One hand is extended in friendship and the other with a dag: ger ready to strike at first opportunity. The government of France committeed the fol- ly of bolshevist recognition, despite the notor- ious fact that Moscow has employed as a bolshe- vist propagandist for France, a deserter from the Fren rmy. The serious effect of this ac- tion was disclosed when the Russian envoy reac ed Paris and became the center of a revolution- ary communist demonstration, during which the overthrow of the government by violence was publicly de: nded and predicted. Th 9 government of France is now busily en- aged in deporting revolution communists, gents of utocracy, and breaking up groups of ries plotting the very life of the repub To do this and at the same time to be extending fraternal greeting to the diplo- matie representative of the government that is and neing this revolutionary course so inconsistent that it can be explained only by the fact that in France as in the United States, there are politicians who » their own ambitions above the safety of the he American people are not ready to extend encouragement and support to the Moscow des- potism, which is a standing denial of every prin- ciple of free government and has raised the black Fo ae aig en Che Casper Dailp Butter and Eggs American exports of butter for the first nine months of the currént year totaled 4,546,000 pounds with a value of slightly under $2,000,000. It may be interesting to the Ameri- can butter producers to know that. about 80 per cent of these butter exports went to the Latin Americas. Among the largest purchasers were Mexico, 665,000 pounds; Panama, 601,000 pounds; Cuba, 582,000 pounds, and other West Indies, 720,000 pounds. About 425,000 pounds went to Peru and: 175,000 pounds to other South American countries. Other purchasers were Haiti, Honduras, and Dominiczn Republic. Mexico purchases 95 per cent of her butter requirements fron: this country and Panama buys practical ly all her butter from us, but Den- such action. They could still serve the adminis- tration if willing to make the sacrifice. On the other hand, the resignation of all the commissioners would relieve the president of em- barrassment in case he should not care to reap- point any of them. Honesty in Elections If any revision of the federal corrupt prac- tices laW is made which does not carry out the president’s recommendation of an assurance of the right of citizens who are qualified elec- tors under the suffrage laws of their states to cast their ballots and have them counted, and which does not provide that registration and elec- tion laws and procedure shall give a square deal to all parties, it will convict its authors of un- diay Hest hypocrisy.

Should Request Resignations It is universally recognized that the’ present tariff commission is not unctioning” as con- templated by the laws governing its activities und that there is little chance that the deadlock will be broken soelong as ‘the membership re- mains unchanged. It appears that the best so- Jution of the difficulty is for President Cool- idge to ask every member of the commission to dand in his resignation, With the slate wiped clean, the president would be relieved of much difficulty and embar- rassment. It would leave him a free hand to ap- point a commission which could work in har- mony with each other and in harmony with the policy of the administration. It must be remem- bered that the tariff commission has no author- ity save to make investigations and report the results thereof to the president. The report of the commission is simply to place him in pos- session of the facts. He is the one who decides what action shall be taken, It is true that the] commission expresses its views as to what action | hould be taken but the president is not bound} by such views or recommendations. He can inter- pret the facts according to his own judgment.

There were 87,794 conyictions; sentences 8,496 years, averaging 34 days; acquittals ; cases dropped, 8,592, and cases pending June 30, 1924, 24,164. Property worth $10,828,881 was seized of which $7,745,952 worth was left undestroyed. Automobiles, 5,214 in number and valued at $3,226,329, and 236 s, worth $279,178, were taken. Fines of § 19 were paid. Eleven million dollars are granted for enforcing the prohibition laws and, incidentally, the antimarcotic statutes during the next fiscal year by the house appropria- tions committee. In addition the coast guard is awarded $9,097,257 for its fight against the rum fleet. Objecting to Treaty While the chief objection of senators opposing the pending commercial treaty with Germany is based on the provisions against the granting of preferential tariff rates on goods carried in American ships, some senators are also appre- hensive that the treaty would have the effect of nullifying section of the merchant marine act under which preferential rail rates would be provided on both exports and inports whenever the members of the tariff commission differ : to the facts, it causes the president gr embar- rassment as in the case of the sugar investiga- ud work no_ har p for the present ommissioners to re for They are men who can earn much more in private than in pub: lic life.
