‘ SILK MEN ATTACK EXCHANGE IN JAPAN Appeal to Tokio to Stop Price Fluctuations in Yokohama. WASHINGTON, May 23.—Through the New York Silk Exchange and the Silk Association of America, Ameri- can silk merchants have lodged with the Japanese Minister of Agriculture @ vigorous protest against the manner in which the Yokohama Silk Ex- change is being operated but Mr. McDermond now owns two newspapers.

But I think that the tax works against the United States, because many, like the three women in question, decide not to come here after learning it.” * ° By Roger Batchelder. New Yorkers, ;who should know better, are rather the weography of their own country, In the opinion of C/‘C. Royall, a lawyer of Silver City, New Mexico, who Is at the Waldorf-Astoria, It’s surpris- ing, Mr. Royall ‘finds, how many people hereabouts have an idea that New Mexico, for instance, is some- how or otner a part of Mexico, or again, that Lower California is « part of the United States. “Perhaps it’s our own fault down in New Mexico," Mr. Royall admits. “Perhaps our State hasn't had the advertising it ought to have, while our next door neighbor, Arizona, with no greater aflvantages, has spurted way ahead in the race for public recognition. Arizona has the Roose- velt Dam, an irrigation project known throughout the world, yet New Mexico has the Elephant Butte Dam, a far larger and more costly enter- prise, reclaiming about 400,000 acres of land that apparently is unheard of east of the Mississippi “But New Mexico is surely coming to the front in public attention, with @ gradual and quiet development which started about a year ago in the mining districts, and is now gain- ing full momentum, The comeback of silver and the large scale develop- ment of copper properties are slowly putting the State back on the map. About $100,000,000 in silver has been mined in the country around Silver City since the days of the pioneer prospectors, and practically all of it was obtained from mere surface scratchings. Mach of the country has not been even thoroughly pros- pected.’ hazy op FARTHEST FROM HOME. rhe “New Yorker for a Day or Two" who is farthest from home to-day is D. B.
