Positions Ready
for the Soldier
Druggists Here
(By Unite 1 Press)
WASHINGTON. Returning soldiers
and sailors who were drug clerks or
pharmacists before theiy entered the
service, need have no fear about get
ting positions in those lines of work,
according to information coming into
the office of Col. Arthur Woods, assist
ant to the Secretary of War, in charge
of finding jobs for discharged service
men.
The American Pharmaceutical asso
ciation has formed an advisory commit
tee for the "employment and de-establishment
of soldier and sailor pharma
cists" and has become exceedingly ac
tive in locating discharged service meh
formerly in druggist work and in plac
ing them in good jobs. The committee
has written Col: Woods that it can find
work in every State in the Union and
that it wil lgladly aid any man who is
registered In one State and wishes to
locate in another. - It has listed also a
number of opportunities for burying
drug stores and partnership interests
in such stores. Men who have been in
the drug business but who have not
had pharmacy college educations will
be told about positions in cities where
they may obtain such training."
"The commttee ftas been most pains
taking in its work," said Col. Woods,
"and is now particularly anxious to see
that soldiers at embarkation ports and
demobilization camps receive informa
tion about drhg baain'es p opportunities "
Wireless va. Wire.

member of the house post office com
mittee, predicted "Yea,- If the progress
now. Being made in wireless communi
cation continues. Mr. Steenerson, as
Quoted In The Wireless Age, says:
"Radio communication is the coming
tldng. It la making such rapid strides
that before the end of the year the
average American will not be bother
ing much about the transmission of an
ordinary message over an ordinary
telegraph or telephone wire or as to
whether the; ordinary telephone or tel
egraph wtr la ownedor controlled by
government r prtrat Interests.''

Berlin The Pan-German Deutsche
Zietung prints the following across its
front page:
"German honor will be caftied to
its grave in the hall of mirrors, in
which the glorious year of $71 the
German empire was resurrected in all
its former splendor. Lest we forget!
In restless labor the German people
will again strive to attain that place
among the nations of the world to
which it is entitled. Then vengenance
of the disgrace of 1919."
The Tageblatt sarys: "The German
people reject the treaty which its del-
egates are signing, and it does not be- !
lieve for a single moment that it will
endure. Despite the fact that it is
written on parchment, it remains a 1
scrap of paper, because it is a mock- !
ery of all the laws of reason and
morals and the most disgraceful exhibit
in the museum of civilization."

WASHINGTON. Despite a multi
tude of rumors and reports as to what
President Wilson intends to do on an
nulling wartime prohibition so far as
it affects wines and beer after July 1
apparently there is no one in Washing
ton who knows the President's mind
and there is no aggreement among
administration officials as to the like
lihood of his action.
Those who hold that the President
will take no action declare, he is with
out power to do so until the linal termi
nation of the state of war. They saiy
his recommendation to the extraordi
nary session of Congress' for repeal of
the prohibition statute in part was
based on an opinion from the attorney-general's
office that Congress, by
the phraseology of the legislation,
had shorn him of the power to take ac
tion at this time.
