Government control of American
exports, authorized in a provision Of
the espionage act, was ordered put
into operation July Is by President
Wilson in proclamation putting I'M
der license shipments to all coun-
tries of the most important export
commodities.
In a statement accompanying the
proclamation the president declared
the governments policy will be first
to give consideration to American
needs; next, to meet as far as posi-
BILE the requirements of the allies,
and lastly to supply the neutral coun-
tries wherever practicable. 1t is
made clear that every effort will be
made to see that no supplies reach
the central powers.
The commodities named in the list
put under control, are:
Coal, coke, fuel, oils, kerosene and
gasoline, including bunkers.
Food grains, -four and meal, fodder
and feeds, meats and fats.
Pig iron, steel billets, ship plates
and structural shapes, scrap iron and
scrap steel; ferro manganese, fertil-
izers.
Arms, ammunition, and explosives.
The inclusion of foodstuffs in the
proclamation lends color to state
ments that the administration is con-
sidering the ACCESSIBILITY of a COM
plete embargo for sixty days on all
food shipments to give the country
time to ascertain the amount of its
supplies and to give allied and neu-
trail countries an opportunity to pre-
sent full program of their require
ments.

Science Expert, Analyses Mail
Order Advertising and the
Magazine Move Against 1t.

At the very lowest estimate the re-
tail trade of the United States amounts
to $10,0O0,O 100000 year.
This trade is shared roughly by two
groups of distributors. On the one
hand we have the large department
stores of the big cities Of 100000 or
over and the big mail order houses
located in but two or three of the very
largest cities.
On the other hand, we have the whole
salers and jobbers, the retail stores of
the smaller cities and towns. and the
general stores In the sparsely populated
regions. With this group we must place
the trade papers and house organs, rep
resenting the interests Of manufactur.
ers and jobbers, and the great national
magazines of general circulation, whose
interests also lie on the side of dis
tributors Of branded and advertisable
products.
The annual retail business of this
country is $4,000 100000 a year.
But 1t is the country and small
town merchant rather than the city
retailer who suffers most from mail
order competition. The New York
Times Analyst of March 8, 1913, est-
mated the number of country stores at
100000, with total business amount
ing to $2,5O0,O00,000. 1t will therefore
be seen that the mail order business,
competing mostly with this class and
amounting to $500,000,000 a year,
amounts to 20 per cent Of the total
rural trade of the country.
The fight between the retail mer-
chant and the mail order man is his
toric. For years local merchants as
sociations, boards of trade and similar
bodies have been striving to promote
the "buy at home" idea.
But If the recent startling news
which comes from New York means
anything it means that these hundreds
of thousands Of buy at home" boost
ers, scattered throughout the land,
have won a new and powerful cham
pion, whose cooperation means lead
ership, force and direction for the buy
at home" movement everywhere.
The Butterick company of New York,
with an output of 150,000,000 period.
icals a year, has definitely allied itself
with the local merchant as against the
mail order man.
From one printing plant there go to
the women of the United States every
month no less than 100000 maya
zines. Among these are the Delinea'
tor, the Designer and the Woman's
Magazine. Al one fell swoop, begin.
ming with their April issues, these
magazines banished from their col
umns all mail order advertising. The
sacrifice in revenue, 1t Is understood,
amouats to hundreds Of thousands OF
dollars annually.
The verdict as to whether for them
this was piece Of "good business" OF
merely a costly concession to sent1.
ment rests with the nations retail
merchants.
Without wishing to pose as a proph'
ct, It is my personal belief that this
step on the part of these magazines Is
so significant, so vital to the retail
merchants of America, that they will
inevitably fall in line behind these
leaders of the host and accord them
such substantial and sustained sup
port as to prove their recent stand to
have been not only courageous limo
walton, but a piece Of "good business

Red Cross work is indeed the dem

Red Cross work is indeed the dem
onstrator of the progressiyeness, en-
ergy and loyalty of American
women. Patriotic to the last degree,
Wausau housewives have taken up
this humane and necessary work with
their very souls, giving their valu-
able time, expanding their energy,
and using their money generously,
and not only have they gone this far,
but some have even gone further than
their strength permits them. 1t is
admirable, but we admonish Wau-
sau's faithful women to conserve their
energy, to make it last longer, and
from all reports their welcome coop
Grafton will be most necessary for
some time to come.
A war of such tremendous scope
and consequences can never be won
except with the aid, cooperation and
action of women of all classes. With
only several months since the declar-
alton Of hostilities, our local women,
who are doubtless representative,
have more than fulfilled their OBJ
legations. Besides giving their sons,
they have all worked constantly, pre-
pairing for the needs of the war, not
waiting until those needs had already
become acute. Despite the short peri
cd in which we have been at war, the
women of the country have won de-
serving fame for their commendable
work-work without which we would
be sure to fail. With American wom-
en- backing the men to the limit, moth
ing is impossible. A victory is as
sured in time.
