HERE is force in the arguinent of the Adjutant General of the United States Army that the War Department's system of dis charging returned soldiers cannot be held primarily responsible for the fact that discharged men tend to congregate in the cities, As the Adjutant Genera! points out Young men from the farms and rural communities have ed communities ire of such men been taken from their secluded homes and isc and have seen something of the world. The de to go to large cities and seek the excitement and distraction there is a fault of human nature that cannot be overcome by legislation or War Department regulation. As a matier of fact, the movement of workers toward the cities had become a serious problem in the United States before this Natio entered the war. From all secti8ns came reports of the sistible attraction of the munition plants and the movies and the growing difficulty of obtaining farm labor at any price, When the country mobilized for war this was one of the first conditions that had to be dealt with. The end of the war can hardly be expected to arrest 4 once the general tendency. Least of all can returning soldiers be expected {o be the first to the example by turning their bac ks on the city. Congress has provided a bonus of $60 for each officer and soldier who served during any part of the war, including those already dis charged. This is supposed to make it possible for each man dis-| harged to go straight from camp to his home withou help from any one having to ask « with $60 in his The man discharged from a camp near New Ye pocket is under strong temptation to stay on a while in the city, sec the sights and maybe get a job. But even if he were sent home to his local draft board before he got his discharge and his money, the attraction of nearest city would still be pretty certain to work powerfully on him There is no use trying to deny various unsettling effects of war ’ g which are bound to make themselves f in directions of greater or But we less moment should take vare not to exaggerate those effects them with common sense and without making bugaboos of them, As a matter of plain justice, men who left jobs here in New| York to fight should@ot come back to find those jobs given to dis-| ‘vharged soldiers who before the war lived and worked in other parts | the country, but who now prefer to stay in New York Appeals on this score to employers in New York are not likely to! go unheeded. The Merchants’ Association has made a timely plea in behalf of men withdrawn for service from this city. But it doubtful whether the returning of all soldiers to their homes before discharging them could keep New York clear of growing numbers of ex-zoldiers seeking jobs ng after hostilities have ceased We should endeavor to mitigate | is popular and widely appreciated writers on he Evening World staff.) “can't you read the letter to mej invitation, and threw themselves He's a half-wit.” retty good, kid!" sa Wer extraordinary talent for interviewing, her quick observatic op {now?" asked Mr rr. “Why spoil! right at Jack Silver's head, I nev wee ‘ + atutt?’ dee eat Sous aie ’ 1 tvation, her ; | “Where d’ye get that stuff?" de get you--a mandolin ha Khack of making any subject readable, her vivid, compact style fon |x, aay win a Mun ng ourioalty, to sen, such air Le never {ak I ove and Matrimon manded Bobbie, ‘You never made | and” . : lrealize 1 will not know what Miss ‘of sisters, except the way th “ jl ayy peer 2." “You a need to ex h ber a distinct place in New York journalism ‘ “4 ith) a , anybody laugh in your life his Indivi tuality was a natural he t f fede ceo : re fail ye ae fi eA eh ree i ting,” res | Tr. : Peru SUE ald UBGRN NT, ete iy Sere ensue TaN duality was al heritage of the granddaughter shades of night are falling fast’ 8 ery interestin . er Er little Bookkeeper, “Let's not indulge |bad enough without explanations, Horace Greeley.
