Tt means the gathering of the present con- genss ahout two weeks earlier than it ‘weuld otherwise assemble, and in that tigne there will be givep opportunity for deveting the time to setting in motion important messures which it Wwill probably be deemed wise to bring up before congress for actien at thig tigpe. It isn't to be supppsed that the two weeks will be guffielent time in which to dispose of them, but it is im- Wortdnt that matters in cangress be got- t8p underway, given an early start and thys overcome the pleas of lack of time ip which to deal with them. @ne of the impertant matters far which a special session at this time is depired is the ship subsidy, which was nPeposed at the last session but post- Wored begsuse of the pressure of other husipess. This s 3 proposition the pResident has favored and it is to be ex- Rapted that he will ‘give further indiga. tign of it whep he comes to read his mpasage “fo congress on the 20th.

In the uncertainty when some of the unexpected changes were brought aboat by the election there appeared to be the possibility -that the control gf the lower house of -congress had beem taken away by the democyais. It was 2 year when it was mot slways possible to judge by what had previgusly taken place, but from the completed retmrms it becomes evident that whatever may have beep the indicatiops of democratic coptrol of the lower RBopse much is completely re- moved and the republicans will be in control by a majority of eight. This is in Keeping with what was ex- pected. The unwieldly congress has been brought within bomnds and party action should henceforth mean more than it has in the past. It calls for and there will be better organization in the next congress. With the repyblican party retaining control it ‘means that the administra- tion is left in a position to carry f ward its program withaut the interrap- tions and handicaps of a diyided con- tro] in copgress. A small majority in the homse doesn't offer the emharrass- ment that has ‘heen encountered by the' large majority, which was so large that dificulty was experienced in hold- ing .them to' administration policies. /It will mean that due care mast be exer- cised in' the preparation of legislailon, the consideration given to it and the ac- tion taken upon it, instead of the dawd- ling and hapdicapping that has been ex- perienced with such a omesided congress as that now existing. There is of course a chance for the presept body to act “fpon the disclosures which have heen Dresented to if, but there capmot fail to be impressed upon the next comgress, which is the bedy affscted by the elec- tion, that the mistakes of the 67th con- gress shomld be noted and carefully avoided when it gets down to business. The refusal of the present hig re- publican majority to respend to lead- ership in the carrylng opt of the ad- ministration policies has heen gne of the disturbing features throughout its exist- ance, The elegtion should teach the ob- vions lessen. i THE WET AND THE DRY. The electign resufts of Tuesday are being ftudied for other reasons than to determine the republican or dema- cratic majorities. There werg pumerpus look over. instances where the vete of the peepie was sought in regard to prohibition ef the Volstead act, snd ‘while this indi- cates only state sentiment it neverthe- less is bound tp be reflected in wet and dry efforts in behalf of natienal legisla- tion in the future, By the defeat of Representative Vol- stead himself, it might have been re- garded as a direct rebmke to the law that heays hig pame were it not the fact that he has been replaced by acon- gressman who is avowedly dryer than the man whose name hag come Into such prominence. It is nqt overlogked pf course that New Jersey gets @ new senator purely because he was an opponent of the dry law, that Illinois on a referendum fa- vors light wines and beer, that Massa- chusetts on a referendum refused to en- dprge an epforcement, act passed by the legisigtute for the upholding of the Val- stead act, Neither is it pgssible to pass by the vpte {n. Ohio in favor of the en- foreement of the present law or that in California where the latest figures Indi- cate that the state has adopted a state law to harmonize with the Volstead act. What hgs been done in these gtates doesn’t affect the Volstead law. That can only* be done in congress, but it in: dicates the, efforts that are being made in,_ behalf of modification, resentment at the conditions which exist because en- forcement is difficujt, ip some in- stanees next to impossible, and makes it clear that the fight qver “prohibition can be expeeted to contipue for some time to come. - s g EDITORIAL NOTES. e L Armistice day, an anaiversary of the signing. gf peace that means so much to everyene.

When the time comes for making the final esti- mate of America’s participation in the World war, ope of the outstanding fea- tures will be qur departure from the tfa- ditiopal policy of non-interference with European matters. As the years went by We increasingly felt the wisdom of keep- ing ourselves aloof from the petty and almost constant strifes of the Old world. From Washington -to Wilson wis this policy followed. But there was nothing in the constitutien, nor in the pelicy it- self, that forbade any departure from it if circumstances ayose that would justify it. Congequently there Was no contradic- tien in our attitude, nor any infringement upon our previous action. when in 1917 we joined the allies to put down a foe who had his eye fized op New York just as truly as he did on Paris or London. It is ene of the clearest instances of all human history where one nation united Wwith other natiens in fighting 3 common enemy. for the single purpose of seif- Dreservation. S Armistice Day: Its Humanity. As was to be’expected, the United States was Severely criticised in certain quarters for throwing its power in behalf of the ens temte. Apart from the criminal aggres- sors, mo voice has heen raised against the wnselfish, humanitarian spirit of our action. It is the unfortunate testimony of the past, where several nations have fought agaigst a common foe, when vie- torous, to enter into disgraceful squab- bling over the spoils. When we joined the allieg we did not expect to add one inch of the enemy’s ground to oyr derri- tory. We did not present an enormous reparation bill, even though our expenses were enormous. We simply could not see wegtern Europe overrun with an alien peopls, without one véstige of justifica- tion. It was simply the act of a strong boy standing up and defending his smaller and weaker brother. In this light will impartial history view our par- ticipation in thé Werld war, and merited emphasis Will be put on the humanity of our action’in 80 doing. Armistice Day: Its Previouspess. It is the general consensus of intelligent opin- ion that the allies were 3 little tag hasty in calling for a cessation of fighting. But we can easily see and appreeiate their viewpoint. France was indeed Rled white; England had made her last stand with back to the Chapnel; all parties concerned were heartily sick of bleod- shed, of which they hagd geen sp much for four years. They cap be pardoned if they made a strategic blunder. But as we lopk at the comsequeneces after the smoke of battle has died away, and see the defiant, unrepentant attityde of the enemy, the question naturally arises if the victory would not have been more decisive if the armistice had been signed in Berlin, with the enemy unquestionably subdued, than upon French soil. In that case it prebably would have settled for- ever the question of a second attack. As it mow is, nothing but fack af resources prevents another slaughter. Armigtice Dgy: Tts Cost. Here I refer only to its smallest item, that of mate- rial wastage. There is no use in twying to burden our minds with figures so co- lossal that they mean nothing to us. When each of the nations svent meney | running up into the biflions, we are only dazed in trying to comprehend the awful wastefulness of war. We feel it a little more keenly in the almost bankeupt con- dition of every European state. If com- pelled to vpay its d ebts, Great Britain alope would have the appearance of sol- vency. And Great Britain is so near the edge of the precipice that ghe is afraid to ‘When we think of the num- her of business failures that this entails; the tremendous addition given to taxpay- ers already heavily burdened; the rigid economy that must be practiced by the people at large; the vast amount of &uf- fering that comes to the poorer classes hecause of lack of employment, this will give some idea of the dragons that follow in the wake of war. Armistice Day: Its Pathos. To how many is this-day nothing more than the record of tears and heartaches? The re- currence of each successive Nov. 11 tends to reopen 3 wound that will only partial- 1y heal. The day puts peculiar. emphasis upon the vacant echair. Fathers and mothers, brothers gnd sisters arg hrought 3gain into living fellowship with that bright, strong, manjy lad, the joy and life of the home, Who is now sleeping beneath the popples of Flanders. Multi- ply this ease by the million and it will give us one angle of Armistice day that we must never forget. The strongest magnet in this world is some of those beantiful and well kept cemeteties of France where the lads ip our American expeditionary force lie sleeping in their graves of homor. But when one thinks how many homes are thus joined <o Frpnpe, we feel what has thus been ‘cemegted together by the blood of heroes will never be parted by the cruel hand of war. - Armistice Day: Its Tragedy. As an aftermath of the war we sge something in our midst besides pathes in the form of memory of the brave who have gone. 1t is the tragedy of many who are living who are just ag truly victims of war as those who perished. The armiess sieeve NORWICH BULLETIN, SATURDAY, Nov, 11, 1922 GOING AHEAD WITH MUSCLE SHOALS DAM. The roar of construction work on the great Wilson dam at Shoals is sounding again through the valleys and over the hilis along the Tepnessee river. The federal govern- ment has stepped in to rescue fror possible decay the spectacular war. time nitrate and power projects, whic pprang up almost over night, involve in the building of what will be ti world's largest water-power dam. United States army engineers, who hayve bheen furnished $8,100,000.in con- gressional appropriations, are once more proceeding with the work of harnessing the mighty~ water of the Tepnessee under a government pro- gramme which provides. for the com- pletion of the dam, the installation of machinery, and the furpishing of electrical “juice” by the late winter of 1925 ®r fhe early spring of 1926. This programme is so definite that the army appropriation bill to be in- troduced in Congress Dec. 4 will con- tain an jtem making available $7,500,- 000 adgitional for the ‘work faor the fiscal Year 1923-24. They will require $7,400,000 more after that, for the fol- Jowing fiscal year, before they will have.a finished job at the dam and power house, and it' will be ready to turn the switches that send out the electrical current. The army engineer dam builders do not vex themselves with the question of what will become of the electrical energy to be harnessed from the wa- ters of the Tennessee, sometimes swollen, apgry, turhid. To the army engineer dam byilder it makes no dif- ference whether nitrates are made here}: whether fertidizer is made here; whether the Tennessce River moves the street cars in distant New Orleans; whether it drains the swamps of Flor- ida with cheap power. He does not concern himself with the question of whether a woman - with an up-to-date lectri¢ hair-curling iron in Mobile is ta bepefit, or whether the farnfer in Migsissippi, Tenpessee or Alabama is to light his premises, pump his water, or drive his machinery with the elec- trical energy to come from harness: ing of the waters. Questions such as whether Chattanooga, Memphis, Pen- sacola, or other communities shall use electrical energy from the Tennessee finally for cheap power for manufac- turing ‘purposes are questions which give the army engineer dam builder | no concern whatever. All these army men have known or cared ‘4s that, they have been halted in their work since April 15, 1921, by lack of money, when the dam was one third completed. The armistice had come. Appropriation had dribbled for a while, then stopped completely. Arm- ed sentries faded from the picture of the great work. The dam builders were obliged to turn their backs on their war-time picture of furnishing ni- trates for explopsives for the army in France by means of the water power of the Pennessee, which had called into being the plams for the dam. For a time it seemed as if the great dam were asleep. N But now an awakening has come in these ' early days ‘of November, and at the hands of the same men, the army engineers. Their picture now is one of peace, with about twelve hun- dred men at work on the dam today, soon two thousand to be swarming over the works, and the call going out for a small group of able assistant engineers. The music of the noisy rock crush- ers, the toot-teot of the locomotivés hauling sand and gravel, and the pleasant control bells of the boatss tow- ing barges in the river, are making a harmony of peace-time efficiency, un- der which the builders expect to carry out their programme of a finished job not later than the spring of 1926 with hardly ever more men at work at ape! time than two thousand to do the work four thoysand at a time, were requir- efl to do upder war-time conditions. to European soil and no one dares to shop him off. What have we gained? The growl of a continent because the mort-| gages we hold are’so big. J SUNDAY MORNING TALK A GLORIOUS PROMISE. I will bé as the dew unto Jsrael, he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon. His branches - shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, Hosea 14.5, 6. We find herg one of God's richest promises to those who repenl and turn to Him. We also have 8 beautiful picture of those who have been restored to His favor. First God promises to “be as the dew” unto these whe cease their wanderings and some to Him. The dew falls so copious- ly in the East it looks like a small show- er in the morning, and supplies the want of rain in these warm countries. Under its reviving influence vegetation flaur- ishes gnd new life is imparted to that which otherwise would die. Thus God promises His soft, life-giving influence shall be poured out upon them with new life. Then growth will be seen, “He shall and the cryteh recall the days of Verdun and .The Marme.

Sheffield ne had 40,000 resideniss, while the nitrate plants were heing built. Me: lept in tents in the elty streets an cre glad of any sort of a chance tg Today Sheffield is presumed tg wve a population of about eight thou- ind. During the war Florence housed 000 people. Today has been reduced accordingly ip size. In war dams the government had a pay-roll of 5,000 men housed in and aroynd these thres cities. But Florence, today, there is ng great influx of people because of the building of-the dam, nor will there be on account of that cepstruction work, The men at work today are bein, paid at the base rate of $2.50 per dugv but, as this is a government pay-roll, and congress has granted a bonu# to government workers, they actpally re- ceive about $3.20 per man per day ay- erage. This means an expenditure of about $4,000 per y for labor. But cement, lumber, coal, re-inforring steel and ether materials are heing pur-~ chased, eating into the appropriations. AJl the big machinery for the elec- trical power installations was bought long ago. This big machinery, tech- nically described as foyr units, each consisting of 30,000 hgrse-power tur- bines, capable of geperating all to- gether 120,000 horse-power, is on the ground, ready to he installed. So far ag construction maghinery is concern- ed, there is equipment of that char- acter on the dam works which has been inventoried at $5,000,000, and, therefore, nothing in that line, with, the exception of a tow-boat, has been needed, and that has just heen baught. Colonel W. J. Bardep, cosps of en- gineers, United Stapes army, is in charge of the dam builders. He hag been able to retain during the idle period a small nucleus ‘of the civil- ian engineering force 4nd ig now searching for a few more high-class engineers but is unable ta locate them, probably for the reslon that the gov- ernment does not pay very high sa aries to skilled technical men.

The work will go on all through the winter under the amme, he- cause there umually is no ice worth speaking of in the Tennessee.

They expect to close the apenings un- der the dam and creatp the “pool” by Jan. 1, 1925, or pet later than the spring of that year, This "paol” as engineers modestly describg it, will, in reality, be a tiful lake eight- een miles long, formed by the water they backed up by the dam. m,{ ical ma- expect to install the slectri chinery and have " electrical - curvent ready during the late winter of 1935 or the early spring of 1926.
