DISCUSSED POINT WITH BORAH.

On this point he and Senator Boran,
also a member Of the subcommittee.
had q considerable discussion. Mr..
Borah was doubtful whether a law
taking over the whole regulative au-
thority would pass muster with the
Supreme Court. lie feared that such
q measure would complicate matters
anew, and perhaps cause the Supreme
Court to change the attitude It has
taken in some OF the decisions hereto
fore rendered.
At this point in the constitutional de-
bate between the lawyers. Senator
Wadsworth and Senator Lodge went to
bat. Neither OF them claimed TO be a
great constitutional lawyer. but they
both knew exactly what they wanted.
and insisted on saying just what they
meant.
..If there's any chance that It will re-
quire a constitutional amendment. write

plank" insisted Senator Wordsworth.

Made Real Fight.
The real fight for the plank was made
ny Senators Sutherland. Lodge. Borah.
and wadsworth. They were all in ac-
cord about the general proposition: de-
tails were unimportapt to either Of
them. except that Wadsworfh and
Lodge were insistent on a declaration

could never be any uncertainty about
II. They wanted the clause about a
constitutional amendment n necessary
In order to avoid the possibility of a
long period OF uncertainty.
Not a member of the subcommittee
objected to the proposal on principle.
Every one expressed himself as con-
WINGED that the time had come for this
step, and that II ought to be taken In
no uncertain manner. The result was
that the clause pledging Constitution
nj amendment II necessary was inserted
as q guarantee OF complete good faith.
Caused Hullabaloo.
When that plank got into the public
prints Il caused a considerable sub
surface hullabaloo. A number OF IN

GERMANY'S PEACE OFFER.

The offer of Germany to dis.
cuss peace terms, just when she
was victoriously driving the Rou-
manians out of their country
holding back every advance of
the Russians and maintaining a
solid wall in front of the French
and British on the west, came as
an amazing surprise to the pub
lie who have been following the
accounts Of the war. Sentiment
had largely crystallized into the
belief that the war S end was in
definite and that it was a ease Of
fight until one or the other was
exhausted. But Germany move
was received with welcome by
the neutrals at least and especial

American public will devotedly

There is much speculation as to
whether Mr.. Martin, the so-called
progressive congressman from
Louisiana will vote for Clark or
Mann for Speaker. We are un-
able to understand what benefits
Mr.. Martin could get by opposing
the democratic administration. It
was the Wilson administration

escape the many pitfalls that en-

The action Of Capt. Duffy in re-
fusing to lower the American flag
over the Chemung when it was
torpedoed by an Austrian subma-
rine appears a trif1e less heroic
since it has been learned that he
was using the flag to line his own
pockets by carrying contraband

Seed Oil Magazine. of Atlanta
which in November, 1915, out
lined in an editorial substantial
reasons why cotton should adj
vance to twentycents within
twelve months. At that time the
editor Mr.. II. f. Harmon, said
that the European War had
brought about new uses for cot
ton upon a scale never dreamed
Of by the most optimistic dealer"
and he added:
cit is impossible to estimate
the amount Of cotton now being
consumed in the manufacture of
explosives for the Allies alone. A
well-known shipping agent has
just told the writer that one big
pOwder-plant in this country is
now taking at the rate Of ovel a
million bales of cotton a year
and this man knows, because he
handles the shipments. This
plant is only one Of twenty or
more now engaged in making
smokehss powder. 1t must be re-
membered that each of these pow
der-plants is working day and
night, most of them using three
shifts of workmen. each shift
working eight nous of the twenty
four. With the Allies calling for
more explosives all the time and
the probability of the war lasting |
at least another year. it is easy |
to see how quickly our eleven
million-bale crop for 1915 can be |
used in that one direction. In
fact, it looks like a shortage now,
even in supplying this new out
let for cotton which did not exist
before the war broke out"

1oted to the purchase of cotton

The railroads also demand that a per-

In reply to these propositions the
