indications of a more satisfactory
situation are seen first of all in the

very nearly effected. an equilibrium
between exports and imports, as well

"These factors have an important

relations of European countries to

that an foreign countries have in

SPEED THE DAY.

"If you haven't got what you
want, strikel If striking means
dead babies, suffering women,
enormous loss of property and
general decentralization to industry.
never mind. You may procure
better wagesw
If that isn't the argument of
those who believe that coal strike
or railroad strike is the one best
bet when it comes to getting more
money for less work, what is?
"The right to strike" is unques-
toned. But it doesn't stand alone.
1t can only have real existence
when coupled with the "right to
work"
But strikers not only want to
stop work themselves, but to stop
others from working; not only to
cut off the flow of coal from thei.
mines, but to prevent, by sympa-
th etic strikes of others, the inflow
of coal from foreign ports or from
non-union, non-striking miners.
In other words, it is not to be the
justice of the striking demands, but
the suffering, the loss and the gen.
eral damage of a strike which is to
get these demands granted.
We are patient, long suffering
people. We have extreme toler-
ance for anything done in the
name of liberty, even il it hurts us.
We like to exercise liberty our
selves.
Some day these United States
OF ours will realize that the 33

gagged in transportation-have no
right, CALI it by what name you
will, to injure the 90 7 per cent of
us who don't mine, or the 81 3 per

WASHINGTON
NEWS NOTES
BY WALLACE BASSFORD..
Especial News Correspondent

Back in June, 1919, Senator Hard
my wrote letter to William f.
Brewster, whose Office is in the Ed
ison Building in Chicago, critciz.
lug Elihu Root for his stanafavor-
ing the League of Nations. In the
letter Harding said, II am perfect
ly frank to say he has not been so
helpful as he might have been ia
dealing with this matter If he had
been free from professional entan-
clements which have committed
him more or less to the Leagne of
Nations plan" That could only
only mean one thing-that Root
was paid attorney of some party
ia interest. If Harding knew that
to be true-and he would be doing
a very strange thing to make such
a charge unless fle had his proofs
why did he appoint him as the
senior American delegate to the
Arms Conference, which was to me-
gotiate treaties among the Nations
that were principals at the Versail-
les Conferepce?' A New York pa
per says it is because President
Harding, backed by the interna-
Nonal bankers of New York, seeks
the sort of alliance which Root
WAS paid to advocate. He adds
that George Harvey was and is the
salaried publicity agent of J. P.
Morgan & Co, that he was their
representative at the Chicago con-
Vention and eided greatly in secur-
ing the nomination of Harding
Now he is Ambassador to England
and England's fiscal agent in
America for many years past has
been that same firm of j. 2. Nor
gan &c Co., and advocates the re-
union of the two countries, divided
by the sword of George Washing
ton on the bloody field of York
town. Then came Ambassador
Geddes with newspaper interview
in criticism of Senator Hiram
Iohnson's attitude on the Four
power Treaty, and Harding utters
not word. Could anything be in
worse taste than for the Am bassa-
dor of a foreign power to do this?
For a similar and less offense
President Cleveland gave Lord
Peuncefote his walking papers.

States Government.

n
Republicans are urging Harding
to get out in the forefront and lead
his party in the coming campaign
he declines to exert himself to
save lot of Representatives who
have neglected every opportunity
to aid the country to get back on
its feet But it .is interesting to
reflect that born leaders of men
never have to be urged to get out
in front-they are already there.
The country is slowly and natur-
ally recovering from it's industrial
stagnation. Fhe Republican Con-
gress elected in the middle of Pres
ident Wilson's term would render
him no aid in his efforts to get the
country back on sound basis;
they thought it good politics to
follow Penrose's suggestion to "let
the people sweat" They are still
sweating. There are many thous-
ands who should find no difficulty
standing in line waiting for a
chance to vote next November, af-
the having stood in line SO often at
soup kitchens in the cities, waiting
their turn. Conditions are improv-
ing, but it is difficult to discover
just what thing this Congress can
point to as having aided in the re-
covery. 1t has done nothing, and
done it poorly. The country will
recover-it has always done So
even in spite of the sort of states
at the helm in Congress.
Senator Poindexter of Washing
ton has written a long letter to
farmer constituent who had the
termity to ask him why he voted to
seat Newberry when the evidence
showed that the latter had pur-
chased his seat in the Senate. It
took good deal of paper and
whole typewriter ribbon to make
an explanation that was satisfac-
tory to Poindexter. Then the eco-
nomical Senator, to save lot of
postage stamps, put it in the Con-
gressional Record as "part of his
80 that he could send it
all over the State under his frank.
Senator Caraway rose to ask the
Senator why he had voted for New
berry after having denounced Isaca
Stephenson some years ago for
having bought a Senate seat. 1t
may be possible that Poindexter
thought Stephenson had gotten his
to cheaply, for he paid less thar
half as much as Newberry-but
then, everything is higher since
the war. It is interesting to note
that Senator Caraway is still wait
ing for PoIndexter to- explain the
why of it.
The Democratic Senators, in vot-
ing for the Fonr-power Treaty,
gave the country an example of
broad craftsmanship that shows
fine contrast to the attitude of the
Republican Senutors on the Ver-
sales Treaty. After all it is said
and done, the two treaties are very
similar-they are blood brothers.
The later one is League of Ma
hons on a smaller and somewhat
limited scale. 1t was provided for
by the Democratic Congress in the
Naval Act of 1916, and even the
expense money was provided at
that time. It stilllies in the Treas
nry, unused, for the Republicans
