WHEN THEY COME HOME.

It was only a few days ago that Senator Smith introduced a bill to provide for the vocational training of the disabled men who must begin before long to return from the front in considerable numbers. Talk about the nation's duty in this regard began a year ago, but it Is doubtful if th® country understands the magnitude of the task even now.

Basing his figures upon the experience of Canada, a writer in the New York Sun estimates that if an army of 5,000,000 men is sent to France there will be 150,000 disabled men needing vocational teaching, as a result, and 6.000 qualified t.aai'hers must be provided.

Since teaching of that sort Is almost an Onthought-of thing In this country, the greater paht of the 6,000 teachers must be trained before they can become useful, and they will need to be exceptional men. for thev will

have an exceptionally difficult class of pupils to handle. That this work must be undertaken and liberally supported is beyond dispute, whether on« looks at the question as a matter of national policy or one of justice to the men.

Pensions or other forms of public support for disabled soldiers are universally approved, but the biggest pension that was ever granted will not compensate a normal man for the loss of self-reliance.

"BRIGADED WITH."

Readers* of the Tribune doubtless have wondered what the term "brigacleitl with" means used in connection with ^he American army in France.

The Americans are not fighting as an "American army" or as an "American unit." They are, instead, brigaded with French units, so that the army in which they are serving is neither French nor American but indeed "Franco-American." It would have have pleased American pride to have a fine solid American array dash into the struggle against the Huns, and with the Americans already in France such an Arrangement would have been possible. But it would not have made for the greatest efficiency. The Americans can. fight as bravely as French or British, but their effectiveness 1s enhanced by their close association with soldiers who know the tricks of the boche and who have learned much in the school of experience.

The arrangement, of course, is only temporary. When something like America's full strength is in the field there will be an American army, just as there is a French and a British and a Belgian army. For the present America's soldiers and Americans at home may. well be satisfied that efficiency rather than national pride Is dictating military arrangements in France.

From the beginning of American belligerency this nation has insisted on the necessity *f complete co-operation. The American aim has been to establish for rtll the allies a single aim instead of a group of similar aims, and to this end the United States has ur-

COMMISSIONS FOR NURSES.

Maybe it is because Canada has been famed as the home of good nuraes. Anyway, before the outbreak of the world war America depended rather largely upon capable Canadian girls to attend 10 its sick room ministrations. When the call came from across the seas, another army, not So spectacular as th6 "Princess Pat" soldiers nor In anyway claiming the spotlight, sailed, too. These were the nurses. So valiant are their service's that they have been given recognition ranking in importance with the officers of the army.

The standards are very high, aj8,xof course, they should be. Only fully trained, registered nurses may go out with the Canadian army, but these go with the rank of first lieutenant. Only fully trained registered nurses may go out with the American army, but. while they are under military jurisdiction, their rank is determined by the Red Cross exclusively. As a result they are often handicapped for lack of proper military authority.

Just why this distinction between Canadian and American nurses is permitted to remain is not clear. The present movement on foot to bestow commissions upon American nurses, if successful, will do much to recruit the much needed nurses for our army.

A man who had gone through a severe training, one which would rightfully entitle him to an officer's commission, would raise merry tain if he had to continue in the service, earn ing 4 lieutenant's duties and receive no ftiore recognition than a private. And lie would be quite justified in his protests. This business of permitting the vyar nurses to have military rank is not an experiment. Fortunately for us, our, allies have smoothed.the way for" .OS in many respects.

CHOSING OUR LEADERS.

Withifii Sfevitt* weeks, in different parts vf the country, the work will begin of making nominations for a new house of representatives, and it will continue through the summer, and early fall.

tiOn'S lawmakers, problems that we cannot.even foresee, is it either sensible or patriotic to nominate and elect the members of the next congress in the happy-go-lucky, oh-what's-the-dlfference way in which from time immemorial we have elected their predecessors?

This time, if never before and never again, it Is the duty of American citizens to se® that men are nominated and elected who are not insignificant nobodies. This next congress should have in its membership men of power and strength, fit to cope with the great tasks that it will have to shoulder. The men who are to be elected this time will have a share either in the saving of liberty from destruction or in the remaking of the world after it has been saved.

The work of naming candidates for congress ^'hci shall -not only be of proved patriotism but of strength and standing should begin immediately throughout the country.

This is a thing calling not for pious aspiration, but for organization and work, and the work will have to be carried on until all the primaries have been held-and then continued to election day. There should be no question of partisanship.' Where a capable and patriotic republican is nominated against an insignificant and unmeaning democrat, the democratic voters should vote for the republican, and the republican voters should act in a similar way where the situation is reversed. Where one of the candidates is of doubtful loyalty, or subordinates his loyalty to other things, there should be a nonpartisan coalition against him. It would be idle to hope that an entire congress of marked ability can be chosen, but. enough can be to make sure that the destinies of this nation in its great crisis should not be intrusted to the mercies of men of merely average intelligence. This is a great and patriotic duty resting on the people of the nation.
