That motorists are the heaviest

Republicans, declared It would cripple
industry. Fordney said the present
generation was already paying so per
cent of the money cost of the war In
addition to its blood. Representative
Huddleston. of Alabama, arose 10 a
spirited reply. saying: -
There are $4,000 American million
aires. three times as many as there
were before the war began. The next
taxable income of corporations for the
year 1917 Rs reported officially to the
treasury department of sS.6s3, 000, 900.
yet we are told these poverty -stricken
concerns cannot afford to pay larger
share of the war cost.
1.-THE process of manufacturing war
millionaires is going on with increased
momentum. The people who ought to
pay for this war are the people who
are making money out of It. For a
man to come out of this bloody strug-
gle richer and better off than when 1t
started Is indefensible."
The galleries applauded Huddleston
when he finished.

ROCKIES ELBOW THREATENS
TO BECOME CAMP EPIDEMIC

Rockies elbow" the disease that
selectives last fall shortly after the
first drafts were sent to cantonments.
Is likely to become prevalent again.
The disease never was heard Of until
the hundreds Of thousands Of drafted
men piled into camp. donned uniforms
and began. saluting every one wearing
leather puttees. Then the ailment be-
came manifest in a stiffness and lame
ness of the right elbow. caused by
the efforts Of rockies to put the proper
snappiness and jerk into the salute.
Now the inspector generals depart
ment has decided that "slovenly, in
impress officers Of allied nations ia
vorably, and officers at all camps and
cantonments have received orders to
drill their men in the proper manner
of saluting. the same as the men are
drilled in the manual and other mill
tary work.
Lack Of uniformity in dress and
equipment is also criticised by the in
spector generals department. A War
Department memorandum that has been
communicated to all division COM
manders says:
by enjoined to make instruction in
saluting fixed part of their drills
until every officer, enlisted man and
organization can with certitude be
pronounced proficient in salutes. This
part Of the soldiers training must be
considered vital instead Of casual.

Russians an Example.

The great Russian commonwealth Of
fers a lamentable example of the effect
of following the opposite course and
of vibrating between the tyranny Of an
autocracy and the tyranny of mob,
THE bolsheviki announced that they
stood for liberty. and during the last
six months they have been. with the
exception Of the autocracy of the Ho-
|henzolIerns, the most dangerous Of all
the enemies of liberty. In interna-
tionaI matters they proved false to all
|liberty-loving nations. and they be-
trayed their own country, and sought
to betray all the free nations, into tho
hands of Germany. They were first the
tools and allies. and then the dupes and
victims, of Prussian militarism. With
in their own boundaries they have
brought Russia to the verge OF COM
plete dissolution.
Their government was a squalid des-
potism. They trampled freedom under
foot .aey were no less the enemies
of human rights than of property
rights There is in this country just
as little room for the analogues of the
bolsheviki as there is for the analogues
of the Romanoffs. If we are wise we
shall not permit ourselves to be with
held from a forward movement by the
Romanoffs of our own social and in
dustrial system, and neither shall we
permit ourselves to be plunged into the
abyss of fathomless disaster into
which we would be plunged if we fol-
lowed the American bolsheviki.'

MANY COME AND return
TO HOMES DISAPPOINTED
Civil Service Heads Say Local Con-
ditions Urge Passage Of Fed
eral Housing Bill.

Young women come to Washington
from all parts of the country to accept
government positions and return nome
after a few weeks because of inability
to find comfortable accommodations,
an official of the Civil Service Commits
sion asserted today in urging Congress
to act on the s1o.oo0.000 housing ap-
preparation for Washington.
I'VE are working on treadmlll,
said this official. Every time a train
brings in an additional detachment OF
young women another train starts Tor
home with girls who have become dis
couraged."
The heads of the Civil Service Com
mission believe that in the temporary
hotels to be erected with the money
Congress appropriates the young wom-
en- will be able to overcome the lone
someness which has prompted many TO
return home after spending ie"
weeks in boarding house.
These hotels, according TO present
plans, will have assembly rooms where
the girls can gather In the evenings to
sew or otherwise entertain themselves.
One official of the commission est1-
mated that since the government began
to recruit stenographers and typ1sts
for war work here approximately
50. 100000 worth of free advertising has
been given the commission by newspa-
pers and periodicals throughout the
country.
Much of this has been wasted SO
far" he continued, because of our in
ability to keep in Washington the girls
who are given appointments. A large
percentage of young women who pass
the examination continue to decline ap-
pointments because of a fear Of not
finding living accommodations In
crowded Washington"
William H. Baldwin, chairman OF the
District Council of Defense, said this
