Canada's Exports to u. S. Grow

Although the total exports from
Canada were smaller in 1918 than in
1917, the merchants of the Dominion
shipped more goods into the United
states last yea: than the year before.
Canada sold goods valued at s433 2S2.-
149 in 1918 to the United States. sum
approximately 100000 more than
IN 1917. The United States exports to
Canada, however, fell below the 1917
figures, when they were valued at 1928
1864, against S738,142,06 in 1918.
The exports of the Dominion to all
countries amounted to 1929, 708, pa in
1913, compared with 1854, 34O,s85 for
1917 and 81 ,O91, 7O6.4O3 in 1916

guarantee of a minimum net income
for all railroads seem not to give
sufficient thought to one important
factor. 1t is recognized that in MAX
ing rates high enough to provide a
sustaining return for the less fortu-
nate roads, the more fortunate roads
would get too much. With this in
mind the minimum guarantee plans
30 far advanced have suggested a
division Of profits earned by the
stronger roads above the guarantee,
part of the surplus going to labor
profit-sharing schemes and part to
the Government. But this at best
solves only half of the problem. The
main difficulty presented by mini
um-guarantee plan is not how to
keep the strong railroads from get
ting too much, but how to protect
the shippers from paying too much.
There is no workable way in which
any part of the high rates to be paid
by the shippers could be returned to
them. The effect of turning a sur
plus over to the Government would
be to tax small portion of the
communicative shippers-for the
benefit of the whole community.
This would constitute an unfair tax;
for the shippers, be they individuals
or corporations, are, as such, al
ready paying taxes according to
their means. The man or corpora
ton whose business did not involve
much transportation would enjoy an
unjust advantage over the business
that did. And it is fair question
whether the virtual tax thus laid
upon such business would not react
in it's effect on trade, upon the whole
community.
The savings banks of New York
City have deposits totalling about
81, 800 100000. Since November ]
deposits have risen more than $780,
100000. Savings bank officials as
sert that this represents largely the
return Of boarded money. Why was
the money boarded? There are sew
eral reasons, but among them was
the senseless propaganda Of we'll
meaning Liberty Loan speakers,
who, after dilating for fifteen min
utes on the blessed privilege Of be-
ing able to buy a Liberty bond,
would end up with the remark {:
"And if you don't lend your money
to the Government the Government
will take it anyway" That did not
encourage confidence in Govern
mcnt bonds, and the mind crude
enough to be impressed by the
threat was usually crude enough
to fancy a Government seizure of
savings deposits.

TROOPS ARREST WYOMING MINERS WHO REFUSE
 TO WORK

SHERIDAN, Wyoming, Nov. 26-- Scores of coal miners who declined to return to work on demand were round- ed up by United States soldiers in Car ney Valley today and were later placed on interurban cars for removal to the county jail at Sheridan. Those who continued their opposition were order ed locked up by Major Dean, the mili- tary commander of Northern Wyom- ing. All other miners in the train were given orders to return to work this afternoon or run the risk of being placed in confinement. The arrests have resulted in great ill feeling among the miners but no serious trouble Is apprehended as the troops have firm control of the situation and are main- taining strict martial law throughout the coal districts.

RAILROAD UNIONS DEMANDING
 GENERAL STRIkE-REPoRT

CHICAGO, Nov. 26-Rumors afioat here indicate that the prospect of T general strike of railroad workers Is not an unremote eventuality if gov- ernment efforts to relieve the present food situation remain in abeyance. The national leaders of the four railway brotherhoods held secret session at which the insistence of many local unions that q general strike of rail- way workers be called on December to enforce the demands for general increase of pay was given serious con- sideratfon. according to information obtained here today. It is said that numerous unions are demanding that drastic action be taken owing to the failure of the government to take defi- rite action toward relieving the econo- mic stress in which the country is in- volved.

NATIONAL COAL SITUATION REACHES cRISIS-Gov'T
 CONTEMPLATING
 CURTAIlMENy

WASH, Nov. 26-The national coal situation resulting from the coal miners walkout has reached crisis in the view of the government officials and drastic steps to curtail consump- ton are in contemplation. according to official statements today.
 The closing down of numerous mines has reduced the present coal output to a point far below the amount daily consumed by the nation and the avail able surplus is being consumed at an alarming rate. It is indicated that the government. acting through the Fuel Administration will probably pro hibit the use of coal in all unnecessary industries. in the same manner as dur. ing the war period. An order pro- hibiting the use of coal in the manu- facture of coke has already been pro- posed as the first step in the effort to reduce consumption.

MEXICAN ATTITUDE ARoUSES
 CONGRESS-. WILL DISCUSS
 SITUATION MONDAY

WASH, Nov. 26-It was definitely announced today that congress will take up the Mexican situation i'm mediately after converting Monday. The determination to take immediate action on the Mexican question is primarily the result of the attitude of the Mexican government regarding the capture of American consular agent Jenkins, of Pueblo. by bandits. The delay of the Carranza government in answering the sharp note of the United States demanding Jenkins release is arousing considerable protest. The American note has been in the hands of CarrlnZa practically five days but has so far evoked no reply.
