WHAT is the best advertised thing IN the
w world? Think of all the we'll advertised
things YOU have read about in the advertising
columns Of your favorite newspaper and the
most successful weekly in the world.
And YOU won't have it, for the best adver-
tised thing in the world is the thing which
has the advertising you cannot buy.
The best advertised thing in the world is
bolshevsm.
IL YOU made n soap or an automobile or
any other article of commerce, what would
YOU give for a name 80 novel, so pro-
nounceable, so likely to arrest public atten-
tion as the word Bolsheviki, with its absurd
plural ending in "f'?
What would you give to have England,
France, Italy and the United States SOL
emnly invite you to a conference on some
island in the moon bearing the absurdly un-
real name of Prinkipo?
What would you give to have them then
run away from their own conference?
What would you give to have them block
| ode YOU, supposing you could live through it?
What would you give to have the name OF
YOUR article on the first pages of all the
newspapers daily for year?
| To have the United States Senate denounce
il without cessation?
To have all the presidential candidates in
| the United states make your article ar

And II your name was Trotzky and you
| had descended from Mars carrying a cake Of
YOUR boshevism with you, upon a ray o.

posited you in the Tsarskoe Selo, what woult
YOU give to have all your enemies out O.

ENROM the standpoint of distribution this
country suffers from its size
Regional specialization in production has
brought about the long haul, at steadily rising
freight rates, stale foods, idle lands near at
hand and high prices.
Regions have behaved like trusts, under
selling competitive regions and then charging
high prices.
The West, with grass that cost nothing,
undersod the East in beef and drove the
East out Of the market
When the free grass disappeared the West
had the market, had the distributing system
geared to its requirements, had the knowl-
edge of the industry.
Inertia guaranteed its virtual monopoly.
And result is high prices.
The same thing has happened in other
commodities.
What is needed is decentralization.
Perhaps high freight rates will be a bless
ing.

power Of the dollar, SO they may be
expected to procrastinate in making
downward rcadjustments, even where
they are justified. Broadly speaking
public utilities as class seem unques-
tionably better off now than at the
peak of prosperity in this country.
Effects of the widespread liquidation
in business would be much more pro-
nounced in the money market at this
time were it not for the unusual de-
mands for credit for the payment of
taxes and for the needs of the Treas
ury. Throughout the nation prepara-
tions are being made to meet the De-
cember 10 payment of Federal income
and excess profits taxes, and have been
responsible in measure for the flow
of funds to the interior lately which
has temporarily frightened the situation
locally. In addition the Treasury is
selling a new issue Of certificates
There are, of course, offsets, but the
heavy shifting Of funds incidental to
the payments soon to be made is a
money market factor that cannot be
overlooked.
1t Is the common banking view that
with the beginning of the new year
the money position will be easier. The
January / settlements will have been
completed and there should by that
time be a substantial return flow Of
funds to New York from the interior
Bankers, however, insist that a 6 pei
cent call loan rate in these times must
be considered low. In other words,
there is not likely to be a return for
long time to the PA and 3 per cent
rates Of pre-war days. AS for COM
mercial money, the demand is expected
to fall off after the turn Of the year
With the holiday season over, rapid
liquidation of retail stocks is antici-
pated, which should help the credit
situation.

There promises to be considerable activity in oil development in the Territory during the next few months, as several of the companies which have kept up their assessment work during the many years that the land has been withdrawn, have filed on their claims, with priority right to lease them under the act recently passed by Congress. says the Cordova Times.
 The Chilkat Oil company has had patent to it's ground and has sunk twelve wells, eleven of which are producers. None of these, however has been drilled as deep as the company intends to go, and the work will now be pushed to ascertain what can be found in oil at much greater depth.
