ITNPAIJ) MANGLED SOLDIERS
DESTITUTE
When the young manhood of the
nation was taken Into the army in
1917 .and 1918 to engage In the
stupendous world war then raging,
parents consoled themselves with
the thought that their dear sons
would receive the lasting gratitude
of their government and country
and that nothing would be too good
for them on their return borne.
Such a thought appeared so eminent¬
ly Justified that everybody seemed
to concur In it.
But the stupendous war was
fought to a successful conclusion
through the valor and sacrifices of
our own boys. Instead of returning
the boys to the homes where they
are needed and when a welcome so
cordial awaits them the national ad¬
ministration Is holding them over¬
seas and in camps in this country in
exasperating idleness while the
President delays the making of
peace In the hope of being able to
surrender the Independence of the
United States to the league of alien
nations which he is trying to form.
Meanwhile the boys who left their
homes In the bloom of youth and
the vigor of perfect young manhood
hut have lost limbs or been physi¬
cally mangled and ruined in the
service of their country cannot draw
from the government the meagre
pay that is due them and are ctonse
qnently in destitute circumstances.
The following news item which ap¬
peared in The Washington Herald,
March 26, is full of significance in
this connection:
UNPAID MAIMED SOLDIERS SELL
“LEAGUE STAMPS"
Wounded Men in Uniform, Some
Badly Crippled, Declare They
Could Not Get Money Duo
from War Department.
Wounded soldiers in uniform
made their appearance on the
streets of Washington yesterday as
active propagandists for tho league
of nations. They sold specially de¬
signed stamps boosting the league,
which are understood to have been
issued by the League to Enforce
Peace.
The soldiers, many of whom are
badly crippled, explained to purchas¬
ers that they had been unable to
collect from the War Department
the money due them and were
forced to sell tho stamps as a moans
b( obtaining a livelihood.
Tho stamps are intended to bo
udett "stickers” on letters and
are about the size of special deliv¬
ery stamps. They aTe printed in yel¬
low and hear a figure of Victory,
with the following inscription:
“And May
The League of Nation#
Prove a barrier to war
And sccuro for tho world
A lasting Peace."
Across the bottom of tho stamp is
printed this caption:
“In support of the League of
Nations.”
The wounded men said they wore
gives the stamps free of charge and
were permitted to keep all the
money they took in. They sold the
stamps at the rate of $1 a hundred.
A sheet of tho stamps was taken
to the office of Senator Knox, of
Pennsylvania, by a woman who pur¬
chased them from a soldier on
crutches. Bhe expressed , great in
dignatlon over the plight of the
wounded men in being compelled to
adopt such a method of making a
living when money was duo them
from the War Department. She be¬
sought the Senator to cause an inves¬
tigation to he made, not only of
the reasons for nonpayment of the
men, hut also of the organization
which made use of the wounded sol¬
diers for such a purpose.
It was said at the War Depart¬
ment that no sanction had been giv¬
en for tho employment of the wound
ed men to sell tho stamps.—The
Yellow Jacket.
TOM WATSON
When I land In homo from the
battle front, tired and worn out.
about the first thing I do is to look
for a copy of The Sentinel, Tom
Watson’s new paper, You aro sure
to get a message fresh and strong
from the good old south where the
people have some real convictions on
the papal question. Of course there
are plenty of cowards, and trimmers
and time servers in the south as In
all other parts of fhe country, but
on every moral and economic queB
tion that affects the common good
they are far ahead of the north. I
think I know because I campaign ex¬
tensively in both sections of the
country, and havo a chance to make
comparisons. No man of ability has
sacrificed more and suffered mord
for a good cause than Tom Watson.
While some others have been piling
up money in this movement he has
worked unselfishly sacrificing more
and more for the common good. Had
he prostituted his talents as has
Arthur Brisbane he Could today be
earning the highest salary ever paid
a Journalist in America, for he is
by far a clearer thinker and more
forceful writer than Brisbane. Brls
bane prostituted' his talents in the
interest of rotten politics while
Watson remained loyal to his Ideals
and consecrated his talents to the
service of humanity. It seems that
with Mr. Watson, as with others,
troubie comes in bunches as he lost
both his son and daughter through
death, during the past eighteen
months, and suffered the suppression
of his papers through an over-dose
of Wilson democracy. The Weekly
Jeffersonian and Watson’s Maga¬
zine were very dear to the editor as
they were the mouth pieces through
which he talked to the masses, In¬
cluding the old guard who followed
him in the nineties when he was
candidate for president of the United
States. Through these papers he
dealt the papal hierarchy telling
blows and advocated such measures
aB he felt was for the welfare of
humanity and the good of the Oim
try. Then the war came and he ad
vocated principles In which ninety
per cent, of the people believed, but
was not in harmony with the poli¬
cies of the powers that be, and a
Romanized administration barred
his papers from the mails. It is my
opinion that these publications were
barred from the malls because they
told the truth about the papal hler
archy, and for no other reason.
Senator Lafollette said Just as much
or more against the government’s
war policies, bnt his magazine was
not shut out from the mails. Wm.
Hale Thompson, mayor of Chicago
opposed Just as strongly as did Mr.
Watson the war policies of the ad¬
ministration, but his paper was not
suppressed. Then why did the ad¬
ministration go down south and
pick out the Watson publications for
slaughter? Simply because these
papers were unmasking the treason
able schemes of the Roman Catholic
(thureli. This is the simple reason
and there was no other reason un¬
der heaven.
Then Mr. Watson run for Con
gress in the late election. I recent
ly talked with many people in his
district, and the common people all
say he was honestly elected, hut
that the rotten machine politicians
counted him out. They committed
this unspeakable outrage against the
interest of the people, and the right
of Mr. Watson, then burned the bal¬
lot boxes to cover the evidence of
their crimes. And this is free gov
ernmejit as wo have it in this coun
try today under tho rule of our
Romanized politicians.
Then Mr. Watson became tho con¬
tributing editor of The Sentinel,
published at Harlem, Ga. He never
in all his life wrote such articles as
he is today writing eadh week in
this paper. It costs you two dollars
per year, and you get your money’s
worth every month. You can get It
In clubs of five at the rate of $1.50
per year. The only hope the people
have Is in the radical press and this
great paper should have the unsel¬
fish support of the people In every
state of the’ Union.—The Rail Split

THE PAPAL PROGRAM.
1. To Effect acceptance of the
popes’ claim that they stand in the
place of God Almighty on this
earth.
2. To the end that popes may
rnle the earth by “divine right.’’
3. To set up schools to teach
their claim and cause its acceptance.
4. To discredit and destroy all
such schools and teaching as dis¬
pute that claim.
5. To mold public opinion by
any means to the same end of se¬
curing self-recognition.
6. To psychologize human
thought by appeal to human feeling
through religious sentiment.
7. To confuse religious feeling
with political actions to the end of
securing political control.
8. To use power onco secured as
a means of acquiring the greater
power of authority and wealth.
9. To approve all that conforms
to papal wishes, and disapprove all
that opposes those wishes in terms
of morality and religion because of
their mystic influence.
10. To gradually introduce the
principles of his pope-made canon
law in place of national laws.
11. To re-lnstate ecclesiastical
courts as a means of applying can-<
on law and defying state law.
12. To define education, matri¬
mony, and the like so as to assert
and effect a monopoly of their
regulation.
13. To gain adherents by per¬
suasion and occult trickery until
able to marshal such adherents for
the use of force.
14. To discourage free press,
free speech and free discussion as
the Initial discouragement of all
personal freedom.
15. To take every advantage of
democracy's Imperfections as an ex¬
cuse for autocratic aggressions.

Impossible—did you say? We
also think that it is Impossible, be
case no world empire has ever last¬

many an ambitious individual came
near to conquering the earth by the
cruder means used In earlier times.
Remember that when you are up
against the papal system you are
not dealing with an Alexander or a
Napoleon. You are now dealing with
a self-perpetuating corporation that
has survived defeat after defeat for
sixteen centuries.
Do you appreciate the meaning of
that stupendous fact?
Popery will still cumber the earth
and Impede human progress sixteen
centuries hence unless the human
family uses the brains with which
mankind is endowed for self pro¬
tection.
Rome Is forever the same (in
purpose, though not otherwise) and
its papal directory is matching wit
against wit for ultimate supremacy
without consideration of time or
cost to civilization. If so, what are
you going to do about it —Ex.
