retired from practice, but his death re-

trscted on December ~.
Doctor Wood graduated from the
medical department OF the University

of commodities because foreign trade,
in the last analysis, is only an exchange
OF commodities.
Warns Against Will % the. wisp
Il hear echoes Of n desire TO re-
establish protection for American in
dustries. Are we not listening to a
false suggestion? Has not the time
come when the resources of the United
states are to be found in the greatest
shipments of raw material and manu-
factured goods and the greatest i'm
portation of foreign goods which we
can consumer
The latest figures on the balance of
trade. furnish the argument. For eleven
months of this year there was trade
balance of 81, 800, 900 900 in favor of
the United States against the rest of
the world. Before the war our biggest
trade balance was S686, 900 900 in 1908.
AT that time America was a debtor
nation and our interest payments in
Europe went far to cancel this bal
ance. Now We are n creditor nation
In addition to the trade balance Europe
owes Us each year $500, 900 900 inter-
est. At that rate we would soon drain
the whole world of wealth.
The deprecated foreign exchange is
another symptom. Even Canadian
money is now selling in this country at
ninety cents on dollar. American
business men sec that this country
must buy in Europe in order that
Europe may continue to buy here.
And that thought makes the Repub
licans pause.

During Holiday as Congress
Resumes Mighty Tasks
VICTOR BERGER is ABSENT
BY the Associated Press

Washington. Jan. 5.-Congress met
promptly at noon today after two
weeks recess over the holidays, with
the Treaty of Versailles still the fore
most of the great array of subjects
with which the national lawmakers were
expected to deal before adjournment.
probably just before the presidential
election next November.
Private conferences initiated during
the holidays looking to some sort of Il
compromise in the treaty fight were
continued and renewal Of debate on the
Senate floor was expected at any time.
No concrete plan under which the Sen
ate would resume formal consideration
Of the subject had been agreed upon
however.
In the Senate today the scditicn bill
of Senator Sterling, Republican, South
Dakota. had the right of way.
It'had been expected that the House
would be called upon TO again pass on
the question of seating Victor Berger.
Socialist. of Wisconsin, who was re
elected after the House had declared
his seat vacant. but Berger was not
present when the House met.
The only break in the long ses-
sion that members can look forward
to is the brief recess coincident with the
holding of the international party con
ventions during the summer. But de-
spite the mass of work ahead there are
indications aplenty that annie time
will he found for partisan politics. and
no angle of the coming presidential cleo

Beside the German and Austrian
treaties, international problems includ-
ing the proposed alliance with France.
the Panama canal settlement with Co
lombia, treaties with Poland and. pos
sibly, with Turkey also, and numerous
measures dealing with the war changed
conditions of American commercial and
financial relations abroad.
Important domestic legislation await
ing action includes the railroad reor,
ganization bill and the oil, coal and
gas and phosphate land leasing bill,
both of which are in conference; army
reorganization. shipping legislation,
control of undesirable aliens and on
scores of other subjects.

the platform report. a work which
they had expected to complete last
