count that is, the American plan. Under the American proposal England -would be able to collect reparation from Germany only to the oount. of damage caused by her airplane and Zeppelin raidi in English territory, the destruction of merchant shipping, and the like. The bills of the United States an-i British coloniel would be for losses inflicted on them through the .submarine warfare on merchant shipping. The chief creditors under the American scheme would be Belgium, Serbia and RoumanU, the countries which suffered the bulk of criminal damage.

ARMY TRAINING IN SCHOOLS. A man -who is in close touch with college activities.

jsajs the Springfield Republican, and who has been visitI ing the New England colleges, comes back to report that ! the army training corps is seriously affecting the edujcational progress of the country. He thinks the collepen j .should at once resume the;r normal activities "and ' minimize the effects of the interruption and disorgnnUa- ; tion caused by the temporary military regime.

IGNORING LAKE COUNTY. If the I'nited States Government closes up the e-tnployment offices for returning soldiers in Fast Chicago. Hammond and Gary and keep them open in South. Fend, Fort W'ajne, Evansville, Lafayette and Indif.n apolis it will be a shame. If there is any section of the count ry 'that deserves federal employment bureau it ia Lake County. More soldiers and sailors were sent to the war from thi

county than from any other county in the state, except 1

possibly Marion, and are none to sure about Marion. This was the greatest center for volunteer recruiting in ratio to the population than any place in the whole country and the government surely cannot afford to ignore Lake County. Every one of the Lake County bureaus has done good and faithful work and they, as a

secure a home.

The city council has the power to make a tax levy to purchase ground and construct a "memorial building for the soldiers. The building should have, an auditorium sufficiently lar.re to accommodate commercial exhibit.iocs. conventions, mass meetings and cif.c entertainment. The auditorium -would also be an armory, thus killing the two birds with the proverbial stone. A gymnasium, jest room, reading room, smoking room and mess hall would not be too great an eipenee. The request of the soldiers and sailors is to reasonable that remonstrators would be placed in a bad light. The eoldiera do not ask that the building and its privileges bo exclusively theirs. They want to take in veterans of every war as charter members and civilian young me n as associate members. It is to b hoped that representative professional,

matter of fact, have barely started. If would probably ' business and labor men ilt attend the meeting next be impossible because or the failure of Congress to j week called by the soldiers and sailors for the purpose make an appropriation for carrying on the work to keep J of testing public sentiment.

th three offices going, hut on of them should certainly !

be at the disposal of returning soldiers. These boys will have a noble idea of government solicitude for them upon their return when there are no jobs for them and no place to go where they can get in touch with a job. unless they walk the streets of South Bend or some other city in search of a government agency. The chambers of commerce and commercial clubs of Lake County should take steps to correct this negligence at the earliest opportunity. Lake County must have an employment bureau. Let it be centered at East Chicago. hicb is easy of access from both Gary and Hammond

HOW SHALL GERMANY PAY? Three theories have developed at the Peace Conferenceconcerning hat the principle of war reparation should be and they are respectively American. British nd French. The American theory is that reparation to he demanded from Germany should cover only such damage as was done by her in deliberate and criminal destruction Jn violation of the laws of war and of nations. Under this heading would come such barbaric acts as tb ruthless destruction of cathedrals, unnecessary pflage of farms and houses, etc., etc. The British view is that, since in civil law all dajnage must be paid by ihe aggressor, Germany should be eompelled to pay, not. only such costs as America would exact. but.also all the expenses contracted by the Allies in their conduct of the war including the expenses involved in raising, equipping, transporting and maintaining their armies. The French view is that reparation should include a!l that England demand.', but the French make the tipnilation that, there should be a sequence of payment, hat Is. that Germany and Austria should pay first th-? ttl demanded in the American scheme for destruction In violation of international law, and pay the other billthe bill England would demand later, as the state, ef her finances would allow. It !s claimed that there is no great difference between the, French and the American views when we take into consideration the fact that Germany may be unable t. io more than pay ttlP phn pn fir5t

ONE WAY OUT OF IT. If the directors give you the "double O" and say you'll never bf an Annette Kellerman; if you've passed the milestone -hat makes it. impossible for you to make Mary Pickford jealous; if you're built too much on the

I bungalow style ever to give Theda Ilara a run for her j contract: if all these things and several more Jnd be

tween you and movie fame, there s a way out. liuy your own company, elect yourself president, build a studio, hire a press agent and go to it. That's the advice of Mrs. Grctchen Wood (Countess StoeteH wealthy Denver widow, and first woman movie magnate of the Rocky Mountains. Mrs. Wood admits that her craving to cavort before a camera prompted the organization of her company and the building of the biggest studio between New York and Los Angele.

A CHANGE. On January 27, 1915, Preident Wikon sent to Kaiser Wilbelm a, telegram of congratulations, and the Secretary of State, though fully cognizant of the atrocious crimes Germany was committing in America, called upon the German Ambassador. On January 27. 1919. President Wilson and Secretary Lansing were in Europe discussing with the representatives of other countries what punishment should be mefed out to the nation of criminals whose kaiser had cowardly sought tafety in Holland. What a hollow mockery of diplomacy was the cable of congratulations from the President of America to the emperor of Germany and the call of our Secretary of State upon the German ambassador, exclaim the Manufacturers' Record. May the world be saved frorq any such hollow diplomacy at the peace table, and may the open diplomacy so called be a diplomacy of square, straigh'out. unequivocal denunciation of crime, that no diplomatic courtesy may ever again place this nation in a position of official congratulations of birthdays to men who were known to be the blackest criminals in human history. KATHER1NE P.res hkovsky, the 'little grand mother of the Russian revolution," must, be surprised sometimes at the strength of her grandchild.
