PORTLAND ALSO, PIPPLH

Some districts send people to
Congress to get pork and lug It back
home. Others seemingly commission
them to purvey piffle.
There is, for example, the First
district, of North Dakota. It il rep
resented in the lower house by
Henry T. Helgesen, whose most alb
sorbing interest in life and public
affairs for several years has seemed
to be the demonstration that Peary
il q faker and never got to the
North Pole, while DR.. Cook IL q great
explorer who did get there.
Most recent Of Mr.. Helgesen's en-
terprises along this line is the intro
duction Of a resolution to repeal the
Congressional act recognizing the
services Of Admiral Peary. OF
course, it couldn't pass; but it will
give an excuse for inserting some
more of this played-out and bootless
controversy into the Congressional
Record.
No wonder the Record is a joke
or Congress!

Usher loves his political fracas; short
Of imminent danger that his whole
national structure may come crash
ing about his head, he insists on the
fun Of q political row at all times.
He is getting his nerve back, and
finds the attraction Of political rue
ton quite too strong to resist.
The present Parliament has re-
mained in Office longer than any
other since the Long Parliament Of
Cromwell's day. Its life has been
once extended, to avoid an election
during the war; but there IL increas-
ing doubt II It can survive to the
end II seems q pity that the As
quith regime could not have won It's
way to the splendid distinction Of
leading the allies through to the end
Of the war; and perhaps calmer
counsels will yet prevail. But at the
moment there IL sign Of political
trouble, which can only eliminate in
the formation Of q new government.
In that government without much
doubt Mr.. Churchill will command q
place. The feeling that he was made
a sacrifice without justification has
grown to be a widespread, though
not by any means universal, convic-
ton. Like his distinguished father,

quires a strong government to get

stronger one to get along without

While mono Of the officials at Con-
gressional Union headquarters here
could state definitely today what West
tern women waters who mako up the
Woman's party will decide when they
meet In Colorado Springs. there seemed
to be little doubt they would support
Mr.. Hughes.
With yesterdays announcement from
the White House that the President had
not changed his mind on the suffrage
issue. the last CLEAN of hope. so far as
securing support from the Democratic
party for the Anthony amendment was
concerned. seemed to fade. sufrragists
say.
Following the Colorado Springs confer
ence suffra gist speakers will take the
stump in all Of the equal suffrage States
and urge the women there to support the
candidate decided upon at the confer
ence.
