The Kitchin- Simmons Measure.

The new revenue measure is open TO
criticism, and there viii be criticism
a-plenty. individuals and corpora
lions alike will murmur. Still, they
! Will "pay the freight There is no
way around. The government needs
the money, and this measure repre-
sents the best judgment of Congress
in the circumstances for raising it.
1t is close to a year now since this
task was first taken up. The call then
was for a war measure We were in
the thick of armed strife; and expend-
lures were sky high, and still climb
ing. The House hurried But the
hurry produced delay BY the time
the Houses work reached the Senate
the business world was in an uproar
of protest; and the Senate very prop
eriy and wisely gave heed.
Then came sudden change in the
war situation, Transforming a dark
into bright prospect. What had ap-
peared diseouraging took on the OPP
posite aspect. Hopes of an early peace
dawned, and in a few weeks hostili-
ties ceased.
The change necessarily influenced
the action of the Senate. The Houses
work underwent considerable revision;
and, at last, measure, concededly bet
ter than the Houses measure; was sent
TO conference. The conference did its
part with reasonable expedition, and
the end was reached
There is something in all this for the
consider. They will have a revenue
task TO execute of larger proportions
and greater difficulties than the one
just finished. They must take the
tariff in hand; and the tariff now is
more complicated proposition than
ever before. Indeed, it is, in way
and to degree, new proposition. IT
has more angles than ever before; and
all of them must be canyassed and
studied before a satisfactory revision
of the existing tariff law can be
shaped.
For this reason, with others, the
apparent blasting of the hope of an
early session of the new Congress is
regrettable. The body charged with
the task should be set about it at once.
There is good deal to be done. A
presidential campaign is approaching,
and whatever is done or left undone
about the tariff in the coming twelve
or fifteen months viii enter into that.
Both parties will take into account in
! their struggle for complete control of
the government the record of the
President no less than that of Con-
gress with respect to the tariff as af-
fected by the war and the wide over:
turn the war has caused.

Hustle on Capitol Hill.

-, In changing the dairy meeting hour
from noon to IL o'clock and ordering
night sessions, the Senate has taken
the right step, and one that should
accomplish the purpose in view.
II may be said, less in complaint
than in plain statement of fact, that
at every short session of Congress the
supply bills are late in reaching the
Senate. The House moves off slowly
too slowly. The Christmas holiday
which ought to be abolished-inter-
feres with good start. AS result,
the middle of January is often reach
ed before the House gets into its
stride.
This puts burden upon the Senate.
When its time for action comes it must
hustle, with a capital II, if the table
is to be cleared in time for adjourn
msnt without day.
The Senate has reputation as a slow
motioned body. Jokes are cracked on
the subject. As matter of fact, how
ever, it can be, and often is, very
brisk body. 1t can transact a good
deal of business in a very short time,
and has often done so.
Tia present task Will not test the
; Hsnats bsyond many past tests. 1t is
formidable, but not dismaying. It
; can be performed; and the Senate is

School Pay and the Senate.

Senator Penrose has introduced an
4nendment to the District appropria-
tsa bin giving the public school
teachers Of the District who receive
pp to and including 81 900 in salary
- increase Of $500 a year, in addi-
ton to the proposed $240 bonus. Some
sueh provision should be adopted by
the Senate and carried through con-
ferepce into the law. The failure of
the Senate appropriations committee
e make any recommendation for an
increase in the teachers pay scale was
. disappointment, and it is stiH hoped
that the Senate win recognize the ur-
gent need of more liberal range of
school pay and provide it by change
IN the bill when it comes up for con-
sideration. Several proposed sehed-
ules have been urged, and there is, it
10 true, some confusion in the matter
of the pay situation, but there can

0Hr Shocking Court-Martial Code.

From time to time during the
American participation in the war.
while the Army was in the making
and was being sent overseas for active
sentences administered to offenders
against the military regulations. Court
martial proceedings were not reported
in detail and the public gained only
an imperfect knowledge of the man
ner in which discipline was being en-
forced in the camps. There were
signs, however, that the tendency of
the procedure was toward harshness
in the application of penalties for
what appeared to be trihng offenses.
In the circumstances it was impossi-
bic to determine whether the punish
ments were unduly severe.
Now in the testimony of the acting
judge advocate general of the Army
before Senate committee in hearing
on bill to revise court-martial pro-
cedure is afforded evidence that the
punitive methods were Shoekingly
drastic and that much grave injustice
was done to men whose offenses were
of slight and actually trivial char
aeter. The recital of specific eases by
Gen. Ansell is reported to have as
founded the members of the committee.
and as these instances were cited from
the records they must be accepted as
authentic.
Making every possible allowance for
the inexperience of officers newly com
missiened, and for the particular ne
cessity of establishing and maintain
ing high standard of discipline in
an Army created as was that of the
United States by a new and sweeping
inclusion of all classes of men in. the
ranks, the record thus revealed is
amazing and distressing.
Inasmueh as the penalties which
form the subject of the present dis
closures were all approved by higher
authority, those who administered
them are immune from reprimand
But there is now possible PREPARATION
Tor those who have suffered from this
unwarranted severity, and the hope is
that it viii be assured by a prompt
enactment of the pending bill and its
thorough application, with provision
for the review and, when justified,
modification of the sentences imposed
fer misdemeanors magnifed into major
e&enses.

q large profit they may escape penal
ties. The important thing is to check
the evil at the source and insure a
scrutiny over stock promotion schemes.
Any legitimate enterprise can estab-
lish its good faith and make known
the fact of approval by the Treasury,
which Endorsement will stand as an as
surance to the public, though, of course,
not guarantee of profits. The gov
eminent cannot underwrite financial
transactions, but it can and should
have an opportunity to differentiate
between obviously fictitious schemes
and those that are legitimate.
Now that the war is over there Will
probably be many efforts to get the
public's money by all sorts of attrae
lively worded invitations to invest.
Some of these will be entirely legiti-
mate and honest. Others, if there is
no check, will be frauds. The public
cannot discriminate without guidance.
Any person with money to invest
should as measure of ordinary pre-
caution consult banker If the bill
proposed by Secretary Glass is en-
acted the public Will be safeguarded by
being assured that all stock selling
schemes lacking Treasury approval
are to he regarded with suspicion, on

that have foundation in honest com
