 The quality of the product of this leadership is open to question, but. the quantity represents a bigger grist than the legislative mill has ground out in a like space of time. Here are the out standing items in the peace record of | the Wilson administration: Tariff re- vision. the first income tax, the Federal Reserve act, the Federal Trade Commits sion. the Clayton Trust law, thirty arbi- tration treaties. the Seamen's act, the Farm, loan, the Repeal of Panama tolls the Shipping act, the Child Labor law, the Purchase of the Danish West Indies and Federal Aid for Good Roads, The Federal Reserve law is potentially i as great a piece of constructive legisla- 1 tion as any. that has been enacted in this country, We were absolutely with put a financial system, and he money of I he nation was in the irresponsible con trol of a few big banks in New York. A single private citizen exercised far l more power over the national currency l than the national government itself. 1 President Cleveland hired J. Pierpont Morgan to be the protector of the help less Treasury in 1895 and President Roosevelt turned to him to save the fin ancial' life tine country in 1907. All the while an absurd system or lack of system left the ~r>nt business of the
 Jnited States without currency when ever. it was neeueu and with too much of it when the need was least. s I Every. attempt to remedy this situa. tfon had failed because private financia- interests naturally wished to keep theil
 control of the money, The, Aldrfch bill 1T
 the Taft administration proposed to givt
 the sanction of law to this private dom
 ination, but congress refused to. pass it.
 The Federal Reserve Act simply re-
 versed the Aldrich plan and gave the
 nation through the government, the con trol of it's own money. It is agreed
 now that without the new system our fin

TERMINALS AND, MoToE TRUCKS

Freight eoneestion has become a lair ly familiar phrase, When sugar IS Short, or coal is short or shortages have en- sued in any one of half a dozen different commodities, We have been told that tfe trouble lay at the door Of freight con sestion, that is,7 stacks Of freight piled up for delivery that the rafiroatis could not move because there were not enough freight cars.

Little Country to Resist Dhl.

: Foreign Nations.

ROME. April 2s-If the San Reno
conference has decided to divide AL
bania between Greece and Jugoslavia
or place it under italian domination
on the pretext OF a protectorate, des-
perate resistance on the part OF the
AIbanians will be encountered. 1t is
learned that the Albanian MOUNTAIN mo
tribes for the first time in 1000 years
have formed a ''bessa" or truce
against the foreign enemy. whether
Serb, Greek or Italian.
The present Tirano government.
chosen by representatives Of all the
tribes elected according to the an
cient Lett law. is committed to ma
tional unity and independence and has
almost complete authority over the
armed forces.
Reported Serb AEEressIons.
The aggressions of the Serbs are
causing the greatest Indignation. Ser
bian troops recently occupied Mount
tory and dominating Scutari. The an
nexation of Scutari is openly de-
manded
In Montenegro credible reports tell
of the brutality with which Serbia
suppressed the attempts of Albanian
residents of Serbia to resist SlaviZa-
ton. The Kassova committee. which
is considered trustworthy by neutral
observers. asserts that since the de-
parture of the French $4,000 men,
women and children have been killed
by the Serb troops who plundered
houses. attacked women and on many
occasions confined whole families in
burning residences at the point of the
rifle. In the last six months, accord
ing to the committee. ninety-six viii
lagos have been RACED between Nitro
vitsa and Epic and 5000 women and
mountains. Bands of hundreds are
now trekking to Albania.
The American Red Cross for months
supported many such refugees in
Scutari and elsewhere and the Italian
army maintains several refugee
camps.
Men and Boys Have Arms.
Although no regular Albanian army
exists every man and boy is trained
from babyhood to shoot and kill and
has at least one ride with abundant
ammunition. All are said to be
awaiting word from the Tirano gov
eminent to attack any possible In
vader. Guerilla warfare conducted
by tribal regiments in their own
fair and would probably last for
years. The Tirano government. though
demanding independence, we'll knows
that 1t has neither money nor the
technical ability to govern without
fhe help of an outside nation. 1t would,
therefore, accept. though with mis-
givings. a protectorate in Albanian
fnterests-even that of Italy under
binding guarantees. It would. how
ever, prefer the protectorate OF an
other and more distant nation-one
with no Balkan policy to promote.
