Editorial Comment
on Current Subjects
A STACKER CONGRESS-
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
Congress is the one branch Of the
government that has broken down in
the war and failed of its duty. Our
neighbor the Sun does not oVerstate
the gravity of the situation when II
says, There is no responsible leader
ship In either House or Senate"
Take the Army Bill as an illustra
ton. Although the declaration Of a
state of war was adopted April 6, the
United States is still without mill
tary establishment, thanks to the folly
Of Congress. Even since the princi'
pie Of selective draft was agreed
upon, over two weeks have been vast.
ed in irresponsible controversy on the
foolish scheme to give Mr. Roosevelt
a private army.
The record Of Congress In respect to
the Espionage Bill is hardly less de-
plorable. The original measure as 1t
came from the Department Of Justice
was so arbitrary and despotic that
even its sponsors could not defend it,
But what happened? Instead Of draft
ing a substitute bill, Congress has
spent weeks in eloquence and oratory,
A majority of the members Of the
House and Senate are lawyers. There
must be hundred men in Congress
who are competent to draw an Espion
age bill that will give the government
the powers that it needs and at the
same time will protect liberty of
speech and of the press; yet Congress
has preferred to talk rather than act.
Although the fiscal year will end in
six weeks, discussion Of the revenue
bill has only begun, and 1t is one of the
moss important measures of the war.
The whole problem Of food control is
yet to be solved, and 1t is vital. The
Navy department is still waiting for
authority to increase the navy person
mel to 10000 men and the Marine
Corps to 10000. Nothing whatever hae
been done about the $1,OOO,OO0,OOO
shipping bill, and yet the war is lost
unless we can build ships faster than
the German submarines can destroy
them.
Six weeks ago Senators and Repre-.
sentatives were solemnly proclaiming

GR EFINITE ships. definite men, and definite
day formed the keynote Of Franklin Roosevelts
speech before the Navy League at the reception
rendered to Rear Admiral Sir Dudley de Chair naval
head of the British Commission.
Mr. Roosevelt was in the audience while the speeches
were being made and was spied by Colonel Robert M
Thompson president Of the league and hailed to the ros-
trum He didn't have time to prepare any remarks, but
he didn't need it He made the audience sit up and take
notice right from the jump The assistant secretary of the
navy evidently believed that not mentioning no
oense could be took but his subtle anagment of the
navy department for its delays left no doubt the minds
of his listeners as to who was to blame.
1T is not matter of what the navy will accomplish be-
tween now and next September. We want to ask our
selves what are we going do between and next Sum
day. said Mr. Roosevelt And referring to the criminal
procrasnation of Congress, due to Democratic lodging
and subterfuge, he declared; The quicker the people
demand of their representatives that this delay be emn
ated and action substituted, the quicker will be done this
great serious work of war which now faces US.
Franklin D. Roosevelt looks and acts like live wire
American He is wonderful contrast to the slow moving
and befudded Secretary Of the Navy Josephus Daniels
The navy service would be improved if Roosevelt super
seeded Daniels.

CAPTAIN Frank H. Clark, Of the bu-
reau Of Ordnance and Civil Engineer
Reuben 2. Bakenbus, Of the Bureau Of
Yards and Docks, are working on the
plans for the new armor plant at
Charleston, w. Va, where also will be
located the proiectile plant, which will
be constructed first on bids soon to
be invited.
1t has been realized all along that
the available appropriation Of Sll,000,-
900 for the armor plant is not nearly
sufficient for the purpose. The esu-
mate was made three or four years
ago. and then It was considered insult
ficient by experts not connected with
the government. In view Of advances
in the cost Of material and labor since
then, It is not thought that the plant
can be built for less than $25, 100000.
An interesting discovery was made
in the course Of the negotiations for
the transfer Of the land at Charleston,
which involved the cession Of 2O5
acres Of land from the city. 1t was
found that an old statute Of the state
prohibited the ownership by the Uni
ted States in West Virginia Of more
than rs acres of land, but that law will
be repealed by the special session OF
the legislature which convened this
week.
Work on the building Of the armor
plant will not begin during the war,
but Secretary Daniels has announced
that work on the pro1ectile plant will
go forward without any unnecessary
delay.

1t is said at Washington that officials of Britain and
France in this country and the diplomatic corps in
era are of the opinion that America does not actually
know the war throb. That is true. Large bodies move
slowly. When this country does feel the war throb;
when for instance it goes through experience such
as Canada did when it woke up morning and found
that regiment dear to its heart had been wiped out
because it was made the victim of gas attack, We'll
feel the war throb-and so will the rest of the world
