Words Words Words (An edltorlal) HE president’s message to the first regular session of the new congress is a conglomeration' of conflicting political and economic theory. In places it contains lofty statements of the justice of the aspirations of the struggling masses of the world; /in others it adopts the theory that the present unrest is “superfi- . cial” and can be remedied by suppressing thé radicals. ' : Both free trade and protection are advocated. Most of the sweeping demands of labor are given indorsement, including the right to strike, yet the injunction as a means of crushmg labor is defended. Nothing is said of the pressmg railroad problem, the Mexican situation or the coal crisis. - He promises to cover some of these questions in later statements. Liberals will find passages of the message which seem to in- dicate a statesmanlike grasp of the fundamentals of political and economic reform so sadly needed in America, but, remembering the fate of the 14 points, will not be inclined to conmder the mes- sage seriously. The statement is notable for its lack of definite proposals. It deals mostly in generalities only,; and the president’s general statements have been found by sad experience to mean nothing. - In one place the president says: I would call your attention to the widespread condltxon of polltlcal restlessness of our body politic.

Broad- ly, they arise from, or are connected with, the failure on the part of our government to arrive speedily at a just and permanent peace, permitting return to ‘normal conditions; from the transfusion of rad- ical theories from seething European centers pending such delay; from heartless profiteering resulting in the increase of the cost of living, and lastly, from the machinations of passionate and maleyolent agi- tators. disappear.

An qnwfllmgness even to discuss these matters produces only dissatisfaction and gives comfort to the ex- treme elements in our country which endeavor to stir up disturbances in order to provoke governments to embark upon a course of retaha- tlon and repression.
