For the Good of
 The Community

LEAVING passed through six months extra session without doing anything towards placing the United States on a stable business basis or helpful in restoring devastated Europe and putting world commerce on a substantial footing, the Congress of the United States, which reconvened last Monday, is faced with the great est problems that ever confronted any Congress: Railroads, labor unrest demoralized trade conditions, pauperized nations Of Europe, de- stroyed machinery, anarchy ridden countries, ocean shipping and scores Of other questions that must be settled before this country can set tie down to business on permanent basls are to engage the attention of the nations lawmakers. The treaty of peace including the League of Nations covenant, is yet to be disposed of, and upon the disposition of that business the world over awaits with more or less impatience.
 That there can be no stability in business or industry until these questions are finally settled is the opinion of leading men of affairs all over the country.
 The Philadelphia Commercial Museum, which collects and distributes trade information from all countries of the earth, and comprises among it's membership and correspondents leading manufacturers, financiers and business men of the United States and other countries, has is- sued bulletin on the present Sltuat1On and the urgent need of prompt action by Congress on the several vital questions before it. In it's bull letin the Museum, under the caption, Congress on Trial" says:
 "The utmost need of the world today is polit- ical stability and the United States has no choice in the matter but to back up with it's co-opera- tion and influence the efforts which European nations are making to establish the basis for that stability Only less is the need of some arrange ment which will provide for and give stability to international finances and credits, and in this matter the United States has no choice but to play most important part, if in fact it must not take the lead. Political stability cannot be re- stored until treaty of peace acceptable in the main to all the other powers is in effect. Finan- cial arrangements will not be entered into until there is some guarantee of the peace and until the formation of the necessary banking ma- chinery is authorized and encouraged The de- cision in both matters now rests with Congress -the treaty with the Senate, the financial ma- chinery with the Senate and House.
 Probably no other Congress in the history of the country has had the same opportunity, first, of helping to restore the political and economic equilibrium of the world, and, second, of pro- noting the political, financial and commercial relations of this country with other countries; or, as alternatives, of encouraging the disinte- grafton threatening Europe, and of destroying the present international relations of this coun- try, as will the Congress which reconvenes De- cember first At no other time in the history of the world have the hopes and fears of other na- 4rOr>oo >lD.o-
