It.is a meeting of the Titans, where the champion long disitv. enally dionified Senate assumes all the quiet and decorum of a monkey house. _ Last week. the filibuster of the hour centered on _ the anti-lynching bill. But according to news reports, Senater Ham Lewis debated on Chicago juridnrudence: Senator Rohert Reynolds discussed Europe, the Orient, the British ] South America, Africa and the Malay states. Senator Josiah sles, ed it to the floor; Senator Elmer Thomas picked up the book and placed it on his desk; Senator Ed Smith swept it back to the floor and jumped on it with both feet. 5 Amusing? Perhaps. But expensive. While ovr senators slipped the belt. off the wheel that turns the legislative mill, ey did not, of course, cut themselves from payroll or exnse accounts. We pay the ball for this exposition of _hisonics and slap-stick. In industry, if workmen deliberately hinder or impede production, it is sabotage. In Congress a filibuster . . . is statesmanship.

Ambassador, . now Hankow, informs the Red ;Cross that over 20,000,000 people jare affected in the Shanghai, Hangchow and Nanking areas alone. He . also says: . “The hostilities are driving huge numbers of Chinese from their homes, in cities and villages and on the Fleeing danger, very many of tnese people become refushelter, aid. in}3on T.

Admiral Cary T. Grayson, national Red-Cross chairman, immediately dispatched $22,000 to relieve the desperate situation as all local Red Cross ehapters throughoyt the United States were called upon to. receive contributions to make up at least a million dollars. Consular authorities report that in a half million civilian women and children are appealing for relief and must ‘be fed, clothed and housed against the severe cold. : Thousands of homeless beings are forced to huddle under ting shelters, lacking protection from snow and rain. Alleys and doorways in scores of towns and villages are crowded with bewildered people, bordering on’ starvation. The Red Cross reports one of the greatest immediate needs is for Gotton padded garments and = quilts. These can be produced at small ‘cost in China. It is pointed out that $1.25 will provide food, shelter and medical ‘care for one person an entire month. President Roosevelt in his appeal to the public urges a prompt and generous response. spnring.
