The last time Henry ran for anything it was as a democrat, but prior to that he had obtained the' endorse ment of Nebraska republicans for the office of chief executive. .He is a versatile chap when it comes to politics. Nobel Prizes Go Begging Two of the Nobel prizes for 1919, it appears, will not be awarded. The prizes its economics and medicine were to be assigned to French men, but in advance of the formal announce ment both refused to accept the honors because the Swedish body which gives the prizes for chemistry had seen, fit to honor Dr. Haber, in ventor of the poison gases used by the German army. No Joubt there will be protests against this1 "narrowness" from those who profess to believe in the international character of science a doctrine worthy enough, but somewhat be side the -point. One recalls the recent appeal for the erasing of the hard feelings aroused by the war which was published in France, in Austria and in America by some of those who call themselves intellectuals. The French intel lectual who were eager to forget about the war all at once seem to have been almost wholly of the group centering about the sufficiently known M. Barbusse gentlemen, that is, who have no interest in any war except the bolshe vist crusade against the world, in the interest of which they toil so earnestly. As for the American signatories, nearly all of them bore German names or were known for friendship with Germany. . ..... So, though Dr.Haber undoubtedly has many scientific achievements to his credit besides his work in poison, gas, and though . thet Swedes who made the award had probably no invidious intention,' general sympathy will be "felt with Hirl not cire to be honored V in such company., One may wonder, indeed, why the .Nobel prize tor idealistic ?.na imagina tive literature was not given to the man who ,wrote General LudendorfFs daily communiques to the German people on the absorbing subject ! strategic retirements New. .York Times. AN ORGY OF WASTE. As investigation goes deeper into the recqrd of extravagance made by the War department the more appalling are the facts disclosed. Rep resentative Jefferis contributed another chapter a- .t. - t 1 i j ; ' 'J . - jo in a. accumulating neap oi oamning enuence of the incompetency of the administration when he told the story of the orgy of waste at Nitro, the "wonder city," which outstrips any of the other. When the retreating German armies fell back onto the Hindenburg line, they deliber ately devastated the region they abandoned, de stroying what they could not take with them. For this crime against civilization they were called all manner of names. The only other place in the world where the destruction of Ba paume could be matched seems to have been at Nitro, Va., within sight of the capital of the nation, and where no hostile gun was fired. Nor was it to prevent the supplies from fall ing into enemy hands, but merely to get them out of the way. Lumber, hardware, nails, spikes, foodstuffs, all manner of needed articles were wilfully, wantonly fed to the flames, which were kept roaring continually. More lumber was burned than was used, says Representative Jefferis, who tells of how a lumber pile ten feet high and covering an acre was burned to clear a space in which the secretary of war would find room to speak in a Liberty Bond Drive.' Responsibility should be fixed for this amaz ing outrage, and punishment visited on them. It is not merely a political issue, for the demo crats are as deeply concerned in this as are the republicans. The fact the democratic ad ministration is responsible for our unreadiness to enter the war, and the consequent additional expenditure that was needed has long been fixed. But that such criminal recklessness as has been discovered at Mussel Shoals, at Charleston, at Nitro, and elsewhere throughout the country, could have gone on unchecked and unrebuked by the War department surpasses understanding. . ' A Dangerous Doctrine. , Soma" of the proposals made for the control of the Railroads of the United States embody the most amazing doctrines of communistic so cialism. One of these is that which con templates dividing excess earnings of prosper ous roads amonsr the less successful. This has already been discussed several times, and the principle involved should be well understood. It involves taking from a thrifty, well managed road a portion of its earnings to be allotted to a competitor that is neither thrifty nor well directed, in order that it may share in what it does not earn. If such a principle were ex tended to all other lines of business, as it well may be, the communistic state has been at tained. It is applied bolshevism. , Walker D. Hines, federal director, advocates the plan "in order to protect the oublic aeainst excess earnings of very prosperous roads, and in order to insure a fair return to all rnaHs " Plainly, Mr. Walker has not learned the out standing lesson of the unhappy experiment of government control, which is that efforts at unification of operation have produced neither efficiency nor satisfactioi. Government man agement may have secured for certain railroads dividends they would not have earned, but it has been at the expense of the taxpayers. If dbmpetition is to be restored, and the earnest hope of those who have most deeply and sincerely studied the problem is that it will be restored, it must be under such conditions as will secure to competent and energetic manage ment its proper return. The "mildewed ear" should not be permitted to fatten on'its fairer brother in this any more than in any other ave nue of individual or group employment. Government regulation to insure' a fair field for all, to prevent extortion and injustice, is desirable, but this does not contemplate rob bing Peter to pay Paul, nor to take money from a successful business and give it to one that is not successful. ,Some better method for equalizing conditions may be discovered, but it should not rest on any penalty put upon en- terprise and ability. In the Matter of Agreements. Very recently Omaha has been treated to several illustrations of how jurors are unable to reach a verdict because of difference of opinion as to the guilt of the accused. People wonder why this is so;1 those who have determined on guilty and those 'who have decided not guilty each failing to.understand how there can be any reasonable dispute as to the facts in the case. Now- we have a more notable and impressive instance of this. An incident in connection with the affairs of state involved a firm of at torneys to the extent that the Bar association felt impelled to make an inquiry. This was duly held, the facts developed through the ex amination of witnesses, and the whole sub mitted to a committee of five able lawyers to draw conclusions and present a written finding. This committee reached its agreement as to the conclusions and instructed one to write out the report When this was1 done, the others declined to accept as their own the language of the report, and the dispute is open again. The obvious moral of this is that when learned men of the law can not agree on a ver dict, it is no cause for wonder that jurors at times find themselves similarly situated. As a matter of human experience, mental reaction varies continually with the individual, and minds are seldom in accord as to anything. Unanimity is much rarer than the records show, for gen erally the assent is given with some degree tof mental reservation, or because of indifference as to the point. Willingness to try anything once helps a lot, because it enables folks to get along, together, but do not deal too harshly with the jury when it can not reach agreement other than to disagree. Wastefulness in connection with the doings of the War department is coming up to verify the illuminating statement made by Creel when he tojd of the nonchalance with which Newton D. Baker disposed of matters involving hun dreds of millions of dollars. Some folks under him seemed to have imitated his example, even down to the disposal of mere millions. A course of.irrigation is to be given by the University of Nebraska, with the school estab lished at Gerlng. This is where the science is best understood and best practiced in Ne braska, and where experts may be developed if such a thing is possible anywhere.

Poland's Thin Red Line From the Minneapolis Tribune. Is Poland to be substituted for Belgium and France, and Trotsky for Wilhelm, in the next great war for the preservation of civilization? The most powerful army in Europe today is that of the bolsheviki. It is on the aggressive in all directions. It is expected that it will be launched, in large part at least, against Poland in the spring. Poland, as constituted by the Peace confer ence and recognized by the League of Nations, is made up largely of territory formerly belong ing to Russia. It constitutes today, as the dis patches describe it, the "thin red, line" between Bolshevism on the Eas"t and democracy on the West. Poland, it is expected, will have to fight for her life. Will she be obliged to defend it alone? Her life is the barrier against the West ern spread of bolshevist forces and ideas, and bolshevist occupation. The soviet government of Russia has no notion now, apparently, of be-' ing content with domination over its own terri tory, as now constituted, but aims to extend its power and spread its propaganda throughout the world. It is just as ambitious a program, is just as much of a menace to the pca"ce of the world as was Prussianism five years ago. The theory that the people of Russia should be permitted to develop their own form of gov ernment and select their own leaders and have the kind of government they desire has been adhered to by the Allies on the theory of self determination, but circumstances have been such that this has resulted in the assertion of arbitrary power more- absolute, more tyran nical, more cruel than ever existed under the czaristic regime. Bolshevism is today a greater menace to the liberties of the people as a whole than was the empire at any .time during the last 10 years of its existence. This is the power that has gained the ascendancy in Russia and which aims at the overthrow and the absoro- tion of other states and other systems asJ eageriy as did tne Hun. Will .Poland, weak and probably incapable of dealing alone successfully with this threatened invasion, be allowed to fight her battles as best she can, or will the Entente, the United States included, decide, oerhaps after costly delay, that Poland must not be crushed, but must have such help as will b rtecessary to make a successful resistance against the advances of the bolshevist power? Perhaps this sounds like getting ready for a new war, or like advocating a new war; it certainly is not intended to be understood as favoring a new war, but it would be folly to repeat the mistake of 1914 to 1917 and fail to be prepared for whatever emeregncy may arise. Naturally and properly, the first move would be made by France and Great Britain; they will feel the first effects if the Poles should be un able to maintain themselves. But the triumph ofTrotzky over Poland would have no less sig nificance for us than the overrunning of Bel gium by Germany and the assault upon France, aiming at world dominion. The government is now contemplating the furnishing of life's necessities to the Russian people, prided the transmission of supplies can surely be made so as to reach the hands of the needy in the oooulation centers. It is as sumed that people who have food' cannot ,be induced to follow bolshevik leadership very long and that if food supplies "are provided the bolshevik ranks will soon begin to show de sertions in large numbers. How practicable this scheme may be only experience can demonstrate, but if it be prac ticable now, the question is, Why was not this policy adopted before the bolshevik movement was able to gain its present strength by threats and favoritism? If such a plan can detach its followers from bolshevism now, could it not have been much more successful before bol shevism became so widely extended and so well intrenched? The Russian policy of the Allies, our own government included, has been fol lowed by results that leave little to be said in its defense. Perhaps Mr. Hoover's plan to re move the blockade and feed the starving may succeed; let's try it; it is at least the humane thing to do. Princes and Pugilists The world is so full of trouble that it is slop ping over onto most of us; but, say what we will, the war at least is ended. When staid and sober New York journals give space on -the first page to a seventy-second prize fight in London, it is unmistakably evident that the day of German drives and, Hindenburg lines has passed into history. ... The. public is seeking diversion in little things. And. though the Prince of Wales was at the ringside and stood up and made a speech of twenty words, and though dukes and earls and even ladies "in low gowns and "diamonds" were conspicuous among those present, the combat between a British pugilist and a French one must be reckoned as one of the world's little things. It is well, perhaos, that we have these tre mendous trifles to divert us. As the doughboys say, we are "fed up" on war. Since time alone apparently can deliver us from our tribulations, we can take our mind off our troubles for a time by getting excited over something that is, in reality, for most people just about as import ant as the money they bet on it. Binghamton Press. tees Surplus Just on Paper Now it appears that the Postoffice depart ment not only has failed to supply service, but that its surplus of $35,000,000 for the last seven years very likely will be erased when claims against it are settled. The railroads, according to Representative Steenerson of Minnesota, chairman of the house postoffice and postroads committee, have claims aggregating $100, 000.000. The railroads used to get about $52,000,000 annually for carrying the mails. Now they get $47,000,000 for double the work that they for merly did. The United States government has, been in control of the railroads for more than two years. In those two years all classes' of rates have been increased except those for car rying the mails, which have been reduced about 10 per cent. If it is worth more to carry a passenger or a pound of freight or express, why isn't it worth more for carrying a pound of mail matter? It is fair to assume that at least some of the claims against the Postoffice department will be allowed. As Representative Steenerson points out, if only one-third of them are paid, Mr. Burleson's fine seven-year surplus of $35, 000,000 will be gone. Buffalo Express. ITODAV The Day We Celebrate. M. T.

To the Editor of The Bee: As awful as this epi demic which is scourging Omaha, lots of people are undergoing un necessary suffering from not know ing how to seek relief. i.As for myself, I was nearly des- i)Brie, leareu i wouio nave to see the doctor, or buy medicine, an in come of nothing a year doesn't War rant such recklessness, but I found an old prescription, nearly a year old, iised it and avoided the worst spell 'of cold I ever had. What the people want is to snuff up some good camphor and other ingredients to keep the passages open to the lungs and not have to strain their sides in order to force the air through the nostrils Nature gives us a very good inning, but "as sist nature." is the most potential" rule of medical practice. There will be lots of people die just from influenza because they failed to give themselves a little care when it was so necessary. I know lots of doctors in Omaha who would be willing to stick a lit tle prescription in the papers so those who could not do better might have the benefit. B. FOLLOWAY. Profiling by Snow.

Answered lot jBoyt . Veterinary. By B. 8. Alexander. Do you think that since horses have been replaced by automobiles there-is no longer any need for veterinaries? If you do think that way about it, forget that idea now. The cows which give the milk you put on your breakfast food have to be inspected frequently by a veteri nary in order to protect you from disease. The cattle which are killed to furnish the meat you eat are, or should be, inspected by a veterinary, so that you can be sure that meat is fit to eat. The foot and mouth dis ease is just about as dangerous to your health and comfort as the "flu" itself. A veterinary ought to have just about as much, training as the physician that takes qare of you-t perhaps more. You ire able to tel! what your symptoms are, but aa animal cannot. Think these facts over before you turn down the veterinary profession as a life work. It is interesting; it is important; it is needed. The boy who thinks of going into veterinary work should first get high school education and a college education, with special work in chemistry and biology, if possible. The old idea that an eighth-grader was ready for a veterinary school i a thing ofthe past. Then he should go to a good school of veterinary medicine. Most state agricultural colleges, as well as a considerable number of universities, have such schools. The bureau of animal hus bandry, Washington, D. C, should be able to inform you as to the best school to attend. After graduation you may set up in practice, just as other physicians do. You may enter the service of the state or federal government. Much inspection and research work along the line of the prevention of ' animal diseases is done by the gov ernment. Or you may .become at tached to some -great stock raiser or a group of stock raisers as veteri nary for their flocks or herds. For further information write the dean of your state agricultural col lege, the director of your state agri cultural experiment station, or the bureau of animal husbandry at Washington.
