The 100 Per Cent. Patriot
New York World)


Sir John Fosters analysis of the 100 per cent.
patriot, composed of 80 cent. provincial isn,
so per cent offensiveness to other nations 10 per
cent ignorance and the remainder possibly the hon
est article" will be accepted a fairly accurate
definition of the species in this and all other
.res. Only the question of the comparatively low
percentage of ignorance attributed to him will there
be any disagreement
To the professional patriot, being the only
custodian of national virtue everybody else must
re corrupt. All policies of foreign countries must
irst be subjected to provincial tests and their
ives viewed with suspicion. The more than can
be done to strain international relations and embroil
riendly nations, the higher the quality Of the pa
riotism by that token.
The 100 per cent. patriot has greatly improved
m DR.. Johnson's type. He takes to patriotism not
IS last resort of scoundresm but first OPP
)ortunity of troube-making. The righteousness of
lis patriotism is in inverse ratio to the amount of
he honest article" in his makeup. The nations of
he world would get much better with themselves
it were not for the 100 per patriots who in
he last analysis do than professional lingo

To Gust Americans.

For the present the products of FIVE
we'll known American brands control the
market and are OF wide demand. Ac-
cording TO the report which was COM
piled by the statistical section Of the
Anglo South American Bank at its
branch in Buenos Aires in cooperation
with the Representatives Of the depart
nent Of overseas trade, British manufac-
turers need not fear this competition
once they are prepared 20 begin their
campaigns for the trade they have lost.
II the firms whose products had been
popularized before the war can again
supply the requirements Of the market,
the report states. they can regain their
trade at the expense Of the Americans.
They give as the reason the fact that
the importers are In tho hands Of the
dealers who choose the line Of least re-
sistance. As the British products have
been well known for many years OF the
past, it Is argued that when they once
more appear on the market the dealers
will stock these products IN preference
TO those Of American competitors. Tho
only obstacle to this would be direct
sales by American firms 20 tho smaller
shops and painters, thus supplying tho
demand at the source.

mercial interests generally in China are
engaged in campaign TO induce the
United States Congress to pass law
relieving them from the payment OF In

members OF commercial bodies In the
United States to aid them In bringing
about the passage by Congress of a fed
eral incorporation act for American COM

claimed that they are at a disadvantage
owing to the fact that the British doing
business in China are exempt from pay

to members of Congress in support Of
their appeal
