THIS is about what congress i3 likely to do: It will stall the manpower leg islation along until it is possible to get a more realistic look at what is happening In Germany, now that the Rhine has been ac tually crossed under what seems to be extremely favorable cir cumstances. If the war in Europe is as near the petering out point as reading of the dispatches of the. past few days suggests may be possible, there will be no draft-labor legislation. But if it becomes, apparent say in two or three weeks or maybe a month that the Ger mans ; have a lot, of resisting power left and that the war is likely to .drag on into the sum mer or even early fall, then a draft-labor law. with teeth in it will be passed and passed pretty quickly and with a minimum of oratory and fireworks.
