Strenuous efforts have actually been put forth to “squeeze the water out of prices.” Selling panics have been promoted. Yet none of the bear tactics long survive. The great tide of production and prosperity has risen over all obstructions and obstructors again and again to higher levels than ever. We have the figures now that show that new financing in the United States reached a new level in September. It exceeded by $125,000,000 the record- breaking total for the previous September. A Lawrence Stern and Company circular the tot of new stock, bond and note financing for ptember was $684,119,877—an in- crease of 41 per cent. over August and 16 per cent. more than for September 1928. Of this total, in- vestment trusts and financial issues comprised $497,- 261,725 which was 56 per cent. of the total volume of all publicly offered security issues in the month and 80 per cent. of the stock financing. Justify the elder, says combined LIQUOR ENFORCEMEN AND LO! I' AND PROFIT The Saskatchewan Provincial treasury netted a profit of $3,083947 from the sale of liquor during the last fi ear—an increase of about $600,000 over the previous year. The difference between Saskatchewan and many American States is that | the profits from the trade there goes to the com- monwealth and serves to reduce taxes. In the United States it goes to bootleggers and causes large expenditures by our governments to suppress a traffic that is not being suppressed This suggests that the next Congress will be asked to appropriate much more largely than ever before for Prohibition enforcement.’ The appro- priations, large in the beginning, have been per- sistently increased from year to year. Now after ten years Congress will be urged to add many more millions to the budget. Experts in Prohibi- tion enforcement have estimated that it would cost from $1,000,000,000 to $1500,000,000 a year te give us real enforcement in the country. This does not take into account the scores that are killed. It would seem annually that this situation would suggest to a man of ordinary intelligence that there ought to be some other method of handling the liguor traffic. It is clear that the! time js at hand to eliminate fanaticism and utilize some common is one that sense. ADER I’I‘:(\'S FIDDLE. TAMMANY LE SCOND New York papers chronicle the interesting news at Mayor Walker and not Tammany Leader Cur- ry is running the present Democratic municipal campaign in that City. Mayor Walker took charge and picked the city-wide candidates he wanted to| run with him and named the judicial county ticket for New York County, which is co-extensive with Manhattan Bor In Jjudicial ticket Mayor Walker insisted upon the renomination of two Republican Judges that had made good. One of them was Judge Finch who hunted big game in Westward Alaska last year. He was nominated by the Democrats for Supreme Court Justice Judge Hart- man, a Republican, was nominated by the Demo- crats to be one of the City Ju It is significant that the Reput an-Fusion reformers did not nom- inate any of the Democrats who were candidates for re-election, though all of them were endorsed by the New York Bar Association. Tammany want- ed to retal against the opposition by placing Democrats in all the judicial positions, but Mayor Walker said no. The action of Mayor Walker is regarded as a rebuke to those Tammany district leaders who made it “unpleasant” for Judge Olvany when he was Tammany leader and who made Curry leader. His action, it is believed, restores first place in the Democratic organization to Gov. Smith, Mayor ugh., selecting the Walker, Senator Wagner and Judge Foley, the “Big | Four” of the various Smith cempaigns and the last Walker campaign. g Mayor - Walker's action would indicate that we shall probably never again see old Tammany methods in control in that organization or in the City of New York.

One by one life’s mysteries disappear. Now we know what a man is doing when he is inside look= ing out. He is obliging the law, paying a debt. Christ Sotirio Christondoudon applied for final citizenship papers in Seattle Federal Court recently, Examination disclosed that he had spent the first four months of his five-year good-behavior period in jail on a liquor charge arising out of an of- fense nine months previous. The examiner, cit- ing his record, declared he was ineligible. Ruling on the matter last Monday, Federal Judge George M. Bourquin found that “The petitioner, while in jail, was not violating but obliging the law, the act of an honest man of good moral character, paying a debt.” Nevertheless most people will continue to prefer to violate the law, suffer the stabs of conscience and greet the parade of collectors rather than go to ail. Pacific Coast Rich in These Resources. (Seattle Business Chronicle.) Of immense interest to Pacific Coast is the news |that a Canadian company has succeeded in pro- ducing sponge iron from low-grade refractory iron ore. This new process is said to reduce low-grade jores to iron electrically, without the use of carbon. |1t is claimed that this process will not only handle magnetite iron but that it will also utilize scrap iron. Pacific Coast, in this connection, may once more {demonstrate the basis of its economic strength, which is the remarkable harmony and interplay of its economic elements. The application of low- cost electricity in reduction of low-grade ore on the Pacific Coast would revise the industrial map. Forever and ever and always, our bread will please you.
