June 50. 1914. amounted to $2o6. Ats, ,5O2. or
$8.000.O00 per month. AS a revenue pro-
ducer he existing tariff compares favor
ably with other tariff laws enacted in the
last twenty-five years. Taking the month
ly average customs receipts for the en-
tire periods In which the respective tar
IFS remained in force, 1t is found that the
present law. while yielding somewha,
less revenue than the Payne law, Is
slightly more remunerative than the
as productive as the Mckinley and Will
son laws.
Tho aggregate customs receipts during
nine months under the Underwood tariff
law were $206. 473. .5o2 or $4,000. 900 per
month; during fifty months under the
Payne tariff, 81. 3S5 100000. or $26. 750.O0o
per month: during IA months under the
Dingley tariff. $3,122O0OOOO. or S21, 150, ,00O
per month; during thirty-fi months un-
der the Wilson tariff. S4S5 .O0O, 600 or $14.-
100000 per month: and during forty-seven
months under the Mckinley tariff, $685.
10000 or $14 4JOO, 900 per month.
The average ad valorem rates of duty
on merchandise imported under the I'm
derwood tariff laws are the lowest in
twenty-five years, being SO per cent, when
based upon dutiable imports, and IA per
cent when based upon total imports. Un-
der the Mckinley law these rates were
All and 221 per cent, respectively; under
tho Wilson law. 42s and 21.9 per cent;
under the Dingley law, 4S.S and 25.5 per
cent. and under the Payne law, 405 and

FREIGHT RATECASE
DECISION DUE TODAY
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Announces Publication
"At or After 3 PM"

It was announced today at the inter-
state commerce commission that every
effort would be made to publish the
decision in the eastern advance freight
rate case ''at or after pm. today"
The announcement. signed by the
secretary of the commission, was post
ed at the general office. and it was
said it would stand for the day. An
ticipating attempts to forecast the de-
cision, officials said any reports pur-
porting to give the commissions con-
clusion in the noted case would be
wholly unauthorized and speculative.
Decision Expected for Six Weeks.
The decision affecting fifty-two railroad
systems east of the Mississippi and north
of the Potomac and Ohio rivers, in what
Is designated official classification terri
tory. has been under consideration sew
eral months and an announcement has
been expected from day to day for the
last six weeks. At one time July 3 had
been set as a tentative date for the an
nouncement. but the commission found
itself in difficuities in agreeing upon all
points and retraced it's steps reconstruct
ing the decision almost entirely, and, in
fact writing it anew on many phases.
The railroads have asked the in
crease solely on the ground that their
revenues have become insufficient to
meet the increasing cost of wages and
other expenses. Opposition to the in
crease has been conducted on the
ground that the railroads would nave
sufficient revenue without increasing
charges to the public by conserving
their revenue, with greater efficiency
and eliminating free services to large
shippers.

Judges Are Unorganized.

IF all the numerous judges, in some
states several hundred in number, are to
do their individual piecework so that
there will be real effectiveness in the out
put of the entire force, there must be
centralized intelligence to direct their eff
forts. and this intelligence must have
power to enforce it's will. There must be
finally one single person held responsible
for the execution of the centralized will
OF the judicial department and for har-
monious work. That single responsible
person must be accountable directly to
all the people of the state.
Lacking any administrative machinery
in our judicial system, we have been
obliged to. legislate a great volume of
mandatory and inflexible rules in an ef-
fort to force judges to do the right thing.
AS matter of fact judges almost always
want to do the right thing, but are con-
stantly confronted by this infiexible
procedure which compels them to do
awkward and uneconomical things.
1T is now quite generally agreed that
beyond short practice act, all rules of
procedure should be rules of court which
will permit of variance in the interest OF
substantial justice. Lawyers talk this
but there is no step toward putting il
into effect, and the reason Is that the
judicial system is SO fiabby that there is
really no place where this important
power can be safely vested.
But no great change is needed. There
need be no such sweeping change as
takes place when a city adopts commits
sion government. 1t is merely necessary
to create a unified organization of the
courts of a state. making very little
change In the accustomed courts. There
will still be judges devoted to the trial
of all sorts of causes and a court for ap-
peal, and local judges of limited jurisdic-
ton. The central authority which must
exist to exercise the rule-making power.
which must be transferred largely from
the legislature to the judiciary. can he
brought into being by providing judicial
council of five or seven or nine judges.
The head of the council will be the chief
justice of the state. These men may
spend most of their time on the bench.
but as a judicial council they will have
important administrative powers, will be
come. in fact. responsible for the enforce
ment of departmental rules and for the
economical and prompt functioning. Of
the entire department.

Department of Commerce
Gives Operation for First
Nine Months.
FOREIGN COMMERCE ONLY
EXCEEDED ONCE BEFORE
Declares Record Compares Favorsbly
With Similar Measures ENACTED
in Last Twenty-Five Years.

The Department Of Commerce today
made public q statement showing the
operations Of the new tariff law for the
first nine months Of its existence as they
have affected foreign commerce.
According to the statement the United
States has had in that period a foreign
commerce Of $a2ls, ,568, $40. which is. with
one exception. the largest total ever
shown for like period. and which falls
only 217 per cent below tho high record
made in the October-June period Of
1912-13
The statement is as follows:
Imports, according to the official ns-
ures of the bureau Of foreign and domes-
tic commerce, Department Of Commerce,
In the nine months ended with June last
amounted to $1,446, 127, ,491. against ST.
304, 765,233 in the corresponding period one
year ago, and 81, 284. .003. 7O1 in the like
period two years ago.
Free merchandise imported during the
first nine months Of the present tarn
law aggregated SS93, ,6O2 100. forming 61.6
per cent OF the total imports compared
with $40 per cent In the corresponding
period year earlier.
High Record Imports.
"The high-record imports noted above

in foodstuffs, amounting to $73.0O0.OO0 in
the first nine months Of the new tariff
period, and smaller increases in manu-
features and raw materials. Partially
completed manufactures imported fell OF
about IA per cent.
Exports during the nine months under
review totaled $1.797. .439. $40. with ono ex-
ception the largest October-June total
ever shown, being rs per cent below the
high record made in the nine months
ended June 30, 1913, and 80 per cent
above the best record made in the cores
ponding period Of any earlier year. The
falling off in exports, which had been
somewhat pronounced in the period from
November to May last. seems to have
about eliminated, since the figures for
June were only Sc 2S5. 465 below June of
last year. and were considerably more
than those of any prior June in the his
tory of the export trade.
1.-THE decrease in exports was chiefly
in foodstuffs, a reflection of the shortage
in the domestic supply. which also mani
tested itself in larger importatons OF
that class. Foreign requirements OF
American products for manufacturing
purposes were slightly less than in the
same period a year ago. falling on OF
$40, GOO, ,OCO being noted in the exports OF
partially manufactured materials, and an
increase of $32, GOO coo in the exports OF

PLAN TO IMPROVE
AMERICAN COURTS
American Judicature Society
Organized to Make Them
Efficient.
FOR CENTRAL BODY WITH
POWER TO ENFORCE RULES
Legislatures Will Be Asked to Pass
Model Act for Unified
System.

Herbert Harley. secretary Of the Ameri-
can Judicature Society, has written for
The Survey an article on How to Make
Better Courts from the point of view
Of his society, which is a national one.
He suggests efficiency through better or
ganization and simpler methods.
Mr.. Harley's article Is as follows:
There are encouraging signs that the
reaction Of the legal profession to the
storm of criticism which burst upon our
judicial systems year or two ago Is to
be distinctly helpful. In many states
the more public spirited lawyers are seek
ing to forward constructive reform.
THE stage of inquiry is not yet passed.
Just what it is that makes justice pain
fully slow and uncertain is still mat
ter Of disagreement. 1t is understood
that in England and Canada, among peo-
pie similar to ourselves. and where the
substantive law is closely related to ours,
the courts are self-conscious and ambi-
tious-that they make good" The nat
ural expectation is that in America the
courts will eventually reflect the national
instinct for effectiveness; that they will
become practical, economical of effort,
efficient.
Reflects National Defects.
While. American courts do not exem-
plify our instinct for practically, they
are perfect reflection of our national
timidity in government. We have the
most thoroughly decentralized government
the world has ever seen In recent years we
nave come to see that the dissipation of

servants to the people.
me movement is beginning to extend
TO state governments and it appears that
soon we will have real politics in this
country in place of the degrading hustle
for Office which has been heretofore the
minspring of public action
we are beginning to see that the trou-
Die with our courts is almost identical
with the trouble experienced in municipal
government so long that we had become
fairly pessimistic when the short ballot
under the guise of commission govern
ment' came in.
THE complaint is not so much that
judges do not know the law or do not
conscientiously apply it. The complaint
is largely as to failure on the admins
trative side of the judicial. function.
