HASTE TO GET OUT THEIR RE

Washington. d. c.. Dee. 19-Mcm-
bcrS Of the cabinet have been working
off their annual reports Of recent days.
These have carried numerous suggestions
for legislation. In oldcn times it was
prOvcrbial that the re concentrations of
cabinet officials to congress received
Scant attention. Indeed it has happened
more than once within the last decade
that an annual appropriation bill for
a given department was framed and re
ported before the cabinet official had
gotten his report to the public. The
PoStofficc pprOpriation bill for one or
two years during Mr.. Ilitchcock'S en-
cumbency anticipated his report. This
year most of the cabinet are getting
their annual reports out early. which
has some virtue. Secretary of War Gar
riSon has just gotten into the ncwpSa-
pcrS with his annual report and beaten
the House Military Affairs Comiittcc
with the annual army appropriation
bill by il few days.
But. apart from their reports. Cab
met officials have opportunities for get
'i"S 'h'ii NISNS DVloIt lHC
mitteeS. 1t is the custom of the Naval
Affairs Committee to call the Secretary
Of the Navy Committee and the Sccre
tary Of War. Not only are the views of
cabinet members as to legislation solc
tied but frequently their departmental
Subordinates are summoned for exam
ination and final ilegiSlation depends
not Il little upon what they say
Postmaster General BurlcsOn's annu-
al report promises to have interesting
matter. Congress is much on the qui
vivc az to government ownership of telc
graph and telephone lines. Mr.. Burlc
son favors purchasing long distance
telephone lines pretty soon and it is be
lievcd at the Capitol Il step in that dir
ection will be taken at this session of
Congress. Mr.. BurlesOn has been a very
progressive and business like PoStmast-
er General and is seeking quite lot of
legislation for the benefit of his depart
mcnt. AS he was in Congress many wears
and served long as Il member Of the big
appropriations committee he knows how
to keep in touch with the House. Area

ditOrial from the Galveston News Dec

AT least two stockholders of the Fris-
90 have obtained leave to file suit
against directors Of that corporation to
recover the profits which those directors
made by selling To the Frisco odds and
ends of railroads which they had either
built or bought These prospective suits
are based, we suppose. on that principle
Of law or equity which holds that fl
duciary agent is personally accountable
for any transaction which works to his
own profit and the loss Of his prnci-
pals. 1t has been admitted. to make Il sin
Gle example out of several that are avail
able that directors of the Frisco profit
ed from the sale Of the Brownsville line
to the Frisco, and that furthermore, the
Frisco ownership of the Brownsville line
was one Of the causes of its bankruptcy
1t that is 50. then it would be hard to
dodge the conclusion that these dircc
tors of the Frisco are fairly caught with
in the coils of the legal principle which
is harmonious with the most elemental
sense of ethics. If the profits of these
gentlemen were the losses of the com
pany. then surelye no one will have the
hardihood to deny that they ought to
be made to diSgourge these profits"
