One of the objectives put forth for the open hop movement is the elimination of undue pressure by organized labor upon the conduct of industry. A fine .balance of justice between capital and labor would be established in which dictation from either side as to whether em ployes hould be union or non-union would dis appear together with the boycott and picketing. It comes as a shock, therefore, to 'find that ugene G. Grace, president of the Bethlehem - Steel company and advocate of the open shop, has resorted to the same domineering practices of which he accuses organized labor. In New York City 4a joint legislative com mittee has been investigating causes of the flrac- ' tical shutdown of building. In following the trail of unfair restraint of industry the, began' with the Brindell building trades onions, going thence to combinations of material dealers and contractors, and coming now to the question of structural steel. A building contractor who cm ployed; only union men charged that his busi ness was being injured by the, refusal of the Bethlehem company to sell him fabricated steel unless he ran an open shop. Mr. Grace, called to the stand, frankly stated tKat he believed it was proper "to protect the open shop principle," and declared his refusal to sell to contractors employing only onion men would not be changed even if building operations in New York had to be shut down. " All that has been charged against the closed shop will now be laid also at the door of those advocating the open shop plan. If this is Mr. Grace's Idea of protecting the open shop princi ple, it must be made plain that his view is not that of the' whole group of employers who are back of the movement. If the boycott is bad when used by one side, U is equally wrong when osed by the other. Under the plea of fair play, there Is much that may be urged for the open hop principle, but to attempt to further the end by such un-American, domineering means as that adopted by Mr. Grace, in which the rights of the public to the uninterrupted process of build ing erection is menaced, is not the way to spread the idea of better industrial relations. Need the Farm' Land Bank. The farmer got something more than pats on the back from M. L. Corey, general attorney oT the Federal Land bank, speaking at tire Ne braska Farmers' congress Jiere. A definite pro gram which included gradual liquidation of farm products, revival of the Allen Root plan for a system by which producers could store crops under bond .and borrow enough money on warehouse receipts to tneet their obligation, and the restoration of .the land bank system tijere laid before the - assemblage. Convention after convention of agricultural organizations has been held in the last few months, but the lack of unanimity is the most striking feature." Mr. Corey's suggestion that part of each debt due the country hanks be settled by selling a portion of the grain now, and other parts month' by month may not be popular, since the conviction is rather general that speculators would take advantage of this assurance of continued movement to market and force prices lower. The fact is well established that exports have '' been continuing at a good rate and that there is no big surplus of wheat in the world, or In America. Mr. Corey's assertion that the farmer is being called upon to bear more than his burdetl t the cost of deflation is also gen erally .conceded. The National City bank de clares that the principal condition necessary to a revival of prosperity is that the prices of what the farming population wants to buy come into balance with the prices of what it has to sell. This touches the point squarely. More immediate aid seemSf' possible through a revival ofhe activities of the Eederal Land bank. This institution is cow tied up by a suit In the Supreme court of the United States, in which a decision has been expected ever since last October. No way of accelerating the de cision exists, but much relief undoubtedly could be provided if through a favorable opinion new sources of credit- could be opened up to start the flow of money from farm to village, to city and back again. tag is a work to which American men of medi cine should devote, more attention, says Dr. Rice. The subject ought to attract some notice, for it appears ;tobe as important to instruct these benighted ones in how to avoid some of the physical ills of thia life as it is to enable them to escape the spiritual misfortune that await the unwary in tie next ; Visitors to Marion. No one is able to sock knowledge out of his thumb, which is a way of saying that it is by experience and the exchange of experience that helpful information is to be obtained. Senator Harding, as a member of the foreign relations committee of the upper house of congress, learned much about world affairs, but he real izes that his knowledge is not complete, and can be Mtpplemcnted by consultation with tffhers, no matter what their party or how diverse their view. That is the explanation of the succession of visitors day after day 'at Mr. Harding's home in Marion. " The conferences deal particularly with the part America is to play in wofld peace. Outright opponents of the league of nations are followed by those who would ratify the cove nant with reservations, and in their footsteps come men who were fnclined to favor -unqualified entrance into the league, and those who propose substitutes such as an international supreme court or an extension of the principle of arbitration. Hughes, Bryan, Root, Hoover and many other men of high rank in public life have been invited to contribute their opinioa to the settlement of this problem. Colonel Harvey has emerged from the consultation chamber with an idea that the ultimate solution will be to give the people of every nation the right to vote on war and let the rest of the unsettled questions, including the irritants that Wed hostility, take care of themselves. No one efse has committed himself after being called to Marion, and since the meetings continue, it is possible that Colonel Harvey is the only one to have settled the problem, and that Mr. Hard ing is not yet ready to make a definite proposal. Nor will any specific plan have to be an nounced until he takes office. To consider the matter fully adjusted before it is laid before the people or the senate would be to repeat the mis take made by President Wilson. What sugges tions may come from these nonpartisan ejoun cils cannot be considered more than tentative ones offered for the consideration of the public Mr. Harding's handling of this great issue is an innovation, contrasting strangely with the backdoor conferences and the secret conclaves with party lieutenants that have marked previous administrations. One of the pledges of the re publican candidate in the campaign was that he would seek advice, and in the practical carrying out of this pledge is a promise of a successful administration, in which misunderstanding and unnecessary friction will be reduced to a mini mum. Medicine in South America. In South America, especially in the little' known regions of Colombia and Brazil,' exist untold opportunities for the young medical, man of seal and courage, says Dr. A. Hamilton Rice, scientist and explorer. It is not alone in the matter of tracing new diseases to their lair, but of spreading some knowledge of ordinary san itation and even decency among the people down there. Speaking at the Harvard School of Medi cine last week, Dr. Rice discussed conditions at he discovered them on a trip that included the upper basin of the Orinoco and the Amazon. Ignorance of ordinary requirements of cleanli ness seems to be the thing that was most noticed among the natives. Even Bogota, a capital city with 100,000 inhabitants, lacks the rudiments of modern ideas in communal sanitation.' In lesser communities, in the rural districts and along the rivers, the situation gets worse. T,o combat the diestt prevalent there and to give the people 2 oofijn ot what Is contained in right liv I . .. , v Western Union and Uncle Sam. An able and witty French statesman once re marked of the Bourbon family, "They learn nothing, and they forget nothing This might apply to some of the operating heads of great in dustries in the Untied States; especially to the president of the Western Union Telegraph com-. pany in his opposition to the government, air. Carkon-says his company will connect up its Barbadoes cable with a landing in Cuba and so reach the United, States despite President Wilson or any other governmenrauthority or agent. His attitude is not one that will strongly appeal to the American people. The action of the president and the secre taries of war and navy does not turn on the rivalry between the Western Union and its com petitors. In that the public docs have some con cern. At present the Western Union declines to accept business j(o be transmitted overseas by wireless; through this method it perhaps ham pers the operation of the Marconi companies to a considerable extent, but it is going over old ground. The Bell telephone people long go traversed the course, and came out at the losing end. It was found necessary to pass laws and otherwise to proceed to require the Bell to handle business originating on rival lines, but actual physical connection was eventually com pelled. In.Omaha a few years ago when several street railway companies were competing a court ordered them to use the viaducts in com mon. In many other ways the public" rights have been similarly protected, and it is not too much to expect that in good time the Western Union will be forced to do what all others have done handle its share of the business in connection with competitors. 1 A greater issue Is involved. Experience dur ing the war showed that Great Britain had abso lute contral of all facilities for transmitting in telligence or holding communication throughout the world. Through the order in council, emitted early in 1915, a constrictive blockade was es tablished, and not a letter, telegram or cable gram passed between neutrals not actually con- tiguous but proceeded by British consent. This is what the president has in mind; he wants to adjust matters so that in event of any great world crisis the United States will not be under the duress it had to endure from the spring of 191 S for two years until we entered the war as a belligerent. The expedient Mr. Carlton proposes to adopt, that of landing one end of his company's Barbv dots cable in Cuba, may serve for the moment, but it may be accepted as certain that our government will not admit that act as a final defeat and the closing of tV rase. May we not call to the attention of the con ductor of the adjoining column that George Saltzgiver has assumed full charge of a local drug department? Franz von Rintelcn, the German plotter, freed from United States prison, might ask Eugene Debs if he doesn't wish he had been born in Prussia.

This is moderation itself compared with Mr. Wilson's ambition to make the world safe for democracy; but Mr. Harding may be obliged to serve two presidential terms; - ON PLAYING WITH NOTES.

Many are Interested in the pro gress of what has all the indica tions of being a successful fight against leprosy, not because they have leproex, or expect to, have it or expect to nave it develop In any one in' whom they are interested, but because it is a long time enemy of mankind, one with conquests and terrors, often recorded in' sacred and profane history. While Dr.- McEwen has shown that much ot the so-called leprosy told about in the Bible was not leprosy, but other kinds of disease, there is good reason for believing that there,-was genuine leprosy in that Jlme and that it was more se vere than ia the leprosy of today. - A few years ago the Norwegians undertook to control the leprosy in their laad. They did so by building five great institutions, gathering up all the lepers from every part of Norway and holding them for life in these homes. By the time the world war had developed the num ber of lepers had , decreased so greatly that only three of these in stitutions were used as leper colo nies and the others had been turned into tuberculosis hospitals. For a number ot years in the Louisiana leper colony Dr. I. Dyer had been curing leprosy or getting results which seemed to be cures. In spite of all this gain, the most promising demonstration is that which has been made by Dr. J. T. McDonald In Kalihi hospital, Hono lulu. He has paroled 78 cases of leprosy since December, 1918. These cases are kept under observation and there has been no suggestion of relapse. The Hawaiian law provide that all persons proved to have leprosy must go to a leproey colony and Equal Rights for AIL . ; To the Editor of The Bee: In' reading The Bee of Wednesday morning -1 note the article to tha effect that the fate of the Monarch "hangs In the balance." Personally I do not think that it hanga In the! balance at all. The public can easily guess what is to be done about the OX not a colored woman who was shot, nor was he a colored man who com mitted suicide. Why, then, does this eloquent lawyer throw out this subtle bait in the hope ot winning over the members of the welfare board t 1 know something of this welfare board.

The New York City health department once distributed cod. liver oil to negro children on account of the high rickets rate among therrf.

Are there any Statistics to show the difference be tween people who have been vac cinated and those who have not in regards to smallpox? "2. What ore the statistics on deaths from diphtheria where an titoxin has been Used and where It has not-been used?" REPLY. 1. Yes, there are many. One of the best is- In the statements and figures in the vaccination creed of tho Chicago health -TJepartmcnt, prepared by DV C. H. Spald ing. The Public Health Service re ports Issued weekly give a compari son of the smallpox rate among the vaccinated and the unvaccinated in all parts of the Unted States. Prac tically all the cases are among the unvaccinated. Newsholme's "Vital Statistics" devotes 'ii pages to a dis cussion of the subject. Page 'after page is used to give figures proving the efficacy of vaccination. For in stance, In Leicester, England, where some claim vaccination has not made good, the smallpox attack rate among unvaccinated children living in homes where there was smallpox was Jo. 3 per 100. Among vaccin ated children Jn such houses, 1.6. Among unvaccinated the rate was more than 1 times that of the vac-cinated.- I. There ia a world of statistics on this point Whipple (Vital St tistics. Ills) says: "To a large ex tent the decreased fatality of diph theria has been due to the use of antitoxin, which ilecreased the num ber of deaths." Rosenau (Preven tive Medicine, l16 says: "When given in sufficient amounts during the first 24 hours of diphtheria, antitoxin reduces the mortality to practically nil." Boyd (Practical Preventive Medicine, 1920) says: "The employment of diphtheria Antitoxin as a therapeutic agent ef fected a gross reduction of 85 per cent in the mortality rate from diph theria." v Probably Have Hernia, S.
