Mr.. Frank T. Bentley of Illinois
said something" before the Inter
state Commerce Committee of the
House yesterday. It was charac-
teristic Of the day at the Capitol.
1--WE, find we have lost control of
our business. We are at the mercy
Of. circumstances" he said.
He was not attacking the Ad-
ministration. On the contrary he
praised the work done in the at
tempt to restore what Administra-
ton documents call "seh-determi-
nation"
Mr.. Bentley was attempting to
sum up the conditions of the United
States in their present connection
with Europe. He was speaking
from the standpoint Of his expert
ence as traffic manager of the Hi
nois Steel Company. 1t was part of
his business to learn how completely
all the machinery of the world, as
made for peace, is now out Of work
ing order. He described it in con-
nection with details Of attempts to
rush munitions to the allies and to
move ordinary freight against lines
"glutted" to such an extent that it
was necessary to ship far around
the glut. Perhaps a barrel Of -four,
from its beginning as wheat, might
now travel two or three times as
far as usual before it becomes
bread at the bakers. So Of nearly
everything else. In spite Of prior
ity orders" and official mandates,
1--WE have lost control Of our bust
ness" as q country. "We are at the
mercy Of circumstances" for the
time being, as Europe is, as every
country is which has come to de-
pend on the machinery of modern
civilization" There is no helping 1t
until we once more get control Of
circumstances. The best thing pos
sible is to take it for granted and
make the best of it. The first need
is patience. The most urgent need
is the restoration of civilization,
which alone will bring circumstances
back under control.
In spite of the Senate's attempts
TO "get back to business" on "non-
essential" Indians and the Indian APP
preparation bill, war and politics
were circumstances beyond control
until late in the day. There was
nothing new to say, but this made
no difference. The issue of the Wis
co.lsin Senatorial election ragged
again, interspersed with dispute on
the progress of shipbrilding and Of
aeroplanes. 80
Chairman Fletcher, Of the Com
nnittee on Commerce, repelled attack
on the Administration for delay in !
getting ships ready bv citing the
records of the defeat OF the first |
preparedness" bill for beginning to |
build merchant marine. He argued
that had we begun then. as proposed,
we might now realize all that is de-
or more. Senator Reed re-
buked trivial partisanship. Senator
Overman, with the delay in sending
aeroplanes to France under consider
alton, exhibited part Of steel frame
on which success for the aeroplane
and the life Of the aviator depends.
He showed that the steel had been
treacherously cut and the cavity
filled with lead, so as to break in
use. He named the company in /
whose works this had occurred, and
allied on the Military Committee to
investigate the directors with names
which sound foreign. AS the dis
,overy Of treachery necessitated ex-
and testing all frames with
he utmost care, the inference was

After two days of what Senator
Ashurst called miserable twaddle,"

tinction between unifying and CO.

were in danger of greater odium by
charges against them, Senator Owen

loyalty they had shown and were
showing to the country of their adop-
