,rTIs an m war that blows nobody good
j This war under the Wilson Baker Daniels Admin
stration blew ms to the tune Of about s30O0OoO0D but
II also helped TO develop our rice growing industry which,
in 1914 toaled 236i9OO0 bushels and Is ohcialy est-
mated this year at i26s7OOO bushels.
The world crop totals 2OoOOOOOOO pounds per snnum,
while ours is only something over iOO0OOOOoO pounds
and yet we are today the largest rice producer In the
Occidental world with great possibilities for multiplying
the supply under improved methods and backed up by
sane legislation.
A few years ago It was found that certain lands IN
Texas Arkansas Louisiana, California and elsewhere
could be devoted successfully TO this sndustry the lands
flooded by nearby streams, arcsian wells and after
the grain had matured It could be harvested With the
ordinary reaping and threshng> machinery.
BY 1892 under the Mckinley protective tariff law we
were raising nearly 100000 pounds OF rice annually
That law provided duty OF two cents pound on the
cleaned rice and one and aquarer cents the unceaned
rice
Along came the wilson-Gorman Democratic law and
reduced the duty that the cleaned product paid put
cent and ahaf Of duty while "unceaned rice, or rice
free Of the outer hull still having the inner cutcle
on paid but eight-tenths OF cent per pound duty
In 1896 the last wear OF the Wilson German law, rice
production in this country had fallen to under OOoOO
pounds.
The Dinsley protective tariff restored the Mckinley
rates and in 1902 when that law made way for the Payne
protective law thls country was p'ouu0'ne '''
pounds Of rice.
Under the Payne law production rose to 7i5OOooOO
pounds as the former duties were continued
The wson-U Underwood law at present in effect made
drastic cut in the duties rice the cleaned paying
duty Of one cent the uncleaned but fveelghths oil
cent a pound-or reduction on both Of so per cent
The effect was immediate and production for 1914
lust before the European broke out fell to 6SlOOON
pounds, and was still dwndns when the war in Europe
hogan to restore prosperity here
Imports tell something Of the tale: In 1913, under
the Payne protective rates imported 100000 pounds
OF unceaned and 100000 pounds Of cleaned rce in
ioiI nine months Democratic law. the figures were
100000 and 100000 pounds respectively Since then

The most un-Amerlcan strike in Ia,
history Of the country has been frus-
traGed by the loyalty OF the American
workmen OF the iron and steel indus
try
The nationwide walkout, made pos
slble by the slampedlng Of the for
eign workmen, which it has threatened
by the radical agitatOrs would paralyze
the industry. has failed at the vital
points and the outlook is that 1t has
passed the crest
It is estimated that % per cent. OF
the strikers have been recruited from
siie ranks Of foreign, common labor.
The American employees nr a rule,
not only refused to Join in the strike
but have manifested a willingness TO
return 20. work the moment the oppor-
tunity presents itself.
While many plants have been forced
to close. this has been due in numer-
Gus cases to the crippling Of certain
essential departments and to -" in
voluntary or coerced absence OF non
striking workmen. rather than to the
strength OF the strikers themselves.
The active number Of bona flde strik-
ers has been placed at 90 per {,
Of the total forces now idle
Steel manufacturers have taken q
calm view OF the situation, awaiting
the opportunity TO properly apprsise
the extent OF the offensive movement
