Good for the architects who called all fnter csts, concerned in the building industry into con' ference. Ways and means of opening up con struction in the spring can, best be found by co operation between all those interests from labor to bankers. Credit is one, of the problems riv alling for importance . the question of costs of "materials and labor. With the development of the amortized form of mortgages, ample capital cari' be promised if other factors are favorable. .".While labor has increased 112 per cent in cost according to Harry Lawrie, chairman of the-conference, cement has gone up 213 per . cent, sand 200 per cent, and lumber 185 per centj over the 1916 base., Labor has already added new efficiency, which in effect is cutting down building costs, and prices of the various supplies have slipped off in some instances. The-transportation situation also is greatly im proved. ' . -, ;.' It' now remains for the public to become con vinced fhat the cost of these i various items has been' stabilized, .and for -an avert prosperity in which those, wishing to build may be assured of lhoinans of payment. , , According to a conservative, and -seemingly accurate estimate, the nation, lis today short 2,000,000 homes. This condition in itself fore casts' an unprecedented activity ifV. the building and real estate fields. Eastern Cities have suf i feretf more than has Omaha from overcrowdinar. .with its menace to public health and whole some methods of life, but prnahsV also issfiort of housing room, t America as a whole is better off than Europe, where" theytell of a policeman whispering in the ear of his prisoner, "'How much rent for your house?" Underlying conditions arel favorable to the y resumption of a very extensive building pro gram throughout the country, and activity of this sort ishailed as the natural Way out of a period ot depression, i he building trade is a barometer by1 which not only approaching storm?1 are forecast, but also She bursting fortn through the clouds of the genial rays of the s sun' Of prosperity - .- . . . ; ,; , t ' France's Moment of Decision. ; Klodesty did not impel Premier Briand to? declare that his new cabinet was not "the groat cabinet." If Poincare had been made premier. with a staff of men internationally; known, then that would have been "the great, cabinet." And France therewith would serve notice on the world that it was going into Germany to finish up the job. As it is, Briand announces that he will not yield to the insistence of the allies of" France" pat the terms of peace be modified for Germany. Premier Leygues, who steps out, was regarded by the French militarists as a weak man 'who might allow Lloyd 'Gjeorge to induce him to mitigate the burden of reparations and modify the requirements of disarmament " Poincare,' who declares that Ihere is nothing v yie Germans understand except force, represents a considerable portion' of French'opinkra which : stands ' ready to launch an invading army on Germany to compel strict compliance with the disarmament pledge. Nations which, unlike France, do not border on the kaiser's former domain, are inclined to see some logic in the .German claim that such forces as are now maintained are necessary to prevent ajjolshevist revolution. However, France sees these forces as the nucleus of. an army of ;revenge, which at leasf "could be used' in rejecting1 the observance top the -full reparation terms. ; England and Italy, on the other hand, favor less' drastic arrangements than were made at ( ' "the peace conference. N The Italian cabinet an nounced simultaneously, with the formation of the Briand cibinet that it would not support any"measur4 in the supreme council calculated to force Germany to fulfill entirely the obliga tions of Versailles. This council is now 6a the point , of settling this matter, and France w;ill be put tinder tremendous pressure to adopt a more , moderate policy. v . .. What Every Wife Xearns. ' Truly a Vronderfal science is 'psychology. Through it we may learn to interpret dreams, explain- why migratorylabor is restless, what jour iriends are reallythinkiag "'of when they spealf of other things, how-to. train children, and now; at last, how to handle a husband. An Evanston professor "has- announced a series of lectures whkh might be called "Cranky Husbands Their Cause and Cure." A sketched in his prospectus, he I will teach that there are times for the womanyto remain silent and en dure the irritable outbursts of the husband, and that' there ixt, likewise psychological moments for the wife to embark on a counter-offensive -and out-talk her mater- When a husband' nags and irritates out of pure. deviltry, he shotibe dealt. with quickly, with whatever is handy the professor declares Perhaps he does notfjmean to authorize the -tactics.. of the com4 itrips in 'which Maggie "makes use of the rollitig pin in times of great domestic stress, but jitWl evenU it can be taken as "a xecommedationfor prompt and decisive , action on certain occasions. Sooner or later all ' Ien ,n atti tudc.of unfailing sympathy Cmeekness only encourages the men folks to see how far they can go. Sometimes husbands come home just sooilias; for a fight, .'perhaps having Scored up No Discount on School Bonds. The Board o Education is reported to be un decided as to how to proceed in selling a portion of the delayed bond issue, hesitating as to ask ing authority to sell $2,000,000 at a" discount. This hesitation is justified. Admittedly,) money is "tight," but the influence that affects the sals of the bond issue at S per cent and par will affect it at 5 per. cent and 90, or any other rate As 'stated some days ago, the gas bonds sold by the city are being offered at a price to yield 5.2 per cent. This is a measure of the city's credit at present, and that of the school district ought to be very nearly the. same. The provision lim iting the interest rate and forbidding sale a dis count of city securities of any kind is wise law. To et it aside, even'in an emergency such as existsT would be imprudent, to" say the least. The Board of Education has been able to sur mount crises as great as the present and with out putting undue strain on the , credit of the district. We believe this can be done again, and the sale of bonds at a discount avoided. Cutting Down Representation. According to advices irom Washington, the number of members of the house of representa tives is to remain as at present fixed. To achieve this, the basis for selection will be raised, and twelve states will be required to; submit to a re-1 duction of their present representation. The element of fairness in this is not questioned, al though the justice of the proceedingmay bc. it it be determined that a total membership ot 483 is more unwieldy and dangerous to efficiency than, is the present number, 435, the. expedient proposed may seem good, In fact, if. the service to be rendered by the house is to be considered as in inverse ratio to its numbers, why not re duce the membership to a point where the critics will agree safety has been reached? Such argument, however, is absurd. r The house of representatives is usually referred to as the popular branch of the government This characterization has lost much of its significance since the constitution was amended to make , senators elected by direct vote. It retains something of its quality, however, because mem bers of congress are chosen for two years only, and the entire body retires at the same. time. while the senators are chosen for six-years, and at least two-thirds of the Membership of each congress holds over. The house retains at least the essence of popularity, for its members al- ways have the fresher and more direct commission.;- ', V' .-, To increase the proportional number of pop ulation, then, is to take the hpuae further away from the people. As to a membership of 483 being too great, we may submit that Great Britain, with 45,000,000 inhabitants, has 05 members in its House of Commons Ko com plaint has been raised against it as being unable to function m time of national crisis, nor has it been dubbed "parochial" in its ordinary opera tion. 5urely,-the business ot the united Mates,, with 105,000,000- people, is not placed in serious jeopardy when these are represented in congress by even 500 members, selected from districts. even if the honorable gentlemen might- at times be required to sit rather close together on the benches. ' , - ' ' , If the budget' system is7 adopted, and it un questionably will be, a new control for legisla tion has been set up, and any danger arising from mere numbers is lessened if not actually minimized. . "5 ' . These considerations deserve attention. Mem bers of congress may well think seriously before lessening the popularity of the house on a plea of economy. The people pay for the govern ment, and the million and a half estimated cost of the proposed addition of 48 members to the rolt'call can easily be 6aved in some cither way. We need'economy, but we also need to preserve the spirit1 of our government. - : Why Not Some Action? . , A freind whose inquiring mind is not satis fied with the status of affairs at Washington propounds a query The Bee admits'its inability tt. f - t.- '. . 10 answer, nc rcicrs io inc numciuu investi gations that have been made, producing direct and sweeping charges of corruption, fraud, ex travagance pnd waste, and then asks what good has come , from all the inquiry. ,: Has any one been benefited merely by the exposure of the alleged culprits, or is any effort being made to punish the guilty? We do not know what the Department of Justice is or plans on doing in this regard.. We do know that specific recom mendations of the Hughes commission in the air craft 'scandal were not carried out. Per haps the same policy will be adopted with rela tion to Muscle Shoals, the Shipping Board and other places where huge sums of public money evaporated and left no trace m the form of service. It is on record that a few. years ago the United States pursued an army officer who was guilty , of " conniving with crooked contrac tors and finally landed him. in prison. If some acivity along this line were exhibited now, and men who winked at the enormous waste of pub lic money were called to, account, the psycho logical . effect at least might be beneficial. As matters stand, the query of our friend must go unanswered. . . 1 ALirtcOTypc orTwo liable Ut IZmt, lat tke auipa'UIt bc tky r jrirp MABY GARDEN TSTTH A POSTSCKIITV Bo wohUerful your art; if vou preferred rDraymato opry. you'd be all the mustard; for you (ecauiuc Draftsmen nave averred i Slave Sarah Bernhardt larruped to a custard The Japanese, who favor Frank Vander lip for American ambassador to Tokio, should remember what a fix WHson got in by tryfhg -to press the Senate.

There are certain signs and eynip toms which are accepted asvbelng early signs of consumption. Not one of thenr." however, is exclusively a sign of consumption. In fact, tho statement about them always carries the warning "These are signs which warrant suspicion of consumption. When they (or any of them) are present, there should be a careful, thorough examination.". v If there is no consumption present, the patient is relieved of unwar ranted fears and worries. If it is present, he can regulate his manner of living so as to gain for himself the best possible chance for cure. There is no sign of consumption that is convincing to the patient as the spitting of blood. He may be doubtful about the importance of a little afternoon temperature, a per sisting cough, a slight pallor, slight loss of weight, unwarranted-fatigue. He may even say tubercle bacilli in his sputum means nothing to him. "He can't see 'em, and what he can't see he won't believe." But if he spits blood, he tumbles off his high horse and Quickly seeks a doctor. He is overcome by trepidation and trembling with fear. Yet Dr. Edward O. Otis gives 14 causes for bloody sputum other than consumption. These are: 1. Nosebleed, bleoding from the gums, bleeding from varicose veins located somewhere in the mouth, noso or upper throat. . I 2. Gastric ulcer. . S. Heart disease mitral stenosis. 4. Infarcts from emboli invito lungs. , 5. Aneurysm of the aorta. ' 6. Bronchiectasia. 7. Abscess or gangrene of the lung. 8. Influenza. . " 9. Asthma, emphysema, bronchitis. 10. Bleeding from the esophagus in cirrhosis of the liver. 11. Acute specific fevers. ' VI. Cancer. . ' , y 18. Arthritis or rheumatism. ': 14. Unknown causes. To these might be added vicarious menstruation and perhaps pneu monia, though Dr.. Otis may have meant to include pneumonia under influenza or under acute specific fevers. " Of these nose bleeding, .bleeding from the gums, bleeding from vari cose veins, vicatious menstruation. bronchiectiasias asthma, emphy sema and bronchitis are of no con sequence or of little consequence, and not worthy of much worry or even of much attention. Other symntoms of consumption each can in like measure be due. to somewhere about a dozen conditions, unrelated .to consumption, and many of them are of small consequence. If, than. nn nr more or tnese symptoms are noted; why worry yourself sick? Go and get the best examination you can and on the one hand become happy or on 'the Other become deter mined. ' ' . .
