rescission of this prohibition does not,
by the terms Of the encyclical. sur
render the temporal rights of the
Holy See; but it does recognize the
de facto right Of the Italian King 10
sit in the Quirinal and to rule the
Italian nation thence, and by this
recognition it in effect and thus far
relinquishes the temporal power.
Such REIMBURSEMENT cannot be
otherwise than definitive; and that it
foreshadows also the abandonment
of the theory that the Pope is
prisoner in the Vatican may be in
ferred from Pope Benedict's express
sion in this document of the hope
that 1.-THE abnormal conditions affect
ing the head of the Church shall also
be brought to an end
Quite singularly, this encyclical
comes in the year which is the fiftieth
after the Italian occupation of Rome,
anticipating the emi-centennial of
that event by little more than
three months. The half century that
has interviewed has been one of the
nominal immurement of the Pope in
his palace of the Vatican. Through
out that period the Italian King has
been an outlaw, so far as the DEGREES
and the action Of the Vatican Gov
eminent are concerned. No assault
upon this position of voluntary iso-
lation has been permitted in the
papal councils. But now, as if 10
carry the implication that fifty years
of resistance to a fait accompli is
enough, the ban upon the Italian
national power is removed.
Logically, the rescission of this
prohibition involves the acceptance
by the Vatican of the law Of guar
antees. 1t also involves a recognition
of the existing basis of Catholic par
ticipation in the politics of the Italian
kingdom. Already the growth Of this
Catholic movement in political af-
fairs has resulted in the temporary
downfall of an Italian ministry. But
under the existing situation, il was
impossible for the leader of a Cath
Ole party to assume ministerial
power. The present encyclical al
though having no direct bearing on
such a question. cannot fail to have
an indirect bearing. The entrance If
the Catholic party into full politica,
functions must logically follow. And
this encyclical will undoubtedly ex-
ercise loosening effect upon Vatican
and official Catholic relations in the
world in general.

II the Republican senators have
really been playing with presidential
fire, as is charged. they are in a fair
way to get their fingers burned. Con-
siderable resentment is being ex-
pressed at Chicago against what is
termed an attempt at domination by

have some influence in that conven-
ton. Senators are very punctilious

How May We Register Our opinio


Assuming the highly improbable,
the endorsement by the people of the
League covenant as written by the
President. what shall be inferred re-
specting the constitutional powers of
the Senate and what shall the Senate
be asked to do about it?
While there isn't the slightest
doubt but the Senate is accustomed
to arrogate to itself all it may in the
way of Importance, there neverthe-
less is not the slightest doubt but the
makers Of the Constitution intended
chat body to share responsibility for
treaties equally with the President.
This could not have been the inten-
ton of President Wilson when he
deliberately f1outed the Senate and
made conspicuous his determination
to nowise consult that body's opinion.
Had he resolved on destroying this
safeguard of the Constitution against
such autocracy as he aspires to he
could have gone about it in no more
deliberate way. Unfortunately there
now seems little likelihood that the
people will be given opportunity to
register their opinion as to just what
they would have for a covenant and
at the same time say what they
think about the respective constitu-
tional rights of the President and the
Senate.
AS the President has not informed
the Senate what change if any from
the original covenant would be ac-
ceptable to him, any concession he
or his party nov makes will virtually
be admission Of the senate's preroga-
tive and a confession that the Presi-
dent was wrong in not making the
concession without this disastrous
delay.

tribute to cachinnatory development

grieve. If Congress will go back to

conserve their energy for doing a

One things stands out clearly: Or
ganization spells immensely multi
piled power. Whether it be an or
gahization Of capitalists or an or
ganization of employees, such q body
stands in a very different moral rela-
ton to the whole people from that of
the individual small capitalist or the
individual wage-earner. No good and
permanent social end, political, indus
trial or other, is going to be served
by ignoring this simple hut basic So
cial fact. And, as we know, legisla-
ton has taken many steps that recog-
nize this distinction in the case OF
corporate capital. And why should
not similar steps be taken with re-
gard to organized labor's right to
strike? If unrestrained capitalistic
powers. due to a high degree of CAPT.
talistic organization, constitute a spe-
cial menace to the rights Of the con-
sumner Of labor, as well as to certain
ends Of government, it has become
equally evident that labor's power to
strike, made possible by labor organi-
cations, will, if unrestrained, consti-
tute similar and an equally ruthless
menace, although by different route
and in somewhat different ways.

LOSING Some of His Heat

q. E. House in Public fLedgerO
We are amazed to learn, through
the courtesy of Mr.. w. .Jett Lauck,
that the annual profits of the packers
reached the amazing total of $5S.000.-
600 a year. The statement has not
been disputed. We sometimes mar
vel that the criminal pillage and ex-
ploitation of the toiling and over
burdened masses by the rich and
powerful packers has not resulted in
revolution. However, we are frank
to admit that when we come to
analyZe the figures, our indignation
becomes less intense and loses some
of it's heat. The yearly profit exacted
by the packers would, roughly speak
ing, be fifty cents apiece, or about
$3.50 a family as they come and go.
Almost as amazing as the profits Of
the packers is the effect of little
sense when applied to figures
in round numbers.

It's the Consumers Problem.

IF you watch all the utterances Of
all the writer's and speakers on the
solution of the tremendous crisis con-
fronting US. you will note that all the
talk is about the farmers problem?
1T is NOT the farmers problem!
1t is the consumers problem. The
farmer won't starve until everybody
else is in Kingdom Come. If Mr..
Consumer is fool enough to fiddle
with this problem till his cupboard is
bare before he wallops the middle
men carbon crows off the map, and
does something to make good produce
ton attractive to young men, that is
his affair.
And if a fat.brained administra-
ton. of any political faith, attempts
the high-handed game of Selling and
apportioning the country's food after
the farmers have produced it, then
we shall have something in this coun-
try to match the slavery crisis, and
worse"
1T is time for the consumer to
wake up to the fact that it is his kit
tie O. fish and not the farmers"
From the above, in which readers of
the Journal cannot fail to recognize
the trenchant pen of Chad" it will be
noted that his recent affiliations with
a political horoscope have not blunted
his perceptions, while his retirement
from agricultural pursuits has SEEM
ingly increased his apprehension re-
specting next winters food supply.
We join him and other consumers in
worrying on our own account and

A Neat Question.
(BOStOn POStl

Over in New York that eminent
jurist, Charles f. Hughes, counsel for
President Wood and the American
Wooden Company in the case brought
against them for alleged profiteering,
argues that the indictment of the fed
eral grand jury should be quashed
because, as he contends, wooden cloth
is not wearing apparel" and is
therefore outside the scope of the
Lever act.
This is certainly neat feat in the
art of quibbling. The contention is
not that the wooden company and it's
head are innocent of the charges
brought, but that you cannot call the
fabric used for no other purpose than
the making Of clothes, clothing.
Possibly if the weather were not
quite so warm the distinguished
counsel would set up the claim that
the fabric made by his clients was to
be used for bed quilts.
