COSTLY CHINESE EGGS.

Imports of egg products thisyear
have amounted to about 10000.
600 pounds, valued on the average
at about 15 cents q pound. These
products are imported chiefly
from Japan and China and include
eggs that have been dried, frozen
or powdered. They are used in
this country principally by bakers

kinds Of pastry.

that in Shanghai, China, eggs are
delivered at the doors of the large
egg products plants for only s9

the price sometimes goes as low as
twelve dozen eggs for one Mexican
dollar, approximately 30 cents in
gold. These. however, are the
prices quoted by a writer in "The

seems still more remarkable, he
explains that they are the prices

LOU|S|ANA'S
PROTECT|ON|ST
CONGRESSMAN.

In view of the fact that the bal.
ance of power in tie organization
and control OF the House of Repre-.
sentatives of the Sixty fifth Con
gress may reside in single vote,
especial Importance attaches TO
the course Of action to be taken
by Representative Whitmel Pugh
Martin, who was elected last No
vember, IN the Third District of
Loulsiana-"the sugar district'--
as a Progressive and PrOtectiOnist.
Judge Martins vote may deter.
mine which of the two dominant
parties shall elect the Speaker
and determine the appointment of
committees. Judge Martin is an
out.and out Protectionist in his
opposition to the special tax pro-
visions of the Emergency Revenue
bill that has been passed by the
House Free Trade majority. He
is especially hostile to the "excess
profits tax provision as unjust
and oppressive to business, and on
general principles prefers to OBJ
tain revenue through Protective
Tariff. That such is the view of
Representative Martin is plainly
shown 10 his speech of January 81,
in the House, IN opposition to the
Kitchen bill. In the course of his
speech-which we print in full on
another page Of this issue-Judge
Martin said:
The dominant party seems
about to again abandon its plat
form for policy which If persist
ed in means that all Protection for
American industries, incidental or
otherwise, will under Democratic
rule be thing of the past.
Besides objecting to the bill on
the ground of Its complete aban
donment of Protection as a means
of obtaining needed revenue,
Judge Martin predicts that, if
passed, it will "prove boomer
aDg,' and the South will be the
first to feel the adverse effects of
this legislation. On this point
he said:
Even those who are left un
touched by this method of taxa
tion are moved in spirit of fair
ness to protest against legislation
that, though apparently aimed at
the great industrial centers of
this country, will IN my opinion
prove a "boomeraDg," and The
South will be the first to feel the
adverse effects of this legislation.

ZIONIST q clear note of non. section

New York.-Arthur S. Draper, Lon

is part:
mo greater spokesman for Great
Britain could be obtained than the
1t. Hon. Arthur Henderson. NJ. T.,
member Of the British war council
Of five and representative of the La
Dor party.
II saw Mr.. Henderson at his White
hall office and asked him to tell the
American people something OF the
allies attitude toward peace.
"He said:
".What the allies contend in re-
gard to Germany Is that its great
military powers are not subject TO
proper military constraint. that they
have not been used in accordance
with such restraint, and that, de-
spite that which has gone on for
nearly two years and a half. there
has been no change so far in this
respect, so far as Germany itself is
concerned.
suppose peace were made on a
basis of status quo ante bellum. You
must not forget that while Germany
has failed to conquer her enemies
she has conquered her allies. Ger
many has subordinated Austro-Hun-
gary, Bulgaria and Turkey wholly to
her will. Middle Europe has become
a political reality. 1t IS impossible
to return to a status quo as between
Germany and her allies, and that
reason alone would make it irnpos-
sble to accept Il status quo between
Germany and her enemies.
I'VE cannot tolerate SO powerful
and 80 strongly placed a military
force as would be constituted by
Germany, Austro- Hungary, Turkey
and Bulgaria, effectively united un
der German control, nor can we dc
SO even in view Of international rs
pirntions for the future after peace
comes. In the first place. such in
ternational aspirations might not b.
fulfilled: this or that great powe'
might decline to enter or decld'
to leave a league Of great nations
'In the second place, IL you leav,

of those who have too little regar'
for moral constraint, a league 70
peace will succeed only at the rls
of another great war. That nigh
be a tolerable thought to those VII
have not suffered as the allies hay
suffered: hut 1t Is u~nthinkable fc
us to allow such a possibility.
FINALLY. there Is no field of lii
where it Is sound procedure to see
to secure moral progress by failing I
punish crime where there is n
change Of mind or heart. That NOR;
experience is not reversed becaus
you are dealing with crime Of sue

MuRGuA CAN STOP VILLA Greece STILL UNYElD|NG
CARRY OUT ONLY PART OFF THE
ALLIES DEMANDS.
Holds That Acceptance Of Them
Would Carry With It Wrong
full Admissions.

London, England.-The Greek gov
eminent, acting in harmony with the
king, has decided to reject certain
clauses of the entente allies note de-
manding PREPARATION in consequence
of the recent fighting at Athens, the
Reuters correspondent at Athens
telegraphs.
The Greek government is ready to
discuss the other demands made by
the allies. 1t has been determined
not to declare war on the entente.
but to submit passively to all coer.
cion, relying upon ultimate recogni.
ton by the powers that blockade Is
an unmerited punishment.
King Constantine consulted with
former preiniers, who agreed unani-
mously that the note in its presen;
form was not acceptable. inasmuch
as compliance with the demands
would be equivalent to admission
that Greece c%onspired to attack the
| entente forces on the Macedonian
front from the rear. and also that
| there was foundation for the charges
Of unjust treatment of former Pre-
mier Venizelos', supporters.
In regard to the imprisoned veni
Z~elists, it is stated, the king Is ready
to pardon some or all of those con
victed. but under the constitution Is
unable to interfere with the iudicia
procedure before these men shall bt
tried.
The Athens dispatch says that
Judging from the attitude Of the en-
trnte diplomats, the situation is no
reassuring.
