One of the charges made by Senator Chamberlain against the war department was that it had "ceased' to function." Whether that charge was true or not the war department sent two million well equipped, well fed, 'well trained men to France when ZZ everybody said it could not be done. Furthermore those men ZZ were, well ' directed and all " were imbued with a beautiful desire to annihilate the Ger- ZZ m&n army. The effective steps they took along that line is now ZZ ft matter of history. Good or no good our war de I" partment and the army it cre - ; ated and assembled answered Zl all purposes. There has been ZZ no complaint from the enemy that our men or our organiza ZZ lion lacked in any respects. During the war mistakes Zl were made by the war depart "ment as well as by other branches of the government. "jThey were inevitable. No tilnnhf fnrtbpr mistakes will be ! ..made. There is ample evi jdence, however, that in a gen- cral way the work of our gov $2 eminent, war department in- ( luded, has been and is now J remarkably efficient. Why not judge by the result as a . whole rather than Dy iiaws X'tliat may be found. Senator Chamberlain was 1 1 unfair a year ago; he is unfair now.

But jt is not true. British govera- ment bonds actually Sold lower after Waterloo than before the battle was fought and won by H - 1 1 ." l T..4. 1 .. I 4.1 did rise in price very much. and those who bought and jheld, from the war period on, : made big profits. Now our Liberty bonds, in- , ing in price since the signing of the armistice, have also been ! falling. But they have been . falling, not because they are ! worth less, but because there !are more of them than people iwant to rarrv at the mompnt. That this is so is indisputably proved by the fact that the last and biggest issue is selling quite a little lower than the first and smallest issue bearing the same rate of interest; al though the last issue is regard ed as the better bond because its principle is due for payment before that of the first issue comes due. It is pretty good financial opinion that Liberty bonds are selling at bargain prices with a yield almost as large as some of the corporation bonds. This means, in effect, that the first morteasre on a country is sell- ling to yield a larger interest rate Chan the second mortgage issues. That is an anomaly that will without any question be corrected in time by the ad vancing of the Liberty bonds to higher prices. Boston Post. It would be difficult to con ceive of anything finer or more practical than our community kitchen for relieving the hard ships caused by the influenza epidemic. People who are ill need proper food. But even families of means find it hard to obtain such food when they can secure no household help and several members of the family are down. With people in poor circumstances the thing becomes a tragedy. Those re sponsible for the community kitchen have rendered a ser vice of extreme value. . Senator Chamberlain says there is no definite plan for demobilization of the army. But would the chairman of the senate military -committee pro ceed with speedy demobiliza tion of the army before peace is signed, before we know what policing we may have to do in Germany and before we have solved the question as to our duty in Russia? Secretary Daniels is right. If competitive navy building is to be the order for the7 future let Uncle Sam get busy. Clemenceau is justified in hating Germany but he will not be wise in following the Bismarck policy as to peace de mands.

George Dunsford, superintendent of the Capi tol building, under the direction of Secretary of State Olcott, has taken time by the forelock and has given the senate chamber and the hall of rep resentatives a thorough cleaning from floor to ceiling, while committee rooms are also being put in readiness. During the time the legislature is not using them, the committee rooms are occupied by branches of other de partments of the state government. The state highway commission and the industrial accident commission have been using several of them, but they are now moved out. The high way commission found offices down town, while the accident commission has crowded all its employes into the limited spaco within its main offices. ioing back t work after the Christmas vacation is almost as much fun as having xeven teeth extracted- AIMJIT Il.TIIINi.
