It finally took seven men Bonus Bill, as present timers are aware, is terrorizing congress and the whole membership combined can’t “get” him. Whenever he appears in a congressional committee it’s all off with further pro- ceedings. When he sets foot on the floor of the house or senate, members turn pale and seek the cloak-rooms. He has been to the White House, and President Harding, still nervous, has let it be known that his private opinion of congress won't be enhanced much if they can't hold him off in the future. Bonus Bill is worse than Wild Bill ever was, for he’s everywhere at the same time —on the telephone, riding the telegraph wires, ringing at the doorbell, and stopping officials on the streets. He comes with the postman and with delegations. He’s the latest walking nightmare. Privately, many a congressman will admit he could “get” old Bonus Bill if some- body would tip off said congressman on Bonus Bill's politics. To put it baldly, is Bonus Bill a vote-getter or a vote-killer? Only the future, it seems, can answer that query and meantime the terrorizing of Washington continues. : Going to Genoa The Genoa conference has got into difficulties before its com- It has divided Eu- repe into two groups.

The train ran over a flock of geese and killed them. The owner sued because the engineer had not complied with the regula~ tion. It was argued in the opinion that the animal kingdom was very extensive, that even worms might Be included in it. It was stated it would be perfectly ridiculous to ap- ply that statute to such a case asa fishworm being on the track, con- sequently it was necessary to draw the line somewhere; and they thought the goose was a proper Place at which to draw the line.— Senator Poindexter (RJ, Wash. Morning vs. Atternoon Papers The Christian Science Monitor of Boston has given up its ex- periment of publishing as @ morning newspaper and returned to the afternoon field. Here is its reason, as stated to The Fourth Estate, a newspaper trade journal: “The change from a morning to an evening paper was made main- ly beeause, in the opinion of the publishers, the paper is one meriting careful reading in the home and is not of the type that is desirable for the man taking @ hurried glance at his newspaper in the street car or on his way to his office,” said Willis J. Abbot, the editor.

Bullets and Ballots The Japanese government has summoned troops to defend the partiament building against Tokyo mobs, clamoring for manhood suf- frage. The inevitable ts happening. Japanese militarism is on the de fensive, and calls instinctively for bullets to keep the ballot from the people. If the Japanese government is wise, it will stop short of blood- shed, for should the people be driven desperate, anarchy and the wild destructiveness of bolshetism may be the eutcome At the close of the Washington disarmament conference the young Crown Prince Hirohite, regent of Japan during the mikado’'s illness, appealed to the army and navy to redouble thelr efforts at guarding the throne. The militarists sur- rounding Wirohito exacted that threat against the people because the results at Washington did not exalt militaristic government such as prevails a Tokyo. The Japanese people are re- sponding to this menace of con- tinued autocracy in a way that encourages a belief in their deter mination to free themselves from the domination of the war mak- ers. The time is opportane. Prince Yamagata, founder of Japan's modern army and undis- puted leader of the militarists, bas just died. Nobody remains among the living with sufficient prestige to succeed him. A group of 50 Japanese now controls af- fairs at Tokyo in the interest of the military clans. Fifty leaders are more easily overthrown than one. Fifty details of policy would the government. The vast major. ity of Japanese cannot vote be cause they lack the necessary qualification as direct taxpayers. With or without a leader, the Japanese must end that siultify- ing obstacle to progress, for free dom's sake.
