Overtime at the Bureau.

Some provision should be quickly
made to relieve the pressure on the
workers in the bureau of engraving and
printing, who have lately been serving
from twelve to sixteen hours daily in
the emergency caused by the printing
of new securities for the government.
It is unsafe to press skilled force so
hard, and it entails cruel hardships
which the government should not exact
from it's employees. It is true that this
is wartime, and everybody must expect
to work harder than usual, but the
engraving bureau conditions are re-
ported to be so bad that the health and
even the lives of the workers may be
menaced.
1t is, of course, desirable that the lib
erty loan bonds should be printed quick
" to be placed in the hands Of the buy
ers. But it is not essential to the yalic
ity of the transaction that they be
rushed. If they are not delivered for
two months, or three, or six, the loan
to the government will still be amply
secured. Interest is not due for six
months, and the physical possession of
the bonds by the subscribers is in any
event only essential in the case of the
coupon bonds for the securing of that
interest. Assuredly the great drive at
the bureau to get these bonds printed
should not be at pace to put crush
ing burden upon the women and girls
who are there employed, particularly at
this season when extra work is always
dangerous.

soning of these resolutions save by as
Stunning that the congress of vorkmen
and soldiers holds that peace should
come, after a vigorous prosecution OF
the war to certain point, by an inter
national agreement, with all of the ma
tons engaged still intact, militarily and
politically. In other words, according
to this view, international peace would
be assured by drawn fight with none
Of the belligerents victorious. This IS
in truth just what the governments at
London, Paris and Rome dread, peace
based upon non-victory, peace OF mu-
tual exhaustion without the definite de-
prival of Germany of the power of max
ing offensive war hereafter
So long as the Russian socialists, now
evidently in control of the political sit
uation, hold firmly against the thought
of separate peace and maintain Wig
orous campaign along the eastern front
it matters but little what their view may
be as to the ultimate peace basis.

No Wheat Speculation.

Announcement made yesterday at Chi
cago of the arrangement effected be-
tween the Board of Trade of that city
and representatives of the government
whereby the United States will control
the wheat trade in all its commercial
aspects gives assurance that there will
be no wild price boosting by SPECTATORS
IN the grain market during the war.
This is a pcccssitv This spring grain
prices were juggled in the Chicago mar
ket to such an extent that wheat went
"out of sight" without any justification
in respect to relation of supply and de-
mand. There can be no stability of the
food prices if wheat spectators play
with the market. With the government
in charge speculation ends This does
not, however, prevent competition, but
even legitimate competition for supplies
must be kept under regulation.

The Wars Beginning.

Three years ago today came news of
the assassination the day before of the
Crown Prince of Austria and his wife
at Serajevo, Bosnia. 1t was a startling
crime, but very few then foresaw the
consequences. There had been slayings
before in the Balkans. though none of
the earlier victims had been of such ex-
allied rank. The Balkans themselves
were VIGOROUSLY Europe's storm center
and every disturbance there was known
to make for grave international strains.
1t was known that Austria was seeking
to extend her dominion and influence over
the little states to the south of her, and
there was no secret in the fact that Ger
many was steadily preparing for "the
day" when she would he in position
to strike for continental dominion. 1t
was known, too, that Russia was smart
ing under the taking by Austria of Bos
mia and Herzegovina. 1t was known,
too, that the Balkans themselves were
in disagreement, Bulgaria regarding
with resentment and desire for revenge
the settlement of the second war, which
involved the loss of the Dobrudia. All
these things, however. did not neces
sarily Head to war between the powers,
unless there was will at one of the
great capitals to direct the course of
events that way.
The non-Teutonic world today be-
ieves that Germany-that is. the mill
tant party-saw in this affair the op-
portunity to strike; that it was with Ger
man consent, if not at German instiga-
ton, that Austria made her impossible
demands upon Serbia, demands so harsh
that the little state could yield only at the
cost of sovereignty and fight alone only
at the cost of national existence It is
believed that Germany and Austria were
espousal of the Serbian cause, even with
the almost certain entrance of France
into the war as Russia's ally. Against
Russia and France alone Germany and
Austria could wage successful war. If
Russia did not enter the equation Ger
many and Austria would be driving with
out resistance a wedge into the Balkans
designed ultimately to establish the
great central empire across the Darda-
neHes into Asia. 1t was a big stake and
the chances were apparently slight that
other nations than Russia and France
would enter the conflict in aid of the
Serbians.
Germany did not expect England to
enter the war and fully expected Italy,
If not partisan as member of the triple
alliance, to remain at least neutral. Ger
many did not expect France to mobilize
/ so quickly or Russia to present SO soon
! formidable force Least of all did
Germany calculate upon the instant and
furious resentment of neutral peoples
against the violation of Belgium. which
was contemplated in Berlin with DELHI

war which that shot at Serajevo three
years ago caused

Russian Peace Reasoning,

Successive expressions by representa-
tive Russian organizations tend to dem
onstrate that the Russian people are
with comparative rapidly acquiring
point of view from which, they can clear
ly see that not only their duty but their
actual safety demand the utmost pos
sible prosecution Of the war against
Germany. The congress of workmen's
and soldiers deputies of all Russia has
by an overwhelming majority adopted
resolution declaring that "the struggle
for more rapid ending of the war con
stitutes the most important problem for
the revolutionary democracy" and
furthermore, categorically rejects every
policy tending in fact to the conclusion
of separate peace or "to its prelude.
a separate armistice"
An English translation of the Russian
text of the resolution states that the
congress recognizes that ending the
war by means of the defeat of one of the
belligerents would constitute the point
of departure for fresh wars, increase
dissensions among the nations and lead
them to complete exhaustion, famine and
ruin" Yet the resolutions pass on to
a second conclusion. "that a separate
peace would strengthen one of the bel
ligerents and give it the possibility Of
gaining decisive victory over the
others, with strengthened aspirations
toward usurpation by the ruling classes,
and, while liberating Russia from the
grip of worldwide imperialism, would
hinder international unifcation of work
| ers"

The Senate Debate.

Speculation about the probable length
Of the Senate debate on the revenue bill
is lively. In Senate circles there is little
expression of opinion. Outside Of those
circles there is variety of opinion.
Some observers DO not expect the final
vote for month after the measure has
been taken up.
There are two reasons why the debate
should be reasonably full. The first is
. that the subject has developed consid-
erably and materially since the House
dealt with it. The House bill has prae-
tically been scrapped. The country rose
against that, and the Senate was aid
monished. But, while admonished
against what it ought not to do, it was
left somewhat in the dark about what it
ought to do. And the Senate-at any
rate the finance committees still

The King and the Colonel.

The battle over beer is on in the SEN
ate. Senators, we are told, are clearing
from home" They are, of course. King
Gambrinus has a we'll equipped organi-
zation, which moves swiftly under or
ders. Now is the time for it to move,
and it seems to be moving. We shall
not have to wait long to see the force
and effect of the movement.
In support of beer it is urged Q) that
it is mountaineering and of value to
the poor man as refresher and ex-
hilarant; (2) that TO deprive him of it
will make him resentful and discomfort
ed at time when he should be in the
opposite mood; (3) that great amount
of capital is invested in brewing and a
large number of persons employed; and
az the government needs the revenue
assessed against the industry.
Two of these points apply to distilling.
The whisky business represents an enor-
nous amount of capital and employs a
the government large sum annually in
the way Of taxes.
But Col. Barleycorn's friends are not
moving in his behalf. If they are
mourning for him, it is inarticulate
Theirs is silent sadness"
And yet the king and the colonel have
long been cronies. Together they have
built up and supported the barroom evil
As they have been unloyely in their
lives, if the hour Of death has arrived
they should not be parted.
Still, it is for Congress to say, and
Congress should say. The House has
said, and said definitely, neither whisky
nor beer while the war lasts. What
says the Senatef After Clearing from
home" and communing with themselves,
how do senators feel and how are they
willing to vote on the beer proposition
The President is silent, though there
voice before the Constitution requires
it. There is no suggestion of his rails
ing an issue one way or the other with
Congress should Congress send him a
bill without his Intervention. Belief is
that whether beer is exempted from the
provisions of the measure, or put under
the ban with whisky, he will sign. He
wants revenue, and bill raising it in
large sums by one means or another.

cropping. Debate usually does, and

cropping. DeDate usually uocS, oAu
should in this case, let in light.
The second reason is that the two by
elections held since this Congress as
sembled have shown that notwithstand-
ing the war there is politics in the odd
land yet. In a New Hampshire con-
gressional district and in one in In
diana the two old parties contended on
party issues, and the people responded
by going to the polls in gratifying num-
bers. In both cases the republicans reg
istered easy victory. So as the voters
are stiH considering politics and parties,
it will be we'll for senators to give clear
reasons for their votes on the details
of a revenue measure. Taxes touch all;
and ill-advised assessments sometimes
! return to plague their inventors.
A third of the seats of the Senate will
be in the scale next year. Some-maybe
all-of their present occupants will ask
for Endorsement at the polls. and, of
course, must appeal TO the record. They
must answer for the deeds done in the
senatorial body. No other feature of
the record will be more important than
that relating to their views and votes on
financing the war Hence now is the
time for them to lay foundations for an
other term in the Senate-at any rate,
for campaign giving hope Of success.
1t is an old topic, but with many new
features, and on that account worthy of
the Senate's close and reasonably pro-
tracted attention.
