America and World Trade.

James Henry Thomas, a member
OF the British parliament, has re-
Gently returned home after a visit to
this country made for the purpose
of observing American conditions.
He advises his countrymen to look
alive. In an interview published in
London newspaper he says:
Everything have seen in Amer
lea, taken in conjunction with
events now occurring in this coun-
try, convsnces that we shall lose our
commercial supremacy unless we
drastically change our political
methods. Throughout America |
saw conclusively that the fullest
preparations were being made to
capture our commercial supremacy.
What the people of this country
won't realize is that America is in a
position to hold us up for ransom.
The United States does not need to
import much raw materials, and her
economic position therefore is un-
rivaled today"
We may make home allowance
for what may be called diplomatic
exaggeration. Mr.. Thomas pur-
pose was to throw a scare into
cOuntrymen; to wake them up fully;
to get them going at top speed and
with all their might in the race for
world trade. 1t is bound to be a
great race. The stakes are enor-
nous. After nearly FIVE years of the
wastes of war. the world needs many
things. and will continue to need
them in quantities. And the coun-
try able to supply them at reason
able rates and of the proper qualities
will flourish. England is an old.
and has always been very success
full trader. She has studied the
markets OF the world closely. and
catered to them most profitably to
herself. She hos grown rich and
powerful as the reward of farsighted-
ness and intelligent industry. She
will soon be in her old form again.
The war did not reach her shores.
Except through few aerial bonn.
bardments, she escaped the property
distinctions of the intense struggle.
She has but to ring the bell. there
fore, for full speed ahead to be plow-
ing her way along again in the old
fashion. We are comparatively a
new entrant in the contest. At the
close of the civil war we decided
upon policies of domestic develop
ment. Our home possessions were
large and varied, and of very large
value. Our merchant marine had
all but disappeared as a consequence
of our prolonged and expensive in
ternecine strife. So it was on land
that we began to show our conspic-
uous capacities. We are now so
we'll prepared to return to the sea
and seek trade abroad that those
proposing this policy receive a very
sympathetic hearing. An American
merchant marine soands good. 1t is
subject of requent discussion. As
one of the results of the war the
war the necessary ships are in ex-
istence. and their operation in mer-
chant service is an interesting SUBJ
ject to all. Let US hope that con-
gress after the coming recess may
buckle to the problem. and enable

WAS THE C1TY EI.EcrIoN LEGAL

City Attorney Roberts has rem
dered an opinion that the election
last fall was legal. We gracefully
submit Notwithstanding two other
Ashland attorneys OF high legal
standing still hold that the election
was absolutely illegal.
AS a technical matter City Attor.
ney Roberts is considered an arm Of
the court and as such the city coun-
Gil is justified in acting on his opin-
ion, right or wrong, until the mat
ter is decided by the court.
The council may be held legal,
not by virtue of the last fall election
but by grace of a constitutional pro-
vision that an officer Shall serve
until his successor is elected and
qualified. Now II the council will
have the regular councilman, Mr..
Lamb, resign and will fill the va
cancy by appointing Mr. MCGEE we
will rest content on the legal phase
of the city council.
However, we are at a loss to know
on what theory Mayor Lamkin and
Mr.. Banta clutch to the City Attor-
|ney's opinion on the legality OF the
city election to save their political
hides since both of them have utter
ly discredited legal opinions by At
torney Roberts by asserting that the
whole illegal mess was occasioned by
the council relying on his opinion as
to how to hold the two charter
amendment elections wherein they
now admit the elections to have been
absolutely void. II looks as tho the
Mayor and Mr.. Banta are making
Attorney Roberts their monkey to
lpull their chestnuts out OF the fire
and that the attorney is willing to
vicariously fall for it. Yet we do
not find any excuse, even in the
opinion Of the self-sacrificing city
attorney, for calling the last cleo
tion in such manner as to exclude
opposition in the election to the am
billions of the astute mayor and his
political side partner, legal as the
city attorney holds, or illegal as all
other local attorneys believe.
II we were a party at interest and
