Washington. May 13. (WASHING
TON BUREAU OF TirE JOURNAL)
Two schools of thought with reference
to the conduct of the war are develop
in along fallrly well defined lines
In f congress and are reflected In all
the discussions now going forward
over war legislation.
The opposing ideas do not travel
along party lines, nor along any pre
viously recognised divisions. The dif
ferences may be said to be tempera
mental, as well as fundamental, and
yet at times they almost converge to
common expression.
Two Divergent Views.
One view, which most of the time
has prevailed, is that the emergency
of war is so great, and the results of
witrTBoldlng the widest powers carry
such possibilities of disaster, thnt
there should be no hesitation in over
running -the old ttme barriers which
America has erected In Jealous regard
for the liberties of the people.
The other view Is that the situation
of - America has not been x changed
by entering the war as to Justify the
eudden projection of governmental au
thority Into the multifold paths of
business life and domes tio concern
leading the people to needless resent
ment of measures that cannot be de
fended as military necessities.
Debate Beveals Differences.
These opposing views, founded in
; different states of mind, enter into the
-! debate on all measures such as the
censorship of the press; the limitation
of exports, the restriction of trans
portation, the regulation of food pro
duction and distribution, and the ex
tension of the right of search,
i There Is also involved the delega-
tion of Vast power .of discretion to
the president, which it is realized the
president personally can give only
slight attention. He must rely upon
subordinates, and these subordinates
are often far down the line, for mem
bers of the cabinet are almost as much
overworked as the president. They
have to pass' most of the work on to
their bureau chiefs.
. President Given Wlde Power.
Few presidents have enjoyed a wider
'degree of confidence in such a situs -'
tion than President Wilson. He has
deemed it necessary to the prosecution
of the war ' to ask for powers that
would have been refused as a mattei
of course a few months ago. Manv
of these thing are now granted as
matters of course, while others pro-
voKe conflict or opinion.
....Take the question of embargo. Be
fore the United States entered th war
it was favored by .many who thought-)
:Jt;woul.d hflp to keep the country out
i of war, as well as by others who be'
lleved its Influence would a&Ktet a'
particular group of belligerents.
'; Embargo tm War Measure.
.Now it comes forward as a war
measure. It was presented to con
gress in the form of what may be
called a selective embargo. The presl-
, dent desires to use it so as to help the
allies of this country, and to weaken
Its enemies. Th bill prepared by
Attorney General Gregory proposed to
give blanket authority to the presi
dent to lay an embargo as he thought
best, whereby limitations or prohib'-
y Hons might be put upon certain kind.i
of exports, or upon those' going to
certain countries.
- The senate would not take it in that
k.form. It was amended to limit the
power to suah embargoes as will do
- teat -any effort .to carry American
"goods into countries where they may

this decision was that, business would
likely be disturbed by the uncertainty
of what could be done under the wider
authority. The practical effect is like
ly to be about the came either way.
For no one seriously believed that the
president would use the authority
given him foriany other purpose than
to hit the country's enemies abroad.
Regarding rood Segnlatloa.
So also the conflict of opinion
comes on food regulation and distribu
tion. Will things go aihead at maxi
mum speed if the power of fixing a
maximum price, or of Issuing bread
tickets is vested in the government'
The necessity of using such power
may never come. Some believe the
authority should be given, ready for
use If the day arrives. Others con
tend that such measures create unrest,
uncertainty, and will discourage enter
prise and initiative, rather than stimu
late the people toward, doing their
best.
Those who are going down the line
In suppoi. of the administration's pro
gram assert that the security of the
country and complete readiness to
meet any emergency require that noth
ing be left unndone, even though the
emergency may not now be apparent
to the majority of the people.
Country Wot Tet 'Aroused.
They resent the " Imputation that
they have ''gone oraxy" over the war.
Rather, they say, the country is not
yet aroused ta-. the enormity of the
task ahead and W sacrifices that may
be necessary.
The other school of opinion holds
that the least disturbance possible
should be authorized, that there 'a
ample time for sterner measures if
the need appears, and assert that war
hysteria is responsible for extremes of
legislation. ,
These two currents of thought are
meeting at many points. They tend to
the formation of new dignments,
which in the, end the country will be
called upon to support or condemn in
the light- of events that are yet to
transpire. The administration will
have at least the advantage of being
able to say that it did not shrink
from duty, and did not minimize the
country's task.
Leaders in the house hope to secure
an adjournment of congress between
June 1 and 15. They believe the work
on war emergency measures can be
sufficiently cleared up by that time
to permit congress to adjourn unti.
the regular session in December. .

early adjotirnnment on the senate side
of. the capltoL There are Indications
that Republican senate leaders are go
ing to sprinkle the track with enough
obstructions to postpone the adjourn
ment date indefinitely.
For one thing, they are going to de
bate the revenue bill at great length.
They are going to prolong the debate
on the so-called .food bill, and on sev
eral other measures In the adminis
tration program. But beyond all thai
they nave In reserve the plan for a
Joint congressional committee "on the
conduct of the war."
Congress Would Kave Voice.
This idea originates In the conten
tion that congress should establish an
agency to keep In close touch with a'.I
that is done as the war proceeds, par
ticularly in regard to the purposes
for which money appropriated Is ex
pended. It also opens up the iuestlon
a to how far such a committee should
bye let In on executive secrets.
Democratic leaders are inclined to
frown upon .such a proposal as ' use
less, and in some measure a' reflec
tion upon President Wilson and his
advisers. Their view is that congress
must, in such times, entrust large
powers to the administration, and that
no committee of congress, however
well lntentioned, could add anything to
the strength of the nation la time ot
war.
Senator Weeks who offered the
Joint committee plan in the senate, ha
broadly Intimated that unless it is
accepted steps will be taken to see
that congress does not adjourn very
soon. Others have given out like sug
gestions. This question holds greater
promise of partisan division and
wrangling than anything else in sight.

attempt to muddle and confuse voters
In' the rival proposed charter amend
ments of Shepherd and Amldon. in the
persisted adoption of the word "abol
ish" in -connection with the commis
sion form of city government, Presid
lnr. Judge Kavanaugh Saturday left
th dtv council an onnort unitv to cor.
rect its 'former action and give a new
title to the Am id on "snort charter.'
. The -alternative, because of a time
limit in publication of the proposed
charter amendment, is that the Ami
don amendment will be left off the
ballot on election day.
The -rival charter forces went Into
court on the proceedings brought by
George S. Shepherd against the mu
nicipality. Its mayor and commission
ers y , review the proceedings wnich
gave to the Amldon charter a ballot
.title similar in wording to the charter
proposed . by Shepherd. Both titles,
under the' action of the council, would
have appeared on the ballot as a "charter-
amendment abolishing commission
forroof government.'
The court, plainly speaking the
opinion that these titles had all the
semblance of a deliberate attempt to
mislead the voters In their selective
vote, delayed decision on a motion to
' quash the writ of review until Monday.
At the same time permission was
given for the advertisement of the bal
lot title on Monday, so as to bring the
publication within the prescribed pe
riod of 20 days before election. It was
also plainly understood that the de
layed decision was primarily for the
purpose of giving the city council the
opportunity of giving to the Amldon
charter amendment a revised ballot
title.
At the conclusion of yesterday's pro
ceedings It appeared to be pretty well
understood that the Amldon people
will substitute the word "abrogate"
for - abolish In referring to proposed
action towards commission form of
government, and this change will likely
satisfy Shepherd charterers. To ac
complish this it will be necessary for
the city council to pass a new ordi
nance readjusting the time of publica
tion for proposed charter amendments.
If this Is not done it Is likelyvthat the
Amldon charter amendment will go
bezore the voters in June.

PEOPLE ARE TOO BUSY
GARDENING ! TO TAKE
PART IN HOE PARADE
Mass. Meeting in Lincoln
High, However, Is Attend
ed by Several Hundred.
Portland people were so busy mak
ir.g garden in their back yards Satur
day evening that only a few took their
agricultural implements dawn town to
march in the "hoe parade." The effect
of this was the calling off of the
parade at the last moment.
The Coast Artillery band was at
Tenth and Salmon streets, the start
ing point, and a group of Honor Guard
Girls was ready to fall In Una Some
men and women with hoes and rakes
were waiting, too, but hardly enough
to warrant the parade, ln the opinion
of Mrs. Helen I. Tomlinson, mistress
of ceremonies.
The mass meeting at Lincoln high,
however, was held according to sched
ule and several hundred persons
listened attentively to an Interesting
program of speeches ln which they
were advised to awaken to the serious
ness of the situation.
In his talk, William D. Wheelwright
said the Pacific coast did not appre
ciate that the nation was a participant
in the mightiest struggle the world
has ever known. Mr. Wheelwright re
viewed the condition of the allies with
pessimism.
Mrs. Clara H. Waldo, regent of Ore
gon Agricultural college, spoke of the
necessity of women participating in
the work and of the necessity for rigid
economy. She told of the work being
done by the agricultural school to meet
the emergency.
Anne Shannon Monroe, who presided
at the meeting, gave a short opening
address, advising Portland people to
participate ln the food drive, and
Henry B. Hasard, naturalisation exam
iner, told of the work being done by
the' government at this time in scruti
nising its alien residents for signs of
disloyalty.
Otto Wedemeyer and Mrs. Thomas
Carrick Burke gave a short musical
program at the opening of the meeting.
The gathering was an enthusiastic
one. Many who had planned to march
ln the parade, brought their agricul
tural arms with them to the audito
rium and the big room bristled with
the forest of spades, hoes and fork,
tines, ,
