CIRCULATION November 16,1918 1,704 — . THE WORK OF CONGRESS. No one will be found today who will contend very seriously that the war is rot over. Certainly the fighting has Leen stopped, the terms of the armis- tice are being fulfilled. and it is per- fectly evident that the conditions arc such that there is no chance of the ntral powers resuming the war. They are in no position {o even if there was the disposition. Such being the ecase it c1nnot fail to be appreciated that the aection tiken by the renublican senators in their cauens at Waghington when they rassed reeolutions to the effect that “congress shall assert and >xercise its normal and constitutional function, in- clading legislation necessary for re- construction" was justified and that they decided upon a cotirs: which the situation calis for. Congress has its duties and it 15 ex- pected to discharge them. It ig cx- pected to meet its full responsibilities. At the outbreak of the war congress vielded patriotically to the idea of rlacing greater power in the hands of the executive. This was done to fa- cilitate the movement of the biz war machine but now that the whr is ovet it is but proper that that pelicy should he lald aside and that eongress should resume its normal function as the resolution calls for. That certainly is only proper and should he recog- nized as such by all members of con- zreds regardless of party. What was done for the purpose of aiding the ar work should of neccssity go with the ending of the war. It is time to return to the right ordér of things tnat eongress thay do what is expect- ed of it in aiding in the vast amount reconstruetion which must take place. The stand of the republicans « oniy in accord with the principles of our gevernment IS IT GOVERNMENT OWNERSMIP? Not a little sutprise has been causéd the recent order of the president that the ocean eable lines be taken over by the government, not splély hecause the proclamation was cov- ered up for a matter of twn weeks un- ti' it eould he published in the Of- Dulletin, but bhecause the actien delayed until this time, It was con- sidered well énough to leave the lines n the hands of the private owners up ctically until the time the fight- stopped, but now that the war iz over it is claimed that it is abso- Iv necessary to bring them under 1o direction of the sovernment. Not only this but the action of Post- master General Burleson, who |is niaced in control of the telephone and telegraph lines, includinz the cables, in erdering the lines cporated as If uwned by one concern s extremely difficult to understand, and particu- lirly so inasmuch as he has not been able to reach an agreement with one of the companies concerning just com- pensation Such steps taken at thie time, when he war i§ over points very strongly to tha fact that the postmaster wen- eral is paving the wayv for the gov- ernment ownership of these public utllities, and if further substantiation ef this is needed it would ceem to be furnished by the resolution introduced in the senate by Senator Lewis of Tl- linois. propesing that the senate go on record aa favering the government ownership of railroads, telegraph and telephone lines, coal and eil producing agencies and other utilities. This #ives pretty good backing to the as- sumption. of Presdent Mackay of the Postal lines that the action of the postmaster general is aimed at gov- ernment ownersnip. THE OVERTHROW IN UKRAINE. What looks like unexpeected help from within is that which has been tecelved by the allies through the anti-bolshevik forces in taking con- trol of Ukrainia. The Ukraine has had 2 stormy time since it drew away from Russla and set up a republic about a ar ago. The governments which have been established there have had the assistance of Germian and Austrian troops in their efforts to survive and preserve order but the suocess of the troops headed hy Gen- eral Denikine now means a serious blorr to the bolsheviki, It has been realized by the allies since as well as before the signing of the armistice that affairs could net be straightened out in Russia and that country allowed to get back onto its feet as long as the bolsheviki retain- ed control. The efforts which have been made to strike at it thvough Si- beria and Archangel while meeting with somé success have not succeeded in accomplishing the desired results, but 'S s W ' the sea has b opened m the sending of Whatever is necessary in the vy of war Eltcriul for the pu; ng the murderous m t 'hleh rgr the time being appears to the Upper han: The mn tion is deyelop) 4 man- ner which ean hardly be {o the liking |5 cf the Lenipe-Trotzky fanz.

Not a small part of the humiliation i connection with the caprving out of the details of the armistice terms is the surrender of luch_poruom of the German fleet a8 is called for. A sepre of underwater boats have baen turned over to the ailled fleet in British wa- ters, followed by the surrender of the fieet of “attleships, and {n addition to that number will be, the remainder of the submarines which must e glven up to the allles.. Germany relied a great deal uuon its fieet. 1t understood of course that it did not possess the sea powver of the RBritish and that it could hardly cope with the combined fleet of ihe allied powers, but it nevertheless hoped that' it could, through the stra- tegie position which it held in not he- ing forced to give battle sxeept when it was prepared for it, strike a sefics of bloews which wonld weaken its op- ponents and ithat new eopstruction would be able to make up for ether deficiencies. The big battle in the North sea made it quite evident that any haope in that direction was useless, since it was only the weather conditions which prevented it from getting n worss beating than it received, As it was it received such an awakening that the submariné warfare was resorted to with all its horrors and ne further chances were taken of yisking a clash with the allied fleet. But the subma- rines fajled in_ thelr ‘purpose even as did the bigger navdl vessels, and with the land fdrces fast being cverpowered there was nothing else to do but throw up their hands. The surrender of the naval vessels represents a dif- ferent kind of a victory ‘han the al- fied fleet would preferred to Have won. but it nevertheless I8 an acknowl- cdgment of the superiority of the ad- vereary on sei ag well nd on land Germany s admitting its defeat with- out actually belng knhocked out on the sea.
