shall be included in the new revenue

One day when the senate was dis
cussing mail facilities and the neces-
sity of soldiers receiving mail more
regularly than they have been since
they went abroad, Senator Nelson of
Minnesota took occasion to utter a
number of pointed remarks. The tenor
of his speech was to the effect that
we ought not to try to coddle the sol
diers too much. While it Is a good
thing for the soldiers to get mail it
is not to be expected that they would
have letter from mother with their
morning coffee each day. 81 remem-
Der when was in the army" said the
Minnesota senator, "that we didn't
have very much for the chaplains to
Go when we were in the field and so
we turned the chaplains into postmas-
ters and they distributed the mail
and became very useful. 1t is a good
thing for the soldiers to get mail, but
the other business of carrying on the
war must not be hampered In order
to carry packages containing sweet
meats and knick-knacks to the soldiers
in France"

VIII congress be considered an es-

be very interesting to 10 senators and
40 representatives, who are not yet
forty-five years of age. When the first

number of members of congress, led by
Speaker Champ Clark, tried to have
the age limit extended to sixty years,
and all the way down to the figure fin
ally agreed upon. At that time quite
number of men vociferously an
nounced that they were willing to take
their chances in the draft 1t will be
interesting to notice whether the
boards will decide that senators and
representatives are engaged in an es-
sential industry. But then it is more
than likely that most of them will es-
cape by being put in what is known as
the deferred classification list.

Americans, both civil officials and

exultation they feel over the sue
cesses of the allies and particularly
the splendid work which Americans
have been doing on the western front.
But all of them feel 1t necessary to
press the soft pedal on their conversa-
ton so as not unduly to elate or excite
the imagination of the people of this
country In regard to future battles.
While there are not many officials of
the present day who have any personal
recollection of what took place during
the Civil war, they are historians
enough to know that on several occa-

Observation-Disclosures of labor
disputes is practically enforced now !;
not quite compulsory arbitration" to
which labor has made considerable OBJ
lection, but it practically amounts to
that. Nearly all of the labor of the
present day is tied up with the war
in one way or another. There can be
no strike of any proportions which
does not affect the war work being
carried on by the government. Con-
sequently it has become necessary for
the government to take up and settle
labor disputes.
After these labor disputes are arbi-
trated by the commission which was
named by the president, there is no le-
gal power to compel men to accept
the decisions. Employers must &C
cept them, because most of the en-
ployers are engaged in doing work nee
essary to carry on the war. But there
is a great moral "compulsion" which
Is sufficient to make the labor men
accept just and equitable conclusions
of the authorities. Public opinion in
this country would not justify a strike
which would interfere with the max
ing of materials necessary to carry
on the war.

Within a few weeks now the SEN
ate of the United States will be up
against prohibition proposition, pure
and simple. The amendment which
has been held in order by vote of the
senate and will be attached to the ag-
ricultural survey bill, is destined to
make the nation bone-dry the last OF
next January, unless something hap
pens. First, the bill can be talked to
death, as there is no agreement to
vote on it; second, it might be vetoed
by the president on the ground that
prohibition at this time would serious
ly interfere with the revenues of the
government. The men who are re-
sponsible for legislating to raise rev.
enue are very much disturbed over the
losses which will be entailed when
prohibition becomes effective. Look
ing ahead as far as 1920, when the pro-
hibition constitutional amendment is
likely to go into effect, these revenue
raisers say that the continuance of the
war beyond that time will make it
extremely difficult for them tc find
methods of taxation to raise enough
money to carry on the government. In
view of this state of affairs, the sena-
tors who are now in Washington have
been looking forward to the coming
prohibition contest with a great deal
of interest.
