Warning to the DisIoyaI.
IF there should be disloyalty, it
will be dealt with with stern repres.
sion; but, If 1t lifts it's head at all, it
will lift 1t only here and there and
without countenance except from a
lawless and malignant few.
ut is a distressing and oppressive
duty, gentlemen of the congress,
which ! have performed in thus adj
dressing you. There are, 1t may be,
many months Of fiery trial and sacri-
fee ahead of us. 1t is a fearful thing
to lead this great, peaceful people into
war, into the most terrible and disas-
trous Of all wars, civilization itself
seeming to be in the balance. But
the right is more precious than peace
and we shall fight for the things which
we have always carried nearest u
hearts-for democracy, for the right Of
those who submit to authority to have
a voice in their own governments, for
the rights and liberties of small ma
t1ons, for a universal dominion of
right by such a concert Of free peoples
as shall bring peace and safety to all
nations and make the world itself at
last free.
ITO such a task we can dedicate
our lives and our fortunes, everything
that we are and everything that we
have, with the pride Of those who
know that the day has come when
America is privileged to spend her
blood and her might for the principles
that gave her birth and happiness and
the peace which she has treasured.
God helping her, she can do no
other"

OPPOSES REVENUE LAWS
WHICH ADMIT OF EVASION
Prof. Taussig, Chairman Of Tariff
Commission, Hints Objections to
Pending War Tax Measure.

BOSTON, May ia protest against
revenue legislation which permits eva
sion by setting a future enectiVe date
was voiced here last night by froI.
Frank W. Taussig. chairman OF the new
federal tariff commission. in a speech
outlining the commissions poi1cy as
one of patient. scientific investigation.
While Prof. Taussig did not mention
specifically the war tax bill now penu-
ing in Congress, he revealed that the
commission had made recommendations
not Incorporated in the measure: ana
even had presented a draft OF iesls-
lation."
"A familiar phenomenon in our reve-
nue. legislation" said the commission
chairman, "has been the withdrawal or
commodities from the taxable field dur
ing the period in which an increase IN
rates was under discussion. For all
this there is remedy; nor is 1t lar TO
seek.
1.-THE tariff commission submitted
report to Congress showing the EN-.
barrassments and difficulties which had
arisen in the United States and pro
posing remedy. The commission also
presented draft of legislation which
was flexible and was believed to be
practicable"
Prof Taussig spoke before the Home
Markets Club. and made an appeal to
his hearers and other business men for
cooperation in the commissions task
of patient Investigation and impartial
attainments Of facts" The commission
ers, he declared, had no high flying
opinions regarding economic and scien-
tif1c aspects of the tariff, and no "aN
to grind"
Pointing out the growing Importance
OF International commercial treaties
and agreements. Prof. Taussing de-
clared there should be no spirit of ag-
grandizement in the commercial nego-
tiations that come at the close of the
war.
1--WE shall not desire for ourselves dis
criminatory or unequal commercial
privileges. If we adopt defensive conn
mercial legislation of our own, it will
be with the design of maintaining 1t
strictly as defensive not as a means
of aggression or control. II we make
commercial alliances, we shall wish to
make them profitable not only to our
selves, but to our commercial allies.
Our aim should be not to secure dis
ordinations, but to remove them"

$120,OO 900 is WASTED
YEARLY IN PACKING CASES
Prof. Breed Says Value Of Material
Cast Aside Would Meet Cost
Of 1915 Naval Program.

One hundred and twenty million dol
lars are being wasted every year on
wooden packing cases and fibre con-
tainers used in shipping goods in the
United States. according to Prof. c. B.
Breed of the Massachusetts, Institute of
Technology, who Is one of the authori-
ties on such matters and who maintains
that in times of national emergencies
like the present, when all possible saw
ing should be encouraged, shippers
ought to give careful attention to such
matters.
According to Prof. Breed the United
States wastes nearly enough money
on wooden boxes and fibre cases. which
are useless after one or two trips, to
build as many warships as were pro-
vided for in the 1915 naval bill. main
tain the navy, Naval Academy and navy
yards. The entire naval appropriation
of the United States for the year
amounted to s147,161,320 and the
amount spent for the containers of
wood fibre was, according to the best
estimates based on census and other
figures, certainly over $120,000,000.
Notwithstanding the fact that Amer
lea is actually at war with country
which has effectually conserved its re-
sources" said Prof. Breed. cit Is al
lowing many chances for national econ
omies to be entirely neglected. For
instance. in the matter of containers

millions Of wooden boxes and fiber
or broken up for kindling after only
one or two trips. While we are spend
ing hundreds of thousands of dollars
of federal, state and even municipal
funds to protect the forests against
fires, still few people even give a
thought to the s120,O00.o0o kindling
wood pile of discarded containers.
Although We spend a great deal of
money to safeguard the forests against
fires. the entire annual loss from such
fires in the United States averages only
S7.000.000, according to the official bull
letins from Washington. This is less
than per cent of the waste on packing
cases"

cago Board of Trade Tuesday. The
plan nrnyides for the nrera n "a ion of a

cago Board of Trade Tuesday. The
plan provides for the organization of a
corporation to act as clearing house,
which. while under board supervision,
would not be directly connected with it.
The corporation would have large cap
ital and each board member would be a
stakeholder. 1t would not be operated
for profit, and as profits grew the
clearing charges would be reduced.
Each member trading on the board
would be forced to place fund COM
mensurate with the amount of his
trades with the clearing house. to in
sure his settlements. Every trade
would go through the clearing house
and each night settlement trades would
be brought up" to the market. All
payments and collections would be
made through this agency.

of which we have about two hundred dotting the North Dakota
prairies-with their doors closed. Why doesn't the News blame
'Townley for this condition? Why doesn't it designate all these
failures as Equity failures?
The fact of the matter is that the News man feels the need
of saying something that will discredit the North Dakota farmers
movement. Because the League has been advocating state owned
packing plants and because a small packing plant in Wisconsin
happened to go to the wall, he thought he saw the opportunity of
a connection between the two circumstances.
No man of intelligence would attempt to construe this as an
argument against state owned plants, but rather quite the reverse.
Packing plants are absolutely necessary. If the small COOP
erative plants fail, the only alternative left is to establish insti-
tutions so large that they can not be squeezed out by the beef
trust-or else leave the entire industry in the hands of the Amer
lean Beef Trust. That, after all, is perhaps what Faky deep
down in the bottom of his heart would like to advocate.
But for the intervention of a few senators, among whom Gron-
ma of North Dakota, the misnamed "armed neutrality" bill would
now be a law and war with Germany would have been inevitable
The latest decision of the government to arm merchant vessels,
may result in the same fearful consequences. When this disaster
comes, will those who have been so industrious in maligning this
group of senator's, shoulder guns and protect the honor of the
|country?" If the United States is drawn into the present world
war, it will be for the purpose of protecting the commercial inter.
ests of Big Business-who are benefciaries in the horrible con-
hict, and would continue to be benefciaries in a still greater de-
gree if the United States becomes involved. These dollar pat
riots" are the ones who are manufacturing the war sentiment in
America and are vilifying those who are advocates of peace as
traitors to their country.
