THS NEV POLICE ORDINANCE. - The city commissioners are scheduled to consider this morning an ordinance introduced by Commissioner Zimman -which proposes rad ical changes in the organization of the police de partment. This ordinance should not pass and for the very best of reasons. The Zimman proposal provides that no man shall hold a place on the police force, other than as a patrolman, unless he shall have served two years or more as a patrolman. It forbids pro motion of patrolmen to places as detectives, sergeants, captains or other offices except after a fixed term of service in each of the respective lower grades. Further, it provides that all pro motions must be by seniority, that the man who has served longest as patrolman must be given the first vacancy as a sergeant or detective if otherwise competent, and that the same rule be followed in higher grades. It is further pro vided that no officer Je demoted except on spe cific charges subject to formal trial by the city commission. The avowed purpose of this ordinance is to eliminate political favoritism or spoilsman- ship. That purpose is proper, but the method ' proposed contains elements that may become destructive of ..personal initiative and depart mental discipline. A pojice superintendent or chief unhampered by such restrictions as proposed by this ordi-. nance may, if he is incompetent or corrupt, , wreck a police force; on the other hand, a com petent and honest police head tan build a real organization. But, under the proposal, a com petent man would be handicapped in his efforts to defeat mediocrity or win efficiency. Red tape restrictions, plus interference of six other com missioners, would place the head of the police department at a disadvantage. , No restrictions of law or ordinance can es tablish honesty and efficiency in a police depart ment if the head of the department will it other wise. But neither can any superintendent do that thing if tied hand and foot by regulations imposed on him by law. The Allen-Gompers Debate. Interest shown in the joint debate between Governor Allen of.Kansas and Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, is disproportionate to the result, but an excel lent indication of the healthy interest taken in the problem. As was inevitable, the debaters confined themselves almost exclusively to ab stractions, dealing with elementary propositions, at no place approaching any basis for an ad justment of the relations between employer and employe. From Governor Allen's statement that Gompers' remedy is more war, while his , own is for peace, may be gained the tenor of his thought, whjle the labor leader contended for , the right to strike as an attribute of freedom. Students of the industrial problem will regret tha the meeting took the turn it did. Much good might have been accomplished had some, time been given to consideration of the serious endeavors of both the unions and the associa tions of employers to devise some effective and ' workable method for settling the questions that arise in industry without a cessation of pro ductive effort. The strike is a terrible weapon, dangerous to both sides, as also is the lockout. ' Success won in either way is not permanent, for it rests on force and not on agreement. Many , ways of reaching a mutual understanding are r open, and these are serving a good purpose, for they are bringing the two sides into closer con fidence and a clearer comprehension each of the - other's troubles. None of these was considered in the argument between the governor and the president of the labor group. The Kansas law, on -which Governor Allen lays much stress, has in it the germ of justice on j which the solution must fjnally depend. It de . pends on the principle of impartial inquiry and - consideration, with a final determination of each - case on its merits. It also holds the element of danger, for, while it (Undertakes to provide the , public with full protection in the matter of cer " tain necesesities, it does so at the expense of a - fundamental human right If the worker is to be deprived of his right to go on strike, he miist be compensated therefor by a safely guaranteed assurance of immediate and speedy considera tion of hjs claims or grievances, with the rea sonable certainty of their rectification. Unless s this can be done, the strike to enforce settlement 7 will continue to vex industry as long as men are free to struggle and fight their way up to better - things. , Experience is teaching its lessons, and the " future will see improvement in all conditions of . . . . me. . t , llie, Out SO long as mere is icn auruuuf nvnu having, just that long will there be competition for it, and competition begets strife as surely as . sparks fly upward. - ' , it Joteph Hayden. ; In the death of Joseph Hayden Omaha has " lost a cititen and Merchant of high and unusual quality. Head of a firm whose activities have made its name widely known, he had the con- servative characteristics of the older school, but J""a's open to the impressionof newer methods, - and so stood a type of the strong man in busi ' I ness.

His philanthropies were not blazoned with any flourish of trumpets, but were substantial and generous. Death came to him quietly and ap parently without warning. Atone he went to sleep on the eve of a busy day, full of plans and preparations for the morrow, and peace fully he withdrew from the world in which he had been so busy for so many useful years. His was an end that any might wish, just as his life was an example of industry and faithful dealing. Grease and Gas.- Oil has advanced prodigiously as an eco nomic necessity in the United States, and the development of oil territory has become a scien tific industry of enormous proportions. The production in 1919 was 366,000,000 barrels, not enough by 97,500,000 barrels, to meet the de mands of American consumers. We imported that great quantity from other countries. American oil companies, always on the search for future supplies, have not confined themselves to our own soil. Within the past year the Standard 'has absorbed more than a quarter of a billion dollars of new capital from the public to be used in development. There is reason to believe other American companies are interested in oil territory abroad. England has been gobbling oil fields for years in other countries while permitting- no alien oil seekers on her own soil. The United States, on the other hand, has welcomed foreign invaders to her oil fields, and they have profited hugely from our product. We have an English controlled company in full possession of a large section of our oil resources. ' With a gasoline shortage predicted this summer and automobiles multiplying until there is one for each five or six persons in some states, and hundreds of millions of gallons burned up for pleasure every year, the time seems not far off when we shall have to con serve the power it represents by, law. Prices will not controj conservation, for the man who has a car is going to run it, even at ruinous ex pense. It has become one of 'his necessities. A Foreign Missionary View. Rev. Arthur Judson Brown, whose business is foreign missions, and whose heart is unre servedly with foreign peoples, spoke plainly at the Presbyterian general assembly the other day.' He said: Our co-operation is needed to give stability and power to the Treaty of Peace and the League of Nations. God won the war, but the devil is winning the peace. Sixteen wars are now being waged. The allies are irritated at each other. . .i . At the end of the war our prestige was high. Today jv&are suspected and disliked The time has come for, Christian men to make stern and indignant protests over the dillydallying on the League of Nations. x We wonder what the home mission au thorities may have to say in rebuttal. The for eign mission men would have us supply 'the sta bility and power (cash resources and military strength) to control Europe and Asia, an,d win the sixteen wars now being waged, in the face of the suspicion and dislike of the peoples con cerned. Some b. Could it be possible that a home mission man exists who is willing to speak up for the United States and its welfare, present and future? Or is the citizenship of this country to become a vicarious sacrifice for foreign mission ambitions and do the fighting, suffering and paying for the whole world? ' Verily the League of Nations enthusiasts are getting farther and farther from home with their hopes, plans and wishes. The Tax Master. In all the history of our beloved country no hand ever got so deep into the pockets' of the people, ever took therefrom so much money, or ever sought to establish future drains upon their cash resources, so industriously and persistently as the hand of Woodrow Wilson, acting as the national executive of the White House policy of "billions for Europe, not one dollar for Amer ica." ' ; We have Herbert Hoover's authority (and there is none better on food economics) that but for Wilson's stubborn refusal to take the urgent advice of his own hand-picked' sugar equalization board, we would now be buying Cuban sugar at 12 cents a pound retail, instead of 24. ; ' , The Wilson hand plucks 12 cents of the 24 from the pockets of the people for every pound of sugar they buy. And within ,ten days he has sought to divert hundreds of millions of treas ure and nobody knows how many American lives by fastening upon us a mandate to finance and fight to establish and maintain an Ar menian government In all history no man has been or sought to be so lavish in the expenditure of other "people's money or the clamping of galling tasks upon the sons of other fathers all for the benefit of peoples far away from the nation, whose in terests he is sworn to give his -first attention and consideration. Speed the day when we shall have a president irlterested in America's happiness and prosperity! . ' A Line O'Type or Two Haw to tkt LIm. M Mm Im fall Mr Um a. Do-Nothing Population.' Perhaps we shall have next winter or spring l great exodus from the cities of men in search of food. We shall surely have it if faftn pro duction this summer is insufficient. In which event we trust the farmers will have plenty of hard work for those seeking sustenance. City life presents altogether too many opportunities for shirks and loafers to "live easy," too many light employment's, toO many dubious ways of getting money without work. It is not too early now for forward looking cities to begin getting rid of people who have io visible means of living honestly. Every one ,f them is existing at the expense of the city axpayers or by theft. And they will continue e do so Until driven to work, preferably on the arms, where their 'muscle is needed. LAMENT. My heart has told me, breathing low, How sunlit pastures after rain Comb out their tangled Blopes again: How mcrshland haunts wo used to know Are purple where the violets grow. My traitor heart too well has told How in a garden that we knew The last ping crocus spills its dew, How sweet the pyacinths unfold, And how the Jonquils preen their gold. My heart has gone on homing feet To seek Wisconsin fields again, Where robins steal the sprouting grain Forgetting that it once held sweet This dingy wall and barren street Oh, chill gray city by the lake, Where now the cold gulls scream and soar, And sullen waves against the shore, Sullenly rise and loudly break, Much have I lost for your dear sake. JESSICA. ONE of the Wake's mourners relates that John Rathom once called at a club to interview a member, and was rebuffed by the doorman, who said, -"This club is for gentlemen, not for reporters." A more tactful doorman was em ployed by Millionaire Jones on his country place. A friend who had been invited to call arrived in a ford. The doorman said gently, ihis is Mr. Jones residence. Preaching and Practice. ' Sir:' A second-hand lumber company is open ing up a yard on Elston avenue. They have a sign over the gate, "Woodman, spare that tree, build with second-hand lumber."

PROBLEM OF CONDUCT. From the British Weekly. Mrs. Carr meets at a friend's house Mrs. Beckett who lives in the same avenue as Mrs. Carr. They know each other very well by sight and 'have often exchanged greet ings. Mrs. Carr has come to the avenue more recently than Mrs. Beckett. She Is a friendly woman. She says to Mrs. Beckett: "We are near neighbors; I shall b so pleased if you will call." Mrs. Beckett re plies: "Thanks, but I do not care to enlarge my circle." What should Mrs. Carr say? My word!" or "Fawncy!" would be a neat come-back, although Mrs. Carr really ought to bust her one on the nose. COL.

I wish to thank them that they did not wait until the. Doctors, looking wise,, said: "He's dead." Immediately they nd for the undertaker to be sure that 1 am dead. He cuts my veins, lets out what blood I have in me, pumps me full of poison, sews my eyes and lips together so I can't speak or wink at my friends, puts me In a casket, screws the top down on it so I can't get out. Taking more precautions they put me In another box and fasten it good and tight; a tew more precautions, they put me in a deep hole six by six by three; then put soft dirt all around the side of my box; then at a signal, for fear that I come back all hands join in piling dirt on me as long as they can get it; then to give me trouble to get up if I could, they take their spades and pat .the dirt' on me good and strong, then here comes the friends with flowers and pile them on my grave as long as they can, then stand back and look down on where I am and say smell them flowers If you can. I say I thank you for giving me my flowers while I make this earth my , habitat. Yours for passing a smile. A. W. SPRINGS, M. D. ''GOV.

A sound, sorrowful and startling like the sigh of some immense creature, traveling across the starless space, passed above the vertical and lofty spars of the motionless brig. It grew louder, then suddenly ceased for a moment, and the taut rigging of the brig was heard vibrating its answer in a singing note to this threatening murmur of the winde; A long and slow undu lation lifted the level of the waters, as If the sea had drawn the deep breath of anxious susnense. The next minute an Immense disturbance leaped out of the darkness upon the sea, klndjing upon it a livid clearness of foam, and the first gust of tne squall Doarded the brig In a stinging flick of rain and spray. As if overwhelmed by the sud denness of the fierce onset, the vessel remained for a second upright where she floated, shaknlg with tremendous Jerks from trucks to keel; wnne nign up in the night the invisible canvas was heard rattling and beating: about violently. Then, with a quick double report, as of heavy guns, Dotn topsails Ailed at once and the brig fell over swiftly on her side.

L, Xi , MORE ON BABY FEEDING. Every baby should be breast fed, but it is not always possible to bring this about. The Boston Baby Hy giene association favors breast feed ing in practically every case, and yet In the summer of 1910 of the 6,000 babies under 1 year of age being watched over at their sta tions, and by their nurses in the homes, those less than 6 months of age were found to be entirely arti ficially fed. In this country, at least there is a general agreement among phy sicians that fresh cow's milk of good quality is the best substitute for hu man milk. But what can be done when the household has no icebox and cannot afford Ice? The answer ordinarily given is sweetened con densed milk or some one of the baby looas. In the Public Health Reports for April 2 Dr. W. H. Price said: "The appearance of dry milk pow der as a common household com modity in the retail shops and In possession of some city milk dealers suggests inquiry regarding the safety and usefulness of remade milk." In consequence, Dr. Price co operated with the Boston Baby Hy giene .association and the Boston health department In an Investiga tion of dried milk as a food for babies. In all, about 105 babies were fed on milk made by dissolving powder in water. They were thus fed for about three months. They were di vided Into three groups. One group was fed natural cow's milk, diluted according- to age. Another group was fed milk made by dissolving whole milk in water. A third group was fed milk made by mixing skim milk powder and unsalted butter. The babies of the three groups did about equally well. The babies fed on milk powder and water and skim milk powder, unsalted butter and water grew about as fast as the babies fed on ordinary milk. Dr. Price comes to the conclusion that the use of milk powders is safe, also that they are useful baby foods. However, milk made from milk powder should be labeled for what it is and should not be substituted for natural milk in a manner to de ceive the purchaser. The above warning; relates to milkmen who may buy milk powder, mix it with water, and sell it for ordinary milk. The nurses and physicians who re ported on this experiment said that In the case of babies who digest nat ural milk badly the products made by dissolovlng milk powder In water or dissolving skim milk powder and unsalted" butter in water had points of distinct advantage. Products made In this way had very low bacterial counts. Some of the British health authorities give milk powder undissolved or dls solved In very little water to some babies who are unable to digest ordi nary cow's milk; O. K. In Moderation. O. N.

Omaha, May 29. To the Editor of The Bee: That the Armenian Christians have the sympathies and need the protection of the American people is certain. If protection Is lo be given, how it is to be given may be considered. The League of Nations covenant, Art 22, says: "The degree of au thority, control or administration to be exercised by the mandatory shall, if not previously agreed upon by the members of the league, be explicitly denned, in each case, by the coun cil." Thus, if the United States accepts the league covenant and league man datory, it will do so not as the ad ministration of Armenian affairs but will furnish the military forces, place them under the authority of the league council and be its servant and tool in the government or Ar menla. This is "explicitly" provided for. . The council Consists of five mem bers, of which a representative from aristocratic England, one from heathen, monarchlal Japan and one from monarchlal Italy, would consti tute a majority and governing power, It would be as far removed from a democratic government, or Ameri can principle of government or American humanity, liberalism and ideals as can be Imagined. Our country is great enough to protect Armenia alone. It need ask neither permission nor aid from any power or combination of powers, we n6ed sacrifice no Americanism to protect Armenia by placing over it an un-American and distrustful. If not disreputable government We are able to do for Armenia and its people of every class in an Ameri can, Golden Rule, democratic way, what It has done for Hawaii.

It is a field for worthy American statesman ship. It is an opportunity to assort Americanism, extend American In fluence, American principles of gov ernment and American prosperity that should not be neglected as it has been neglected to tho shame of the American people in Mexico.. It will cost the American people nothing. Our congress has already (unwisely and unnecessarily) voted a large regular army. It will cost no more in wages, being located In Ar menia than at home and but little more otherwise, and that little after a year or two would be paid by Ar menia. The main results of Independent American protection of Armenia will be preserving it from the military despotism of designing monarchlal governments, such, for Instance, as Japan now exercises over Corca. Oaths and protestations of good In tentions by monarchs and mon archlal statesmen are customary and made to deceive. They are worth less. That the principles of the league mandate put forward by the league, Article 22, as a mask to cover iniquitous purposes of spoliation, are apparent to any careful reading. He who runs may read. That an irre sponsible council of five persons (a majority of them) should be given explicit control tand administration in each case of a great country is enough to condemn it. It would be worthy Americanism for our country to protect Armenia and unworthy of It to do it in the deceitful league covenant way. J. 8. What Conkllng IWlly Said. Omaha. May 28.
