The Kaiser's American dentist, q
man by the name Of Davis, has just
returned from Germany. There are
hundreds of American dentists, who
have been pressing their Congress
men here to be assigned to duty,
who would like to have the assign
ment this dentist had. They would
avail themselves of the opportunity

would worry nobody afterwards.
Those who have been contending
that our House of Representatives
4 is too large-and we have thought
this at times-should read today's
item about charging the Reichstag
from 397 to AL members. And in
Germany they call it "a concession
to democracy"
A total OF $4,000 applications for
divorce were filed in Petrograd
when the laws were simplified. No
such ill-effects will follow the ex-
tension Of democracy in other coun-
tries, we hope. Congress certainly
will not lend aid to any scheme for
national divorce legislation though
the attempt has been made in the
past
General Kuhn. Just back from

drink.
With the coming Of spring are

the extinction Of Hohenzollernism,

1t would have done no harm had

Car Service Threatened by Strike.
The possibility Of a strike is i'm

OF Congress taking UP the difficulty
1t is this BELIEF that has served to
, stiffen the union officials. One of them
discussing the situation with a Wash

ing said:
Relations between tGe employees

That is the main demand Of the union
is we expect little difficulty in ad-
iusting minor differences.
Car Employees Feel CONFIDENT.
what inspires the men with con-
idence is the fact that Senators
Johnson. Pittnlan, King and others
who gave ungrudingly of their valu-
Isle time to the exhaustive inyesti-
cation Of the conditions of street car
employees, know the facts.
''As an officer of the union, ] feel

Government Sends
First Coal Train.

Washington. Jan. /. - Ceal trains
went forward today under new gov
ernment orders based on the belief OF
Director General McAdoo that rail-
road congestion rather than actual
shortage is responsible for the fuel
famine in many districts.
Upon receipt of reports that hun
dreds of loaded coal cars We're stalled
on sidings behind long strings of cars
containing shipments Of higher prefer
ential rating than coal. all existing
priority orders for the entire country
were suspended by Robert $. Lovett,
priority director of the war industries
board, on recommendation of the di-
rector general. This Is expected to re-
suit in quicker movement of the en-
tire mass of eangested freight whose
slnggishness has been caused largely
by multiplicity of priority orders.
