In commenting on the work of the
special session legislature the Steele
County Farmers Press says: made
it a felony for such men as LANCER,
Kositzky and Hall to lie about the
state industries, finances, and depart

There is one consolation, however,
there is nothing in the law that can
make the "Pinkham's Pink Press"
of Tanlac fame, at Fargo, tell the
truth. It's not a question of lying
as it is whether they tell the truth
or boost the league, the former being
the penitentiary offence.

HERE'S REASON FOR
BRITAIN'S EMBARGO

When America ran her foreign trade
balances up to S4OO,o00,0OO a year,
went into the shipping business. and
bought in most Of the American sa-
curities that were held abroad, she
, inferfered considerably with the
wheels Of foreign exchange.
The details Of a situation, which
has been generally known, were re-
eAled before the House Ways and
Means Committee in executive session
by Assistant Secretary Of the Treas
ury Albert Rathbone. He also threw
,sofhe light on the causes OF the British
em6argo on certain American manu-
featured products. which goes into

Added to the foreign trade balance
of S4OO. .0O0, 900, foreign governments
owe US $3.50, ,OOO, 900 q year interest
on the $4,000. 100000 We loaned them.
That makes $3.50, 200, 900 a year Uncle
sam will collect. But, before the war
! The foreign trade balance in our favor
was largely paid by ourselves-that
is, by freight charges which We paid
foreign ship owners, money sent home
BY immigrants, and interest we paid
on American securities owned abroad.
But we have bought in most of those
securities; and we are going into the
shSp business ourselves.

eign nations are going to have only
about $20O,O00,0O0 a year to pay on
the $3.50, 200, 900 they owe us.

GYPSY CARAVANS
NOW USE MOTORS

Even the gypsy caravan is becoming
mOdernized. One hears OF a band Of
nomads "gypsying" through Indiana
in automobiles. and, even more sur
prising, cooking on kerosene stoves
instead of by camp fires, and washing
clothes with electric washing ma
chimes. But this must be an un-
usually up-to-date band OF gypsies.
For 500 years since their first r.
corded appearance in eastern Europe,
the gypsies have been going about the
world keeping curiOusly intact the
habits, character, and language that
modern ethnologists believe they
brought with them from India, and re-
manned always an odd combination Of
picturesque vagabondage and per-
sonal conservatism.
Perhaps, however, these highly mod
ern gypsies anticipate the future and
are beginning, as they traverse the
country. to trade secondhand auto
mobiles as they used to trade horses.
