The senate adopted the closure rule
asked by the president, March 8, by a
vote of 76 to 3. For over a century
debate has been limited only by the
physical endurance OF the senators.
Now on petition of sixteen senator's to
close debate on pending measure a

senator desiring to speak. 1t prevents
time-killing tactics by the minority

TOOK CITIZENSHIP SERIOUSLY.

Kansas City Star: There died in
New York a few days ago a gifted
and charming man whose name was
not generally known in the middle west
but whose life was an inspiration to
good citizenship. William 3. How
land. president Of the company pub
fishing the Independent, for many
years business manager of the Out
look. was a successful and resourceful
publisher. But he was much more
than a good business man. In spite
Of all his various business activities,
he found time to assume the respon-
sibilities Of a citizen.
Mr.. Rowland was a founder of the
American Civic association and
served as it's treasurer to the time OF
his death. He was president Of the
commissioners OF the New York state
reservation at Niagara Falls. For II
years he was treasurer Of the Congre-
gational Home Missionary society. He
was one of the promoters OF the plan
for making Sulgrave Manor-the an
cestral home Of George Washington in
England shrine Of American pa
triotism. He was the first president
Of the American Institute Of Graphic
Arts. and the second president of the
American Periodical Publishers asso-
citation. ) For his services as treasurer
OF the Society of Italian Immigrants
he was decorated by the king Of Italy.
In recognition of his activities in con-
nection with the celebration of the 100
years of peace between Great Britain
and the United States he was given
the honorary degree Of LII. D. by the
University Of Toronto.
It is that spirit of accepting re-
sponsibility that makes great peo-
pie. II men and women are content
always to get and never give, IL they
feel that the community owes them
the opportunity to make living but
that they owe nothing to the commun-
ity in return. then they are deficient
in citizenship. and their community
suffers.

A PHILOSOPHERS ON eERMANrsM.

Book Review in The Nation: DR..
Santayana has long enjoyed the dis
tinction Of being the Shaw Of the phil
osophers, supremely skiIfuI as an
artificer of phrases and diabolically
clever.
DR.. Santayana tells US in his preface
that all he has undertaken to do Ii to
give the aroma Of German philosophy
that has reached his nostrils' He
! writes. in other words. as a connois-
seur in philosophic odors.
Egotism. DR.. Santayana defines as
subjectivity In thought and wilfulness
In morals. German egotism finds its
most ambitious expression in German
idealism in which Imagination that IL
sustained is called knowledge, illusion
that is coherent is called truth, and
Will that is systematic Is called vir-
tue"-an idealism whose only sanction,
sought or desired, is "the determine
ton to reassert It," The seeds OF this
egotism are found in Kant, whose cat
egorical imperative was the open door
to fanaticism, since 1t gave an excuse
for identifying selfassertion and am
bition. with the creative spirit Of the
universe. The ripened fruit comes in
Ffchte and in Hegel, for whom the
dramatic progress Of history begins
with Eden and ends in Berlin" It IL
Lounup more nolElly expressed, In Stir
ner and Nietzsche. It appears also in
Goethe. who, in his romatic mood
would absorb the world, who valued
his experiences as stepping stones in
the development OF self:
Every pathetic sweetheart In turn
was a sort of Belgium to him; he vio-
lated her neutrality with a sigh: his
heart bled for her innocent sufferings,
and he never said afterward in self
defense, like the German chancellor.
that she was no better than she need
be.
Schopenhauer, the one gentleman"
DR.. Santayana finds among German
philosophers, he meets more nearly on
terms of equality.
In short, all the expressions of Ger
man genius, its Professionalism, its
idealism, its Nietzschianism, its
Schwarmeri, and its music, are 80
many groupings after its primitive
heathenism, and heatherism Is the
primal and universal religion

this city have brought his house into
the foremost ranks of the department
stores of the world. Aggressive and
possessing that initiative that CON-
mands business success, he forever
kept pace with the trend of times,
always seeking Improvement and con-
stantly scoring success in his under
takings.
To his employees that have numbered
thousands among the people of Wash

consideration and generosity. He was
always several steps ahead in improv-

employees worked. To him they were

HOLLAND LETTER
The Biggest Daily
Financial News Feature Of
the Country's Best Newspapers.

II the legislature which Governor
Whitman summoned into special ses-
sion on the last day of July adopts
his recommendation, the peril Of food
shortage in New York will be. II not
eliminated, at least much lessened.
The danger which the governor Is
likely to meet with when the legis-
lature considers his recommendation
is the powerful speculative food inter-
ests in New York and the relation
of those who are now ready to gam
Bile in food products and hope to con-
tinue this business, to some of the
influential politicians of the State.
Gambling in food products is a high
ly-organized system in New York
State, and the wonder is whether any
thing short Of Federal action and
that of the most peremptory kind, car
rying severe penalties. can destroy
it. The politicians who are in asso-
citation. perhaps not in a pecuniary
way, with the food gamblers are Of
influence with legislators. Left to
themselves the legislators would prob
ably gladly adopt the recommended
tions for food control which Governor
Whitman made to it.
Last winter various bills were be-
fore the legislature which, IL enact
ed into law, would have given the
authorities fairly good control Of the
food situation in New York. But the
influences were SO strong, presumably
inspired by the men who speculate or
expect to speculate in food, that the
legislature adopted only one of these
measures. That one created a de-
partment OF food or markets in New
York City. 1t Is to be a one-man
commission and the governor has
power to appoint the commissioner.
Who that commissioner will be will
depend upon the willingness of the
legislature to heed certain recommend
atoms which the governor is expect
ed to make. Should there be enacted
into law bill which would provide
for the creation of food commission
for New York States consisting of
three members, then the head Of the
department of food Of New York City
would automatically become a MEM
Der of this commission. II the State
commission is established it will have
abundant power not only to encour-
age production of food but also to con-
troll the transportation and distribu-
ton OF 1t and to take such measures
as will stop speculation

of private business under the enor-
mously inflated ocean rates now
charged.
In the Presidents recent outgiving
on profiteering, he singled the ship
ping men out for criticism because
Of rate imitation. These private in
dividuals were the victims of condi-
tions which they were unable to
change or correct The government
has now applied the obvious remedy.
1t has taken over the ships, and will
charter them to their present owners,
with absolute control Of rates, routes,
etc. This system is modelled after
the British. and should work without
any friction whatsoever. The Ship
ping Board, the army transportation
service and other government agen-
cies involved, are giving an. admira-
BILE example of cooperation.
There is more than one way OF
skinning a cat, and more than one
way of beating the submarine. We
will strain every nerve to make our
tonnage construction output equal to
the emergency. But In the immediate
future it is well to utilize to the maxi
mum effectiveness the shipping we al
ready possess. This the government is
doing. 1t is showing no timidity in
asserting it's power. Nor are private
interests showing any tendency to OBJ
struct the obvious tendency to take
the control of their business away
from them.

Shipping.

Whether 1t be due to the accession
Of Edward n. Hurley, as chairman,
In place Of the Inflated Denman or
not, the Shipping Board is the scene
of cyclonic activity now. There is
quiet, bloodless revolution going
on in the whole tonnage situation.
Vessels are being requisltioned, char
ters are being absorbed at a feyerish
pace. The international pool to regu-
late ocean rates will soon be stripped
for action. Allied control of the
worlds shipping is at hand.
The requisitioning of coastwIse
shipping for transatlantic service is
going to be. severely criticised. Ger
tain sections of the Pacific Coast will
be hard hit. Alaska and Seattle,
