Fewer Figs Reach Market.
The fig yield of the vilayet Of Alden
has arisen from approximately 5000
tons raised on 10000 acres Of land
about thirty years ago to about $4,000
tons raised on $4,000 acres. However,
this advance in supply has not kept
pace with the demand. and prices of
figs have steadily risen. The big pro-
ducing areas are, under normal condi-
tons, exclusively tapped by the Otto
man (Aiden) Railway company's sys-

Protection of Our Water supply

sewage from along the Brandywine, IN

city, therefore, faces the duty OF protect

this form of contamination. Two plans
are proposed Enlargement OF the sewer
to sufficient capacity, or transfer VI VIC
intake of CITY water from the Brandywine
to a pointabove Rockland Dam, where the

PRESS COMMENTS.
WHAT IS OUR DUTY

And how can we maintain position OF
leadership in the world if we refuse to
march with the world9 There can be no
leadership without a following. II all
the other nations of the world unite Tor
the common interests of the world and we
take our path alone, where will 1t lead usl
Obviously not with them, nor IN their
direction But aside from these consid-
erations, which concern us materially as
we'll as ethically, how would we conduct
our international relations under the
conditions that would then obtain1 we
would be outside of the League OF Nations,
without voice In its government, but we
would be controlled by it. We could
not escape subjection to the international
rules which the other nations would
adopt voluntarily. but which we would
have to accept perforce, or be outlawed.
The others, being bound by their agree
ment in the League could have no relations
with us that were in conflict with the
provisions of the compact.
The members of the League abrogate
all understandings or obligations incon-
sistent with the terms OF the covenant
| and agree not to enter into any engage
ments inconsistent with 1T. In case ol
| diSpute with any other nation we should
| have to submit our cause to the league
| If We could not settle NJ ourselves, and
would have to abide by it's conditions:
or if we did not and went TO war would
have to face the combined opposition
| of the world In short, the world would he
| organized for cooperation on agreed lines
| and VIC would have to deal with 1T upon
/ those lines or not at all
The United States has always been
foremost in all movements for the promo
ton of international comfy, for inter-
national cooperation for various purposes
and particularly for the advancement OF
| peaceful civilization, but all such gov
ernmental movements now will be IN the,
hands of the League of Nations, and we
if we remain out, can have little or no
part in them.
Can We stay out? Can we afford TO
stav out? Regardless of preferences can we
afford to doit? No doubt, until we reach
decision the door will remain open TO
us on any reasonable terms we may name,
for now they want US, but II we should
definitely decline to enter, the door would
then be closed to us except upon then
terms.-St Louis Globe-Democrat.
