ISSUES while others Of greater Importance were
held up indefinitely
The president. on the other hand. has been
tremendously efficient in his handling of all war
affairs, He mas Spurred up the depart nents to
the point whore they have been and are accom-
phshng much more than any had expected
them to do IN the short time since the adoption OF
the declaration. Mr. Wilson has definite pol
icies and obviously is driving onward to definite
ends. These facts have made deep and very
favorable impression upon the country.
Under the circumstances, therefore, popular
sentiment will be with the chief executive in this
contest or in any extension of it during the pres
ent session. The people will support him because
he is doing what they wish to done and con-
gress is not. The hestant manner in which the
houses have dealt with their own problems up to
this time does not support belief that govern
mental efficiency would be increased by direct
congressional interference in the management of
war affairs through joint committee
The people of the United States today would
rather turn the full conduct of the war over to the
president and the administration, than to have
him hampered still further by congress. That
body is in bad'' and very badly, too, right now
because of its woefully diatory tactics on the
food control and war revenue measures particu-
lary, and the country has patience for any
more such horse play.

THE FOURTH YEAR.

1.-The three most awful years in the world s his.
tory" AZ one reviewer expressed it, ended
Wednesday and the fourth began. The end is far
from being in sight. Russia's routed army is q
dangerous liability, not asset to the Allies;
France is being pressed so hard she is fast wear
ing out; England has reached the peak of the load
abe can carry. Victory-and Of course it must be
victory-depends upon the United States, upon us.
That is the situation at the beginning Of the
fourth year. We might as well be frank about it.
Germany carried the war into the country of the
rines are sinking British and American vessels
far faster than both countries are building new
ones to take their place She is holding nearly the
whole world at bay, but SO far she has not only
done that successfully but has maintained the
advantage on her side.
The burden Of winning the war is upon us. We
have got to realize it more fully than we do. In
few days we begin selecting here, as selections
are already under way in the eastern section of
the United States, the army that will be the chief
help in doing it. It's sad serious business, but
it's got to be done. We have got to fight the
worlds fight now to preserve our own institu-
tons and promote democracy, else the rule of
ruthless militarism will be triumphant over all.
We enter the fourth year Of the great struggle
with the most gigantic task in our history before
az. If it ends in six months or year or two years
or three years, it viii be through the force and
success of the effort we expend. When the war
ends in other words, will depend upon how soon
the United States gets into the thick of it.

I'VE MUST WIN.

Writing under this title in the current issue of
the Commoner, William Jennings Bryan, the
greatest paciicist of them ALL says:
''Those who, before the United States entered
the war; thought it best to remain neutral and
postpone until after the war the settlement of
differences with belligerent nations, will have
difficulty in recognizing the change in the situa-
ton caused by our own nations entrance into the
war. Had we remained neutral we might have
been able to act as mediator and thus rendered an
important service to the world. In entering the
war, however, we surrendered that opportunity
and incurred the enmity of the central powers. A
new situation. therefore, confronts us. We must
not only protect ourselves from those who are now
our enemies, but we must find an opportunity for
world service in aiding to arrange permanent
peace built on justice, liberty and democracy
1--WE MUST WIN. Defeat is inconceivable-
it would be indescribably unfortunate if it
possible. We not allow any foreign nation to
determine the destiny of the United States espe
cially nation committed as Germany is to arbi-
trary government and militarism.
Neither we afford to have our allies over
come-that would bring upon us the disasters of
defeat or the burden Of carrying the war alone.
1--WE are in the war by action of congress 1.-THE
only body authorized to take the nation into war.
The quickest way to peace is to 60 straight
through, supporting the government in all it un-
dertakes, no matter how long the war lasts or how
nuch it costs.
1--WE MUST WIN.
ANY discord or division, after the government
has acted, would prolong the war and increase

Perhaps it's good thing to have it now and

early days of her entry into the war while all the
world looked on aghast and couldn t understand.
But England got Strengthened around in short
time and got all her forces and industries and &C.

A JOINT WAR COMMITTEE.

Public sentiment swung to the support of Pres
ident Wilson when he frankly and plainly told
the houses of congress, through the conferees on
the food control bill, that the joint committee on
war expenditures proposed by the senate as an
amendment to that measure would hamper the
conduct of the war, and all because, as the Seattle
Times, puts it, circumstances to date overwhelm-
ingly support the president in his opposition to
the scheme
Congress" the Times goes on to say, has
not displayed such degree of decision or such
measure OF efficiency as would entitle it to the
confidence Of the country 1t has been irresolute
and procrastinatng in the face of every crisis It
