Prophets OF Panic.

Representative Robert Luce of
massachusetts, was the first one to
SOW the seed of possible financial dis
aster in an address on the floor of
| the House few days ago. He was
| followed in the same arena by Rep
lresentative Frank w. Mondell, of
IWyoming, Republican House leader
who also viewed with alarm" and ex-
pressed grave doubts of the nation
ability to weather the storm with a
Democrat at the helm. or words to
that effect. To clinch the matter
came no less parsonage than the
Speaker of the House, Frederick w
lGillett of Masschuetts, who de-
serted his chair long enough to go to
his home city of Springfield to make
an address in which he followed the
same line of argument as his party
| colleagues, suggesting to his audience
that financial panic was imminent
according to press reports.
Representative Cordell Hull, OF
Tennessee, Democratic authority on
things financial and commercial in
the House, SCOTS at the pessimism
of the Republican leaders. The fall
of foreign exchange, the basis Of the
Republican fears, he regards as being
inevitable under existing circum-
stances, and says the cure will be
found in natural process Of read
Ijustment, which he asserts will cause
nothing more serious than business
fluctuations.

Washington, D. C.-O1icial and po-

than concerned at the apparent at
tempt of certain Republicans of pro-

the country Confident that the tho
roughly tried Federal Reserve system
will continue to be bulkwark against
any serious financial disturbances, Of
ifcials of the Government are not
alarmed by the calamity howlers, but
are severely critical Of those who for

knowing that the ancient Republi-
can cry that "a full dinner pail" may
be assured only by the return Of the
Republican party to full power in the
nation will not find a responsive ear
under existing prosperous conditions
some Of the Republican leaders seem

concerted effort to break down the
confidence Of the people in the fnan-
cial structure created by the Wilson
Administration, which has withstooC
even the shock of world war with
out a perceptible tremor.
Leading Democrats are reluctant tt
charge the Republicans with such ex

they cannot overlook the fact tha
three Republicans, prominent in the
affairs Of the House Of Representa-
ltives, have recently, in apparently
carefully arranged sequence, express

''The industries which had sur

surplus are going to suffer through
|some dislocation in their business,
|said Mr.. Hull, "and there may develop
IsOme little stringency as a result OF
the conditions, but I do not see any
cause for alarm The remedy is going
to come through jerks and jumps, and
because of this there is certain to be
some disturbance in some industries
but others are likely to be unaffected

Mr. Hull pointed out that the
