Cooperative Combinations Necessary
for Development Of Foreign Commerce
BY JOHN CLAUSEN
Manager Foreign Department Croker National Bank. San Francisco

Just now we re living in al epoch Of great prosperity, in a way
artifcially stimulated by the demand for materials from the nations at
war. Whether the advantages thus gained will be upheld depends largely
on the skill and acumen of our bankers to wisely use their money power
and in the farsightedness of our merchants to strive for great diversified
ton of exports and imports.
1t is apparent that it will take something more than the offering OF
goods to build up and hold the trade which we are now in position to con-
troll. We should look ahead to future conditions-be prepared to meet
aggressive European trade combinations and keep pace with the worlds
industrial advancement.
Cooperative combinations such as may. be deemed expedient to
develop our foreign relations in normal times, ar essential, and should
in no sense be considered a contractional restraint of free trading. A
recognition of this principle in oversee trade development is, in my opin-
ion, most necessary to our economic progress. Such privileges very natu-
rally should only be accorded Ameicanowned concerns, and cooperative
organizations must obviously be prosecuted.
If the claims for superiority of American goods are made aggressive
realnies-and careful, direct and persistent efforts exercised by American
manufacturers in their introduction and exploitation, it should not be
difficult to make permanent our present pre-emInent position in world
commerce.
1t appears that to advantageously maintain our place in the inter-
national relations, we need not only an efficient banking system and a
welequipped merchant marine, but, more especially, scientific CONNER
cal EDUCATION. 1t cannot be too strongly emphasized that these problems
must be seriously taken under advisement, as a plain matter of modern
development, requiring attention along feasible and intelligent lines.

Visionary Conservation Plans are as
Dangerous to Public as Present Waste
By DIR. HENRY STURGIS DRINKER
President Of Lehigh University

A greater danger today to the public interests is threatened by the
unframed, spasmodc, emotional. semi-poitical and careless presentation
and handling Of conservation matters before the public by men and women
upon whom the Importance of the subject has suddenly dawned, than even
by the continuance of the wasteful methods of the past.
1t is absolute folly for a man unframed in engineering to venture
opinions on questions like the conservation, development and economic
utilization Of our minerals and our water powers, which require the judg
ment and experience of engineers. The trouble with many of the plans
for coal and water-power conservation proposed by men unframed and
inexperienced in engineering and in business methods is that their plans
are ideal rather than real; their dicta negative rather than positive, and
their remedies theoretical rather than practical. The fear uppermost
with such men is often rather that our public resources will pass into
the control of what they term the "monopolstic interests of the few
than the crucial question of what is best for the interests of the public
These industra questions should be looked at in a wholly cold-blooded,
business way, without any obsession o oppression of underlined hyterlcal
fear of the results o dangers of a so-called corporate monopoly, that are
often as visionary as the nursery tales of bogies told to brighten children

THE NEW NORMAL SCHOOL.
Somers Point Record.

From Somers Point Record.
New Jersey has three normal
schools-two in North Jersey and one
in West Jersey. From a location
standpoint it can not be denied, then,
that the ideal site for the new normal
school ought to be as close to the At
lantic Ocean as possible.
Pleasantville, therefore, is certainly
the nearest town to the Atlantic Ocean
that is making a bid for the school,
and if politics are not to be allowed
to influence the State Board of Edu-
cation in making its selection of a
site Pleasantville will certainly get
the school.
Why Woodbury. and Collingswood
should be given any consideration is
difficult to see, except that they may
be offering to make better land con-
cession, and from a standpoint of To-
eating a school where it will be of
most advantage to the class which it
is built for; such concessions should
have no bearing whatever. New Jer-
sey does not need any charity in
building a State institution, and char
ity offerings should not blind the
State Board of Education's eyes to a
site that offers the most lasting adj
vantages.
Personalities proximity to Allan
tic City, Ocean City, Cape May, Ocean
and Cumberland County towns, and
the splendid railroad facilities that
binds all this territory to it, ought to
be a big factor in winning the fight
for u neighboring city. This is the
territory that furnished the students
that compel the necessity for another
normal school in South Jersey. Pleas
antville's ability to supply living ac-
commodations for the hundreds of stu
dents of the school at a reasonable
rate is another big factor in that city's
favor. We doubt very much whether
Collingswood could offer the service in
this line that Pleasantville has to Of

which we consume. The more one looks into the problem the more
amazed he is that such neglect should have existed.
While the average person spends from 40 to so per cent of his
income for food, he spends only about 10 per cent of his income for trans
portahon; yet private transportation companies and the city governments
have been spending millions of dollars to look after the peoples trans
portahon interests while giving little or no time o money to their welfare
in the matter of food. The same old cutthroat, ruthless competitive
methods exist today that have always existed. policy of every fellow
for himself and the devil take the hindmost.
Only recently has any attention whatever been given in our educa-
tonal system to the al-important question of how to buy food, how to
care for it, how to cook it, the nutriive value of various foods, and all
that sort of thing. In fact, the whole question has been weLl-ngh neg
lected. This is true of practically every state in the Union, with>the
exception of California.
1t is high time we realized that we face an entirely new condition
and prepare ourselves to meet it inteigently and resolutey. Europe has
been up against this problem for a long time. She knows what coopera-
ton and conservation are; she knows the necessity for saving the waste
IN order to effect economies; she has found out that evils aeb bound to
exist in cooperative effort because of the selfshness and the greedy tend
ences of many men to take advantage of any opportunity that offers
but through governmental regulation and supervision she has found it
possible to eradicate many of these evils while preserving much of the
good that comes through cooperative undertakings
This is our problem. If we III ready for it, then with our ability
and resourcefulness we AN unquetionably solve it. If we re not ready
for it, then we will have to go OF stumbling bindly along a rough road
that will get rougher and rougher. The problem is intensely fascinating
decidedly practical.

NEW DEATH TESTS.
How to Tell When Life Has Actually
CaaeaI

How to Tell When Life Has Actually
Ceased.
An Italian scientist describes the fol.
lowing three new methods of deter.
mining the cessation of life:
The first is the ether test. A drop
of ether is instilled into the conjunc-
tival sac of one eye. If this is fol
lowed by a reddening of the conjunc-
tiva it affords proof that the circula-
ton is intact and hat life is still pres.
ent. The other eye is used as a control.
The second test consists in the sub
%cutaneous injection of fiuorescin, which.
if the individual is still living, is soon
followed by a yellowish coloring of the
skin, and mucous membrane of the
mouth and particularly of the frenum
of the tongue show this c~oloration
most distinctly. A negative result is
obtained in cases of marked slowing
or enfeeblement of the circulation.
The third test consists in direct ex.
ploration of the heart by means of q
stylet. This is introduced through a
small incision in II of the i~ntercostal
spaces. Any movement in the heart
Is communicated to the stylet.

How to Walk and Grow Thin Is tn

Main Question.
Here is a simple method to reduce
weight which has been used with
great success:
Rise early and take a half hour walk

After a light breakfast. leaving the

up a steady. long reaching movement.
This reduces the tops of the arms and
removes the fat about the neck. Then
take a buster and dust the legs of
chairs and stretch to the tops of doors
to get a steady bending and stretching
movement. The treatment takes about
two hours a morning. and by abstemi-

the accommodation of passengers; we have established
public-service commissions-all that people may travel
more conveniently and have their rights while travel
