ing Under Action OF Legislature
Ratification

The -tlrys Of Massachusetts are. on
the whole well satisfied with the re-
suit OF the November elections in so
far as the returns affect the complex
ion Of the next Legislature.
While 1t is unlikely that temperance
measures of importance will he in
troduced into the legislature at the
coming session next winter II is es-
seutial to preserve a working balance
In favor Of DRY interests and TO guard
against hostile bills.
The failure of the liquor interests
to make serious @inroads into the ranks
of those supporting ratification has
given candidates assurance, in case
they needed to be convinced, that
their political futures would be. safe
~ hen they did their duty.
The reelection Of Senator Hastings
or North Adams. chairman In the last
Legislature Of the Committee of Fed
cral Eelai ions" was especially graft
flying. The opposition has singled him
out for defeat and 1t reflects great
credit upon the loyalty and good 3udg-
inent OF the church people of the
Berkshires that their senator has re-
turned to the Office which he so con-
spiciously honored last year.
The apparent defeat of Senator
Harop In the first Worcester senator
ial district came as an unpleasant sur
prise TO his numerous ratification
supporters. A recount has been petit
toned for. and it is to he hoped that
the return majority of 90 against him
may be counted in his favor.
The.,wet of Massachusetts, put up
a determined fight to defeat those leg
islators who came up for reelection
who had voted for ratification.
1t will he recalled that one OF the
severest disappointments in the wet
camp last year was the action OF the
Massachusetts Legislature in rattfyins

In many cases where the man
ufanture Ct war supplies has been
undertaken by private contract
ors it has been found necessary
for the government to purchase
machinery for the use of the
manufacturer. After it has serv-
ed its purpose under the contract
the government must sell it or
lcse its value. To carry out rec,
concentrations of the War depart
ment along that line Represent
ative Frank L. Greene of Ver-
mont has reported a bill to the
House authorizing the sale of war
equipment of various kinds that
may be needed by our allies. or
which is no longer Of use in the
prosecution of the war. The pro-
ceeds of such sales are to be co.,
cred into the treasury, and a re
port made to Congress. The mea-
sure has received the approval of
the Committee on Military AZ
fairs. and Will doubtless be passed
by the House in the near future.

One of the minor things that
have contributed to the delay in

found in the leisurely way III
which the Senate Committee on
Public Lands has considered bill
No. 2714. That measure author
ICES the removal o. stumps from
cut-oyer public lands in Oregon
and California. The material in
the stumps is peculiarly suited
for the manufacture CT ship
knees, and the passage Of the leg
iSlation was necessary before they
could be utilized for that purpose,
The bill was introduced in the
Senate early last August, and its
passage was recommended by the
Secretary of the Interior in a let.
ter a few days later. But the
Democratic chairman of the com,
mittee failed to call it up for con.
sideration until late III March,
when a favorable report was or.
dered.

Under this system as soon as q re-
quest comes tc the housing bureau
for homes in city congested with
war workers Nj. Shannon dispatches
his two neares. field agents to that
city They arrive before the request
for government aid has become gem
orally known AID they look over sites
suggested near the war factory where
the workers are congested.
Their report is forwarded to Mr..
Shannon, who then has an outline Of
the situation ip that city. The next
step is to haveithe committee Of five
real estate men in t1at city appraise
the proposed sites. Their report is
held and a request is sent to the trade
bodies and the Ro.ary Club Of that
city to appoint committees to appraise
the property under consideration.
These organizations are instructed
not to place any men in the real es-
tate business OF these committees
