the effects of the Underwood Tariff
and European war upon our interna-
tional commerce, compiled from Of

presented in a summarized tabular
review. In connection with this re
view it should be borne in mind that
the months of October and Novem-

tage to the results of the Underwood

HARD TIMES THE RESULT OF
FREE-TRADE, NOT OF WAR
american Economist.l


The Free-Traders now in control of
the government are trying to show
that the European war is the cause
of general business depression, of the
unemployment of millions of people,
and of the Gripping of our interna-
tionaf commerce. But the official fig
ures, complied from reports of the
United States Department of Com
merce, register different tale.
During the months of April to July,
1914, inclusive, the Underwood Free
Trade Tariff law of 1918. was in full
force and effect. These same four
months Immediately preceded the Eu-
ropean war. They represent a fair
and normal period of the operation of
the present Free-Trade-T
During the months of August to
November, 1914, inclusive, there has
been waged throughout Europe the
most dreadful war in all history, re-
sulting in untold suffering and the ap-
palling slaughter of human beings.
For this four-months' period the I'm
derwood Free-Trade-Tariff law of
1913 continued in full force and eff
feet, and whatever evil consequences it
drought upon the american farmer,
manufacturer or producer, the Free
Trade party wants the American peo-
pie to believe that the European war
and not the Democratic Free-Trade
Tariff policy. is the cause of crippled
American industry. lost employment,
and general stagnation of business.
The effects of the Free-Trade policy
of the Underwood Tariff of 1913, for
a period of four months before and
four months during the European war,
as compared with the corresponding
periods under the Republican Pro-
lection policy of the Payne-Aldrich
Tariff law of 1909, and the effect of the
European war upon our international
commerce, are set forth in the fol-
lowing analysis, obtained from the

creased $24, o46,664 from those of
March, 1914, and continued to decline
monthly until one month after war
broke out. In August, 1914, the first
months of the war our export trade,
clined $43,77l, 453 from the preceding
month. In the second month of the

DenIores Church Trouble.

Writing to the Baltimore Sun, DR..
Zechia Judd has the following in the
Thursday edition of that paper:
ITO the Editor of The Sun-Sir: l
disagree in toto with the complaint
of your correspondent, Mr.. Wheatley,
that your editorial attention is most
unwisely distributed in matter of
church news. If it be the function of
the newspaper to publish significant
happenings and to discover the forces
of life, / think the situation developed
at Annapolis is of far more value than
a dozen CONSIDERATIONS.
Eat best a conservation is matter
of routine in the life of the church,
while the issue at Annapolis touches
1t is deplorable that a man whose an
cestors have been so long part of
Maryland, whose training has been so
real, whose spiritual conservation to
his priesthood has been so profound
whose pastorate has been the very
gate of heaven to so many, after TWEEN
ty years of faithful ministrations as
assistant and rector, should have no
value beyond the estimation that if a
minority of his church disagree on the
etiquette of his worship he is to be
cast aside and the church must look
about for a new man, without disqual-
ifications, of course, but also necessa-
rily without qualifications.
81 repeat, sir, estimated in the light
of its importance in the developing life
of the Church of God, il is the most
terribly significant occurrence for
years. The church. from the high
priest before the altar to the lowliest
servitor in its courts. should fail to
kneel in humble fasting and prayer to
discover what these things mean.

1t is stated in well-informed chan
nels that business enough has been
booked in the United States already
to carry good times through 1885,
without regard to what happens. And
it must be remembered that the great
commercial interests of the country
especially the railroads-have been
keeping expenditures down 50 closely
during the lean years that they must
soon enter the market for long defer
red supplies. and some of them are
already doing so. Also it has been
history that when the railroads are
prosperous and buying, the whole
populace is likely also to enjoy good
points TO a progressive increase in
prosperity in the United States. and
there is no reason to believe it will
not last at least as long as the tradi-
tional seven years

Winston Churchill- one of the most
picturesque figures in the British cab
met. has resigned his position, and
will take his place at the battle front
in France. AS first lord of the British
admiralty blame has been heaped upon
Churchills head for the Antwerp ex-
petition, for the naval attack on the
Dardanelles and the failure to take adj
eduate measures to safeguard against
submarine warfare In these matters,
Churchill's errors were errors jim
which the entire British people should
share the blame Had the Darda-
nelles episode been a success, had the
Turkish forts been destroyed, and a
passage forced, Constantinople and
the gate to the Black Sea would have
been in England's possession. Unfor-
tunately for England it failed, and the
general public was as quick to cen
sure failure as il would have been to
meet praise. But ChurchilPs great
fault was loquacity. and above all else
a cabinet minister must be able to
curb his tongue. His action in going
to the front is one of the finest things
in the present war

There is altogether too much of
tendency in modern years TO pervert
the use of colleges. There is alto
gether too much half-baked philos-
ophy in them. And the disallusion-
ment which awaits student after
four years of visionary browsing
among the realms of economic ideal
ism does neither the student nor the
community any good. DR.. Bueler, head
of Columbia University, censures the
efforts of those who seek to divert the
normal functions OF college life. Po-
litical economics and social themes
should be allowed the fullest discus
sion in the college forum and in the
debating classes. But most students
go to college for very practical nur-
pose-to fit themselves for a profes-
sional career. To inject controyer-
sial objects into the classroom is to
lessen his efficiency along the psrtic-
ular line of endeavor which he has
elected as his lifework.
