Regular Course for Bonus.
U conk-rcii paes a aoldier boiAts bill, it will
Le only alter the measure hai proceeded by the
regular channel:.. No special favor is to be
granted, no short cut of legislative maneuvring,
no limitation of .debate, other than is applied to
any bill, when the huu.-e ways and means corn
mittre presents its compromise measure. After
& consultation with the president, Floor Leader
Mondelt reports Mr. Harding not disposed to
make a recommendation at this time. Whether
this will be interpreted as an effort to evade, or
merely to require that congress accept its full
share of responsibility, the president is evidently
minded to see that legislative action on this sub-.
ject proceed without further interference from
the executive. He has expressed himself plainly
enough on the subject, his pronouncement that
any, bonus plan must be accompanied by a
method for paying it, leaving details to congress.
Deprjving the measure of "unanimous con
sent" privileges, which automatically would limit
debate, places it squarely on its merits. At what
ever time it comes up for discussion, it will be
bubject to any fire its opponents may seek to
direct against it. Just as a political move, and
considerable politics is involved, 'this plan will
have republican approval, for it will make 'the
democrats take a stand and not permit them to
liter criticize what was done by a brutal
majority under a rule that forbids debate. They
will now have a full, fair chance to' say what is in
their minds as to the bonus.
- None of these steps has any direct effect on
the chances of the bonus being passed. Unless
unexpected defection occurs among the repub
licans, the measure will go through the house and
v.p to the senate. It will likely go in something
very near its present form, although some amend,
ment may be made in the process of considera
tion it is now destined to undergo before the
house. With house leadership pledged to its en
actment, and the senate favorably inclined, the
bonus bill has bright light ahead.
Annie Morgan's Mission.
Addressing herself to Omaha audiences, Hiss
Annie Morgan brings a message from' a brave
people who are splendidly working to bring
themselves from the depths to which they were
thrust by a terribly destructive war. The re
habilitation of France was such a task as never
was set for a civilized people in all the world's
history. It is not merely the inevitable result of
the visitation of thousands and hundreds of thou
sands of tons of explosives, applied to the land in
every conceivable way. More than the fighting,
took place to destroy. Scientifically trained ex
perts looked over what escaped the battle, and
deliberately took to pieces and carried off what
might be useful and as deliberately obliterated
the rest. Mines, mills, factories, workshops,
dwellings, farms, all were involve in this ruin.
And in three and one-half years France has re
paired" 80 per cent of this total devastation, and
is carrying on persistently in the work of restor
ation. Perhaps this will explain why the French,
statesmen are so insistent on the terms of
reparation as laid down under the Treaty of Ver
sailles. Miss Morgan's mission is to visualize
what is being done, what part Americans have
had in doing it, and what may yet be done to
aid the French in their efforts to recover. No
scheme of charity, of international finance, or any
thing of that sort is involved. It is merely a
plea for a little more help for a people who, are
bravely striving to help themselves. -C
Brass Tacks on Taxation.
Led by the Greer articles in The Bee, tax
payers are taking a soberer view of the situation,
and are giving more careful consideration to all
factors of the problem. First, they are practically
agreed that, the dance having been ordered, the
tiddler must be paid. Plans may be laid to en
gage less expensive music for the next party, but
the one that has just been concluded is the one
to be settled for first. This may arouse property
owners from the state of mind that is aptly de
scribed in a paragraph from a letter written by
Editor Strunk of the Red Willow County Gazette
to the editor of The Bee. Mr. Strunk writes:
Taxation is the one great evil as generally
- looked upon by the taxpayer when he is con
fronted with the sam. And this is about the
only time be really considers the same se
riously. A few days after he has visited the
..court house and contributed his part to the
'maintenance of the city, county and state, he
v relieves his mind by banishing the idea until he
is again confronted with the tax collector. Con
sequently, little has been accomplished along
the line of improving the system of taxation,
and as a matter of fact, it has been going from
bad to worse until at the present time the peo
ple are thinking about the subject more than
o ever before, and in many cases they find them
selves unable to meet the situation.
' This does not fully answer the problem, nor
does Mr. Strunk's further suggestion that strict
enforcement of the law and a fuller valuation of
all property for taxes will provide the solution.
The discussion is in the highest tense helpful,
for it is bringing out thoughts, and from all will
come some light and the way out may be shown.

Pleading for Protection for Potash.
Forty-four producers of potash are making a
last stand at Washington, trying to get a
provision in the tariff bill that will enable the
American article to go on the market in com
petition with thafwhich is imported from Ger
many. Before the war, on several occasions, the
German government threatened to shut off the
exportation of potash, in order to enforce some
element of a bargain it was undertaking to drive.
America is admitted deficient in the mineral sup
ply, and. yet did produce more than was needed
during the war. Nebraska is concerned in this,
for a very large per cent of the mineral basis for
fertilizer and other nitrate products came from
the lakes of this state. If the tariff is made suf
ficiently high to enable the Nebraska lakes to
compete with the German mines, the industry
will revive. Beneficiaries of cheap fertilizer are
the farmers, principally those of the south and
the Atlantic seaboard. These derive a direct and
immediate benefit from low-priced potash, and
are interested in having the supply come from
the cheapest possible source. An industry amount
ing to $30,000,000 a year has virtually beeji ex
terminated by the German competition. Congress
will have to answer if American potash is to be
used . for American fertilizer, for without some
countervailing tariff the market is controlled by
the German potash trust to the exclusion of the
home article.

Building Under Headway. . ,
One substantial evidence , that building is
under way' in Omaha once more is afforded by
the sight of loads of material of different kinds,
traveling to the spot where they will be erected
into walls, to be called home, or church, or
school, or store, for all classes of construction is
going on. X his has not as yet assumed the pro
portions of a boom, but the amount of work
going on is far in excess of what it was a year
ago. X)n other times The Bee has told of the
big jobs that are being done, the new High
School of Commerce, the Medical Arts building,
and some of those structures, -whose costs runs
into the millions. Permits for these were all
taken out long ago, and have been recorded.
Now comes the showing from the office of the
city's building department, that in February,
1922, permits were issued for the construction
of 119 buildings, to cost $474,825; this comparing
with 67 buildings to cost $179,620 issued, in Feb
ruary, 1921. The great majority of the permits
issued are for homes, and the fact is stated in
connection with the total that the average cost
of the homes now'being built is $5,000, which
emphasizes the claim that Omaha is the city of
home-owning wage earners. No better sign of
permanent growth as well as returning prosper
ity could be asked than is provided by the build
ing inspector's report. V

(From the Boaton Transcript)
Appointed to consider the Ureal Lakes-Si
larrnr deep waterways project, a specie! com'
mittee of the Associated Industries ol Maaiho
setts has made a report in which It goes on rec
erd s finding that (lis project is both feasible
and desirable, anumlnf that a satMartory treaty
can be negotiated to provide lor cooperation c
the I'nited States and Canada in she undertak
inf. and that there will be guaranties of equitable
distribution of electrical energy, created by the
Hamming ot the M. Iarenie river. The emu
mittee seta foith In detail its reavons (or be lie v
ing that the water ay is needed for the promo
tion ot me prosperity ol the west, that .New tng.
land would ahare in the beneficent results of that
prosperity, and that, in addition, the waterway
itielf would be likely to prove of benefit rather
than a detriment to the interest ot rew lutgland
seaport. Appeal is made for a broad and com
prehensive view of the project and reminder is
Kiven that rtw fcngland in the oast Has been
often accused of provincialism in its attitude to
ward projects advocated by other sections of the
country.
, One important particular in which the com
mittre of the Associated Industries has done
much to clearify the iue is found In its con
sideration of the probable use of the waterway if
it is constructed. Tbe committee finda that "if
the St. Lawrence project is carried through, it
will be entirely feasible for the present lake ves
sels, some of which carry as much as tons,
to proceed to tidewater at Montreal, Quebec or
lUlilax, where transfer of freight can be made
to ocean vessels." There follows the statement
that the committee "(eels that isr many years to
come lake vessels will bring the bulk ol the grain
of the west to tidewater, and that ocean vessel
will use the lakes only for package and high
grade freight, and for the grain needed as bal
last" Here it a description of the new route as
a means primarily for getting lake vessels to the
ocean. But in the dream wihch lias captivated
the middle west. Chicaao. Detroit. Cleveland and
Duluth are great seaports crowded with the ship
ping of all nations, the new waterway serving
principally as means of getting ocean vessels
into the lakes rather than getting lake vessels out
of them.
Hon. Charles E. Town send of Michigan,
called the father of the lakes-to-ocean undertak
ing". in an address before the Great Lakes-Tide
water congress in 1920, asked: "Has not the
hour now struck when these waUrs shall be deco
tated with the peaceful flags of all nations float
ing at the peaks of ocean ships engaged not alone
in provincial lake traffic but in the commerce of
the world? I want to live to see Detroit and the
other great cities of these lakes, in both coun
tries, become ocean oorts into and from which
will enter and clear the greatest ships of the
world." At the same congreas. Dr. R. S. Mc-
Elwee. formerlv director of the national bureau
of foreien and domestic commerce, maintained
that a majority of the world's cargo vessels could
enter the lakes, and pictured them loading grain
at Duluth and package freight at lower lake
ports. He clearly did not have in mind a water
way to be used chiefly by lake vessels that would
transfer cargo at Montreal, Quebec or Halifax.
The committee of the Associated industries,
composed of men living on the seaboard, has put
the case on more reasonable ground. It has thus
paved the way to a discussion of what may be
expected to occur if the waterway is constructed
rather than to consideration of the impossibilities
that the west has seen in its dreams. That is to
w1rnmet hoth bv the friends of the project
and by those who are still waiting to be shown.
that it would do what is claimed ior iu
Taxes What and Why?
The Hub is printing today the first of a series
of articles regarding taxation in Nebraska, writ
ten by Paul Greer of the editorial staff of The
Omaha Daily Bee. These articles are being re
printed because the first of the series evidences
a serious purpose to present the actual facts re
garding the assessment and levy of taxes for
public purposes, instead of making excuses or
softening the effects of public discussion.
k The writer observes very nearly at the outset
that the tendency among candidates for public
office, notably those whose province has to do
with creating tax budgets, is to speak in general
terms regarding "economy" in public adminis
tration and retrenchment in the disbursement of
monies derived from tax levies. This peculiarity
is particularly observable at the present time,
with one candidate for governor speaking wholly
in general terms and another going little farther
than to voice opposition to the administrative
code law.
The Bee is perfectly right in assuming that
candidates this year should not only be iu favor
of economy and retrenchment, but that they
should specify where and how they - propose to
retrench and economize. That is the really im
portant thing. That is what the taxpayers of this
state should know and what they have a right
to demand ,even though their inssitence on
definitene'ss should prove embarrassing to the
person who asks their suffrages.
"There is no cause for alarm in the mounting
tax bill and in the dissatisfaction with govern
ment which it arouses." This is Mr. Greer's
primary conclusion. "Taxes in Nebraska are
high." This is a corrolary assertion. It is true.
If The Bee will find out why it is true, and will
print the facts simply as facts without fear or
favor and for no partisan purpose, it will per
form thereby a great public service.
Unfortunately our metropolitan press has been
too prone to 'cut and cover to avoid factional
disturbance, to salve other things touching cer
tain interest's and uncertain political elements,
to conceal facts under the guise of half-truths,
and leave their readers either bewildered or de
ceived. Apparently The Bee is not setting out
to do this, at least its first article does not indi
cate that it has such a purpose. Following as it
has begun, it can supply the country press with
facts-that will constitute a truthful basis for fu
ture discussion and political action. Kearney

The men who treat diabetes are
disposed to feed a reasonable
amount of fat, since this furnishes
heat and energy, and they have
found they can do so provided It is
combined with some starch.
But fats disturb the stomach.

Churches as Job Finders
The reported union of ' all the Protestant
churches in the city to find jobs for men and
women in need of work is both Christian and
practical. A very large number of employers
are church attendants, and if, as reported, every
church is to become an employing agency for
those who apply to its pastor, a considerable
number of applicants could be put in direct touch
with men who have work to give.
The weak spot in the combination is that
many churches may not take a serious view of
their individual share in the scheme. The names
given out as members of the committee include
influential clergymen and laymen, but the real
question is how far they can impress the duty
of giving employment when possible upon the
men and women m their-pews.
. This organization should out emohasis unon
the Christian duty of makine and srivinsr work
according to the need and the ability to employ.
Oiice that spirit is awakened, the churches have
the necessary contracts to make the plan largely

Germs in the Washing.
R. L. F. writes: "Recently I have
cceived quite a few circulars from
laundry which claims to wash
every family bundle Individually in
separate washing machines; also
stating that the present wet wash
laundry that has been laundering
my clothes for the last six months
washes the clothes of six to 10 fam
ilies in one washing machine in the
same water and soap. -
Is there any danger or contagl
ous germs, if they wash the linens
or different families together?"
REPLY.
The New York City health depart
ment did considerable Investigation
on this point. They found that the
methods employed in ordinary laun
dries did not sterilize the clothing
and that, therefore, there is at least
theoretic danger of the spread of
contagion through laundries.
At the same time I know of no
proof that any epidemics have ever
been spread that way.
Get Rid ot the Sinus.
H. C. writes: "I have a small
growth in my nose called a polypus.
I have been going to a very reliable
doctor for over a year.
"A year ago last November he
operated and removed eight of them
on the left side of my nose. Isinco
then he ha been giving me what they
cafl antrum irrigations, but my nose
is stopped up and has been all sum
mer. "It seems that as fast as he takes
them out they grow back In."
. REPLY.
Polypus in the nose means that
the membranes are , continuously
bathed in pus. '
In your case, doubtless, a constant
flow of pus from a. sinus causes the
growth of polypi.
They will continue coming back
until the Etnus trouble la cured.
