If that billion dollars of tribute money were piled up on one side of a road to be paid one dollar at a time on the other side of the road, and if one man began the job, carrying a dollar across the road every minute day and night, the payment would require twenty-seven generations of men, each man living to the age of 70, which means that if the work had begun twenty-two years after the birth of Christ, it would have been completed just last year.

The present Scn ato is so evenly divided that the outcome of the Brookhart-Steck con test for one of the Iowa seats has a lot more importance than such a fight ordinarily has, and they al ways are pretty important. Originally Brookhart was suppos ed to have won hy a small majority. The Senate committee's recount, recently finished, wiped out this margin and more too, giving Steck a bigger advantage than Brookhart ivaB thought to have had. However, tills !.- on the basis of uncontested ballots. There are enough contested ones either to in crease Steck's lead or to throw victory Brookhart's way again, de pending on how they're counted. ' It will be up to the Senate, when Congress reconvenes, to decide about the contested votes. What it does decide will determine whether Smith W. Brookhart or Daniel F. Stock shall represent Iowa in the upper House for the next six years. A few commentators have been no unsophisticated as to suggest that it's a matter for the "intent" of the Iowans' ballots, not the Senate, to settle. it5j!i Ah. but the controversy has passed ; out of the Iowans' hands now and . Into the Senate's. Little enough i the Iowans will have to Bay about it hereafter. The Senate, then, will chose be tween Brookhart and Sleek. Nor mally the Republicans would vote for Ihe Republican candidate and the Democrats for the Democrat, hut (his contest is peculiar. Nominally u Republican, Brook hart was o iiniannagenble.in.Jliuj last Congress that the regular Rr- nubllcaua would prefer the Demo- ! tnree ranama canais, wouia pay trie saiane3 or an tne teachers and school superintendents in the United States for a year and a half, or would keep the postal service tioine'for nearly two years.
