EUROPE TO GUST NORMONS

BERLIN, July A.-(Special Cablegram y
Germany has taken the lead in what would
be an international movement against
Mormonism and Mormon missionaries. For
several years missionaries sent out from
America and England have been working
diligently upon the continent. Recently
Mormonsm has grown to such an extent In
European countries that the governments
took cognizance of protests from various
churches
The campaign to drive Mormonism out of
Europe will be systematic Those who pro-
fess to be members of the church Will not
be molested so long as their religious OBJ
serVances do not interfere with the civil
or criminal laws of the country In which
they reside. Only the missionaries who
are accused of under tactics in preaching
their doctrine, win be ordered to leave the
countries.

who may be allowed to remain. The other
eighteen have until Monday to leave Ger

The police today assembled the Mormon

had, in the meantime, appealed to Charge

embassy. Mr.. Laughlin, in the absence of
Hill, requested the foreign
office to cancel the orders of expulsion for

Uncle Sam suppies the world.

Uncle Sam is now annually pouring
money into the lap of the rest OF the world.
In other words, the flow is no longer in
the direction OF the United States, from
abroad. 1t is in the direction OF the rest
of the world, from the United States.
The balance of trade on the face of
things is still in favor of the United States;
that is. the statistics of the Department
of Commerce and Labor show this country
is exporting more than 1t is importing. Fig
ures recently given out by the Department
of Commerce and Labor showed the excess
Of exports over imports was $ls7. 11,S49.
This, however, is an extremely small ex-
cess, the lowest in recent years.
But the small balance of trade in our
favor, as shown by the figures, is much
more than counterbalanced by the fact that
large sums of money go out annually from
America which are not included in the
term of exports. These sums go mainly
to Europe. They consist of the following:
Money expended by American tourists trav-
cling abroad, money sent abroad to pay
interest on American securities held there,
money sent abroad by persons of foreign
birth living in the United States who con-
tribute to relatives. and money paid to for
eigners for transportation.
Estimates as to the totals OF these items
vary widely. But 1t is said from good
authority that from 1OO,OOOO 900 to $3.50 200, 900
is carried abroad and left there by Ameri-
can tourists; about as much more is sent
abroad for interest, and perhaps 100000 900
is sent by those Of foreign birth in this
who give to relatives and friends
abroad

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 24.-(Special.)
This is the time when all the government
departments are engaged in making con-
tracts for fixtures, supplies and material,
also, for the construction of public build
ngs The result of the recent opening OF
bids demonstrates very clearly the condi-
ton of business throughout the country
There are number of big concerns, es-
pecially among manufacturers of steel, that
never bid upon government work when they
have plenty OF commercial business to at
tend to. They seem to go upon the theory
that government contracts are the least
desirable for a manufacturer and the reason
Is that the technicalities which surround
most of the contracts are so great and
that the action of some of the minor Off
cials and employees Of the government in
enforcing these technicalities are so annoy
ing as to frequently deprive the contractor
of every particle of profit. The most no.
ticeable difference between bids this year
and those of previous openings is found in
the time of delivery for contracts running
into thousands of dollars. Last year It was
possible to secure bids ranging from 5000
to $4,000 for fixtures and supplies, with de-
liveries OF sixty or ninety days, or az the
farthest four months, in nearly every in
stance noted this year the concerns which
are recognized as the best and most re-
liable will not agree to do such amount
of government work under six to eight
months.
The inference drawn by the department
officials from this state of affairs is that
manufacturing plants are running to their
full capacity and that manufacturers do
not care to involve themselves in a liza
Por h.y
deliveries within a shorter period. In other
words they have plenty Of business aside
from that secured from the government
and Uncle Sam must wait his turn instead |
OF being granted favors not extended to the |
world.
