TOO MUCH MONEY

Sometimes we wonder if it is good for the Anleri-
can people to have so much money
Of course the natural instinct of man is to ac-
cumulate much money as possible, and money is
a decided necessity these days.
But it is possible to have too much of good
thing.
The war has made America fabulousy rich, the
envy of all nations, Men who in 1914 had nothing
now comfortably we'll off. Others who had
modest sum six years ago are rolling in wealth.
The result? You see it every day.
In the cities it is more apparent than in the
country towns. In the big cities manufacturer
viii produce no middle ran viii distribute, and no
merchant will sell M article at reasonable profit
All seem to want to. get rich quick.
Employees demand prohibitive wages, work
about as they please and in many are becoming
abort as inefficient as could be imagined Instead

The war produced the profteer, and for the sake
of easy money be refuses to loosen his grip upon the
country.
Buildings are thrown together in slpshod man.
ner and inferior materials are used all for the sake
of cutting expenses and increasing profits to ab-

In the manufacturing world it is the same Uual-
ity is sacdfced for profits or where quality does not
prevail the price becomes almost prohlbltlve.
Of course there are some exceptions to this rule
but exceptions are few and hard to find.

ButIwe have faith in America and in American
people.
We are in the temporary grip of hysterical mania
for the rapid accumulation of wealth. but we believe
that this mania will pass away in time and permit
return to the sane and rational methods which pre-
vailed prior to the outbreak of the war.
But it will reiuire time and we must employ IN

UNDERSTANDINGS OUR SHIPS OFF THE SEAS

Under American navigating laws where Is per
cent of crew must speak English and all must belong
to the Seamans Union money paid out each month as
wages on an American tseamer is 3.4 times as great
as that paid out on Japanese steamer OF the same
tonnage, according to compilation made by W. j.
Jones' president of the W. J. Jones Stevedoring Co.,
of the expenses Of the American steamer West Nav
aria and the Japanese steamer Ka1ShO Maru which
during the past week have been lying within a few
feet OF each other at Clarke Wilson Lumber COM

and representing their respective governments IN the
contest for the trade supremacy of the Pacific.
On the American $500 ton steamer West Navarro

month"; while on the Japanesesteamer Kaisho Maru
of 1914 tons 81 men are employed at total monthly

efficiently and economically than any other nation
and can have the commerce of the Pacific merely for
the taking.
