The British Labor Leaders

British labor leaders, with a few ex-
ceptlons, are moderate men, who OBJ
serve conditions not merely from the
narrow viewpoint Of the labor leader
but from the broader position of na-
tional welfare. Sometimes they lose
control of their followers, but GENERALLY
they prove their qualities of leadership,

New-York tribune., 1919-08-11

At a time when the cry of a
shortage of commodities of all kinds
is heard throughout the length and
breadth Of the land what is needed
more than anything else is increased
production. The trend, according. to
trade reports, is actually in the op-
posite direction, by reason largely of
the labor upheaval. The strike of
the railroad shopmen in different
parts of the country has already
had an effect on some of the basic
lines of industry. In the iron and
steel trade, for instance, the reports
of the last week indicate a reduc
ton in the scale of operations at
the blast furnaces. At moment
when steel production was begin
nlng to pick up after months of
slack, many blast furnaces have
been banked in the leading steel
making centres Of the Middle West
because of transportation difficult
ties. In other sections where rail
road operations have been ham
pered by striking employees en-
bargoes on the shipment of many
kinds of commodities have been put
in force. Such embargoes if long
continued will necessitate sowinc
down of industrial activity through
inability of manufacturer to get
their goods to market.

With the decline in stock market
values came pronounced easing in
the money situation, and call rates
dropped as low as 31a per cent in
the middle of the week. This ten
dency was due first to the falling
New-York tribune., 1919-08-11

off in the demand for stock market
credit, and, second, to the reduction
OF the outstanding stock exchange
loan account resulting from the en-
forced liquidation of speculative ac-
counts. 1T was estimated fort
night ago that the total of the stock
market loan account stood at ap-
proXlmately 81, 100000, an in
crease of about a billion dollars over
the total at the first of the YEAR
At the end of last week it was esti-
mated that this figure had been re-
duced to 81 ,450, 100000. This has
strengthened the position of the
banks and is certain to prove bcne
flclal in the long run, for a reduction
in loans was much desired by the
Federal Reserve authorities to cor
rect a dangerous situation.
Reports issued last week by the
Department of Agriculture bearing
on crop conditions were unfavorable
The latest bulletin on wheat showed
on estimated crop of less than a
billion bushels, whereas the report of
the preceding month had indicated
q yield of 1,l00000,00O bushels
The corn crop, however, ;ooks some
what more promising, although the
consensus of opinion is that despite
the large yields of all the crops there
Will be no surplus to speak Of. These
were factors whose influence on
stock market values were over
shadowed by the greater problem
rising out of the labor crisis. In
commercial lines activity was main
tained. Commercial borrowers con-
tinued to obtain credit to finance
their operations on a basis of 51b
per cent, the same rate that has pre-
vailed for many weeks.

THIS IS LOCUST YEAR

This will be locust" year for large part of the country. The Department of Agriculture says that an unusually heavy brood of the seventeen year locust (cicada septendecim) may be looked for. This is one of the most interesting of all insects, on account of it's long period of development, seven- teen years or thirteen years for it has life cycles of both these lengths. The old notion that the insect can do harm to people is utterly groundless, and the damage it does to trees is usually exaggerated in the popular mind. Sometimes nelWy set fruit trees are killed by It, but ordinarily the dam age is confined to the killing of the small twigs in which the insect lays its eggs. It does not sting the twigs, but chisels out grooves in which the eggs are deposited. Hand gathering of the insects morning and eyen- ing on small trees and the use of a 2 per cent earbolic acid spray will protect shrubs like ly to be injured. Fruit trees should not be pruned this spring

VITAL POINTS
Of ACCESSORIES
TRADE DESCRIBED

Zone Of the vital factors confront
ing the automobile accessorV Jobber
in stocking a line Of merchandise is
the financial standing and CONNER
cial reputation of the manufacturer,
saws Don Z. Campbell, General Man
ager Of the Woodtitc Laboratories,
manufacturers of Spoketite, Toptlte
and Kantmar AutoWash, and one OF
the biggest advertisers on the Paclfc
Coast. r
This" saws Mr. Campbell, els Of
as much importance as the article
itself. The iobber who is about to
order any line of goods, should con
slider carefully whether or not the
firms available for that order are
likely to be in existence five or ten
wears hence This requires no special
powers Of discernment, but SIMPLY a
business-like scrutinizlng OF the pro-
ducer's financial and commercial sta:
tus. The situation then resolves itself
into one Of two things. Either the
manufacturer gives every indication
cf living up to all sound business re-
uLirements or he does not. A declslon
as to business relations in such CIR
cumstanccs is therefore not diff
cult matter. The line Of cleavage is
too distinctly marked to admit OF any
doubt. The coin of integrity and sta
bilitv must ring true or it is coun-
trfeit and unbankable.'
"Again," said the Woodtite Mana
agcr, "no iobber can afford to stock
an article and spend time in sales
efforts, only to realize about the time
results should be at hand, that the
manufacturer has gone out of busl-
ness. Things have got to be stand
ard and hiph standard at that. Only
by absolute merit and established
superiority does product become
standard. TIE others simply do net
count The question Of standard APP
plies Just as much to the iobber as
to the public. The public demands
standard. The jobber has got to meet
that demand, or he is going against
The stream, instead Of with it. Fur
shermore, the iobber, by dealing only
in standard products, is sure of a
standard future, which means solid
ity, reliability, permanence-qualit
and circumstances upon which the
iobber can only afford to build con-
nection for q product"

 Both of these water bugs (they really are bugs) feed upon small ac- quatic creatures. The stinging or piercing beak of the back swimmer is much longer than that of the water boatman and can make painful wound on ones finger.
 Both insects come to the surface for air, but the back swimmers come more frequently than thew ater boat men. Several of these little fellows in an open top bottle present a bril- liant appearance Each insect, as it comes to the surface, takes up a small silvery bubble of air both under the folded wings and on the underside of the body.
