WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. - Congress
after its brief vacation over the election
period will be back on the Job tomorrow.
No legislative programme other than
passage OF the big supply bills and

the way has yet been mapped out.

are expected to result In a conference
of Congress leaders Of both parties to-
morrow or Tuesday. with probable
consultation with President Wilson to
ascertain just what will be required of
Congress to meet the rapidly changing
situation.
1t In practically a certainty that little
legislation to deal with general condi-
lions after the war period Will be con-
sdered. For one thing there will not
be much time for II. Another reason Is
that the present minority will insist on
the fullest investigation into everything
that is sought. This will take time
and one of its results will be to put the
responsibility for framing reconstruc-
ton legislation on the next Congress.

However the Senate and House lead
ers who are in Washington. while they
have had no word from the White House
feel certain that the peace Developments
and the developments within Germany
may necessitate early enactment OF
special legislation TO take care OF what
ever situation may arise.
One thing which may become neces-
sary Is authorization for the employment

agents, who will take him to Fort Ogle-

Then he made II known that his father

Matana came to this country a short
time before the war. On the steamshlp
he met wealthy woman who lived in
Rochester, His winning ways led her
to pay his tuition at the University OF

MADISON, Wis. Nov. o.-The En-

a constitutional convention TO be held

Thus are gathered into the historic

Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria. The
collapse Of the Turkish Sultanate Is GER
tain. but the form which the reor-
ganized government will take in Asia
Is hard to tell.
From now on we are likely to be
more concerned with the violent reaction
from one man autocracy to the despot-
ism Of the mob. Bolshevikism stalks in
Germany and in Austria. Allowed run
sway, It will stop short of nothing but
a massacre Of all who are respectable
thrifty, educated or decent.
Those who expect our troops to be
brought back at once are likely 10 De

pressing need of our allies quickly 10

armies to the work OF Reconstruction
This need Is particularly Sreat In Bel
GUM, France, Italy and Serbia. Durins
the time when the terms OF the treaty
are being formulated and after the
treaty has been signed large armies
must garrison the fortresscs and other
places held as guarantees OF the per-
Torrance of the treaty. Moreover. it
may be that our armies will be needed
also TO aid Russia to her feet again
against the Bolshevik enemies OF man.

hands OF anarchy and mob rule.
Autocracy in the world Is ended. The
world had paid high price. but In tie
end it will DO worth It. The swinging
OF the pendulum from the despotism OF
the Emperor to the despotism Of the
Soviet is only q phase Of the struggle
toward popular government and liberty
