DEMAND EXPORT DUTY

With abundance or everything In
this country the price OF living and Of
manufactured articles has increased.
The reason for this is the fact that the
foreign markets are ready to take all
they can get in the United States at
much higher prices than are now pre-.
vailing in our domestic market.
A big export duty is the only thing
that will protect Americans.

CHICAGO BANKERS
OBJECT TO PLAN

Chicago bankers oppose the pro-
posed ordinance now before the coun.
Gil for city supervision of private
banks.
The reasons advanced against the
passage of the ordinance are as fol.
lows:
1. Unprecedented.
2. Questionable constitutionality.
8. Would provide another excuse
for blocking proposed state legisla-
ton.
4. Would not provide for regulation
of downstate private banks.
g. Very little or no time would be
gained IL legislature does act this ses.
sion.
g. Incorporation under the banking
laws of this state is essential to sue
cessful modern banking:
(a)-In order to provide definite
capital and liability.
DIN order to provide double liza.
bility.
(c)-In order to distribute response.
bility for ownership, control, direc.
ton and management.
(d)-In order to permit satisfactory
auditing.
(e)--In order to provide for proper
supervision and regulation.
U-In order to prevent Interrupt.
ton of business upon death of princi-
pal.
(g)-In order to separate bank in.
vestmepts from those of principal.
Z. Confusion of public over still an.
other class of bank created by ordi
nance.
| s. Certainty of public mistaking
license by the city for Endorsement
of the city.
Q. Necessity of private banks hav
ing to adjust their affairs twice when
state enacts law.

new CONSTITUTION
COMING

Supporters of the move for a con.
stitutional convention are confident
that the fiftieth general assembly will
adopt a resolution to submit the ques.
ton to vote of the people.
Ten votes were lacking when the at.
tempt was made to put it through the
house on March 81, 1915, after the sen.
ate had given the resolution the re.
quired two.thirds majority.
Fifty out of the ninety.two members
who voted for the resolution in the
forty.ninth session will return to the
fiftieth. The supporters of the "con.
con" declare they know that they may
count upon not less than thirty.eight
of the forty.two who take the places
of the others being with them.
Twenty of the thirty.two members
who voted against the resolution be.
fore were reelected to the house,
which, opponents of the plan say, is
better showing than the other side
made.
Sixteen of the seventeen whose
names do not appear on the roll call
we're reelected, and II is reasonable
to suppose that most of them will
dodge the issue again and be absent
when the vote is taken in the next
house.
II is then necessary for the pro.
moters of convention to get their
strength from the new members. This
they say they can do and they have
hopes of winning over some Of the
thirty.two who voted against them in
the last session.
No pledges have been exacted from
| the members this year, according to
report. George E. Cole. Shelby M.
Singleton and their associates in the
organizations that always have been
behind the convention move have

What viii Happen When Wages
Tumble After the War.-Will
There be Riot and Bloodshed
INDUSTRIAL CRISIS APPROACHES

TO the Editor:
> sober 4th6ughts fill the minds OF
many or the worlds best thinkers as
they look into the future. Tremen
dous changes have occurred during the
past two years. The times have been
vibrant with intensity. The wheels
of industry have, in this nation
whipped up their speed.
America is enjoying the most
Astounding prosperity in her history
of a century and halfI Never have
such high wages been paid to the
workers--tWo dollars day for the
cheapest form of labor, and up tC
forty-fiye dollars day for workers
in some of the munition factories
Yet grave apprehensiOns are fell
over the industrial complications thai
will inevitably follow the present
war.
According to the Current Opinion
for July, there is a cloud on the hOr
lion. 1t is no bigger than 4 mans
hand, and yet it is a cloud that may
wreck American prosperity
Will there be a tumble in wages
when the war is over. And will the
multitudes of workers accustomed to
big wages stand idly submissive un
der the very shadow of the fabulous
war fortunes heaped together by the
financial reapers from the wars. har
vest? ."
There is an.Sundeniable feeling, OF
suppressed anxiety over the outlook
There is strong presentimeDt that
somehow human history is approach
ing a crisis. But who can throw light
on this difficult problem? Who can
read the future? Surely it is beyond
the ken of the human mind. Yet there
is One who knows the end from the
beginning-the living God.
And we have also more sure word
of prophecy; where unto We do well
that We take heed, as unto a light that
shineth in dark place. p Peter ! :l9
In this sure word, even the fore
bodings that now fill mems hearts
are foretold. After delineating those
signs which were to serve as pre-
cursors of the second coming of King
Jesus-the distress of nations, with
perplexity," and SO forth-the inspr
ed description continues, mems
hearts failing them Tor fear, and for
looking after those things which are
coming on the earth
We have reached the time f0retold
