Congress has already made an appropriation looking to the survey of the land situation in the United States and we will have a report for congress during the winter upon this matter. It appears now that there are at least 200,000,000 acres of land in the United States that can be reclaimed. To reclaim these acres will obviate all difficulty whatever as to the reabsorption of our army on its return. The men who reclaim the land will own the farms. The government will lend them money with which to get on their feet, and help them to a farmer's education if necessary. We will break the back of this ruinous movement toward the cities. So out of this war will come many good things, and once again the American spirit of gratitude for sacrifice, appreciation of service rendered, will be revealed.

War Fervor Ends Wrangle.
CHICAGO, Sept. 26.—A battle which threatened to disrupt the American Bankers' association ended today, after a noisy and turbulent session of the convention, when Charles A. Hinsch, president of the organization, read a telegram which told of the beginning of another great French-American drive on the western front in France. The tumult of the factional contest immediately subsided. The leader of the Jackie band called for "Over There" and the crowd stood and thundered the words.

The demonstration had subsided, and could remember what the crowd had been about.
