rivals, European nations VIII also have
certain material advantages. One Of
these win be the impetus given by
their colossal national debts, which will
spur them to redoubled efforts toward
| a quick upbulldlng of their foreign
trade. They will have colonies rich In
raw materials, which have developed
during the last three years higher de-
gree of productive efficiency. They,
will have an intimate acquaintance
with the conduct Of foreign trade and
at least a framework Of an organlza-
tion for perfecting 1t. They will have
a system of foreign banks with staffs
Of trained men. They will have de-
gree of governmental assistance and
support, hitherto, at least, unknown to
American traders. q
But America has certain other adj
vantages over them. She has huge
gold reserve on which to build credit,
sufficient not only for our own enter
prlses, but also to give foreign aid.
We have banking system characters
lied by some of our rival nations as
ideal, a system lending itself to the
extension of American financial houses
abroad. In this d beginning has been
made, not only by setting up branch
banks and foreign Offices, but also by
organizing commercial banks.
Then, too, America has a form Of
government in which her citizens be-
lleve. Other nations generally under
stand that she has no territorial am
billions. Finally, this country is not
likely to be cursed with the class
struggle.
Economically, her position is solid.
with an immense and varied popula-
tion, she is assured Of d richness and
variety of productive efforts that,
rightly directed, should give her pre-
eminence. She has an abundance OF
untitled farm land, inexhaustlble
mines, rich forests and ample water
supply. Our Inventive genius Is pro-
verbal. And we shall have at the
close of the war a merchant marine,
such rs America or any other nation
has never before known.
And yet, while every other great ma
ton Is attacking its future prepara-
tions under carefully organized goy-
ernmental direction, we in the United
States are tagging behind There has
been so far no organized undertaking
OF the problem Of reconstruction as a
whole on the part Of the Government
While 1t may be fairly assumed That
such departments as those OF the
Treasury, Interior, Agriculture, Com
merce and Labor are deyoting much OF
their time to reconstruction measures,
there is as yet no agency for the co.
ordination Of their findings and the
suggestion Of general policies, unless
1t be Congress itself, a purely political
body.
While up to the present time individ-
uals, corporations and associations
have done a great deal In the desulto-
ry, detached sort of way, no medium
for the interchange of opinion or for
cooperative effort has been created.
This country seems not yet to have
sensed the fact that the day Of indi-
vidual efforts and purposes, as distin-
guished from cooperation and public
service, has passed; that the war has
established not only the interdepen-
dence of nations, but also the lnterde-
pendence of individuals and classes,
and that common understanding. coun-
sci and cooperation are to be The
watchwords OF the future.

SENATOR PIERCE
MAKES UNNECESSARY
SPECIAL SESSION
State Commission Has Power
to Order Special Tax Levy
Voted by People

A law put through the last legisla-
ture by Senator Walter NJ. Pierce will
probably obviate the necessity of call
ing special session of the legislature
to submit to the voters an emergency
war tax meaure.
This law, which is chapter $50, laws
of 1917, gives the state tax commission
authority to order an additional tax
levy referred to the people, so if it is
necessary to submit such a bill there
will be no necessity for the legislature
to meet to do it.
With, business foresight, Senator
Pierce introduced this measure in the
last legislature for the purpose of meet
ing just such emergency as now ap-
pears to confront the state, which is
restricted by the per cent tax limita.
tion in the amount of funds that may
be raised for state purposes.
Because of the failure Of the state
council cf defense to complete the
initiation of a bill to provide an
emergency war fund, Governor Witty
combe was considering the advisability
of calling special session of the legis-
lature when Attorney General Brown

Superintendent Alderman
Denoted by School Board

Portland, Or, July 6-PoHland's bit
ter school fight which has extended
over period of years apparently was
ended today with the demotion of L.
R. Alderman, superintendent of schools
and the reinstatement of Mrs. A. Alex
ander as a school principal.
The reduction of Mrs. Alexander
from a prineipalship some years ago
resulted in several court actions, with
the board having a slight advantage.
Charges were preferred against her
and she was dismissed. Her case has
been an issue in every school election
since then.
Alderman was made superintendent
of war work in the schools. He may
not accept this position.
Alderman has won in every previous
school election, but the recent one es-
tablished a board unfavoiable to him.
