Foreigners Coming
 to Trade Conference
By HOLLAND.

New York, September 12.--(Special) So great is the interest of the federal government in the International Trade Conference which is to be held at Atlantic City late in September that the Secretary of War MT. Baker has instructed various representatives of the government in Great Britain, France, Italy and Belgium to invite the delegates from those countries to &C., which offers to bring these delegates to this country on government ships.
 These distinguished delegates will take passage at Brest on Monday of next week and one of the best of the government ships now at that harbor will be put in excellent shape to pro- vide every comfort and convenience for this mission. From one point of view these delegates are really special ministers penipotentiary, for they have been appointed by their governments or by the appropriate authorities. Sixty in all will be the aggregate num- Der of the mission.
 All of the countries across the sea which are to take part in this con ference have made choice of distin guished citizens as members of the mission. Great Britain has designated Sir Arthur Shirley Benny who is a member of parliament and the manag- ing director of very large corpora ton. Just at this time when public interest in the construction of Canals, especially the Intercoastal canal has become great, one of the founders of the Manchester ship canal who Is also its first manager Marshall Stevens, & member of parliament is to be one of the representatives of Great Britain. He should be able to furnish import ant and instructive information upon the subject of railways, docks and canals because he is recognized in Great Britain as one of the foremost authorities upon this subject Aus tralia is to be represented by J. c. Jenkins who was formerly Premier of South Australia and John King who is chairman of a very important in dustrial association of Glasgow is also to be present, as one of the representa- lives n Great Britain

the bourgeois class are worse than

The I. w. w. would have you believe
that II you are not Bolshevik, one Of
the Proletoriat, you are member OF
the hated Bourgeoisie.
/. W. w.ism and bolshevism are
built ON generations Of class hatred.
The Non-Partlsan league advocates
class rule by the farmer and common
ownership OF everything but farms. 1t
calls private industry the 'beasts that
prey" off the farmer.
Originally the Bourgeoisie were de-
spised by the aristocracy and the mo-

Now the great homecoming middle

Sugar. Sugar. Sugar

IA A sugar man .says; 'grhe- world Is
short perhaps 5000 O0ostons d year Of
its sugar needs. Europe Is making
less than two-thirds OF Its normal
crop Many regions there are famish-
ed for sugar.
"Some sections Of the United States
now that the canning season Is near
ing Its height, are reporting shortages
Prohibition, with its assured increase In
craving for sweets, has arrived"
Candy was never IN such demand
as during the war and since peace
came. Millions Of people In Europe
who had but little sugar before the war
have acquired desire for more sugar
through closer contact with American
ways OF living. The war proved be-
yond doubt that sugar il main arti-
Gle of diet today and there Is bound to
he greater consumption per capita than
ever before.
Western sugar beet growers have a
wonderful opportunity for development
before them.

The Unjust gsx on Candy :

It N sometimes sought. to justify fax
ON candy on ground that the Govern
ment needs revenue and 1t must be
secured from some source, and. that
candy is one source from Which II can
be secured, and that the public win
stand for this tax. s.sa . 50
This is a special tax which Is in
equitable, unjust and discriminating.
Have things come to such a pass In
this country that congress is dead to all
sense Of fairness and Justice?
In times of peace, with ample oppor-
'tunity TO consider revenue raising leg
lslation, Congress can offer no valid
excuse for discriminating very grossly
against one OF the nations most nee
esary and useful industries.
The question as to whether such a
tax Is unpopular or popular is beside
the issue so far as the justice of tax
ing one industry and not another. Is
concerned. 1t Is the duty OF Congress
to do justice TO all Of the industries OF
the nation In matters OF this kind.
The fact that a thing may be popular
or unpopular Is no indication as to
whether 1t In just or unjust. The line
between right and wrong is fixed and
no human agency can change 1t.
There is no reason why this injustice
should not be corrected at once.

Delicate Mechanism

Despite its scope Swift &
Company is q business of in
finite details. requiring infinite
attention.
Experienced men must know
livestock buying with a knowl-
edge of weight, price, the amount
and quality of meat the live
animals will yield.
Eachmanufacturing operation must
be done with expert skill and scientific
precision. A highly perishable product
must be handled with speed and care
TO avoid ,o5s.
Chemists, engineers, accountants,
and other specialists are required to
take care of our intricate problems.
Alert wisdom and Judgment must
be used in getting stocks Of goods into
the open channels of demand through
our four hundred branch houses.
Branch house organizations must
show activity and energy to sell at the
market in the face of acute competi-
ton from other large packers, and
hundreds of small ones.
All these requirements ofintelligence,
loyalty, devotion to the task, are met
in the personnel of Swift & Company.
Yet the profit is only a fraction of cent
per pound with costs at minimum.

cate human mechanism be improved
