Washington. March 5.--The Six
ty-fifth congress died yesterday. it
leaves a record of three sessions, two
of them remarkable for their legisla-
tive accomplishing and the third
for it's lack of accomplishment
The 65th will be known in Amer
lean history as the 100000, 900, 900
congress. Its three sessions appro-
priated approximately that amount.
This breaks all American records,
and probably all world records for a
single congress.
The congress was divided into
three sessions, and these marked
three distinct phases of activity.
The first was the war making ses-
sion. Ii began April 2, 1911, and
ended 1873 days later, Oct. g.
The second was the war winning
session. 1t was the longest single
session the American congress ever
held, lasting 354 days, from Dec. 3,
1917, to Nov. 81 1918.
The. third was the readjustment
session, lasting from Dec. 2, 1918,
until yesterday.

MANY CzECHS WERE
MARTYRS IN THE WAR
BY FRANK j. TAYLOR

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Prague, GZecho-Slovakia Feb. s.
tBy Mail.)-The passive resist
ance," as the war time opposition of
the Czecho-Slovak people to the old
Austrian Hungarian government is
called, was an exceedingly effective
means of fighting the Hapsburgs, as
after-t the-war revelations show.
Though the Czecho-Slovaks were
suppressed too completely to revolt
with force until toward the end of
the war, they refused to fight for
Austria. Thousands escaped and
joined the Russian, Italian and
French armies. and against these
countrymen the conscripted Czecho-
Slovaks refused to fight. They were
drafted into the army, and in many
eases sent to the front.
