the Democrats of the house and himself were as much opposed to
"gag rules" as in 1910, and no majority of the rules committee had
the right to bring in an important bill, involving more than a billion
dollars in taxes, without giving the house a chance to amend it if
that body thinks best.

THE HOME PAPER
Sir : Inspired doubtless by your timely essay showing how
white paper is wasted, a friend observed today at lunch (call it
lunch instead of luncheon to observe space) that the restaurateurs
might help by denuding lamb chops of those pretty but unessential
little frilled pantalets.-John Goldstrom in JNew York bun.

THE NEW TOPIC
It's like a smiling friendly face,
It's like a voice you long have known,
You see it in some distant place
And rush to claim it for your own.
The paper from your old home town
Has bridged the long and weary miles
And with it you can settle down
Among familiar tears and smiles.
It speaks for every friend you know;
It tells of scenes you yearn to see;
It brings back joys of long ago
And tells of joys that are to be.
And as you run its columns o'er
Your yesterdays come trooping back;
You fancy you're at home once more,
And golden seem the letters black,
Its speech is one you understand,
It tells of griefs that you can share,
It brings you, in that foreign land,
Glad messages to banish care.
There, among scenes and faces strange,
The old home paper seems to be
The faithful friend that doesn't change,
A friend that you are glad to see.
1 know not just what heaven is like.
Nor just what joys beyond life's tide
Await for me, when death shall strike
And I shall reach the other side.
But thfs I know when I have gone
To dwell in realms divinely fafr,
My soul will yearn to look upon
The old-home paper over there.

KNOCKING THE ELEGANCE OUT OP IT
An enterprising Gotham florist invented a catchy advertising
line which read: "Say it with flowers." It had its appeal to the
young beaux of the town and he did a thriving business. Other
florists took it up and it was seen in almost every florist shop in
town. The other day down in Fulton street market a romantic fish
dealer had this sign up over his stall: "Say it with shad.'' New
York paper.

That the president under his oath of office to observe and sup
port the constitution of the United States will veto the Knox peace
resolution when it reaches the White House, was forecasted in the
senate when Senator Hitchcock, ranking Democrat of the foreign
relations committee, asserted that subterfuge propositions offered
by the Republican majority in lieu of the peace treaty were "all
doomed to defeat."
It is possible that the two houses will agree-on a composite
"peace resolution" fashioned along the lines of the measures offered
by Senator Knox and Representative Porter, and it will be ap
proved by partisan majorities in both houses after agreement in
conference committee. It will be impossible, however, for the reso
lution to be passed over the veto of the president.
In vetoing the peace resolution, the president probably ftould
find no better reason than that advanced more than a year ago by
the Republican fioor leader of ihf senate. Senator Lodge. In a
signed article in the Forum, Senator Lodge wrote that it would be
dishonorable for the United States to attempt to make a separate
' peace with Germany. It would not be playing fair, he said, with
the allies of this government and would amount to national dishonor.
At that time, however, a separate peace resolution was not con
templated, and Senator Lodge was candidly discussing peace mak
ing by orderly processes.
Senator Hitchcock reminded the senate that the Republican
majority had made five attempts to frame a peace resolution to take
the place of a constitutional .peace treaty. The first, he said, was a
declaration of peace, but Senator Knox discovered that congress did
not have the power to declare peace, that proposal having been de
bated and rejected in the constitutional convention. Finally, lie
.said, the resolution as now presented proposed to declare the war at
an end. Senator Hitchcock asked what difference there was be
tween the two propositions.
"Congress lias no power to declare peace," said Senator Hitch
cock, "so now we have raised the interesting distinction between de
claring peace and declaring war at an end. What is the difference?"!
Senator Hitchcock recalled that in December, 1018, Senator
Lodge and other Republican' senators were condemning all sugges
tions that the United States make a separate peace with Germany.
He quoted Senator Lodge's views in the Forum article, which said
in part:
"We "can not, in the first place, make peace except in company
with our allies. It would brand us with everlasting dishonor and
bring ruin to us also if we undertook to make a separate peace."
"Do the supporters of this pending Knox resolution," asked
Senator Hitchcock, "want to brand us with dishonor and bring ruin
upon us? In one provision of this resolution it is stated that the
United States does not waive any of its rights under the treaty it
lias rejected. Could anything be more ridiculous than to assume
and indicate that we have any rights to waive after we have refused
to ratify the treaty which grants them?
"The treaty itself provides that 'the treaty will enter into force
for each power at the date of the deposit of ratification.' Yet the
pending resolution gravely provides that we waive no rights under
it as though we got some rights by refusing to ratify the treaty.
"Altogether the five desperate attempts to defy the constitution
and substitute a resolution for a treaty make a fine display of legis
lative experimentation."

Recalling the rules fight in 1910, which curbed the power of the
speaker and the then Republican committee on rules, former Speak
er Champ Clark has warned the G. O. P. majority of the house that
unless they change their ways, they will ride to another fall.
Representative Clark spoke in connection with reports that the
rules committee would bring in a "gag" rule to put through the
soldier bonus legislation without giving the membership of the house
an opportunity to amend the bill in any way. The former speaker
declared he was emphatically in favor of the bonus, but was as
strongly opposed as ever to special rules that shut off debate and
opportunity of amendment.
Sir. Clark said the Republicans had been considering two plans,
one for bringing the bill in under suspension of the rules, which
"meant no opportunity to amend and no motion to recommit; the
other under a special rule which also would limit debate and forbid
amendment. The former speaker said he and the majority of his
Democratic colleagues were in favor of soldier bonus, or adjusted
compensation, legislation, on the theory that nothing was too good
for the men who won the war against Germany. However, he said,'
