You should know that
J Omaha has many splendid factory
sites awaiting development and
offers unusual inducements to
great industries.
Article X is beginning to look like "XX."
At that, three cases of "2.75" is not an es
pecially heavy cargo.
Perhaps you have noticed that the Luden
dorff apologia has finally "made the frontpage."
If one or two pickpockets were landed in
jail it might relieve the public apprehension
tome.
One thing demonstrated by Borah's visit is
that the people are not unanimous for the
league.
THE LEAGUE AND THE LAW. '
One of the regrettable features of the dis
cussion of the proposed League of Nations
plan it that so far it has turned on a limited
basil. Foints involved, important as they are
to Americans, do not include all on which
criticism may fairly rest An objection that
in some minds is paramount above the others
raised is that as contemplated, the operations
of the league will be governed by expediency
and not entirely by right. It makes no pro
vision for the growth and development of law
or for the firm establishment of justice. Set
tlements' will be such as will temporize and not
those that determine definitely what is right
and just. .,
The Shantung instance fairly illustrates this.
England, France and Russia bid against Ger
many for the support of Japan in the war. They
were willing in the emergency that Japan
should be permitted to recoup itself at the ex
pense of China. None who has studied the
case, and this does not except Mr. Wilson, be
lieves that justice has been served by the terms
of the treaty awarding to Japan all that Ger
many held or claimed in China. Expediency
alone governed. So to in Fiume, in Danzig, and
elsewhere.
The objection raised by Elihu Root in his
letter of last March has not yet been fairly
met. Relations between nations must event
ually rest on the fabric of international law, an
institution of slow growth, but capable of in
estimable service. Talk about the abolition of
political intrigues and diplomatic chicanery is
idle, when the nations undertake to set up a
tribunal whose decisions lack the support of
recognized principles.
Opportunity was presented at Paris for the
setting up of a great international court, from
which would issue determination of questions
resting on legal right. This was not done, and
the failure to make such provision indjeates a
structural weakness in the plan that will have
to be remedied before permanence can be as
sured. '
Headquarters of the A. E. F. is now at
Washington, with General Pershing still in
command.
Borah's broadsides are breaking down a lot
of careftilly-bnilt-up sophistical defenses for the
'League of Nations.
Things are slowly settling down, whether
the treaty be signed or not. Given time enough,
peace will declare itself.
One burglar taken red-handed is greater
than the capture of several pints of whisky" in
the interest of good order.
The "rtiuny" ice business ought to be oil a

. have the first call on its output.
T" Omaha continues to be the healthiest city
in the United State!, due to its salubrious
climate and the careful habits of its citizens.
Effect of the Borah Meeting.
When Mr. Wilson left Omaha last Monday,
his ardent supporters set up the assertion that
he had clinched the case for the League of Na
tions, to far as this neck of the woods is con
cerned. They are not quite so confident today.
Senator Borah's reception was not less impres
sive than that given the president, and the
demonstration brought out by his closing re
mark, that he was against any league what
ever, must have given a chill to those who had
claimed everything for the president's attitude.
If the visit of the senator has had no other ef
fect, it has made clear that local sentiment is
not entirely one-sided in the matter, but that a
very respectable element of opposition exists in
this section, which has been claimed with as
surance by the league advocates. It is a direct
reply to the president's statement, made here,
that the voice most -audible at Washington is
not that of the people. This insinuation that
the popular branch of the government does not
represent the people is thus fairly met. Oppo
sition to the "swallow-it-whole" plan has found
its voice, and it is not to be ignored.
Views and Reviews
Contrast of the Wilson and
Borah Meetings .
It has been a big week in Omaha with two
first-rank public men addressing us on the
League of Nations in quick succession. Presi
dential visit are still too occasional to become
commonplaces, and though Mr. Wilson and his
charming wife had been in Omaha three years
ago, their appearance exerts the same magnetic
fascination. The president was in fine spirit
a bit more serious than the last time he was
here, when he laughed and joked at the fea
tures of the Ak-Sar-Ben historical pageant
which he reviewed but perhaps it was because
he had more serious business in hand. Mrs.
Wilson looked more trim of figure and better
poised, but, as before, was found by those near
her to be sparingly talkative. The president
had the speaking role and bent earnestly to
the task of pleading the cause of the covenant
without change or reservations, but must have
felt that it was a real job he had undertaken.
While most attentively listened to, there, was
an absence of that responsiveness that tells ah
experienced speaker that his hearers are' thor
oughly in accord with him, in fact only two or
three times did he hit the mark hard enough to
bring back a good loud echo. It was a static
atmosphere around him.
The Borah meeting Friday, on the other
hand, was dynamic every moment. From start
to finish the speaker was roused and spurred on
by rounds of applause following each telling
hit. Interruptions and questions from the
audience, evoking sharp answer or quick rep
artee, showed the Idaho senator at his best.
In a, word, the speaker had the crowd with him
and the crowd did not hesitate to let him know
that fact.
I asked Senator Borah later how his
meeting here compared with those he has been
addressing in other cities.
"It is the best meeting I have had on this
trip," was the reply. "I've talked perhaps to
more people at some other places, but to none
more enthusiastic in their reception to me. I
confess it more than met expectations."

The Doughboy
, General Pershing said, on his arrival in New
Yor.k; "The American doughboy is the finest
soldier in the world, and it did not take the
Germans long to find it out." That is not a
mere compliment. It is not the ordinary pride
jof a commanding officer in the quality of the
inen under him. It is the deliberate judgment
of the first soldier of the United States, made
after intimate association for two years with
the soldiers of nearly every civilized nation in
the world, both friend and foe. It is the judg
ment of our own people, based upon accom
ttlishment and not solelv uoon national oride.
v We may believe that it is also the unexpressed
judgment of the higher omcers ot other armies.
.Undoubtedly we have jumped from last place
to first place in the estimation of the world as
)tr our military capacity. Nations which for
merly held us in light esteem, such as the con
temptuous remarks of the German military
leaders before and at- the time of our entry
Into the war reveal, will make no warlike cal
culations in the future which do no put down
the United States as a large factor in the prob
lem. We shall be such a factor, not because
we shall seek war, but because those who go
0 war will try their best to keep us out of it.
This means that they will not go to war at all
if there is probability that we would be against
Ithem. This is where the United States would
jtxert a compelling influence for peace as a
Erty to the league of nations, a determining
;tor, not alone by our high ideals of right
d wrong against which nations would then
hesitate to act, but because of our demonstrated
military power.
I : That is what the doughboy has done for us.
He has shown the whole world that not only
will we as a nation go to war to uphold the
right, but that our individual soldiers go into
battle filled with zeal, determination, energy
and intellectual initiative to such a degree that
oldiers less inspired cannot stand against
lem. They have shown that we are a nation
f ideals, in accord with which we seek to live
d to sustain which our young men are willing
.j battle and die. St. Louis Glote-Pemocrat.
Professional Service and Pay.
Doctors are reported from the east to be
moving in the formation of a union for the
better protection of their professional interests,
with especial regard to compensation. Nurses
in Omaha are about to take somewhat similar
steps. Such action must astound if it does not
shock the careless public. In the case of the
Omaha nurses, the reported intention of the
body is to protect thee afflicted from extortions
said to have been practiced by some who were
caljd into service during the "flu" epidemic
last fall. This is commendable from any aspect
A peculiar relation exists between doctors and
nurses on one side and the public on the other.
It is not possible nor. desirable to establish a
rigid schedule of fees. Something of the sort
does exist, perhaps, but generally is considered
basic rather than arbitrary. Ethically, doctors
and nurses are required to serve without hope
of reward, other than that which comes from
the conscious satisfaction of ameliorating hu
manity's ills. Practically, the fee is almost in
variably founded on the patient's ability to pay,
modified in some degree by the experience and
professional attainments of the practitoner. It
often occurs that the eminent doctor gives the
best he has where no compensation is forth
coming, and the nurse devotes herself with
equal unselfishness in such cases. But where
other things are equal, no reason possibly ex
ists for not paying well those whose lives are
given over to lessening human suffering
through ministrations in time of sickness. Yet
to the end of time the verse written by
Holmes will probably apply:
God and the doctor men alike adore
Just at the brink of danger, not before.
The danger past, both are alike requited;
God ia forgotten and the doctor slighted.
Nothing is so deceptive as estimating
crowds. I overheard an argument as to which
of the two assemblages wis the larger. My
opinion is that they were just about equal in
numbers, tor each occasion every seat in the
Auditorium was occupied and all available
standing room occupied. If it were possible
for more to get in, the opening was overlooked
by those unable to effect an entrance. The
president had the advantage of the added at
traction of the first lady of the land, which
may explain the fact that fully half of his
hearers were women or was it because he
spoke in the morning and the senator spoke
at night? The Borah meeting was made up of
at least two-thirds men and many wage work
ers and soldiers, as well as business and pro
fessional men. The most significant part of
the two meetings is the conclusive proof af
forded by them of the keen interest of all
classes of people in this over-shadowing ques
tion and their intense eagerness to learn more
out it. This is indeed an encouraging sign
the times.
Precautious Against Flu.
Apprehension of a return of the
"flu" Dandemic disturbs a great
many people. Medical authorities
can give no guaranty of immunity
against the disease, but hope with
the result of their experience of
last winter to support them to be
better able to meet Ha ravages ir
recurrence should come. Precau
tions such as were then atfvlsed hold
good. These are to avoid excesses
ot any kind, to wear warm, com
fortable clothing, eat moderately of
plain, wholesome food, sleep in well
ventilated rooms, bathe frequently,
see that the normal functions of the
body are not suspended for any rea
son, and not to neglect a cold, how
ever slight. "Cover up each cough
and sneeze" still prevails, and any
who may feel symptoms are advised
10 consult a physician without delay.
Some comfort is extracted from
analysis of the data gained from
last winter's disastrous experience.
The outstanding fact is that the
"flu" does not leave wrecks behind,
as some other less dreaded diseases
do. Investigators in Buffalo have
dealt with 33,880 cases of influenza
reported between October 1, 1918,
and April 1. 1919. Of these 3,179
died. Each of the survivors were
visited by an investigator, who in
iutred if any after effects of the
'flu' had been sustained. Only 748
claimed to have experienced anv ill
effects following recovery from the
disease. A follow-up inquiry de
veloped that 501 of these had fully
recovered, 216 reported thev were
improving and four had died. Closer
examination shows that the "flu"
does not increase the tendency to
consumption.
It is very certain that 33,880 cases
or pneumonia, typhoid fever, diph
theria, measles, or almost any other
grave disease, or 33,880 major oper
ations done under an anesthetic
would have left more after-effects,
more organic disease of heart and
kidneys, more consumption and
more chronic bronchitis, more
chronic invalidism than followed in
the wake of the epidemic of "flu"
in Buffalo.

Training for Policemen.
A friend asks The Bee to state what sort
of training is contemplated for the policeman
of the future. It is rather difficult to give a
comprehensive outline in a few words. We
can easily fix essential requirements for an
ideal policeman. He must be intelligent, cour
ageous, possessed of self-control, have an un
derstanding of the rudiments of the civil as well
as the criminal law, this to supplement the reg
ulations in his book of rules, and be wholly de
voted to the service of the public. Only evildoers
should fear him, and all should respect him;
such a man will naturally respect himself. To
this training may be added detailed knowledge
of matters that would come within the pur
view of the police department. He should be
carefully schooled in first aid processes, be
versed in many things that need not here be
catalogued, but most of which will suggest
themselves to one who studies even casually
what is' involved in preserving peace and order
in a busy city. Such men do not abound, but
must be made. A field for a specialist is here
open. Let a training course for policemen be
established with the supp'ort of the several city
governments of the country, or give such op
portunity in connection with the regular work,
and make it an object for the men to fit
themselves for better service and possible ad
vancement, and the public will be the gainer.
In Washington recently I met on the same
day two other distinguished orators who have
in times past stirred Omaha audiences on op
posite sides of another great issue. Passing
through the senate marble room who should
be holding forth there but that eminent Ne
. braskan, William Jennings Bryan. Mr. Bryan
had stopped off to tell a congressional com
mittee how to solve the railroad problem by
letting the federal government take over the
trunk lines and leave the state governments to
own and operate the branch roads, just as he
had proposed in his famous Madison Square
Garden speech on his homecoming from his trip
around the world, and was not the least
abashed that his proposal struck no more pop
ular chord now than then. I greeted him and
remarked how well he looked. "Yes, I'm feel
ing fine," he exclaimed. "I hope I look as well."
Mrs. Bryan, he informed me, was much better
than she had been and "doing nicely." In the
evening I ran across Bourke Cockran, who had
come over from New York to head a delega
tion that was to present the Irish cause to the
foreign relations committee. He has aged of
course, but seems hearty, and asked about
Omaha.
Human Kindness in the Navy
At a time when criticism of their former
officers is being indulged in by a good many
men returning from military and naval serv
ice, the story of how a young naval officer
served a young Houston gob and earned the
lasting gratitude of the sailor boy and his
Houston mother comes by way of refreshing
contrast.
The gob from Houston was a member of
the crew of a naval vessel sailing from an
eastern port to the Pacific. The ship touched
at a Texas port a few days ago briefly to
renew some supplies, but the crew was not
allowed shore leave. Upon learning that one
of the sailor boys on board was from Houston
the young officer came ashore and telegraphed
the sailor's mother, and later when the stay
of the ship was lengthened, he secured special
permission for the young man to come to
Houston for a few hours and loaned him the
money for his fare.
And the officer had known the Houston lad
only four -days, so his actions could not be
charged up to favoritism.
Perhaps this was an extraordinary case,
and this, officer maybe had an unusually big
heart in his breast, but this story of him ac-
'cords much better with the traditions of the
gallantry, bravery and respect of their men
which have grown up about our navall officers
than do some of the stories of criticism that
have been going the rounds recently. Houston

Hay Fever Prevention.
Victims of hay fever almost unan
imously subscribe to the state
ment that the current year has been
unusually severe on them. They do
no try to prescribe a reason for this,
but are content to accept the fact.
As the time for their relief ap
proaches, they are comparing notes,
and as yet only agree that the dis
agreeable disease shows no abate
ment in the ravages locally. Dr.
Scheppergrell of New Orleans, who
is at the head of the national as
sociation for the study and preven
tion of hay fever and kindred dis
eases, says his campaign on the rag
weed in the region of New Orleans
has reduced the number of sufferers
there by at least one-half and has
lessened the intensity of the afflic
tion. No such campaign has been
set on foot in this section of the
country, although the society has
frequently recommended that it be
made nation-wide in behalf of the
victims. For the treatment of de
veloped cases he advises:
Calcium chloride, or, better, the
less ipritating calcium lactate, given
Ic 3B-graJn doses after meals, well
dilirted. This is occasionally of
benefit. In some cases 15 grains of
bicarbonate of soda three or four
times dally is of benefit. It is given
in solution.
Old asthmatics suffering also from
hay fever get much help from 10 to
20 drops of saturated solution of
iodide of sodium given diluted three
times daily.
Some cases of hay fever are help
ed by a solution of two gains of
menthol in an ounce of liquid pe
troleum, sprayed in the nose. It
makes other cases worse. Solutions
of cocain and adrenalin should not
be used.
As an eye wash when the eyes
are involved he uses bicarbonate of
soda; boracic acid, each 15 grains;
salt, 3 grains; distilled water, 1
ounce. i
He has found vaccinations witii
ordinary nose bacteria to be of serv
ice during the course of the attack.
Cultures can be made from the nose
of the patient.
The vaccines are given hypo- I
dermically and during the course of '
the acute attack; when the acute ;
attack subsides the use of vaccine is
stopped. This vaccination during
the attack Is not to be confused with
immunization done before the sea
son, and in which polens are used.
Some Objections to the
League
Omaha. Sept. 11. To the Editor
of The Bee: I have always been an
admirer of the wisdom of the men
who built the constitution of the
United States, and at this time I am
particularly impressed with their
wisdom in requiring that all treaties
must be approved by two-thirds of
the senate.
That observation was Inspired by
the spectacle of the president tak
ing upon himself the sole duty of
negotiating a treaty to end the war
In which the United States took
such a prominent part.
I say the sole duty, for the other
members of the commission were
only "also rans".
The United States asked nothing
and got nothing, for the president
went over obsessed with the sole
idea of a league of nations, which
after adoption proved to be a Brit
ish version of his idea.
His speech in which he an
nounced that he was going over to
participate in "open covenants
openly arrived at," now reads
strangely in view of the fact that
the senate knew nothisfg officially of
the treaty till they had to force its
presentation to them.
The fact that Great Britain has
six votes in the assembly of the
league of nations while the United
States has only one does not help
to bring support to it as It stands
now.
The president In one of his re
cent speeches said that the objec
tion to the treaty and league were
so weak that they were not hard to
beat. If he Is right, why is he mak
ing such a strenuous effort to beat
them by leaving Washington at this
time when matters of immense Im
portance to the nation are under
consideration and should have his
constant presence there, to spend
30 days in swinging around the cir
cle maiung special pleas for swal
lowing whole the treaty and league.
i ao not want to see the rTnircrl
States placed in such a position that
It will be obliged to use its forces
in any quarrel in which we have no
Interest, and I do not bell eve ihat
there is even a respectable minority
of the people who want to see our
army and navy used as a universal
wona ponce.
One of the worst features of tin.
treaty in my opinion Is the pro
vision that takes the province of
Shantung from China and iriv en it
lu oapnn. Aiinougn promises are
made that It will ultimately be re
turned to China, the promises are
only verbal and ultimately is very
indefinite. Shantung is China's
"Holy land." it contains the sacred
mountain which the Chinese have
worshiped for 4,000 vears. and it
contains also the birthplace and
tomb of Confucius, who stands for
the Chinese as Christ does for th-
Chrlstian, and It is not onlv a ma
terial wrong to China but 'a senti
mentally religious outrace. and the
crusades show us the strength that
lies in religious sentiment.
The president says that lncrpnser
production will remedy the high
level of prices, but I wish to say
that the return of peace will brine-
the Underwood tariff again on the
country, and the trade Journals
showed that under the operations
of that tariff in December, 1914,
there were 900,000 men unemployed
In the United States and that con
dition continued until the demand
for men to manufacture munitions
of war gave them work, and we
know that our democratic Senator
Hitchcock tried to stop the exriorf
of those munitions which were giv-
ng employment to great numbers
of people. Now the Underwood
tariff cannot be changed while Mr,
Wilson is president, for we know
how bitterly opposed he Is to any
thing that has a hint of protection
int it.

When War Supplants
Reason
Job for Talkey Undertaker.
The United States Brewers' asso
ciation will hold a convention at At
lantic City. The day will yet come
when some genius is going to dis
cover a way to convey to a corpse
a comprehensible impression of the
process of extinction which has com
pleted its devitalization or words to
that effect. Houston Post.
Auburn, Neb., Sept. . To the
Editor of The Bee: The great
reason for hope and encouragement
today is found In the fact that some
of our state and national publica
tions are disposed fco step aside
from the straight and narrow and
wholly undemocratic regime and
stand for freedom of speech and
freedom of the press, without which
true democracy cannot exist.
We must become more consistent
than t6 contend or demand that
only one side of the question shall
be heard; for when one side only
is heard it follows that that one
side is, and will be aglow with the
unreal and untrue. The truth does
not have to make or urge the toler
ation of law, custom or prjudice to
bar or exclude candid criticism.
When war is declared, justice is
set aside and thousands of grafts
made possible, and many thousands
of grafters and profiteers Invited to
take a part in the demands that
have to so great an extent made the
freedom of speech and the freedom
of the press only a dream.
So far has this barring the free
dom of speech and of the press been
carried that many have reached the
conclusion that patriotism consists
In aiding In bringing on and main
taining war with all Its attendant
evils; and that religion consists In
doing all possible to aid the hell of
war, and to advance this or that
narrow and erratic ism In the name
of Christianity.
If we are to be even a distant
relative to what we professed to be
but a few months ago when we
talked about the steps the United
States was going to take toward
bringing about the greatest victory
for real peace and true humanity
the world had ever seen, or was to
see, then we must at least contend
for the right as a counterpoise to
some of the teachings of today.
We e;o to Sunday school, where it
Is said that the youthful mind is
formed, and find beloved youths en
gaged in the manual of arms, and
the same is called the Boy Scouts,
and the boys are handed great wads
of flattery; we hear the preacher
while addressing the Sunday school
recite the cruelties and russedness
of the other fellows, and declare
that it makes his blood boll to think
of the other fellows; we hear one
of the teachers declare that he
would like to see every soldier in
the ranks of the enemy lying dead
on the battlefield and the wolves
gnawing their hones; we hear an
other declare that peace can only
be brought about when every one
of the officers of the army of the
enemy have been stood up with
their backs to the wall and shot
down as a concluding step in the
program of the great war; we hear
the church congregation called up
on to go into their closets and when
they have shut the door to pray for
the success of our army and the
annihilation of the other fellow'sj
and that the God of the Universe
will answer their prayers just
what they had been cussing and de
nouncing the other fellows for ex-

The new rule allowing the deduction of
"luxury" taxes from taxable income will not
only reduce income hut greatly complicate the
taxpayer's bookkeeping and provide such small
relief that most men will ignore it. Who is
methodical enough to keep track of the 2 cents

Progress and Restlessness
Discussing the present troubled condition of
the world and tangled condition of the world's
affairs, -a supposedly great statesman rises to
remark that what the world needs is a rest.
It is all right as a figure of speech, perhaps,
but the truth is it doesn't need a rest' at all;
rest is the last thing in the world that a man
or a nation needs. And rest comes at the end.
If the gentleman means - that we should
devote more of our time to work and less
to worry he is correct. We do need a surcease
fom worry. But if he means by "rest" inaction
then he is mistaken. Too many people con
found rest with inaction. A change of work
may prove beneficial, laying aside the cus
tomary toil of the day for toil in some other
field, under the head of play, is generally wise,
if the toil has been prolonged. But the fellow
who is best able to rest is the one who is
busiest when he is enjoying his rest.
There is rest in this world only in the
cemeteries and there are dead nations enjoy
ing rest just as there are dead, men. If' the
world "lays down," if it seeks inaction, if it
tries to stop the everlasting grind, if it even
forgets that there is anything to discuss or to
criticize then it lies down to rest in the grave
yard of forgetfulness. AH of these apparently
great annoyances of the day. all of this "mull
ing around," all of these sharp discussions and
fierce criticisms are helpful; it is the only way
men and nations and the world can hope to
