Pursuit of the War Grafters.
Attorney General Patifsherty ha gone before
tongret with a request tlut he be given further
mean to pursue inquirict into war contract,
with an intention c( locating and protecutiug
my who looted the Treasury under guise of
aiding the war. lie hat appointed a special as-
eittant to take charge of the work, and tell con
i crest that at no lime ha the Department of Jut-
lice relaxed it diligence in the inquiry.
' The matter wai brought aharply to the fore
' iome day ago by Representative Woodruff of
Michigan, who made specific charges against cer
tain concern.', notably the Lincoln Motor com
: iany, and demanded that immediate action be
taken, threatening to institute impeachment pro
ceedings agaimt the attorney general unless
something is done. Representative Johnson of
South Dakota has joined with Mr. Woodruff, and
they have a resolution before the house, dealing
with the matter. Its consideration will develop
the probable attitude of congress.
Inquiries made in 1919 and 1920 established
the fact that buge sums of money were wasted
while the war was on, and give color to the
allegations that much of it was fraudulently ex
tracted from the Treasury. The attorney gen
eral says he has been energetic in his exanjina-.
tion into the cases; the congressmen named in
sist he has not What the public would like to
see is such actiou as will settle the question. If
fraud was committed, the fact should be de
veloped, and prosecution ought to be commenced
before the statute of limitations sets a bar to pro
tect the culprit.
' People have not forgotten the report made
by the Hughe commission that inquired, in
1917-18, into the air craft scandal, where a billion
dollar disappeared, and from which no result
was ever, obtained, save the dismissal from the
service of an officer the commissioner recom
mended for criminal prosecution. That was but
one of the sinkholes into which huge streams of
money were poured. Mr. Daughprty says the
case is out of the hands of demagogues; this will
be accepted a far as it goes, but every man who
wants to see the .matter ' cleared up is not a
demagogue, and the attorney general will do his
chief and his country a real service if he shows
the result of hi labor in court proceedings where
warranted, or in complete exculpation of those
now subject to suspicion if he has nothing to
make a case on.
In Behalf of the Farmer.
Forced liquidation of farm crops must be
avoided this fall. No better way of safeguarding
against repetition of previous mistakes exists
than by extending the life of the War Finance
corporation until next January, as is recom
mended by Eugene Meyer, jr., the managing di
rector of this great emergency institution. .The
mere assurance that banks can rediscount their
agricultural paper instead of having to press
farmers for payment will give stability to the
financial and marketing structure.
The necesiity for more orderly and gradual
marketing of farm products ha been impressed
upon Mr. Meyer by conditions as he found them
in his investigations. As a banker he knows that
most business is done on borrowed capital, and
as the head of the War Finance corporation he
takes the position that similar facilities must be
afforded the farmers. It is the rule in rriaufac
Juring and trade to do business largely on credit.
A manufacturer gives a promissory note for his
raw material and pays it off at maturity out of
4 the proceed from the sale of hit finished
product. .
From every angle public opinion is converg
ing on the necessity for just such a farm credit
system. The joint commission of agricultural in
quiry has made this recommendation :
That the farmer's requirements for credit
, corresponding to his turnover and having ma
turity of from six months to three year, which
w . will enable payment to be made from the pro
. eeeds of the farm, be met by an adaptation of
the present banking system of the country,
which will enable it to furnish credit of this
character.
. .There are now several bill before congress
designed to meet this need. One of them should
be passed, but until this is done, the need now
met by the War Finance corporation must not be
allowed to go unfilled.
. - ; Hunting With a Brass Band.
- One wonder just how much of sincerity
there may be in the ostentatious parade through
Omaha of a Jormer police detective, now con
nected with the prohibition enforcement service?
Friends of law and order, and they are prepon
derant in Omaha, want to see decency main
tained, bootlegging and the like suppressed, and
good order rule in every direction. These have
r.ot been greatly encouraged by a continual line
of published announcements that this, that or
the other enforcement officer was planning to
execute a raid, or engineer a general dry cleaning
of the shady places of the city, because such gar
tulity bespeak little discretion on the part of
those guilty, or else it indicates something that
is even more reprehensible, a contempt for the
intelligence of the force of evil. The Bee has
no suggestion to make as to methods to be em
ployed by the prohibition enforcement officers; it
is their province to go Out and get the offenders,
to suppress the traffic and to uphold the law, and
in all reasonable efforts to this end they will
have the support of the right-minded people of
Omaha. Ve flo, however, qasstioj the witdona

Primary in Indiana.
The result of the primary election in Indiana
will be of interest to Nebraska folks, became
there the campaign in a considerable degree re
semble the one in progress in thi Mate. That
it to ay, no itsue was clearly or diarpty defined,
and the nomination for United States senator on
the democratic ticket practically was concerted
to Governor RaUton. On the republican ticket
the choice wa between Albert J. Beveridge, for.
mer senator, and "bull mooscr," and Harry New,
sitting senator. While each of these carried on
a vigorous campaign for votes, it was noticeable
that neither emphasized any particular issue, for
or against the present administration. The
voters made their selection according to personal
preference, apparently, and the returns indicate
that Mr. Beveridge is the more popular of the
two. as he has won over New by something like
20,000 votes. As a gauge for testing the strength
of the Harding administration with the voters
the Indiana primary is not of great service, al
though it may be discounted by the democrats
who will assume that the defeat of Senator New
for renomination is a rebuke for President Har
ding, who has resolutely declined to take any
part in any of the local contests, warned as he
is by the experience of Woodrow Wilson, who
sought in 1918 to dictate to voters whom they
should choose for congress.
Keeping Their Record Clear.
On one count the democrats must be given
full credit they are persistent opponents of any
thing the administration undertakes to do.
Clamoring for lower taxes, the democrats op
posed every effort to amend the revenue law;
demanding economy in administration, they now
pretend to favor a soldier bonus bill on a basis
that will cost some billions of dollars. In this
they are consistently inconsistent. The repub
lican party, through its representatives in con
gress, is pledged to the passage of a soldiers'
bonus law, and such a measure is now well ad
vanced to its final form. It does not meet demo
cratic approval, however, because it does under
take to make some provision of justice to the
men who were in uniform during the war. When
you see a democrat quoting the plank from the
republican platform, dealing with the soldiers, ask
him to tell you what the democratic platform had
to say on the same subject. It will not take him
long to answer. The platform adopted at San
Francisco, and on which Mr. Cox was a candi
date, is silent as the tomb concerning the soldiers.
Let It Go at That.
The Bee does not wish to intrude its advice
on the "bejeweted" Peg$y Joyce Hopkins, or to
add any mite to the bitterness or poignancy of
her present grief. She expresses a wish that she
may go with Jack Dempsey to "some secluded
spot, far away from inquiring reporters and news
paper photographers, gossiping friends and love
lorn admirers." Speed the day, and the farther
away the spot the better. She may take Jack
along, and with him make film plays, or what
ever she may fancy, so long as it is done in ab
solute privacy and that a world that has other
matters to look after be not distracted by any
more of her foolishness. Of course, it would be
tough to part with Dempsey, but even the dep
rivation consequent upon to disappearance of
the undefeated champion" shipbuilder and prize
fighter might be sustaained if it were accom
panied by silence from Peggy.
In Wisconsin it is estimated that working
girls can clothe themselves for $182 a year. This
is lower than New York's estimate, $250. but
higher than Chicago, which is $117, and in Kan-
tas, where merchants claim $82 is sufficient. This
latter figure might buy a coat for some women,
while for others it would buy only a hat. The
question come quickly to mind; How profit
able would the average store be if no woman
spent more than this figure for her wardrobe? -
America is developing the tallest race, ac
cording to Dr. A. Hrdlicka of the Smithsonian in
stitution. That what may be called a real Ameri
can race is forming is indicated by his statement
that adult descendants of families that have been
in this country from three to eight generations
are taller than most other peoples. The figure
for men is S feet &'A inches, for women, S feet
4 inches.

eminence in any nation who deniet the fact of

him become a student once more and pursue a
freshman laboratory course in biology. Here, at
last, he will deal with things, not with words:
here he will be in no danger (at Disreali taid of
Gladstone) of being "intoxicated with the exuber
ance of his own verbosity."
A mediaeval scientist, William of Couches,

period which some would call the "Dark Abcs."
somewhere in one of hit work comments on
those unreasonable persons who will not listen
to any explanation of natural phenomena men
tioned in the Scripture. Themselves ignorant
of the processes and forces of nature, they would
like everybody else to remain equally ignorant
It is enough for them to saw "We don't know
how this it o, but we know that God can do it."
"You poor fools," retort William of Couches,
"God can make a cow out of a tree, but has he
ever done so?" .

Women and Words
According to one of the chief living author!
ties on linguistics, Prof. Jespersen of Copea
hagen, the speech of women can be differentiated
in several ways from that of men. Women, he
notes, are quicker to understand, quicker to utter
what is in their minds, and quicker to answer
than men; they confine themselves, as a rule, to
the more ordinary words in the language, and
avoid the recondite and the new; but at the
same time they are given to leaving their sen
tences unfinished and they are habitually voluble.
The causes of this difference between the speech
or the talk of the two sexes lie far back in the
occupational history of each; but the great social
changes are now in progress, which Prof. Jes
persen thinks may modify present contrasts. One
such change, among educated circles at least, is
perhaps already observable. Io the political field
Helen is no longer, as she used to be, on the
walls watching the combat. She has taken up
arms herself, and a consequence of her action
is that -conversation, as it was formerly under
stood, seems to be in danger of becoming a lost
art. Over the dinner table the discussion tend
to be more and more of things, policies,
wizardries, and less of human character and
human motives.
There was a time when our fathers did not
debate politics or the law with their women folk:
nevertheless they listened attentively when their
women folk chose to talk of the men and man
iters of the day. They understood that her de
tachment from the actual struggle gave woman a
position to which man could not aspire. ne
spoke, in a sense, for the future; in another
sense her praise or blame amounted to a re
estimation of character in terms of values more
endurinar than political exieency. It was this de
tachment of women which made small talk both
interesting and considerable. No man of any im-
oortance could escape its acid purse: blatancy
or bombast withered quickly under it. The place
hunter, the crafty fellow, the mere babbler soon
found their level among the dames whose quick
eyes discerned the man under the actors cloak.
Now if woman still, in her heart, discerns the
man she does not srive him away, for she is com
mitted to a party, a policy, which is his party,
his policy. -Argument has taken tne place ot epi
gram; the brilliance, the sparkle are gone. The
chanae may make it safer for pretenders than fn
the old days a rather ungallant conclusion, perr
haps, but one, it is to oe nopea, ot oniy tempor
ary validity. London Times. .
Tribute to Harding
Because President Harding' is not "a fussy
man" he made the Washington conference a suc
cess. ,So says the Spectator of London, Britain's
famed weekly, in the latest April issue to reach
Washington. In an editorial entitled "Honor to
Whom Honor Is Due," the pectator pays the
following handsome tribute to Mr. Harding:
"We feel that we must say something about
those concerned in negotiating that most potent
piece of successful diplomacy, the four-power
pact. In the first place, honor is due to the presi
dent of the United States. It is due to him not
merely because of his august rank or because he
is chief of the state which summoned the confer
ence and carried it through. It Is due to him be
cause he had the good faith and the singleness of
aim and heart to risk the possibility of his special
policy proving a fiasco; and at one time this risk
was very great.
"If President Harding had been a fussy man
or a timid man or a selfish man, or, what is per
haps worse, a" man of a jealous complexion, the
conference never could have been the success it
was. He set the tone of the conference, admit
tedly the best tone that ever prevailed at any ot
these international aratherinfts. No One could
possibly play a selfish, personal or national game
when he saw the way in which President Har
ding was behaving. He was content to let others
carry off the laurels so long as things went well;
consequently, other men felt ashamed to allow
personal considerations to prevail.
"A tone of honor and good faith flowed like a
clear and unpolluted stream through the confer
ence.

Barlly. By varying the methods on

But there is this to be aaid: The
Waeaerman test is not specific for
syphilis. It is most dependable
when it is juet about so sensitive,
If, on the other hand, it becomes
too sensitive it loses value, just as
it loses it when it is not sensitive
enough.
What is the final conclusion?
Shall we pay no attention to Was
serman reactions? Shall we quit
having them made? I find prac
tically no one in favor of that. With
all Us shortcomings, the Wasserman
test is a standard procedure and
should be continued.
The report by Kahn of the Mich
igan health department, after weigh
ing all the evidence, says: "A frank,
reliable Wasserman should be re
garded as a symptom of syphilis."
Stillans says: "The Wasserman
reaction is a symptom of syphlli
and must always be so regarded."
Dock says: "The reaction is not
only of great scientific Interest, but
also is of distinct clinical value."
As 1m. C. Taylor say, the trouble
arises from putting the Wasserman
test above all other symptoms and
forming opinions based on it alone.

Keep Out of Trouble.
Tork, Neb.. April 27. To the Ed
itor of The Bee: Senator Hitchcock
In his recent speech at Brokn Bow
charged up all the 111 of the human
race and the present depression to
the republican party, all being th
cause for not joining the league of
nations. Our senator lias overlooked
the fact that Europe always had a
league of nations. There was a triple
alliance; there was an entent alli
ance. What did Germany do with
the treaty of Belgium? What did
Italy do with her alliance with Ger
many? Had It not been for th un
natural alliance of France and
Russia the pages of history would
not have been stained with a world
war.
Eurooean ways, especially Euro
pean diplomacy, are too dangerous
and too strange for us to get into.
Just now it seems Russia is again
playing the leading role at Genoa.
Here Is a nation without a govern
ment, a people of primitive nature,
of beastly instincts, where murder is
only a pastime and robbery no crime.
Would our senator really advise to
form a league with such an outfit?
If the reDublican party will do no
more in the next three year, they
have redeemed themselves by stay
ing out of this Genoa meps.

-Bryan and Federal Reserve.
Omaha. May 1. To th Editor of
Th Bee: The great commoner i
refuting the' theory that man i the
descendant ot the ape. Mr. Bryan
pleads the cause of a reunited demo
cratic party. May I quote from his
Lincoln speech Saturday evening?
The federal reserve board deflated
the farmer and cut in two the value
of land and farm Droducts." "The
board caused radical changes in busi
ness, and in condition of the labor
ing man, yet only bankers are re
quired by law to be represented."
Mr." Bryan certainly relies on the ape
In man when he asks citizens to trust
the democratic party which enacted
the federal reserve act creating
this federal reserve board, em
powering it to cut In two the value
of land and farm products, causing
mental depression, self-destruction,
unemployment, bankruptcy, poverty
and hunger In midst of greatest plen-
tifulness. After thus indicting xne
democratic federal reserve system,
whose guilty board, hand-picked by
Mr. Wilson and his democratic sec
retary of the treasury, caused the
ruination of the United States, just
as Mr. Bryan admits, because there
Is no denial, when Mr. Bryan asks
the victim of the democratic legis
lation, that he admits ruined them,
to again trust the pirate he surely
relies on the ape instinct in humans
he appeals to. T. S. FEXLON.
