The most perfect clocks are used in
astronomical observatories. One of
these in Berlin has run for months,
with an average error of only one
fifteen thousands of second a day.
In order to run so perfectly, a clock
must not only be constructed and adj
justed with the greatest care, but
must be installed in a special room,
such as an underground vault, where
the temperature is practically uniform
1t must also be free from jar or vibra-
ton, and must, therefore, be mounted
on heavy masonry pier. Lastly, it
should always be kept under the same

majority is ready for action.
"A little group of wilful men, repre-
senting no opinion but their own have
rendered the great government of the
United States helpless.
The remedy? There is but one
remedy. The only remedy is that the
rules of the senate shall be so altered
that it can act. The country can be
relied upon to draw the moral. l be-
lieve that the senate can be relied up
on to supply the means of action and
save the country from disaster"
CAN TAKE NO ACTION.
The president belief that he had
the power to arm merchant ships de-
spite the action of the senate was dis
sipated when his legal advisers dis
covered statute passed by congress
in 1919 dissipating this idea.
This is the law which was referred
to by those demanding extra powers
for the president. Senators Lodge,
Hitchcock and others declared in the
senate debate that to arm merchant
vessels unless the power asked by the
president was authorized, would give
the vessels the status of privateers
and their crews pirates.
Submarines, officials declare are
public vessels of a country not at
war with the United States, and hence
the presidents hands are tied.

encouraged by Senator Stone, Demo-
cratic chairman of the foreign rela-
tons committee, in a filibuster de-
nounced by President Wilson's spokes-
man as the most reprehensible in the
history of any civilized nation, defied

continuous session to appeals that their
defiance OF the president would be
humiliating to the country; uncompro-
