And. in view of what has been thus

ALWAYS READY
BY Wing DinEer

I've noticed that those people
Who have been very quick
At Nature and her weather
To fume and fuss and kick,
Some with a growl or grumble,
While others sigh or sob
Are always ready. brother.
For corn upon the cob.
You'll see 'em in the market
With baskets on their arms
Filled with green vegetables
Fresh from the nearby farms.
But when we're having weather
That makes things grow, you bet
About these good things. brother,
The kickers do forget.
I wonder what would happen
If they just had their way
With weather just to suit them
In every way each day.
And farmers brought no produce.
So fresh and green to SELL
oh, gee, but wouldn't they, bo.

DYE AND THE TARIFF

TIME extent to which American
manufacture is affected by the
Democratic tariff regulations is
illustrated by the appeal Of the hosiery
manufacturers of the country to the
federal government for adequate tariff
legislation to guarantee protection tc
the infant dyestuft industry. In a re-
cent convention attended by stocking
and underwear makers of the United
States these resolutions were adopted
which set forth clearly the position o.
the manufacturers and the urgency oi
their requests:
Whereas. the hosiery and knit
goods manufacturers. in common
with nearly all other branches OF
the textile industry of this coun-
try, are suffering severely because
they are unable to obtain dyestuhs
which have heretofore been I'M
ported;
And, whereas, it is entirely feas-
ible and practicable to manufacture
said dyestuffs in this country: and
whereas, American capitalists stand
ready to furnish capital for the
production of such dyestufs, pro-
vided sufficient protection. is af-
forded to guarantee that their in
vestment will not be wiped out by
foreign competition after the de-
termination of the European. war;
And, whereas. the need of dye
stuffs in said industries is becom-
ing more serious and acute; there
fore, be IL resolved.
That we. the officers. board Of d.
rectors and advisory board of. the
National Association of Hosiery
and Underwear Manufacturers, at a
special meeting held in Philadel-
phia July 1913. 1915. place our
selves on record as favoring the
prompt enactment of new tariff
regulations or proper changes in
the present tariff guaranteeing ade-
Quate protection TO persons, firms
or corporations contemplating, or
who may be induced to develop the
American dyestuff industry.

PEACE AS RESULT OF WAR

MUCH has been written ana Saio
Nl about the financial and COM
mercial. and even about the
political, effects upon this country oi
the great war in Europe. but too little
attention has been paid in public dis
cussion to the vastly more important
because more permanent, spiritual
effect. This probably is due not sc
much to the lack of thought about this
aspect of the world convulsion as to
the fact that those who are interested
in the material bearings have reader
access to newspapers and other chan
nels of publicity.
Now and then. however, the more
thoughtful are reminded that II means
more to US than munition contracts
larger expenditures for national de-
fenses and extension of markets lor
goods of American manufacture. And
nothing of this character has been
superior in c '-ity Of statement and
breadth of vision than a letter written
to the New York Times by the Rev. Dr.
Charles A. Eaton. pastor of Madison
Avenue Baptist Church of New York.
the last two paragraphs of which are
as follows;
This is the hour of destiny for. our
nation. equally with the nsuons
now at war. We have taken our
stand for the principles of human
fly. We could not have done other
wise without treason to our past.
And we know what We mean when
we speak OF principles of human;
ity. We mean the obedience OF all
nations, including ourselves. to such
International law as civilization mas
already achieved; fair obedience OF
those rules which the nations have
have agreed upon as distinguishing
civilized from unciviliZed warfare,
and, above all. constant ana strict
regard for the sacredness OF human
rights and human life.
For these principles we ought to
stand at any costneTen tnat ,o or
us to be defeated in defending them
than to live in ignoble peace de-
nying them. When the war Is over
we shall be living in new world,
all departments of life-individua,'
social. national, and international.
relationship among. the nations
amounting practically TO a 1edera,
ton. The supreme sovereignty Will
pass from the State to the race, ana
will find its sanction not in brute
force, but in the moral sense of
mankind International leadership
will pass to the people whose char
acter and intelligence shall COM
mand the confidence of the world,
rather than TO those nations most
expert in terrorism. America is
now making the place which she
must hold in the new adjustment.
The world is waiting for us to
demonstrate the reality Of our
moral foundations. II we believe in
those principles OF humanity whose
authority through our President
we have invoked. we must be ready
to make good our belief by sacri-
flee This and this alone will give
us a place of leadership in the new
age. for the world will believe in
America Just so far as America be-
lieves In herself.
