All Cry for Relief.

At first the programme was 10 helP
out the farmers who were caught In the
la m with crops and stock raised al
maximum of cost and a market slipping
rapidly to rock bottom. Then came
others with a similar cry. they came
from the cotton country with pidful tales
of how the price had dropped so low
they were unable TO make 1T profitable
to pick the cotton already on the stocks :
they came from the tobacco growing por-
tons of the South they came from the
sheep and cattle raising States
Then came hte manufacturers, who
eaid they TOO had been left holding the
Arg. They needed relief from heavy in
ventories quite as much. they said. as the
- rmers
out of this tangle Congress hopes to
work some scheme whereby they all can
have such relief as is necessary and un-
obtainable through ordinary banking
channels. II is a tremendous job but
one to which those who are giving their
most attentt'e study believe there will
be a satisfactory solution. The proposal
which is the basis of the legislation that
kelly will be adopted Is a corporation
along the lines of the War Finance Cor
l.poration that functioned during the war.

ping Board by Senator Jones (Wash.),
Republican. who in an interview said
that vast sum had been tied up in the
case of vessels unstable to domestic
purchasers which might have been sold

Wilson was partly TO blame through
his delay in filling vacancies in the
membership of the board. The Senator
said:
with only two instead of seven
members on the Board between June
and November, the carrying out of the
provision to permit the sale or needless
ships to aliens has been imperative
There has been a strong showing that
we do not need some of the wooden
vessels, nor some of the smaller steel
vessels, and the Board has been unable
to sell any material part of these YES
sells to Americans. In addition, of
course, It has been impossible TO make
a physical compliance with the provis
ion in the Merchant Marine act that
there shall be n segregation Of the
work of the Board among its seven

Budget Bill to Pass.
A budget bill was passed by Congress
last session, but received the veto Of
President Wilson, who objected to a GER
tain provision relating to the appoint
ment of budget commissioner The
detail was unlmportant in the eyes of
Congress and the programme IS to
amend the measure to suit Mr.. Wilson s
ideas and put IL through. When Senator
Harding was in Washington canvassing
with Senators and others the work that
should be attempted at the short ses-
sion he agreed that the budget bin
ought to be passed without delay.
In a general way the budget bill
which has met approval of both po-
lltical parties provides for a central
agency to prepare estimates on which
I'D 10 no Ia. Nv
gress. At present estimates arc sub
mitted by each executive branch and
special bureau to the Secretary of the
Treasury, who merely passes all along
to Congress. Through a budget system
the belief is. there can be effected much
greater coordination than Is at present
possible. notable saving In the pre-
vention of duplicate work and therefore
a minimum OF cost to the taxpayers.
The Patent Office bill admittedly. is
much desired. 1t provides for general
of the Patent Office
force, it's enlargement and for increased
pay to the technical staff. Condltlcns
at the Patent Office now are very bad.
The office is far behind with It's work
and the force is demoralized.
Much study will be required on the
part of both Senate and House to de-
termine what relief should be provided
for the farmers,-m manufacturers and
others who have been caught In the
slump that has developed from the drop
in prices.
The thought is TO reestablish the war
