take the usual course. It viii be re-
1errsd to the finance committee-whieh
may or may not grant hearings on the
Houses hearihgs-and then In time be
reported for general debate. This de-
bate will not be subject to cloture,
properly so-called. Mr.. Underwood's
recent proposition for limiting debate
in the Senate: was defeated. The same
rules that governed last years revenue
bill in the Senate will govern this
years bill.
First and last, therefore, much work
confronts Congress on this one meas
ure alone, and before the measure can
be laid, before the President for his
signature. He, it is stated, will take
no part in the shaping Of the bill at
any stage Of the game. He has adj
vised Congress of the governments
revenue needs, and asked that they be
supplied at this session. With that he
leaves the matter.
The congressional elections are lit
tie more than four months away. They
are very important. But the first con-
sideration is revenue, and Congress
could not afford to subordinate the
governments money needs to anything
else.

War Names.

War nicknames have become so we'll
established that no one now thinks
otherwise of them than as parts Of the
language. "Boche," the early French
name for the German, is definitely ac-
cepted in all ,anti-Teutonic lands.
"Hun" has made its permanent place
as the type title Of the barbaric foe.
"Poilu," which is equivalent to "the
bearded one" is the generic name for
the French soldier. Tommy" has
been the popular name for the British
enlisted man for many years. Sammy"
is q new coinage for the American SOL
dier in this war: arising from mis-
understanding Of the exclamation Of
the French people upon their arrival
"Nos amis," meaning "our friends"
The Germans have done some hickman.
ing, too. So furious were the on
slaughts Of the Scotch troops, SO grim
and thorough was their work, that they
became known by the Huns by q
phrase which is translated ''ladies
from hell,' recognition of their kilt
ed costume. Somewhat similar is the
newly coined German title for the
American marines. These men are now
known by the once scornful but now
respectful enemy as "teufelhunds," or
devil hounds. The wonderful elias
ticity of the German language, chiefly
effected by hyphenation and compound
ing, is likely to be put to a severe
test before the war is over in finding
expressions for a kind Of efficiency
that is in the last analysis superior to
that mathematical precision Of organi.
zaticn Of which Germany boasts 50
highly.

to Nev York, for which the company
charges IS cents, can be sent by mail
just as quickly, and perhaps more
quickly, for 13 cents.
In the absence Of any reservation by
the telegraph company Of right to send
messages from the city Of origin by
mail, acceptance of q message on the
company's blank is q contract to send
by wire, and even though in view OF
the conditions of congestion better
service may actually be rendered by
train messenger than by wire the dis
patch by train is violation Of con-
tract. The company does reserve the
right in the form printed on the back
of the blank to mail night letters at
destination to addresses, but this does
not include train dispatching. As re-
spects the difference between the tele-
graph rate and the postal rate it is
to be borne in mind that longer mes
sage can be sent by post than by wire,
with no addition to the charge, while
Of the message on telegraph
basis causes very material increase
in the fee, at no greater expense to the
company if transmitted by train.
The whole practice is unfair to the
wire patron. 1t is especially unfair if
day kilograms, which are supposedly
sent by wire for delivery ON the same
day, are transmitted by train. If the
telegraph company were to acknowl-
edge its congestion and receive mes
sages explicitly on the basis Of their
possible transmission by train, at the
usual telegraphic rates, there would be
no ground for complaint on the part
Of the sender, thus warned and engag-
ing the service on this contingency.
But the company cannot very we'll thus
proclaim Its purpose to compete
though on the basis Of q wide differ
ence of fee-with the postal service,
which under the law has a monopoly Of
train Communication. The arrests
should have the result Of stopping
practice that has no justification what
ever, however great the congestion Of
the wires.

Business After the War.

s1n time of peace prepare for wal" }"
j. an old adjuration. In time of war
prepare for peace, is proposition now
occupying the attention Of American
manufacturers. This week the sub
ject will be presented to the House
ways and means committee in connec-
ton with the war revenue measure it
is soon to draft.
The manufacturers are right. Now
Is the time for the consideration of
the matter they are concerned about.
The war may not be near its end, but
1t will have an end, and when the end
comes some mighty business problems
will face this country. AS we'll as may
be, the country should be prepared for
them.
Wo were not prepared for war. On
the contrary, we were most lamentably
unprepared. Attention had repeated
" been called to the situation. But
as We were at peace then, course
was taken which assumed that we
should continue at peace. So we drift
ed, until war struck US and forced US
into preparations which. begun in
great haste, have not been as fruitful
as the emergency demanded. Had the
advice of trained soldiers and sailors
and some astute politicians been taken
in good season, the country's condition
today would be much more comfortable
than it is.
This blunder ought not to be re-
peated in the case Of peace. When
peace comes our objects and resources
should be ready. The rehabilitation
Of business will be a worldwide en-
deavor. All business everywhere is
now out of'plumb. Then, there will be
q rush for advantage in the start; and
advantage will lie with the nation or
nations best prepared to improve the
opportunity.
Our business aim for the future is
ambitious, and should be adhered to-.
We should solicit, and secure, a large
share Of the worlds trade. We should
study foreign markets, and how to in
wade them. We should increase our
products Of every kind. And in or
der to succeed we must take into &C.
count the long and large experience
Of those we shall meet abroad as COM
petitors. They are accomplished
traders, and will enter that competi-
ton with an energy born Of the enor-
nous losses tho war has inflicted, and
which they will be keen to repair.

The War Dormitories.

Presidential inspection Of possible
sites for tlormiteries for the woman
war workers is guarantee that these
structures will be located with refer
ence to the comfort and convenience
and suitable environment of their oc-
cupants. 1t is most important that in
the emplacement Of these buildings
care be taken to insure the greatest ac-
cessibility and at the same time not
to lessen the home quality. At best
these temporary housings are make
shifts for those who come here to serve
the government during the war period.
Il is not enough to put them on any
available vacant space. They must be
situated downtown, il possible, and yet
it is not desirable to disfgure the
parks. The Cnion Station plaza has
from the first been favored for this
purpose, as it is not developed as q
reservation and probably will not be
until after the war, owing to the need
Of funds. There can be no objection
to such an emplacement Of temporary
character. IT will have the merits Of
convenience and comfort. It is graft
flying to note that the plan for dor
mitories in Potomac Park has been for
the time abandoned. Such situa-
ton would be the least suitable
Of all suggested. Wherever the
dormitories are located, work upon
them should be started very quickly,
as the need for them is urgent. It is
estimated that for several months new
comers will arrive in Washington at
the rate Of 500 a month, and the pres
ent housing accommodations are very
Gloss to exhaustion. By the time the
new buildings are completed, it is es-
timated, available quarters in private
homes will be all taken. It would have
been better for the government, indeed,
had this work been finished ere now.

Men and Human Beings.

"A man only becomes a human being
when he becomes an officer" Thus a
German lieutenant is quoted as saying
by a Horander who recently returned
from Germany That has been the
Teutonic doctrine for a long time. It
is one Of the cardinal principles of the
militaristie system Of government. It
may be true from the Hun point of
view, but it has fatal weakness in time
Of war prolongation, when food sup
plies are curtailed and millions Of peo-
PIE are undernourished.
A man who is not an officer may not
be human being in the German reck-
oning, but he has q stomach and he
has blood and something in the way of
. braiE. II the stomach is not sup.
piled the physical mechanical system
fails. It will not function. Even a
man who is not an officer cannot live
without eating, fact that has perhaps
been dimly realized lately by the ad-
vocates q the Prussian plan of gov
eminent by force. And when for near
ly four years . whole people are un-
derfed disease develops and not even
the proud words Of an exalted person
age can effect cure. For the com.
bination Of organs known as man can
not live forever on platitudes and
promises.
Germany cannot cure the evils Of
her own creation by making all her
private soldiers officers. There would
still remain some millions Of the non.
human class without food and without
hope Of getting it. And sometimes
such multitudes make trouble.

Sending Telegrams by Train.

While possibly the sending Of tele-
grams from one eastern city to an
other BY train messenger, a practice
:ust disclosed by arrests made by the
post Office authorities, may by the tele-
graph company be considered justifi-
able on the score Of lessening the con-
gsstion Of the wires, now serious ow-
ing TO war conditions, the fact remains
that, this method Of transmission, un-
knowa TO the sender Of the telegram,
10 an imposition. A sender pays the
regular telsgraphie rates for the dis
patch Of his message and expects, and
is by the receipt Of the message and
the taking Of the fee guaranteed, wire
transmission. Yet under the practice
just disclosed he is not given wire
'transmisto1, but 10 given . service that
is no bsttsf than, Il - good q, the

Revenue and the Elections.

The House ways and means COM
mittee will continue for another week
hearings on the revenue question, clos
ing them on the 2sth instant.
A great deal Of information has been
gathered from business sources. A
great deal more is expected. The COM
mittee could not have too much for
the task it faces. Finding billions Of
revenue, even in flush times, SO as not
to cripple or disturb business, or shake
general confidence, is no easy matter.
Business is showing the proper
spirit. In Offering suggestions to the
legislators it goes frankly into its con-
ditions and operations. It does not
"hanker after" taxation, but it has NO
thought Of evading levies. Very prop
erly. it is ssking for equitable assess
ments.
Tho greater and more important the
amount Of this information, the longer
will be the time necessary for Ito di.
gestion BY the committee. How long
is yet to be determined. Presumably,
the committee will take It all into &C.
count in drafting the revenue bill Il
should. In fact, time will be saved
BY that process. Hasty committee

bate, while careful work finds soaA.
