home. The order was roundly de nounced because some of the Demo- cratic leaders and several members construed it as a move to get com bined Democratic and Republican support in a politically uncertain house.
 One member suggested that the or der would put many Republicans in office, as many of the more active as sistant postmasters are Republicans retained by the Democratic postmas- ters and still another wanted to know what would happen if the one man certified from the examination were a negro. The postmaster general, ac- cOrding to those present, replied that the examination would have to take place and that there would be mo special privilege to any one"
 A western Democrat asked why the order, if issued at all. should not pro vide for certifying the three highest in the examination as eligible to post mastership, as was done when the fourth class postmasters were blank eted into the service
 A majority of Republicans joined with the Democrats recently in re- jecting proposition for putting all postmasters under the civil service when an amendment to that effect was offered to an appropriation bill in the house, although Republican Leader Mann and a few others favor ed it. S

BY OLIVER OWEN KUHN.

Never since the European war started
have the various belligerent nations
been as expectant; never has the world
as whole labored under as great ten
sion as al the present moment
Each moment may bring forth far
reaching developments. Everywhere
there is Il feeling that the next six
months is to be a crucial period in the
settlement or adjustment of world
affairs through the weight of the sword
or through diplomatic endeavor.
On every battle front in Europe in the
past week the world has witnessed
events which would indicate that the
military reckoning in Europe is about
to begin. The armies of the entente
never were more ready to carry battle
into the enemy's camp than at the
present juncture. Germany has mar
shaled almost every able-bodied man.

Russians and Teutons are again g-ipped

where Gen. Serial is expected to take

man forces. anticipating this. have de-
Hvered several attacks of large pro-
portions: the fighting has been re-
newed on a large scale on the Carso
and in Trentino. between Italians and
Austrians; while in the western arena
both French and British continue to
hammer Germanir positions at various
points, while the Teutons have not been
slow in delivering counter attacks.
On the whole such military operations
as have been progressing during the
past ten days have been of feeling-out
character. but all are highly significant.
as they are of the sort which generally
herald determined offensives. For this
reason the attitude of expectancy on
the part of all belligerent nations of
Europe probably is justified, more so
when the fact is taken into considera
tion that all feel that the war may be
decided during the coming summer. De-
veIopments early in the year may go
far in determining what the status of
affairs will be when the fall months
come.

It is believed that Gen. Brussiloff's

the near future. inasmuch as it is re-
ported that the conference in Petro-

Russian endeavor. Plans
for the years campaigns are declared
to have been laid out in extreme de-

year of decision may be the year OF

Thus Sir Douglas Haig, commander-in-
chief of the British armies operating in
the western arena. optimistically views
the years prospects. Though 1t is to be
doubted whether the French and British
have 1t within their power, even with the
assistance of their allies, completely to
destroy German armies. the remarks o.
the British commander are highly Signifi-
cant in that they again reveal the en-
tentes purpose of pressing for a decision
in the present year and that an effort
will be made to defeat the Teutons on
the western front.

meats, bread, cheeses. milk and other

however. has there been voiced even
hint that Great Britain cannot success
fully master the hardships before her,
either from an economic or financial
standpoint.
The serenity with which some high
British officials and the British press
view the submarine issue is partially
due to the confidence placed in the
ability of the British navy TO success
fully cope with the U-boats. Admiral
Jellicoe graphically states that the de-
struction OF German submarines is GO

More than three thousand submarine
