LEGION OPPOSES DEPOSIT PLAN IN LAND DRAWINGS Committee Telegraphs Find ings to State Representa tive McDermott in Washington. The committee appointed by the executive committee of the Ameri can Legion in Nebraska yesterday telegraphed its findings on problems of interest to returned soldiers to K. 1'. McDermott, state representative, now in Washington. The findings will be submitted to the Department of the Interior and Nebraska con gressmen. The findings protest the demand of the Interior department for a de posit of $408 for. water rights to be paid at the time of entering draw ings They assert that $1,000,000 was deposited at the Torrington, Wyo., drawing and say that this system works a hardship on many ex-sol-dicrs. They suggest that the date of payment be made after the men have learned whether they were suc cessful. The committee favored the sol diers land aid bill and urged long time loans for exrsoldiers who wished to start farming.

Omaha Far Ahead of Other Cities in Real Estate Game Omaha is a year ahead of other cities in the United States in real f-state development, N. V. Dodge de clared yesterday at the weekly meet ing of the Omaha Keal Kstate board, at the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Dodge explained that he had investigated conditions in virtually ?ll of the large cities in the country, many of them at first hand, lie said that in no city that he has vhsited has building enterprise been as great as Omaha's. A delegation of business men front Yankton. S. D., who were expected to attend the meeting, to explain their attitude toward a proposed bridge over the Missouri river at that town, failed to appear.

Where Wood Stands In Characteristic, Frank Manner Leonard Wood Speaks Out on Principles and Policies of Our Government. "Our government must be put on a budget system. Only by carefully estimating our expen ditures and seeing to it that all departments keep within their appropriations can we hope to curb the criminally ' insane waste of any administration. Washington must cease to be the spigot from which flows all the foolish expenditures of the nation. "I firmly believe that the irk some war taxes which retard trade and prosperity and make life a burden for the small busi ness man, farmer and household er should be spread over a long er term of years. It is not fair that the people who worked and fought to save America for pos terity should have to pay all the bills, too. "America's most precious trust its children are in the hands of woefully underpaid group of high-souled citizens, our teachers. The educators of our country, highly trained for their work, hold at their dis posal the greatest asset we have against bolshevism and the red menace. They mold the makeup of our next generation. We ' must see to it that they are paid a better wage. "Relations between capital and labor between those who work and those who direct must be on the basis ot a square jeal to labor and a square deal to capital; a wage which, with thrift and industry, will enable a man to live and save. We must provide the necessary ma chinery promptly to investigate conditions at issue in strikes and for making the same public. We can largely control these conditions through sound public opinion; but sound public opin ion cannot be created without intelligent and frank publicity. We must strive to increase the human -'emcnt in the relations between employers and em ployees. We must see that labor has suitable working conditions. We mul abolish child labor. We must give an honest day's wage for an honest day's work, and in turn labor must give an honest day's work. We must not only let live but help to live. "1 believe in developing a de partment of agriculture that lul ly and intelligently co-operates with the farmer and the great farm organizations, with one at the head who knows and appre ciates the farm needs from ex perience. "The nation must be made to realize the importance of the farmer; anu the government you establish in Washington must know what the hard-working producers of our country need. "I have no apologies to make for the American uniform. If I had, it would be an insult to every soldier who died in France or in any previous war we have waged. , "Let us build up an intense American spirit selfish but helpful to a world in trouble, backed by the right kind, ot an American conscience. Fight loose-fibred internationalism as you would death, for it means national death. America has a great mission in the world, one which she can only perform by being a strong, united people." The Nation Needs Such a Man General Wood has, as an administrative official, held re sponsible positions and lias never been found wanting. He is absolutely safe and sane on fundamental principles of our con stitutional government, his feet are always on the ground, and if elected president, will seHle questions for the general wel fare regardless of its political effect. The nation needs such a man in the white house. L. D. RICHARDS, Fremont, Nebraska.
