The world} leoked to Germany as the source of knowledge of organic chemistry, and more particularly as the pee from which we had to obtain products of that dustry. Necessity compelled us to enter the production of organic chemicals when our supply was shut off from Germany, and we developed an industry that was second to that of ro other countyy which took up its development during the war. The deyelop- ment was unhindered by competition from the out- side but now this war barrier, together with the war-time legislation, is removed and the competi- tion of Germany, with her great chemical cartel, is making itself felt. If our organic chemical indus- try, with all the vitally important developments which are a part of it, is to survive and develop, it. must have the support of a sympathetic and understanding public. For these reasons, the attention of every business man and every industry should be directed to the 4mportant part chemistry has played in the devel- opment of their individual businesses. There is gsearcely an industry that has not been materially affected, even revolutionized, by the application of chemistry to its problems. ea The True Spirit. IXEMPLIFICATION of the true Christmas - spirit may occur anywhere on earth.

It was a tense moment even for children of ten-! der years. Wonld Dorothy comply with the de-| ision of fate and be generous with the child of her father’s slayer? | The question came to the mind of every pupil. The orphaned Dorothy hesitated but a moment, |then arose in her place aad said with a firmness beyond her. years: “It wasn’t her fault. Her daddy took mine away. but the law is going to take hers away from her to pay for it, and it isn’t her fault. I will give her a present.” | Dorothy gave her classmate a story-book. The best she could afford. What a simple, beautiful story it is! ‘lessom.in Christian nobility it gives a sordid world. What a gleam of light to the darkened pathwa) through the vale of tears which humanity travels! This child was too great of heart to permit the weight of her own sorrow to crush out the justice nd consideration due the blameless daughter of her own father’s murderer. | serps ti Ss | Defeats Popular Government. yy OnLY aside from its subjejet matter and its| i merits, the shipping bill is serving one good, purpose. It is arousing the public to the menace of the filibuster. If the consideration of the shiy measure should result in a change in the rules of the United States senate so that a filibuster would no longer be le, that in itself would be a tre-| mendous gain for popular government. | Representative government is based upon the j theory that the majority rules. It is based upon | the theory that when a party is given control of the legislative branch of the government it assumes) ! responsibility for the carrying out of its platform| | and npaign ;‘edges and the responsibility for | { the passage ¢¢ the defeat of all measures. Unless representative government means this it means nothing. If a \‘ler ¢ majority elected by the people is denied the right to rule through obstructive pro cesses, then we have a denial of the very things upon which this government rests. | The filibuster is a denial of representative gov- ernment. It is a denial of the right of the ma jerity to rule. It ts the very essence of the rule| not even of a minority, but the rule a handful. | a mere half-dozen of malcontents, who take ad | vantage of a quirk in our senate’s legislative ma-| chinery to block all legislative procedure, to para lyze the legislative branch of the government. Such a filibuster is being conducted against the ship| subsidy measure, | Unless the senate can and does revise its rules so} as to prevent the use of the filibuster, the future holds no hopes of any party's proposed program becoming an actual no prospect of any con- structive legislation of any kind if a handful of en in the Senate see fit to block all progress by the use of the filibuster. Irrespective of whether one 1s in favor of the ship subsidy or against it, all those who believe iy the maijority ruling must condemn the methods being invoked to prevent the measnre from com ing to a vote, If the measure is as bad and unpop- war as its opponents claim, it will in all probab- ility be voted down, if a vote-is taken. If it is bad and unpopular and a Republican majority insists upon passing it. then it is clear that nothing should} he more desirable from a Demerratic standpoint | than to hasten the day when the vote may be taken . other other don’t may be more certain. So that from the standpoint of the sincere enemies of the bill, the filibuster is hynocritienl and indefensible. Tf by the use of the filibuster a half-dozen men can prevent the United States senate from reaching n vote upon the ship subsidy. another half-dozen men can prevent the senate from veaching a vote upon any other subieict at any. future time. The house of representatives has reformed legislative procedure so as to make. a filibuster there impossible. This accounts ir. a large meas- ure for the dispatch with which the house pro- ceeds. The senate has not amended its legislative procedure. Public opinion condemns the dilatory ethods of the senate, irrespective of which party is in power. Public opinion is going to grow more critical of these methods until the senate reforms them. Public opinion does not stand back of the filibuster. Public opinion does not approve of stretching senatorial courtesy to the point where two or three obstreperous individuals, for spite work or other reasons, can hold up the entire leg- islative branch of the government and leave the country in uncertainty as to what policies are going to be enacted into law or what measures are going to be defeated. Such procedure is a denial of the very fundamentals of our government and they will not be tolerated much longer. The consideration of the ship subsidy bill and the filibuster which is being carried on by a few men for the purpose of preventing the. senate voting upon the ship subsidy has served ¢o accentuate the menace of the filibuster and to hasier. the day when the senate will reform its legislative methods.
