YOUNG SENATORS SEE
CHANGE TO WIN NOW
FilibuserS Can Safely Hold Up Appropriation and
Other Bills and Let Daylight IN on
Old Customs
BY 7. c. WELLIVFP

AS a result IF the fght between the
Senate organization and the insurgent
Republicans, the present session Of Con
gress may end with about half ina
appropriation bnls still pending. gad
with the extra session under the neaes-
sity Of acting on them before June 90
There is pending, down under the sur
face, a fight for control OF the pol
icies Of he Senate which thre items
now to be carried to an extreme nevgr
before known. The Senate insurgents
feel that they have found exactly the
right opportunity 20 make themselves
felt In the past such a thing as fill
clustering against an appropriation
measure has been unknown, unless, as
in the case Of the famous one-man
flibUster of Senator Carter against the
river and harDOr bill, it IS frankly de-
sired to kin the measure.
But today the situation is different.
The insUrgent Republicans are numer-
Gus and determined enough to prevent
passage Of the appropriation bills. They
figure that they are. safe in doing IL,
because Congress is going to meet In
extra session March 10. and there would
then be ample time before the end Of
the fiscal year to enact the measures.
No Extra Session.
If it would necessitate the expense Of
an extra session. talking the appro-
pristion bills past noon of March 4
would be ruinoUs policy. because the
men responsible for il would be charged
with imposing on the country the big
burden Of the extra session. But that
charge cannot be made this time The
extra session is going TO be held: the
expense of It must be incurred. There
is no business awaiting it except re-
vision of the tarih, which means that
for the opening weeks Congress viii
be sitting on its thumb and whistIing
for time. In the House it is planned
to make no committee appointments
except Ways and Means. in order to
avoic getting mixed up with general
legislation
50 the proposition of the fnsurgeut
Senators 3 merely to force the extra
session to do some real work. to con
slider the appropriation measures in tead
of loaf
BY this plan they would accomplish
two things. They would get opportun-
ity TO air the appropriation measures
thoroughly, to give hem such thorough
consideration as they have not had in
years. and, on the other hand. they
would attract the country's attention
to their fight against the present rules

ItaIys Calamity.

The heart of Christendom Is
moved with sympathy and pity
by the heartrending stories athat
are coming from the land recent
ly devastated by earthquake and
tidal wave, and all civilized
nations are hurrying their ships
to the scene laden with food.
clothing and medicines for the
untold thousands who escaped
with their lives
As the extent of the horror
becomes more definitely known
it increases in magnitude, instead
of diminishing, as is usual in such
cases. It is already well es-
tablished that at least 2OO,0W
lives were lost-and even this
may be increased. In some
towns and cities fire followed the
quake and many were burned 70
death.
Occasional schocks are still felt
in some places. Mt. Aetna ana
other volcanic mountains threat
en- eruption, and scientists
prophecy still greater destruc'
ton.
