When informed that the filibuster had prevailed, President Wilson issued the following statement: "The termination of the last session of the sixty-fourth Con gress by constitutional limitation, discloses a situation unpar alleled m the history of the country, perhaps unparalleled in the history oi any modern government.

The mil winch would have permitted such combinations of capital and ol organization in the export and import trade of the country as the circumstances of international competition have made impera tive, a bill which the business judgment of the whole country ap- dim ii-ui, iiioo nas laucd. "The opposition of one or two Senators has made it impos sible to increase the membership ol' the Interstate Commerce Com mission or to give it the altered organization necessary for it' elhciency. The conservation bill, which would have released foi immediate use the mineral resources which are still locked up in the public lands, now that their release is more imperatively neces sary than ever, and the bill which would have made the' unused water-power of the country immediately available for industry have both tailed, though they have been under consideratior throughout the sessions of two Congresses and have been twict passed by the House of Representatives. "The appropriations for the Army have failed, along with llu appropriations lor the civil establishment of the Government tin appropriations for the Military Academy at West Point, and the general deficiency bill. It has proved impossible to extend tin powers of the Shipping l'.oard to meet the special needs of the new situation into which our commerce has been forced or to in crease the gold reserve of our National banking system to meet the unusual circumstances of the existing financial situation. "Put the Senate cannot act unless its leaders can obtain unanimous consent. Its majority is powerless, helpless. In the midst of a crisis of extraordinary peril, when only delinite and de cided action can make the Nation safe or shield it from war itsell iy me aggression ol others, action is impossible. "Although as a matter of fact the Nation and the representa tives ol the Nation stand back of the executive with unprecedent ed unanimity and spirit, the impression made abroad will, ol course, be that it is nut so, and that other governments may act as they please without tear that this Government can do anvtbing at all. We cannot explain. The explanation is incredible. "The Senate of the United States is the only legislative body in (lie world that cannot act when its majority is ready for action. A little group of willful men, representing no opinion but theii own. have rendered the great Government of the United States helpless and contemptible. "The remedy'.' There is but one remedy. That is the rules of the Senate shall be so altered that il can act. The country can be relied upon to draw the moral.
