A PARABLE OF TWO VEIL
Giles.

A crowd is gathered waiting to
cross the congested street at the
Marshall Field corner on State
street. A bearded Jewish rag ped
dler turns in at the Washington
street side shouting as he tries to
make an opening to go north on
State street. His difficult handling
of the English language makes all
eyes turn to him as with strained
features he jerks on his "p1ug' to
advance. He gets through as the
crowd mutters under it's breath be-
cause it has been pushed back to the
curbstone by the Ghetto driver, and
in the opening made by him, lux
urlous limousine, moving stealthily
along the ground, follows and finds
an easy passage. Seated in the linn
CUISINE are two fair co-re1igionists,
their Oriental features only empha-
sized by the latest fashions The
penetrating ones in the crowd COM
pare notes, and, if we mistake not,
dismiss from their minds the poor
ragman who has saved enough to
own an emaciated horse and di-
lapidated wagon and think long and
ominously about the air of elegance
that follows in his wake. The Jew
ish eye and heart see further, as
usual. They see a rugged, strug
Cling generation opening the way
for one scarcely fit to follow. They
wonder if the sacrifice was worth

one Of the shortest messages
ever sent to congress President
Wilson urges that early action
be taken to complete his pro-
gram of settlement and regulation"
recommended at the last session. The
message in full is as follows:
Gentlemen of the Congress:
In fulfilling at this time the duty
laid upon me by the constitution Of
communicating to you from time 70
time information Of the state Of the
Union and recommending to your con-
sideration such legislative measures as
may be judged necessary and expedi-
ent / shall continue the practice, which
/ hope has been acceptable to you, of
leaving to the reports Of the several
heads Of the executive departments
the elaboration of the detailed needs
Of the public service and confine my
self to those matters of more general
public policy with which it seems nee
essary and feasible to deal at the pres
ent session Of the congress.
] realize the limitations of time I'M
der which you will necessarily act at
this session and shall make my sug-
geStions as few as possible. But there
were some things left undone at the
last session which there will now be
time to complete and which it seems
necessary in the interest Of the public
to do at once

THE MESSAGE.

On page four Of this paper appears
the message delivered by President
Wilson to congress on Tuesday. 1t is
less than three columns in length. 1t
is like all the Wilson messages: plain,
short, and to the point. 1t asks for
more governmental control over rail
ways and their operation; for greater
freedom Of combination for those en-
gagged in promoting foreign commerce;
for an amendment to the organic law
Of Porto Rico; and for the passage OF
the bill to regulate the expenditure Of
money in elections. This administra-
ton has been so fruitful of good results
that the country will look hopefully
forward to the accomplishment of the
desirable achievements outlined in the
pnpCS3Op

THE LWAUkEE JOURNAL.

A very interesting newspaper of wide
circulation and an able and good news
paper, too, is The Milwaukee Journal.
1t prints the big things in current news;
and explains them in masterful manner.
The Sunday Journal is the browning
issue of the week, 1t is truly 1.-the Sun
day newspaper of the matchless news
service" 1t is markedly superior to
any Sunday newspaper published in
Chicago or any where else outside of
New York 1t is indeed great news
paper.
While the makers of The Milwaukee
Journal can be truly said to walk with
the kings Of newspaperdom, they have
not lost the common touch. That is
what makes their newspaper so in
tensely interesting to all, and so helpful
to all. 1t is absolutely independent;
with a great gift of interpreting in
spirit of true democracy new issues as
they arise; and with the daring alac-
rity to take the right side of great
cause at the right time. Because of
these qualities it has attained leader
ship.
The Journal stands in the foremost
rank of newspapers supporting Presi-
dent Wilson. In the campaign lately
closed, while some other great indie
pendent newspapers which came
around all right in the end were max
ing virtue of open mindedness, The
Journal was striking hard blows at the
combined forces Of reaction and dis

Sharper than a serpents tooth is the
ungrateful editor of The American
Economist, who blames Charles E..
Hughes and his campaign managers for
not waging their whole campaign upon
the protective tariff issue. Judge
Hughes is man of great mentality,
even if he did appear to a disadvantage
in the campaign, 1t must have been
distasteful to him to talk protective
tariff nonsense at all, let alone making
it the burden of his song.

uef WHICH you Will necessarily ACT dL
this session and shall make my sug-
gestions as few as possible. But there
were some things left undOne at the
last session which there will now be
time to complete and which it seems
necessary in the interest Of the public
to do at once
The Railroad Problem.
In the first place, it seems to me i'm
peratively necessary that the earliest
possible consideration and action
should be accorded the remaining
measures Of the program Of settlement
and regulation which | had occasion to
recommend to you at the close Of your
last session in view Of the public dan
gers disclosed by the unaccOmmOdated
difficulties which then existed and
which still unhappily continue to ex-
list between the railroads Of the coun-
try and their locomotive engineers,
conductors and trainmen.
I then recommended:
First, immediate provision for the
ganization of the interstate commerce
commission along the lines embodied
in the bill recently passed by the house
of representatives and now awaiting
action by the senate in order that the
commission may be enabled to deal
with the many great and various du-
ties now devOlving upon 1t with a
prOmptneSS and thOrOughneSS which
are, with it's present constitution and
means of action, practically impossible.
Second, the establishment of an eight
hour day as the legal basis alike Of
work and of wages in the employment
of all railway employees who are &C
tually engaged in the work Of Operat-
ing trains in Interstate transportation.
Third. the authorization Of the APP
pointment by the president Of small
body of men to observe the actual re-
suits in experience of the adoption Of
the eight hour day in railway Transport
tation alike for the men and for the
railroads.
Fourth explicit approval by the con-
terstate commerce commission of an
increase Of freight rates to meet such
additional expenditures by the rail
roads as may have been rendered nee
essary by the adoption Of the eight
hour day and which have not been off
set by administrative establishments
and economies, should the facts dis
closed Justify the increase.
Fifth, an amendment of the existing
federal statute which provides for the
mediation, Cancellation and arbitra ton
of such controversies as the present by
adding to it a provision that, in case
the methods of accommodation now
provided for should fail a full public
investigation Of the merits Of every
such dispute shall be instituted and
completed before strike or lockout
may lawfully be attempted.
