CHAMP CLARK'S VIEWS.
Champ Clark while her* Sunday expressed the opinion that Congress will remain in session until early in November, adjourriing probably only in time to let faithful members get back to their districts in season to vote. The fourth Liberty Loan campaign •will occupy three weeks be'ginning on
September 28, and during that period party politics will of necessity be in occultation. Election1 day falls ©n Novertiber 5, so that we shall have" a congress campaign of only two weeks and this is likely to restrict the state and local campaigns to the same period.
Some congressmen seeking re-elec-tion may fear their absence from their districts will work against them with the voters. Their opponents, with no duties to atteftd to in Washington, will be able to get ground the districts and meet the electors. But the danger In this to an honest, efficient and loyal senator or representative is small. The man who can say that be must refrain from urging his appeal on the electors because his oath of omce requires him to be in the house or the senate will advance an argument in his own behalf that should strongly influence all Jatriotic men and women. Indeed, the member of congress who does not shirk Wis present duty should be in a better position politically than the member ivho quits the capitOl to labor for his

MAKING OF AUTOMOBILES.
Washington dispatches to the Tribune indicate that a second thought has occurred in connection with the manufacture of pleasure automobiles. A few days ago it was rumored that their manufacture would be1 stopped and these plants put on one hundred per cent war work. «'ow,, it is said, that twenty-five per cent, or even higher, production will be allowed.
It doubtless has been discovered that the limitations of 'pleasure cars'* are hard to define as applied to automobiles. How many cars can you think of that are exclusively pleasure cars? But if you were asked to name the practical purposes to which! "pleasure" cars are put the list would be so long as to be interminable.
This Is the situation which Washington probably has encountered. Too, such drastic plan as the total suspension- of t)*fe manufacture of "pleasure" cars would cause an economic and industrial disturbance that would outweigh any advantage gained in prospering the war work. The Tribune ventures the guess that there will be no such suspension ip this tremendously important industry.
STILL ON GUARD.
Two important changes in newspaper ownership have occurred lately. One was the change in ownership of The New York Evening Post, which was attended with no change in management or policy, and the other was the sale of the Louisville CourierJournal, which has resulted in the retirement of Col. Henry Watterson.
As to the Post, though the paper is a powerful influence In American! affairs, it is doubtful if the average run of Americans were interested in Its transfer. Those who know the paper think of it as an institution that goes on like a church or a great corporation, without much change when men change, but the ca^e of the CourierJournal is different.
To thousands of Americans the Louisville Courier-Journal means Henry Watterson, and nothing else. Fifty years of labor as the editor of that paper had not staled him or sapped his vigor. No editorial writer could do better than he did when he sounded his famous battle cry, **To hell with the Hapsburga and Hohenzollerns."
If it we*1® wholly time that"the sale of the Courier-Journal meant his retirement, there Would be mourning throughout the country. Col. Watterson is to retire from the active editorial management of the paper, but will continue to contribute to its columns as the spirit moves. That means, we take it, that the lustiest voice in American journalism is not to be stilled, and everyone will be glad.
PLACING THE CREDIT.
Americans today are spared the disagreeable and unaccustomed duty of bragging' Other nations are doing it for them. Several months ago Lloyd George said, as respects the military situation on the western front, that it came down to a race between Hindenburg and Wilson. Well, the universal testimony is that Wilson has now won. Both French and British military authorities agree that the arrival of more than a million American soldiers in France has redressed the balance of numbers, and assured to Gen. Foch ample reserves. To this the** enemy bears reluctant witness. For long the officially inspired Germaij account was (1) that American troops' would not be sent to France (2) that if they did set sail th6y would b%e sunk on the way by German U-boats (3) that if any American soldiers did succeed in get ting through, they would be of such inferior material, so poorly trained, that they would amount to nothing in a military sense. Those illusions, or pretenses, are now all dispelled. Even before the recent fierce fighting which the Americans more than held their own with the best German troops, intelligence officers of the German army had reported that the American units were not to be despised. Since then the test e£ actual battle has spoken for itself. And on the larger aspects of America's share in the war. more than one German newspaper has confessed that, if numbers are to win the war, the United States Is contributing to the allies the necessary margin of man-power.

must keep our sense of proportion right. Some of the military correspondents in France of our newspapers gave the impression unwittingly, that the recent great victory was won mainly by the American army, the' French, as it were, merely going along with it. This is not, of course, the view of our general staff or of the Washington administration, nor is it the view of our people. They know very well what is happening.

GERMANY LOOKS AHEAD.
Sees Serious Economic Troubles Aft* er the War. AMSTERDAM, Aug. 1?.—The Imperial League for Combatting Social Democracy has issued a manifesto foreshadowing serious wage troubles in Germany after the war. dissolution of the reichstag and the collapse of the middle classes. It w-arns against a rising of the proletariat, and asks for funds to strengthen "the defensive war against social democratic aggression."
The Socialist Vorwaerts of Berlip, declares the appeal, "opportunely reminds us that after the war the second decisive battle for Germany's future begins." It urgently exhorts all workers to prepare to "fight mammonism. so that at the end of the war we are not overpowered by the unendurable domination of capitalism.-'
The paper points out that the signatories to the manifesto are rich land owners and »industrial magnates.

Persistently the sters warn of danger to the government through machinations of women as well as men in positions of trust.
Soldiers should safeguard their nerves while the configuration has full government, astrologers declare, as they are not likely to be at their best in event of supreme dangers.
Women are not well directed to3ay. Whether in business or love affairs they should doubt their judgment. It is a most threatening time for any initiative whether in work or romance.
Astrologers continue to warn girls against the danger of war service that is not efficient. The ne»d of sacrifice and supreme effort is urged. Comparisons between American girls and
