In each convoy that comes to Evian out from behind the German lines, you will find from 10 to 35 women who have babies under two years old, and all of these/children must have German fathers. “Do” these women love their chil- | dren Most of them do, but one out of every 10 you will find has been 80 | abused by jts German father that | she can hardly treat the child at her j kindly.

Poche soldier gets hi he often stays back or] ead of going home to hi family, because he knows that . his; family does not have the food to} eat that the soldier does.

If he has a little piece of land, he will, be. cultivating that. Every French soldier tries to make his wife and children a little more! comfortable while he is home, and! as he gets only 5 cents a day he al-! ways tries to make a litle money when he is on: “permission.” At Evian: the. old people. seem to me the most pitiful, for the. children haye. a future, they may grow. into! strong men: and women. But the old—my heart was breaking for them. | A great:.many. of them are so worn | that the-joy of getting back to ‘la Patrie’. is too much for them, and they die within 24 hours after ar- rival. pa The:.old people. are taken to the Convent; of Joan, of Are, where the gentle mothers and sisters care for them. But I felt that on the door of this: place should be written, “aban- don hope all ye who enter here,” for only those without friends and only a short time to live, are taken here, While I was at-Evian, two sisters, who had gone mad from the cruelty of.the Huns, were brought here to die. I would not like any. woman to have heard their cries for mercy from their captors, it was. horrible. The-system of finding relatives and friends ;is,so wonderful at Evian that most of them are sent away within the day, to someone who is waiting for them:* But. the poor_old woman whose pic- ture is printed here. was lame and alk.alone.. Evidently in all the. world she had, no one . whose eyes would brighten for her.

Half a year and more has passed; since inception of the system and no; critics have, arisen to find fault with the. consolidation statute which em powers. the goyernor to name or. cx move any or. all of. the nine depa' ment heads to whom.a host of minor | appointees are subservient. The act) was passed by the general assembly | of 1917 and in the vote party lines; were obliterated. i New York, Ohio, Wisconsin, and oth-} er'states have attempted government reforms in the-name of efficiency, but; Miinois: was the first to write on the statute books. a comprehensive ad- ministrative code, according to. the; Illinois legislative reference bureau. i ‘As a concession to certain, recale rant elements, Governor, Frank 0. Lowden agreed, to leave outside the purview of the. consolidation law, in accordance with laws already in force; tho. election of trustees of the state | university and of members. of the) hoard ,of equalization, the board of) agriculture and, the Farmers’ inath| tute. The theory was further modified byt constitutional provisions which — re- qui¥éd: that.-the. secretary. of; state, state auditor, state treasurer and su-) perintendent. of public in truction be} elected ag individual officials. | In addition to the departmental di-| visions, all functions quasi-judicial, or | quasi-legislative are performed | by boards or commissions without super-| viston-or control by department heads. | Members: of. these commissions re-| ceive compensation for fixed services. | Questions, of policy and expediency are decided with: the cooperation of; advisory boards composed of persons of expert skill and. knowledge who give their time and scientific informa- tion as<a- patriotic service, One change in the -governmental system, looked ,upon.as a decided ad- vantage is the: ‘centralized purchasing sageney in: the department of public works and Suildings, making possible standardization of purchases with large saving ‘to the state.~ In no case is the salary of the di- rector of a department in excess of _$7,000. By. thé elimination of’ Sea cconatcttag: commissions-an BARRON Prati iis RE IAT Tee ficlals, expense to the state was cut off, making it possible to employ men of large capacity for the administra tive task Charles E, Woodward, who drew up the code, say..that the civil adminis innovation Students and practical administrators have always recognized the inherent w ii ate governments, caused pr ly by the distribution of power: responsibility among many exccutives. The civil administrdtive code, while ne ‘1 omitting certain state ac: tivities is the first comprehensive scheme enacted into law to. render jour state government stronger and , more efficient.” Agitation for a reform in the Illinois em of government began to have sults in the forty-eighth general as. sembly, when, an efficiency and econ- omy commission was named to study reorganization questions. A ‘report was made to the forly-ninth general jassembly, but nothing in the way of legislation resulted. Governor Lowden, in his campaign for election, advocated such a gov: ernmental system as was later ena ed into law and now is-in force. ISN’T SATISFIED. Louisville, Ky., April.1—Richard K.
