New light is shed

Recent events have shed new light
on the practice of selling American
products at one price at home and
at another price abroad A few
years ago there was much criticism
of somo manufacturing concerns
which. in order to keep men em-
p1oyed and factories running full
capacity. produced more goods than
the home market would absorb and
$50 the surplus abroad at re-
necessary in order to sell the goods
In competition with the foreign pro-
Queer. Now, 1t appears. the United
States Steel corporation is selling
much OF its product abroad at
higher prices than received at home.
In the former instance. as at pre-
sent. the foreign sales gave employ
-ment to American labor and furnish
ed a market for American material.
Formerly. the American manufac-
turer had to undersel his foreign
competitor in the foreign market.

Europe and Asia and Africa have
mingled their races in the building of
town which sits on the equaLor and
vet is cool. Nairobi, the capital of
British East Africa, is but name to
the outside world, but the witcnery
OF the name alone congers up man1
possibilities.
Back from a sultry coast, up into
the air for mile. away over the
rolling plains that stretch on to in
unity, Nairobi awaits. It was less tnan
two decades ago that the 5amaIIs. ma

pancy of this town in the shadow Of

Then came the Britisher and de-
ctded the railroad should pierce the
region He looked about for point
in this equatorial waste where he
might establish headquarters for the
operation of such road. He found
ut here among the clouds where tenn
peratures are never oppressive and
where blanket is often needed in
August or December To build his
road he conceived the idea OF using
other British subjects from Inoia,
that oyercrowded land to the emf
grants Of which all nations close their
doors. The Indians. anxious for ell
bow room, came gladly ana mere they
have planted a strong colony. The
Uganda railway was long ago finished
but the Indians have remained and
become the dominating influence oe

The houses are huddled together in

WAR Orders Stimulate.

Certain localities continue to re-
ceiye the stimulus of war orders.
Pittsburg's recent share OF con-
tracts aggregate $8O,000.000, viz
tually all for railway equipment.
Secretary Nordman of the Pittsburg
Foreign Trade Commission states
that he has turned over TO firms in
other cities several large orders for
munitions such as rides and cart
ridges. which are not manufactured
in the Ptttsburg district. A $685.
100000 contract for rifles, accoutre-
ments and ammunition is to be let
among Denver manufacturers pro-
yided they can handle such large
order. The NeWhouse mills in NeZ
York city have received contract
from the Italian government for
blankets, the majority of them to
be eight and one-half pounds weight,
100000 toIbe delivered in October.
The American Wcolen Company has
also received large order for blank
cts from the same government Or
ders such as this account largely for
the high prices Of wool. Efforts of
Of the allies to place $29,5O0,0OO
order for picric acid in st. Louis
have failed because of inability of
manufacturers there to supply such
a demand, but several of the st.
Loulsians are contemplating the es-
tablishment of picric acid plant
in New Jersey. Pfcric acid sells at
$3.50 a pound, an advance Of one
dollar since the war.
Some practitioners administer the
strong stimulants to their patients in
the belief that the artificial strength
thus derived will enable them to tide
over a crisis. 1t is hoped that war
orders will act in like manner on
our national industries, that they
may pass through the crisis of a
Democratic administration.
