MUCH TO Be DONE.
Important Matters viii Come
Before Congress.
Correcting Mistakes In Past les's'a
ton viii Be One of the Most Press
ing Duties-ouestion OF Taxa
tion Also Of Moment.

Repairing the mistakes of the past
will be the chief obligation OF congress
at the session which begins IN Decem,
ber. While the last congress enacted
the tariff bill, the banking and cur
rency bill and many other Important
measures, the remedial Legislation
which is on the cards for the next ses'
sion really is of the utmost impor'
tance, since 1t involves the safety as
well as the prosperity OF the nation
and the more businesslike adjustment
of legislation hastily enacted in the
past
In addition to putting the nation IN
condition of military preparedness,
congress also must adopt a program
for financial and business prepared
ness. Revenues must be increased TO
meet the deficit In the treasury and to
take care of the ordinary expenses OF
the government. and, In addition, a
bond issue must be arranged to take
care of increases in the army and
navy.
Taxation already has reached a
point where 1t is becoming a menace.
Statesmen will be required to enforce
economy and to evolve the least bur
densome way of financing the needs
of the government. Congress also
must look forward to the time when
the European war will end and when
the European mills and factories will
resume their operations and attempt
to recoup their losses by invading the
American and South American mar
kets.
But the chief duty of congress will
be to repair the mistakes of hastily
considered legislation in the past. For
the welfare Of all the people, the next
congress should try to look ahead and
plan carefully over a number of years,
SO as to avoid the mistakes of prece-
ding sessions which II is now forced
to correct.
