At times it seemed tiresome, but it was -right and proper and after all much to be desired. If congress ever recovers from its wild and} uncouth ways, if it abolishes its radical tend- encies, destroys its blocs and groups, and cli- ques and factions and returns to the sanity of former years and resolves itself into one bloc— and that the United States of America bloc— the people may forget and may forgive the lapse that has occasioned present public atti- tude. And in time, after a period of probation, | we all may come to have some respect for our | congress. But congress will have to hurry on| the way to reform, before we shall even con- template such a thing. | ‘Americanism, Republicanism, | Constructiveism Sonstructiveness has always been one of the characteristics of Republicanism. In this respect the party is but the composite of the character- istics of its individual members. For that reason, | iore than local interest will attach to a celebra- | tion planned to take place the latter part of June or early part of July at the capital of Delaware as a testimonial to General T. Cole- man du Pont in appreciation and recognition of his gift to the public of a state-long boulevarde. Although next to the smallest of our states in square miles, and often described as a state which has three counties when the tide is out, | Delaware has a length of ninety-cight miles. | This is the length of the highway constructed | by General Du Pont, chiefly at his own personal expense.

General Du Pont is of the family that is so extensively en gaged in the manufacture of powder and numer ous commodities produced in connection there- | with. His activities, however, have been chiefly | along other lines. He is known as a coal produc- er and the owner of a string of high class hotels and of business properties in New York city. He | has served very reptably as a member of the! Republican national committee, as chairman of | hig state committee, and for part of a term as a} senator from Delaware. | Many other men of wealth have devoted their efforts to the promotion of public welfare. by | the establishment of libraries, of educational in stitutions, hospi art galleries, ete., but Gen eral Du Pont seem* to stand alone as one who has devoted part of his wealth to the construc: | tion of a public highway.

Indicative of the character of the man it General Du construction appropriate to note that alt! Pont has been engaged in this r enterprise since 1911, and the « truction has } mark Those are official figures. Exports of cotton meats and manufactures have shown prorounc- ed increases. Even wheat sales abroad were larg- er in 1923 than in 1914, though Europe is re- turning to normal wheat production. We can’t make Europeans eat our wheat in preference to their own, particularly if they can raise their own cheaper, or can get Canadian wheat consid- erably cheaper. nd there must be something in that fact else the farmers would not insist on wheat protection, and the application of the flexible tariff provision to that commodity whereby the duty was recently raised from 30 to 42 cents a bushel. Senator Underwood and ‘his followers are hope- leesly and inconceivably inconsistent. When- ever a month shows a sagging trade balance they denounce the Republican tariff. When a year shows up well, as it did in 1923, they declare we are not selling enough to Europe. In the same breath they asnert we are prohibiting European imports and thus preventing Europe from pay ing her debts to us in “goods instead of gold” which could only be done by importing more from them than we export to Europe. If we should encourage a European excess of $1,000, 000,000 trade-annually it would take Europe 18 rs to work off the debt, not to mention ac imulating interest. Our favorable balance in 1918, under Republican law was $ dropped to $470,000,000 the first year under Dem ocratic law and 6,000,000 men were thrown out of work, For four or five months immediately! preceding the outbreak of the war the balance was against us and industrial and agricultural depression was general in this country. It can| be imagined whut would be the result if the| balance was against us for from 18 to 30 years? European prices would. set the plane and Ameri- can industries would have to suspend, as. they did in 1914. According to census statistics, nearly 7,000,000 Underwood eompetition and $4,000,000,000 would | be lost to the wage earners. Think of the effect | on other sorts of business and on the purchasing | rn Py power of farm products? That would be economic demoralization. Senator Underwood declares “the leading fac- tor in the building of business America has been the ready means of communication between the states, unhampered by artificial barriers to trade. This has enabled us to build up the greatest home market the world has ever known. There must be better and more free trade com- munication and the policy of building artificial barriers to stop commerce at national borders must be abandoned The protective tariff hag conserved the home for American industries and agricul tur hat was the purpose when the Democrats placed a duty on rice, and refused to carry out their design of free-listing sugar. They voted con sistently for protection to products of their re | Spective states in the framing of the present law, even though they voted against that law finally. It is because of no barriers between the states scale to that of Europe, and that is a low level That is wants Senator Underwood apparently what Senator Underwood wants to be president.

Prescott, Director of the Depart- ment of Biology and Public Health of the Massachu- Setts Institute of Technology. This statement was not made on the spur of the moment, but was one of the conclusions reached by Professor Prescott after the most thorough investi- gation of Coffee ever made. For more than three years he worked and experimented in his laboratory. His research was scientific and exhaustive and his findings, therefore, establish the fact that Coffee is a safe and desirable drink for the great majority of. 6—Scour the Coffee pot.
