r"IEK latest achievement of Senator Pittman in having the Dunn
C I j highway hill divorced from the postoffic appropriation bill
which carries the appropriation for federal road aid, would have been
considered surprising had tTnother senator done the same thing, but
Nevada has come to expect the big things from Pitt man, and so far
he has not failed.
In the face of the Republican majority in the upper house and the
.uipport given by eastern senators to the Dunn bill, which would have
limited the amount of federal funds to be spent on any government
aid road in a year, Pittman had the joint Dunn-postoffiee bill or
dered referred back to a senate conference committee which reported
it with the understanding that the senate would insist upon a high
way appropriation without the attachment of the Dunn bill or any
other limitations.
Only as late as last Saturday, Senator Oddie was pictured as
"carefully laying his plans to meet the opposition at every point."
Yet, when action is required, it is Pittman who is found on the floor
of the senate fighting .successfully to save Neva' da and the West
from the lo.ss of hundreds of thousands of dollars of federal aid for
road building programs.
Congressman Arentz was not strong enough in the house to pre
vent the passage of the Dunn bill originally, and from a distance it
appears that the efforts of Arentz and Oddie consisted in assuring
the voters of the state that they were closely watching the bill.
Pittman may chalk tip another victory for himself and for the
state he represents. His action Saturday demonstrates that he is
looking out for the welfare of the state as well as for the country,
as he did when he insisted upon his amendment to the four-power
treaty.
One wonders if he'is not the best congressional representative Xe

U. S. Veterans' Bureau
The regular army has lately developed
a great interest in ex -service men.
There are employed today in the United
States veterans' bureau four lieutenant-

two lieutenant-commanders of the navy
and four retired officers of the army.
Taking into considerat on the altove

"T UK announcement yesterday of Senator Lodge that congress will

branches of the government on March 4, 1921, they have taken more
than n year to frame a tarilT bill. It is, therefore, amusing to hear
Republican leaders charge that their Democratic colleagues are delay
ing consideration of the pending biil, after only a few weeks' debate.
Tnder the rules of the senate, numerous other matters have been
discussed siiH-e the tariff bill was taken up. When Senator Mc('um-
ber complain d that the time of the senate ought not to be wasted in
discussing matters winch have no bearing on the question at issue,
Senator Underwood, the Democratic leader of the senate, agreed with
him, but administered this friendly and neat rebuke:
"I hope that extraneous matter will not come before the senate
in the future, but most of the extraneous matter which comcp before
it has originated on the other side of the chamber. I am glad to help
the senator from North Dakota to keep the tariff bill before the senate
without interrupion until it is disposed of, but he must clean his own
.side of the carpet and we will try to help him on this Ride."

HK press of the state sees in the order of the interstate com"-
merce commission for a reduction of approximately ten per"
tent in freight rates, effective July 1, an incentive for stimulating
business.
With general improvement in business e.onditions throughout the
country the railroads should not suffer as a result of the reduction;
and it is not improbable that the carriers will more than offset the
reduction by increased volume of business. This ten per cent re
duction may lead to further reductions, and voluntarily ho on the
part of the: roads, because once the wheels of progress arc in full
swing, prosperity will have gained an impetus that will cause it to
extend over a long period, and with an intensity that has not exsted
for many years.
The Nevada public service commission has been doing its share
in bombarding the interstate commission wth data to show that the
big-line rates in this state are excessively high and the order recently
issued vindicates the local body in refusing some time ago to raise
intrastate rates to conform to interstate rates.
