Many of the older members OF con-

cap: "He has had It long enough"
That is a statement that gets circu-

has been in congress eight or ten years.
1t does not affect the member who rep
resents constituency which believes
in keeping n man in service term after
term rather than changing to crafty
the ambition of some particular politi-
clan. But for the most part congress
is made up OF men who do not serve

The day that Senator Gore started
his remarks on the veto of the $40
wheat provision in the agricultural ap-
preparation hill he was just 'going
good" md due 70 say some very en-
phatic things when Senator Ashurst of
Arizona raised point of order and
forced an adjournment of the senate.
The next time the senate met Gore re-
sumed and remarked that when he was
interrupted he was more or less sur
charged with the subject. The senate
and the country will never know what
an intellectual and rhetorical treat was
denied them on account of that inter-
ruption." And then he also remarked: :.
"As | was saying when the Ashurst
rebellion broke out" From remarks
that were made by the Oklahoma SEN
ator previous to the "Ashurst rebel
lion" his speech upon the second at

Food prices In Washington range
from 10 to 40 per cent higher
on all articles than in other cities
of the United States. In some
Instances it is found that the chief
staples cost nearly twice as much at
the retail places in Washington as
they do In some of the middle West
ern cities. Even after making allow
ance for freight, the range of prices Is
altogether abnormal and shows that
there is a concerted effort In the ma
tfonat capital to profiteer in foods. 1t
has reached a point where the COM
plants are forcing official action ana
It is altogether likely that In addi-
ton to legislation which struck at the
rent profiteer In the national capital,
there will be some kind of law
passed to save the people who are
compelled to live in Washington from
paying this tribute to those who
handle the food supply of theecity.
Investigation thus far does not place
the blame upon farmers, because the
farmers in the vicinity Of Washington
do not produce enough food to affect
the prices. The supply grown in the
region surrounding Washington is linn
tied and in many cases absorbed by
cities which can be easily reached by
water Baltimore, Philadelphia and
New York.

It was Vice President Marshall who
once remarked to a Republican sena-
tor after the late Senator Newlands
had made an assault upon the actions
and policies of the Democratic party,
that he (MarshalD believed that
"Newlands is the original fat boy who
spilled the beans" Probably In these
fater days the vice president would
be willing to transfer his remark to
the blind senator from Oklahoma.
Early in his speech criticising the
veto by the president of the S2.4O
wheat proposition Senator Gore re-
marked: "If the next congress goes
Republican 1t will be due to this veto
message"
That remark caused deal Of criti-
cism among Senator Cores party as
sociates. Quite a number of senators
and representatives of wheat growing
districts have in their minds the pos
sibility that the veto may work some
harm, but none of them believes that
it was a good idea to advertise the
fact.

There are states and regions In this
country which will have to make a
special effort to meet the Fourth Lib
erty loan to the extent that they did
not in regard to the other loans. These
states which are producing little or
nothing, and are getting none of it
back" as the saying is In regard to
money at the present time. will have
to make sacrifices to subscribe very
heavily for the next loan. AS Sena-
tor Smoot of Utah remarked, his state
has already paid, in Liberty loans.
Red Cross and war savings. more
than $44,O0000o, which is 500 for
every man, woman and child in the
state. Smoot said that as scarcely
anything was being returned to the
state on account of the war this
money was drain which could not
be replaced. At the same time It is
expected that everybody will do his
level best to make the next loan a
success.
