When Is the End?

Does the signing of the peace
treaty mark the ending of the war
within the meaning of the statute?
That is a question which will have
an important bearing upon the ac-
Invites of government organizations
created for war work, such as the
food and fuel administrations war
trade board and war finance corpo-
ration. Practically all of these or
carnations cease to exist, accord
ing to the laws creating them. at
the end of the war or at the expira-
ton of certain periods following the
end of the war. Consequently it
will have to be determined soon
whether the signing of the peace
treaty really ends the war or whether
the end is not formally reached un-
til the treaty is ratified
If the latter construction should
be placed upon these statutory pro-
visions, it would mean that a num-
Der of the war boards could con-
tinue to function during the time
that the treaty is under considera-
ton by the Senate. despite the gen.
eral demand by the public for their
elimination. Whatever official con-
struction may be given, literally and
actually the war is over, as every
one knows. But if it should be
held that the end of the war, within
the meaning of the congressional
is not reached until rat
itication is accomplished. then Con-
press should proceed at once with
the repeal of war legislation and the
passage of resolutions winding up
the affairs of the war organizations.
There is no further need of them |
and there is no justification for the |
expense of keeping them up
