POLICIES TO BE DISCLOSED SOON.

The Administration IS fast reaching the point when its policies will be clearly outlined that they may be judged. It has not reached that point yet, for. while the big things have been under very full consideration, the details for the solution of the presnt problems of first magnitude have yet been disclosed. The larger matters that pressing for solution the European policies and disarmament question, taxation and the tariff. &.f'
 The foreign policies include the sort of peace we shall make with Germany, the disposition of the Russian question and attitude toward the League Nations the character the proposed "Associa- tion of Nations for peace.
 The peace treaty with Germany has been nego- tiated. and say the terms satisfactory to both the Democratic and Republican members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee peace or disarmament conference of the nations has been called to convene at Washington in November. Upon the outcome of that much will depend. Washington dis patches say the Democratic opposition in Congress does not intend to oppose embarrass the Admin istration in any manner in working out it's policies there, but that 1t will cooperate in every way pos sibe. Democratic leaders contend that the peace or disarmament conferences is recognition of the prn- ciple that urged by President Wilson and them selves during the last half of the previous Admin istration 4@a 5lt#s ses.
 It Is declared that the Administration program regarding questions of taxation and the tariff be judged by the bills covering these matters that passed the House of Representatives It was decided apparently that taxation and tariff measures satig
 
 in the House of Representatives and President Hard ing intervened to induce the House pass the bills they were considering and refer them to the Finance Committee of the Senate for whipping into shape during the recess of Congress. It is now expected that the Finance Committee will report the tariff and taxation bills out shortly after Congress reconvenes next month. When they reported; it is said by Washington correspondents they will represent the Administrations solutions for these problems Then the issues may be joined upon them.
 It is possible that before the results of the dis armament conference shall have been presented to the country and the European policy fully outlined the debates on tariff and taxation may be underway Therefore it is probable that before the end of the present year the major policies of the Admin dstration may be known to the country By that time questions of patronage and distribution the offices VIII De a1ry well cleaned and the decks will been cleared for discussion of real issues.
 Fortunately there has been disposition among the people generally to give the Administration ample time in which to set the house in and to con sider thoroughly the problems that confront launching its remedies for ills and it's constructive program. This attitude should continue People must not permit differences of opinion and conflict ambi tions over the division of the loaves and fishes to cause them to render nasty judgments. After all the personnel of the public service is very minor matter cerned The things that are worth while are the ad minstrative and constructive policies and the quality of the public service.
