M.airi Omaha 'i Passenger Station. "L'niou depots arc luxuries" replied Judge Lovrtt when asked what chance there i (or Omaha gelling a new station toon. Thit, prob ably, meant that the judge it not giving the matter any pec itl thought at the present time. The (act that Ktniat City, St. Paul. Denver Min ncapolit, Portland, Lot Angelei, all have tub ttantial putenger stations, fitted to care (or the traffic that patstt through them, thould have no weight in determining Omaha't need. But those cities have been provided by the railroad centering there, among which it the Union Pa cific, with commensurate (acilitiet (or taking cart of the traveling public, while this city it forced to get along with inadequate tnd out-of-date ac commodations. A union depot it not altogether a luxury; it it a necessity, md the traveling public hat a right to proper accommodations at a station, jutt at it hat on trains. The Union Pacific installed an extra-fare train to run between Omaha and the Pacific coatt, and nothing wat taid about its being a luxury, except at to advertise itt at traction!, for which the added fee wit extracted from the patron. This, however, is aside from the point. Omaha wantt a new union putenger ttatlon, Such hit been promised the city for many yean. Railroadi centering here are prosperous, not averse to providing properly to take care of their butinets, yet all are depending on the Union Pa cific, except the Burlington alone. At tenants of the Union Pacific, the Northwestern on an alliance batia; the Rock Island and Milwaukee on leases that thirty yeara ago were drawn for 999 yeara and which were held by the federal coorti to be good, and the others admitted on equal terrni, they expect the landlord to provide premises on which they can do butinest. That is why the union pattenger station in Omaha is peculiarly a problem for the Union Pacific't ini tiative. If it is answered, and it should be, it will come from Judge Lovett at head of the sys tem. Omaha is not voicelett. Opportunity may be afforded to give some expression to the thought that here a union passenger station, capable of raring for the city't needs, it considered a neces sity, however much of a luxury a union depot may be eltewhere. City Concert Club's Program. The City Concert club has been functioning for more than a year, and with considerable suc cess. It has prepared and presented a number of popular musical entertainments, at which the attendants have had much genuine pleasure. Those who are concerned in its promotion are earnest in their fealty to the ctuie of music, and those who have taken part in the various concerts set far given are Omaha musicians exclusively, not all of them professionals, but all devoted to the art and so willing to make sacrifices that it may be furthered. Now the club has in mind a "drive" for memberships, and later in the month expects to make an earnest attempt to increase its roster and its exchequer, at the same time. It has nothing to tell, save the opportunity to ad vance the culture of the community by assisting in the work that hat to far been carried on un der difficulties that only its active membert are fully aware of. One of the great items on the program is the formation of a municipal band, which will play at the parks during the summer. An item in the city budget provides for part of the expense to be so incurred, and the rest of the money will be raised in some fashion. The most important object, however, is to place the club on such a footing that it may continue its self-appointed tstk of furnishing concert programs free at the Municipal auditorium. In other words, the members of the City Concert club are giving their services simply because they feel the urge to do something to extend the cultural life of the community. In this they deserve encouragement Norrii on Muscle Shoals. Returning from a trip of inspection to the site of the Muscle Shells project. Senator Norris expresses himself at opposed to the Henry Ford proposal to lease the plant from the government. In lieu of this, the senator records himself as fa vorable to the government's completion of the dam. This may fairly forecast the report the senate's committee on agricultural affairs will make when the time comet to take action on the Ford contract, Senator Norris is not averse to the use of the plant for the production of fertiliser, or for suth other purposes as it may serve. He finds, however, that the Ford offer is deeply involved with the Black Warrior river hydro-electric proj ect, in part ot which General Goethalt is con cerned, aad that to unscramble the two is prac tittBlly impossible as matters now stand. Funda mental changes must be made in the Ford offer before it wfll have the support of the senator, who beheves the public interest will better be preserved by the. government Retaining control 'Xtt the great plant, for the time at least. He ees not expect that the public will ever be iiiajiliiii ii lor the huge sum of money that has beast expended down these; in fact.

The departure of Ambassador Hoagbtoa to lake up bit post at Berlin asay later reauire that some of the demoertttc argan grinders change tbe tune they have been playing. Ever since the senate rejected Ike treaty of Versailles, be cause of Ike League of Nations feature, these inconsolable brethrca have lamented the fart that the United States would be coeapcued la make a sepsrsle peace with Germany. Distressed over this, they have been even more dejected by the apparent Indifference ot the president, who has to far declined to share their forebodings. Steadily Mr. Harding has pursued the even tenor of hit progrtm, peace between tbe nations has been declared, ambsssadors have been select ed, end now it will not be a great while until the relations between the two nations will be on n basis of amity, if not of entire accord. Matters that arc open between the governments at Wash ington and Bertin will be taken up through the proper channel, and negotiations will be between the republics of the United Stales and Germany, without intervention ol any other power. In few er wordt, our butinest will be carried on direct, without oversight of s supreme council of nations. Probably this it why the democratt are so dolorous whenever they look st Germsny; if they thould turn their cyet eltewhere, even for a moment, we commend to them these words from Ambassador Houghton, at he wat sailing: I do not believe in the moral or spiritual or even the economic value of hate. Hate tervet no useful purpose. It it far more danger out to thote who hate than to those who are hated. It leads only to confutionanddettruction. Flat Dwellers and Babies. A Chicsgo landlord is reported as breaking whst has hitherto been looked upon as sn immu table rule of apartment house construction. He it not only providing sccommodsons for bsbies in his new building, but actually offers a catb premium for each visit the ttork pays. Some day other landlords may come to realize the wis dom of this. Life in an apsrtmcnt house is sub ject to certain restrictive regulstlons, designed to secure the comfort end convenience of all. Chief of objections to bsbies it that they disturb those who live nesrby. In the enforced intimacy of the modern tenement this is accentuated, but it may be borne. No early music is sweeter than the gurgle and gooing of a contented infant; no cry arouses more apprehensive sympathy than does the appeal or protest set up by the little fellow. It may be colic, it may be for some other reason, but it does not require any unusual strength of soul to bear a little while with the sufferer, nor is anyone entitled to a citation or a wound stripe for having sustsined the experi ence. And babies are essential. . One of the Omaha judges the other day advised that young married couples who really want to be happy sat about having babies. His reasons are sound, so is that of the Chicsgo landlord. If it were not for babies but, whst's the use of purtuing that, thought? The world can not get along without babies, although it might do without cither landlords or apartment houset. ssassaasaaaaeaaB Future of the Buggy. ' A story telegraphed from Oregon intrudes on the placid mind. Up there, for tome reason not stated, a customer applied at an implement depot for a buggy. The state was sesrehed, and finally a new buggy was found, last of its kind in Oregon, and the once simple wsnt was supplied. Con trsst this with the trainloads of buggies thst were coming into the west less than a score of years ago. That will give you some idea of the march of the automobile. A "flivver" represents little more in its first cost than did a good buggy with a team to haul it, while its range of action is many times extended. Returns gathered by a recent survey made by a group of automobile makers shows that among the fanners of the central west the auto is used 78.4 per cent for business, while in some other lines its business use rises to above 90 per cent. This answers the question as to whether the machine is exclusively tor pleasure. Perhaps it points the future for the buggy. Now and again we see one on the .streets, a holdo-over, however, and not a new one. The automobile has tsken its place, and it will not be a long time until the buggy is as dead as the diplodocus. The artist and the author who pulled off a hare knuckle duel the other day are being called childish. Certainly they are not good business men, or they would hsve sold tickets to the affair. Bandits continue to give zest to life in large cities, but one of these days the public is going to tire of the presence of these playful chaps, and clean house for fair. America's right to be paid for helping keep the watch oavthe Rhine is admitted. Germany may come on with the gold right away. Mislaid husbsnds are causing considerable trouble in the world at the moment. Some better way for tagging them must be found. Chairman Edmisten may be losing his eye sight, but his foresight as to politics is still good. He is opposed to fusion. One way to end banditry would be to get a few bandits where they would have to behave themselves. Policemen who prefer night work are not freaks; they want the days to chore around home in. Maybe the man who left the brick out of his bid would have put them in the sewer. Cleanup week ought to carry with it something of an inclination to stay clean. With the drys and the wets lined up again, what is a mere neutral to do? Burglars also favor the night shift. April's here; get out the plow. Georgia, for Instance? Nothing serves so well as a treaty discussion lo demonstrate what pinheada tome ttatet tend to the United State senate. Indkuuoolis Star. Backing Up The Bet Hew el State least ta Antclee aa Taxation, Bwt Ceanty Herald (Tcaamab): The Omaha Bte U dotna a weM of good by publishing the ankles of Paul Greer on taaatlo m Nsbmka. They are the most explicit and edifying on the caeee of high taxes of snythiag ever published mi tae Mate. Those articles should be read and considered by every taxpayer in Nebraska They are t ot pout icai. and reason from cause to effect. It is refreshing to tee a great daily like The Omaha Bee devote Its best talent and space for tbe beueat of all the people in the tiaie without injecting political partisan buncomb, at it done by other daily papers in Nebraska. Chadron Journal: We are much interested in the articles of Haul Greer in The Omaha Bee on taxation in Nebraska. In hit article Monday he ditcuttee the ttate university. Several tunes tioai are nude at to what might and might not be done. We notice he does not mention the fact that the university doet not charge tuition to students coming from outside the state. We believe the university thould charge tuition to nonresidents. Nebreskant thould not be taxed to educate students from Kansas. South Dakota and other ttatet. Osceola Record: The Omaha Bee in running a aerie t of very timely articles on the subject of taxation and in view of the fact that each per son t tax it a very vital matter at Ihit time, we think that close attention will be given to all in formation which the public finds it possible to get. Of the subjects so far discussed by the spe cial writer, Mr. Greer, who is making an inves tigation in a large number of Nebraska counties and thote article! are being published in The Bee, the following paragraph should appeal with par ticular force to the average taxpayer. 'The most promising held for economy is in the governments nearest the citizen. Not only are the amounts of money iuvolved greater, but the smaller communities naturally would be thought more directly subject to local sen timent." In the opinion of the Record there are two very vital points discussed briefly in the above paragraph. First, that the mott promiting chance lor economy lies in that part of government nearett home and that is the school district and the municipality. The Record hat frequently made the point that the heavier part of the taxet goet to thote activitiet nearer home and that when we complain of high taxes, a very careful scrutiny thould be given to the different activi tiet into which the tax dollar it divided. The tecond point raited in the article pub lished in the Bee, it the proposition that in smaller communities it is generally supposed that the taxing power is more nearly in the hands of the people direct and that they are exercising more care and vigilance in the exercising ot the tame. I he tact it that sucn does not seem to oe the case and in a very large number of instances, it trantpiret that in the smaller communities, the people nave been the worst fooled and remained the worst fooled until the bill for taxet com menced to roll in and then when they sit up and take notice, they find that for tome reason or other the taxes have gotten clear out of their idea of what the taxes should be. Nebraska Citv Prest: The Omaha Bee has printed a column of "cures" for high taxes. They range from the instant discharge of all public officials to the abandonment of the federal aid project and the immediate destruction of a $10, 000,000 capitol building project. The true reme dy, however, lies in the hands of the people the people who are doing most of the complain ing, holding the mass meetings of indignations and wondering why something isn't done. The people pay high taxes because they want them. They insist upon calling luxuries necessities and ss long as they have that mental attitude they'll pay high taxes. Good roadt in Nebraska are costing millions of dollars, but they're worth it. caucailOu is costing millions ui uuiui a, uui u worth it. Good uovernment costs money as well as eternal vigilance, but it's worth it. Pure food tnd pure drugs they sre expensive but aren't thev worth it? Go ahead and reduce the tax bill -rand spend it somewhere else, getting less for your money. ' Fillmore Chronicle: The special articles on taxation now beins written by Paul Greer for The Omaha Bee are of unusual merit and are worthy the thoughtful attention of all Nebraska citizens who pay taxes. The facts are stated clearly and accurately, in a manner free from prejudice. When he says that .42 of each tax dollar in 1921 was used for school purposes, he oroceedt to Drove it fairly and gives plainly the reasont why thit is true and must follow under existing conditions. The Bee is serving the public well in the Greer letters, and all who read them thoaghttuity win apreciate mat net. Grand Island Independent: The Bee has been assembling the ideat of the newspapers of various cities in the ttate on the question of the best methodi to obtain tax reform. A study of these latter reveals, in the first place, a general state wide and an emphatic demand for a reduction in taxes, and throughout the expression irom at least 15 different localities there runs the general idea that the public demands immediate action in tax reduction and not tne awaiting ot anotner legislative assembly for the institution of amend ed revenue laws. There also runs a distinct trend that this can and should be done at once in local governmental affairs cities and schools, and the ratter are mentioned more formidable than the former, not without logic since it is in the maintenance of our school systems that there has been the greatest increase in expenses in the last 10 years. Friend Telegraph: In his writings on taxation in The Omaha Bee, Paul Greer says that "high taxes are caused by negligence, and the people are uninformed on social and economic questions. The Omaha Bee has adoot- A . .,AM tnrthnit nf feelinr the oublic pulse on certain important questions that are of vital interest to tne peopie in general, x ne i sends a query by telegraph to many of the edi- Ar. t,rncrhnii Nrhra1ra. in which it asks for IVJl 0 ,11.

Th American Automobile association has in stituted a prize word contest which is an improve ment on the' ordinary brand of charade and missing-letter puzzle. It seeks a term of combined ridicule and opprobrium to apply to reckless mo torists and offers the munificent reward of $25 for the verbal invention. Would not the gift of n completely equipped thvver oe more adequate for an etymological feat of the kind? A term of this nature, a word that should be a hissing and a reproach to designate the rowdy in the car, is sadly needed in the vocabulary of the orderly automobilist. It ought to nave come Into being long ago and from that prolific source of such coinages, the slang of the street. That it hat not so far orieinated spontaneously dis courages the probability that it can be made to order. When it is invented, the inventor is more likely to be a garage mechanic than a college don. But let the hunt m this good cause go on. oas itself is a manufactured word, and anything is possible in word-making. "Road hog" partially embodies the tdea. It will have to be a stinging term of reproach to penetrate the thick hide of the offender and do what neither law nor moral suasion nor respect for the rights of others can do. A word indeed capable of shaming the reck lett motoritt would be a triumph of etymology. Perhaps some conspicuous violator of the decen cies of motoring ma yet supply it from his own name, after the manner of Burke and Boycott New York World. How to Keep Well a est w. a. gvaitg The Bm.

In a rctent convention of medlenl mn, Burteon Oensrel Ireland re Ported that array medic! men had en having some promUlne result wim struma and vaccinae in the ei irui oi pneumonia. He warned tha nhdriai heard him against Utilng thtlr hopes mw in, oviivr or luavmant ,i Idersbl experience would be neeee eery before Anal judgment can be It will be retailed that the army haa never taken the reactionary at. tltude on this aueatlon that um. omrra nave assumed. Before the great influent wave of llt-'l had come and Bene, tbe rmy had had some experience which lookd like vaccine a sal nit pneu monia had considerable virtue. I refer lo experiments and clinical teets made by Cecil and Blake and by Ocll and Vaughan. As a reeult of such experience and also of the studies of Wright and Lester, they made provurion for the uae of vaeclnea by all those In the department who cared to use them, thouch uh waa not obligatory. Aa the Boston Medical and Burgl-c-al Journal ays. It was loaical to ex. pect the solution of tit pneumonia question to come from efforts to And vaccine and a serum. The clinical course of pneumonia la typical of dlaeaie curable by a serum. Rome day the knack of making It will be discovered. The disease has all the features of one that can be prevented by vac cinations. We have the right to look to the laboratory for a preven tive as well aa a cure. In spite of the discouragemente tnrown in tneir paths, the laboratory workers have been steadily occupy ing themselves with the search (or cure. Cecil and Blake report very satis factory results with the use of laboratory cure tried out on long series of laboratory animals, check ed by a elmllar series on which the serum was not used. The Chicago health department haa been trying an antigen for sever al yesri. Thoie in the wholesale de partment, who know most about It, have uted It themselves and given It to their friends as a cure for pneu monia and for coryx and bron chitis severe enough to be regarded as bordering on pneumonia. Nearly every clinician with close university or college laboratory con nection la making use of some kind of pneumonia antigen. Up at Roches ter, Rosenow continues his work along this line. I wss not surprised when I heard Dr. McCormack tell the health of ficers of Kentucky, and later those of Indiana, that his health depart ment waa supplying vaccine against pneumonia; that he was not certain that it was preventing so many colds, corysas, coughs, influensas, and pneumonias, but that he waa certain it waa lowering the death rate from pneumonia. I wss not surprised when I read Or. Ireland's guarded statements. Now is a good time to try It out. We are over the crest of the pneu monia season. Influent is waning. There is no emergency. We could pile up good deal of observation before the season has ended, and we can watch quietly, calmly, and un afraid, as we are apt to be when disaster suspends. Everybody's Well There. S. J. E. writes: "During your ob servations have you ever considered how the white people In Seattle and Los Angeles fare as to health, as compared with Rochester, N. T.. generally, and with special regard to colds, la grippe, and pneumonia?" REPLY. The death rate ia lower on the Pacific slope than It is elsewhere in the country. This holds true of sickness due to coryza, bonchltis and pneumonia, as well as to that due to other diseases. Varnishing the Fissures. J. N. writes: "For the benefit of H. E. S. and H.

The causes of ecicma are mani fold. Some cases are due to vicious practices connected with the occu pation. Others are due to faults in diet. Others are due to still other causes. The treatment should be based on tho cause. Merry-Go-Round. Civil War -Veteran writes: "What ia the cause of vertigo? What is the remedy?" REPLY.

Would vaii arivtaa arlvlrta It tit flrhnol Chil dren when there is no epidemic of It in town 7 is u in any way awn ful?" REPLY. The Schick test shows whether one is susceptible to diphtheria or not. It does not protect against the dis ease. It consists of a. simple injection into the skin of a very small dose of toxin. The reaction causes no fever, no sickness, and the local Inflammation is slight There is no danger attend ant on the Schick test. In case diphtheria develops In town, it is of great value to the school authorities and the health people to know which children are susceptible to the disease. It is of service to the parents also. Since Schick Ing the children of school or a town takes time. It Is bet ter to make the teats before the dls esse comes, and to have the results ready to act on when It first arrives.

To the Editor of The Bee: The editorial In this morning's Issue of The Bee on the Shrine of Bte. Anne de Beaupre at tracted my attention. The fine spir it of Christian faith and reverence In which It Is written deserve oom mendatioo. It Is not with any criti cal spirit that I respectfully call at tention to what seems an tuaoeuracy regarding the origin of the greatest shrine In the weetern world. It Is dedlceted to St. Anne the mother of the Bleaeed Virgin Mary, and not to a holy woman who waa promi nent In the early mission days of that region. The following account of the establishment nf the shrine la tsken from the Catholic encyclo pedia end is authentic 'Devotion to Saint Anne in Canada goes back to the beginning of new France, and was brought thither by the first settlers and early mission era The hardy pioneers soon began to Ull the soil of the Beaupre hill side: in tbe region thst now forms the pariah of Saints Anne de Beau pre tne rirst nouses aaie xrom me year 1SS0. Nor was It long before settlers built themselves chapel where they might meet for divine worship. One of their number, Sleur Btleene Lessard, offered to give the land required at the spot which the church authorlttee should find suit able. On the 11th of March the mis sionary, Father Vlgnal. cams to choose the elte and to bleee the foundations of the proposed chspel which by general consent wss to be dedicated to 8te. Anne. That very day tbe saint showed how fa vorably ahe viewed the undertak ing by healing Louis Oumont, an inhabitant of Beaupre, who suffered from rheumatism of the loins. Full of confidence In St. Anne, he came forward and placed three atones In the foundation of the building, whereupon he found himself sudden ly and completely cured of the ail ment. "The first authentic miracle wss ths precursor of countless other graces and favors of all kinds. For two centuries and half the great wonder-worker hea ceaaeleasly snd lavishly shown her kindness to all the suffers who from all parts of North America flock every year to Implore her aid. The old church was begun In 1S7I and used tor worship until 1876. when It was re placed by the present one. . . It ta 200 feet long and 100 feet wide in cluding the side chapels. Leo XIII raised it to the rank of minor ba silica May S. 18(7: and on May 1, 1889, It was solemnly consecrated by Cardinal Taschereau, rchblshop of Quebec. It baa been served by the redemptorlsts since 1S7S. On either side of the main doorway sre huge pyramids of crutches, walking sticks, bandages and other appli ances left behind by the cripples, lame and sick, who having prayed to St. Anne at her shrine, have gone home healed." The Important point In the above account, ao far as it pertains- to your editorial, is the identity of St. Anns, ho km yon all doubt was the mother of Christ's mother.

Not only that, I feel years younger," said Mrs. Mary A. Spencer. East St., life-long resident of Watertown, N. Y. "For over a year I was in a terri bly run-down condition and I was to nervous and restless that many a night I would hear the clock strike every hour. I was able to eat very little and lost strength right along, finally becoming so weak I could hardly walk from one room to the other. "On account ot my age I thought my declining health was natural, but Tanlac has proved that I was mis taken. I can do all my own house work now, I sleep all night long, wake up in the morning feeling re freshed and just feel fine all the day long. Tanlac can't be praised too much."
