WHAT ARE THEY THINKING OFF

No one familiar with the facts
will tax the Washington Post with
undue friendliness to the present
national administration. When,
therefore, this paper propounds
pertinent question to the Repabii-
can Congress, it is likely to be heard
with respect even if the answer is
not immediate and satisfactory.
zone Of the first duties Of Con-
gross is to put teeth into the laws
which will enable the executive to
grasp and throttle radicalism, ex-
pei or imprison anarchists, exter-
inmate preachers Of violence, ex-
clude dangerous aliens and general
ly to clean Americas house," says
the Post.
"What is Congress thinking of,
that it should delay in this matter?"
the paper asks. Then the editorial
indicates one or both Of the causes
in its next question. as it lacking
in Individual or committee initiative
or courage?"
Attorney General Palmer has re-
peatedly pointed out to the Repub-
lican leaders of Congress that addi-
tional legislation is needed to au-
thorize his department to deal with
radicals and "reds." When once the
task has been properly sanctioned
by law there remains the need of
money to enforce the statutes. Con-
gress has refused both the authority
and the funds.

Societies." he went on, "and I here

resolve. You hear me-"
And he got up, gave a hitch at
where the old o. d. belt used to be,
and rambled out to get a pocket
full Of w. s. s. circulars and hunt
up place to "enlist."

President Wilson gave the Repub-
lican Senators a convincing proof
that he was quite well enough to
manage the executive affairs of the
