Where Congress Has Failed
From the Springfield Republican

From the Springfield Republican
When m has given Congress due
credit its failures sufficiently account
for the public disappointment in its
work. The great tasks for which it
was called in special, session remain
undOne. The President early last
April declared those tasks to be tariff
and tax revision for the benefit of the
business of the country. Yet revision
is no more than half accomplished
after some five months Of the session,
and it is disappointing to the best
business judgment so far as it has
gone.
Business wanted most of all relief
from the excess profit and heavy in
come surtaXes imposed in war time,
but even the tax revision bill passed
by the House defers their repeal until
next year. Business wanted passed
the railroad funding bill bringing
$500, 900, 900 to the relief of railroad
finances, but this measure is blocked
in the Senate. Only the agriculture
block, representing in a bipartisan
way the West and South, has beer
able to command results. The great
industrial interests of the East thus
far have gone begging. More thar
that, much of the farmers relief legls-
Iation enacted is paternalistic, OF
quasi socialistic, especially in the use
made of Government credit, and II
makes merry with the Republican
slogan in the recent campaign OF
"Morc business in Government anc
/ less Government in business"

Candidates for the State Senate
this year will find that the rate for
their campaign funds has been cut in
half by the new election act. This
year they can spend only at the rate
Of five cents per vote cast at the last
Presidential election, while formerly
the rate was ten cents per vote. The
rate for Assembly candidates remains
the same, five cents per vote. The
new act doubles the campaign funds
for big State offices, so that if it
stands next year u%namended, candi-
dates for Governor and United States
Senator may eXpend $4,000 each in
the primary campaign and the same
in the regular election campaign. For
merIy the limit was $4,000. The
campaign limit for members of Con
gress is raised from $500 to $1,000
and that of candidates Of the State
Legislature, $500 to $1,000.

Confederation of Nations

The intrigue of courts by which the
system of war is kept up may provoke
a confederation of nations to abolish
it; and a European congress to pat
ronize the progress of free government
and promote the civilization of nations
with each other is an event nearer in
probability than once were the revo-
lutions and alliances of France and
America.-Thomas Paine, 1877 1908.
