A Community Club

The lecture by Nels Darling, the
Oklahoma booster, at the Chautauqua
Thursday night told the cities of Grays
Harbor a few things that should be
remembered, the chief Of which was
that we waste entirely too much ef.
fort in a petty rivalry that should have
ceased with the real estate boom Of
1sS9.9O.
His suggestion that we form Com.
munity Club. with capable secretary
on salary. to 60 out after investors
and industries such as our natural
advantages justify, is worthy Of deep
consideration and quick action. Aber-
deem, Hoquiam and Cosmopolis have
got beyond the point Of rivalry. ex-
cept the healthful competition In bust
ness: have reached position where a
benefit or injury to one affects all
three in a greater or less degree. II
the Chautauqua will have caused the
Harbor cities to see this point, so
obvious to the stranger. it will prove
the most profitable investment Grays
Harbor ever made.

Americas Present Sentiment

Three great sentiments, let US re-
peat, swept across the United States
in June First, we prize our blessings
of peace and we will not fool about
the fringes of Europe's War. nor will
we be drawn by any untoward incl
dent or process of logic into Euro
pean mid-continental contest for SUI
premacy that is not ours to decide.
Second, in an age like this we can
not afford to jeopardize our supreme
right to live at peace, by being un-
prepared for self-defense. Third, all
the peoples of Europe are akin to us,
our civilization, is derived from theirs
in great part, and we must strive to
help them find basis for peace. To
that end; we as citizens and as
neutrals should do nothing that would
put us in a false position or impair
our national usefulness or influence in
the great cause of world harmony

pie Of large means who will keep them
as reserve resources against any pos
sibility Of disaster
While the offerings will be large, It
must be kept in mind that the coun.
try's absorptive powers are great. Vast
sums Of idle capital are waiting to
pick up bargains and take shrewd ad.
vantage Of European necessities. In
this there will be nothing unjust or I'm.
ethical. The conditions are Of Eu'
ropes making, not ours. Europe's war,
by demoralizing our industries and
commerce. has reduced the earning
capacity Of American railroads and de.
pressed the prices Of their securities.
II European holders choose further to
depress them with excessive offerings
that will be their misfortune and our
eventual gain.

The educational effects Of tour III
Europe will not be missed now that
the great show ON the continent Is cut
out Of the annual program for Ameri-
cans. Said effects were largely over
rated by Industrious press agents Of
steamship companies and tour promot-
ers. Time was when the continent d.
rectly contributed to culture on this
side Of the water. That was before
the days Of great universities here.
and almost every wideawake commun-
ity had a representative in some for.

there for two or more, years. Living
was cheap. and the growing man could

state board Of equalization, says an
Olympia dispatch. With the three state
tax commissioners comprising a ma
jority Of the board in 1918, the request
of the railroads for sweeping horizon
tai reductions was denied. The courts
later upheld the valuations placed by
the tax commission and the board Of
equalization. The tax commissioners
continued as majority Of the board in
1914 and no concerted attempt was
made by the railroads to obtain reduc-
lions.
The recent legislature removed the
members of the tax commission from
the board of equalization, and with
the personnel thus changed, the rail-
roads have made plans for renewal of
their attempt to secure lower taxes.
Agents Of the railroads have been at
work in the various counties for
months.

Trade In War Munitions.

Supplying means of murder to any
belligerent nation is not altogether a
lovely proceeding, but neither is war.
The protest of Germany against such
shipments from the United States can
scarcely mean anything further than
a chance to bubble over the position
taken by this nation concerning the
freedom of the high seas to citizens
of the United States while engaged in
lawful callings.
International laws have always per-
mitted neutral nations to supply mum.
lions to belligerents, and the products
of the Krupp works may be found in
all quarters of the globe, most Of them
supplied while war was raging. 1t
now happens that Germany would ben
eft IL the United States would prohibit
such shipments, but compliance with
the German demand would be breach
of neutrality with the allies.
This nation desires above all things
to remain absolutely neutral In this
European war, and to do so must ad-
here strictly to the international laws.
To vary a hairs breadth to the benefit
Of either combatant from those laws
would be an act Of Immortality toward
the other. Those laws were enacted
by the United States and all the war.
ring powers, and smust be observed
rigidly by all neutral countries until
they are revoked or amended by the
enacting nations.

While praising Vanderbilt for saving
children on the Lusitania 1t Is well to
remember that Overpraise is reflec-

United States Reckoning Securities.

Proof that Europe begins to feel
acutely the financial stress of the war
is noted in its growing tendency to
market its American securities on the
New York stock exchange. This de-
presses bonds and stocks and under
that pressure 1t Is conceivable that
prices may sag to new low levels.
While the immediate effect will be
distressing to individuals, the sale OF
these securities by their European
owners will be factor of ultimate ma.
tional gain. The country is paying OF
foreign held debts, at time when IL
has extraordinary cash reserves, and
at prices which make the transactions
immensely profitable to US. Europe
bought our securities at high levels
not from choice, but Of necessity.
The extent of this movement no man
can measure, but data recently gath
cred by President L. F. Loree Of the
Delaware & Hudson company and an
assisting committee reveal its great
potentialities. or the first time in our
financ'e' '''-'e-- ve have approximate
ly definite knowledge Of the volume
Of American railroad securities held
abroad.
In response to requests sent to las
railroad companies. being all the rail
roads in the United States above 100
miles in length. replies were received
from 1876 companies. Nine companies
have not yet replied. but as their az
gregate mileage is only 1925 they can
not materially affect the result.
These show a grand total Of rail.
road securities held abroad Of $2.576..
401, 1902. As the financial stress in.
creases it seems probable that large
volume Of these securities will be
thrown by European holders on the
American markets. 1t seems probable,
though, that the offerings will not
come in flood, but will be distrib-
uted over an extended period. and
great part. Of the holdings will be held
abroad, to the last day Of the war.
Many Of these securities are held in
Great Britain By life and fire insurs

Congress in May Of 1914 definitely
established the farmers county agent
as q factor in q national system Of
agricultural extension. He engages
chiefly in two fields Of activity. He
studies and investigates. He renders
direct personal service to individual
farmers.
The agent goes into the country, not
as an expert who knows the whole of
farming science and art, but as the
trained man endeavoring to assist the
farmer in obtaining more profitable
returns from farming. He studies the
local conditions. He collects and dis
tributes the required information. He
brings technical knowledge. He
makes available the help of the COL
lege and the department of agriculture
that farmers in the past have insuffic-
iently utilized. He acquaints the
farmers with what they themselves
are doing.
The personal help to individual
farmers consists in demonstrations of
soil cultivation and reclamation,
control of diseases of animal and
plants. improvement Of crops. The

counties, plans must be developed for

ably the most important part of the
county agents work lies in developing
better business methods in operating
farms. AS conducted now, American
farming is improbable business. Many
farmers fail to make even per cent
annually upon their investment.

The National Civic federation in
cludes q committee on the division Of
the peoples income which was in
trusted with the grave duty of scien
tifically and impartially investigating
the division Of the product Of labor

of John B. Clark, professor Of political

and these gentlemen gave exhaustive
examination to all ascertainable fac
tors in the problem.
As the result Of prolonged investi
cation 1t 10 found that there exists
no foundation in fact for the claim
that American labor receives only q
fifth, American capital four.fifths, Of
the annual output Of industry. The
truth IL almost the opposite Of that
proposition. The committee came to
the conclusion that I'm general. after
miscellaneous expenses and the cost
of materials or supplies are deducted
the net earnings in industry are d.

wages and one-third for interest, prof

Capital, without allowing for deprecia.
ton, receives only half of the share
of the product that labor receives.
The trap into which many of those
fell who argued from the statistics
of the 1900 census was the hasty and
fallacious assumption that "the gross
product" of manufacturing measures
the wealth produced or forms its
equivalent. Labor did not produce
$2420 Of value at which that census
valued the per capita or per worker
product when completed. The cost
of the materials used, which must be
charged to labor and deducted from
the gross product, was 1895. The
difference Of $1025 between 1920 and
1895 represents the net or real value
that labor produced in manufacturing.

true product in manufacturing indus.

must meet the miscellaneous expenses
and the cost Of labor itself before cap

Deducting those miscellaneous ex-
penses there remained in 1909 fund
Of $3.50 per employee to be divided be.
tween capital and labor. OF this sum
$500, or 66.4 pr cent, went to labor
and $299. or 1875 per cent, to capital.
Nor is even the less sum pure profit

to capital as its interest and profits.
Capitals part in interest and profits
is only three-tenths of labor's part.
