Busted the Filibuster HE ONE MAN filibuster conducted by Repre sentative Voight to force’ consideration of his resolution to investigate the appointment of post- masters in Wisconsin is as good as broken. } House Leader Mondell has stood for the show as long as his patience would hold together and then | sent peremptory summons to every Republican|/ member absent from congress, to return at once! under penalty of arrest for, failure to respond. | The summons may have worked havoc among members who are looking after their political | fences; but Mr. Mondell took the view that the pub-/ lic business was of quite as much importance as| was the individual affairs of the absentee mem bers. | Ont of a membership of 435 only about 230 were | present in Washington. This furnishes but little more than a quorum and with this list reduced as it necessarily is at times and Representative Voight | demanding a quorum call every little while, the| house found itself helpless to transact business. | The absentees are already back in Washington by | this time and business at the old stand is resum ing. Congress has much to do in the day of unfinished work of vital importance to the country before a recess is taken over the election period and it were better if members desiring renomination and re- election at the hands of constituents would show that they deserve these things by attention to the business for which they were sent to Washingon.: attained in the past thirty days than at any time since the world war. Some industries have shown moderate gains, in others conditions have altered but little and in a few seasonal dulness has occurred. The unfavorable factors in the situation are the continued deadlock in the coal strike and in the textile mills of New England and threats of strikes by those classes of railroad labor afievied by recent decisions of the United States railroad labor board. Iron and steel output for May showed further gains, and the unfilled orders of the United States Steel corporation have mcreased. Automobile pro- duction during May established new high records. The rubber manufacturing industry is sharing in the activity in automobile manufactuM™ig. Condi- tions in the hide market are not yet satisfactory but stocks aré not large and both tanners and manufacturing consumers of leather feel reason- ably sure that prices of hides and skins will not go lower. Stocks of leather are heavy but the market is becoming more active for all classes. In the shoe industry there is evidence of a slowly im- proving demand which is being felt not onlf im the middle west but in New England, where heretofore the industry has been especially depressed. Tn the textile and related industries, the foremost problem is whether the higher prices resulting from rising costs of raw materiais can be passed on to the consumer. The wool manufacture is op- erating nearly at capacity. The cotton textile in- dustry in the south is active but strike conditions continue to prevail in New England. There is evi- dence of a slightly improved demand for broad silks but taking the country as a whole, this division of the silk industry is probably at little more than 50 per cent of capacity. The cement, lumber and brick industries have met with some difficulty in satisfying demand be- cause of the large volume of building and construc- tion under way throughout the country. The dis- tribution of agricultural implements continues to be fairly active, although the industry is still af- fected by the curtailed purchasing power of the farmer. The June estimate is for a wheat crop somewhat larger than the average of the five pre- ceding years. This offers promise of an improve- ment in conditions in those areas where wheat is the leading crop. Large yields of oats, barley and rye and a heavy hay crop are also forcast and pas- tures are excellent. Weather conditions for corn and cotton have not been satisfactory thus far, and both are late. Conditions in the retail dry goods trade vary con- siderably in different parts of the country. In some of the strike areas, business has fallen off heavily. As yet the improved outlook in agriculture is not reflected in any marked increase in buying, agricul- tural betterment thus far being primarily one of sentiment. On the other hand, a definite improve- ment is reported in those cities where unemploy- ment is being reduced and pay-rolls increased. Wholesale distribution in many lines was not sat- isfactory during May, but is now beginning to im- prove. They Have Flapped Always | ee PHILIP SOUSA the great America. band * leader and march king sends a word of cheer to the American flappers and bids them take heart of grace when they are criticized, for their sisters of three centuries ago were even more abused than are our girls of today. An English friend has just sent the great Sousa # collection of rare books from London and John Philip has put in a brief vacation perusing the vol- umes. In one, printed in 1628, written by William Prynne he has discovered these headlines regard- the dress, customs, habits and personal yani- ties of the young ladies of that period and previous ones: “The unloveliness of Love-Lockes, or a summarie discourse prooving the wearing and nourishing of a locke or Love-Locke, to be altogether unseemly and unlawful unto Christians; in which there are Accept and Go Ahead HE ATMOSPHERE is sill filled with discussion and threat in railroad circles respecting the de- cisions made during the past month affecting rail- road employement. e These are a horizontal cut of 10 per cent in freight rates, a reduction of 534 per cent of the “fair return” basis for purposes of fixing rates, and a series of wage reductions affecting 800,000 men. The effect of the cut in freight rates can not now be gauged, and the reduction in the “fair re turn” basis is not likely to have any immediate effect, by the action of the Interstate Commerce Commis‘%on is regarded in some quarters as indi- cating a continuation of its policy, which has mil- itated against securing adequate capital. Wages Fonstitute the most important phase of the problem of rates. The reductions ordered by the United States railroad labor board are estimated at $100,- 000,000 annually and have caused much criticism by railroad labor as being too drastic. They have ‘caused equal criticism by railroad officials as being insufficient in relation to the rate cut. The economic unity of the United S future development are dependent on adequate railroad transportation and such transportation must ultimately pay its way, whether by freight rates or by taxation. Experiments in jgovern- mental ownership, operation and control through- out the world during recent years have proved be- yond question that private operation, with all its faults, is more economical and efficient than pub- lic operation and control. Ultimately railroad rates will have to be fixed at a point which will render the roads self-supporting and make railroad ‘securities sufficiently attractive to provide capital for necessary extensions and satisfictory mainten- ance. ‘The most perplexing problem in connection with transportation is the determination of rates which will be fair and productive. From the very nature of the case ratefixing is always sure to be some- what arbitrary delicate adjustment being required to guard against depriving the roads of freight by rates too high, and against financial disaster through rates too low. The problems involved are so complicated that the only reasonable line of action on the part both of the railroads and of the railroad workers seems to be to accept in good faith the decisions as rendered in order that they may be tested by time. ates and its Speaking of Logic Wayne B. Wheeler general counsel of the Anti-Saloon league of America, says the “whole bootleg, ram running, law defying army” is concentrating for an attack upon the constitu- tion by means of a beer and wine amendment, he says what is not quite logical,” complains the Idaho Statesman. “The bootlegger and rum runner are strong for prohibition. They thrive on it. The man who de- fies the law has little thought for what statutes and constitutions say; too little, certainly, to make any effort or spend any money to have either changed. “There is bound to be a new effort made to ad- just the prohibition laws and the issue may well enought be one of law and order, as Mr. Wheeler says; but to the casual bystander who prefers not to take sides it will appear that Mr. Wheeler weakens his case by resorting to the old political dodge of maligning the opposition. By calling the beer and light wine people “hoot- leggers, rum runners, and law defiers,” Mr. Wheel- er hopes to stir up public sentiment against them. And he might, too, were it not for the fact that unfortunately he applies to them the-names-of the people who are most happy to let prohibition con- tinue. . “Voters are often convinced by a politician who usese precious little logic, but they do demand a little more than Wheeler has given.” be Casper Daily Cribune ENCOURAGING INCORRIGIBILITY Lovely asa Dream | The world today is lovely as a dream, More lovely than a dream, for dreams are fleet .

Our Neighbor Love we our neighbors as ourselves With all our strength and mind. And let our inmost hearts aye be, To their misfortunes kind. Who is our neighbors? De we ask? Christ gave the example when He told the Jewish lawyer, It was all our fellowmen. He spoke of a weary traveller That was robbed and le‘t half dead With many wounds and bruises And cuts upon his head. And how the Priest and Levite Passed him by unheeded there, And pitted not his suffering, Nor his looks of blank despair. Then came the Good Samaritan, The last though not the least, Who tenderly raised him up And placed him on his beast. And took hi mto the tavern, "And took him to the tavern, And paid the host to care for him Until he did get well. Then love our neighbor as ourselves, And as we would that they ‘Treat us may we treat them, and thus Our Lord's divine command obey. —TOM McMILLAN, Casper, Wyo. Breaking Traditions ‘The infependence and initiattve of Pins XI. have furnished plenty of jolts to the nerves of the staid mem- bers, of the vatican. When he an- nounced that a woman was coming to live in the vatican the skies almost fell. The highest authorities protest- e4 almost tearfully: “But, your holi- ness, this is against all traditons.” Whereupon Pope Pius answered: “Then we will begin a new traditon.” So the first woman in centuries ts now installed permanetty tn the vati- can, She is Signora Linda, a woman of 60, who for 40 years has been a servant in the household of the pope's mother and was his governess. When the then Cardinal Ratti's mother died Signora Linda became homeless and went to a convent in Milan. Now Signora Linda has an apart- ment near that of the Pope in the vat- ican end is practically its housekeeper. supervising the papal wardrobe and! in various shades of green, principally those of his secretaries, ordering the meats:and making trips to the kitchen to see that everything ts prepared in accordance with the pope’s stmple tastes. She dresses like a nun and is a plain but intelligent woman who reads newspapers and prays much. She already has cut down the householi expenses greatty from the senerous budget maintained by the late Pope Benedict. The Popular Color London society is turning green— not with envy but as a result of the fact that Princess Mary received anj emerald engagement ring. It has been coming gradually, and reached its pinnacle last week, when green was widely chosen as the adornment of court gowns. Bond street dressmakers declare there is a demand for entire toilett for merrymaking. frocks. The verdant vogue is apparent in the theaters and fashionable restaurants, well dressed folk carrying large briliant fans of emeraid ostrich or coque feathers. Hair bands also are green. and the color of Chinese jade is in great de- mand. Even gloves have green gaunt- lets. Green predomtnates in bathing cos-| tumes at the fashionable beaches. ‘The vogue has penetrated even the sanc- tity of the household, where fashton- able housewives have found the color conducive to repose. When Lady Joan Capel, the half American daughter of the Earl of Essex, was married to Osbert Peaks! this wek, she defied the fates and had the entire scheme done in green even to the disposition of the bridesmaids.
