be passed it would put the President

would be to forfeit that support of

tural resources When ray materials
are exported we bring into the coun-
try considerable money, but at great
cost when we consider the drain on
our natural resources.
The United States produces 20 per
cent of the worlds copper, and exports
60 per cent of that. Before the war
about half of that went to Germany
which re-exported about half she re-
ceived from us in manufactured ar
ticles.
There is no tariff on copper, and
by manipulation of the copper mar
ket, American copper was bought de-
livered in foreign ports at about eight
mills less per pound than American
manufacturers paid for it delivered in
the industrial districts of the east.
Thus we deplete our natural re-
sources, that others may manufacture
our raw material into finished arti-
cles, and we give them an additional
advantage of lower material cost to
help them undersell us in foreign mar
kets.
Every effort should be made to dim
inish the expectation of material on
which the maximum of energy has not
been expended. A finished product
may be of hundred times as great
value as the material that entered in
to it. The difference between the val

BRINGING THE FARMS CLOSER TO
TOWN

Lewiston has assumed the RESPONSE
bility of providing a good highway up
the Lewiston hill, and removing the
present menace to traffic-the tortu-
Gus, steep, dangerous road of pioneer
days. In this step that city is displaying
mendable for it affords an instance of
a municipality directly associating it
self with outlying districts in good
roads construction
A few days ago a movement was in
augurated to put Lewiston into
good roads district with two districts
north of the river; and it seems from
the spirit in which the movement is
received by the Lewiston people, that
the plans will be carried out. Lewis
ton feels obligated to build this
Washington authorities have located
their state highway system SO that
it will reach Charleston from the west
and Uniontown from the north. The
Low lStOi Hill IOdu therefore becomes
a connecting link.
Such an enterprising movement on
the part of Lewiston, it would seem,
should be an inspiration to good roads
advocates throughout the entire coun-
try. Aside from this appreciation
from people elsewhere, Lewiston will
be directly and substantially benefited
by the outlay to be made. There is no !
question but that good highways lead
ing into the city are traffic developers, |
and Lewiston's position as a trade cen
ter for a considerable district will be
further strengthened by such move
ment. Neighboring cities will applaud
her in her attitude.
1t must be gratifying to the mem
bers of the good roads committee Of
the Moscow Chamber of Commerce to
find in other communities such APP
probation of the principle of commui-
ty development by the improving of
roads as is being shown in the
