Belgium's Support Scarce
ly Makes Up for the
British Detection

Paris, April Great Britain's atti-
tude relative to the advance of French
troops into German territory east of
the Rhine as defined in press dispatches
from London, is viewed by newspapers
here as bitter pill for France, and it
is considered the action of Belgium,
supporting the policy of France, hard
ly compensates for it.
"Pertinax,' the political editor of the
Echo de Paris, writes an unusually
savage article, attacking Premier Lloyd
George, whom he calls ''demagogue. "
He says in conclusion:
"Mr Lloyd George never has forgiv-
en- the policy adopted by France since
January, of being indepndent within
the entente He has bided his time, as
he thinks it is now come. We count
on the clear. sightedness of our friends
across the channel and the deep
friendship we have found with them,
to bring the chief OF the Downing
street cabinet back to an interpreta-
ton of the Anglo French alliance from
which he should never have departed.
Such an evolution was to be expected
of him. He has taken up and dropped
every doctrine, and could the entente
cordiale escape under this ruleY The
English people well know how to force
him to make All exception in this case. "

WERE STOPPED
STRIKES IN OLDMADRID
CAUSED TROUBLE
But Spanish Are Not Heavy
Reading People; Lack of
Advertising ..

Madrid, December 23.-[By The
Associated Press.1-lh almost any
other of the worlds cities it would be
considered calamity to be without
newspapers. Madrid has just passed
through such an experience in a
period of political crisis and during
lockout in Barcelona, the chief
industry city of Spain.
Absence of the newspapers passed
almost unnoticed because the people
of Madrid are not a newspaper read
ing public. Compared with other
western cities of Europe the circula-
ton of the newspapers here is very
small. Many a small town newspaper
proprietor in America would consider
himself very badly treated if his cir
culation looks did not make a better
showing than those of the metro
politan dailies of Madrid.
Well Printed Newspaper.
The A. B. c., well printed paper
with good local and foreign service
and well printed pictures, has a
circulation in the whole of Spain of
about 100000 copies and the pictures
account for it's comparatively large
circulation. Other newspapers we'll
known abroad by name as they are
frequently quoted on foreign domestic
affairs are satisfied with calculations
of from 10000 to 10000.
The advertising columns, too, make
poor showing compared with news
papers of other large cities. An in
come of $4,000 a month is considered
good. The papers are sold at either
five or ten centimos but the govern
ment gives the papers bonus of an
other centimo for each paper
sold, owing to the Increased cost of
production.
Shut Down Due to Strike.
The shutting down of the news
papers was due to a strike of the
newspaper workers. Editors who re-
ceived 500 pesetas a month asked
for an increase of 20 to 80 percent.
Reporters drawing SO to $50 pesetas
demanded minimum of 800 pesetas.
Compositors asked for 20 to so per-
cent increase in their average wage
Of seven pesetas a day. The result
of the strike was that two newspapers
disappeared and two new ones, the
Libertad and the Hoy were born.

TOO MUCH SECRECY
Charge Made BY General Sherburne
Against Shoe Dealers.


M. F. Sullivan Of the Sullivan Smith
shoe store, who is attending the Ma
tionl Shoe Retailers convention at
Boston, writes that over 1000 retail
ers and manufacturers are in attend
ance from all parts of the country.
Mr.. Sullivan is expected back from
the east the first of the week.
OF much interest to the retailers
present at the convention was the ad-
dress given by General John H. Sher-
burne. There is no profiteering in the
retail shoe business in Boston. AS
head OF the Massachusetts, fair price
committee, I have been unable to find
any instance of profiteering in the re-
tail shoe trade, though we have in
vestigated conditions in the shoe
business in detail. The retail profiteer,
i believe does not exist" he said
General Sherburne, however, called
the shoe men to task for the secrecy
with which he declared the retailers
surrounded their business. He de-
clared that hey were doing them
selves serious injury by refusing to
make plain the reasons for their
change in prices.

CREATE BIG TRADE BODY
SUGGESTION MADE BY
HUSTON THOMPSON
Unfair Practices Could Be Dealt
With BY An InternationaI
Commission
Associated Press Dispatch.l


Washington, January 22.-Creation
of an intentional trade commission
to deal with those who seek a world
monopoly and are in position to in
jure not only the consumers in their
own country, but those in foreign ma
tons as we'll, was recommended by
Huston Thompson, OF the federal
trade commission, in an address today
before the Second Pan-American
Financial conference.
Complaints should come through
national trade commissions, Mr..
Thompson said, and each cause tried
before representatives of the inter-
national body not belonging to the
nation whose citizens were involved
in the litigation.
Unfair Trade Practice.
"The definition of what was an un-
fair trade practice before this COM
mission could be found in the trade
practices already condemned by the
laws of many nations, both ancient
and modern" Mr.. Thompson said,
"the rulings of the respective trade
commissions, the trade practice sub
initial lists such as our commission
has already received from some of
our industries, the announcements
of political economists, and above all,
in the common sense of those before
whom the case was presented after
investigation and hearing.
an the universal publicity Of the
findings of such body would lie the
corrective.
Who Would Do Police Work.
81 have been asked who would
police the committing of the offenses.
The answer is the same as in our
domestic business-the competitor.
Is there, not every reason to believe
that under the inspiration of the re-
spective national trade commissions
the industries in each nation would
write their own trade practice sub
initial list of unfair practices just
as they are doing in this countryw
A national trade mark, established
by Congress, as a means of increas-
ing national pride and controlling the
quality of goods exported from the
United States, also was urged by Mr..
Thompson. Failure on the part of an
exporter to deliver goods OF the same
grade and quality as samples would
be sufficient cause for refusing per-
mission to use the trade mark.
