Denominated as Unjust.

We all know just how unjust that
is. and what excellent motives inspire
senators and representatives in seek ing
legislation of that character. The
armor plant question is one of the
greatest Importance. oppose II. not
only because OF the money which
would be largely wasted. but because
the adoption of the measure would be
extremely likely to paralyZe for time
the construction Of great armored YES
sells.
Senator Lodge asserted that the gov
eminent navy yards and ammunition
factories were desirable because they
did not destroy the private manufac-
turers. The government. however, con-
stituted the sole customer of the ARM
plate makers. he said. and govern
ment factory would at once put the
private industries out of business and
would destroy the elasticity of pro-
duction essential to the manufacture
of war materials.

business of a couple of millions a
year, and much of this is business
that would otherwise go outside the
state. Several large corn dealers
who used to import all their
stock are now getting it from South Car
DINA farmers. who place their offerings
with the commissioner. A number of
little grist mills that could not otherwise
exist are getting all the corn they can
grind from the same source. Most well
come of all is the stream of cash which
this unique market has turned toward the
woman on the farm. If she has butter
or eggs or preserves to sell. be her prod
uct ever SO small, she can have it listed
in five newspapers without cent of cost
to herself. and she can almost surely
make a sale or a trade.
How is the thing done? Well. to be-
gin at the beginning. there is the re-
markable personality of Col. Watson,
a man of unusual inventive ability and
one who lives for his work. He made
q special study of the movement for
cooperative trading among farmers
which is sweeping the country and ar
rived at the conclusion that the reason
most of them had no wide success was
that they failed to appeal to Bill

Compares Two Propositions.

The plant proposed by the War and
Navy departments and by the Secretary
of the Navy proposed a capacity of
10000 tons a year., he said. The bill
reported by the committee is more in
telligent than that because it contem-
plates the manufacture of 10000 tons
q year. We must make up our minds
if we build a plant. we must build one
large enough to supply all our needs.
Enlargement will be impossible If war
comes. and there will be no private
nanufac urers.
Estimates Of the government of the
cost to produce armor plate were en-
tirely misleading, Senator Lodge de-
clared, because they were made with
out consideration of administratio
taxation, insurance. interest, deprecia-
ton and other charges.
The senator also read letter from
an expert. no longer in the industry.
to show that the manufacture of armor
plate was intricate and costly. How
idle. then said the speaker, ito accept
the assertions of these technical. naval
experts. who have never manufactured
piece of plate in their lives. that it is
simple, inexpensive process.
