What Protection Does.

What protection does for the
American mechanic and the Amer.
lean manufacturer is graphically de-
picted by the report of a member Of
the British Institute Of Automobile
Engineers, just returned from an in
spection of auto factories in this
country. The conclusions Of this
expert, R. w. A. Brewer, are embod-
fed In a statement on the subject Of
dumping" American motor cars into
England, the English manufacturers
naturally protesting against this
flooding Of their market. Says Mr.
Brewer, as quoted, t
American motor car manufacturers
think we are mad because we do moi
have tariff. The american car is sby
no means result Of cheap labor or Of
cheap material. for the cars are of excel
lent quality. 1t IL a result of the protec-
tion in America for its rnotor-car indus

hardly any cars are imported. Thus
America has the industry to herself, and
with her own markets protected, she can
produce for the world.
What 'are we to do7 Undoubtedly the
first thing 10 to encourage the British
manufacturer. A 45 per cent ad valoren,

flood OF American light cars. Then. II

Ii woman Suffrage the Remedys
OMAHA, Aug. 2l.-To the Editor Of
The Bee: Your woman readers will GER.
tainly second your suggestion that the
suppression Of oggling, smirkirg men In
the down town streets are in order. More
than once have / been tempted to use
my indirect influence for all 1t was worth
and do my womanly best to spoil the
face of some smart-alec with my UNI
brella, but could never bring myself to
stoop SO low for such ANONYMOUSLY femin-
Inc victory.
II is thus that over and over we women
are brought face to face with the big
lie that for so long we believed, that to
allow some women to be subjected to the
most terrible slavery of the body and soul
east and north of such and such streets
would protect all good women from In
suit west and south OF named streets.
We know that verbal insults to women
on the upper streets Is but the dark
enipg penumbra Of protected vice touch
ing all women, and 1t Is only right
THAI as long as we women remain indit~
ferent to such injustice to our kind, that
4
we, too. be included in the universal
smirch that the bare existence OF such
thing proves to exist. And, Mr. Editor.
now that we've nailed the lie and without
presuming to instruct we are impelled
to affirm that the hardest blow you could
strike at the nuisance you point out
would be one directed at the compiacent
acceptance of double standards, one of
which gave rise to the lie that protected
| vice saved women from insult And the
most direct blow would be to help remove
her political disabilities so she could
place deterrents on this nuisance and re-
move some of its incentives. As long as
serious crimes against women are pun
,shed less than the theft of a shilling as
courts records prove. insults on the
streets are likely TO continue to be over
looked and an umbrella handle in the
face of the results Of injustice is mucn
less effective weapon than the vote.

Did Good Seed Corn Help9

To what extent is the assurance of
a better than usual corn crop due to
greater care in seed selection?
The answer, which unfortunately
cannot in the nature of the case be
definite, will be interesting to many
people besides the farmers directly
concerned.
The seed corn propaganda carried
on in Nebraska by cooperation Of
the Omaha Commercial club and the
State university, and elsewhere by
other agencies, was directed to arous-
ing the farmer to a realization Of the
danger lurking in poor seed and to
get him to apply the scientific tests
to insure termination.
If the farmers are convinced by
the quantity and quality of the yield
that the benefits of this campaign
are appreciable, 1t will be easier to
persuade them to persist in the work
