' WASHINGTON, D. C, Sept. 12.
(Special.) There Is some evidence of
a disposition among the republican
leaders to do something about the
senate. The stagnation of the more
Important business in that . body is
the heaviest burden the repuniican
leaders have on their minds. They
blame the trouble on a lack of party
solidarity, lack of party discipline,
and other defects under the. general
bead of lack of stern and aggressive
narty leadership. . - - -
The republican majority has all the
machinery of leadership but the . ma
chinery does not . work. They have
the steerihg committee, which does
not steer" successfully, and they have
the caucus, which In the words of a
rather far fetched, double play spun
committed by one disgusted republi
can, "does not caw and does not cuss
enough. A little emphatic
, Discipline One of Needs.
f A little . discipline is the thing,
which in the mind of this republican,
Is. needed. Teh official republican
leader of the senate is Lodge, who
Is about the only leader. He is the
republican floor leader. He is the
chairman of the republican steering
committee and of the republican cau
cus. That Lodge- was' a most accept
able leader during the league of na
tions fight is the testimony of every
republican who looks upon that fight
from a party point of view. That It
"fas just Lodge's quality of tempera-
Dient and personality that saved the
party from flying Into fragments Is
accepted by every one. But for one
reason or another Lodge's leadership
this session has lacked his former
success. It is true the republicans have
put througK an amount of legislation,
which under ordinary circumstances
would be a fairly full record. But the
circumstances are not ordinary. Tht
two things which the republicans
promised to put through the tariff
and taxation are not through yet.
from the point of view of the admin
istration this .is pretty bad.
Abdication Is . Sua-cented.
I Again and again Lodge has em
phasized that the two .things, and
these alone, constituted the- adminis
tration programme.. The administra
tion was not Insisting upon. anything
else. In fact. President Harding has
pointedly made it clear that these
two were only, points on which he
desired pressure exerted. Up to Jate
congres has passed a good deal of
legislation that Harding was not con-
cerned about, but has failed to pass
the two things promised. Some want
Lodge to abdicate.
, The proposed remedy, as It la ten
tatively discussed, is a to allow Sen
ator Lodge's coming membership in
the disarmament conference to serve
as a reason for him to abdicate either
the formal leadership, or, at least,
the working leadership of the senate.
--The suggestion is that his place
would be taken by Senator Watson
of - Indiana. In an informal way
Senator Watson has been exercising a
quasi-leadership; he Is generally
looked -upon as a second string to
Penrose, and when Penrose is away
..Watson is frequently regarded as re
flecting the Pennsylvanian's pro tem.
It is suggested also that Senator
Cummins of Iowa, who is president
,ro tem of the senate, may wish to
.shift this position, over to another.
i' . Chan-ey Are Uncertain.
. Senator. Cummins health Is notvgood
.and he has very burdensome . duties
r&s chairman of the committee on ln-
iterstate commerce. If he should de
icide to rid himself ot. some of his
'responsibilities, his successor as pres
ident pro tem of the Beriate probably
Hwould be Senator Curtis of Kansas.
l Whether this change will cure the
-situation, or whether, indeed, these
.changes will tak place is so far
matter of discussion. Watson and
-Curtis, as successor to Lodg and Cum-
,mins would not mean much, for ex
SLmple, to the o-called "farmers bloc,'
(which has been responsible for pre
eventing most of the party discipline
; so far. It is this "farmers' bloc" and
others outside of the old guard that
on such occasions, two of them con
spicuous, . have run away with the
"machine. They pushed the farmers'
iellef bill' and the soldiers bonus bill
'4o a point where the leaders were so
mbarrassed that they- called up.n the
;jiesident for personal help In side
tracking them. Under good party
discipline, with a strong party leader
ship and with the steering committee
h functioning, . these bills would have
: stopped before . they got so far as to
.;ie an embarrassment. -
This whole question of making the
republican senate majority a more
Business-like body is moving slowly.

lems of much delicacy. The one cer
tain thing Is that the republican lead--ers

"It Is best to stop the growth of an
institution where the students and
faculty can still meet in relation with
each other," was the statement of
President Richard F. " Scholz to the
Incoming freshmen class at Reed col
lege, which opened yesterday with
an approximate total registration of
280 students.
President Scholz said that to obtain
a closer relation between the faculty
and students there must be a common
intellectual bas's. The curriculum
has been revised to offer integrated
and substantial studies. Mr. Scholz
does not believe in mechanical study.
Forrest Foster, president of the stu
dent body, at the close of Mr. Scholz'
speech reviewed the principles of the
college; the student government and
the honor principle.
The exact total registration yester
day could not be ascertained. There
was, however, a total of 129 new stu
dents, including those who have been
transferred from other, colleges; eight
students who left before the close of
last year, and 138 old students. The
students represent all parts of the
United States and several foreign
nations. Among the latter are two
Chinese and one Japanese student.

PARIS. Sept 12. (Special cable
Germany's moral and, political situ
ation holds much of concern to tn
world. "" The assassination of Dr.
Mathias Erzberger throws a light
upon it from which we should profit.
He had been condemned to death
by the military party, , just as Kurt
Eisner was two years ago, ana in me
execution of a plan carefully pre
pared.
We have in Germany the strange
spectacle of men who ruined the
country by provoking and losing the
war posing as public prosecutors.
It is deliberately overlooked that ex
Emperor Wilhelm and his sympa
thizers organized the 1919 aggression.
It is deliberately overlooked tna

sie-niner of the armistice. bo in

the chosen savior of his country and
Ludendorff is made leader of the
military' Darty. To complete this
monstrous paradox acts had to fouow
words, and one act was the assassi
nation of Erzberger. The purpose of
this was to make the people believe
that the generals won the war and
the statesmen lost it. i
Therefore we f'nd acclaim for the
eeneral who in a panic demanded the
armistice at any price, and we find
murdered the minister who signed It
Nowhere save in Germany could
such perversions of the truth find
credit. Millions of Germans believe
today that Wilhelm was a great em.
peror and that Ludendorff was I
erraat conqueror. Millions of Got
mans pin their faith to those whose
criminal folly brought Germany
where, she is today. Imperialistic
militarism, to live and prosper, needs
to have this ironical legend believed
By the murder of Erzberger it was
thought to rortity woras Dy a oeea.
Thus again the world is confronted
with the disturbing question of Ger
many's moral evolution. I remember
durinie the neace conference Presl
dent Wilson's freely expressed belief
in Germany's moral conversion. He
thought the revolution which upset
the throne had remade the minds and
the hearts of the people as well. Hap
penlngs since that time hardly justify
his optimism.
The very fact that those responsi
ble for Germany's defeat are toler
ated as at present is profoundly dis
concerting.
There is much evidence that a great
part of the German people believe
that their emperor and their gen
eraJs. If they had not been hampered
by civilians, would have entered Paris
victoriously in January, 1919.
One must admit that these enor
mities are provoking certain reac

ganized Impressive demonstrations
against the Erzberger murder. The
people's party, directed! by the big
industrial unions, expressed its ab
horrence of all efforts to change the
constilttuion by vengeance. The Wirth
government adopted timid measures
to restrain the Pani-German agita
tion.
But, altogether, the military reac
tionaries have the upper hand today,
as yesterday, and in Bavaria the Von
Kahr government boldly sides with
them against the Berlin government.
This situation will bear close
watching, for it is loaded) with inter

Three alleged slackers met their
Waterloo at the session of the circuit
court this morning, when admission
to citizenship was denied them, their
petitions being dismissed with preju
dice; which means they are barred
forever from becoming citizens of the
country. The men were Olav Johannes

Emainer Tomlinson declared; each of
the applicants had claimed exemption
from the military draft during the
war on the ground of being aliens.
On his recommendation. Judge Eakin
denied the petitions, saying: "A coun
try that is not good enough to fight
for is certainly not good enough to
become a -citizen of. If you did not
care enough for this country to help
defend her when she was at war, you
are not the right material to enjoy
her citizenship when she is at peace.
"But, can't a man change his mind?'
asked one of the applicants
"Yea," replied the court, "but the
time for you to have changed your
mind was when the country needed
your help in her fight for preserva
