For the first eleven months of this
war the ineificiency at vital points III
our government, notably in the matter
of shipping and in the management of
the War Department, was worse than
anything Russia herself has ever seen.
Nearly thirteen months have passed
since Germany went to war with us
and we broke relations with Germany,
and afterward timidly and helplessly
drifted stern foremost into what we
styled a formal state Of war.
This is the peoples war. 1t is not
the Presidents war any more than it
is Congress- war--it is Americas war.
We are in honor bound in conducting
it to stand by every official who does
we'll and against every official who
fails to do we'll. Any other attitude is
scrvilc attitude. Congress on the
whole has done well. Until Congress
finally asserted itself, the executive
branch of the government did very
badly. If Congress follows the lead
outlined in the Chamberlain bill it will
continue to do we'll; if it follows the
lead outlined in Senator Overman's bill
it will condone the inefficiency of the
past and put a premium upon ineffi-
cheney in the future. Congress must
not shirk its duty to the people. Let
