Twenty-five to fifty billions for Germany to pay in fifty years for the damage her armies did to the world le little enough when It is realized that the war has cost the United States thirty billiuntt and we were only in it during the last act. as it were. Germany will have a population SO per cent as great as that of the United States. Her indemnity will cost her only five billions in the next two years •whereas the war tax bill raised si* billions in the United States this year alone. Germany if given fifteen years in which to pay twenty billions more or a billion and a quarter per annum plus interest whereas the war tax bill will raise four billions from the people of the United States nest year alone. After that a commission on which the German government is to be pepre sented is to fix further indemnities for Germany to pay. Fifty billions or even 100 billions in fifty years would be little enough for the German people to pay. Stripped of their huge standing army and de prived of a navy to support they can save the amount of their war indem nity in the burden of militarism "which has been kicked off their hacks. The real problem is not what Ger many can afford to pay but. what kind of coin can it be paid in. All the gold produced in the world does not amount to half a billion in any one year. How then can Germany eend to other countries one or two billions a year in war Indemnities and their interest? She must pay in goods and Koods to the amount of indemnities must be sent to other nations In excess of the goods received by Germany in ex change. There must be a balance of trade in Germany's favor equal to the war indemnity she is to pay and Ger man factories will hum with the in dustry of the machinery her soldiers stole from France and Belgium. France will get the Saar coal fields but only to replace the coal mines which German armies ruthlessly de stroyed in France. Goods to the amount of foods which Germany im ports plus more goods to the amount of the Indemnities must go abroad bearing the hated made-in-Germany trade marks. No wonder France and Belfflum must have an international trade commission to determine how fifty billions can be collected from Germany as war indemnity without giving German goods command of a world-wide trade, which should belong to the devastated factories of their own countries. DON'T LH THIIE BOYS HfAR YQQI In a bed In ward 9 of the S. general hospital at Ft. Des Moines as this is written Sergeant Frank Smith is sitting and In all probability massaging the stumps which are what Frank Smith has left of two good legs wher offered himself to his country. Sergeant Smith has laid and eat in one hospital bed after another for more than six months from first aid sta tions on the battle field to Fort Des Koines. Both legs axe gone close to his body. He will be years learning to walk on artlllcial limbs—If he is ever able to do ao. But if you were to walk in this morning and speak to Frank he would greet you with a smile. If you talked with him about his wound you would hear no querulous complaint, no expressed regret over what he ha* given. Frank 1* only a boy, a lad scarcely 21. to hobble thru Ufa perhaps on crutches because be 1* a patriot. Just a lad without leg*. Yet the man who stayed at home and made money and took down doubled waga may be heard complain ing that he was "forced" to buy bonds and whining that he may have to buy another In the coming drive. Frank •Smith did not lend bis limbs. HI* gave them irrevocably. The man who bought a bond simply took money out of one pocket to put iback Into an other. And he is (being paid for its use. Upstairs in the same ward lie* Charley Oude, shot to pieces. Charley is another boy of about 22 years of age. He will be In the hosptal for another six nw^hs or longer. He has U» D, •. a lor uoeptloul bravery where *11 nut were fenw* and p*m tlcially every man a fcero. Ha machine gun company. In which to* *m a sua* ner. were two days without water chasing the flying Hum. aearrhing out machine gun nests, getting Into the barrage* when the doughboys charged, dragging the guns without food, not during tp eat their emergency ration* because the salt meat accentuated thirst and there wss no water, under shell fire, gas and direct fire all the time night and day. He took one wound when asleep without knowing that he had been hit, so deep was the exhaustion of those men. In Charley'i final fight within five minute after daylight the enemy got a direct hit on the gun. killing two of the orew and wounding another, "I never got a scratch," said Charley. Then they dragged in another gun and a direct hit tore that to pieces and killed most of the gun crew. As they were bring ing up the third gun to the same em placement it was discovered that Charley was badly wounded and he was ordered back. On his way back he was again wounded and fell. Hn life was saved by a couple of boys bringing up oliow who lost Jed him on an ammunition cart and took him back to a first aid station. That's all there was to it," said Charley ilepre catingly when the story had been forced out of him. "Why. Dad.' he explained to the man he was telling the story. "Why I don't deserve that cross half as mbch as the boys who were killed in that hole and the other boys who stayed on to fight It cut. 1 didn't do much and I was lucky. The whole company wa* just as deserving ai 1. But the lleut said he was going to report me and he did. Thst's the way I got it." You might talk to Charley Gude a month and never hear a complaint or an uttered regret over the service he gave his country. Charley in time is goin* to be reasonably whole again, perhaps after six months more In bed and in years of recovery to come. But Charity never squeals. He figures that he simply performed his duty. Imagine Frank Smith and Charley Gude listening to the whine of a buck ng Ixind buyer. VOTIRS SHOULD HEAD TMi IMPORT. The report of the judiciary commit tee Ha printed today in the Times-Re publiean should be read by every voter. For voters are responsible for the elec tion of the governor upon whom th*. report casts its white light of con demnation. The voters are also re sponsible for the legislators who are to pass upon this report to its adop tion or rejection. It is the pairt of wisdom for the public to inform itself as to the report in Its entirety, the charges it makes and the manner in which those charges are supported and support themselves. It is a question of fitness of Mr. Harding to longer occupy the most eminent office in the gift of the voters. I-ater it will be come a question of whether the legis lator is fit to represent the public which placed him with authority to represent the homes and the varied interests and the morality of the state. It is unfair to Jump at conclusions. Read the report. In tlie matter of the impeachment of a governor party politics become inconsiderable but certain leaders are already in Des Moines, according to newspaper reports, active in an effort to frighten republican members with the bogie of elections to come in an ef fort to drag Harding by. Some of those leaders have a fellow feeling for the governor no doubt. As to elections, the republican who feels he must take that into consideration may well turn to the reports of the latest state elec- To Call 3 Queto "MOhse THA Airncf TSf/nW" j£» I $ a- •laoUd by tha blgaaat majority «f«r glrea a covwaar, oama within a few tkmnM TOtN of bain* defeeftH toy Claud* Porttr, Tbaro so floufot that had Wilton aot ordered the Vnttad Mate* to to democratic that Porter would have baen eleoted. Wllaon's ar roganca brought out republican straight votes. And at that a chang* of 4.000 or 6,000 votes would fiave beaten Harding. If Harding Is now to be whitewashed and the discredited of ficials stand as approved by the re publicans. what would be the natural and logical effect upon the "neat elec tions" over which the Harding boost ers seem so deeply exercised. Tho fact I# that the party whloh has the courage and character to clean Ita own house wins and deservas the confldenca of the public and the voter*. The party which tttempta to cover the misdeeds, incompetencies and un fitness of Its own house loses and de serves to lose the confidence of the public and the voters. And that goes double, including the representatives who have courage and public spirit and those who play the back room game of politics. The one Is approved and wins the other is discredited and loses. The American public makes mis takes, many mistake* but the Am erican public is quick to confess ^ls errors and correct them aa quickly as possible. The best thing Harding could do is to follow the example of his fellow of tlolals. AJlen and Hlnshaw. Topics of the Times If tho public brought impeachment proceedings the whole case would be over by tomorrow afternoon. Anti road legislators should be taken for a 100 mile drive as the best argu ment to be .submitted to them. Fifty billions for Germany and fifty years to pay it in. Why the U. S. A. will not get off easier than thatl When a business is running behind like the railroads the latest remedy is to raise wages. Time doesn't seem to be the essence o-: the contract offered Germany. Fifty years la a mighty long Installment proposition. When we get some of those hard roads the farmer can attend to busi ness in town on rainy days and have his time free for field work when the sun shines. With prices for material and labor stimulated by the inflation of war, the long way aiound for our hard roads procedure may be -the lowest cost in the end. If we had any assurance that an American dollar would never buy any more thai) 60 cents worth of stuff land would have to sell for $400. par acre to regain its pre-war price of 1300. Things can't come down until there is a surplus. Wages will not come dewn until men are out of work. No body will volunteer to slide down. IOWA OPINION AND NOTES. "It" some people had to think twice before they spoke they would remain silent forever." wickedly asserts the Sioux City Journal. The way the Waterloo Times-Trib une explains it: "All the bolsheviks want is what the other fellow. has— then it's up to the other fellow to be come a bolshevik and get is-back." "It took nearly twenty-five years to protect the people of Iowa against notes taken by traveling doctors and other persons: notes without valid consideration, but linally it was en acted that a valid defense against a Ain't It a Grand and Glorious Fee WHetJ Yoofit MoTXSft Co AVm ftvTHjsrfk ?lHT mis AAJtJ Y0U «5»T ALOW6 JM Ike- «oom 6r.t Your, -AJJD "TV*eM DICK OTTIR VISITS BKT^Y OTT1R1S HOMC.

When Dick Ottor h*ard Brtsy's sweet voice echo ing across tha flashing waters, he jumped out of his bed so quickly that ho stubbed his toe, and fell sprawllnff on the floor of his bedroom In the tour row in the bank. And in a Jiffy h* dove into the water and was soon swimming for dear life, to find the lovely creature who owned that sweet voice which waked him from his sound slumbers. At last behind a little wooded Island, he found the lost Betsy and her big brother, diving for big salmon trout. Each had cawht a handsomely painted fish, and when Dick Otter swam to them Betsy exclaimed. "Dick Otter, let me Introduce you to my big brother," and both shook hands in a very friendly manner, as they floated In the crystal blue water. Betsy's big brother said at once, "Dick Otter, we've heard all about you, and father and mother want you to come at once for breakfast and we have some fine flsfc for our morning meal." so-called 'innocent purchaser,* would protect the person who signed the note. 'Let us hope It will not take an other twenty-live years to protect the people against those who sell worth less securities." is the expressed hope of the 'Des Moines Capital. "Unless we make peace before long the proposed league of peace will amount to no more than an ftlllsnce of the victorious nations against the threatening internationalism of east ern Kurope," says the .Monticello Ex press. The Decorah Republican says "the democrats have proven themselve* the greatest uplifters of the age. This is shown by the railroad rates, ex press charges and telephone tolls. What more can be wanted?" "At last the Iowa legislature is go in* to take notice of the doing ot the Iowa commission to the Panama-Pa cific exposition and especially to the charges that have been made against the secretary, Woodworth Clum. These matters have stunk to high heaven and the republicans had better clean the slate while they are at it." declares the What Cheer Patriot. IS THE BIRTHDAY OF Sylvanus Sawyer, IS IT TOURS APRIL, 15. 1SJ2. Sylvanus Sawyer was one of the "Yankee Inventors."

And Dick Otter" was ao bappr that hi* beating heart seemed ready to Jump out of his fur Jacket. When they rcached Betsy's house ahe Introduced Dick Otter to her father, pother and brothers and sisters. They all had a splendid fish breakfast, and they had lots of thlnM to talk about.. And Father Otter ea* claimed, "Why Dick Ottar, you tell m* your father's nam* I* Otl* Otter. Btea* your little heart, I know hlu wall.

When Dlok heard thi* good new* his heart nearly Jumped into his mouth, he was so happy, fnd he felt that Betsy's father would allow Betey to go back to Mirror Pond to live with him. They all had a very Jolly time to gether and Dick said, ''It's the nicest visit 1 ever had In my life and my family will ib« glad that I met such nice people on my first Journey out into the Great World." Tomorrow—A Terrible Accident For Dick Otter. lginatsd with thoaa of tha family who owned saw mills run by water power and who w«re consequently caller Sawyera. At leaat, such is the story. The first of the Sawyers to emigrate to America were captured by the In dians, but ao astonished their captor* by their mechanical ability that they were set free. Sylvanus, born in Mas sachusetts In 1822, inherited his share of the family gift of cleverness. When lie was a very small boy he invented and made hi* own toys and surprised those who knew him by the ingenuity he showed. StSl! a mere boy, he in vented a water wheel, a reed organ and a hand car to be- worked by foot power, but as he lacked the knowledge of bow to patent these things, they bo came public property. He worked for a time in a gun shop and learned to make fire arms, then he returned to his home and went to work In a factory where cane seat* for chairs were made. It required nineteen laborious devices for stripping cane and making it ready to weave, Sylvanus Sawyer reduced these to one operation, and this invention he pat ented and made money on. He also invented several new devices for can nons and was the flrst, supposedly, to make rifle cannon out of steel. Ho moved to Fitchburg after the civil war. And Why Shouldn't They? So far from wishing to stay In France after the war, as It wss thought a good many American sol diers might do, figures at tho war de partment, It is said, show that only 125 out of 2,000,000 have expressed a desire to remain permanently.
