The House passed the leasing bill
for OIL. gas. coal and phosphates. It
has many valuable features, but none
good enough TO pax for tying up the
country's resources in nifty year
leases with possibilities OF renewal
The values involved in oil alone may
total tens OF billions. before coming
TO coal. Passing such bills during a
war craze. with no quorum present
half the time. Is not a convincing
proof OF the patriotism which means
caring more for the people OF a coun-
try than for the sum total Of their
real estate as shown on the map.
After long debate. the Senate
passed the rehabilitation bill for
MANNED veterans. The debate did not
result in any improvement Of the bill
worth mentioning. but the advocates
OF compulsory kultur were not per-
mitted TO make IL worse
The House adopted the conference

ing amendment The Senate did not

Senator Simmons. who has done more
than any one else TO bring about
settlement for the best interest Of
the country and TO the satisfaction or
all concerned in Congress, had
right to feel sggrieved. The Repub-
lican Senators had only to say: This
Is our nou-partisan judgment and
the whole matter would have gone
over until after the election. Il am
deeply disappointed at not reaching
an agreement with our Republican
colleagues" Senator Simmons said in
an impartial summary OF the failure
OF the day and its causes. Il hope
that despite the failure, the President
may find himself able to Gcquiescs in
postpOning this legislation"
II is understood that Senator Sim
mons has given the President a full
statement OF the facts. and that his
letter makes it possible that a final
conclusion may Ftiu be reached TO
the satisfaction OF Congress-which
is now less in favor OF passing a new
tax bill before adjourninE than 1t
was when the discussion began.
The iabors Of the House Commit
! tee on Military Affairs ended yester-
day, by reporting a new War Depart
ment Appropriation bill with a total
OF S9.5SS.34s,sOS.G 81 appropriated and.
in addition, S2,46S. $50 .sIl, authorized,
a round number total OF twelve bill
lions This covers the new war
program" until the close OF the next
fiscal year, June 30, 1919. except as
such items OF ordnance, etc, as may
be appropriated for in separate bills.
Through Secretary McAdoo. Secre-
tary Baker submitted TO the House
his estimates for the QuArtermas-
ter's Department, with a total OF S5,-
ISL .91O 900. These estimates he said
had been submitted to the chairman
OF the Military Affairs Committee,
and were to be understood as sub
stitutive instead Of supplemental"
This may mean that they are pro-
vided for in the committee bill. as
far as the committee thought adyis-
able, but that the totals for different
items six OF them from half billion
to billion and a half may be sub
stituted for totals In the bill, II the
House so decides The bill will be
taken UP Tuesday.
As against the attacks of the Cham
berIain committee on the War De-
partmenCs work in aeroplane con-
structlon the House committes re-
port made an encouraging summary
OF results TO date, showing that the
number Of machines in the United
States IS $3.50. while OF 1916 in
France 323 are combat planes" It
is not said that all OF these are
wholly home manufacture. The avia-
tion corps now numbers I36,T8l men
and 12,lO7 officers. with 1854 "fTy-

In view OF this state OF facts
which hs did not expect Anv one to
challenge. the ColonA! wished the
Senate % the United States % de-
eide how It Is permissible for Mr.
Hearst and Mr.. Brisbane 10 remain
at large, continuing q course OF con-
duct and indulginE openly in news
paper editorials which must be shock
ing to all who are right minded TO be
reliably RooseveItian.
At the opening, this letter was com
municated 10 the Senate by Senator
POlndeTter, than whom, perhaps. no
other Senator has made more forclbly
eloquent appeals for an Increasing
use Of jails and penitentIaries in
regulating the usee OF language. On
this application. II was admitted to
the Congressional Record, but the
Postmaster Generals first article was
ordered printed with It, and also Mr.
Hearsrs letter OF May l3, which re-
called the fact that Colonel Roose-
veIt's crusade against "malefactors OF
great wealth" closed with a permit to
the Steel Trust TO pscIry and annex
the competing Tennessee Coal and
Iron Company.
Except as the Colonel thus diverted
attention from finance, the day a. the
Capitol afforded little diversion from
the war policies and sum totals which
are deciding destiny. Tho Capitol
was moro engrossed in the proba-
bility or having to provide new war
taxes during this session than in any
thing else The conclusion for the
day was reached at meeting in
the rooms Of the Senate Finance Com
rnittee. with Mr.. Eitchin present to
represent the House. and Republican
members OF the committee partIci-
pafinE. II had been understood with
them that the President would ap-
prove deterring the new revenue bill
10 an extra session. II assured that
this represented the Judgment and
wishes Of Congress. After encour-
aging the Democrats TO do every
thing possible to defer the bill, they
suddenly assumed the attitude OF en-
tire aloofness. As their position was
defined in a statement from Senator
GaIIinger. they were prepared to CO.
operate in whatever program the
Democrats might decide on, but not
70 assume any respon sibility for Il
r rhatever Senstor GallinEer had
