BRITISH SHIPPING NEED NOT FEAR UNITED STATES RIVALRY
 SAySENCZISH AUTHORITY

LiverooI, Nov. 15-British ship ping has nothing to fear from Amer ican competition, in the opinion of a writer in the Liverpool Journal Of Commerce." He contends that unless British labor goes mad in its demands in which event nothing can save Brit ish industry, the nation can beat all competitors in the shipping field. He writes in part as follows:
 Tt may be laid down, broadly and generally, that just as the United States is designed by nature to be a great food producing country-a great internal trading counry-very little dependent upon external trades such as shipping and shipbuilding and the exportation of manufactured goodJ-so Britain is cut out to be a great external commercial country. Nothing can beat Britain in these lines except British slackness, At present there is much slack working and keen agitation in this country; but our people will settle down even tually, and then we shall forge ahead in trade and industry.
 "The figures recently given regard ing shipbuilding yard outputs in Bri- tain and the United States have been misleading, and very unfair to o,sr people. For two or three years, while the Americans have been able to con- centrate pretty much on purely new merchant launchings, and show big results in this respect, the bulk of our plans and workers have been en- gagged on special naval construction, and on abnormal repairs, both mer- cantile and naval, for our Allies as well as for ourselves, and this wor4s has not been included in the figures that have been hashed up by ignor- ant writers.
 We could build ships at less than

the Americans before the war, and although the demands of our work men have Iessened our advantage in this respect. we have not yet lost our advantage altogether. Only about two years ago no less an authority than MT. Powell, president Of the Fore River Sh1pbuild5ng Corporation, was able to present figures to the Ameri- can Trade Convention showing that American shipyard wages were still 50 per cent. higher than British wages, while the net output per man was actually II per cent. less.
 Again, about one year ago, Mr. Farr, of the American Shipbuil54ng Company, was able to testify that the daily wages for skilled labor in United Sta tes yards averaged 12s Cd per day more, and for unskiued la bor 5s 10d more, than in British yards. Again, if the United States builds a merchant fleet to challenge British supremacy, how will she op- crate such a fleet? In her internal trade she can have protection from outside com petition; but shipping is truly international competitive bus iness.
 American protection cannot cover the ocean. She has not the sailors to man a great fleet, and her internal industries offer such wages that she is never likely to get the necessary sailors. She will have to pay too much for labor and stores-not to mention the building of her ships that she will not be able to maintain a great mercantile fleet without ev- tremeIy heavy subsidies, and if these are proposed to the agricultural in terests will soon be up in arms against them, and those interests count for something in the United States

S0ME FOLKS ARE STILL SEEING
 FAIRY DANCES

Dublin, Nov. 15.-A case just heard in the Ttpperary courts reveals the survival in Ireland of a belief in the fairies. It was claim for compen- sation for cutting trees and bushes around a fort at Shanbally. The claimant said he specially valued these bushes as ''there was dancing and lights there every night
 It was alleged that the defendant had taken away the bushes to evict the fairies. The judge pointed out that if there were any fairies they would visit their anger on the nan who dared to cut the bushes aII not on the owner. He did not accept the fairy theory and dismissed the claim

New York. Nov 15.-Sorrow's fur rows had deepened the wrinkles of years that had dimmed her eyes and stopped her shoulder. In the black of mourning and totyering on the feeble support of an ancient umbrella she moved, Scrutinizing among the far extending rows of flas-shrouded cof- fins that lay yesterday morning along Pier 1, IIoboken.
 She came at last to one that bore the name-plate she had sought Slow Iy he knelt, her lips touching the flags, her hands caressing the pol ished box. 4 prayer book came from the folds of her cape and those who watched saw her lips move in quav- ering offering. Then she bowed her head upon the coffin, her fraiI body shaking with sobs.

Then, tra.ghtening as much as the stopped shoulders would permit, the sray-ha:"ed mother of an Ameri- can doughboy said, with a smile that caught the trickIing tear, He was all I had.

 At Hobokeu, for year, in which the greater part of 2,000.000 soldiers have clambered down the gangplank, victorious heroes, there has been an incessant display of colorfu1 cheer, the blaring of bands. the waving of flags. the Inegaphoning of welcome
 It was a somber homecoming yes terday, and the waves and cheers and welcome calls were packed away, and the T~ayerboCks and bands of mourning and funeral rites brought forth
 During the night there had been removed to the pier from the trans port Lake Daraga, at the bow of which fluttered a black pennant, the bodies of 103 soldiers who fell near Archangel ard f ten sailors who died or were slain in the war. It was the first arrival from the war of any con- siderable number of the men left over there."
 Perhaps the god of mourning thought the canopy of brilliant Amer ican flags that swirled in the breeze from the rafters of Pier No. 1 made too glaring a display for the occasion, for he poured a drizzle that seemed appropriate and that brought outside

MAY IMPORT SUGAR AT
 REASONABLE PROFIT
Maximum Price of 10 Cents a Pound Wholesale Set for
 Beet Sugar.

New York, Nov. 15.-Importation of foreign sugars will be allowed and no prosecutions for profiteering in them will be undertaken under the Lever act except for unreasonable margins of profit the Sugar Equil- ization Board was informed recently in a telegram from Howard F'igg, as- sistant Attorney General at Washing ton.
 The telegram was in respone to a request for the ruling, which set forth that it was receiving numer- ous applica tions for the importation of white sugars from countries like Brazil, the lowest price of which is II and 15 cents pound, duty paid The maximum price that American refiners are allowed to charge for sugar purchased from the board is nine cents q pound.
 Imported sugar, the board explain ed, is readily saleable to manufactIlr- CTS in order to keep their plants go- ing and to rotect their invested capi- tai It is not so much g matter of price, it is said, as the disbanding of their working forces which would necessitate the closing their plants
 Are the sellers who agree to con- fine themselves to a fair or reason able profit, or the buyer who urgent ly needs sugar." the board asked, viola ting the provisions of the Lever act in respect to profiteering? It seems to us that the urgency of su- gar here transcends the necessity of keeping the price at a level at which the foreign sellers will refuse to ship their sugars to the United States
 The board informed the Attorney Generals otfi5e that it was exerting g its efforts to attract sugars here from outside sources, but did not desire to be a party to circumvent any instruc- tons which may have been given to United States attorneys to prevent profiteering.
 1r. Figg's reply said: 'The urgen- cy of sugar her transcends the neces- sity of keeping the price at a lower level below what the foreign seller will expect. Believe importation of foreign sugars should te allowed. Vii! only consider unreasonable margins of profit a violation of the Lever act on the resale of these sugars in the United States
