GREAT LOSS
IN REVENUE

Ire following from the Nat
ional Republican proves the con-
tention of the News, which has
been expressed frequently that
the Wilson Underwood tariff law
is a revenue-loser. There is ev-
erv reason 70 believe the figures
are correct:
Our August import trade was
a record breaker We imported
S273, 100000 worth of goods
which paid customs duties to the
amount of $14, 176, 900, or an av
erage rate of duty on all imports
Of So per cent, the very lowest
in the whole history of our inn
port trade. Had the republican
average duty rate been applied
to that import total, this country
would have realized over $40,
900, 900 in revenues. During the
eight months ended August 81,
imports totaled $1,000, 100000
or 1904, 900, 900 greater than for
the first eight months of 1918, un-
der protection. But customs
revenues for the 1918 period
totaled $211, 900. 900, and only
$126, 900, 900 for the 1918 period.
In other words, an increase of 70
per cent in our imports realized
a decrease of 40 per cent in our
customs revenues. That ischief-
iy because rs per cent. OF our
imports are now on the free list,
the remaining Is per cent pay
ing but nominal duties. 1t IS a
dangerous condition TO be In to
meet postwar competition, but
unless the peop.e Gust the DEM
ocrats from the control Of Con
gress this fall this Wilson-Un-
tariff law will be the
great commercial magnet which
draws European and oriental
goods our way. We will win the
war whatever party is in power,
but we will win it more quickly
with sane Legislators in Washing
ton, and they will also see to it
that we are prepared for the
trades war to follow. They will
not wait until that trade war is
on us before taking the necessary
steps, as the Democratic party
waited until we had declared
war before directing its laggard
steps toward the business of e.

The Moon and the Weather.

People who rely on the moon as a
weather Indicator, writes a London
Chronicle correspondent, must have
very short memories, for accurate COM
PARSONS prove conclusively that there
is no connection whatever between the
weather and the moons changes of
phase.
Professor Schuster analysed whole
century's weather records and, as a
result, was unable to trace any lunar
period in them. Several authorities
are agreed, however, that there is a
tendency for clouds to dispense as a
full moon comes to the meridian of
any place; but it is far cry from that
to the definite belief that the weather
changes with change Of the lunar
phases.
These changes, Of course, can be
predicted for years in advance with
perfect accuracy, and if the weather
depended on them, weather forecast
ing would be the simplest of all the
sciences, instead of the most difficult.

NO REFLECTION
INTENDED ON ANYONE

No reflection was intended on
anyone by the News in its state
ment Last week regarding the
poor work of the Saquatchie
School this year. The teachers
are all excellent, but a success
sion of circumstances has pre-
vented their being on duty reg
ularly, and the school has been
disorganized in consequence,
AS Miss Higgins has not yet
been absent since she assumed
connection with the school, OF
course, no reflection could have
been meant on her, and none
was intended.
The News wants school money
to achieve results, just as it wants
road money to build roads, and
since the Sequatchie school got
almost frozen out last year, it
sincerely dislikes to see it teach
erless a good per cent. Of the
time this session.
There were two teachers alb
sent last week when SuperintAn-
dent Tate visited the school, and
Miss Higgins was the only one
on duty. Children were in
charge Of the other classes and
they might have been abundant
ly qualified to teach. but no GER.

The Blind Soldiers.

Statistics furnished by the French
British authorities to the American
British-French Belgian Permanent
Blind Relief War Fund of 500 Fifth
avenue, New York, show that there
are in England, France and Belgium
more than 5000 soldiers who have
been totally blinded in the war and
nearly $4,000 blinded in one eye, a
large proportion of whom will even
tually lose the sight of the other as
the result Of shock or of the wounds
themselves. In addition there are in
France alone nearly 200 who, besides
losing both eyes, have also suffered,
by explosions or amputation, the loss
Of both arms or both legs, or a hand,
and in many cases have been rendered
stone deaf into the bargain.

WHY THE PUBLIC
MUST Do ITS SHARE

If the home papers are to be
sent to all our soldiers and sailors
and others, men and women, en-
gagged in war work abroad, this
must be done by the public gen.
orally or by interested parties in
each community.
The ruling of the War Indus
tries Board in reference to daily
newspapers, published Aug. 6,
says:
COPIES may be sent free to
former employees who are
in the war service, and cop
les may be sent free to libra
ries of institutions recognized
by the Government, such as
the Red Cross, Y. M. c. A.,
K. of c.. etc. Copies should
not be sent to individual sold
iers unless formerly employ
ed by the newspaper. y
The ruling of the War Indus
tries Board in reference to coun-
try weeklies, published Aug, q,
provides:
mo publisher may give
free copies of his paper ex-
cept for actual service render
ed and except to camp libra
ries and hospitals or can
teens of organizations recog-
nized by the Government,
etc.
mo publisher shall send his
publication to any one below
the public subscription price.
1t will thus be seen that all
newspapers which heretofore
have been sending free copies to
the soldiers abroad and all news
papers that have been contribut-
ing a portion of their subscriD-
ton price in order that the pub
lie might be encouraged to send
the newspaper to soldiers, will
have to discontinue those prac-
tees.
In other words, if the soldiers
are to have their home papers, of
which they stand so much in need
and which will give them so much
delight and comfort, the people
will have to supply the money
the full paid subscriptions.
