The international policy Of the
Republican administration as it IS
assuming form in the minds of sen
ators as result of conferences with
President-elect Harding does no,
contemplate early action upon any
treaty or agreement with the Euro
pean powers. 1t will probably be
months before any agreement aas
been formulated for submission T.
the senate.
In the meantime the program as
outlined will include the passage OF
the Knox resolution establishing
peace between this country and
Germany, the passage of the Borah
resolution authorizing the president
to enter into agreement with Great
Britain, Japan, and probably France
and Italy to curtail the naval build
ing programs of all four of the great
powers and possibly declaration in
connection with the Knox resolu-
ton, already proposed by the Penn
sylvania senator, of this count1y's
earnest desire to aid in the main
tenance of peace and it's willingness
to cooperate with other nations in
the defense of civilization.

The Senate investigating commit
tee has the evidence of the mlnc
operators themselves that coal cost
them $2.82 a ton to produce, ann
that fair profit on a ton would
make it sell at the mines at $5.51
yet the average selling price in 1913
at the mines was SIP per ton
This means an excess profit of So SO
was reaped by the coal profiteers.
When this report was made one
Senator asked, what are we soins
to do about it,"

justice our record" Senator Calder

The membership of the house OF
representatives would be increased
to 483 under a bill reported by
Chairman Siegel, of the census COM
mittee, to fix the reapportionment
for the next ten years under the
1920 census. The bill provides an
increase of forty-eight over the
present membership of 435. No
state would lose any representation.
At the same time, Representative
Siegel introduced a constitutional
amendment to limit the size of all
future houses to 500 members
Adoption of the reapportionment
measure would result in an incree Sc
in the total vote of the electoral col
lege to 579, making 2S9 necessary
for the election of a president and
vice president of the United States.
The present vote is 531.
California would make the largest
gain in new members, five in the
bill, bringing her total to sixteen.
Michigan, New York, Ohio and
Pennsylvania would gain four each.
Illinois and Texas, three; Massa-
chusetts, New Jersey and North
Carolina, two each, while Alabama,
Arkansas, Connecticut, Georg a.,
Maryland, Minnesota, New Mexico,
Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina,
Tennessee, Virginia, Washington,
West Virginia and Wisconsin would
gain one each.
The basis of representation is fix
ed under the committees bill at one
member for each 21S,979 inhabit-
ants, as compared to 211,S7S at
present.
Members If the committee are
said to be virtually unanimous IN
support of the bill after an effort to
fix the membership at 460 failed.
