BELIEVES LEAGUE
WILL WORK OUT
~ MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED w'REl

INV MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED w,RE1
Baltimore. Md, March 29.-In an
address on the league of nations at
the City Club today, franklin ID.
Roosevelt, assistant secretary of the
navy declared the belief that the
league furnishes an opportunity lot
putting forward one of the greatest
progressive strides the world has ever
undertaken.
II have faith,' he exclaimed. that
the league of nations will work out
and that we and the other nations will
use an unselfish effort to make it the
best thing in the world SO that under
it our relations with mankind will go
from better to better"
Mr.. Roosevelt did not express I'M
qualified satisfaction with the propo-
sitions of the league and said frankly
1t would be every NICE" If there We're
added amendments, notably one sup
plying recognition of the Monroe doc
trine.
II have read the draft of the league
three times" he said, "and always
find something to object to in it ana
that is the way with everybody. 1t Is
impossible to draw up such a league
that would satisfy two people.
"But there is no doubt that gener-
ally speaking the people mere, dS ~
Europe, are in favor of some form OF
agreement stronger than The Hague
conventions--an agreement with
teeth. And, If we are willing for this
we must be willing to give up some-
thing even If 1t be sovereign right
of our nation"
In discussing the report that the
league of uations was delaying the
signing of ne treaty of peace. Mr.
Roosevelt declared that there was
nothing to support the truth of such
a statement.
eff the question of the league had
naver been raised he added, 1.-THE
treaty of peace would be in exactly
the same position it is today"

CURRENT COMMENT
Says Clement Is Out Of Tune.

Governor Clements reply to New
York agencies striving to assist re-
turned soldiers, who have been shell
shocked, as read before the legion con.
vention in Burlington, only goes to
prove the assertion made by this paper
several times that Governor Clement is
out Of step and sympathy with his
people. His action in keeping Vermont
from being one of the first SO states to
ratify prohibition, his refusal to call a
special session of our legislature to act
upon the present suffrage amendment
and the letter first above referred to
simply show Clement to be so out of
touch with the people as to make him
really unfit for an executive. p. w.
Clement may be a shrewd business
man, he may be wise, and he may be
wealthy, but he lacks that human
touch which makes a man either popu-
lar or successful as an official Clement
rode into the gubernatorial chair on
promises of business administration
and we suppose his champions could
make up some kind of defense of his
administration, but in the minds of the
common people Governor Clement
ranks below the average of those who
have occupied the chief executives
chair in Vermont. Allen Fletcher was
ahable, popular and condescending in
comparison to the Hon p W. Clement

Regulating Coal Supply.

But there is no room for any serious
difference of opinion respecting the
propriety of the course of the govern
ment in regulating at this time both
the price and the distribution of coal
The motion that it is interfering with
the benefcent and all-sufIicient law Of
supply and demand is falhcious Attor-
ney General Palmer has punctured this
fallacy in vigorous communication
to representative of the wholesale
coal dealers.
Regulation by supply and demand is
effective under normal conditions. Com
petitive when it is active and genu-
inc amply protects consumers against
extortion. When monopoly or search
ty due to strike removes competition
as a substantial factor; when the de-
mand Is so far in excess of the sup
ply Of a necessary commodity that the
vendors are able to obtain any price
they choose TO set regardless of the
cost Of production, the question of rea-
sonableness in fixing profits, or any
other relevant consideration, then the
consumers are entitled to special meas
ures of protection and relief
Abnormal conditions require excep-
tional treatment. When the likelihood
of uncomfortable profteering is so
great as to amount to virtual certain

duty of adopting wise preventive meas.

writing in Switzerland upon scale
heretofore uninterrupted The sum to-

paid BY 100000 Swiss people is about
l00,000,000 francs (Sl9,300,000l.
OF this amount from so to 60 per
cent has been carried by Swiss com
panies. OF the remaining 40 to 80 per
cent, German companies have absorbed
90 per cent of the business. Previous

men report that they were compelled
to surrender the agencies of French

Of German companies because the poll
icies sold by the former were antiquat-

ported that German companies are
practically retiring from the field, in

change is so heavily against them, and

Cat.Tail Flour.

There are hundreds OF thousands of
acres of cat-tails growing in the
swamps Of this country, from every
acre Of which there might be obtained
two tons Of edible flour. Moreover, this
-four is said to be easily produced, and
to have a pleasing and palatable flavor.
The same Indians from which the
white man learned to use potatoes and
Indian corn made part of their diet
from cat-tail flour, but for some rea-
son the pioneer overlooked this fact,
with the result that there is now in
this country tremendous quantity Of
valuable food material going to waste.
Experiments made at private and
government laboratories have proved
that the cat tail flour contains the
same amount Of protein as rice and
corn fours, with a little less fat than
wheat flour After tests made in bak +.
ing, it was pronounced a perfectly re-
liable material to be used to the extent
of 10 to 20 per cent as a substitute for
wheat -four, Biscuits and pudding made
from 30 per cent cat tail -four or even
100 per cent, were little differe ut in
favor from those made entirely of
wheat As q result of these expert
ments, experts are urging that further
research be made n the utilization of
this plentiful food product.
There may be temptation to re-
member the adage about figs from this
ties in this proposed adoption into
the national diet Of common weed,
but rather it should be an encourage
ment to further investigation, since ev-
cry day proves how much untapped
wealth this country holds in reserve

reasonable course of action to demand
that the real condition of the con-
demned mans mind be determined by
alienists. 1t is said that Gov. Clement

being the case, Gov. Clement ought to

why Prices Must Come Down.

One of the results of the tremendous
importations which the allies were
obliged to take from us during the war
is the unprecedented depreciation of
their currency in our markets. The
pound sterling, which is worth nomi-
nally $4S65s, is to-day worth some
thing like S4lS. As an English au-
thority puts it, "The pound is worth
only II shllings in America; for ey-
cry pound we pay America for food
we get only IL shillings worth"
While such condition prevails it
means that Great Britain will have to
cut down her imports to the barest
necessities, such as foodstuifs and raw
materials And the British govern
ment is quite content that it should be
So for it viii act as sort Of protec
tive tariff to encourage the manufac-
turers at home. The same thing pre-
walls to an even greater extent in
other countries, particularly Germany,
the value Of whose currency has
dropped almost to zero Already we
see French and British buying German
| manufactures because they can be got
ten so much more cheaply than ours.
The situation is rather alarming one.
While we had a practical monopoly
OF the manufacturing for the world it
did not matter to Us how low the rate
of exchange fell. Indeed, it was a ben
eft, for the lower it fell the higher
we were paid for our products. But
now that the nations are returning
to their normal state and are nrnnariu ~
to compete with Us in the markets Of
the world, the high cost Of our manu-
features viii seriously handicap us.
