Editorial

There appears to be a
direct proportion between
education and the produc-
tive activities OF a nation.
Statistics show that over
81 per cent OF our total
population leave school
before comp lie ing the
eighth grade. Figures from
the Department of the In
terror show that IS per
cent OF our citizens earn
LESS than SIS per week.
1t is also a fact that only
50 per cent of those grad
uating from the eighth
grade go farther. And only
81 per cent OF the workers
of the nation earned more
than SIS per week up to
May last year.
Carefully gathered statis-
tics are a good thing to
tie to. Don't these show
that the way OF improve
ment in our industrial life
lies through education?
Let US keep our children
interested in their books.

during the war have broken away from
their old liberalism very seriously; they

they have harried aliens without much

We can, however, assist it In certain
ways:
u. One is to develop the circulation of
American books in England and English
books in America, because these books
embody the spirit of the people, and one
way Of causing two peoples to agree Is to
remove their mutual sense of strangeness.

that British policy tended more and more
towards democratic government, which he
despised and distrusied You remember
bow he buttressed up the eastern side of
his Prussie Acid Empire by an alliance
with Gar Alexander the Third, whose
support he obtained by soaring him with
the spectre of democracy stalking through
England and Americai
"An alliance between Germany and
America, whether OF political or an in
teilectual character, in pre-war days could
not haze happened, simply because two
nations SO dissimilar in temper and in
tention could not live together in amity,
but only in antagonism or perhaps in
the submission of one, through conquest,
to the other. Men demented with the
mania of owning things, as Whitman put
it, can hardly be expected to appreciate
the point of view of men to whom Co
operative enterprise is the supremely i'm
portant thing
"FamiEarity with our literature has
helped to maintain bond Of some sort
between England and America; and many
Of US here in Great Britain and Ireland
are learning TO know more of America
from the works of Mr. Winston Churchill,
Mrs. Edith Wharton, Mr.. Ernest Poole
and, l would add, o. Henry. But there
IL no means under Heaven whereby men
may so well get to know each other as by
personal contact, and no men SO quickly
absorb the spirit Of another race Us young
men.
Lately, in Devonshire, met mum
Der of young American officers who were
spending their Easter vacation in walking
along the northern coast Of that beauti-
full country. A thousand of these young
officers are learning their lessons at Vari-
ous universities throughout these islands,
and | wish that thousand young Brit
ish officers were learning their lessons at
American universities. They told me that
their visit to Europe had very materially
modified their views about European
people.
"Ail of them were Wilson men to a
man, and they were not merely not Sen
ator Lodge men, but they were extraor-
dinarily opposed to that gentleman's pol
icy. They had come to Europe with an
old feeling of romantic friendship with
France and with an old feeling of roman
tie abtipsthy to England. They had
thought of France as the land Of La
fayette and of England rs the land Of the
German Georges, and they told me that
they had always imagined that English
people were stuck up and cOnceited.'
When they thought OF an Englishman
they thought of the 'haw,haw, God
damme' Englishman Of the American
farce! Their school books had given them
queer beliefs about Englishmen.
81 am afraid that the French peasant
and the French shopkeeper have success
fully modified their romantic affection for
France, but | am glad to think that the
English people have successfully cor
rected their eontemptuous opinion Of
England.

1.-THE State and the Nation"
l T EARLY twenty years ago Edward

NJ EARLY twenty years ago Edward
~ jerks contributed to the Temple
Primer series work entitled A Short
History Of Politics that met with unex-
pected success but which is now out Of
print. Owing TO belief that the ques-
ton presented at the Peace Conference
through the introduction Of the plan for
a League Of Nations has interested read
er -0re than ever before in the problems
of international politics and what govern
ment really means and how it has come
about, Mr.. jerks has amplifed the matter
in his previous work into n volume en-
titled The State and the Natios, in which
the reader can discover how man grew
from primitive state, politically and So
cially, into living under such forms of
government as We know to-day. In brief,
this is a story of mans social and political
evolution.
After stating The Subject and It's
Terms TO introduce the reader to his point
of view, Mr.. jerks goes back to Primitipe
Institutions, which he treats in one part
of the text To PatriarchGl Institutions
he gives six chapters, beginning with the
state of Ktnship through Males and car
rying them up to the point of describing
the beginnings of Commerce and Crafts
rnanship, under which last term he means
the guilds of the Middle Ages.
The third part of his work is devoted
to Political Society. which traces the birth
of the State, the States relation to Feu-
dalism, the early political institutions of
western Europe, and the relations Of the
State to public order, political representa-
ton, legislation, property and industry.
The last two chapters in this division Of
the book are given TO The Kinds Of States
and Proposal, Of Change, this last being
devoted to the problems presented by the
League of Nations idea. Mr. Jenks's work
is thoroughly British, and although he
says kindly things about Us as 4 people
he recks little of our learning and the evil
denees of it in book form in his refer
ences. Moreover, he moves in a very lin
tied field in his study Of primitive man.
The book leaves an impression of con-
fused, rather than a comprehensive, sum-
mary Of its subject.

RACE RIOTS. In CHICAGO
TWENTY-FOUR ARE KILLED IN
CLASHES SINCE SUNDAY;
NEGROES LEAVING
FOR SOUTH

Race riots have broken out in
Chicago.
Reports sent out Wednesday, placed
the number Of dead at "a. About 16
Of this number are negroes.
On Sunday some playful white per-
sons amused themselves for time by
throwing small stones ut some negro
bathers. who, it is alleged, had tres.
passed on the white bathing beach.
This started fight that led to the
negro quarters the city. where one
person Of each color was killed.
The black belt Of Chicago compris-
es 25 square miles and contains verv
few whites. On Monday the trouble
started anew and has been raging
ever since. Seven persons were
killed on that day and night. Tues
day rioting broke out in various and
distant localities. twenty and thirty
nights were going on at once, thus
Keeping the police in patrol wagons
most Of the time.

ana $500 troops were sent from

to be in readiness if wanted. Tkr
police claimed to be able to handle
the situation. 1t is thought that the
worst of the trouble il over. How
ever the militia will be kept in the
barracks until there is no further
likelihood of clashes.
On Wednesday morning the sta
tons or railroads leading Southwark
were crowded with families Of negroes
many Of which were loaded down with
bedding, clothing and even furniture.
ihey were buying tickets to points
south OF Mason and Dixon's line.
most Of them for Nashville and

$2l PER BALE LOSS ON COTTON

In every cotton county farmers
should at once look into the question
OF better warchousing facilities. The
recent marked advance in cotton
price show how great an advantage
is possessed by the grower who i'm
times Of depression can ware
house his cotton, borrow on
the receipts and wait pa
ticntly on the Lord and vindication.
The waste and folly Of leaving cot
ton out in the weather have
also been illustrated in the
thousand cases this season.
Just for example. take the case Of a
farmer whose experience we have
just heard Of. lie left five bales of
cotton out in the weather last fall,
and when he went to sell it recently,
400 pounds had to be picked Oft az
rotten cotton and sold for ten cents
a pound. In other words, nc got only
$40 for this 400 pounds when ne
should have gotten $I2O, his loss be-
ing $50. He also had to pay $5 bale
Tor picking and rcpackinR the cotton.
Loss. $25. Total loss on these two
items, $IO5, or $2l bail, that be-
ing about as much IA whole bale
sold for twenty-five years ago!
And it is probable" said our friend
who witnessed the transaction, that
the farmer also had to take a half
cent pound less for the rest Of the
cotton than he would have received
for it II it had been properly stored. j"
The saving from country damage"
il only one Of several advantages Of
fered by the cotton warehouse, but
this advantage alone should insure
the, early establishment OF u great
number of new warehouses all over

GOVERNMENT WILL
DISTRIBUTE SUGAR

The War Department has sold to
the United States Sugar Equalization
Board 37,000,00O pounds Of refined
sugar. This sugar will be placed on
the market at once to relieve the
shortage that is being caused largely
by boarding. George A. Zabriskie,
President Of the Board, declares that
there is plenty Of raw sugar in the
country and that the price should not
be above II cents. The refineries are
now working night and day and their
combined output is al, ,175,0oO pounds
daily. The refneries have not sent a
pound of sugar abroad in two weeks
and will not send any until the home
market is supplied.
Sugar is abundant in the United
States and II it were not for profiteers
and nervous housewives encouraged
to hoard it there would be enough for
every legitimate demand and thirty
day reserve supply in addition" de-
clared Mr.. Zabriskie.
"The chief factor in this apparent
shortage, which 10 temporary, is
canneries and confectionery factories
which failed to anticipate their nor
NAL demands and held Off ordering
their sugar in the expectation that
prices would be lower. They knew
! the refineries could not sell above the
fxed price Of 8 cents. Another ele-
ment that as yet has not affected
the situation is the marine workers
strike, which we hope will be settled
bcore the entire feet Of sugar ships
is tied up in Atlantic and Gulf ports
MS>Thile we arc reaching by radio
dSs6a all the vessels possible and di-
verting them to Cuba to bring back
raw sugar.
