COMPARES u. S. SHIPPERS

report on Examples of American
Export Enterprise" which the Ma
tional Foreign Trade Council submit
ted to the fourth National Foreign
Trade convention here today.
"Certain American consuls, com.
mercial organizations and banks
have done useful service in sharply
calling attention to specific derelict-
ions on the part of Americans IN ex-
port trade" says the council, "but
these specific complaints have be-
come the basis for generalization
highly discreditable to all American
foreign trade" The charge that
Americans do not know how to pack
their goods for export is one sun
founded" charge that is so widely
prevalent as to be a positive him
drance and it is the argument largely
used by foreigners against American
products.

Chicago, Jan. 27.-Good roads past
every farm; a network of hard-surf-
ace highways covering the country,
that will solve the national food and
freight problems by breaking the
grip of the railroads on farIn-to-
market transportation!
That's the idea behind the nation
wide movement for better highways
that win result in the expenditure,
within five years, of two hundred mill
lion dollars for improving country
roads.
From these sown millions will be
reaped billions, say good roads en-
thusiasts; and an additional crop will
be Unreasonable; the wiping out of
jealousy between cities and country
districts. The good road, auto, and
parcel post already have done much
to eliminate this century-old jealousy,
proponents Of better highways say.
When the country was young there
was movement for hard surface
roads, and one national highway act
ually was built across the Allegha-
mics. But the rise of railroads end
ed the good roads movement in its
! infancy. This continued until the
nation was at the mercy of privately
owned railroads.
Development of the automobile
gave the present road movement its
impetus; but opinions differ now as
to whether the highway propaganda
owes much to the auto industry, or
vice versa.
There are today 100000 autos in
use in the United States and 70 per
cent Of those made in the las two
years have been bought by farmers,
who certainly would have had little
use for autos were it not for the re-

cent betterment of roads.
There are now 100000 miles of
fairly good roads in the country, out
of total mileage of 2,275,000.
The federal government has voted
SIC, 100000 to be distributed among
the road departments of the states in
the next five years, on condition the
states raise amounts equal to the
United States fund. Five millions of
this amount are available this year,
the amount being increased by five
millions each year; so that 1921 will
see the greatest activity of history
in bodybuilding, with more than
$50,000,000 to be spent.

spent by the federal government and

SOME MOTHERS CHILD.

At home or away in the alley OF
street,
Whenever 1 chance in tie wide world
to meet
A girl that is thoughtless, a boy that
is wild,
My heart echoes softly, 1t is some
Mothers child.
And when l see those DER whom long
years have rolled
Whose hearts have grown hardened
whose spirits are cold,
Be it Woman all fallen or Man all
defiled,
A voice whispers softly, It is some
Mothers child
No matter how deep he is sunken in
sin,
No matter how much he is Stunned by
his kin,
No matter how low is his standard OF
joy,
Though guilty and loathsome, he is
some Mothers boy.
That head hath been pillowed or
tenderest breast,
That form hath been wept DER, those
lips have been pressed,
That soul hath been prayed for ii
tones sweet and mild,
For her sake deal gently with some

GETTING THE BEST OUT OF LIFE.

The Pittsburgh Observer says
truly: Many young persons think
OF little except how they can have a
good time. If there is work to do it
is only something III the way to be
got rid OF as soon as possible, no mat
ter how. They think they can live as
the butterfly does when in its glory.
To find something entertaining, to be
amused, is all they think OF. This is
natural, and as it is well that they can
look on the bright side of life. But
they should know also that life is not
all play. There are duties to be per-
formed, and real happiness comes on
ly after work we'll done. Happiness
is not found when sought as the chief
things in life. Entertainments cease
to entertain. The clever companion
does not please always unless there
are sterling qualities OF character
back OF the cleverness. Work is the
blessing of mankind There ought to
be some earnest purpose, some worthy
aim, in the heart of every one. Live
not for the present moment. Live to
be and do. There are consequences
to all our acts. Folly soWn brings a
bitter harvest which none can escape
reaping. There are innocent joys to
which all, especially the young, are
entitled. But it should be learned
that living to some worthy purpose
brings the trueSt enjoyment

THE PROBLEM OF OLD AUTOS

An authority automobiles states that The production
in the United States this year will be 1700000 This
naturally brings up the question to where the point of
saturation" begins It can be easily understood that
with the making of this number of autos yearly the
market will sometime reach its limit of ability to absorb
them Already the crop Of second hand autos is getting
large, and Of course is growing rapidly What will be-
of the old cars? Many being rebuilt now but
there will be no demand for this class of cars
especially in spite of increased cost of materials prices
are not advanced and in makes are even reduced
What will happen when the war is and materials are
cut half price There is but one answer and that
is that the American manufacturers will have to seek al
world market They equipped for making the lower
priced cheapy than any other country cam
turn them out However with the tremendous debts
hanging all Europe it is safe prediction that those
markets will be closed to by tariff wall that can
not surmount This indicates that the most avaiabeI
field for the surplus will be South America Mexico and
in small way Asia So far the demand has kept ahead
of the supply is still in that condition. but the day is mott
far distant when this will be reversed The auto makers
have had large pan Of milk to skim and they have sure
ly gathered wealth of In the natural order of
things this condition cannot obtain indefinitely and It'll
looks though the summit of the industry had been
reached, or will be with this years record breakngI
production.

BREAD FOR THE WORLD

heavy blanket of wet is reported throughout

shortage of cereals this year. Europe will be deficient
because large formerly devoted to growing grain
now planted with corpses so devastated that it could
not be cultivated if the contending armies would
permit it. On top of this is great shortage of
farm labor due to five millions of men whose hands two
three years ago titled the soil and handled the indus
tries of Europe rong without even the poor shell

only unable to work. but helpless and burden to be

there is already shortage 1t results then that the
