The war department issues the following in- structions to men already discharged: Those who have been discharged and have received their final pay without the $60 bonus should write a letter to the Zone Finance Officer, Lemon Building, Washington, D. C., stat- ing their service since April 6, 1917, the date of last discharge and their present address to which they desire f,hel.r bonus checks to be sent, and inclosing with this letter their discharge | certificate or military order for discharge, or both, if both were issued. P Upon the receipt by the Zone Finance Officer, Washing- ton, D. C,, of this information and the soldier’s discharge cer- tificate, this officer will cause checks to be drawn and mailed to the claimants in the order in which their claims were re- ceived by him. The discharge certificate will be returned to the soldier with the check. It is estimated that at least 1,250,000 persons have been discharged from the service who are entitled to the benefits of this act and, while payments will be made as expeditiously as practicable, it will manifestly take considerable time to write and mail this many checks. » P / “YANKEE” (With unusual apologies.) I went into a factory to.find a job to do; The superintendent up an’ says: “We got no work for you.” The guy they gave my old job to, he giggled fit to die; I went into the street again, and to myself said I: O ’twas Yankee this and Yankee that, and “Yankee ataboy!” But it’s “Awful sorry, Yankee,” from the people ,who employ. The people who employ, my boys, the people who employ. And it’s “Awful sorry, Yankee,” from the people who employ. =\ I went into an office with my chevron o’ discharge; The boss he greets me joyful with a “Glad to see you, Sarge.” “I come to take my job again,” I then begins to sing. The boss he says he’s sorry, but he hasn’t got a thing. O ’twas Yankee this, and Sammy that, and devil-dog Tharines, But it’s pretty chilly comfort with no jack within your jeans; No dough within your jeans, my boys, no kale within your jeans; And it’s{ard to buy a dinner with no jack within your jeans. You talk o’ reconstruction an’ a lot o’ high-brow truck, But a bird that’s out o’ money is a jake that’s out of luck. Hand out a job to every gob and doughboy when he asks, An’ you won’t need no committees on re-education tasks. ! O ’'twas Yankee this, an’ Yankee that, an’ “Yankee, lick the Hun!” But it’s “Busy, call again, sir,”” when the dirty war is done; The worksome war is done, my boys, the irksome war is done; Arn’ it’s where’s the job for soldiers when the nasty war is done? ¢ —F. P. A. in the New York Tribune. - Wilson Receives Farmer Delegates President Expresses His Appreciation of Support for World League—Promises to Transmit’ Suggestions N MARCH 8 President Wilson received the rep- resentatives of the or- ganized farmers, includ- ing those appointed to go to Europe, to discuss the farmers’ recommendations regarding the league of nations. He expressed hisappreciation of the interest which the farmers were taking in world union, and promised to submit their suggestions for changes to the com- datory state (one responsible for colonies). - UotRE The creation under the league of an international investment board, an in- ternational board of trade, an interna- . tional commerce commission, ‘and’ an international bureau of agriculture, in addition to the labor bureau already - provided for. 5 Inasmuch as the executive council provided can meet all necessary func- tions, an international court is unnee- cessary and would be an invasion of the rights of sovereignty of the mem- ber states. 3 : It should be made clear that there is no intention to secure for member states any concessions such as were formerly secured by “most favored nation” treaties. . ; The principle of ‘proportional repre- sentation should be adopted so that- member states shall vote not only as oy units but in proportion to their respec- DRt tive populations. » : In promising to transmit these sug- gestions, the president said, in part: “We have to make some sacri- . fices to get ‘peace and it is werth stitution. ; While heartily indorsing the gen- eral plan for the league of nations, the representatives of the farmers in Washington believe the = following changes should be made: Member states ‘should have ' the right to determine their own immi- gration-policy. It should be clearly provided that any state may withdraw from the Jeague .upon giving due notice and upon. -affirmative ' referendum by its people. ! ; . s The" constitution should define in- exact terms the liabilities of a man< e
