News stories telling of the blockade of Canadian wheat at Butfalo and other Great Lakes ports must bring forcibly to the attention of Nebraska farmers the fact that their interest in wheat docs apt end once their own product is in the elevator or even at the primary terminal market. Conditions far east and concerning grain grown a thousand miles from Nebraska, when they tend to monopolize railroad cars and motive power, may interfere with Ne braska's ability to sell its own crop at a fair price or even to market it at all. The records show that Canadian railroads on September 27 placed a virtual embargo on ship ments of grain from the United States for export through Canadian ports. Since that time almost no grain grown south of the border has been so shipped. In this period, however, 71,000,000 bush els of Canadian wheat has been shipped down the lakes to the American border and cither has been trans-shipped to the Atlantic coast on American railroads or is awaiting shipment. This ties up American elevators and railroad cars greatly needed to carry the product of the western states to Omaha. Chicago and export terminals. When American railroad facilities at best are inadequate for the needs of American shippers, it is doubly embarrassing'to imve the situation made still moru critical for the benefit of foreign shippers. There may be some question as to the power of any governmental agency to impose an embargo, but cer lainly some way should be found—either by govern ment or by the American railroads—to put America first. CHANGES PROPOSED BY NORRIS. Two conflicting impulses struggle within the breast of the American electorate. One of these is to favor anything that is new or savors of change. The other is to oppose any departure from the old ways. Neither of these attitudes of mind provides the proper method of considering the proposal of Senator Norris for an amendment to the constitu tion designed to make the federal government more directly responsive to the people. The fact that in Great Britain a new parliament has gone into session immediately after election, while in America the congress which was elected at about the same time will not meet in regular ses sion for a ytar has made it appear that there is in this respect less popular rule in this republic than in the British kingdom. A similar contrast appears in the prompt installation of the new British prime minister. When a similar change of administra tion was ordered by the voters of America, it will be remembered, Wilson retained his office four months, while President-elect Harding was forced to wait from November to March before putting in force his policies. The Norris amendment would inaugurate the president the third week in January following elec tion and would convene each new congress the first week in January. The same proposals are made in the reesolution of Senator Ashurst, which has been endorsed by a number of prominent lawyers. How ever, Senator Norris goes further in advocating an added clause to abolish the electoral college and to elect president and vice president by direct vote of the people. Inasmuch as each state would retain its present proportionate influence and the decision would not be made by totaling up national ma jorities, the objection can not be made that this would diminish state rights. The question here is how dose the power of government should be placed to the people. Under this section of the proposed amendment, it would be possible to have a president of one party and a vice president of another. It would also enable an outstanding national figure to run for the presidency independently of any party nomination. Under the present system, by which the people do not vote for president, but merely for party electors who meet and choose the presi dent, it is necessary to file a list of electors in each st^te. The machinery is so complicated and in direct that it is practically impossible for any man to run independently. The whole question of party government is bound up in this section. Side by side with this movement is one within the separate states for the establishment of direct primaries for the nomina ,ion of presidential candidates. Thus would entire responsibility for the choice of president and vice president be placed on the voters, without interven tion by any national political conventions. While the proposal for more prompt installation of president and congress seems advisable, the pro posal annexed to it, for the direct election of presi dent, requires deep consideration. All in all, the long line of American presidents has averaged up much better than any line of kings, or even of prime ministers. In general attainments our presi dents have also been above the average of congress. The two suggestions contained in this proposed amendment should be separated and each consid ered on its merits. WHY IOWA WON'T PLAY YALE Iowa and Yale gridiron warriors wiil not meet in football fray next season. And it is well. Yale is one of the ''Big Three.” The triumvirate of college football does not believe in games away from home. Iowa, champions of the 1921 Big Ten confer ence season and undefeated again in 1922, went down to the Yale bowl last fall and gave the Blue a decisive beating. N When the schedules were being made out tor next fall, Yale "invited” Iowa to return to the Yale bowl for another game. Iowa declined. “Conte west,” said the Hawkeyes. and we 11 play.” , But Yale demurred. Yale loses in prestige by this move. Princeton, conquerors of both Yale and Harvard this year, "came west" to Chicago and won after the Maroons seemed about to beat vhe Tiger. Princeton won the tesoect of the middlewest. ONE MODERN ADVANTAGE Any attempt to find a mitigating circumstance , ' in connection with a train week is almost doomed in advance to defeat. The crash of cars at niglif 1 is terrible in any of its aspects; men, women and children are caught, ami crushed, some to die, others 1 crippled and maimed, and alt to suffer terror and 1 agony. Yet _ occasionally out of the calamity flashes ; something that indicates that man has made some progress. Three crowded coaches of a train run- ; ning out of Omaha were overturned i-n Iowa Sun day night, and 130 persons were injured, but no lives were lost. This fortunate outcome is due lo one of the modern conveniences that has become so common that it is no longer looked upon as the miracle ft really is. Not so many years ago the account of a train wreck usually contained the announcement that “ihe wreck caught fire from the coals of an over turned stove,” or “the exploding lamps threw blaz ing oil over the wreck and so oh all was wrapped in flames.’’ In the wreck on Sunday night, as soon as the first shock of fright had passed, the passen- j gers discovered that the cars were still lighted, for , the electric connections were working? line. Then i it was only a question of untang'.ing from baggage ] and seats and confusion, and making the way out ! of windows. Once in a while a modern invention justifies it- | self by taking some of the horror out of a disaster ; that easily might have been terrible if the mitigat- ’ ing agent were not present. SHORTCOMINGS OF CIVILIZATION. One of the major sins of civilization is its waste- , fulness. This is not to say that the use of anything: that adds to the welfare or happiness of mankind is to be condemned if it does not bring in some benefit that tan be computed in dollars and cents. No, the real waste is the failure to utilize the good things of life to the utmost. To leave food to rot on the trees or in the liebl is waste, criminal waste for which society as a whole is to blame. To allow vast stretches of fertile land to remain unproductive for the lack of water that lies at hand in a river is waste. To neglect the op portunity for cheap water transportation is waste. Unemployment, poor management of industry and bor disputes that stop production are waste ful. So also are wages that do not permit the work ers to enjoy comfortable clothes, good housing, nu tritious food, books, travel, art, music and all that goes to make up wholesome leisure and recreation. Complete elimination of waste in industry would give every worker in the country all the comforts of life that are now available to the man earning $150 a week, delegates to the New York state indus trial conference were told by an engineering expert. He explained that he was not speaking of an actual wage of $150 a week, but that his view was that by abolishing wasteful practices the cost of produc ing goods would be reduced to a fraction of the present figure. Money wages might not be increased, but what counts is the amount that can be bought with wages. Through standardization and efficiency the waste of industry is steadily being reduced. The effect is not as yet noticeable, but a great part of human progress may well be looked for in more efficient working and living. The spectacle of ardent democrats traveling to Lincoln to give advice to Brother Charley is more amusing than'' interesting. Brother Charley gives advice; he doesn’t take it. The Sunday schol barometer shows high pres sure these days, with high pressure in the offing and a heavy fall of candy and sweetmeats about December 25. It would seem that Italy pulled a “flivver” when it turned Mr. Ford’s offer down amidst loud official laughter. The real sentiments of the giver are not always manifest in the price tag attached to the gift. Booze at the steering wheel means the under taker at the front door. « Ways of Using Surplus Potatoes ' 1 From the Drover* Journal-Stockman. On account of the crop of surplus potatoes in ve nous sections of the United States, the question as to the use of the extra supply and also culls is an im portant one. One of the men in this country who has given considerable attention to the utilization of the potato is H. C. Gore of the bureau of chemistry of the United States Department cf Agriculture. Mr. Gore states that at the end of the recent world war about twelve factories were dehydrating (the term means drying) potatoes In the United States and at least four factories were operating in Canada. Since the war. production has largely ceased, although some | dehydrated potatoes are still being produced to be used j principally as an ingredient of the dehydrated soup vegetables. TWo kinds of dehydrated or dried potatoes are made, dried sliced potatoes and dried rice potatoes, the for mer being produced in greater quantities than the latter. In manufacturing the former potatoes are peeled, trimmed, sliced from to U inch thick, par boiled In steam or boiling water, spread 6n trays, and dried in a current of warm air until brittle. Rlced po tatoes are made by peeling and trimming.'cooking the i tubers in steam until soft, and forcing thorn through a ' die plate when hot. The shreds which arc obtained are ■ received directly on the drying tray and dried. The I peeling is done by machines, but the trimming is a | hand process. j The time of heating varies from two to twelve min utes and many different forms of driers are used. From | the standpoint of uniformity and high quality of prod ucts. forced draft driers have proved to be very suc l eessful. Cooked Irish potatoes are fairly resistant to ; heat and can stand drying for ten or twelve hours, at . 120 degrees Fahrenheit without detriment. They are more readily damaged by moist than by dry beat. If the finished product Is dried to a moisture con tent of 10 per cent or less. It will keep indefinitely In air-tight containers without spoiling. It has been found out. however, that unless the moisture content is reduced to 6>a per cent or less, slow browning will occur on keeping at or above room temperatures. When kept In air-tight containers at low temperatures, the original color may be retained indefinitely. Dehydrated potatoes are a great convenience in ho tels, dining cars, restaurants and oth^r institutions and on shipboard, chiefly because their use obviates the necessity of peeling and trimming. "There Is now no wide market for dehydrated potatoes." says Mr. Qore. "Should a demand for them arise, however, a logical location for factories would be the potato pro ducing centers which are near enough to large cen ters of population to afford the necessary labor. In Germany, as a result of persistent effort an im portant process ha* been developed to convert the perishable potato into stable form. This is done by a steam drying method In which the potatoes are con verted Into potato flakes, which are later milled Into flour. Several factories in the United State' now usd the flake process. The supply of potatoes required for a factory each season is from 150 to 200 cars distributed through a season of from 150 to 200 days. Sound potatoes under United States grade No. 1 arc used and rots are not acceptable. The capital required for a factory is about $250,000. The flour Is used prin ! clcally as a bread Imurover and has other baking uses.

Omaha.—To (he Editor of The Omaha Bee: The so-called language law of Nebraska will he up for con sideration before the Nebraska legis lature at Its coming session. Reason enough exists for asking that the drastic terms of the Reed-Norval law. as Interpreted by the sirfireme court of the stale, he modified. What is asked is not that education in the English language he displaced in the Schools of the state. AVe understand that the official language of the state should he understood by all its citi zens. but that is no reason why all the citizens should ho restricted to the ttsp of a single language. As long as the requirements of the law are carried out, in letter and in spirit, what harm ran possibly result from teaching a ch id another lan guage? A man's reverence for and belief in Cod, or Ills patriotic devotion to the interests of the country in which he lives, cannot he measured by the lan guage he speaks. The late war proved this to the satisfaction of anyone who is not too bigoted or hide bound to admit the fact. I'nder the Reed-Norval law only ane day In the week, thut observed as Sabbath, can he devoted to teaching a child who has not attained and passed the eighth grade a foreign language. The court says this is to make sure that the child is well grounded in English before permitting it to take up another tongue. But, if the child regularly attends the day school, as provided for by law-, and there re ceives instruction exclusively in Eng lish. will it not be as Well grounded in English, if at convenient times and without interference with the regular course, it also he given in struction in another tongue? All children of the state should be so educated that they will become good American citizens, loyal to their country, its laws and its flag, ifnd this means they must know its lan- , guage well. But should that limit them to one language? AVe do not believe such was the intention of the legislature. Judge Eetton fairly ex pressed this view- in his dissenting opinion, where he says there is no better reason for refusing to let a child study a language outside of school hours than there is to forbid a child to study music or take dancing lessons. i Bet us have a language law that will protect out* schools and our citi zenship. but not one that puts a bar on a child's opportunity to obtain a complete education, and to learn more than a single language, especially when that bar may be lifted without doing any harm or weakening the law' that wisely reeks to make all acquainted with the official language of the state ip which thev live. HENRY E. KROIlMIBBER. | A Woman Replies lo "Real Man.” Sargent, Neb.—To the Editor of The Omaha Bee: Oh. please, dear editor, do not let “A Beal Man” turn the women loose with their automobiles on the prairies of Nebraska. They might run over the family cat instead of the prairie dogs mentioned—we have our prairie dogs pretty well e* terminated anyway and do not need their assistance. Some woman has petved "Mr. A R.

Omaha.—To the Editor of The Omaha Bee: An article appeared in the paper in regard to women driv ing automobiles. I hasre had sev eral years' experience driving in large cities where traffic is handled with skill. I find women are no better than men to use common horse sense. They cut in and head one off and seem to think they own the street and town. They won't even take their turn where there is no traffic officer. It should be against the law for any woman to drive a car. They do not look to see what is coming or going, lots of times, and it looks like they don't care. TRUCK DRIVER. N'o Doubt.

The Automobile Association of America is after the signboard adver tisements which line so many of the nation's highways. In the first place it believes that such signs mar the beauty of the landscape, and. in addi tion, it feels that the billboard consti tutes an absolute menace to the mo- | torist by attracting Ills attention from the l oad ahead, often causing a more or less serious accident. But it is difficult to see what the i association can do about it. If the merchant prefers to spend his money on billboards rather than in the news- I paper, his good judgment may fairly j lie questioned, but the fact remains [ that it is his money that he is spend ing. Tho association official likewise thinks that the day of billboard adver tising lias passed. He says: "These signs serve as a distinct menace to motorists, especially when they are placed, as many of them nre, at a sharp curve or a road inter section. A motorist, driving along the highway and approaching such a sharp curve or road intersection wants to see what is aiHund that curve or down the intersecting road much more than he want* to see a huge sign advertising "Whor.ir" tires or somebody's patent medicine or chewing gum." He likewise thinks that the day of billboard advertising has passed. ’8'Matter? From the Louisville Courier-Journal. Senator Hitchcock is not staging an inspiring exhibition by taking up the time of the senate with daily ha rangues on the alleged horrors of black troops In Germany.% The bad tste and bad temper of the perform ance might be excused if there were any practical good to be accomplished by it. It is bad taste, as a host, while charging Clenienceau with bad taste as a guest, to Indict Clemenceau's country with charges of crimes against civilization uni. when Clemen ceau denies the charges, to attempt to convict him of lying. And it Is bad Judgment as well as bad taste to attempt to do this by reading in the senate a lot of letters by irresponsible writers. Mr. Hitch cock thus places himssif on precisely the same plane on which the late Torn Watson won so much additional notoriety by trying to prove by irre sponsible letter writers that scores of the members of the A. E. F. had been hanged during the war. What is the matter with Mr. Hitch cock. anyway?
