Organization of the Next House

There seems to be movement
thruout the United States Fer the
members Of the next house I, orga-

argument for this kind Of an org
nization is that during troubulous
times the congress of this country
should be nonpartisan. This argu-
ment has merit and when combined
with other reasons would seem to be
sufficient to justify such action on
the part Of our law makers.
There is another important condi-
ton to be taken into consideration
and one that may bring about this
bipartisan If not nonpartisan orga-
nization. II appears that neither the
Republicans nor the Democrats have
sufficient number to elect a

Surely those boys over in the sem

successful stunt at filibustering. Con-

criticise such men as Stone and La

of all minority parties have been do
ing this very thing for at least one
hundred years. The people of this
country have right to demand of

Perhaps II Is to the credit of the
German empire that its officials ad-
init that they had planned to make
an ally out Of Mexico and another out
of Japan. She is very frank about
the matter and gives reasons for so
doing.
1t is somewhat of surprise to
many of the thinking people of this
country that some of the people
should pretend to be surprised that
Germany should do this. To those
who have been watching the bellig-
erent nations of Europe for the past
three years there should be no sur
prise. 1t is a part of the regular
game of war and is enjoyed by all
the nations of the world of all the
ages. The great game is to get as
many in on ones own side as pos
sible, knowing that war is what Sher-
man said 1t was.
The people of this country should
not pretend to be surprised. 1t is
our business to expect and anticipate
these things. We are living in an
age of diplomacy. Our President in
vited the neutral nations to join the
United States in its opposition to the
submarine program of Germany. The
President was acting in harmony
with the times and If there is any
criticism coming along this line it
is because he did not push his diplo-
may to the fullest extent.
There is no use to play the baby
at. War is war, and it is about the

speaker. The half dozen independ-
ents can block any plan of either or
both parties. They have threatened
this and it is likly that they will
force some kind of union of the
Democrats and the Republicans. Both
Democrats and Republicans have a
certain regard for each other, but
have little regard for minority par
ty representatives.
While some have proposed that
this bipartisan movement make
Clark the speaker, it is very likely
that the party that has the larger
number of representatives in con-
gress will demand the speaker. If
the Republicans elected more rep
resentatives they should have the
speaker.

war it should not be tardy in taking
advantage of everything that counts
for the end, and that is victory. Let
the people of this country not act

the stand that the Amerian nation

1t is very doubtful that Germany
