ANY business man knows what this
means.
1t is easy to understand, therefore,
why, in The Dallas News of the 15'h
inst. it was said that German-Ameri-
can bankers in New York are DIS
posed to favor joining in the propos
ed credits to the French and British
governments, even though such acton
looks like assisting against their fell
low-countrymen.
1t may be said that Geramany
willing to buy and pay cash, and that
the loss of trade to France and Eng
land could be Offset by the United
States demanding freedom of the
seas, and so making a market for her
commodities. Suppose this were done.
1t would Undoubtedly involve the Uni
ted States in the war on the side of
Germany, which would not meet the
approval of large number of United
States citizens. But, passing his
point, can it be supposed that there
would be an immediate end to the war
in such case, and how long would
Germany be able TO pay in cash for
commodities? 1t is unlikely that Ger
many could do so for more than a
very short period indeed, as it eau
hardly be contended that her credit
and gold supplies are equal to those
of England and France.
WouG Be World Bankruptcy
So the result would be the same,
and in the meantime there would be
an upsetal of finance in the United
States so great that all past paa'Cs
would fade into insignifiCance. Ger
man-Americans would suffer equally
with other citizens of he UniSei
States. In other words, the United
States would be involved in the world
bankruptcy.
Before the British embargo was in.
stituted last March, and at a time
when Germany was receiving large
amounts Of United States conmodi-
ties, exchange on Berlin was at a
| greater discount than on London.
What would it be if she had Access
| to the United States markets the
same as France and England? The
facts are that if she had access at he
present time to the United states
markets, the same that England and
France have, she would have to ask
for the same sort of credit thaj these
countries now ask for; she could not
pay in gold for all commodities any
more than they can.

FEDERAL INDUSTRIAL
COMMISSION
BY Peter Radford.

The recent investigation of the
United States Commission of Indus
trial Relations brought together the
extremes of society and has given the
public an opportunity to view the rep.
resentatives of distinct classes, side
by side, and to study their views in
parallel columns.
Capital and labor have always been
glazing at each other over CULTS of
Misunderstanding and if the Federal
Industrial Commission attempts to
bridge the chasm, it will render the
public distinct service.
The farmer has been sitting on the
fence watching capital and labor fight
for many years and incidentally furn-
ishing the sinews of war and it is
quite gratifying to find them talking
with, instead Of about, each other.
When honest men smile and look into
each others souls, 1t always makes
the world better and far more salts
factory to the farmer who in the end
bears the burden of conflict, than
resolutions, speeches or pamphlets
SAoi 6Oo anu COuutcT.
charges.
The love for justice makes the
whole world kin. Understanding is an
arbiter far more powerful than the
mandates of government, for there is
no authority quite so commanding as
an honest conscience; there is no de-
cree quite SO binding as that of the
Supreme Court of Common Sense and
no sheriff can keep the peace quite so
perfect as Understanding.
We suppose the time will never
come when capital and labor will not
be occasionally blinded by the light
ming flashes of avarice or frightened
by the thunder peals of discomfort.
But Understanding is a Prince of
Peace that ever holds out the olive
branch to men who want to do right.
A mans income is always a sacred
thing for in it are the hope, ambition
and opportunity of himself, and fam.
lily, but there is nothing in a human
heart quite so divine as Justice and
Understanding is its handmaiden.

THE BATTLE Of
THE TIRES

agricultural and Commercial Press serViceI
1t is interesting to watch the 1orces
of civilization battling for supremacy.
The struggle now going on between the
rubber and the iron tire promises 10
be the liveliest contest OF the IWen-
tieth Century.
The struggle is silent one ana
there are no war correspondents 10
write vivid descriptions of the con-
flict but the results are more far-
reaching to present and future gen.
erations than the war of Europe.
The rubber tire has been maneuver.
ing for point of attack for several
years and has captured few unlm-
portant positions in traffic, but 1t mas
now pitched a decisive battle with
it's iron competitor by hurting mil
lion "jitneys" at the street railways
and the battle is raging from ocean
to ocean. Upon the result OF the
struggle depends the future OF the
rubber tire. If it Is compelled to re-
treat, it's doom is sealed, but if 1t wins
the battle it will revolutionize the
If the rubber tire conquers the
street traffic it's next struggle Is with
the railroads of the country, and then
the greatest battle between economic
forces ever fought out on the face
of this earth is on, for iron is the I'M
disputed master in transportation, and
is fortified behind billions of dollars,
and millions of men.
Stephenson applied the steel tire
to an iron rail in 1914, but it was 1869
before the golden spike was driven
at Promontory Point, which bound
the country together with bands Of
steel. 1t took the iron tire fifty-five
years to creep from ocean to ocean,
but the rubber tire while warm from
the creative mind of the inventive
genius sped across the continent like
an arrow shot from the bow of Ulys-
ses. The roadbed was already pre-
pared and therein lies the power Of
government builds and maintains the
public highway.
But iron is a stubborn metal and
I it has mastered every wheel that
turns; has fought battles with every
element above and beneath the earth
and has never tasted the wormwood
of defeat, and when rubber hurls its
full force against this monarch OF
the Mineral Kingdom, it may rebound
to the factory stunned beyond recov'
cry.
The rubber tire first made it's ap
pearance on the bicycle, but it proved
frivolous servant and was dismissed
for incompetency. 1t has always beer
too much inclined to revel in luxury
to be taken seriously as utility ma
chine and its reputation Is not one tt
inspire confidence in heavy traffic
performance.
But to those who care to watt into
dreamland, it is enchanting to note
that there will be marvellous differ
ence between a rubber and an iroI
age. The rubber tire will scatter thu
cities throughout the valleys for will
transportation at every mans door
why city? 1t will traverse the con
tinent with net work of Macadan

THE CHRISTIAN
Great vitaaraph Drama Of Hall
Gaines Famous Drama

The attraction for Decoration Day,
(Monday) and the day following at
the Library theatre will be the Vita
graph company's production of Hall
Gaines superb love story THE Chris
tian" in eight parts and 500 scenes.
An all star cast of Vitagraph play
ers is headed by Edith Storey and
Earle Williams. More than 5000
people are seen in the picture, which
at once can be considered as the
best acting picture ever made, as
well as the most elaborate and care
full presentation of any photoplay
now before the public.
"The Christian" as novel was a
great success. Later, it was drama
tized and it brought fame and wealth
to Miss Viola Allen. Its present
form is its best, inasmuch as tine
talky dialogue of the novel and
drama have been eliminated and the
many scenes which were omitted in
the stage version, are utilized in the
'picturized version. 1t is a superb
production OF wonderful story, and
having been made by the justly cele-
brated Vitagraph company, who pro-
vided its best players and the mast
sumptuous production they could
conceive, it becomes photoplay
masterpiece.
Miss Edith Storey assumes the diff
ficult role of Glory Quayle, investing
it with youthful abandon and a ma
ture understanding seemingly i'm
possible to register on the screen.
Her work is marvellous, as evinced
by the widespread commentator
which her work has invariably re-
ceived. She is THE Bernhardt OF
