Get to Work
Some of the British newspapers are disposed
to adopt a scejlding attitude toward this country
for its failure, through the government or other
wise, freely to make loans and extend credits
for the rehabilitation of Europe. As an ex
ample, and in a tone which might be more in
gratiating, America is told by the Westminster
gazette that "her own trade interestslone will
rompel her to play her part in the world, .and
mat part will involve her in financial aid to
Other nations."
This is quite true. The same thing has re
peatedly been said by The World. But the
compulsion spoken of cannot be applied arbi
trarily. It can only be imposed by the natural
laws of trade.
The conclusion, accordingly; is that Western
Europe must somehow contrive to produce
rnore goods for sale in this market and to get
along with fewer purchases of goods in this
market. It must get over the notion that any
easier way exists to recover from the industrial
havoc and ruin of war or that full recovery can
be made in a single bounfl. It must think lew
of loans from somewhere and more of self-help.
It mast talk less of what dire things will happen
to America and get to work more, as Mr.
HHoover said. . '
i The further fall in the New York exchanges
yesterday on England, France and Italy to

to the same J effect both for Europe and the
United' State's. It means for. all concerned hat
there must be less living on credit. and more
work and saving. New York World,
LESSON OF THE KIRK CASE. '
The report of the majority of the commis
sion named by the State Bar association to m-
veftigate the Kirk furlough matter sustains the
view stated by The Bee at the outset. No evi
dence of bad faith on part of any of the state
officers or attorneys is found. The "furlough" I
plan for liberating -convicts is condemned as
without authority of law, although sanctioned
by custom. The minority report endorses the
findings of the majority, but adds that responsi
bility rests on the governor, whether he is pres
ent in the' state or not. This does not follow".
. Plainly the lesson of the" Kirk case is that
greater security may be placed around the par
doning power. Broader and clearer definition
of its extent, with sharper limitations to its ex
ercise, should be provided. As an attribute .of
arbitrary power,-it properly rests in the ex
ecutive, whose determination should be final,
but the governor, whoever-ie may be, will very
likely welcome any relief from the function that
frequently puts him in a decidedly awkward po
sition. Clemency-is never to beNdenied, rior
the avenffes of approach to its application made
more difficult, but under a reasonable arrange
ment of statutory regulations its' exercise can
be made such as will engender less of aMverse
criticisjn.
' While the disposition finally rests with the
executive, he uses the power in full knowledge
that his act is subject to review by the public,
and that he will meet with, condemnation from
some. He knows, moreover, the great ma
jority of the people of the state confide in his
judgrhent, and are . willing to 'accept his de
cisions because of their faith in his integrity.
In the pgst many pardons have been granted
that did not on all points aquare with public
sentiment, and yet whtre most objection has
teen raised least harm has resulted.
The comment by the commission on the re
lation between the executive afrd practicing at
torneys is one that brings in the personal equa
(tioq and is not a subject for legislative enact
ment, bar association regulation or public dis
cussion. Abraham Lincoln: A Man.
Americans, no matter how busy, will paiffe for
a moment today to pay respectful and admiring
tribute to the memory of Abrah am Lincoln.
America has produced other statesmen, more
profoundly learned and more deeply versed in
Jhe science of government, as keenly concerned
for the welfare of the people, and in the highest
degree patriotic, whose service to the country
was large and generous, and yet who have left
no such impression on the imagination and af
fection of their countrymen, Other men have
risen from poverty and obscurity to positions
of power and Influence, and have died leaving no
greater gap in the social fabric than follows the
withdrawal of the ordinary mortal. What, then,
distinguishes Abraham Lincoln from the rest?
Abraham Lincoln lives foret'er because he
lived while he was here in the flesh. It is not
his ability as a rail splitter, school teacher, flat
boat man, grocery clerk, surveyor, lawyer, sol
dier, congressman, or president, or all com
Mned that gives him his pre-eminence. It was
that almost divine quality of understanding and
sympathy with the people, his deep perception
and quick response to 'the problems and per
plexities of the plain folks. "God must love the
common people, because he made sovmany of
them," said Abraham Lincoln.
He loved justice and did right instinctively;
hfs heart beat in tune with that of the masses,
and his wonderfully clear and vigorous mind
was devoted to their service. His principles and
precepts were so expressed that all might un
derstand, and clsarly pointed the way to human
liberty, the square deal, and a better way of
living. That is why the name of Abraham Lin
coln shines among th,e brightest of all ages, and,
why it's luminosity increases as time goes on.
Trade Practice and Good Ethics.
One of the knotty and really irritating'prob
lems befdre the Federal Trade commission has
to do with ' a trade practice that seems well
founded, both ethically and morally, and yet is
capable of abuse to such an extent as gives' it
the aspect of a genuine menace. Has thewhole
saler the right to rebate to a retailer any de
cline in the market on goods already delivered?
On the surface it would appear that this should
be answered in the affirmative. Yet the Federal
Trade commission has cited a number of whole
sale druggists tcTlippear and make defense for
doing just this thing. Primarily, unless the re
tailer is given this rebate, he is required to sell
on the basiSj of the higher price, and thus .be
placed at disadvantage with regard to ' his
competitor who has purchased later, or to buy
in small quantities for immediate resale, and
thus lose the benefit in price: freight rates and
other ways ,that come with blying in large lots.
Assuming that the practice is unfair, as the H
Trade commission appears to believe, in that it
opens a way to possible abuse, does it not in
volve something more dangerous? If the
wholesaler is denied the right to give his cus
tomers the benefit of market changes, saw as
purchases are made, will jiot the process of
stepping down from the high to a lower price
level be retarded? It is easy eiougb, to get
prices up, but not so easy to get them back, and
anything that interferes with the facility of the
process is not good for the public.
Reorganizing the National Guard.
It seems to tie pretty well established that
theNational Guard is to be reformed as part of
the plan for the defense of the union. When
thi3 is sty about, it may well be on a basis 'of
greater efficiency than before existed. As arf
integral part of the national army, the Guard
should have an importance it never before en
joyed because of its almost exclusive staje
character. But this new relation should not be
made a reason for neglect by the state. Ne
braska was one of the most conspicuous of
fenders in this regard. The Nebraska National
Guard at no time received the encouragement
it properly deserved, and as a result the fact
that the state had the nucleus of two active
regiments when the war came is a tribute lo
the patriotic character of the young men who
made up the organization, and no credit to the
people of the state, who were content to see the
institution languish for lack of deserved sup
port. Jf the Guard is reived in Nebraska, it
should be given an opportunity for a decent ex
istence, and not be subject to such opposition
as was neted in connection with the Otoe
county armory bonds case. Give the boys a
chance, furnish them with necessary equipment,
. ample armories" and encampment fields, and
they will give the state service to be proud of.
It is too much to ask them to serve as they
did and expect a high grade of efficiency to de
velop under the conditions. '

5
Problems oj the Immigrant
From the New York Times.
If Secretary Lansing errs at all in his re
quest for funds to regulate immigration, it is on
the side of moderation. Great as are bur present
problemswith regard to the alien within our
gates they bid fair in the near future to become
much greater. During Jie fiscal years of 1918
and 1919 the totals ofimmigration were only
110.618 and-141,132. respectively. With the in
crease of Atlantic shipping the total rose to ap-r
proximately 45,000 a month, or 540,000 a year.
As our commerce expands there is every pros
'pect that 'immigration will keep pace witH it
American wages, at all times fabulous from the
European point of view, have increased in pro
portion to the rise in our exchange. Before the
war immigration passed the million mark in only
six years 1914, 1913, 1910, 1907, 1906 and 1905.
Already it has -reached half of this maximum,
and if strict measures are not applied it is very
soon likely to exceed it. Secretary Lansing asks
the house of representatives for $450,000 to en
force the wartiin restrictions, and in doing so
he points out that the government's receipts for
the vise of passports re more tha"n double this
sum. The charge is $2 for each immigrant. At
the prespnt rate of immigration this amounts to
more than $1,000,000 yearly. ...
Supervision at fhe port of entry touches
only a single detail, and a relatively small one,
in the problem as a whole. This has been lumi
nously described as the problem of "qualitative
selection and scientific distribution." Qualita
tive selection is already under way in Italy. Tak
ing advantage of the fact that the demand for
passports greatly exceeds the capacity of out
going ships, our consuls in Italian cities are re
ported to be thoroughly scrutinizing each ap
plicant. Italians who have been to Russia or
who are known to.be social agitators are barred,
as are also all who have been arrested on any
charge. In addition the applicant is obliged to
establish a food character and prove himself
thoroughly literate. This involves mucti added
labor; but as in the case of the enforcement of
restrictions at the port of entry, the expense
is amply covered by passport fees. The Naples
consulate alone stands to clear $100,000 this
year above all expenses. With such a system in
general use abroad, the labor and expense of
surveillance oq this side would be very sensibly
reduced.' '
A bill which Senator Kenyon has introduced
covers the problem as it presents itself Jocally
in America. It is called an Americanization
bill, and it provides, for the first time for the
centralization of our activities, state and federal,
in the elimination of illiteracy. It contemplates
a campaign among the native as well as the for
eign born", 'not only in mills and mining or
lumber camps, but on the farm, and it provides
not only for the teaching of illiterates, but for the
training of the teachers in the technique of their
task. Among the printed matter to be used are
pamphlets in the chief foreign languages de
signed to correct the misstatements in radical
propaganda and to open up the realities of
American life and institutions. Rather tardily
we are waking up to the fact that, if we had
been half, as eager and industrious in dissemi
nating therth as agitators have been eager and
industrious in disseminating falsehood, the
major portion of our industrial unrest would
have been forestalled.
Thus far our efforts have been mainly ten
tative; but they are in tle right direction and are
apparently backed by intelligent good-will. As
yet they leave the problem of "scientific distri
bution" untouched. During, Senator Kenyon's
investigations of the steel strik he was scandal"
1red to find that in a group of 150 strikers very
lew could speak English and only three were
citizens. The great vice of our immigration
hitherto has been that it tended to segregate
men of the same race in communities sealed
against outside influence. Nothing' can touch
this evil except aid and influence which shall ex
tend beyond the port of entry to the ultimate
job and home. There should be machinery for
diverting the newcomer to the field where he is
most needed and best paid, and for insuring that
he is adequately housed in a community open to
fhe American spirit. Such supervision would,
in the end, render needless the process of
Americanization by set instruction, which isat
once the most costly and lea,st effective. What
a man learns he easily loses, but what he lives
strikes in.

French Thrift Needed Here
The French people surprised the world and
won its admiration rtearly half a century ago
by paying off in three years or so the $100,
000,000 tribute levied by the Prussians follow
ing the Franco-Prussian war. Whether Ihey
will do as well proportionately now remains to
be seen, but they have made a good start on
the road to recovery from the curse and blight
of the recent war.
The unusual recuperative power 'of the
French is properly attributable to the thrift of
that people. It is said that in France scarcely
20 per cent live in rented h6mes. Whether
home-owning is the cause of thrift or thrift is
Hhe cause of homeowning in France might be
ar hard question to answer, but certain it is that
the two go together.
The people of the United States as a whole
have been unprecedentedly prosperous, not be
cause they have been thrifty, but because of the
wondeWul natural wealth of the country. Looked
at from the standpoint of the future as well as
the pkst and present, it has been a superficial
prosperity. Millions of acres of forests have
been "skimmed of thair cream," as it were, to
make ready fortunes. Millions of acres of land
have' been abused and made unfertile' to serve
the Interests of selfish owners who took no prov
ident thought of the generations to come after
them. Mineral resources have been wasted on
a tremendous scale by those whose minds were
on ittlerelse than quick and fat dividends.
This kind of extravagance and improvidence
cannot go on indefinitely for the simple reason
that the field for intensive and. wasteful ex
ploitation of nature's riches is limited. Already
the country'is paying dearly for some of the
prodigality and selfishness of previous genera
tion's. The time has come when the American
people, by force of natural circumstances, must
learn' the kind of thrift the French practice.
There should be a far greater percentage of
home-owners and farm-owners.' Thece should be
surer and better rewards for systematic sav
ing and for sound investment than now". There
should be a stronger legal and moral condemna
tion of those who 'grow rich by fraudulent ex
ploitation, and as a corollary to this there should
be a curbing of the general 'get-rich-quie-k"
passion which makes so many Americans easy
prey for financial vampires. Minneapolis Tribune.
Ho Will ProuiUy Respond.
Lincoln, Feb. 9. To the Editor of
The Bee: tv Uavfwltnessed during
rewnt monins a continuous repeti
tion of ovations In honor of a fellow
countryman. The extent and char
acter of -these ovations have neVer
been accorded any other American
in all of our history. We have noted
the spontaneous enthusiasm that has
dominated every demonstration. We
have not overlooked the ever-recurring
expressions of confidence Of
admiration of prophecy forecasting
this man's future relation to the af
fairs of the nation. We have watched
the growth of enthusiasm for the
man and the enlarging conception of
his achievement.
Yet, through it all through, these
months of homage, we -have noted
the simplicity of this man. We are
impressed with his discretion. We
are forced to acknowledge his quali
ties of leadership. . Through all The
continuous round . of hearty, un
bounded acclaim he has borne him
self with extreme modesty. Not once
has he' given utterance to a single
expression that could be construed
as even remotely bidding for public
favor. Not once among all his re
sponses and addresses has he made
an assertion that has met with the
slightest criticism from those who
could wish, for personal reasons, that
his popularity might diminish.
Jiis expressions in many parts of
our country have touched numerous
and varied interests.. Yet his obser
vations have been clear and analyti
cal his opinions logical and force
ful. Not once has his -strong, gen
tfeel, nianty- personality failed to
make an impress. Wherever his of
ficial journeyings have taken him,
confidence and admiration have in
creased. A rare spectacle this without
precedent and without parallel. John
J. Pershing, the man, bids fair to
overshadow yershing, the general
has in effect already done so. The
countless thousands who had knowl
edge only of Pershing, tho military
leader the greatest general, proba
bly, that the greatest of all wars un
covered have warmed their hearts
to Pershing, the citizen and patriot.
Whatever the achievement of
American arm;, he lias accorded full
lory anil honor to tho rank and file
of fighting men and to the loyal, un
stinted suppert from tho patriotic
home folks. Ho has with fine mod
esty kept his own great part in the
winning of the war in the back
ground, and has generously shared
the honors with all who had a part,
however limited, in tho victory. This
is the evidence of true greatness.
The grasp which Pershing has
on tho problems of international
scope problems that directly and
vitally affect our welfare has not
escaped tho notice of our statesmen
and our people. And always his
viewpoint and conclusions are strik
ingly American. His tact as a dip
lomat, his earnestness as an advo
cate and his decisive judgment as a
leader, have claimed the respect-of
all nations and the confidence and
boundless admiration "of our own.
In view of the demonstrated effi
ciency and greatness of Pershing,
the man, as well as Pershing, the
general, is there a citizen within the
boundaries of this commonwealth,
or any other, who would not proudly
accord him support, with the hope
that he may receive the nomination
for president?
It is to the credit of the republican
party that other men of ability and
experience are avowed candidates
for this very hish honor, but no
other has been mentioned as a possi
bility who is pessessed of such a
combination of seasoned abilities
aid tested strength as General
Pershing Pershing of Nebraska.x

'6hinny on your own side!" yelled
JiiM at the top of his lungs from the
vacant lot across the street. Eliza

enviously, "Boys have so much more
fun than girls." "But," she thought
further, "Why canU our bunch have
a hockey team? We" haven't-ieen
organized since we left off darning
socks for soldiers. I'll start it!"
When Jim came in he said he
would cut her a hockey stick from
the apple tre in the back yard where
heViad seen a branch with just the
right crook. "Or you can tell the
girls," he said, "to have their broth
ers dig up straight saplings; the
roots often form hard bulbs beneath
the earth and these can be whittled
into good hockey clubs. -They are
possibilities, too, in the pile of brush

parts through the center and each
half is defended by a team of eleven
players. They use a large, round,
hard rubber ball, a white practice
ball of solid rubber costs 50 cents."
Next day at recess the girls were
enthusiastic. "We'll wear middy
