To make the number of returned citizens equal to the number of re turned soldiers ia the problem that is now before the federal board for vocational education. About 2,000,000 American soldiers have been returned to civil life. Two hundred thousand have been wounded, but many of these will soon be physically fit to take up their duties again, while it is estimated that at least ten per cent of them have handi caps which must be overcome. From the latest reports tuberculosis is responsible for 22 per cent of the disabilities incurred, wounds not necessitating amputation and miscel laneous wounds for 31 per cent, nerve diseases for 8.3 per cent and wounds requiring amputation 5 per cent. To make these 20,000 disabled sol diers the equal of 20,000 citizens con tributing economically and socially to their community life, is the duty dele gated to the federal board by the gov ernment. Four 'Hundred School Enrolled More than 100 different courses are already being given under the direction of the federal board, in al most 400 institutions of learning scattered throughout the country from Florida to the great Northwest. In the few months that have elapsed since the boys began their homeward journey, nearly 5,000 of these disabled soldiers, after confer ring with the federal board, have started life again; some placed by the board and others self placed; some in the old j(bs, others in new and bet ter ones. PREACHER QUITS MINISTRY TO LIVE A CHRISTIAN LIFE FIRST BATH SINCE BOY HOOD KILLED MAN Given his first bath since boyhood, Charles Nelson, of West Hammond, Ind., a junk dealer, died soon after he was washed. Doctors believe the shock killed him. Can a man be a "successful minis ter" of the gospel in these days and at the same time practice and preach the principles of human brotherhood as .proclaimed in the Sermon on the Mount?. . The Rev. I. Paul Taylor, minister of the Highland Park Congregational church, of Detroit, Mich., raises the question end answers it in the nega tive in his letter of resignation ana announcement of his intention to leave the ministry. ''"," The Rev. Taylor is a "Christian Socialist." During the years of his ministry in Detroit he has been un swerving in his proclamation of the Christian fundamentals. "I leave the church in order that I may live a less cramped and stifled life," the Rev. Taylor said.' "1 de sire to live a Christian life, and that is impossible for me to do and at the same time be a 'successful minis ter.' " TO VISIT UNITED STATES King Albert and Queen Elizabeth, Belgian rulers, accepted the invitation extended them by President' Wilson while he was there the other day, to visit the United States. The Belgian rulers probably will pay us a visit in September. At the same time that beer goes out the tworcent stamp comes back. But what's the use? Most of the fellows will be too dry to lick a postage stamp. MOB KILLS PRISONER DICKENS' INN TO BE SOLD IN ENGLAND The Great White hotel, one of the most famous of Dickens' inns, is to be sold at Ipswich, England. This is the inn mentioned in Pickwick papers. CONGRESS SAVING FUNDS Approximately $1,350,000,000 has been saved to the taxpayers of the United States by the. action of Con gress in cutting appropriation esti mates of the government depart ments. Of this amount $450,000,000 was cut by the House committee by reducing the United States army to 300,000 men. The War Department has asked for a personnel of 509,000. Another big saving was made on the navy bill on which $300,000,000 was cut from the estimates of Secre tary Daniels, and from which more may be cut before the bill gets through the Senate and the House. The railroad bill, from which $450, 000,000 was cut by the House, will go through at its present figure. It is estimated that before all the measures now before the Senate and the House have been handled the saving effected will amount to $1,500,000,000. This is taken to indicate that the program of economy will make itself felt in lower taxes during the next fiscal year. Frank Fokall, charged with the murder of Robere Bishop, was shot and killed by a mob at Bay Minnette, Ala., late Sunday while he was asleep in his cell at the Baldwin county jail. The mob overpowered the sheriff and several deputies, secured the keys, swarmed into the jail and made goon their escape in a few minutes. Seven bullets were fired into Fokall's body. FORMULATE POLICY ON U. S. MERCHANT MARINE for the - free and unlimited coinage of wives at a standard not even re stricted to the 16 to 1 basis?. The Mprmons are numerically weak, the difficulty of enforcing upon, them the generally accepted proposition that marriage means a home and not a swine style did not present insuper able difficulties, although it was not precisely an easy task at that. With difficulties, although it was not pre cisely an easy task at that. With both the Mormon and the Turk, polygamy is interwoven with religi ous convictions. The Mormons were as stubborn in opposition to inter ference with their religious beliefs as the Turks. The only difference is that the Mormons number only tens of thousands, whereas the Mohammed ans number hundreds of millions, and furthermore, most of these hundreds of millions would plunge into Holy War against us if we endeavored to force any large group of them to abandon their religious faith. It is an intricate, and, on its fact, an insoluble problem. But "may we not" suggest a possible way around (ft? Why not compromise? Why not make Herron the Turkish Manda tory? Herron's matrimonial views are broad and comprehensive. His poultry yard standard of morals might possibly be a little looser than the Turkish, but he would doubtless conform himself in theory and prac tice to the narrower Turkish matri monial prejudices, The fact that he is only a titular Reverend should, not identify him offensively a Christian. Indeed, if k came to that, he coula produce the record of his dismissal from the ministry, suppoted by the records of numerous Christian organ izations condemning the President for appointing such a man to office. It is hardly too much to say that Herron could bring strong testimonials in the form of officially expressed loathing for him and his views from most of the religious organizations in the United States. Neither in Herron's morals nor his religious principles, then, is there anything which should make him objectionable to the Turks. We unhesitatingly nominate the con structively Keverend Herron as Mandatory of the late Turkish em pire. PRIVATE BorD First class, mod- ern. Wide " Awake Farm.

C. - 4t Both the merchant marine and fisheries committee, of the House, and the committee of commerce, in the Senate are perfecting comprehen sive plans for the formulation, of a definite policy with regard to the future of the country's merchant marine. Enough food to feed the people of the liberated countries of Europe until their own farm crops have been harvested this fall, will be in transit by July 1, according to press dis patches from New York. This an nouncement has been made by the American relief administration through a representative who has just returned from Europe. BAKER FOR LARGE ARMY Senator Pomerene, Democrat, of Ohio, complains that the country has never had a statement of the ex penses of conducting the office of the director general of railroads. Well, then, why doesn't he urge an inves tigation? Why do Democrats so uni versally frown upon efforts to dis close the real facts of this adminis tration to the taxpayers of the coun try? "At "The Fighting Jioosevelts" A 7-REEI, 'PICTURE 1 Secretary of War Baker, appearing before the Senate military affairs committee, insisted that Congress make provision for a force of 509,000 men until a permanent military policy can be adopted. He declared that a force of 300,000 proposed in the an nual army appropriation bill, as pass ed by the House, is "inadequate.' General March, chief of staff, inform ed the Senators that failure to pro vide for a force of 509,000 would only mean requests for deficiency ap propriations later. While before the Senate committee Secretary Baker stated that in addi tion to the army of occupation in Ger many, the United States must main tain a large force on the-Mexican border and a substantial unit in France where the government has military supplies worth $1,600,000,- 000. , WILL BE.

(Harvey's Weekly.) We seem to have struck a snag in the matter of our taking mandatory charge of Turkey. It raises awkward alternatives. We must either recog nize polygamy as a national institu tion, or begin a Holy War and fight all Mohammedandom. u Either course .is unpleasant If we recognise polygamy in Turkey and. govern ourselves and the Turks accordingly, how about the iMor- Biana?': Are wa going to recognise under our government the right of Under and by virtue of the power of sale contained in a mortgage deed executed on June 15, 1917, by W.
