Democracy and
Prohibition.

The trend OF recent events go to
show that prohibition will be a
national issue in the near future.
The Hobson bill, and the passage
OF "dry laws" in SO many states.
and the active propaganda now
abroad are all signs of the times.
The prediction has been made
that the Democratic Party will
put plank favoring national
prohibition in its next platform
tor the moral support it would
receive from such a movement.
Political expediency may force
the issue.

Many Heads Better
Than One.

Secretary of the Navy Daniels
has announced the adoption OF
AN inovation in the Navy, which
IS regarded as great step to-
ward a more efficient strategical
operation OF the fleet. and better
preparation of the navy for war.
heretofore the war gaines have
been prepared by the commander
in.chIef of the feet and his staff:
that is. the element which had to
carry out the strategical exercises
was required to map out its own
work. Orders just signed by
Secretary Daniels give approval
to war game plans prepared con.
Jointly by the general board OF
the Navy. the Nav al War College
aud recommended by the aid for
operations. For the first time
therefore. the war game plans
are the result of co ordination
OF the various elements of the
navy. What is considered the
greatest advantage is that there
will be built up a body of officers
who will be dong in time of peace
Just what some one in the navy
would have to do III case the
United States were at war.

Tariff Blunder.

the classic blunders of the present
administration is now before the
Court of Customs Appeals and a
decision is looked for at an early
date.
The Court is expected to inter-
pref the meaning OF the provision
in the Underwood Tariff bill pro-
posing to give a FIVE per cent dis
count III customs duties on mer-
chandise imported in American
vessels. Thus far that clause has
failed in it's purpose, just as the
tariff measure of which it is part
tailed to provide adequate reverue
Enacted October 13, 1913, it
failed on its first test, and that
test applied. too. by the then at
torney general less than 80 days
after the bill was signed.
No sooner had the tariff bill
been presented to the Secretary
OF the Treasury for administrat-
ion than a doubt arose in his
mind as to the validity of the FIVE
per cent discount provision. He
appealed for advice to Attorney
General McReynolds. who is now
on the Supreme Court bench.
The provision was pronounced
imperative.
The hve per cent discount to
American vessels cannot be given
is the language OF the ATTORNEY
General quoted by the Secretary,
without impa,ring the stipu-
lations Of existing treaties be-
tween the United States and var
ious other powers. and con-
sequently the subsection is in
operative.
Acting on this opinion the Sec.
rstarx ot ths u Ireesury issued an
order to customs c0lIet Tors. in
structing them to make no allow
ance OF discounts on duties under
this provision.
importers who had relied on
the law appealed to the Board OF
General Appraisers. Their ruling
resulted in further confusion. and
neither side being satisfied, the
case was taken to the Court of
Customs Appeals, more than a
year after the law had passed.
The Democratic Committee re.
port on the five per cent provis-
ion defined it as "a discriminate
ion in favor of American shipping
designed to build up our merch-
ant marine and keek at home
millions of dollars now being
paid to foreign vessels to carry
our products TO foreign markets.
Yet although they fully realized
the tremendous Importance OF
this measure which they said in
volved millions OF dollars, they
lacked the foresight to consult
their own Attorney General as to
the possibility of enacting it into
law. They had a vague idea Of
what they wanted. adopted a
vague method OF trying to secure
1t. end by careless guess work
threw the whole matter into the
courts.
During the debate in Congress
on this provision. Republican
members repeatedly warned the
Democrats that, quite apart from
it's policy, it's phraseology was
meaningless and should be cor
recteu TO become effective.
1T was so much breath wasted.
The majority stubbornly refused
to accept either caution, suggest
ion or amendment. The result
has been that this very import
and clause has thus far proven
mere useless verbiage. except to
cause litigation and expense to
all concerned About the only
purpose it has served is to EN-.
phasize the fact that the inefi.
cient methods OF Democratic leg
islators have made it impossible
tor them to put even their own
ideas INTO effect.
