SNSS u NiiS i
tn president has been notified that 10
ment owned merchant marine bill, con.
gress will not be able to adjourn before
the November elections. This means that
the ship subsidies are improving thei1
stranglehold on a democratic congress
and that 1t will take a long light to shake
them off.
This being the situation, why a surren-
der rather than a fight?
1t is now two months since the war
tied up so much shipping on which tho
foreign trade Of the United States de-
ponds. 1t is two months since new and
most promising routes for trade began to
open for this country. without any ship
ping to take them up. What has private
capital done in this time to seize so greaf
an opportunity? How many ships has IL
bought or started to buy and transfer to
the American flag? How many ships han
1t contracted to have builtf
The answer Is that it has lone nothing.
1t is buying no ships. It Ia building no
ships. Aside from the action of one or
Two large concerns in transferring their
ships from the British to the American
flag, which has not increased our ocean
transportation facilities by a single ton,
this private capital has done nothing to
overcome the great emergency or meet the
great opportunity. 1t is content with pre-
venting the government from doing any
thing, lest old subsidy lose the ADVANTAGE
OF this emergency and opportunity.
Crowding forward the government
owned marine bill will at least serve to
drive these dogs out Of the manEer. II
may even serve to set them at work after
being driven out.

Interesting features Of the session
were controversies in the Senate over
several of the presidents appointments.
The nomination Of H. NJ. Pindell, of
Peoria to be ambassador to Russia led
to a prolonged inquiry by the Senate
committee on foreign relations. The
nomination was once Withdrawn. Mr..
Pindell was latter renamed and vas
ordered confirmed by the Senate, fol-
lowing which MI. Pindell asked the
president to withdraw his name. The
nomination of Thomas D. Jones, of hi
cago, director of the International Har-
yester company as a member Of the
federal reserve board, precipitated a
struggle in the Senate committee on
banking and currency. In the midst of
the fight Mr.. Jones requested the pres
ident to withdraw his name. The
nomination Of Paul M, Warburg of New

board, also stirred up q controversy,
Mr.. Warburg once refusing to appear
before the banking md currency COM

Trouble With Our City Government,

The basic difficulty, as I conceive It. In
mat we made the mistake OF fashioning
the forms of our city government upon
the governments of the nation and ths
states; and that, having thus set up a
system OF administrative machinery who'll
~ unsu1ted to it's purposes, we proceeded,
logically perhaps, to run our cities nod
with reference to their own needs of BUST
ness interests. but upon the issues Of ma
t1onal politics. The fact the the admins
tration Of a city has nothing whatever to
do with. divisions Of opinion upon lines q
national policy has but recently occurred
TO US. and Is still strange doctrine in many
parts OF the land. Thus-to cite an In
stance that sums up the system iself-the
question of the choice OF q city commits

would be, determined according to views
held by the voters upon the tariff. or the
currency, or the proper method Of regu-
latlng the trusts; and the socalled com
missioner when SO appointed, might BIO
depended upon to turn both contracts and
su coordinate appointments over to those
who had made him politically possible.
When we consider such q situation re-
fectively, 1t seems difficult to conceive OF
anything more ridiculous. And still, the
American people, who pride themselves
upon their k%eenness in business and trade,
nave Tor generations tolerated q system OF
handling the purely business interests Of
their communities that sets aside the firss
principles Of business, and has rolled up
an appalling bill OF waste in every part o.
the land,

MUUERM WAR is MERClFUL
MODERN WAR is MERcIFUL
Under Existing Conditions the Wound
cd Are Given a Fair Chance
TO Recover Health.

A general impression Is that with
powerful weapons Of great precision
greater loss OF life and greater pain
are caused. The view is almost Ger.
tainly inaccurate. The modern bull
Lot, says the Scotsman, unless it Is OF
the soft-nosed type, is on the whole
nerciful, and either kills outright or
gives Its victim a fair chance OF re-
oovery. 1t does not, as q rule, mutt
late.
The ambulance corps was practical
~ unknown so years ago, and not
only is aid brought more rapidly to
the wounded, but 1t is far more ef-
fective than in the pre-Lister days.
Rapidly of conveyance has increased
beyond all comparison. In the pres
Snt war 1t Is true to say that in many
cases men have been lying in q Brit
ash hospital within "a hours Of re-
ceiving their wounds. If the risk of
being hit is greater, the chances OF
recovery from injury have been I'M
mensely increased.
