Need OF Constructive Legislation.

Need OF Constructive Legislation.
Just before the European war broke
out we had a million skilled mechan-
les out Of work and nearly half mill
lion railroad men were idle, together
with nearly half a million freight cars.
The railroads were suffering from
lack of freight to carry to market, and
industry was gradually becoming
stagnant. In Louisiana two hundred
thousand acres of sugar land were
plowed up because Of Democratic
changes in the tariff law. It is gen.
orally conceded by all save the blind
that the country was not progressing.
Attempts were made to keep courage
up by the predictions made by Secre-
taries McAdoo and Redfield and Presi-
dent Wilson of the great trade booms
which we're soon to appear but which
failed to materialize until the outbreak

President Wilson will be notified Of
the Democratic nomination at Shadow

place for letting him know that he will
shortly have to give up his place in

Grover Cleveland was the last Dem

last President to issue bonds to secure

clamoring for several years for mod

COAL OUTPUT INcREAsEs.

The coal industry OF the United
States, which began the year 1915
under adverse conditions, improved
steadily during the summer and fall
in sympathy with the general better
ment of business, and In November
and December was in better position
as regards markets and prices than ct
any time since 1913, although in the
territory west of Ohio the improve
ment came too late to overbalance the
depression Of the earlier months.
The production OF bituminous coal
and anthracite in the United States In
1918 is estimated by G. e. Lesher, OF
the United States geological survey, at
$4,000, 900 short tons, an increase
over 1914 of less than per cent
Bituminous production increased about
$780, 900 tons, and the output of an
thracite was less than in 1914 by
about 100000 short tons. The in
crease in the output of soft coal was
not shared equally by all the fields, for
Ssports from 100 coal carrying rail

NEW YORK. Jan. 1.-THE British
are In a better position than the
Turks, in the struggle now proceeding
about Kut-El-Amara, because of their
more advantageous lines OF COM
munication. ......-
General Aylmer, who is marching to
the relief OF Kut-El-Amara has the
unobstructed use of the Tigris river
which runs to his base Of supplies in
the Persian gulf. The Turks on the
other hand, cannot move down the
.Tigris to attack the British reinforce
ments, because Kut-El-Amara being
itself on the Tigris, blocks the way.
Turkish guns and ammunition must
be moved over marshy land where diff
nculties are increased by heavy rains
now falling.
General Aylmer began his present
march for Kut-M-Amara on January 6
from Imam All Gherbi, about sixty
miles southeast Of Kut-El-Amara on
the Tigris. It is believed he has now
reached Sheikh Saed, half way to
Kut-El-Amara. The Turks, apparently,
have reached further than this point
to the Khor I-Suweki district. fulme-
diately north OF Kut-E-Amara. A

self, but to Offset this difficulty, he
can transport his guns and supplies
without serious trouble along the Tt
girls. The Turks must move out OF
their dry base to attack him and once
they do SO, communication problems
will begin to hamper them.
By a direct march across country,
General Aylmer is within twenty
four miles of Kut-E1-Amara, though
the route along the Tigris is about six
miles longer. There can be little
doubt Of the ability of the British re-
lief expedition to break through to
Rut-El-Amara, but General Aylmer
may be compelled to move cautiously
for fear that II he rushes into the
town his forces too will be bottled up.
1t is possible a further Strengthening
OF General Aylmer's army may there
fore be necessary before he can adj
vance within reasonable expectation
OF continuing the march from Kut-El-
Amara to Bagdad and thus accomplish
the offensive purpose Of the present
campaign.

BRITISH TRADE
EXPERTS SUGGESTION
Would cripple Germany After the War
by Export Clause in the Peace
Agreement.
lBy Wilbur s. Forrest, United Press
STAFF Correspondent. I

lBy Wilbur s. Forrest, United Press
Staf Correspondent
LONDON, Jan. 11.-Insertion of q
clause In the peace agreement, bind
Ing Germany to refrain from all ex-
port business for period Of years
is one Of the methods suggested by
British trade experts to cripple Ger
man trade after the war, It was
learned today
Leading London business men to-
day generally approved the statement
made by President Waiter Runciman
of the board Of trade in commons last
night that Great Britain must 80
cripple German commerce that the
Germans cannot again dispute world
supremacy with the British nation. \
The proposal to cut of Germany's
export business was the most dras-
tic made today The men who ad.
yocated it declared the British navy
would have no trouble enforcing such
clause, but that Germany might
buy her way out" by paying huge
Indemnity. The board Of trade is al
ready inquiring into the possibilities
of general boycott agreement by all
the allied powers which would refuse
to buy German made goods for GER
tain number of years after the war.
At the same time England Is pre-
pairing to bid on an enormous scale
for the commerce of neutrals.
Arrangements are almost complete
for an Industries OF the empire fair
to be held in London during 1917.
Particular attention will be paid at
this worlds industrial exhibition to
products formerly manufactured al
most exclusively in Germany. but
made in England and her colonies
since the beginning Of the war. A
building costing more than $1,000. 900
to house the exhibits will be erected
at Willesden Green. Efforts will be
made to bring commissions OF buyers
here from every country in the world.

Starting Anew wlth Fish.

From the Kansas City Star: Tho
federal bureau of fisheries announces
that It has planted four billions OF
young fish OF different varieties in the
streams OF every state In the union.
The bureau has restocked the rivers
OF the Atlantic coast with shad and
sturgeon. Twenty years ago fisher
man might Catch all the shad and
sturgeon he wanted in a short time in
any stream of the Atlantic seaboard.
Now they have almost disappeared.
The cause is the willful waste and de-
struction OF these fish by commercial
fishermen. Now, II the government
will find the way to protect the fish
from spoilsmen, the bureau Of fisheries
will more than justify its existence.
