The London Chamber Of Com
merce has just gone upon record
in a carefully considered declar-
alton that "the operation of gov
ernment control of industry as
now practiced is a menace to
trade prosperity and a grave
handicap to the plans for COM
mercial development after the
war; 1t is not at all surprising
that such a conclusion should be
reached. Few men are success
full in any line of enterprise.
They attained success by begin
ming at the bottom and working
up, learning in the hard school
of experience and under the in
centive of personal interest and
ambition. When it is all such
men can do to make industry
successful, how can it be expect
ed tfat control Of business can be
successful when turned over TO
men Of ineXperience in the lines
over which they are given charge?
Giving a man a commission TO
control business does not carry
with it capacity to do the work,
any more tnan pivihg a boy a di-
ploma would invest him with an
education. We are trying the
experiment in this country, and
it is interesting, at the begin
ming, to note the results in Great
Britain after the experiment has
been tried.

The President, while agreeing

have treaty obligations which
initiate against the use Of alters
in a conscripted army, and it Is
true that treaties have to be ne

The commander-in-chief of the

South are united IN defense of
the country against the common
foe. True. By means of the
census figures the North furn-
lshes more than it's quota of draft

influence at Washington the
South will have these men sent
to southern camps for training;
by means of it's control of Con-

two sections are united all right.
In fact, the South has managed

ATTITUDE OF THE PRESS

The wisdom Of the Senate in elimi.
mating the press censorship feature
from tho espionage bill cannot be
doubted. The position of the news.

but that the operation of such law
would be wholly under the control Of
subordinates. Again, the sum and sub.
stance OF the attitude of the press is
that the newspapers are against dicta-
torship. whether that dictatorship af-
fects their own business or any other
business. When the Treasury Depart
ment tried to put the Riggs Bank out
Of business the press was against the

because they arc against dictatorship
