It went the limit on price-ceilings, which the food "profiteers" want hoisted—365 to 12, —but in the matter of rations, getting the food to the people at any old price, it wasn't so particular. However, don't blame the Republicans too hard. No 190 Republicans could make such a showing. It took 175 of the 243 Democrats in the house, along with them, to pull the boner. It is for the most part a good bill but most of» the hampering seems done to price-fixing rather than aiding food distribution. Rationing is not so disturbed. The new secretary of agriculture is to. have a sort of veto power over both, but the power of appeal to the courts appears to apply to price- ceilings alone. An amendment, conforming to the senate bill, guaranteeing a profit to food producers and processors, was whittled down to favor only meat producers and processors—the farmer and the packer. The reason that only 377 votes were cast for and against the measure is that-the congressmen weren't all there; Grant, Johnson and Wilson, of Indiana, for instance.

Ratification of the pact by the participating nations is all that remains to set the ball rolling. That essential in the United States seems likely of consummation. Should the Republicans, ably represented at the conference, and voting for the pact, keep faith and follow the lead of their delegates, they will have washed their hands somewhat of the blood on them in consequence of the 1921 perfidy.

Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan headed the Republican delegation at San Fran- lisco; Senator Tom Connolly headed the Democrats _- but they have worked together quite without friction, and Vandenberg and his senatorial colleague will return to Washington determined upon Republican approval for their work. Of course, there is little or no question as to how the Democrats will act. If the Democrats all say ''yes" it will only require nine Republicans to ratify the compact, and it is quite certain that it will only require sixteen at the most. There are a few Democratic senators of the Burton "£raut" Wheeler, stripe, though Missouri eliminated Bennet "Chump" Clark last fall — and the south has a few hillbillies down there of similar mould. Still you can count better than nine Republican* on your fingers and toes; possibly a necessary sixteen and you don't (On Page Three)
