Ministry Secretive.
The process of turning govern
ment planes to civilian uses, by sale
or otherwise, is moving slowly, &C
cording to information obtained
from the air ministry. The status
of the entire ministry is somewhat
uncertain, because the finding of OBJ
vious and unavoidable instances of
extravaganza in its administration
has given added impetus to the gov
eminent policy of retrenchment.
So while the civilian flying divi-
sion of the ministry is uncertain re-
garding the extent of its staff and
plant equipment it is hedged by
many military reservations. Many
of the planes, admirably suited for
adaptation to commercial uses, have
engines or other equipment which,
for military reasons, the government
has decided should not be released
for general use, examination and
possible copying by foreign powers.
No More Subsidies.
The government, being gravely
concerned with eliminating all forms
of subsidy and stopping all leaks,
has not considered the subsidy ques-
ton, but they have announced a Sc
ries of prizes, totalling 100000, to
encourage development of CONNER
cial types of machines. To encour-
age international air transport the
Daily Express has offered a prize of
$50,000.
On all sides it is admitted that the
taxation outlook, the continued la
Dor troubles and uncertainty regard
ing government trade and industrial
policies has frightened the purses of
the money kings. The bankers are
the determining factor in most ven-
lures, and Just now England's bank
ers are suffering from more than
usually violent attack of conserva-
tism. They are putting a powerful
brake upon commercial air progress

Washington, Sept. 27.-More than

Democratic Women
Formulating Plans
For Next Election

Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. IT,
With the estimate of 100000 wom-
en- coming into the ballot before the
next presidential election, the exec
utive committee of the democratic
national committee, which has been
in conference here two days, devoted
most of its discussion to the best
methods of reaching the women vot-
ers. The committee adjourned and
most of its members left for their
homes.
The plan proposed by A. F. Null
len of Nebraska, that declaration
be made in favor of abolishing the
two-t thirds rule to nominate candi-
dates in presidential conventions and
substitute the majority rule, was not
voted upon. Notice was served on
the national committee, however,
that the plan would be submitted
to it.
Mrs. George Bass, head of the
women's bureau, discussed plans for
the political education of the pros
pective women voters. She said
that funds could be raised by pre-
cinct tax where there are organiza-
tons of women. She suggested that
10 cents per capita would yield a
fund of 100000.
In discussing her political views
Miss Bass declared that women ia
vored a man with ideals and the
courage to urge them," and point
ed to President Wilson as an ex-

Hitchcock is Savage discovery; so
was the unforgettable Gertrude
Bryan of Little Boy Blue.
"Of course all these players had
talent. What they needed, and what
Colonel Savage provided, was the
opportunity to display that talent.
But more important still-and here
is the quintessence of the Savage
idea of stage successfully needed
preparation for opportunity. This
is what the student chorus OF See
Saw aims to do-to prepare young
players so that when opportunity
knocks they can not only open the
door but walk in.
Twelve young ladies were select

the ensemble of See Saw and to
each he unfolded his plans for the
seasons grind 1t was an unwrlt-
ten law of each contract that this
grind should be attended as regu-
larly as theater performances. Seven
of the girls were just out OF col
lege or finishing school, and they
readily entered into the spirit OF
the new course of study. The other
fve-ambitious girls who had chorus
experience but wanted to mt them
selves for speaking roles-Were even
more eager to begin.
First, Colonel Savage appointed
each young lady an understudy to
one of the four principal roles IN
See Saw'-leading woman, SOU
brette, heavy and grand dame. 10
me fell the duty of conducting Nun-
derstudy rehearsals twice a week,
and giving the girls the tundamen-
tails of stage technique. frequently
Mr.. Savage himself will conduct
these rehearsals, and at the end OF
the season he will call a series OF
understudy performances IN which
each girl will be given chance to
play the role she has mastered: II
her work is good she will be gwen

the opening of this unique institu
ton last week at the George M.

his newest musical PRODUCTION, See

ed his student, chorus on their sea-

The first scholars at Mr.. Savage's

billing which labelled them beauty

youth and good looks, no one sus-
pected-nor expected-more than
girlish charm and coquetrry from
the "See Saw" chorus. They were
an attractive part of a tempting
whole-that is of an up-to-the-nlin-
ute musical play.
Naturally, the chorus is but a
small part of the general whole. But
Colonel Savage's revelations as to
his new school for young ladies'"

the front. Let John Mckee, gen.

London, Sept. 27.-The makers of
the mighty masters of the air with
which England swept the western
front almost clear of enemy flyers
have turned their great plants to
peace time needs. The factories
which turned out bombers and bat
tie planes and which were expected
to make England mistress of the air
in commercial way are now making
furniture, automobiles, canoes and
rowboats. There are barely half a
dozen plants in England which are
making commercial airplanes.
Traditional Conservatism.
Traditional British conservation is
depriving Britain of the chance of

lenged in the newest virgin field of
commercial endeavor, the perfection
and making practical of commercial
transportation through the air.
While flying in England is con-
fined to the chartering of planes for
business trips or advertising ven-
lures and to the $40 Commute dips"
of the seaside resorts, Germany has
established regular passenger serv-
ice and an air mail route opening be-
tween New York and Chicago forms
the backbone of projected system
of routes that will sweep the United
States.

One Of the Most widely Read Economists
In Great Britain and Member of
The Famous Sankey
Commission.

Commission.
London, Sept. 26.-So rapid are
modern trade developments that we
find some difficulty in realizing that
ds recently as 1885 the United King
dom produced as much iron as the
United States and Germany put to-
gether, ard that, after the war broke
out, the relative position had
changed so greatly that Britain had
fallen to the position of a bad third
in the world of iron, with America
easily first.
America was increasing its lead
as producer very rapidly when the
war began, and the circumstances of
the European struggle were such
that Europe made enormous sacri-
fees, while America made enormous
gains.
This is not said by way of re-
proach to our great ally, for we
know quite well that if the war had
unhappily continued for another
year the United States would have
suffered heavy losses. Nevertheless
the actual facts of the case are per-
fectly plain. ~
American Gains.
During two and a half years of
neutrality America provided the al
lies with food, materials and NUM-
tons at very great profit, and can
celled its old time Indebtedness to
British investors.
At the closing stages of the war
America then took up the burdens
of financing the allies, but not I'M
til Britain had advanced something
like $8,750000000 to our friends in
Europe. In addition to selling out
our dollar securities to finance Eu-
rope we have become largely in
debted to America.
As with trade. so with shipping.
Britain lost 100000 tons by enemy
action, while the United States lost
only $4,000 tons. At the begin
nings of the war the United States
ocean mercantile marine was
negligible quantity; today it is
good second to our depleted tom
mage.
Before the war it was German
competition which was the chief
concern of our exporters. Today
the talk is all of American compe-
tition. We hear of contracts being
lost to America at home and abroad.
Pictures are drawn of America
becoming the workshop of the en-
tire world. That the American
trading position has been profound
ly altered by the war is undoubtedly
true. We need not be surprised if
the facts fill many observers with
alarm.
Certainly it is not within the
power of the United Kingdom to
win back the industrial supremacy
which had departed before the Eu-
ropean conflagration began. The
natural resources of America are in
comparably greater than Our own.
We have to earn by expectation a
large variety of essential materials
of which America is the chief pro-
Queer in the world. These are facts
which it is not within the power of
men to change, and it is idle to de-
plore them.
Existing American commerce is
of course abnormal, and we should
not allow ourselves to be unduly
impressed by it. America is feed
ing and supplying Europe without
possibility Of immediate material
payment. The facts are quite ex-
traordinary.
The latest detailed analysis I have
from America for month gives us
