and took over jobs that were unsuited
to them, because the need was there
to be filled. Since peace has come
they have left these positions. But
many women are still working for the
railroads in clerical positions and they
are liked for the work. The salaries
are good, and the treatment of the
women is said to be excellent. Where
these are required the railroads have
provided rest and lunch rooms. and
there are matrOns whose business it is
to see that the women are comfortably
situated and cared for.
In the banks, too, women are going
more and more into clerical work.
They are working as cashiers and as
sistant cashiers, and in the branches
as paying tellers and adjustors The
work is agreeable to women who have
"a sound training in bookkeeping, the
associations are pleasant, and there

Moreover, it would be nothing short of criminal
to close eyes to the moral obligation we are un

If we abandon them again, then there is an end OF
Chinese reliance upon and perhaps of Chinese re-
sstance for long time. -..s..-
But this duty to China goes beyond the solemn
signature of documents rcafirming devotion of the
principles of the open door and equal opportunity.
We have either got to insure those things in fact
abandon our pretenons to maintaining them. We
must in fact assume the terribly difficult position OF
moral guardianship of China wash hands of
the whole Chinese affair. And in Nthis connection it
is worth remembering that when John Hay uttered

but of Germany and Russia, France and Britain Too

of British policy before the world 1t constitutes
injury which, from the point Of view Of proud
and powerful people has possible paiiation. And
it is the nation which places stigma upon the whole
race, which closes its territories to Japanese mm-
grafton country, British otherwise closed its
doors to German immigration, which undertakes
to close the Asiatic Of Japanese expansion.
A European solution of the difficulties presented
by our policy would be Anglo French American
alliance to establish and maintain the Independence
of China and Siberia. The theory would be that
against such alliance Japan, feeling herself too
weak, would attempt nothing, that she would in fact
surrender, Or if she took the other course her de-
feat would be assured, thus Europe disposed Of Ger

presupposes something pretty close TO league Of

the Pacific as the league of nations which was Gre

in the end that leaves the whole situation resolved
into duel between the United States and Japan one

Wavs and Means Committee of Congress took up

-HE bill which the Ways and Means Committee
i wrote and the modification of that bill which
the lower house of Congress subsequently passed, diff
fered in important particulars from what Secretary
Mellon had recommended and this was the beginning
of the wabbng which has led to the present confusion
When the lower house passed its bill there was much
dissatisfaction with it, but everybody took 1t Tor
granted that what has happened in the past would
happen again. namely, that the Finance Committee of
the Senate would review the whole subject and would
write practically new bill But when the Finance
Committee of the Senate got down to work it didn't
function like the Finance Committees Of the previous
sessions of the Senate. ...
The failure of the Finance Committee of the Senate
to take strong grip the situation is generally
ascrbed to the lack of firm leadership and strong
grip the part of the chairman of that committee,
Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania For this the state
OF Senator Penroses health is undoubtedly responsible
When the Finance Committee of the Senate finally
reported its bill it did not by any means have the
prestige and authority that such report commonly has

have not the courage say So but have been hoping
that the passage of time would bring the country
to look favorably on that form Of tax.
@ much for the history Of the bill up to date II
- now appears that the bill to be passed at this
sion to be regarded not as the permanent peace time
tax bill but merely an emergency measure TO cure
the situation created by that has already gone
over the dam. .. ~
Tor the decision to make the bill to be passed at
this session merely an emergency measure to serve
for the present year, and to defer the writing OF
radically different peacetime measure until next year.
there are some good reasons. If these reasons had
been anticipated by the Republicans early as last
April and had been announced to the country at that
time, the country would not feel so irrated al
the situation as it now stands The reasons which
justify the writing of emergency tasnton measure
for the present year, and the postponement Of the
permanent measure until next year. are these:
First of all the Treasury must have the money.
There is now in existence mechanism for bringing
in this money, To change this meehanism by the
writing of radically different peace-tine measure takes
good deal of time. The mere adjustment Of the
Treasury machinery for collecting the taxes through
new bill would consume about FIVE months. Under the
cireumstancessit is not wise to make any radical
changes. Il is not expedent for example, to make
such change as would be involved in throwing over
board large portion Of the income taxes and sub
stituting for them tax based sales or a tax
based on manufacturers products such as Senator
Smoot proposes
In addition to the element of time, there Ase still
other reasons for postponing the writing of per-
manent peace time schedules until next year. BY
year it may reasonably be hoped conditions will
have changed in several important particulars For one
thing. it is just possible that by next year we may
be able TO refund our liberty loans. At the present

THE Republicans have handled the subject of
taxation very badly. There can be no ques-
ton about that Yet, ! shall point out
later, there are some things to be said in ex-
planaton Of the situation il exists today. These
facts of extenuaton do not help the of the Re-
publican managers in the House and senate Inc"
management of the subject from the beginning mas
been one of muddling and uncertainty. Ihey started
off with the impression of knowing what they "anteu
10 do and of going at il expeditiously Fresiueh'
Hardng's recommendations in his inaugural adaress
and in his first address to Congress IN April were
explicit and satisfactory Thereafter Secretary MELON
of the Treasury Department made careful report Oh
what was needed and Of what in his judgment shoud
be done. This report given by him to the ap-
proprate committee of Congress- and he together with
the experts OF his department submitted himself to
prolonged examination.
So far everything promised WELL but from this
point on indecsion and bad management began First
of all neither the House the Senate could make
up their minds whether to take up taxation hrst OF
the tariff first The bulk of the business men OF the
country wanted taxation taken up FIRST and made this
wish known the Republican leaders 1t can also be
taken for granted, think that the Administration
wanted taxation taken up first. But the leaders OF the
House and Senate never knew their minds on fhis
point They wavered from day to day.
The man who finally brought it about that the
tariff should be taken up first probably came nearer
to knowing his mind than anybody else. He was
Chairman Fordney of the Ways and Means Commit
tee. He knew what he wanted, but events turned
out the thing he wanted not the best thing. Mr..
Fordney, who has been in Congress long time,
brought down from his old experience the idea that
a good big protective tariff is panacea for practical
y all kinds OF economic ills He held steadily for
taking up the tariff FIRST President Harding urged
to throw his influence against this decision but felt
as reluctant then apparently, he feels to at

to pledge that il, consequence OF her support

dominions in Australia, New Zealand India.
would stand by her. Yet nothing is more certain than
that the present administration, warned by the ex-
perience of the last, will make foreign alliances
whether in the Pacific in the Atlantic. Thus from
the British standpoint are preciptating crash
without in any slightest degree consentng to insure
the innocent bystandcrs against loss. 49,.
And the position of the French and the Dutch is
even more difficult Neither has any navy which
could protect their Pacific colonies against Japanese
attack. Both have very considerable colonial estab-
lshments, the Dutch East Indies have population
of around 5ooooooo the French in Indo- China have
colony larger than France with at least $1,000 900
inhabitants. They have also in Tahiti, New Caledonia
and elsewhere valuable possessions, If either both
countries support American policy in the Pacific they
must expect that Japan will, in her own time take
her vengeance. And against that vengeance they are
helpless -.
Accordingly it is than good sense for
the French and the Dutch, who have little interest in
seeing our views prevail in China and every
for desiring to keep good with Japan, to
look to us for a guarantee against Japanese attack,
before they support thesis in the matter of the
Pacific. But does anyone suppose we would give such
a guarantee? No, for this would be tantamount to
revivng in the Pacific precisely these guarantees
which President Wilson through the league of nations
extended the smaller states of Europe, and it would
also amount to revving the Ango-French-A American
treaty Of insurance for France.
