The Bait.

The bait which Administration
leaders in Congress are dangling be-
fore the Democratic members Of that
body, in an effort to bring about adop-
ton of the legislative measures which
the President has demanded, is the
prospect of an early adjournment
There is talk and more talk by the
leaders almost daily of their plans
to wind up the session and permit the
legislators to go home. With a con-
gressional campaign already under
way, the desire of many of the men,
bers is to be free to return to their
own constituents, to rebuild their
fences and generally prepare for the
ordeal which is ahead of them. If
the adjournment surge becomes great
enough, then it may sweep before 1t
the measures which the President
deems essential, particularly if it be-
comes apparent that unless these
measures are enacted into law there
Is every prospect of a session lasting
into the Summer.
The word has gone forth that the
Presidents legislative program is
being trimmed to the very essentials
such as the revenue bill, the re-
ciprocity tariff bill, the stock exchange
regulation bill and a bill to extend for
another year the so-called temporary
bank deposit guarantee clause of the
present law. which guarantees the
bank deposits up to $4,000. The bill
for insurance against unemployment,
the Wagner labor bill, the Dill bill
for communications commission,
silver legislation, restoration to their
owners of deposits in closed banks,
and even permanent airmail legisla-
ton seem to have been eliminated
from the program for the present ses-
SION
Even with the elimination of much
Of the program, there are so many
controversial matters in what Is left
that an adjournment by May Is. less
than month away, of which some of
the leaders talk rather glibly, seems
entirely out of the question. Further
more, consideration may have to be
given to the demands of the large
blocs urging silver legislation and ask
ing that legislation permitting the pay
ment of depositors in closed banks be
enacted. Should any considerable
number of these members become re-
sentful because their pet measures
were being sidetracked, they might
easily slow down the rest OF the pro-
gram.
The reciprocity tariff bill, although
it has already gone through the House,
has to run the gantlet of the Sen
ate. No one knows just how long the
members of the Upper House will de-
bate this bill Some of the most
optimistic say two weeks. But when
the Senate gave two weeks to the
consideration of the revenue bill.
measure which contained no pro-
visions half so controversial as the
tariff plan of the administration, two
weeks seems a remarkably short time
for consideration of the tariff meas
TIRE, which is yet to emerge from the
Finance Committee.
Congress at times can move with
great speed. 1t is the desire for such
speed that the leaders are trying to
inculcate into the members gener-
ally. There are, however, issues of
importance which are demanding
more deliberate consideration. The
speed with which measures were
rushed through the first session of
the present Congress has been some
how lacking.

What shall be done about people
who insist on making disagreeable re-
marks?
First, one must separate them as
TO ages.
Old offenders are worse than young
ones. There is some hope for the
youngsters, but none for the oldsters.
The man who attains what used to
be called a ripe old age without in
the same time learning to be pleasant
to his fellow men is hopeless.
Especially when he conceals his
nastiness under the guise of joking.
Joking is natural to young people,
especially men, but by the time a
man gets gray he ought to realize
that life is, after all, not such a
joking business as he once assumed.
Great good humor, with the young.
is a pose. You have but TO pick up
any students magazine to see that.
You have but to listen to the con-
versation of high school boys and
girls. Their banter is as much put
on as their hats and insignia.
The old man who insists on fling
ing sarcastic remarks as others. es-
pecially others who, by their actions
and speech, continually remind him
to mind his own business, is much to
be pitied, because the passing years
have rolled over him to little purpose.
These thoughts are brought up by
a letter from serious young man
working in big Government depart
ment, who wanted to know the line
of conduct he should adopt in
handling" such persons.
There are several well known and
often used lines of action.
The first of these is the most COM
mon, the counter retort in kind
Its good point is that it often dis
arms the other.
Its bad. that it puts one on his
same level

rather effective in proper hands. IN
fortunately. the serious-minded per-
son does not possess the proper sort
of mental hands" if one may put it
that way.
He dislikes the typical banter put
over by an envious mind in the guise
Of good nature.
He sees through the sham by which
this old wolf poses as a Spring lamb.
He does not care to answer in kind,
because the thing is not his kind at
all
The world Is filled with these hon.

There are great many more OF them
than one Is likely to think. because so
many Of them have been forced, as
1t were. into an adoption of this mode

Laughing acceptance Of the charge
is another generally used method.
This treats the whole thing as a
huge joke, and to some extent takes
the sting out Of it.
Most of this sort Of banter is in
the form of accusation.
Even when put with a smile, 1t Is
an accusation underneath.
BY jokingly accepting it. one at
tempts to put it entirely on the plane
Of the joke.
This method often forces the other
to throw of his lambs cloak and ap-
pear in the guise OF the wolf he
really is.
A wolf. unfortunately. who often
seeks to tear down something another
has built up. Mankind does not like
