Joker" in Lumber Tariff

The National Forest Conservation
League has sent out an open letter all
over the country which shows the little
joker in the proposed reduction In the
lumber tariff and which indicates that
the changes in the schedules in the
new tariff bill as it stands are going to
be of little benefit to- the farmers and
other consumers of lumber. At the
first glance a cut to one half tae pres
emit rate looks big, but the letter Of the
league shows that the change on the
duty on the raw material is going to
make little difference to the average
purchasers of lumber. The letter fol
lows:
The lumber schedule Of the bill the
Ways and Means Committee has just
reported is a profound disappointment
to the lumber consumer.
While the duty on rough lumber is
reduced from So to 81, the duty on
finished lumber in all forms is left so
high as to remain prohibitive.
Rough lumber owing to Transports
tion charges cannot be imported into
the United States except where water
transportation is available.
Consequently the reduction on rough
lumber is of no benefit whatever to the
farmers and other consumers in the
great interior country.
Finished lumber can be imported be-
cause of the saving in railway rates
as compared with rough lumber If the
tariff permit it, but as proposed it does
not permit it.
About ninety per cent Of the lumber
shipped from a mill by rail goes through
the planning mill before it is put on
the cars.
About the same percentage Of the
lumber sold at retail lumber yard
is planned or finished in some measure.
That is to say, the ordinary consumer
of lumber buys finished lumber almost
entirely.
And the lumber schedule as drafted
makes it impossible for him to get this
lumber from abroad. Therefore, he
viii be entirely dependent on domestic
supplies as before.
This is the kind Of revision that may
fool, but will not benefit.
Every congressman who wants to
help his constituents to get cheaper
lumber should insist on free lumber,
both rough and finished.
Failing in that he should insist that
finished lumber which is what his aver
age constituent buys, not be taxed more
than rough lumber, which is what the
average constituent does not buy.

Joseph Rose, the Italian boy arrest

of sending an improper letter through
the United States mails, was discharg-
ed in the United States Court at Mil

been made Of the actions Of Jennie
Gallo Rose, his sixteen year old sister
in-laW who admitted to the officials
that she conspired to send Rose to
prison. AS yet no warrant has been
issued for the child-wife and it is still
possible that, Notwithstanding the
complaints made by Rose and his
friends, that the government officials

story was such an unusual one and at
the same time not without its pathetic
Iside, that the officials are in guam
dairy as to what shall be done. The
matter was taken up with the govern
ment officials in Milwaukee today, but
District Attorney Baker has not been
advised Of their decision in the mat

Every little while a story of some
merchant s experiences with shop filters
and sneak thieves goes the rounds and
the frequency with which these stories
crop out leads to the conclusion that
there must be dozens of other cases
that are kept entirely secret and are
never brought to the attention of the
public. Not all of the cases are heard
of by a good deal. 1t is doubtful if
the merchants themselves know just
how much they lose in this way, but
the total must be considerable in the
course Of year s business. They have
the poor consolation of knowing, how
ever, that they are the ones most to
blame for the present conditions which
result in such heavy losses. There
seems to be a sort Of unwritten law
that prosecutions in the courts shall
never follow the discovery Of thefts of
this nature and every merchant ad-
heres to it rigidly when called upon to
deal with these cases. Of course the
thieves know better than anybody else
that they are not likely to be punished
when caught and they may be expected
to go right on stealing until the mer-
chants change their system and not
only make public the names of the
thieves, but do their best to secure their
conviction. There are signs that the
merchants are not going to submit to
being robbed openly much longer and
there may be an unpleasant surprise
in store for the next shoplifter caught.
