PUSHING FORWARD.

When the soviet government imparted to the Psles the information that 2 truce be immediately declared or a new offensive would be opened against Po- land within a short period it would ap- pear that it hoped to drive the Poles to cover by threats The answer of the Poles seems to have been the continua- ton of their operations against Grodno with such success that they have cap- tured the fortified town captured many prisoners and a certain amount of booty and are pushing beyond for fur ther conquest
 Where the forces are with which the soviet government expected to launch its new offensive was not disclosed Ap- parently they were not in any position to come to the relief of the beaten and retreating holsheviki and for tn. pres- ent at least the Poles would seem | he in 8 position to dictate the terms under which any truce between the countries is arranged.
 Negotiations are still underway at Riga but fighting is not being halted for that reason. Likewise there isNsome evi. NS<ASO hAtdt dl tS not well between the Poles and Lithuanians in spite of the fact that it is claimed that their differ. ences have been referred to the league of nations. That these countries vii come to blows seems hardly possible They are too closely allied and think too much of each other for such 7 thing to be possible and such trouble as has been experienced seems to hay, been fostered through soviet influences.

HIGHHANDED.

It is interesting to note the clam thAt Is being made concerning the refusal of President Wilson to carry out the in- structions of congress that he signed the merchant marine act because most of it was badly needed and he could not have vetoed part of it without ve- toing it in it's entirety By his action he appears to have vetoed just what he pleased and done so after he had ap- proved it in toto.
 But how does his action regarding this matter compare with the course he pursued relative to the budget bill That was piece of legislation for which long and determined efforts had been made It was legislation that was need ed. The president in vetoing it de- clared that most of it ought to become law and that he was in sympathy with 1t brt because that was one portion of It which did not strike his fancy he killed it It made no difference that most of it was much needed and it is to be noted that he did not resort to the Idea of approving the budget bill and that disregarding the section to which he took exception.
 The fact IS that 1t IS lmpoSSloie tc look at the failure to veto and then thu announced determination that he woulC not follow the directions of congress a: anything but highhanded. Congress didn't ask him to terminate the treatie: with the different nations but simply certain portions of them which referred to special arrangements which it wal possible to terminate through notifica ton even as 1t had been done in othe eases, and as it had been providet should be done when occasion demand Id.
 It was not an effort framed to disre gard the treaties. It was recognized tha they existed and as long as they .exis they must be respected. But the tim has come when congress believes tha We should look out for ourselves quit as much as the other fellow. It too the proper course to do it and author lzed the president to proceed in th proper manner. President Wilson ar proved the bill and the instruction with full knowledge of what they wer and now by his action blocks the badl needed legislation.

CLEANING UP BASEBALL.

With the indictment of group of baseball players charged with throwing games a year ago that resulted in the worlds series being wen otherwise than on merit, it is plain that there is bound to reveal conditions connected with the great American game that are not sufficiently well known.
 Baseball is the sport that it is be- cause the idea has always prevailed that it was on the level, that players were loyal to the organizations with which they were connected and even though they had their ups and downs. their good and bad days, they were not deliberately throwing the contests.
 From such evidence as has been pro- duced and other that it is believed car be obtained it is evident, though the ac cused have not had an opportunity te be heard regarding the charges, that there has been sufficient wrong doing in connection with the games in ques tion not only to warrant the Indictment but to shake the confidence of those
 who have steadfastly believed tha baseball was a clean sport When base
 ball players are lined up with gambler
 it can be appreciated that their moral
 has been seriously undermined and tha their loyalty to team mates manager:
 fans and those who back 5a sehsll be l cause it is above board is destroyed.
 The revelations that have been mad 1 indicate that there must be g theroug housekeeping. If some of the bes baseball players cannot be had withor taking a chance that they will perm themselves to be corrupted by gambler seeking to make big haul then th game must get along without then Just as soon as 1t can be establishe that the acts alleged have been commi
 ted those involved must be banned fro baseball henceforth and it is not in . probable that successful damage sui , could be brought against those vi have subjected managements to fatu embarrassment by their acts
 z It is a mistake that there should ha been a delay in bringing this state J affairs to light. It should have be, 5 done months ago but now that it is q
 derway there should be a god job do r for the benefit of the game.

NOTHING TO ENCOURAGE BUILD.
 ING.

The legislature of the state of New York has been in special session for the purpose of taking action 8 on the housing situation in that common wealth. It listened to the propositions advanced to meet the situation and it has passed laws to bring relief Whether it will do so is a question. There are those who maintain that no real en- couragement has been given to the con struction of new homes, that no induce ments have been offered to those who would have to invest new capital to bring the needed relief and that houses will continue to be in just as great de- r1and as ever.
 On the other hand others see where some improvement is going to result. Ii is generally admitted that help has been given to the tenants. those now already housed but who had received notice thai they must vacate at the conclusion oi their lease. In behalf of such the leg islature has said that they cannot bt evicted and all that they need to do i they cannot find place to move is t, hand the landlord the same rent the,
 
 action directs otherwise.
 While the relief to the tenants va. important it can be appreciated that tn congestion and the inability to get ac commodstions cannot get the neede. relief until there are more dwellings. Ii New Jersey inducements were offered t capital in the way of abating the taxe on construction within the next five years, but in New York this was no done and yet New York hotels and oth CT property which have been used fo housing humanity are being turned int business houses. This of course adds t the seriousness of the situation. Ther were those who favored the forcing C capital to enter such business but ne ther that advice nor the policy of rnab ing such investments more attractiv, were followed. Whatever the result ( the special session it doesn't appear ths it has accomplished the real purpose c that it has met the crying need.

COMING DOWN.

whether sugar will get down to the price at which it was selling during the war period before the gradual drcp ceases will be better indicated after the canning season begins to ease up Just at the present ting much sugar is be- ing used in maxi \; preserves and yet in spite of that renners are making re- ductions and large quantities are com ing into the country. It is still some distance from the war time figure but with increased offerings of raw sugar and slow demand for the product in anticipation of further drops it is not improbable that those who are pre- dieting further declines know what they are talking about.
 Those who got caught with contracts for sugar at high figure and had diff cuity in getting away from them with, out taking . loss are using caution even at present figures. Likewise the small buyers are not stocking un w7tt 'hs sweet stuff at present day figures of IT or IS cents | le1ai because ci that same belief that it is due to gc lower.

necessary and thus take advantage of the market.
 Beet sugar production is likewise go- ing to be welcome factor in the sugar situation. Not only in this country but in Europe are there prospects of large yield from this source, and the relief that Europe obtains means just that much additional benefit from the Cuban cane crop for this country. Under such conditions and with countries which have not hitherto been supplying this market still responding to the prices available here there are encouraging factors supporting the claims of lower prices.
 With the coming of the new crops both cane and beet, and the general ten
 dency of other prices to decline it vii
 rot be unreasonable to expect that su
 gar will get down more nearly if no' quite where it belongs.

THE sMARTEsT or THE SUITS is well illustrated by the three which we have selected as representative of this seasons best. The first is of soft vevety Veldyne in that warm brown know as Zanzibar. The straightness of line, a noteworthy feature ot the best models is aeeentuated cie<vry, and the wide collar of beaver, real beaver adds regal richness. On the pockets too, beaver is used most effectively. The price is $16e5o Another suit which will surely attract your favorable comment, is Dryad blue creation of VeIdyne, developed in long lines. The novel use of loose panel back in the coat is very new, giving most graceful line from shoulder to hem. The collar of Australian opossum with it's smoky silver tones is very pleasing, harmonizins we'll with the rich blue of the fabric. It will cost you but $s7.5o.
 A third suit is of Reindeer eeIored suedine and richly embroidered in the same eoIor, the sna- broidery heavily outiiniRs the paneled lines of the back. The collar is of Nutria, and broad band of that beautiful fur finishes the coat below the embroidery. The price, $t25.oo, is really low considering the quality and the beauty of the garment.
