long letter from Uncle Ted to read
by the fire. I've been cold ever
since we went down by the river.
It was Saturday and Jack has been

thing his mother refused to let him

Ruth, “if mother finds out. No

"I know I shouldn’t have done

it any more and if you’ll be good

will sit in front of the fire while I
dry my shoes and stockings and we
can play games."
"We can do better than that, for

steps to meet Uncle Sam's messen

"Dearest Kiddles' Uncle Ted
hopes that you are both well and 1
happy and that you are very good
children. You must be good to your
mother for you knew Unele Ted al
ways finds out sooner or later. lam
having | wonderful visit in Wash
ington and I only wish you could be
with me. Even now the city shows
marked signs of the big event to
start on Nevember 11, when the rep
resentatives of the big countries will
meet .for the conference which we
hope will result in cutting down
armaments and lessening the chances
of war for the future. With the
German, Austrian and Hungarian
peaoe treaties out of the way and
with active work in progress toward
the proclamation, and appointment
of ambassadors, and resuming of dip
lomatic relations, the thoughts of
the state department can be turned
to he work of he conference with
nothing else to worry them.
“The first to arrive In connection
with this conference arrived on Sat
urday. October 23. when the first of
the Japanese delegation came from
San Francisco where they landed
several days before from their boat.
In this delegation were Vice Admir
al Kato and General Tanaka and sev
eral aides who will play an Import
ant part in the conference. Prince
Tokogawa, who heads the Japanese
delegation, will arrive soon with Ad
miral Tomasaburo Kato, another
delegate. The third big delegate
from Japan is Baron Shldehara, who
is already in Washington as ambas
sador from his country.
“There are many people who feel
that this conference Is a foolish
thing, because they think it will end
the same as the Paris peace confer
ence and the world club plan. This
can not be. children, because Presi
dent Harding has made It plain, as
far back as last July when he sent
out the first invitation, that com
plete disarmament is impossible, and
we can be sure that he will do noth
ing and has nothing in mind except
action that is practical. As Presi
dent Harding said in his Invitation
of Aug. 11—‘Productive labor Is
staggering under an economic bur
den too heavy to be borne unless the
present vast public expenditures are
greatly reduced. It is Idle to look
for stability, or the assurance of so
cial justice, or the security of peace,
whilt wasteful and unproductive
outlays deprive effort of its just re
ward and defeat the reasonable ex
pectation of progress.'
"So you see, children, the only
way to even hope for halting these
ever-increasing costs for armament
is for the countries most largely
concerned to get together and find
some basis upon which to agree
where to stop building ships, guns,
etc.
“When yon see these men who are
already in Washington, such men as
Admiral Beatty of England, Gen.
Jacques of Belgium. Gen. Diax of It
aly and Marshall Foch of France,
men whose business is based upon
war—when you see them here with
an earnest desire to help bring about
a cutting down of arms and an
agreement to help toward wond
peace, at least to a certain degree,
you feel, that the fellow who thinks
this confrence is a joke, is a joke
himself. In other words. President
Harding has called the nations to
gether at the right time to talk
about the right subject. He is not
assuming to tell themwhat to do.

for example, with regard to the Pa
cific and the Far East where the sit
uation is most grave between Japan
and China. He has asked them to
come and talk it all over as men.
men representing their countries and
as men who, like himself, feel that
war is horrible and that any practi
cal step to help reduce its chances
should be taken at once.
“‘China, which has much at stake,
feels very happy over the prospect.
Through her minister in Washing
ton she replied to the invitation,
saying amoung other things: “This
conference at Washington, called by
the President of the United States,
for the promotion of peace, cannot
but contribute in a large measure to
the accomplishment of results that
will enable the people of the world
to enjoy prosperity and happiness
and obtain permanent release from
the calamities of war.' Japan was
just as strong in her reply as were
the other powers.
"Another vital subject to be tak
en up will be the control of new and
ghastly means of warfare. The
world will not soon forget that Ger
many was the first to use poison gas
and it Is t<x be part of the work of
this conference to control the use of
this and worse weapons.
“All tn all, children, I find a spirit
of hope throughout our National
capital, both from Americans and
foreigners and I know that practi
cal steps toward p'eace will be taken
when these men meet on November
11. It may take several months for
them to complete their work. It
may mean many misunderstandings,
but in the end a settlement will be
reached to make it more difficult
tor nations to fly at each others
throats whenever they disagree. I
will be home again soon to tell you
more, but I must stop now and go to
bed. Be good children.
“With lots of love.
"Your Uncle Ted.”
ONE WAY TRAFFIC
There is only one road to the town
of “Success,"
The name of the road is "Work."
It has room for only honest guests.
Traffic’s blocked to those who
shirk.
The road is open all hours of today,
It heeds neither time nor date.
And now is the time to start on your
way,
For tomorrow will be too late.
Nearly all of the way is an uphill
road:
It seems like a tough old fight.
But once on your way just bear up
your load
And keep going with all your
might.
You will pass through many towns
each day
Such as Failure, Gloom, and De
spair;
At each of these stations just keep
on your way.
For “Work” does not tarry there.
After you have entered the town of
. "Success."
.Though your load may have been
hard to bear.
Once Inside you will find comfort
and rest.
Just be thankful you started for
there.
Don’t miss the Crescent tonight.
A federal court sitting in Des
Moines has held that the action of
the state executive council in raising
the valuation of the railroads of the
state fcr taxation purposes was un
fair to the railways in that they
were rated for taxing purposes at a
higher percentage of their actual
value than the farm lands of the
state.
There will be critics, of course,
who will denz the correctness of this
judgment. Bet a great majority of
the people who are unbiased w>ll
agiee that the decision squares with
tho facts.
Ihe executive council fixed the
value of the farm lands in the state
for taxing purposes at $76 ner acre.
It is the judgment of the court that
f 125 per acre is more nearly cor
rect.
The trial of this case emphasized
the necessity of a tax commission in
lowa. A commission of experts
should go into this subject and work
out a plan which would place all
forms of taxable property tn the
state on a basis of equality. The
task would be intricate, but it can
be done. At present city property is
in most cases rated fo. taxation
higher than any other form of prop
erty. And there is wide and unfair
discrepancy In every city in the state
in the valuations placed upon houses
and business blocks.
The present system of fixing val
ues is the result of continuing a pol
icy which met the needs of a prim
itive state down through years of
marvelous increase in value of all
kinds of taxable property. We need
in place of this archaic system a
modern, scientific plan which is
made to fit modern conditions.
We do not need a plan to increase
taxation. The need is for a plan
which equitably distributes the bur
dens of supporting the government
among people who own taxable prop
erty.
AMERICAN LEGION MEETING
The American Legion convention
held in Kansas City the fore part of
the week was the greatest assembly
of its kind in the history of our
country. It marks the beginning of
annual meetings of the Legion which
will continue as long as there are
survivors of the world war.
These Legion meetings are start
ing practically with the termination
of the annual gatherings of the old
union army men who fought to pre
serve the government of this coun
try, from 1861 to 1865.
The country was fortunate to have
had the Grand Army organization.
It has been a source of patriotic in
spiration from its inception. It is
equally fortunate now in the posses
sion of another organization whose
primary purpose will be to continue
the patriotic endeavors of its G. A.
R. predecessor.
The Legion will deal Jn these
meetings with many subjects, but
running all through the warp and
woof of its proceedings there will al
ways be a dominant note of loyalty
to the country. It will stand for one
flag, one language and unhyphen
ated allegiance to the constitution.
We still have in America great
problems to solve. Chief among
these is the thorough Americaniza
tion of our population. The Legion
can always be relied upon to stand
four square on this issue. It is
bound to exert a powerful influence
for good in this direction.

OPEN WINTER PREDICTED
An “open winter” was prophesied
by Gene Dunning, who for forty
years has been weather prognosti
cator at Fort Dodge, lowa.
Mr. Dunning hasn’t missed on his
predictions for twenty years. He has
kept a daily record on the weather
for half a century.
“It for three days before and six
days after the sun crosses the equat
or a south to southeasterly wind is
blowing, it indicates a mild winter,”
declared Mr. Dunning. “It may be
harder than last winter, but by no
means a hard winter.”
Folks living near Montevideo,
Mina., years ago threw away their
alimnacs, goose bones and other de
vices used to foretell winter weath
er. Fol’ eight years a mule In that
neighborhood has been the weather
forecaster and has always hit it
right, the citizens say. When the
mule puts on a heavy fall coat early
in the season and leaves it on, a long
