RESULTS Or CRITICISM
AS a result of the repeated demands of Republicans for a change
in the management of the bureau of war risk insurance, the
professional "efficiency expert," under whose supervision the at'
loirs of the bureau went from bad to worse, has been superseded by
mi army oiiieer who has promised to send allotment ehecks to sol
tilers ' dependents with as little delay as possible. Colonel Lindsley,
the new chief, has told the senate military committee that he will
hold himself personally responsible for greater speed in getting out
the money in the future.
reef ui report iroiu .-secretary ot the Treasury Uluss gives
:.ome idea ot the present status of affairs at the war risk office.
Ot the 2,,(KUIU0 ehecks for dependents allotments and allowances
deducted from soldiers' pay for November and December, only
930,000 have been mailed thus far. In order to catch up with the
work cheeks for the two months are being written simultaneously
in many cases, and Mr. Glass predicts that before the end of Jan
nary the work will be uu to date.
If the promised improvement materializes it may be claimed
eiy properiy ov tne iiepuiiiieans that it is due to their persistence
m airing the conditions at the bureau, and citing some of the numy
glaring instances of inefficiency that have characterized the con
duct of that office. In practically every case their criticisms have
ben answered by the Democrats by statements of the immense
amount of work thrown upon the bureau soon after its creation,
and the impossibility of attending to it all without some delay.
The recent change in executives is an admission of failure in the
past and of the truth of the repeated assertions of the Republicans.
CONVERT TO HOME PRODUCTION
SMALL wonder Australia is looking with so much favor on the
policy of protection to her industries. The Weekly Bulletin of
tie Canadian department of trade and commerce presents a table
recently submitted to the Australian parliament showing certuin
increases in Australian imports from Japan of dutiable articles for
the jreare 1913 and 1917. In the former "year their aggregate value
was $3,088,115, compared with $14,083,510 for the latter. Textiles,
filts and furs increased from $2,1 (00,1)00 to over $7,000,0(10, earthen
ware, china, etc., from $100,000 to $1,281,000, wood manufactures
from $168,000 to $885,000, jewelry from $83,000 to nearly $600,000.
liaper and stationary from $44,000 to $250,000, etc. That' is enough
to make the Kangaroo state sit up and wag its ears and discuss
the protective policy. And that is what they are doing in Australia,
led by the redoubtable Minister Hughes.
TIMES HAVE CHANGED
1 is amusing to read the plea of Messrs. McAdoo and Oregon
given as a reason for sennrsitiriff t)nm,..liB V...
service pecuniary responsibilities. For several years these thrift
gentlemen have ilden horseback over the peonle. and now thi
they see the storm approaching they find it discreet suddenly to
oismount ami take to the storm eeliur. Bryan eked out his living

moeracy" and patched pants bourgeoisie when they entered th

is the public office heing a public trust was concerned,- well
seems they may make of office "stepping stones of their de
selves to higher things," lucratively speaking.
SHIELDING THE PACKERS

W?nt methods of army demobilization and with the federation of
niDor predicting bread lines by May 1. congress is being flooded
ioi appeals lor action to reduce the cost of living sent skyward by
me war.
There is a storm brewing over the policy of the administration
in continuing to maintain a high minimum price of foodstuffs under
ar legislation designed to stimulate production which, with
war ended, is now less imperative and this agitation is destined to
crop out when the administration sends to congress the bill
appropriate $2,250,(100,000 for stabilizes the nrice of wh-.it
Representative Gould of New York has introduced a resolution
L t !
in me nouse calling upon the iood administration to state
economic reasons which warrant the continuing of agreements
miien tx the price ot food products and explain the reason fo
continuing a practice which evidently is directly responsible fo
the high cost of living to the consumer, together with detailed in
formation as to the number and scope of all such existing agree
ments."
The administration is already under fire in eonneetimi with (.
continued maintenance of a high price for hogs. The packers and
lepresemauves er tne hog raisers are to meet in Washington Janu
ary 28 to agree with the food administration on the prices to b
paid by the packers for hogs in February.
The attorney deueral has been
Chicago Board of Trade and the New York Produce Exchange to
taice steps in ena tne tixmg or prices for hogs which at 17 '-2
nts a pound are pronounced 50 per cent higher than normally
would exist, but the attorney general has replied that he can do
nothing so long as this control of prices is exercised by the food
administration under war legislation still in effect.
Food Administrator IToover has been charged with shielding
the packers from possible loss by maintaining high pork prices and
much of the opposition to President "Wilson's $100,000,000 appropri
ation for food for Fnrope arises from the reports that the packers

WASHINGTON, Jan J3.-Dlstln
guisnea service medals may never
adorn their blouses, but 100 Ameri
can bluejackets recently faced possi
ble death as unflinchingly as any of
the destroyer heroes who battled U-
'boats. These ..ien comprise the "flu
squad" of the navy. Under the su
pervision f naval surgeons they
have time and again exposed them
selves to th ceadly germs. Thev
have inhs'ed "flu" microbes. Thev
bave had the little "flu buaV in.
Joated into their veins. Thev hav
Uiken them in the cause of the "fin'
epidemic in every known form.
Ntvy physicians wanted to estah
Hsh the nature of the "flu" germ and
something of the way in which the

volunteers who would exipose them

fever squad" did in solving the mys
tery of yellow fever.
But to the astonishment of the
physicians of the navy and of Hip
.iitbllc health service, not a man so
opposed or inoculated developed any
Vymptoms of the "flu." Medical
icienee is bafrled.
The "flu mystery" is the title of
he public health service's record of
he experiments. They were carried !
on In Boston and San Francisco.

Ten volunteers visited the Chelse,, I
