' OMAHA'S CITY CHARTER.
Omaha city commissioners are going to the
legislators , at Lincoln today with a proposed
revision of the Omaha city charter, designed to
-'codify the existing law in a form designed to
'permit its transformation into a "home rule"
charter by vote of the people. It will not be
surprising if legisators, both .from Omaha and
' out-state, meet the commissioners, with a brass
-band and banquet. For years Omaha has
been going to Lincoln for a settlement 'of its
charter difficulties. Both Omaha and the legis
lature are tired of the procedure; both will be
gtad when "home rule" for Omaha becomes a
fact instead of a rainbow.
. The only danger now is that the beans may
be soilled en route from the kitchen to the dining
a a .' ''
. .room taoie. it tne city commissioners permit
.themselves to be led into- a trap by proposing
amendments on controversial subjects; as well
as a codification, this may happen easily. The
out-state legislators, by constitutional amend-
ment and legislative,, act have opened the door
to "home rule." Now they ' want Omaha to
"make use of it. If Omaha wants them to assist
tiv AtmiSltfvinflr iln nrinf rttartr. in rre&9 fiv
save the expense of a double election, they will
.help. 'But if, in that process, Omaha attempts
to do one final job of charter tinkering with
the usual accompaniment of uproarious argu
ment, personal vituperation and numerous dele
gations 1n battle arraythen the legislators are
apt to show ('thumbs down" on any and all
charter proposals, i ,'. ,
Varous changes in the charter are being pro
posed from within and without the city . ball.
Some are good, some are not so good. Most In
volve differences, of opinion on the part of vari
ous elements of the jelectorate. If the city com
missioners incorporate t these amendment! ' in;
the general charter bill, .trouble, is well nigh
certain. . Those who oppose "home rule" can ask
nothing better for it's defeat than such an, amal
gamation. By, attacking this, arid" that amend
ment they" cart 'easily arouse legislative opposi
tion to the whole project. y -,
' Entangling' alliances, In . this as) In other
things, are dangerous. Let the codification of
"the charter be one bill; let the various amend
merits stand, on their own feet. -
A- i - ;
Cora for tha Starving. ,
Millions starve, in Europe and millions more
in China, while: in the corn belt of the United
States are: great stores of "yellow grain that
seem scarcely ', to have a market, It was in
'Omaha that the idea of connecting up this
dearth and plenty first arose, and now. jf; R.
Howard, oresident of the American Farm 1 Bu
reau federation, brings K into national promi
nence. No one need starve for want of food,
and the farmers of the west sfend willing to give
generously from their corn' cribs . if the relief
'organizations' ; will finance its shipping, Mr.v
. .Howard declares.. . . '"f .;,'i'N ' 'V' '
Herbert Hoover is reported to favor shipping
com to China, but not to Europe, believing that
rice and condensed milk, are more suitable for
Sthe chiltfreli who will be his care. To a certain
extent this may be true, although the popular
impression that America is the onl .country,
knowing how to utilize corn for human, food is
erroneous.
COrn probably is a native of America, but
its cultivation lias spread over the world. It
,was introduced into Spain by re1 turned explor
ers in the 15th century; and reached France 100
years later. From. Spain .it a,s0 spread into
Italy, and from thence into Switzerland, Aus
tria and Southeastern Europe, and thence irlto
the .Khine'ralley. The Portuguese are given
credit for carrying the seed to Asia and Africa.
Wavinor erown this crop, the people of the-world
are familiar with it as a food, and even were they
not, they would probably prefer it to the, roots
and bark of trees 'which now is the only food
of some. , '
- The farmers in many cases are not, able to
give money to these good causes, tut undoubt
edly ittnd willing to divide with the famine
stricken people theifsuper-abundance of food.
This .charity is not without its practical side,
for undoubterly the future market for - corn
would be expanded by developing jnore of a
taste for it, and it is not altogether unlikely
' that the value of the corn remaining in the
farmers' hands would be increased if large ahip
toents abroad should be made this season. '
Yet it is not in selfishness that Nebraskans
are urging that corn be utilized in the name of
relief. The most practical of all reasons is that
we have a surplus of corn and that if those who
are ahungerfcan be given access to itt humanity
will be served with least waste and most effec
tively. . , ; - "' ' ' ; - "

Value Received from Taxes, y
At times of scares fuch as recently brought
heavy police guards to the homes of J.-P. Mor
gan, John D. Rockefeller anff" other wealthy or
arominent citizens of New York. it becomes
'more apparent why. theyshould be wdhng to
pay heavy taxes, it is not only, that they are
able to pay more than poorer men.but that their
if Af tha state fa 'greater. ' And, n this case, ,
the cost to the state of protecting them ift their
Tights is also larger. i. ' 1 n'r V f
V Vh'tt itizen contribute to the income tl the
wament, they are paying fundamentally for
'the uplioldirig of their right to life,; liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. The concessions man
makes to organized government are less than
the benefits be receives., This must be true, or
governments would not exist and anarchy would
be preferable. . "
Sell School Bonds in Omaha.
While the Board of Educationis considering.
method to secure the funds needed for the
erection of the High School of Commerce build
ing, it might adopt a plan in line with the sug
gestion already made by The Bee that the-citizens
be given an opportunity to purchase the
bonds. Some consideration has been given this
thought by certain of our influential citizens,
and they are of the opinion that means may be
obtained for carrying otf- at least that portion
of the building campaign which includes the new
high school without either raising the interest
rate or discounting the bonds. Omaha citizens
subscribed a million dollars to provide Ak-Sar-
Ben.. Field, an amusement enterprise, fromi
which only indirect returns will come. Is it
unreasonable to think that they will be as ready
to purchase bonds which are backed by their
own credit, the object being the construction of
a school budding all agree, is sorely needed?
Why not offer the bonds in fmall denominations
to the citizens, and see if they are unwilling to
finance their own schools?

7 ' . Prayers That Made History.
At the age of 72 years the blind chaplain of
the house of representative, Rev. Henry Noble
Couden has retired on a pension. Through the
stress and storm of the last 25 years his prayers
have gone up for those who make our laws.
Twice in this time he, who had lost his sight
while a youthful soldier in the Civil war, blessed
the nation as it took up arms. His -prayer on
the day congress declared war against Germany
was not only a model of brevity, but ranks as
an historical document. It went, thus;
Almighty God, our heavenly father, : we .
know not how or why, but we are here, and
we believe enough the promptings of infinite
love. Thou t hast Imbued us with the mar
velous faculties of mind ana soul, ami bade us
go forward day by day to new achievements
and larger ife. Help us, we beseech thee, to
think wisely and act conscientiously, and to
leave the rest to a wise providence, which has
never vet failed' us. And everlasting praise
wj will give to thee, through him who taught
us how to live and how to die if or liberty,
justice, truth and righteousness. Amen.
As the struggle lengthened out there devel-
opend both pathos and a burning hope in the
daily supplications of the, chaplain. When the
sinking of the transport Tuscania brought the
first regl shock of war, his plea became not
vengeful, but more fervent: " :
Of old thou didst encourage the saints with i
unusual evidence of thine approval. We are
far from laying claim to be saints, dear Lord.'
Yet we sincerely and humbly believe that in
our stand for justice and humanity we are
supporting a cause that is precious to thee.
Give unto us, therefore,! courage and cheer.
and tokens of thine approval and signs of
sure victory. ... v .
Then, - with the signing of the armistice, he
prayed for wisdom's descent on the victors, that
wars should forever end, saying in part:
' Hostility has ceased. Democracy is spread
ing its wings over the earth; Autocracy, mili
tary, kaiserism and all the. evils connected with
them shall cease to be. Freedom, liberty,
truth, justice,, righteousness,' live, to the glory
and honor of Thy holy name.
Perhaps not all the good that any of us hoped
and prayea for hat come out of the world con
fiict, but the prayers of the blind .soldier-chao
lain in congress wilf live to tell future ages of'
the ideals which sustained America during' the
world's time of agony; . 1
' SHOULD aprke t again motivate - us to
change the motto of ' this column, . we could
hardly improve on a warning which we lately
observed affixed to a buildijg ; jn process of

"I seen my sister's baby, last nlgrht." "
VWhlch siter,the married one?"
AS you gathered from a recent ad, the holi
day season in (Mexico Cty was gay. A writer
for the English section of Excelsior, attempting
to quote Bryant, was uncommonly inspired, as
witness: v" . '
'He who from sons to sone.

, , "MILLIONS of , dollars Jiave been spent on
the naval station." says CSDt, Mottctt. who. oe
ing-a mere naval man, does not understand the
workings of the administrative mind. The fact
that millions of dollars have been spent on the
station is one reason for thinking that it will be
abandoned. . ' , .

Alfalfa Hay and Freight Rates.,
Anyone who heard the "Tadpole" chorus lift
its tuneful Voice, in harmonious rendition of
"Alfalfa Hay" out at Ak-Sar-Ben's Den knows
the pride Nebraska takes in one of its principal
products. Supporting this honest feeling are
the figures from ' the expert crop estimator at
Lincoln, who presents an exhibit showing that
Nebraska at last has produced more alfalfa than
Kansas, , In ithir"state last year 1,232,947 .acres
brought forth 3,527,689.5 tons, an average of
2.86 tons per acre, which js some fair hay yield,
.and bn December 1, 1919, this had an estimated
farm value of $35,276,895, or about $10 a ton.!
Since that time the price has slumped materi
ally, and the farm value is correspondingly less.
"Very good," says the alfalfa raiser, "but what
am I . going to. do with my hay, now that I have
it? Freight rates at present are such that the
price in Omahk will just about pay transporta
tion charges from : the field to city market."
The easy answer is to feed the alfalfa to stock
close to the meadows where it grew, but this
suggestion does not arouse much enthusiasm.
Some further readjustment will have to take
place before thte alfalfa owner willvbe as jubi
lant over his achievement as is the recorder of
crop yields. ' i - 1

C) tW aiinnlv of the e-ullihte there seems to
v . - r r
be no limit,' ?No scheme is too diaphanous to
fail entirely of -ensnaring some. ; Just,, promise
the certain reward of inordinate profits to be had
for small investment and no risk, and the rest
is easy. One of the latest of the exemplifica
tions of this time-tested, truth is afforded by the
experience of,, the investors in German marks.
Some actuated by, a sincere desire perhaps to
help the Germans, others lured by the hand
some gains that were to follow the sure ascent
of the mark in its value, took the word of the
promoters and "gave honest-to-goodness United
States money for bales of so-called German
currency. Wow it developes that most, it not

Rt'RAIi S.NITATIOJf..'
In .New Hampshire they , have
made use of a type of small septic
ank for nearly 1! years. ; The
people are well satisfied , with it So
thoroughly are they satisfied with
it that the atate board of health of
New Hampshire recommends it not
only In that state but to the people
of the northern section . xf the
United States in general. '
H. R. Crohurst of tha United
States publlo health service thinks
It ban be successfully used in the
south, as well, provided the tlans
be siigmiy modiried to suit the cli
mate and the soil.
The people who live in cities and
towns where there ft a sewer eys-l
tern know that their typffold rates
and infant diarrhoea rates have
been lowered thereby. But they do
not know how difficult is sewage
disposal where there are no sewers.
These new standards of health,
which" nearly every one now 'de
mands, create discontent with con
ditions which satsfled us 25 years
ago. ..'.-.
The New Hampshire ' type '- Is
suited to homes in which 20 or
more people Nvo, or to groups of
homes in which a total of mora,
than 20 people live, and which are
sp situated that they can use , a
common septic tank. -
The details. .of the New Hamp
shire type are these: - The septic
tank should be at least -6x3 ft x4 ft
eet, with a capacity of 94 cubic
feet. - .
It would be wasteful to build a,
tame smauer man tnis one, ana to is
one is capable of serving 0 people
There should bo an "allowance of
four cubio feet, or SO gallons ca
pacity, for each person, using the
tank. A tank for a school with 4 up
pupils should bo 24x8x7. -
The tank should bo located tn the
yard as near tha house as practi
cable. It should be covered by 12
to 18 inches of soil. It should be
built of concrete - (the large tanks
with relnforded walls), with a tighjt
lining: cover, ana no venui&uoa
There should be bafflea The. In
let and outlet pipes should enter so
aa to allow 12 to 15 inches of gas
between the sewage and the top of
the tank. These tanks should have
an elbow and a short arm running
three feet before the sewage level.
The effluent should run off by
tllea. Th cine to the seotio tank
from the house should ba four 'to
six inches in . diameter, glazed and
laid with cemented Joints ana with
a fall of one foot to the hundred,
The discharge from the septic
tank is carried awttMby tile four
to six inches in diameter ana lata
With a fall of two to three 'inches
to the 100 feet. The first 10 or 12
feet fronv. the tank should be glazed
tile laid with cemented joints.- '
-After that the tiling should be
oorous and laid With open joints.
The top of the tile at the joint line
should be covered with tar paper or
burlap and the end with some straw
to keep the sou irom working into,
the drain. , ' . V ;
Itris very much Better to provide
the eptlc; tank, outfall with a dosing--chamber
and automatic syphon
discharge and to guard its entrance
by a grease trap. Whether the
effluent is to be discharged Jnto a
leaching cesspool, blind drain, or
subsurface tile system depends- on
the type of soil. . Also whether a
double line of tile In1 a' tile -trench
is to be laid and. the, total laryrth of
tile to be used are j determined by
the kind of soil. , v ' , , '
