EVENING PUBLIC
Help the Unemployed
Te Help Unemnteved Ex-Soldiers
Te Ihe Editor et the Evcnine Public Ltdecr:
sir Ht read very much these days re
garding the way the Government Is treat
ing the ox-aeldlers. I agree with the critics
that It Is a shame, but while we, In a,
great majorltyef cases, may -agree, It deei
net help the matter.
There Is one suggestion that I have net
seen made te help these men In your People's
Kerum symposium, and that Is for the Gov
ernment te establish all these men en the
Government land In the West, and make
them tillers of the soil, the Government te
appropriate sufficient money te start them,
simply leasing te them the land, which. If
they fall te develop It, Is te be turned back:
l the Government. This would care, I am
sure, for a large part et the present unem
ployed army.
My .'mprcsslen Is that the Government of
fered very liberal terms, In the distribu
tion et this land te the returned soldiers, but
at the time very few of them availed them
selves of the privilege. They might leek
differently at the preposition today, it Is
also my impression that after a certain pe
riod the Government relinquished Its liber
ality te the soldiers, nnd today they come
Inte possesien of this land under the same
rights that any ether citizens have.
Placing men en this unoccupied land to te
duy would mean much te the development of
our country, it would give these present
unemployed soldiers n means of earning a
livelihood and take at least that number out
of the unemployed class. Ilesldes. It would
help materially te reduce the present large
amount of unoccupied land.
The way It should be dene would be te
get a list of all these cx-scrvlce men who
would be willing te take and develop a cer
tain amount of this unoccupied land. Portion
this land among them, giving them the most
desirable aectlens of It. Then the Govern
ment should advance te these men sufficient
money te stock the place and buy Imple
ments with which te cultivate It. It would
net requlre a great amount of money, and
It could be merely given as a lean, with a
small amount or no Interest. We have
leaned foreign governments vast sums and
we are receiving no Interest up te the pres
ent time, and there Is a likelihood of our
neter getting any Interest, This method
would at least tike out of the unemployment
Hjtt the cx-servlce men who are really de
sirous of helping themselves.

Until the tempter came te Nell:
He dizzied her and then she felt.
In gilded hallo 'raid wealth she dwells.
Hew her heart aches her sad face tells.
She fain would smile, leek bright and gay,
Hut conscience steals her peace away.
Hut when the ilattered cast aside
My ftllen and dishonored bride,
I'll clese her eves, Inedeath ferghe.
Though In my heart her name shall live.
