Evidence that returned soldiers, par ticularly those who saw service over seas, are going back Into civil pursuits more efficient and better fitted for their work is furnished by one of the largest employers of labor in the coun try, a firm which has requested that its name be not disclosed. Of more than six hundred returned soldiers who have been employed by this corporation 43 per cent have proved more efficient than they were before their military experience; 58 per cent are put down ns Just about the same ns before in efficiency and the remaining 5 per cent are rated as having less efficiency.

WIDE DIFFERENCE IN LIVES Something of a Moral in the Careers of John Burroughs and the Late Jay Gould. More than seventy years ago two hoys attended the village school of Hoxbury, among the Catskills, togeth er. They sat in adjoining seats. One wrote a composition for the other, and charged him 70 cents for the perform ance. The man who collected the cash for Ids writing was Jay Gould, who died at (lie age of fifty-six and left an estate valued at $70,000,000. The man who paid cash for the composition was John Burroughs, the famous naturalist and writer, Alio recently celebrated his eighty-second anniver sary at ids beautiful vine-clad cottage on the Hudson. Burroughs hasn’t been bending all ids efforts to getiing money, although he lias acquired a competence of tills world’s goods. He says he has taken real joy out of life. Nature appeals to him in a marvelous way, and he Jins passed Ids feelings on to the world in hie many hooks. “I’m just as spry as 1 ever was and haven’t an ache or pain,” he says. "It is all because I live the simple life.” Equally Distasteful.

NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS Peace Conference Devises Plan for Staling the Problem of the Adriatic. D’ANNUNZIO'S FIUME RAID Baltic States and Russian Bolshevists Talking Peace—President Wilson Explains Application of League Covenant to Shantung and Irish Questions. By EDWARD W. PICKARD. While D’Annunzio held possession of Flume after his spectacular raid on that disputed city, the peace confer ence in Paris got busy and announced its solution of the entire Adriatic problem. It Is a compromise plan de signed to satisfy both Italy and Jugo slavia. and it was cabled to America to he submitted to President Wilson. This compromise settlement provides that Finnic shall be a free state and that Its harbor shall be a free port; that the Jugo-Slavs shall have all of the Dalmatian mainland except the city of Zara, which shall be a free port, and most of the Dalmatian Islands; that Avlona and the surround ing territory shall he under Italian sovereignty, and that Italy shall re ceive a mandate for all of Albania ex cept the Epirus, in the extreme south, which shall go to Greece. Roth Italy and .Tugo-Slavla make concessions un der this plan, and It Is believed that it will enable Flume ultimately to be come a part of Italy—a consummation which the American peace delegation was able to prevent during the treaty negotiations. D'Annunzio’s seizure of Flume was decidedly embarrassing to the Ital ian government. To use force against him was plainly out of the question, for the sympathies of the nation were tvith him, despite the fact that lie and ais troops were technically mutineers. However, the government did take steps looking toward a blockade of Fl ume by land and sea in the expecta tion (lint the poet-soldier’s army would be soon starved into submission, and in this measure the Jugo-Slavs co-op erated by cutting off all supplies by land. D'Annunzio had about 10,000 regulars and four battalions of vol unteers under his command, and oc cupied a fortified line around the city. It was reported that he was prepared to raze Flume if lie could not hold out, and that in tills he was support ed by the citizens. Naturally, the Germans were watch ing this affair with great Interest, and the news that the allies had decided it was to lie handled by Italy alone was looked on by them ns significant, for some of them were contemplating the possibility of a similar raid on Danzig. They figured that if the ex pressed will of the allied peace con ference could be defied In one [dace, it might he defied in another. In Hungary Hip allies arp gradually bringing Hip situation around to Ihpir own way, for Hip Roumanians, it is announced, are withdrawing their troops and have promised to restore the materials they had confiscated. I‘rlme Minister Friedrich of Hungary, It Is expected, will quit, and a coali tion cabinet will be recognized by Hip allies. The representatives of the Baltic Hates are holding, or about to hold, conferences with the Russian holshe vlsts, with the prospect that peace be tween them will he arranged. Wheth er this Is with the tacit consent of the allied nations Is not clear. At any rate, the White Russians are desper ately fighting against such an outcome, for it would mean their destruction by the Reds. The Herman troops In the Baltic states, commanded by Gen eral von der Holtz, are Increasing In numbers and are very active. The Berlin government. In response to the demand of the peace conference that Uwsy he withdrawn, said they weie not under Herman control, but (his plea the conference refused to allow. The Russian soviet government asserts .hat, despite Its recent victories on the BRITAIN’S CRISIS IN TRADE Condition Is Serious, and Commercial Leaders Are Bending Every Ef fort to Speed up Production. London.—Confronted hv what Is de scribed ns perhaps the if rentes! Indus trial nnd trade crisis In the history of the country, the commercial lenders of fJrent Ilrltnln nre handing every effort So speed up production, soys the \rnericen Chamber of Commerce In THE MANITOWOC PILOT Baltic front, it desires pence and friendly relations with the new' states formed in that region. Of course it would then be able to turn most of Its attention to the East, where Admiral Kolchak Is reported to have had sev eral notable successes recently. Japan, according to report, lias been asked by the United States to pledge formally the return of Shantung to China, and to set a date for the resto ration. At the time of writing no re ply had been received from Tokyo, and the Japanese foreign office de nied that any such note had been re ceived from Washington. In state ments Issued in California, in reply to lists of questions asked him, President Wilson asserted that the League of Nations would have a powerful effect in forwarding the final restoration of Shantung to China, and that no other Instrumentality or action could he sub stituted which could bring about that result. In one of his San Francisco addresses he said the great powers had Japan’s promise to return Shan tung to China, and Intended to see that it wns fulfilled under the league. His coilengues at Versailles, he said, told him they meant under the league to inaugurate a new r policy toward China. Another subject taken up hy the president in his answers to questions and in his speeches was the Irish ques tion. Tills, ho asserted, eould prop erly he brought up In tin* council of the league tinder article XI, “which makes it the right of every member of the league to draw attention to any thlng.anywhere that is likely to dis turb tile peace of (lie world or Hie good understanding between nations, upon which the pence of the world de pends.” The covenant would not hind tlie United States to assist in putting down rebellion in any foreign coun try, he said, nor would It limit the power of this country to recognize the independence of any people who seek to secure freedom. He explained that Ireland wns not given a hearing at the pence conference because the confer ence had no Jurisdiction over ques tions of that sort that affected terri tories that did not belong to the de feated empires. The Irlsh-Amerlcnn opponents of the league were far from sntisfi(>d with this reply, and especially did they dis like what they termed the president’s ablguousness. They asked him to answer point-blank the question: “Are you In favor of self-determination for Ireland?’’ and requested a reply by September 25, when the Irish execu tive committee meets In New York. It does not seem possible that they ex pect a “yes-or-no” answer to such a question. Someone must have whispered a warning to Mr. Wilson concerning the resentment caused by his general at tacks on nil senators who do not favor ratification of the treaty as It stands, for last week his speeches were much more conciliatory, and he even had good words to say concerning the “mild reservatlonlsts.” But his ex pressed opinion of the Borah-.Tohnson group had not changed. Throughout the country there is evident a de termination to learn definitely what the treaty and covenant mean, and the crowds (hat flock to hear the presi dent and the opposition senators are not actuated solely hy curiosity to see and hear notables. Each In his own way, and from his own standpoint, the speakers are trying to enlighten the people, and it Is especially gratify ing to note Hint Mr. Wilson Is more explicit In ids explanations of the articles over which the main contests have arisen. The national committee for organiz ing Iron and steel workers announced that the great steel strike would be gin Monday, September 22. according to schedule, since every effort to hold a conference with Chairmen Gary of tlie United State* Steel corporation had foiled. Mr. Gary Issued a state ment explaining his refusal on two grounds; First, that fie did not be lieve (he committee was authorized to speak for large numbers of the em ployees; second, that a conference with the committee would have been treated hy It Is a recognition of Hie closed shop method of employment, which method the corporation Is de termined not to countenance, since It destroys the worker's personal Inde pendence and ambition to succeed and prosper. The organizing committee re plied Hint these two reasons are false. off the difficulties foreseen Is nn effort Tn Induce thp workers t Increase pro duction by showing them the “dan gerously critical position" In which Great Hrltnln Is now placed by the bal ance of trade against her. For July the adverse balance of trade amounted to about 5.’t.H0.000.000, according to figures given out by the American chamber. Imports for that month Increased about 1M.’>0,000,000, while exports Increased only about s.*?,- and that the employees of the corpo ration are now compelled to resort to a strike in order to prove to Judge Gary the authority of their selected representatives to present their griev ances. In the Chicago district, at least, strike-breakers will not be em ployed, according to the company of ficials. The strikers will be paid off and discharged permanently, and if the walkout Is general, the mills will shut down. Disorders In Boston, due to the strike of policemen, were largely sup pressed hy the military, but the situa tion otherwise was little improved. The firemen, however, decided not to quit, and the threatened general strike was at least postponed. The attitude of tlte American Federation of Labor toward the Boston case Is peculiar. President Gompers, while defending the strike, admitted the police were given a charter on the express un> derstandlng that they would not strike. Then Mr. Opmper’s secretary visited Boston to study the situation, and on leaving announced tlint (lie federation stood solidly behind the striking po licemen. lie intimated that lie did not favor a general strike at this time. Chiefly because the police force of Washington also was unionised In the face of orders to the contrary. Presi dent Wilson took a hand in the mat ter of police unions. He sent a tele gram to Commissioner Brownlow of the District of Columbia in which lie said; “I think that any association of the police force of the capital city, or of any great city, whose object Is to bring pressure upon the public or the community, such as will endanger the public pence or em barrass (lie maintenance of order, should In no case tie countenanced or permitted.” Announcement that (lie carpenters’ strike and consequent building indus try tie-up in the Chicago district had ended was not only premature, but seemingly false. The carpenters were ostensibly given a chance to vote on the question, but instead of a secret ballot, the voting was open, and the contractors assert that tints the labor bosses were able to Intimidate the men and obtain a majority for rejection of the compromise offered. Two big meetings of general Inter est were held in Chicago last week. The first was the annual convention of the Zionists of America, at which plans were laid for the industrial In vasion of Palestine by (lie .Tews. The first of flic Invaders will lie members of the Jewish legion that fought In the Holy Land under General Allenhy. Steps were taken to raise the Immense sums needed to develop Palestine. The executive committee expects to get as much as $7,000,000 in America during the coming year. The other meeting was of some ,'tOO leaders of tlie Anti-Saloon League of America, who were completing their program for a campaign designed to make the whole world dry. They de cided they must raise at least $5,000,- 000 for the work and that prohibition must be enforced In American cities ns proof to the world that the sale of liquor cun he stopped. The gulf coast of Texas suffered se verely from (he tropical hurricane that swept up from the Caribbean sea. Scores of persons were drowned and immense property damage was done, especially In Corpus Chrlstl and the region roundabout. Prosecution of the packers by the government proceeded apace with the presentation of evidence to the grand Jury In Chicago. Notwithstanding the outcry of Chicago organizations In de fense of the “big five,” this evidence and what Is yet to come Is declared by Attorney General Palmer to he ample to sustain the Indictment of the combination of packers, and he added that when the collected data "Is laid before a Jury (lie wrath of the Amer ican people will compel a verdict of conviction. The story will amaze America.” Patriotic Americans were gratified hy the sentence Imposed hy Judge Dean at Jackson, Minn., on President E- C. Town ley of the Nonpartisan league and Joseph Gnllhert, former manager, who had been convicted of conspiring to teach sedition. They were given 00 days in Jail—the limit under the statute. that this discloses a serious situation, and says that while It may seem very well for Great Hrltnln to buy from America much more than she sells to America, that la r. “fool’s paradise” for Americans, The chamber explains that nn exces sive adverse balance against Great Hrltnln would force down sterling ex change on New York and compel (treat Hrltnln to buy elsewhere, where ex change Is higher.
