"New Freedom" is for Foreigner

1t was recently heralded abroad with
much display, as noting a return of
prosperity to this country and a re-
vival of the steel industry in particu-
lar, that the Illinois Central railroad
had decided to give an order for 3d.
600 tons of steel rails. 1t was of
course assumed that this would mean
the starting of some of the idle mills
in this country and work for some of
the idle men in this country. Now a
different story is told.
Under the present tariff, which was
to sharpen the wits Of American man
ufacturers and inaugurate a new free
dom in this country, Canada comes
along and underbids the American
makers of steel rails and takes the
Illinois Central's order The rails will
be made in Canada to furnish en-
ployment to the idle men OF that coun-
try, leaving American mills to con-
tinue in idleness and American steel
workers and their families to con-
tinue hungry. The story of this trans
action, as told in the market reports
of the Chicago Tribune, follows:
That the Canadian steel mills have
definitely entered the markets of the
United States, is emphasized by the
success of the Algoma Steel Corpora
ton of Sault St. Marie, Ont, in Sc
curing an order for $4,000 tons of 90
pound open-hearth rails from the IL
linois Central railroad in a competitive
market. In addition, orders aggregat-

The Cripples of War

The fighting countries are facing a
big problem of wars aftermath
what to do with the manned human
beings whose number multiplies with
every day.
More tragic even that the rows of
graves marked by rough crosses on
Europe's battlefields are the armies Of
the blind and halt returning to their
homelands. Strong men they went
out, with all the ambitions and all
the hope that strength gives; they are
going back to face life handicapped
by physical disabilities that even cour-
age cannot wholly overcome.
At Heidelberg a school has been
opened for one-armed men. There are
thirty-five enrolled from the Nine
teenth Army Corps, and a long list
of applicants for whom no provision
has yet been made. In Regents Park,
London, Mr.. Otto Kahn, the American
banker, has turned over his home for
the use of blind soldiers, and already
fifty from the army of Gen. French,
including three officers, have accepted
his hospitality. instruction is being
given these men in occupations that
may enable them to avoid dependence.
These are but instances that illus
trate the nature and the bigness of
the problem. What sorry comment
on our civilization are these pitiful
efforts to patch up the human wreck

GOVERNOR EXPECTS TO COM
PLETE SIGNING AND VETO
ING BILLS TODAY
Long Appropriation Measures and
Those for State Institutions Yet
on Deck

Denver, April 1S.-GOvernor Carl
son expects to complete the work Of
signing and vetoing the appropriation
bills tomorrow There yet remain on
bis desk the long appropriation bill
and the appropriations for the various
state institutions lie expects to re-
duce them about $125,OOO The prin-
cipal part of this sum will be taken
out of the general appropriation bill.
He will abolish the state humane So
ciety entirely insofar as it will be n
pay institution and the appropriation
for the state board of charities and
corrections and the state board Of
pardons so that simply clerk for the
pardon board will be retained. Other
boards will share a similar fate.
In addition to the appropriation bills
the governor has a number of meas
ures yet under consideration. Among
them is the one authorizing a state
song. There We're half a dozen Colo
RADIO songs presented to the assembly.
The one selected was where the Col
umbine Grows. The governor took
the song out to his house today and
made everybody who came in try to
sing it. The indications tonight are
that he will veto it. He said that Milli-
ken, his private secretary, sang it the
"rottenest," that John Vivian was a
close second, jackson, his colored mes
senger, tried it, but said it wasn't
written for an artistic colored voice.
The governor finally became disgusted
and started to sing it himself, but
the family dog started to howl and
he decided to veto it.

ing 1900 tons also have been placed
by the Hooking Valley, Toledo and
Ohio Central, and the Pere Marquette
roads. A campaign is being pushed in
this country by the Canadian interests
and bids have been entered or are
contemplated in a large number of
prospective orders.
The Algoma Corporation is cutting
the standard price of steel rails main
tanned by the steel mills of the United
States without a break since 1901 by
SO a ton, making an estimated saving
in the case of the Illinois Central or
der of $l75000, the character of the
specifications considered. The open
hearth rail quotation offered by the
Canadian mills is S27 a ton, as COM
pared with the $50 a ton bid of the
United States mills. Under the new
tariff law the Canadian rails come
into the United States free of duty.
The action of the Illinois Central
has another Significance in that the
order is given to u mill not located
on the lines of the purchasing road
whereas in the past traffic considera-
tions have been credited with influenc-
ing railroad purchases.
The rails will be rolled under the
specifications of the American Rail
way Engineering association with the
inclusion of the mick and break" test
for every ingot, the acceptance of
which the railroads have unsuccessful
ly contended for the past few years.
The manufacturers have opposed the
test under the objections that the out
put of the mills would be decreased,
and the cost of manufacture increas-
ed.
While the mills of the United States
have stated that they have to add a
increase if they bid under
the mick and break" test, no definite
quotation has yet been given. How
ever, it is estimated by the railroads
that the Algoma price quoted is at
least S5 ton below the figure any
American mill would have quoted with
the inclusion of this specification
