Washingts0, Nov. 15.-The United
States and the allies will see 10 it that
rolling stock provisions of tEA armis-
tice do not work an undue hardship on
Germany, provided that nation does
its utmost to maintain order. This un-
officially. is the government attitude
toward the German woman's wireless
appeal to Mrs. Woodrow Wilson and
Miss Jane Addams. of Hull House,
Chicago. received by the war depart-
ment overnight. The appeal declared
that German women had been starv-
ing for years. and would now die from
hunger "by millions" if the associated
governments did not relax the stipu-
lations as to seizure Of railway mater

1t was indicated here that the gov

REVOLT IN U. S. WEARY DAYS NOW
Congress Expects One When 1t
Meets in March.
Capper of Kansas May Be One
of the Leaders.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Congress is
anticipating a little revolution all of
it's own when it convenes to organize
March next.
First rumblings Of progressives' in
tention to play an important part in
the organization and naming of COM
mittees by Republicd ms are now being
heard in the capital cloak rooms.
There is a strong progressive faction
in the senate, including Borah, Ken
yon, Norris. Lafoilette- and Grona
(who generally votes with Lafollette),
johnson of California and McNary of
Oregon. Capper of Kansas is expect
ed to line up with this group.
This group privately admits 1t Is
preparing to demand recognition and
ample representation on those COM
mittees which will handle reconstruct
ton legislation. Many of its person
mel are strong government ownership
advocates as opposed to the Lodge,
Penrose, Brandegee majority group.
While the house situation is more
stable, the senate progressives believe
that. if their stand is made forceful
enough the agitation for recognition
will spread to progressives of the
house.
Already there are signs in the lower
branch of coming upheaval. The
istering cloak room opposition to the
selection of Mann as speaker declar-
ing such choice would mean the Sc
lection of a Republican Of the "old
school, for f1oor leader. Also the
progressives in the house, including
members of the Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin. Kansas Nebraska and Dakota del
egations. are prepared to fight for re-
, tention of the present system by which
a committee makes committee assign
ments instead of the speaker, which
they say Mann opposes.
The opposition to Mann. however,
will not take definite shape until his
physicians announce their verdict on
whether he is physically able to take
the job.
Campbell Mentioned.
Meantime. other candidates are mo-
bilizing their respective supports.
Madden of Illinois will be a candidate
/ if Mann drops out. F'ess of Ohio says
he is not a candidate. but he COM
mands progressive support and may
| be persuaded to run. Longworth OF
! Ohio; Moore. Pennsylvania; Campbell
! Kansas; Towner. Iowa; and Gillett
/ Massachusetts. and other candidates
: are mentioned. The latter on point
of length of service would have next
/ call to Mann on the place. but would
not be favored by the western mem
berShip.
