The Shipping Bill Failure
and The Presidents Prestige
(From the New York Tribune.)

President Wilson bowed to defeat
with what grace he could when he
allowed the latest version Of the ship
purchase bill to go 10 its death in
conference committee. The confer
enco committee is not to make a re-
port before February q and no re-
port which II may make is likely to
be acted upon before noon of March
T. The President yielded even fur
ther TO the pressure Of public opin-
ion when he announced that he would
not call an extra session OF Congress
no matter what the fate Of the ship
purchase bill might be.
Much water has run through the
millrace since Mr.. Wilson in his Jack
son Day speech at indianapolis
charged the Republican Senators who
were fighting the ship purchase
scheme with defying the will of the
country. He admits now by his sur
render that the opposition I'm the
Senate was right and that il was he
himself who was out OF touch with
popular opinion. IL he had not lost
his self-confidence as reader of the
public mind he would have held Con
gress TO its work after March 4. Just
as he refused to permit Congress
TO take a recess so long as the cur
rency bill remained unacted upon.
He is unequal any longer to the task
Of forcing Congress to do his will.
because Congress knows as well as
he does that his prestige as a leader
has been shattered.
There was never anything substan-
tial behind the ship purchase bill but
Mr.. Wilson's Obstinacy. The emor
gency which he thought he was 60
ing TO meet through the device of a

But there are many other and bet
ter reasons. The principal one is
that business wants and is entitled to
a rest. There has been little bat bus
mess agitation for the last few years.
The really constructive measures be-
fore Congress have been ignored.
Rural credits would have furnish
ed real relief to the farmers of the
country. The enactment Of the water
power bill unanimously reported by
the Senate committee on commerce
would have resulted in an era Of de-
yelopment in tine South and West,
but this bill was also sidetracked.
Even the administration must re-
alize that the fight for the shipping
bill has been lost II there were any
hope Of its revival. the individual win
that gave it birth might seek to
breathe life into it at an extra ses-
sion. but since that result is admit
tedly hopeless, those in authority
might just as well gain what credit
they may from a decision to give
business a rest.

The Two War Zone Notices
lFrpm he New York SUM

Representative Bartholdt of Mis-
souri,. with fragrant disregard of the
Presidents warning TO officers of the
government to observe neutrality,
continues to use his official position
In the interests of Germany as a bel
ligerent. From his place on the floor
of the House Mr.. BarthOldt
assailed the United States because il
had not protested against the act Of
England in declaring the North Sea
a "war zone" when Germany did
the same thing" he said, "we des-
patched a stiff note to Berlin" The
member from st. Louis was either
presuming upon the ignorance Of his
colleagues and the country or he has
made no comparison of the announ-
cement of the British Admiralty on
November . with that of the German
Admiralty on February 4. Any fair
minded man may see that there was
wide difference I'm the British ana
German manner and methods.
We have the British text before us.
II begins by stating that during the
last week the Germans have scatter
ed mines indscriminateiy in the open
sea on the main route from America
TO Liverpool via the north Of Ire
land" Merchant ships had already
been blown up; the White Star liner
Olympic had had a narrow escape.
The Admiralty went on to say:
I'm these circumstances. having re-
gard to the great interests entrusted
to the British navy. 20 the safety OF
peaceful commerce on the high seas
and to the maintenance within the
limits Of international law Of trade
between neutral countries, the Ad-
miralty feel it necessary to adopt ex-
ceptional measures appropriate TO
the novel conditions under which this
war is being waged."
Notice was then given that "the
whole Of the North Sea must be con-
sidored military area Noutrals
were warned that "all ships passing
a line drawn from the northern point
of the Hobrides through the Farce

Editorial Opinion
GOOD NEWS AT LAST!

From the New York Sun.
The commander in chief of the Six
ty-third Congress has been gracious
ly pleased to permit that body to con-
slider and pass the regular appropria-
tion bills. instead Of giving its days
and nights to the ship purchase gull
lery. Consequently. the Sixty-fourth
Congress will not have TO be called
in special session.
Good news at last! The very first
good news sped from Washington
during the constant harrying OF busi-
ness by the long Congress. The coun~
try has long been sick and tired Of
the Cab House and a dropsy of stat
utes. American producers Of any
thing but wind have yearned and
yearn unspeakably for the end Of thi .
parliament of euckOos.
Here's to IL noon, March 4, 1915:
Fly swiftly around, ye wheels OF
Time.
And bring the welcome day!"
A respite from rant, a chance for
business to take breath and brace up.
And even from the scholastic point
of view. what need is there of an
extra session? Isn't Congress in per-
manent session at the White House?

Berlin dispatches call the reply OF
Germany to the protest Of the Uniteo
States against the terms Of the Ger

February especially friendly in
tone because the same spirit Of
good will and friendship" that ami
mated the communication Of the
United SWtes is professed in the
opening paragraph
The United States is taken 10 task
in terms of angry resentment for al
lowing the expectation of war ma
terials TO the Allies. while at the
same time II is berated for not assert
ing its neutral rights against Great
Britain. The spirit of those who are
not with us" pervades this extraor-
binary passage. Worse follows. Take

sponsibility il neutral merchant ships
