WAR SURPRISES AS
ECONOMY TEACHER

BERLIN, oct. 1G-The war as a
teacher Of economy is scoring new re-
suits from time TO time, even among
people already so economical as the
Germans. The newspapers are call
ing attention to the extraordinary In
crease this year in the cultivation Of
the common sunfowcr; 1t Is seen In
great quantities In the gardens in the
suburbs Of Berlin and other cities,
and along railways everywhere. In
previous years the only practical value
OF the plant was In feeding the seeds
to birds; but this year the seeds are
used TO make an OIL which Is pro-
ncunced equal 10 the best olive oil
for cooking purposes.
A writer is also pointing TO further
possibilities Of the pant. Tho ollcake
left after making oil. he says. Is an
excellent feed for animals. whereas,
the seeds themselves can be roasted
and used az a substitute for coffee.
The young roots and undevelOped
leaves can also be cooked and eaten
as a palatable substitute for spinach.

turning their thoughts toward dlscov-

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
LONDON, oct. 1.-THE new
budget with it's tariff innovations to
which the free traders acquiesced
quite Willingly at first, has developed
a strong opposition to further tariff
changes and even to some already
decided on. If any protective tariff
survives the war, it Will probably be
aimed only at certain luXuries and
some products which Germany had
succeeded in monopolizing before the
war.
The new tobacco M tea tax is
held up by the liberal organs as an
object lesson in the effects Of pro-
lection. There has always been a
duty tax on these articles simply as
= means Of raising revenue. Tea and
tobacco are both controlled by trusts.
In anticipation Of budget changes,
the tea and tobacco importers, who
always keep an immense stock on
hand, had been importing stocks to
last for years. With the first rumors
of the new budget they began to take
their goods out Of bond. This was
prevented to some extent by the arbi-
trary action Of the chancellor of the
e%xcheduer in the few days preceding
the announcement of the new budget.
Under the new budget the duty on
tea was increased 8 cents a pound

empire was founded by by the first
emperor, Jimmu TeuuO, $50 b. c., and
that the dynasty founded boy him has
continued ever since. 10 Is well known
that the Chinese imperial family is OF
Mauchu origiu. The Ching dynasty
was founded In 1914 by conquest. not
by succession. Upon the recent over
throw of the Mauchu dynasty it was
found very difficult TO find a Chinese,
however popular and able. who pos
sessed the legal right OF succeeding
u the throne. Jealousy and provin-
c.al feelings placed this suggestion
absolutely beyond discussion. Dis
agreements. friction and constant civil
vars would have ensued II any at
tempt has been made 20 establish a
Chinese dynasty. Another fact Is hat
a large majority OF the intelligent
people OF China were disguised with
the system Of monarchial government.
Thus it will be seen that for the sake
Of the peace and welfare OF the ma
ton there was no other course for
the people but TO take a long iumD
aud to establish the present republic.
The law Of evolution has been very
actively at work in China. and no
doubt 1t will be for her ultimate good,
and. therefore, for the benefit Of ali
mankind. China is now an infant re-
public, but she will grow into a
healthy and strong youth"

French corporal named Buguet, who

Difference of Opinion on
the General Situation
in Germany.
WOMEN ~BENEFITING
Only Certain Glasses Of
Labor Have Profited
Through the War.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press
BERLIN, oct, 16.-Labor statistl-
clans who have been watching the
situation closely and critically as the
months of war have passed, agree
with a fair degree OF unanimity on
the general effect Of the conflict on
wages, but disagree to some extent
on tho relation between the wages
paid today and the cost Of living as
to whether or not the workingman's
pay has increased as fast as prices of
f~oodstuffs have.
They agree that the men in the
war materials trade, and the women
foI that matter, today are receiving
90, 70 and ven 100 per cent more
than they ever did before. In most
cases the advance Is nearer to 100
per cent than so or 20, because there
is no limit to the amount OF work to
do, there Is unlimited opportunity for
overtime work. wages are higher than
usual and help scarce.
Depends Upon Work.
In other skilled trades that supply
ordinary needs-the printing and car
penter trade for instancc-the adj
vance, II Is agreed, is neither so great
nor so even. The printer Is making
from Jhree 10 rive MARKS a day more
than he used to; the carpenters gain
depends on how much work he has
tho strength or the inclination to do;
tho brewer Is getting an even ten
marks mor a week; the leather work.
er, like the carpenter, can be gagged
only by his capacity
The benefits accruing 20 the un-
skilled workers simply cannot be es-
timated because they are 50 variable
and so dependent upon employers

that these workers have been less ben

his opponents cleverly in the first two
and scoring knockouts in the others.

on all who have watched his ring work
