CONGRESS- ENDS IN FILIBUSTER,

Congress adjourned at noon in the
midst Of Republican +fiibaster in the
senate that lkilled. Along list of i'm
pOrtant measures
Among the bills that failed was one
appropriating $3.50, 100000 for the rail-
road administration, without which
some administration leaders say the
railroads must be returned to their
owners before the middle of April.
The president gave none of his call
ers any intimation of his plans regard
ing the disposition of the railroads.
Some senators advised him to return
them Immediately to private owner
ship, but the president received all adj
vice without comment.
Wheat Guaranty Bill Wins.

homa (Dem.) that the senate act or
his proposal to order rehabilitation
Of all drafted soldiers in this country
within 80 days, unexpectedly cOmpli.
Gated the Legislative situation half
hour before the end of the session.
Big bills that failed included both
the army and navy appropriation meas
ures. Only two important measures
ran the gantlet of the last rs hours OF
filibustering-the Victory Liberty loan
bill and the billion-dollar wheat guar
anty bill.
Half an hour before adjournment
President Wilson, who, with his cabi-
net, was in the executives private
room off the senate chamber signed
the wheat measure.
Sherman Holds Floor for Hours.
The tilibuster of the group of Re-
publicans working for an extra ses-
sion continued until the end. Senator
Sherman of Illinois (Rep), who began
a speech at 1880 a. m, held the floor
for more than four hours and success
fully prevented further consideration
of the railroad appropriately,
Some of Big Items Lo-N
Legislation which failed at this ses-
sion included:
The $1,215,OOO,O00 army appropria-
ton bill, with its authorization for a
temporary army of $4,000 men after
July /.
The $75O0OO,0OO naval appropriation
measure, authorizing new three-year
building program urged by President
Wilson.
The sundry civil bill, carrying ap-
preparations tOtaling about $S5OOOO,-
600, including $65O,OOO,0OO for the
merchant marine.

TAFT'S SHARE IN WILSON'S
TRIUMPH,

PTeS1QeuC Wilson'S triumph d.
Paris" says the New York World, "is
remarkable because he has had to
struggle not only against all the ele-
nents of reaction in Europe, but against
the most reckless and most shocking
American propaganda that was ever d.
rected against an Administration en-
gagged in foreign negotiations. This
partisan propaganda took the fomr OF
deliberate and calculated attempt
to wreck the Peace Conference merely
to discredit President Wilson at home"
The World makes it quite clear that
certain Republican leaders, and we
may add few Democrats like Senator
Reed, of Missouri, stood ready to join
any European Government on any is
sue against the President of the United
States, whatever the consequences
might be.
In its lengthy editorial the World
shows that the advice of these enc
mics of the President had to be
disregarded for two reasons. Zone
was that it led straight to information
al anarchy and the ultimate victory
of Germany at the peace table after
losing the war. The other was that
President Wilson's strength among
the masses of the people in Great
Britain, France and Italy was so ire
mendous that no Government could sur
vive the attempt to ignore him. He
was more powerful in Europe than
any European statesman.
Thanks to another ex-President of
the United States, William H. Taft,
it soon became apparent that Mr..
Roosevelt spoke for only fraction of
the Republican Party. Although the
Republicans that followed Mr.. Roose-
welt in the campaign to deprive the
United States Government of any
standing at the Peace Conference have
continued their activities without in
terruption, their efforts have attract
ed less and less attention in Paris
from day to day. Mr.. Taft's influence
as spokesman of American Republi-
canism has CORRESPONDENCE increased,
and he rightly shares with President
Wilson the credit for the fact that the
Constitution Of the League of Nations
is a living, vital Bill of Rights beween
peoples and governments.
Neither Mr.. Wilson nor Mr.. Taft
originated the idea of League of
Nations. Neither of them did the ac-
tual work Of drafting the Constitution
But for President Wilson it would
have had no part in the final peace
and the nations would have settled
back into the international relation
ships that bred this war. But for Mr.
Taft's Vigorous and patriotic support
IN Sbnih1h1a that Mr. Wilson would
have fk implicitly at the peace
table, regardless Of the public senti-;
ment that sustained and applauded
him. E
"To these two Americans, President
and exPresident, the world owes its
first Great Charter of peace and liber-
ty and universal justice"
Manchester Democrat. [volume] (Manchester, Iowa) 1875-1930, 1919-03-05
THIRD TERN TALK.

The partisans who are waging war
upon the League of Nations, for the
purpose of discrediting President
Wilson, are not correctly interpre-
ting the horoscope of the future.
For many years the laboring masses
of Europe staggered under burdens
caused by the maintenance of great
standing armies and big naval pro-
grams. Then followed the natural
result of such conditions, the greatest
of all wars. More than 100000 OF
men were killed and twice that number
wounded, many of them made cripples
for life, as a result of the war. I'm
less the future has something better
in store for mankind than the old
armed camp condition, these 100000
of men will have died in vain. These
are generally admitted facts, facts
which can not be gainsaid. It is
equally true that the world must
either fall back into it's old rut, or
form a covenant to put an end to fu-
tire wars. Can there be any doubt
about Americas choice when the
masses of the people are called upon
to choose?
If the Republican leaders are wise
they will not force President Wilson
to cross swords with them in defense
of a League Of Nations in the next
presidential campaign. The wise
thing for those leaders to do Is to
cease their blind partisan opposition
to the President, and help him in every
way they can to finish the compact for a
League of Nations in manner least
Objectionable to this country. That
would give Mr.. Wilson a chance to
finish his work and retire from the
political arena at the end Of; his pres
ent term. But, il they persist in
their present course, they will force
him to become a candidate to succeed
himself. In that event only one
question will be considered and it will
be this: Does America favor or OPP
pose a League Of Nations to put an
end to all wars?
II that political battle has to be
fought the enemies Of humanitytl
find Mr.. Wilson a man full Of fed
fighting blood. The result will not
be in doubt for a single hour after
the campaign commences. The, petty,
shortsighted partisans responsible for
such campaign will be overwhelming
" defeated. Every lover of humanity
will feel called upon to give them
push into we'll merited obscurity.
