The French government strongly opposes removal of ' American soldier dead to this country for a period of at least three year No resentment should be felt because of this attitude. The disinterment and transportation of a large num ber of bodies might easily be a source oi serious epidemic . of disease in France, something which that country is in no condition to face. Transportation facilities are hopelessly insufficient for the needs of the living; their further congestion vvnuld work creat hardship. Tha French people have forgone having the bodies of rhpir own dead returned because it is felt that the sad dening effect upon the people would be unbearable. They M e a nation in deepest mourning as n is. Great Britain will not remove her dead. American "Fields of Honor" already are being es tablished in France. To these bodies of our soldiers are being taken, and the graves will be tended and recorded in everv instance with the utmost care. The personal sacrifice may be great: but if the great er good demands that,, for a time at least, no bodies be brought back to America, undoubtedly the sacrifice will he made with the same uncomplaining neroism wiucu in so many instances has made this war a notable one.

This would provide landings for the air traffic of many years in the future. It would cost $100,000,000, says Dr. Thomson. It would be worth much more than that. Air facilities, ' ouiiding space, added dockage space of some seven miles would far more than repay the cost of building the new city. "Nothing is impossible" might well be the motto of; the new century. To a citv which has tunnelled nnrW the Hudson and East Rivers in manv places and bridFed them in many others, a trifle like building a few miles of sea wan ana reclaiming tne land thus cut out of the harbor seems easy enough. w v - M f pisn 523 This motrnarlcah!e rnnedy .iui the ttam h to ul aaio. nUr afd krv t!v baweliopco. b p-jrrtr vmwahle, prudncms only ttitftily benehciftl rewht.

REFORMED MOVIES. Fiction writers used to dwell upon the idea of sinking New York into the sea by some Hunnish plot or Martian accident. 15ut it is no iiction writer, no ureamy visionary, who has.the latest idea of building Manhattan island two more miles into the sea. It is Dr. T. Kennard Thomson, a famous consulting engineer and an authority on pneu matic caissons, who wants to do this. The picture of Dr. Thomson's plan is in the July Pop ular Science Monthly. It shows an extension built on to The film reformers are rejoicing because two movie stars have decided to write and act their own film plays. The pictures are to contain a "moral as well as a story."' The first one is now being produced, and deals with divorce and its effects upon the children of the couple concerned. It is believed by people who 1 have deprecated the class of moving pictures generally produced that this marks the beginning of better things in the screen world. But does it, after all? There is great need of clean, wholesome, interesting moving pictures just as there is need of such books and such plays. But people who think the way to reform the screen is by presenting so unsavory and complex a prob lem as divorce are as far removed from the light as are the melodramatists. The Way to counteract the evil is by the positive methodmaking the things that are good attractive and interesting, so that people will become absorbed in them and have no time for evil. After all possible care has been exercised, the real crux of the matter is in the attitude of the" onlooker. And reforming the attitude of the onlooker must begin, like charity, at home. About three hundred and fifty editors will visit Salem tomorrow evening. They are on their way to Crater Lake, the greatest scenic wonder on the Western Contin ent, and since they are from all parts of the United States, will spread the fame of Oregon's beauty and resources rnrougnout an tne land. RIPPLING RHYMES By Walt Mason MISFITS. New York burglars rifled three office safes and only got $:50.
