The ELIMINATING DESIRABLE EXPERTS. Republican Senators are showing an active interest in readjustment problems and have approved the ap- pointment of six Congressional com- mittees of ten members each as a substitute for reconstruction commission the President may decide to appoint under the Overman act. The purpose is to confine reconstruc- tion work to Congress and to block any any attempt to appoint men who are not members of the Senate or House. The wisdom of such action is debat- able as it would prevent the assigning of such men to tremendously import- ant positions as have been employed in perfecting our _war machine. It would mean that the country could not have the benefit of men of large calibre whose energy and braines have been so instrumental developing industry and in whipping the nation into shape to meet every emergency. There are members of Congress fully qualified to take up this respon- sible project and they should be draft- ed for the task but it is doubtful if there are stalwarts who in sixty mentally endowed for such an under- taking which requires trained special- ists. are IN Community DEPENDABLE HANDS. which been effective in providing men and womén for essential industries will be retained in office during the period of readjusting the industrial This will the con- the New Britain bureau, as 1,600 other bureaus throughout the country.

Up to date the cabinet which |Is supposed to direct affairs in Ger- many has revealed itself to be a gov- ernment of propaganda rather than an administrative and executive body and the sum total of accomplish- ments observable from this distance consists of a whine by Ebert, Solf & Co., concerning the alleged injustice of the armistice terms and what wasd a piteous appeal for help from of Germany to the women of America.

OR FOR TWENTY-SIXTH DIVISION. Lonesome home folks may be dis- | appointed at the news that New England’s khaki clad fighting men are | to form part of the American Army of Occupation which will take pos- session of territory on the left bank of the Rhine prescribed in the ar- mistice terms. But it is safe to say no such emotion swayed those same fighting men when informed of their destination. When they sailed from the rock bound shores of New Eng- land—Pilgrims headed east—the de- sire of every member of the Twenty- Sixth division was to reach German soil as quickly as possible and they would have attained their ambition if it was necessary a path through the wall of gray that stood between them and their objective, no matter what the cost. Now that the road to the Rhine is open they should not be deprived of realizing their dreams. Their selection is a testi- monial to their valor to the confidence reposed in them by our military leaders. With Gen. John J. their head, the boys from New Eng- land are “off to Germany”, the big- gest excursion in the history of the world. If it should be necessary to continue to Berlin, General Pershing will find these undaunted only too eager to start. to chop and Pershing at Yankees Among non-essential occupations must be included the post of minister of war in the new German cabinet. Watching the Rhine promises to be a popular outdoor sport among Al- lied soldiers this winter.
