Group control does not mean anything like one man control. It is only few years since the cry of the reform politicians in this country was raised against Cannonism in the House and Aldrichism in the Senate It was charged that Uncle Joe Cannon of IIli- nois cracked the whip over the House and rode 1t like merciless monarch. But Uncle Joe was unSeated in the memora ble "Rules Flsht," and to-day he is delightfully."- harm IeSs' still as genial ever, and soon to break all records since the beginnins, of govern ment for length of service in the House The doings of Cannonism and of his famous ana able predecessor, "Czar" Reed of Maine, are matters of history.
 Has any student of American politics for gotten the anathemas that were hurled at the head of the late Nelson w Aldrich of Rhode Island? He was supposed to hold the Senate in the hollow of his hand while Uncle Joe played horse with the House All Of the Insurgents" of that day waxed promi- nent by perpetua1ly calling upon the country to end its enslaved condition at the hands Of these terrible tyrants
 some may say that there is no actual controi or congress to-day, even by groups OF men. They insist that the leaders are the men who in reality follow the crowd and only seem to lead 1t by finding out in ad- vance what the majority wants and stepping out Tn rront of the irresistible procession. rms IS partly true but 1t is also true that these men have a genius for organization TOT seeing into the depths of problems and presenting practical solutions for working day and night when others are playing golf or attending the theatres. Furthermore they have a way of bringing into line the waver1ng and recalcitrant ones who hang on the cages. They give cohesiveness to Con- gress; they bring order out of chaos.

Should the House membership be in- creased. as voted, the total membership of our Congress would be nearly Goo. The present average daily cost of the House of Representatives including sa1a- rIes and expenses, IS $I5,e63; that of the Senate IS $6,465, a total of $22,4sS. The total annual cost of both branches of Congress IS 8,186.ee6.
 The late lan1ented Big Tim" Su71i- van, after Congressional experience, averred that he would rather be lamp post on Broadway, and speaking of Con- gressnen and Washington he once said: They hitch horses to 'em down there' Of the vast and growing number of Con- gressmen there are very few who suc- ceed in emerging rom the obscurity which follows their election.

Wadsworth of New York Fernald of Maine, France of Maryland FrelinShuysen Of New Jersey. Kellogg of Senator Lodge as ex-officio member by virtue of his position as chairman of the caucus and floor leader.
 Senator Lodge is unquestionably the most influential individual in the Senate. both because of the position which his colleagues have voted to. give him and his own ability and experience. His name is already known from one end of the country to the other the author of the Lodge Reservations to the League of Nations and leader in the success full battle against the Treaty of Versailles in the Senate at the last session.
 Senator Lodgc has had long legislative and political experience. His biography reads like history of American politics and gov ernmental affairs for the last thirty years. His career as a lawmaker began in the Mass achusetts Legislature. He went from there to the House of Representatives and has been in the Senate since 1S93 He has been one of the guiding forces in Republican Ma tional Conventions since 1900. For years he has served on the Senate Foreign Relations "~-'r'ittee. of which he is chairman.
 But it would appear that Lodge brides himself most on his literary record. The list of his writings in the Conversational DiTec- tory is long and notable. and practically all of them have been on historical and politi- cal subjects. He is a graduate of liar yard College and Harvard Law School As public speaker he has few equals when

NO Question of Party
 That Will Control All

Proportionately fewer men control affairs in the House than in the Senate. That is probably due to the fact that in the smaller body each individual member counts for more. When Senator Charles Curtis Of Kansas. the Republican whip informs Sena- tor Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, the Republican floor leader, that there is a majority of six or eight for bill that the leaders desire to pass. Senator Lodge feels that the measure is safe" and ceases to worry any more about it. But if Representa- tive Harold Knutson of Minnesota. Repub- Gcan whip of the House, tells Representa- tive Frank w. Monden of Wyoming. Re publican floor leader that eight. or even twenty majority is all he count for a given measure that has been slate for pas sage MT. Mondell knows that measure is in danger. The margin is too close for comfort in a body of 435 members. It is too hard to keep in touch with them and to make sure that some of them do not change their minds at the last minute and upset the ap- pie cart.
 Both houses are in the control of Repub- Hcan majorities in the present Congress and these majorities will be so greatly increased in the next that there will be not the slight est question to which party will run the show. The majority in each house has steering committee as well as floor leader

Others are scarcely ever heard of in the news of the day. Some are great orators; others either cannot de- liver public speech or are too timorous to try.

 Men in Saddle Now
 Will Remain in New Congress
 This adds to the importance of the men who guide Congress through the maze of it's legislative duties and will increase their prominence in the current history of the country during the next four years. The men who are in the saddle in the present Congress will for the most part hold the reins in the new Congress which will suc- ceed it after March 4 next.
 It is casting no slur upon the great body or Senators and Representatives, either col lectively or as individuals, to say that small groups in each house control important legislation. That is the natural course of events in every large legislative body Since the dawn of history human beings have found 1t necessary to have leaders Popu- lar government depends upon them no less than more centralized governments And 1t has always happened, and, of course al- ways will, that the most energetic, the wis., est and the most ambitious men will emerge at the top of the heap.
