers. It may
take years it may not happen be
fore our next session."
The socialist parties as they exist
in America, Germany and England
are called traitors and the tools of
the bourgeoise.

PERUVIANS GO
DOWN TO DEFEAT
HERE YESTERDAY
Washington. Nov. 1". The press
ing of several important t:ix revision
proposals in the sixty-eichth con
gress was forecast today by some
leaders of the "progressive" republi
cans and the democrats on the basis
of the sharp chances in the sizes of
the majority and minorities in the
house and senate as a result of Tues
day's elections. They said revision
propositions would come from both,
the majority and minority sides.
Chief among the tax plans of the
republican "progressive's" i- an im
post on tlie udistribut'-d surpluses
of corporations, affecting :lso sunk
dividends. Such a tax also favored
by the democrats in the vi-w of Rep
resentative Oldfield of Arkansas, the
minority "whip."
Mr. Oldfield also expressed the
opinion that the demicrats would fa
vor the re-enactment of the excess
profits taxes, but in a modified form;
increased inheritance taxis on a
graduated scale, and the imposition
of a gift tax in an effort to rea h
those of wealth seeking to avoid In
payment of high surtaxes through
gifts of money to relatives.
These taxes have been oppose. 1
heretofore by administration officers,
who have made it plain that they
have not now in mind any general
revision of the existing revenue law.
which was enac ted late lat year and
which became generally effective last
January 1.
Proponents of the proposed chang
es expressed confidence today, how
ever, that with the chance in the
house membership in the new con
gress, they would have more than an
even chance of success. "Progressive"'
republican leaders in their estimates
of strength count on almost solid
democratic suprort for their propos
als, and likewise th- democrats look
to the left wing of the majority par
ty for support for their program.
There seems to be more doubt in
the minds of these leaders about the
situation in the senate, but their ex
pressed hope that with an increased
democratic and republican "progres
sive" vote their revision plan could
be put through. They pointed out
that it was the senate as now con
stituted that upset the original pro
posal to reduce the maximum income
surtax to 22 per cent.

School Wins by Score of
to 0 One of Best Games
Ever Played Here.
From Saturday's Dally.
Yesterday afternoon the Platts
mouth high school football team won
from the Peru Demonstration high
the opening pre-1 school on the local gridiron by a
if the Missouri 1 score 9 to 0, in one of the hard
est iougnt games or the season and
one in which both teams displayed
some effective work although the
locals were clearly the more skilled
in handling the pigskin.
The visitors depended largely on
their aerial work to win. but which
was broken up frequently by the
locals with the result that the visi
tors lost ground repeatedly on their
attempts at passes.
In the opening quarter the fans
were heavy hearted as the wild Pe
ruvians swept onward toward the
Plattsmouth goal and the defense of
the locals was apparently crumbling
as the series of line smashes with
the heavy Peru backfield carrying the
ball as well as two good passes, brot
the ball to within a few yards of the
Plattsmouth line and a touchdown
seemed inevitable, but the visitors'
weakened at the last opportunity
and fumbling an easy pass lost the
ball. The quarter ended with the
Plattsmouth team pressing the visi
tors in their territory.
