Gains have been especially noticeable in October and.are said to pres: # age a pre rou inter. Especial emphasis is giyen to the z temobile industry where unother increase has becn noted during the past thirty days, and the report of the department declares that ‘if increased employment in this industry is any indication the peak of employment and production has not yet been attained and it would seem that the overworked worc ‘saturation’ lost its meaning in the automobile industry.” The repo ays further that freight traffic has increased and so stimulated the employment in railway circles, the iron and steel industry shows additional gains, the textile industry is in 2 more fayorablee position and in the cotton and sugar beef states there is a persistent demand for worke Holiday lines are under way aud the radio and r y manu facturers s bu as never before. There is . son fer this prosperity and it cennot all be d > the f position of the United States and the contention that we were first to recover from the shock of the war. There is Tittle wonder that the people of less favored lands are anxious to come to America. A ne middle estern writer recently e> plained it . “The wisdom of our laws, our freedom from the malign and disruptive influences of communism, our delivera the burdens imposed by vast military establishments urn. aments—these things have their important bearing on the gen- eral situation, Peace and the’ untrammeled pursuit of ber arts, is Europe’s need. Europe's divestment of 1 military burdens should put her countries in the way 6f a progress and happiness comparable with our own.” Impeding Justice Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom, of Indj. s finger on one of the chief sources of 1] : declares that by multiplying laws regulati loaded down the courts and police than it is possible for them to-do. So many acts have been made wrong by leg » Which heretofore were un- known or legal, that the work of our police forces has been multiplied to the point where it is impossible to give sufficien attention to detecting and punishing the more serious crime Mr. Gilliom s: “This is a ¢ondition which h me about as the re: a, has put wlessness when he ig conduct we haye uthorities with more work hi ult of the ever increasing tend to regu ulinost everyor ul everything by setting up moral standards and arbitrary conceptions of conduct and by attempting to compel obedience thereto by means of our police forces and other en forcement offices. If this tendency continues. I fear that it I ultimately lead to.n condition of poorly protected people real crime on the one hand, and a terri ving enfor ment of tyrannous laws which invade the sphere of priv conduct on the other. To me it seems plain that we must k such police forces as our people are willing to sustain, suffi- ciently free to permit them to cope with those who are the real criminals and we must stop demanding their protection pri marily for a yague public instead of the interests of the public, * America’s Sugar Safeguard The United States spends $2,000,000 a day present low price.

The friendship of Cuba and the United States alone made it possible to live in sugarless ( Brit ain during the World War. It does not wish to a he i such a position. Just now, sugar-growing would help ye the unemployment situation in Great Britain, where 1,200,000 people are jobless and drawing public dole. _ Our own country never made a better investment than in its sugar factories that prevent foreign sugar monopoly and insure the nation against a sugar famine in case of interna- tional disturbances. It is well to encourage our beet sugar industry. ctoric n aut own Youthful Criminals Among the twenty-nine commitments to the Connecticut Reformatory last week there were fourteen who had American names, and fifteen who ranged frem Cristo to Perpuchak. Of the twenty-nine commitments five are for theft of automobiles, six for burglary and seven for robbery and theft. It is to be remembered that these are all persons under and the lesson the story tells is not an agreeable one. Controversy Likely That there is likely to be more difficulty over administra tive features of the coming tax bill, than over the schedules, is indicated at Washington. In spite of the country-wide de mand for speedy action contemplating reduction of taxes, differences between the Couzens sy 1 committee and the treasury department, over rulings and methods of collection, it is thought, will cause controversy, especially in the-senat and will result in greater delay than has been expected. ‘The Couzens committee cannot report until the senate is in session, A British with visitor says that the Statue of Liber her back to the United es.

We have had in this country successive eras of federalism in which national vower hag been exalted at the .ex- pense of the states. But periods of reaction always follow—as they should do—in order to preserve the rue balance between the states and the nation. We are now in such a period, and It is encouraging to see the states combining to expel the federal government from a field of taxation in which. itis an {intruder and has always been considered as such except in war times. n 1924 congress. stitbbornly raised inheritance taxes, which should have been reduced. or aban: doned. Senators and. representatives voted then against the interests of their states under the pressure of partisan polities or, unsound tax propaganda. Thirty-two governors have,now united {na demand that the federal treasury shall stop tax- ing estates for its benefit. The states which speak: through. their executives have majorities. in. both the house and: the senate. It fg no wonder that Mr. Green and Mr, Garner, the chief supporters of high peacetime federal levies on estates, are now taking to cover and sug: gesting that the federal government net hereafter simply as an agent of the states in collecting such reve- nues. “There ought to be no duplicate tate and federal taxation of in- heritances. Mr. Mark Graves, of the New York Tax commission, was absolutely right when he told the Ways’ and Means commitkee that ‘the states have a superior claim on their revenues,’ and that the in- heritance tax increases in the 1924 act were contrary to established policy. “There remains the question of r the state inheritance Here rida is the great bugaboo. She has put a constitu- tional veto on inheritance levies. Other states, realizing the economic disadvantages Of levies on capital, are fearful that. Florida, and other commonwealths following her ex- ample, will prosper disproportionate- ly by domlciling large fortunes. If the estates desire to maintain equal- ity in this respect they can do so by imposing uniform and moderate estate taxes and avoiding clashes over the power to tax the~ same property. On this point Mr. Graves sted the ultimate solution. when he said: “The ideal situation vould be that no matter where a dicd under the Stars and duties wou'd be an defied common sense onsress d the counsels of President Cool- idge and Secretary Mellon when it increased the estate taxes in 1924.

It has created a condition which restrains the pro- gress of industry just as a London fog does that of a motorist. All ahead is uncertain and full of dan- gers. Confidence? There !sn't any such thing! The British manufacturer gropea. In extremely few cases has he had the courage to bulld largely and em- ploy: the great: amount of capital which would be required to install thi reforms, might, possibly, cause 4 further increase in our imports, but revision downward would surely them. decrease Twilight By Bertha Ten Eych James.

Not a Shylock Some of our newspapers which habitually take the International rather than the American view of things are now protesting mildly be- cause of the report that the nation- al administration will frown upon the idea of American bankers lend- ing any more money to France or other European nations which re- fuse or fail to fund) their debts to the United States government. “Says the Springtield’ Republican: “Frankly the Republican does not Uke the application of that kind of pressure; it comes nearer the sug: gestion of Shylock than anything hitherto done or proposed. It fs up to France to pay her debt according to her capacity to pay er to openly repudiate the debt if she prefers. Cancellation Jg not called for by the United States. Let the debt remain unpaid and unhonored, however, rather than engage in coerclye meas- ures in private banking circles de- signed to bring a reluctant debtor to her knees.” | If France has the power to repu- diate’ the debt owing to the United States then surely the United States government has the right to advise American’ bankers against lendifg meéney to a nation which: fails to fund Its honest obligations. if France has the power to refuse to pay, then it follows that Uncle Sam cannot coerce her, even {f he so de- sired. * But there {s nothing of coercion in the reported action of President Coolidge. If France cannot pay what she owes the United States and can- not even pay the interest at one per cent for five years, then certain- ly a friendly warning to American investors would seem to be in order. If interest at one per cent cannot be paid, what. assurance is there | that in the future interest of seven,. or elght, or nine per cent could be Mquidated? The money which the American bankers lend to Europe Js net made in the banks. It comes from the people of the United States, who would eventually hold the bag if there was an trouble about repayment, just as they will hold the bag and pay France's war debt through taxation, {f France does not fund it and commence pay- ing on the principal and interest. How can we know just how much money the French can safely bor- row frem American private Invest- ors until they get their financial sit- uation clarified. and how can this be clarified until the war debt is funded? It would certainly seem that there is something beside ten- tative coercion in any intimation which may have gone out from the | White House. Here is a quotation from Charles E. Mitchell, president of the Nation- al City Bank of New York, who certainly net an isolationist, given as he returned from a three-monbhs’ trip to Europe, “Buropean nations, indebted | to the United States should not look to this country for further financial assistance until they have set in or- der thelr international obligations. No country can get a proper balance to its budget until {ts requirement as to debt te settled. Until tht te done ft ts distinctly at a cemmereial 1 disadvantageinternally, and. exter- nally because it is quite impossible fo measure the credit status of any country for establishment of a debt with private [nvestors of the United States.” It is really too bad that so many realy excellent newspapers see American affairs through European eye slakses. ‘La Mort By Jessica Royer.
