with this machine, could make a con-
tinuous fight of 300 miles. carrying two
passengers, and this would enable him
to cross the ocean with stops at lceiano
and Greenland. each fight consuming
about seven hours. which is at the rate
of about 127 miles an hour. This is only
slightly in excess of the fastest flight re-
corded during the past year. The possi-
blities of such flying are at once ap-
parent. With time for stops and repairs.
it would be possible, perhaps, to pass
from England to the North American
continent. say Newfoundland or Labra-
dor. in perhaps two days, barring serious
breaks. Whether there is any practical
advantage in such a flight remains fof
development, yet it cannot be denied
that a demonstration of the feasibility
of human transport from England to
America in forty-eight hours is potential
of great possibilities in the near future
The stage Of the large aeropiane seems
to be at hand, and when opce such
machine, capable of carrying a number
of persons at high speed over long dis
tances, is evolved, the problem of human
fight may be said to have been definitely

The TRUST MESSAGE.

From the Pittsburgh Gazette Times.
In other words, as far as Mr. Wilson
is concerned, If the Money Devil insists
on eating it must eat out of his hand.
From the Rochester Post Express.
The President has eased his mind of
a great load-that much must be con-
ceded.
From the Jacksonville Times Union.
We hereby remind those who think the
day of miracles has passed that President
Wilson'S latest message pleased demo-
Gratis and republicans alike.
From the Harrisburg Telegraph.
We pause in wonderment as to what
the colonel will say when he learns that
some of his followers in Congress have
approved President Wilson's trust mes
sage.
From the Wilmington (Del.) News.
When the President entered Congress
to read the message he was received
with a ''vociferous salute" Had Mr..
Bryan appeared we presume it would
have been chautauqua salute.
From the Baltimore Sun.
You can't expect Big Business to take
it's medicine like it was vanilla soda
water.
From the Chicago Evening Post.
There is magic in the way President
Wilson makes d big stick look like an
olive branch.

Household Efficiency and Economy.

Last nights conference on the subject
of the cost of living in this city was in
spred by the belief'that if the consumers
and the producers of foodstuffs can be
brought closer together each will benefit
There is d field here for constructive
work along lines of practical conserva-
ton. The Housekeepers' Alliance, which
Is heading the movement, is aiming to
promote efficiency in the household, and
the highest efficiency is gained through
cooperation. Just how far the plan for
direct dealings between the producers
and the consumers can go must be de-
termined through experience, and the ex-
periments which are proposed will be
watched with interest If by cutting out
one profit the farmers can supply their
customers directly at lower prices than
have heretofore been paid, the advantage
will lie almost entirely with the con-
sumers. II the two factors get together
on the basis of splitting of the middle
mans profit. there will be some advan-
tage to both. The Iousekeepers' Alli-
ance also has profitable field of opera
ton in the teaching of economy in tho
kitchen and in the establishment of
proper principles of marketing. House
keeping is not the carefully studied work
il formerly was. So much is left to
servants care and supervision that it has
become in a great many cases necessary
10 train girls in domestic science in the
schools. for lack of opportunity. or desire
TO give them home instruction. True
efficiency calls for the best utilization OF
all the human agencies as well as the
most economical provisioning.

Sullivan and the Senate.

Roger Sullivan announces for the Sen
whatever may be thought of his head.
Evidently the man has been touched by
the peace talk now so prevalent, and
desires to contribute his share. small
though it be, toward bringing about in
our domestic affairs an era of good
feeling Shall he be encouragedo Or
shall We see the Illinois electorate turn
deaf ear to his appeal for an oppor-
tunity to make his deeds square with
his words?
Mr.. sullivan is boss. and makes no
denial of the fact He has been posted as
such by many prominent men. in his own
party, and by all the prominent men in
the opposition party. He knows. too.
that at present the cry against bosses
is unusually resonant. Still. he offers
for Office and appeals for the fair and
unexcited judgment of his fellow citizens.
Determined that the anti-bosses shall
not down his voice in the praise of the
President, Mr. Sullivan speaks up in
trumpet tones himself for the new lead
er in the White House. close student
of history, he pronounces Mr.. Wilson the
author of a program which is clearer.
closer to the ground. and contains less
hair-sp!itting than that conceived by any
body within fifty years. That period
includes the program of Abraham Lin
coin: Could an Illinoisian go further than
to put the author of the New Freedom
above the great emancipator?
And yet another point. Mr.. Bryan is
the premier of this administration. and
IN supporting Mr.. Wilson Mr.. Sullivan
will be supporting him. Love me, love
my premier. This calls for rot only light
but sweetness on Mr.. Sullivan's part. For
only a few years ago Mr. Bryan and
Mr.. Sullivan We're at daggers drawn, and
Mr.. Bryan. drawing upon a vigorous and
picturesque vocabulary. characterized Mr..
Sullivan in public speech as ''politi-
cal highwayman.' This evidently has
been forgiven. What Mr.. Sullivan now
desires is an. opportunity to work in
official harness with Mr.. Bryan in for
wardlng the policies Mr.. Wilson has in
hand.
1t is interesting to consider how much
attention Mr.. Sullivan and Mr.. Lewis
would command as colleagues in the
Senate They contrast strikingly. but
might supplement each other most adj
vantageously for their constituents. To
Mr.. Lewis might be allotted what is
called dress parade work. On field days.
when the orators We're out and in full
cry. Mr.. Lewis would be near the head
of the pack. For the quiet work done in
committee and therefore too little valued
by the masses Mr.. Sullivan would serve.
and would get a good share for Illinois
in the distribution of favors. AS a prac-
tical politician he understands that sort
of thing thoroughly.
Shall the senatorial team be Sullivan
and Lewis? Or shall We see the Wilson,
ties and the Bryanites cold to the warm
overtures of Mr.. Sullivan?
Evening star., 1914-01-25
Mr.. Wilson and 1916.

Whenever Mr. Wilson refers to the
Baltimore platform as the inspiration OF
his actions somebody bobs up with re-
minder about the plank relating to q
second term in the White House. and
complains of Mr.. Wilson's silence on the
subject But invariably the plank is
misquoted. 1t does not commit MIR Will
son against second term, and very
properlv he has not committed himself
Why should he do so, when he has just
set out on his journey. and so much OF
the road is before him?
The Baltimore platform was prepared
in haste, and by a rhetorcian. Mr.. Bryan
between turns on the stage in the con-
vention hall. presided over the commit
tee, and what he said went He had
made himself felt in town. and there
was expectation that he would name the
candidate. Why not. therefore. permit
him to write the creed.
So he wrote the creed and nominated
the candidate. Later, he changed his
mind about the candidate, and nominated
Mr. Wilson instead of Mr.. Clark. But
the creed would have answered in Mr..
Clark's case as it did in Mr.. Wilson'S.
AS for the second term question, as
many republicans as democrats want the
Constitution changed to suit the one
term proposition. But until the Consti-
tuition is changed to forbid second term,
either party will be at liberty to renomi-
nate man who has succeeded with his
presidential commission.
As matters stand, Mr.. Wilson is in a
comfortable, not to say commanding, po-
sition. He has started in to redeem the
platform upon which he was elected; and
the task is huge one. He cannot hope.
even with the best luck. to do it all at
up at the short session. Something must
go over until the next Congress.
Now, if the democrats control that body
it will be on the record. and the record
will be Mr.. Wilson's. Why, then. will he
not have his way with that body as he is
having it with the present one? And, If
he does, he will be in action as a joint
executive and legislative force at the
time of the holding of the next demo-
cratic national convention. What else
would such body do under such circum-
stances but put its best foot foremost,
unless expressly forbidden TO do so?
On the other hand. if by that time there
is strong Indication of change of pub
lie sentiment and return of the repub-
licans to power. what democrat OF presi-
Dental size will not share in Mr.. VIII
sons discontinue? Mr.. Marshall and Mr..
Bryan are members of the administra-
ton, while Mr.. Clark and Mr.. Underwood
are associating themselves with the CON
gressonal program which Mr.. Wilson IS
both preparing and putting through.
Win or lose meanwhile, Mr.. Wilson will
be the most prominent man in his party
in 1916, and in either case the logical man
for its leadership that year.
