The first thing the Republican majority in Congress knows the people will begin to demand an investigatlon of the investigators who are spending time and money to discover why wars are expensive, while at the same moment one set of Republicans in the Senate are opposing the League of Nations and inviting further conflicts. Perhaps the numerous Congressional “investigations” into the conduct of the war are after all only designed to satisfy Republican curiosity as to how the Democratic administration could achieve so magnificent a success in spite of the G. O. P.’s persistent opposition. "Jim” Mann won’t enlarge the "steering committee” of the House of Representatives, he announces. The Republican majority in that branch of Congress has found the present number and personnel of the "steering cammitee” able to furnish more trouble than the leaders could settle. By the way, the "luxury tax” is one factor in the high cost of living, and the President has repeatedly urged its abolition. The Republican filibuster prevented its repeal last March and the Republican majority in Congress continues it in force. \
(Republicans have always regarded high prices as great blessings. From this viewpoint the present excessive cost of living would appear to be a notable benediction. Is that why the Republican ma- ( jorlty hesitates to move against the profiteers? Senator Penrose Is again in print with a promise of “economy” in govermental expenditures. If the country cowld only cash Republican promises the national debt would be paid every Saturday night. /Has it been noticed that the Republican “investigations” begin with liberal appropriations which go in part to pay salaries to “experts,” clerks and other employes who are chosen by reason of their partisan pull? •
There is something harder to establish than a League of Nations — that is a concert among its Senatorial opponents.
