Medal Topeka, Kan,, Oct, 31.—A plug of tobacco is the hero of this yarn and if things inanimate ever won the Distinguished Service Cross, this par- ticular plug deserves the honor. On a French road in the battle zone during the World War, a young American Lieutenant, Frank H. fc- I'arland, assistant United States dis- trict ‘attorney, past commander of the Kansas Department and now National Vice Commander of the Leglon was asked -for a ‘“chew of bacey"” by a comrade. Stopping to fish the well-gnawed and elusive plug from_ a baggy pocket, McFar- land exchged late stories with the / tobacco borrower, while two compan fons with whom he had been on the way to a machine gun nest, proceed- ed down the street. They had ad- vanced only a hundred yards when a bomb, dropped from a German airplane, killed them both, along with three other Americans. The borrower of the fateful plug was Lieutenant Bobe. clown of the outfit, who is now a baseball catcher in the Texas league. “If the gove ernment wants to give that plug a medal and it should,” said Boho who tells the story, “it'll have to be a posthumous award, ‘cause when that bomb fell I swallowed the whole darn plug.” hospital had { - 1 |[DR.

FRANK CRANE At a recent meeting of the League of Nations, at Genoa, there were indications that the world is coming nearer to the point of rcognizing thet there must be some other arbiter of the destiny of a nation, than itself. Both Mr, Herrfott and Mr. MacDonald recognize that superlor force must be applied against any nation breaking the peace. nation taking matters in its own hands and defending its own henor or It will have the whole world against it. Mr. Herriott was inclined to apply this force in a military way while Mr, MacDonald leaned toward economic pressure, but both of them saw that there can be no peace in the world until the ultimate arbiter of des- tiny is made something clse than the nation itself, It is a d:ficuit matter for anyone to realize that he may be wrong.

Natignal vanities, egotism and patriot- ism must bow down before the common good. There are two causes of war, as Mr. Hoover brings out in a recent book. These causes are the vanity of nations, and their fear. out war, therefore, we must lower our ggotism and defy our fears. One hundred per cent Americanism must give way to ons hundred per eent humanity and the fear of other nations must give way to trust in them. There Is no way to run this world and its nation way to get along individually, without faith in one another. Faith is not only the foundation of neighborly peace and of com- merce, but it must be made the foundation of politics. Every nation ie inclined 10 believe In the vilalnly and chicanery of others and in its own honesty of purpose, but we must get to the point where we all believe in each other, trust each other, and are willing to submit our destinies and interests to some impartial tribunal, can be no such thing as peace upon earth, The League of Nations was an affort toward this and we shall wel The day of one To strike just as there is no or there Copyright, 1924, by The McClure Newspaper Syndicate.
