When our competitors in other leading
countries are ready to adopt the laws Of
free trade for our commodities it will be
soon enough for US to consitler similar
action favorably. II we were to have free
trade throughout the world, we could
probably take care Of ourselves in any
contest for the disposal Of what we have
for sale.
In view of conditions as they exist in
normal times, it is not logical to place or
to leave the United States in a position
of disadvantage when we have the oppor-
tunity to establish parity. Tho doctrine
Of America first, which is q patriotic one,
applies with peculiar force to the idea OF
sufficient protection to American indus
tries. This means not a prohibitive tariff,
but one large enough to permit continued
success in competition with the outside
world.
For the Immediate future while Europe
is under reconstruction and the peace
business of the world is being readjusted,
business will have an artificial stimulus.

more strongly TO US For we shall not

Let Us keep our balance while consider

before, tho people throughout the world

other matters. These subjects will puzzle
the best and most experienced minds for
long time.
The war, with its cost in men and dollars,
will bring reactions and establishments,
With possible economic Generalization and

must be on our guard.
But thcrc Will be natural and certain

Of the United States and % oil other

contributed their share. There is surely
glory enough for all, and to spare.
But the final and controlling reason for
success IS found in the fact that during the
last months Of the conaic. there have been
unity OF purpose, coordination and
concentration Of action and spirit OF

POSSIBILITIES That Have Not
l. Been Fully Realized

The vast possibilities os the country for
increase in wealth have not IN the past been
fully utilized On the contrary, instead OF
trying to bring about cooperation between
the government and the people in deter
mined effort to better the conditions Of ell,
there has been, in substantial degree, an
open hostility to business which has para
lyzed many Of it's legitimate efforts.
While there has been some cause for COM
plant on the par. OF the government, it is
believed that few, if any, cases have been
found which could not have been sstisfac-
toriiy and properly adjusted By personal
and friendly, though persistent, efforts with
out any open or advertised opposition which
was certain to lessen confidence.
The time seems opportune, again, TO insist
that the government, with all its agencies
and influences, shsll cooperate with the
business interests and aid them in cstab-
fishing credit, in extending commerce, in
increasing capacity, in che development OF
natural resources. and in sdding to the con-
fort Of themselves and those with whom
they may be connected and for whose vel

there arc rcasons TO suppose it viii be
large
The government viii for some time
tinuc to be large purchaser at reasonable
prices for the finishing Of ncompletcd prof.
ects and others contemplated for changes
which will be incidental to a peace basis.
The War Industries Board and other gov
ernmental departments are diligently de-
vislnG methods for assisting in the read
Justment of business without serious dis
turbanccs or injury to general conditions.
Besides, there has been in all lines OF
trade with which the government has not
been specially, interested an accumulation
OF orders, which, to large degree at least,
will be placed as soon as the supply may
justify. And in order to refillAmpty ware
houses throughout the country iakge GUAM
titles Of finished materials wilibe required.
Moreover, III non-producing countries it
has been impossible to supply their neces-
sites on account Of the war requirements,
and they will commence to buy as soon as
1t is practicable, SO that large increase in
expectations may be expected. Extensions
and new construction which have been nee
cssarily postponed for lack OF material will
be taken Up and pushed to completion as
rapidly possible.
And with all this is connected the thought
that as net result Of the war the volume
OF cash and cash resources has been in
creased in a marked degree and will be ex-
pended for purposes of expansion and devel-
opment in this rich and growing country
The circulation of money is considerably
larger than it was at the beginning of The
war.
1t is true that there IS q considerable
imitation Of credit, but not a. all danger
GUS one, unless it be further extended and
used for purely speculative rather than
constructive purposes. And I think the
banking community acting viii, the Federal
Reserve Board will take ample care to see
that unnecessary and unwise banking credit
is not given. Financially we are very sound.
The war has taught one great lesson
which the nation would do we'll to remen,-
Der. That is the value of cooperative effort.
There are many reasons why the armies
Of the Allies and the United States are VIC
torious. Volumes will be written on the
subject. Credit for winning the war will be
claimed by or in behalf of various coun-

pairing It with others, feel very certain,
in judging the future that there viii be
disposition on the par. OF those in author-
ty to assist rather than TO attack busi-
ness effort.
There viii be much study, reflection
and friendly concern shown in relation 20
the needs and requests Of enterprise and

Legislation and administration will be
founded on ascertaincd conditions, de-
icenccs and requirements.
Both capital and labor will be protected
and rewarded. Employers will lead in the
effort to promote the welfare Of their
workmen.
Cooperation will be seen on every hand.
Capital and labor will continue TO COPPER
ate with governmental administration, and
the latter will reciprocate in every prac-
teal and proper manner.
We have every reason TO be hopeful. Ono
who recognizes the dangers and the diff
cultes which. are in sight is not neces-
sarily pessimist. I prefer the man vao

1t remains for all who have been per-
mitted to survive the horrors of war to
enter upon the new era with united and
fraternal spirit, and fixed purpose TO
profit by the experiences of the past and
to sid heartily in the establishment OF a
permanent basis OF peace and prosperity.

WHAT About Wages in This
w Country and Elsewhere?

Together they are in normal times in
competition, seeere even though good
naturcd, With the producers OF other coun-
tries. The labor OF this country is
brought into direct competition with the
labor of other countries Wages in the
leading foreign countries have been in the
past about one-half the amount paid here
for similar services, and, although for
eign wages have increased, that ratio has
carried through the war increases.
BESIDES, many Of the governments will
in increased volume furnish aid to their
industries. They will produce as much as
possible and their facilities, though i'm
paired, will quickly recover with this aid
They will cell wherever they can find a
market, ard they will sell at low prices il
necessary.
We have for many months past been Sc
cure by reason Of the we'll known CON
ditons OF way; but if we carry cur minds
back TO the circum stances existing shortly
prior TO the war we know what we may
nov expect unless there is q change in
our laws.
There should be included in the laws
features which will furnish reasonable and
adequate protection to American indus
tries and also revenue for government pur-
poses; plan for reciprocity or reciprocal
negotiations and relations with other
countries so that all conditions, changes
and emergencies can be met and solved for

MEAT INJURIOUS
TO THE KIDNEYS
Take a tablespoonful of Salts if Back

forms uric acid.

We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says a
well-known authority, who warns us to
be constantly on guard against kidney
trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the climinative tissues clog
and thus the waste is retained in the
blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel like
Jumps of lead, and you have stinging
pains in the back or the urine is cloudy,
full of sediment, or the bladder is irri-
taLle, obliging you to seek relief during
the night; when you have severe head
aches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleepless-
ness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad
weather, get from your pharmacist about
four ounces of Jad Salts; take q
tablespoonful in glass of water before
breakfast each morning and in few
days your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys,
to neutralize the acids in urine 80 it Is
no longer a source of irritation, thus
ending urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink, and nobody can make
a mistake by taking little occasionally
to keep the kidneys clean and active. -
