They realized it after a while and it was not long foi- lowing such understanding that the war took a turn for the better and victory ‘was soon accomplished, Repeatedly it has been insisted that that was the policy to follow in carry- ing out the peace terms. From time to time there have been shown inclina- tions to make the situation easier for Germany. It: has develoned that such was warranted to a certain- degree and for the most part this has been agreed upon without friction of a serious na- ture. But there has been do willing- ness on the part of France to let Ger- many ehirk its responsibility.

Congress has given little heed to the fnancial condition of the country. By dts ylelding to political expediency it means the overcoming of the benefits which have been gained through cur- tailed expenditures and tax reductions. Preident Harding has let it be known that he was opposed to any bonus legis- lation at this time, and that senate pro- posals were mors objectionable than those made in the bonus. Under the siroumstances it has been inferred that the president would apply his veto if the sales tax or its equivalent was not wdopted the country looks to him to do that very thing and #f cohgress wishes to pass it over his veto to make It, thereby, assume the responsibility which belongs to it. The duty of the presidant Seems to be clear in this matter. ——l WHERE LODGE STANDS. At the time when he is opening his campaign for re-election as senator from Massachusetts Henry Cabot Lodge has been asked by organized labor what his views are regarding the coal and’ rail- road strikes. . The position which the senator takes is cloarly set forth. He has not undertaken lo dodge any of the questions, but on the other hand has given carefully ®ated replies, so much so that there is b0 question about where he stands. Ho bas made it clear that he s for the mforcement of whatever laws are en- tcted, that he takes thls view even of the Volstead act even though he be- lioveg it should be amended and that somstitutional requirements and law should be respected wuntil they are changed. Concerning the ral and coal matters In particular he says: “I do not be- Neve in cases involving the essentials of daily life any man or body of men, Whether operators or miners, through wocident of the position they hold has any right to inflict suffering upon the people of the United States, upon men, women and chfldren wholly innocent, and feprive them of the means of keeping warm in winter, or in the right of any body of men, whether operators or miners to paralyze by withholding coal the industries of the country and thus leave millions of their fellow citizens unemployed and unable to .earn their lving. I do not believe that any man or body of men, whether railroad ex- tcutives or railroad employes, has zny right to bring suffering and even hnger upon milllons of the American peo) men, women and children, by stopping transportation.” That is a view that cannot fail to txyress the attitude of the ranik and file of American people. It is a view that most be endorsed by many within the ranks of organized labor, and nothing has served better to demonstrate the need of giving the president the auth- ority to stop just such things in the tuture, or to enact legisiation that will provide sufficient power for the govern- ment to deal with such injustice to the general public than the strikes which tave been conducted for the past sev- wal months imvolving coal and twans- Yortation.

He was not en- yaged in an effort to reach the pole or to see how near he could come to it. Hig object was to obtain scientific data voncerning sections of the north about which there is some meager informa- tion, though it would appear as the re- wmi of his explorations that while some- ing is known about the islands and points of land there have been charted some of such which do not exist. Neot all those who go into the frozen morth fueceed in their undertaxihy. They unquestionably have plenty of try< ing experiences but’they do not always rezea their goal. From all indleations it woud appear that MacMillan has especially successful for in the two miles that have been traveled which has come out of the war in much better condition than France there is a more tolerant attitude. Perhaps it takes a broader view and thinks more of the future. Because of the difference in the views there has been iidicatel the possibilities of a break in the solid allied front with Great Britain believ- ing one thing should be done and France demanding payments or invasion of the Ruhr as a penalty. : This has placed the reparation com- mission in @ ticklish position.

He gained his first knowledge of the western' prarie when little more than a boy, thereby laying the foundation which afterwards made him the great “Path- finder” of his country. Unlike most Americans at the time, he became dissatisfied with the confines of the east, -and started out to become “The Pathfinder”—the plonser who | should make the way and open the road for others to follow to the Pacific.. Push- ing westward, laving out new traila in different directions as he advarced, he finally reached the Rockies .and was the first to mark the wzy to Oregon. Along this trail he finally reached the Pacific, paused long enough to explore the great basin, and in the dead of win- ter broke his way through the snows of | the -Sierras Into Callforna. .The government gave him his initial chance as a member of the topograph!- cal corps. “The Pathfinder” was the | first man the United States sent out fol- | lowing the Lewls and Clark expedition, | which thirty-seven years’ previously had accompished thelr rather ragged ex- by the results, was not one of specula- tions, but Instead was carefully plan- ned through maps and calculations, drawn up by Fremont previous to its undertaking.

To congress these were a veritable revelation as to the geography of the great west, and won for -Fremont a reputation as &n able, courageous and discriminating explorer. “The Pathfinder's” name was now on the lips of everybody The public sim- ply devoured everything printed regard- ing his experiences in the great west. Having conquered the Rockies he longed for similar adventures in other directions. Jt was with great joy, therefore, that he received in the spring of the following year the commission to take charge of 2n expedition which should connect his previous survey with the extreme west- ern part of the continent. It was left for him to become the ocon- queror of California, and with an invoice of men and plenty of provisions he start- ed in the spring of 1845.
