"The Chicago Tribune" declares the Eastland horror to be "the greatest manmade disaster in the history of the Country." If the "Tribune" will now give the man's name, his case will be attended to. -The fact that the Government must bring suit to rftovcr the greater part of the money which it advanced last year to bring back stranded refugees from Kurop.e will be taken by many to be prophetic of what will happen if the Government goes into the loan business as a general proposition. For example, the rural credit legislation, which all admit to be desirable, may be wrecked bv making it a Government agency instead of a private enterprise with special powers. The first of these .schemes is socialistic, the second is truly economic. How people regard the Government as a creditor is now being shown by the European refugees. How they regard a hank as a creditor is proven "every day by the reports of the hanking instituChairinan Joseph. E. Davies, of the Federal Trade Commission,, announces that Secretary Redfield, of tho Department of Commerce, has placed at the disposal of his commission the commercial - attaches in foreign countries, it is about time they were put to work. Since the» outbreak of the European war, a number of these "deserving Democrats" have been touring Europe at Uncle Sam's expense, supposedly on the trail of that elusive bit of information, the | cost of production, which the President once assured us "does not exist as a scientific, demonstratablc datum facL~~As everyone knows, reports predicated, on s present conditions oPtrade in Europe are utterly valueless. If, during the remaining year that these junketers cumber the Federal payroll they can give Mr. Davies any assistance which will tend to make the Trade Commission a useful, rather than a ponderously ornamental, adjunct r to the administration, they will be devoutly thanked by a despairing Democracy, but that they can is doubtful.

k publican policies controlling the des- 1 - linies of this country. - - • I Suggesting a bond issue as the easiest ' way to make provision for National de- ' fense — that National defense, by the 1 way, which Mr Wilson, only eight ' months ago, told Congress had not been ' neglected— the "Houston Post" says: ' "We obtained the money for the Panama ' Canal by selling bonds. Why can wc ' not obtain money for defensive workjs in ' = the saqie way!" We can obtain money 1 for defensive works by selling bonds, without doubt. But that is not 'the 1 same way' that we obtained money for the Panama Canal. It is true that when 0* canal bill was passed, it provided for the Usue of bonds — $375,000,000 of bonds, in fact. But the Republican administration which built the canal never found it necessary to issue all these bonds. Under the wise fiscal provisions whidf are characteristic of Bepubliean rule, it was found possible to pay nearly all the cost of the canal from current revenues. The figures are impressive and illuminating. We have spent more than $383,000,000 on the canal, and nearly $350,000,000 of this is reimbursable to the treasury. In other words, under Republican, practice, $359,000,000 )r were available from treasury receipts for the building of the Panama Canal. Under Democratic practice, a demand for a natural program for National' defense _ means a bond issue.
