The Raymer enterprise., 1922-09-28

HAVING accomplished what the Re-
- publican leaders called great
achievements In legislation and econ
omy and what their Democratic rivals
described as nothing, or worse than
nothing, congress wound up Its long
session on Friday and adjourned. The
spokesmen for the majority especially
stressed the fact that the national ex-
penditure Is being reduced at the rate
Of 81 $1,0O0,000,00O n year. They added
that in three years the public debt
has been reduced us much as it was
reduced in fifty years following the
Civil war. Senator Harrison, Demo
crat, said the record of congress was
"a terrible thing to take back to the
people"

paid for with cash. Is a perversion OF
public funds, reversal Of the policy
which exalted patriotic service In the
past. and suggests that future defense
is to be inspired by compensation rath-
er than consciousness Of duty to flag
and country"
Whether he was right or wrong in
his course, the President certainly was
courageous, for the pressure brought
to bear on him In favor Of the bonus
bill was tremendous. and the fall cleo
tions are not far away. But congress
had refused to devise and enact II
measure which he could approve as
sincere and based on correct financial
principles, so that the law makers
rather than the chief executive should
bear the onus OF adverse criticism. The
American Legion and other advocates
Of compensation for the ex-seryice
men will continue the agitation for a
bonus.

1t became effective at midnight. Vast
quantities Of imported merchandise
were withdrawn from government
warehouses just before the new rates
went into effect, and vessels hurried
into port to discharge their cargoes.
Chairman Marvin Of the tariff CON-
mission informed the President that

on the commission through the opera
ton Of the so-called flexible and scien.

Newberry will be thought more of
for having resigned. His was the sin
of permitting the expenditure of too
much money for his election to seat
in the Senate. His confreres have re-
ceived undeserved criticism for their
failure to unseat him. They acted in
accordance with precedent and the
failure of the courts to find illegal ap-
plication of the huge fund expended.
1t was said that he should have been
unseated as a matter Of public policy.
Setting such precedent by a body
like the United States Senate is dan
gerous thing, as is obvious. But New
berry, although his record of service to
his country is one that no man should
be ashamed of, was found guilty be-
fore the bar of public opinion. Even
Senators who voted against unseating
him, condemned him, as did powerful
newspapers. From the standpoint of
political morality, the expenditure of
the huge sum in his election was ma
tional scandal. The incident should
result in some comprehensive legisla-
tion governing election slush funds.
