BRITAIN LIKELY TO ADOPT
HIGH TARIFF AFTER WAR
American Manufacturers May Have
to Erect Plants in England to
Retain Position in Market.

NEW YORK, November 14.-If Amerf.
can manufacturers desire to retain
their position in English markets aft.
er the war they may be under the me-
cessity Of building plants in England
in the opinion of Pierce c. Williams
United States commercial attache al
London. who is comforting with busi-
ness men here at the bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce.
"All indications are that q protec-
tive tariff will be in effect in the
United Kingdom after the war;" de-
clared Mr.. Williams. Sentiment in IA
vor of high tariff is growing all the
time in England and has the backing OF
influential interests. British labor
seems rather favorably impressed with
the idea of tariff wall. the argument
being that such a measure will lessen
competition and very likely tend to
maintain higher wages.
Should high tariff be enacted in
England it's probable effect would be to
curtail the sale Of American manufac-
tured articles in that country. 1t would
even seem that in certain lines Ameri-
can manufacturers might find IL desir-
able to establish plants in England in
order to better meet British and for
eign competition there. An alterna- =
tive might be to build American plants
in Canada or enlarge existing ones in
order to get into the English market
on favorable terms"

GEN. SIR SAM HUGHES QUITS
CANADIAN CABINET POST
His Resignation - Minister Of
Militia and Defense Requested
by Government.

OTTAWA. November 14.-Gen. Sir
Sam Hughes has resigned ~ Canadian
minister Of militia and defense. His
resignation was requested.
No new minister Of militia and de-
fense has been appointed to succeed
Gen. Hughes. Premier Borden, aided
by F. B. McCurdy. secretary to the
minister of militia and defense. will
administer the militia department..
The formal announcement by the gov
ernment Of Gen. Hughes resignation
reads. in part:
The retirement of Sir Sam Hughes
is in part the outcome Of the estab-
lishment by the minister of overseas
forces and In part is due to assumption
by Sir Sam Of powers which. in the
Judgment Of the prime minister. can
as whole. 1t is anticipated that the
correspondence which brought about the
request for the minister's resignation will
be made public Immediately. It must
first be submitted to the governor gen.
eral"
Concerning his resignation. Gen.
Hughes said in part:
ut is true have resigned. but not
for the reasons assigned In the report
given out this afternoon. Accompany
Ing my resignation was a report to the
prime minister, asking that all the cor
respondence in connection with the affair
might be published promptly. 1 would
like to say that 1 feel quite happy. A
great load is off my back.
II conceive it my duty to give every
assistance I can still to help in the
cause"
The break between Gen. Hughes and
Premier Borden and other members of
the Canadian government resulted from
differences over questions of policy and
details Of administration.

Refused Lists of Unemployed.

Under the pretext of the necessity
TO carry out public works on Belgian
soil, the occupying power had tried to
obtain from the communes lists of un-
employed workmen, which the majority
of communes proudly refused to give.
Three DEGREES of the governor gem
eral paved the way for the blow which
was struck us today. The first, issued
August -. 1915, ordered forced labor
for the unemployed under pain of i'm
prisonment and a fine. but it stated
that it was only question of work in
Belgium. The second, issued May 2,
gives the German authorities the right
TO provide work for the unemployed,
any unauthorized person giving work
being liable to three years imprison-
ment and fine of 10000 marks. The
third decree. issued May 13. authorized
the governors and military command
ers to issue orders for the unemployed
to be forcibly taken to places for work.
1t was already a matter of forced
labor for Belgium. Today it is no
longer a question of forced labor in
Belgium. but in Germany for the Ger
mans benefit.

Cover For Action.

AT first the Germans tried to give
their measures an air of plausibility by
alleging that the unemployed people in
Belgium were dangerous to public or
der and burden to official charity.
replied to Gov. Won Kissing that he
himself knew we'll that public order
was in no way endangered and that
the unemployed made no demands on
official charity.
in his answer Won Bissing aban-
doned his previous argument and al
legged that. first. the mere fact of wide
spread unemployment tends to burden
finances, and. second. prolongation Of
unemployment will result in the work
ers losing their technical skill.
ITO this ] replied: There are other
ways of protecting Belgian finances: for
example, spare US the war levies which
have reached total of milliard OF
francs and continue at the rate of 40
900 900 francs monthly; also spare us
requisition in kind which have already
totaIed several niliards and are COM
pIetely exha usting us. There are other
ways for maintaining the professional
skin Of workmen. Belgian industry could
have been allowed TO keep its machines
accessories. raw material and manufac-
tured products. which have been trans
ferred to GERMANY

PROSPEROUS PRISONERS

PROSPEROUS PRISONERS
In Dayton, city which has
lately formed the habit Of choos-
ing its municipal officers on is
sues unrelated to the tariff and
Philippine independence, a plan
for making workhouse sentences
really correctional has been de-
vised. When a man is sentenced
to the worhouse he is told that
if he conducts himself with rea-
sonable decency, he will be turned
over to the municipal parole
board. In time the prioners
sentenced for long terms gener-
ally find it desirable to attract
the attention of this board The
board finds out what the prison
err can do and looks for a job for
him. The prisoner then goes
TO work i'm the morning as if he
still lived at home. I'm the even
ing he comes back TO the work
house. On Saturday night, he
brings his pay envelope, scaled,
to- the superintendent of the work
house, who opens it i'm The pres
ence of members of the prison
ers family and distributes the
money as he sees ft
In cases Of nonsupport this
scheme is said To work very well.
one prisoner now serving sem
tcnce ON this charge has taken
care of his family. paid his press
ing debts and save 500, and he
has two months yet to serve. But
this is less important than that
under the Dayton system he has
been taught that by forming reg
lular habits he can take care of
his family and at the same time
put by a little money for times
of adversely. Upon leaving the
average workhouse the prisoner
has little more 10 show for his
time than a pile of little stones
HAT he has made from big stones
and an uncomfortable feeling
that during his incarceration his
family has been piling up debts
that he will be long time settl-
ing. No one pretends thai
pounding stone does a prisoner
any good For that matter
there are few who believe that inn
prisonment does the convict an,
good, but it is sociely's only sue
cessful method of preserving or
der.
The parole system which APP
plies to prisoners i'm state pena
institutions is successful. The
prisoner who really manifests q
desire to resume his position a.
a free man under certain re-
slrictions is pretty sure to get his
chance. The penal farm has
likewise proved to be a good in
strument for bringing a certain
class of offenders back to a sane
. view of the responsibilities OF
, life. The suspended sentenc'
expedient is all right as far as
goes, and the machinery of tn
