New-York tribune., 1919-01-19

President Poincare said:
"Gentlemcn France greots and
thanks you for having chosen as the
seat of your labors the city which
for more than four years the enemy
has made hs principal military OBJ
jective and which the valor Of the
Allied armies has VIGOROUSLY de-
Tended against increasingly renewed
OifensiVes
Permit me TO see in your decision
the homage of all the nations that
you represent toward a country which
more than any other has endured the
sutferings Of war, Of which entire
provinces have been transformed into
a vast battlefield and have been sys
tematically laid waste by the invader,
and which has paid the human trib
ute in death.
''France has borne these enormous
sacrifices, although she had not the
slightest responsibility for the
frightful catastrophe which has over
whelmed the universe. And at the
moment when the cycle of horror is
ending, all the powers whose dele
gates are assembled here may acquit
themselves of any share in the
crime which has resulted in so un
precedented disaster. What gives
You the authority to establish a peace
of justice is the fact that none OF
tho peoples of whom you are the
delegates has had any part in the
injustice. Humanity can place con-
idence in you because you are not
among those who have outraged the
rights Of humanity.

WILSON FACES BIG
TASK IN CONGRESS
Is THIRD PRESIDENT TO FIND
BOTH HOUSES IN or.
POSITION.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-With the
meeting of the new congress in ex-
tracrdinary session last Monday, the
country for the third time since the
foundation of the republic faces a sit
uation where a president Of the United
States is directing the affairs of gov
eminent with congress politically
hostile in both branches.
1t is altogether probable the fears
and croakings are groundless; never
theless the fact remains that many
men who will figure more or less con-
spicuously in the activities Of the next
few months constantly are barking
back to the exciting days of the 39th
and 40th congresses.
These sessions were held imm ediate-
ly following the Civil war and, just
as at present, reconstruction policies
following a great war were to the
forefront of public discussion. There
are many public men who express the
opinion that the excitement of the Pc
Rod Immediately following the Civil
war is to find duplicate in differ
ences of opinion this year between
the president and congress over re-
construction policies. Others think
that while the approaching session
will be one filed with stirring action.

EXTRA SESSION OF
CONGRESS OPENS
REPUBLICAN ORGANIZATION IN
CONTROL OF BOTH HOUSES
PRESIDENT ABSENT.

The extra session Of congress be-
gan its sessions Monday with the Re-
publcans in control of both houses,
Senator Cummins being elected pres.
ident pro tempore of the senate by a
margin of five votes, and Representa-
tive Gillette speaker OF the house, in
place of Champ Clark, speaker for the
past eight years.
The immediate work before con-
gress, the sixty-sixth of the American
republic, is passage before July / Of
seven regular annual appropriation
bills which failed in the filibuster last
March. After that will come consid-
Grafton of the peace treaty and cove
nant OF the league of nations, and
railroad. shipping. revenue, woman
suffrage, prohibition, army and navy
and much other legislation.
Many inquiries, particularly into
war activities. also are expected. The
Republicans, for the first time since
1911. have majorities in both branch
es of congress. In the house they
have margin of 80 votes, but in the
senate their majority is only two.
Republican action promises. how
ever, to be restrained by President
Wilson's veto power as a two-thirds
vote is necessary to override a veto.
Monday was the first time in the
nations history that congress had
convened with president in Europe
and his opening message cabled from
foreign soil. The presidents mes
sage, cabled from Paris. was sent to
congress Tuesday and was the first
he had not delivered personally since
he became chief executive.
One of the first questions scheduled
for disposition is the woman suffrage
resolution proposing a constitutional
amendment. The two-thirds vote
necessary for its adoption is regarded
generally as assured.
Prohibition legislation for enforce
ment of war time prohibition and the
permanent constitutional measures is
expected to receive early attention.

the hope of embarrassing the admin
istratiOn.
At the present time matters OF
vital Importance to the country are
pending and calling for legislative
action. 1t is to be hoped, therefore,
that congress and the White House
will not become hopelessly dead
locked in their struggle for suprem-
Iacy. REIMBURSEMENT legislation re-
lating to the railroads. the merchant
marine, the wires, labor and educa-
ton are among a mass Of other mat
ters standing out as imperative.
During the last six years the pres
ident's party has controlled both
houses by substantial working ma
jorities. In the present congress the
house has in 1t 238 Republicans and
1913 Democrats. The remaining four
members of the house are scattered
among the various independents The
senate Is ade up of 40 Republicans
and AZ Democrats. The margin Of
control in the senate is too close for
comfort.
While the Republicans have or
ganized the new senate it is admit
ted by them the party majority is a
paper one only. The scant majority
OF two includes such malcontents as
La Toilette of Wisconsin and Gronna
of North Dakota. These two sena-
tors voted with the Republicans on
the question of organization control.
Beyond that no one knows what they
will do except the certainty they will
play their own personal games. It
lis not expected either will stand
hitched on any program or policy de-
sired by the Republican majority.
La Toilette is now constantly
being suggested as the possible can
didate for president on the Socialistic
ticket in 1920. The leading Socialist
papers are suggesting that La Fol-
llette may see the whole light" in
time to make him wholly acceptable
as the Socialist leader in the next
national campaign. Gronna comes
