The chairman of the congressional
has announced that, due to the short
age of print paper. it is necessary to
place a new and stringent regulation
on the printing and distribution of
The Congressional Record. in which
is published the official and complete
record of the daily proceedings of con-
gress while in session. Hereafter only
enough copies of The Record will be
printed to supply the personal needs
of members of congress and other Of
ficials entitled to receive this pubii-
cation. and the outside" mailing list
paper situation is relieved Also it is
stated. there will be a stringent limita-
ton to the publication of speeches and
other matter, requested by congress
slonal members and intended for cir
culation for campaign purposes. The
chairman's action looks like a cheap
method of gaining a reputation for do
ing something without actually doing
it. If he really desired to save paper.
why wait until congress was ready to
adjourn before issuing his order ?
There will be no further occasion to
print Congressional Records before
next December and by that time the
paper shortage may be relieved. But
it is a commendable measure of econ
omy and is better coming late than
never

Much is being said by statesmen and
fnanciers regarding the blockade of
Russia by Europe but little is heard
Of the blockade of Europe by Russia
Russia has food in abundance and Eu-
rope is hungry, yet it is denied or is
denying itself access to that food. The
opening OF the channels of trade be-
tween Russia and the rest OF the world
probably would go much farther to-
ward restoring normal conditions in
the world than would any loan of
money which the United States might
make to distressed nations.

The adoption of prohibition by the
nation and the enactment of enforce
ment legislation by congress compelled
thousands of barkeepers to seek other
employment. Other thousands of per-
sons who for years have made a liv-
ing and frequently much more out of
prohibition probably will fare better
than the barkeepers. There promises
to be work for small army of en-
forcement officers and probably those
who have been most active in bringing
about existing conditions will have
first call on the jobs.

ton and specialization in medicine.
Yet to go to the best specialist is very
apt to be the cheapest measure in
the long run, and often it is the only
one that will save life. A general
distrust Of specialists on the part of
the public "a belief that they are
profiteers-is another obsta-
Gle to this development. That distrust,
however, is gradually passing away.
1t is beginning to be realized that it
is the most eminent man who can
least afford to be unfair, and the most
intelligent one who is least likely to be.
