BRIcANDAGE

n N their mad efforts to har.

show their hatred of the
league of nations certain Re-
publican senators, given license
by the Republican senate orga-
nization, used brigand tactics
yesterday. They defeated the
army and navy appropriations,
the railroad appropriation and
much other legislation of conse-
Quence. 1t is a line of action
the country will generally con-
denim as about the limit of
ruthlessness.
In refusing to give in to the
threats of the obstructionists
President Wilson took the only
course possible. Under the
constitution and His oath of Of

sponsible for calling a special
session of congress. The repub-

him into giving up power

authority of the nation. Being
unable to bulldoze him they

government in a spirit of re-

the senate. The direct action
advocates have nothing on men
like Sherman ct al. They are
defying the constitution by try
ing to appropriate to them
selves powers which are lodged
in the executive. The Repub-
lican senate organization wants
to be the peace delegation and
the president. They are
pledged to fight the league of
nations covenant before the
subject has been presented to
them. The jury has agreed on
its verdict without hearing the
evidence.
The senatorial obstruction
lists are vindieating President
Wilson for asking the country
to select a congress with a DEM
ocratic majority. If they keep
up their work they will drive
the president to run for a third
term and be elected.

cussing the work of the alien property
custodian's office.
when the enemy character of per-
sons rests solely upon their residence,
It will be seen that by change Of resi-
dence into nonenemy territory, they
lose their enemy character. The at
torney-general has adopted n liberal In
depreciation of the act, which permits
such persons when they lose their
enemy character, to be treated as II
they had always been nonenemy per-
sons and to have their property re-
turned upon a proper showing Of loyal
ty."
American citizens who lost their
property in Germany will be allowed,
In the opinion of the attorney-general,
to present claims to this government,
which will see they are reimbursed
from German holdings here. He said
that would be much better than turn
ing property back to Germans, for he
foresaw that the Germans would not be
welcome as business men upon Ameri-
can soil within the next decade, at
least.

Palmer. This German prince had put

any interest or dividends out Of It: he
had selected the German consul at Pen

found that his company had bitterly
resisted an American railroad build
ing a line across his property or across
the property of his neighbours to reach
st. Andrew bay, on which his prop
erty was located. 1t so happens that
ST. Andrews bay is the best harbor on
