ETY.. grief. and increasing weari-

emotions. They did not know
whether the Indians were follow

that they might not be was a
sort of torment in itself.
AT MOMENTS the tired mind
embraced it. and one had to force
ones self back to the realization
that it was a possibility which
could not be acted upon. What
guided his actions was the knowl-

had probably gained upon them

the black necessity Of regaining

When the Slst Congress opened three months ago
we all had high hopes that this would be the best
Congress i'll history. So Tar, the record has not
lived up to our hopes.
A lot of hard work has been done in committees
and a number OF important bills, including the .Ad-
ministration bills to repeal TAFT Hartley. are now
ready for action. Before us is a long, hard, floor
fight, not only on repeal, but on every
single piece OF progressive legislation from housing
To health insurance.
We can take ONE pride in those Congressman and
Senators whom we supported last November. With
surprisingly few exceptions, their records so far are
consistent with their campaign promises to support
liberal legislation.
Whether the liberal forces in this Congress can
muster the votes to carry out the liberal program
which we expected. remains to be seen. On many
issues the Slst Congress is dominated by the same
rcactionary Republican leaders who led their party
to disaster in the old SOth Congress. These reaction

Liberal Movements
Suffer Setback

The iilibuster IS over. The dam
age done cannot be measured yet.
Liberal movements before Congress
have all suffered a setback. And
the reason, which thoughtful people
have recognized from the beginning,
has been brought home to the sup
porters OF everyone Of the liberal
movements. whether they be in the
health field, the labor field, the ed
ucation field, or the care OF veterans.
The opponents Of these measures
have been united. The proponents
Of each measure have been divided.
We have seer a reenactment OF the
old Roman theory OF divide and
rule. Th;t has been the conserva-
tive approach at all times. Those OF
us who are in favor Of some one
cause fail to realize that that
cause is related to other liberal
causes and that if a unity canno,
be developed, the individual cause
will not be successful.
Those who favor liberal move
ments in America cannot expect aid
from ~reactionaries. They can only
get aid from other liberals, there
fore the necessity Of uniting to
help each other.
The filibuster was successful be-
cause the conservatives among the
Democrats and the conservatives
among the Republicans voted to-
gether. The American liberal pro-
gram has suffered a setback. Now
there is no use crying over spill
milk. There is no use in pointing
ont that we should not have let thai
occur, because we did let that occur
and the damage is done.
The great struggle brought abou'
under the leadership Of Presiden
Wilson wei thirty years ago. which
resulted in a partial cloture ant
which has been successful let o
twice in the last thirty years, ha.
probably received its death blow
Cloture will likely never be attemp
ted again under the present rule
because the odds are so great.
The only way now that clotur'
can be brought about is to unite E.
Senators. That is almost an i'm
possibility. l say it because It
