TIE RIGHT ATTITUDE.

Amidst all the other trouble which
is prevailing throughout the country,
it is cause for qualification that the
Bethlehem Steel company has receded
from it's defiant stand against the war
labor board and announced that it
will give its full cooperation to the
putting into operation of the sugges-
tons that have been made by the
federal board.
1t was some little time ago that the
government labor organization was
called upon to determine the course

ton relative to its employees. That
was before the fighting stopped, and
it was directed to put into operation

tween the management and employees
which would doubtless have been car
RED out had the war continued With
the signing of the armistice and the
announcement that the war was at
an end the company evidently con-
sidered that the agreement was off,
that the duties Of the board were at
an end and that the plan suggested, as
well as that for securing additional
compensation from the army and
navy departments to cover work done
by the employees, had likewise ended

intended to contest the authority of
the board for that reason, but whether

In Gotha, where this attempt was made, the school boys and girls started a strike in protest against the order of the school board. The supervision of Religious Instruction is not in the hands of the Church but of the State Authorities. This prob ably means that there will be no supervision at all, but it may also mean pressure upon the schools to spread radical religious views.

UNITED STATES HAS BIG TRADE
 NTH BRAZIL
(Commerce Monthly.)

Brazil has always depended exten- sively upon the United States for manufactured articles, but war con- ditions have curtailed her sources of supply here and elsewhere, en- forcing the development of her own industries to meet her peoples needs and tending to lessen her dependence upon this country.
 More than one-third of the total imports into Brazil during 1918 came from the United States. What share of this consisted of manufactures is not yet known, but in 1917 more than country was made up of manu- factured goods.
 While the war has increased our productive capacity until We feel the necessity of finding a market for our surplus manufactured products, it has eXerted an equally stimulating eff feet upon Brazilian industry. The usual sources of supply were closed to the Brazilian people. The develop ment which has taken place in that country since 1914 would serve as ? classical illustration of the steps by which industrialization occurs in any country.
 As war cut off the imports of tex tiles and clothing, Brazil set out to clothe her own people. Prior to the war, the larger part of Brazilian cot ton was exported raw" while that or other cotton, manufactured abroad for Brazilian use, was imported. Now the major portion of Brazilian cotton is consumed at home, and the local industry supplies considerably more than half of the home trade. Many of the local cotton mills are built on fine modern lines. with electric power

and all the latest equipment. Some silk and jute goods are also nanu- factured- Before the war the country was dependent on imports for kni; goods.
 Between 1915 and 1917 eight mills for the manufacture of knit goods were established in Sac Paulo, and more than seventy textile mills of all classes are in operation in that state alone. One million, two hundred thousand hats were made in that dis trict in 1g16,
 The manufacture of shoes has re- ceived such an impetus that the country is no longer dependent on footwear in Brazil is now 20,O00.OO0 pairs q year.
 Brazil found that it had difficulty rot only in getting adequate cloth ing, but also in procuring prepared foods. In this situation ii set cut to prepare these products at home. A large number of plants for making preserves, sweets and chocolates have begun operation.
 Corn milling and other nanufac- lures of food products increased rapidly. Now Brazil is not only pre- pairing food products for its own use, but, in certain lines, it is also en- tering the world market. In 1914 no lard was exported from Brazil. In 1915, I tons were exported, and in 1918, 13,270 tons, valued at abou, $8,000,000, left Brazil for foreign ports. The exportatson of refrigerated meats has expanded from $500 to 60.500 tons.
 The state of Sac Paulo is the main nf fo ing the years from 1915 to 1917, 323 manufacturing concerns capitalized at a total of $3,500,000, or an average of over S10,00O each, were established q in that province.
 Progress toward naturalization as a result of the war, so marked in Brazil, has been made in almost every one of those less developed countries of the world which in the past have been looked upon as sure markets for the exportable surplus ot staple manufactures from the chief manufacturing countries.
 This tendency to develop home in dustries is a matter for earnest thought on the part of those manu- facturers who require an export mar. ket for their product. The situation need cause no anxiety if it is realized and intelligently met. Our exporters should prepare to sell the manufac- turing equipment which these coun- tries will require in increasing quan- titles and articles of comfort and lux. ury adapted to meet the expanding demand of populations whose stand ard of living is rising and whose con suming power is increasing as theil industrial life quickens. So. far a: they atte n1pt to compete with article: of local ruanufact cture, Americans mus either meet the local price, offer { better article or develop specialities the market for which is easier to hold than is the market for staples.
