REWARD CLAIMS FOR WORLD WAR ► VETS ARE RIGHT Ex-Senator A. J. Beveridge Favors Compensating Soldiers. ARMISTICE DAY SPEECH GOSHEN, Ind., Nct. 11.—" If we made war on the theory of conscripting the services and wealth ot every citizen and had practiced that theory, there would be- no reason for reasonable pay. or any pay at all, for former service man." said Albert J. Beveridge In an Armistice day speech hare this afternoon before the American Legion. “But we do not go on tliat theory,” the former United States Senator pointed out. “If the Government required property it paid for it richly—too often more than it was worth. If labor was required it wan paid for at the highest rates in the history of tiie world. When the Government <.alled millions of young men to arms, to do the hardest and most dangerous service, they had to do as they were told and take what was given them.” "Adjusted compensation cannot honorably bo denied the soldiers ol our war with Germany,” Mr. Beveridge declared. ”It is neither just nor accurate to cal] this compensation a “bonus”; nor to brand it by any other name denoting | dole or charity. Reasons are given against the financial expediency of granting the demands of the service man; but the overwhelming argument in favor of adjusting their compensation is the sheer Jnstice of it. In my Memorial day speech to the legion at Alexandria last May I tried to point out this crowning consideration.

“If we had made war on the theory of conscripting the services and wealth of every citizen and had practiced that theory there would, of coarse, be no reason at all why our young men who were required by the Government to. serve in uniform should now, or at any time, receive reasonable pay, or any pay at all; since in that case everybody—labor, capitalist and soldier—would be on the same level of absolute and impartial equality. “The Government then would hare required men to give their labor without substantial compensation; to give their wealth without 4ubstantial compensation ; to give their property without substantial compensation, as well as to act as soldiers without substantial compensation. All would have been considered alike In their common effort In behalf of our common country; and the reward of all would have been notlitng more than that intangible but Ineffable reward with which patriotism glorifies the hearts of those who have done their i duty. “But this was not the theory upon which we acted. If the Government required property, it paid for that property and paid for It richly—often much mope than it was wort! -lanual labor, skilled and unskilled "eded, that labor was paid for a ghest rates ever known In the hie. . the world; bout when the called millions of yonng men to bear arms they Bould neither refuse nor make bargains—*they had to do as they were told and take what was given them. Is this a square deal? Is this equality? Is this Justice? Shall our enemies, foreign and domestic, be given eicuse to say that ours is the only the sordid patriotism of property? “If the Government ought to conscript soldiers to fight out it not also be conscript laborers to work and capital to pay? Why apply the principle of conscription to those who do the hardest tasks and 'render the most dangerous servcle and not apply conscription to other classes? All are equally Interested in tha defense of the country. All are equally benefited by victory. All would equally sufTer from defeat. Why should not all equally receive the same treatment upon the same principle? "Other countries have done better by their soldiers then we have. Our neighbor, Canada, numerically smaller and with only a fraction of our wealth, has put us to shame In this regard. All the nations that fought Germany have made generous provisions for their fighting men. Even Germany, broken, crushed, dismembered, utterly powerless, and on the brink of firanclal collapse. Is caring for her millions of disabled soldier*. “The neglect of our sick and wounded is another story and one of black disgrace. Had any one predicted, when these men were fighting for us overseas, that we would forget and neglect them when they came home such a prophet of onr ingratitude would have been mobbed. Indeed, any one would have been physically assaulted who, when our boys, were marching away, declared that upon their return we would deny them the adjusted compensation they are now asking. On the contrary; "bad anybody then proposed that our soldiers should be given the amounts Involved, or any amounts whatever, snch a proposal would have been accepted unanimously and with mighty enthusiasm. “We all know that billions were being prodigally spent in material war preparations and we now know that hundreds of millions of this was needlessly spent; W e all knew that billions were being handed out by our Government to other nations, although It was not until the war was over that we learned the appalling magnitude of these loans; but to all this outlay we made no protest, and make none now. How then can we ref ust (lelnaild9 of those who offered or were ready to offer their lives for onr country when the total sum of this so-called bonus Is not half as great nations ? am ° nnt actually to other “It is true we have gotten ourselves into an Increditable financial mess- true that we are still ground by a svstera of taxation so crazy that it might have been the device of madmen; true that the wheels of American business and industry are clogged and almost stopped by war exactions; true that the direct and inevitable result of this slowing down and stoppage of business is that millions of workingmen are now idle; true that we have entered upon the gravest economic period of our history: true that it will require the ablest and most fearless statesmanship the country can command to guide the Nation safelv through the troubled seas around and ahead of us. 'Ut surely the ability of our public men is equal to the task of devising means, and the resource* of the country are equal to supplying means, of discharging that duty.” Ex-Senator Beveridge speaks tonight before legionnaires at Warsaw on the armament conference, and tomorrow night he will deliver an Americanisation speech at East Chicago. ® meetings.

EXPLORERS GO WELL PREPARED TO FAR NORTH Dehydrated Foodstuffs to Last Six Months Carried by MacMillan Expedition. NEW YORK. Nor. U.—When Cspt. Donald E. MacMillan and his six adventurous companions sailed down the Sheepecot River, Maine, a few days ago headed for Baffin Land and the uncharted regions of the frozen North they carried wltn them what will be the first fresh fruits and vegetables ever to penetrate to that barren land. The footatuffs, which included raatfberries and cabbages, both to be eaten raw; fresh spinach, green corn and new rhubarb, In the stalk, for rhnbarb pies, were packed simply in paper bags and cardboard boxes and were so compact that they will be sufficient to last six months. The food was in dehydrated form, by which chemical process of removing the water without destroying the cell walls a bushel reduoes to a pound or two, will keep Indefinitely in that form and yet may be restored to its original bulk, color and taste by a few hours soaking In water. ROAST BEEF HASH COMPLETE. j Not the least Interesting items on the : list of dehydrated foods carried on the i Arctic expedition was a quantity of roast beef hash, complete, which in its dehvdrafted form is a mass of dry, withered kernels. A little water will so restore it that It can be cooked Just as If entirely new. Enough dehydrated grass to last the dogs of the expedition for six months at the rate of two portions a week was incli-ded and a bunch of catnip for the ship’s cat. A small quantity of eggs and fish was also furnished. The foods were prepared at twentyfour hours’ notice by scientists and food experts who have been experimenting with the dehydration process as affecting every fruit and vegetable grown on the North American continent, and with meats, fish and eggs. NUTRITION 18 PRESERVED. Tha process, which takes from half an hour to four or five hours, according to the water content of the article, is claimed by scientists to be far superior to drying or canning since the volatile*, flavoring essences, colorings and nutrl five properties are preserved Intact. The great decrease in bulk under dehydration Is doe to the fact, little appreciated, that fresh foods average 90 per cent water and that in paying for such the consumer Is actually paying for water he does not want or need. The dehydration process Is one of the inventions sponsored by the Association of Scientists, Engineers, Inventqrs and Financiers, headed by Dr. Miller Reese Hutchison, former chief engineer to Thomas A. Edison. DOCTOR INVENTS NEW DEVICES. Dr. Hutchison is the inventor of the scousticon for the deaf, the Klaxon horn and several hundred other devices. Associated with him In his new enterprise are Hudson Maxim, Rear Admiral Samuel McGowan, paymaster general U. 8. Navy, retired; William M. Williams, former commissioner of Internal revenue and Sir Edgar Rees Jones, M. P., head of the Priorities Division of the British Ministry of Mnnitlons during the war and European director of the association. An invention will be considered by the psaoeiation only when It comes with the Indorsement of an engineer in good standing, but once accepted the Inventor trill be aided stop by step In the development of his idea and Its thorough testKiss Breaks Lease BUFFALO, Nov. 11.— When a loving landlord throws a kiss to hts tenant’s wife, the lease files out of the window. Such at least is the decision of a learned Buffalo Judge. Mri. Mary Kocsur went with her hatband to a fiat at 800 Sycamore street and signed a year's lease. When the landlord sought to sent the pact by throwing a kies to Mrs. Koczur her husband became angry, said he would not rent the property, and the court upheld him. AUSTRALIA PROSPEROUS.

FILMED SPIRITS TO BE SHOWN IN MOVIES, CLAIM Los Angeles Pastor Says Materialized Product Can Be Seen in Pictures. LOS ANGELES, Nov. 11.—Persons identified with the activities of Spiritualists in Southern California are authority for the claim that following long efforts and a considerable expense, motion pictures of materialized spirits hare been producod here for the last time. According to the Kov. Inez Wagner, pastor of the People’s Splrltualiat Church of Los Angeles; Mrs. Minnie Sayers, pastor of the Spiritualist Church of Revelation of Loa Angeles; H. Reading and Prof. D. D. Reese, a psychological Investigator, the modern pictures were successfully made at the home of J. E. Johnson. a Los Angeles medium of forty years’ experience. In a state;iint concerning the films the Rev. Inc ugner said: “Motion p ..re films of materialized spirits were made after seven months of tke hardest kind of work and eiertn separate tests at the home of Mr. Johnson. The photography was done by operators of a film concern located in Pasadena. “The films were produced in a room of ordluary size in daylight. Mr. John- | son, the medium, was seated outaide of a cabinet. The room was carefully sealed on all sides, and after each one of the teats the seals were carefully examined to see that they remained unbroken. “There were about sixty spirits materialized in the films. These Included spirits of men, women and children. Besides Europeans and Americans, there was a spirit of a Hindu and those of a few American Indiana. The visualized forma were shown in the films in most cases as rising upward from the flpor. SPIRITS RECOGNIZED. "The motion pictures were shown in the People’s Spiritualist Church and the Spiritualist Church of Revelation, and a number of Los Angeles persons recognized the figures shown on the screen as those In some Instances of friends or relatives who have passed on. Among the spirits materialized was that of a Miss Miller, a nurse, who formerly resided In Los Angeles and who died abroad during tho war. There was also a soldier lad from London, who, it appears, had been nursed at one time by Miss Miller. "The spirits gave In audible voices tbs time and place they passed away, and these were recorded by the photographers and flashed on the screen. In so far as was possible a careful checking was made of the actual time of the deaths of the people who these materialized spirits professed to be, and they were found to correspond with the claims of the voices beyond the veil. “Th films are being copied and one set of them will be sent to the London Psychlo Society, especially for tho perusal of Sir Oliver Lodge and othar British intellectual leaders Interested In materializations.” SILENT MOTIIER-IN-LAW. CHICAGO, Nov. 11.—“ It seems Incredible,” said a municipal conrt Judge when Sirs. Frederick Connett testified that she had not spoken to her son-in-law for two years, though she lived in the same hons* with him. Heads Engineers
