adays from European diplomatic
circles is in one form or another an
attempt to draw the United States
into a sharing of war burdens now
borne by Old World countries. Not
content with the billions of money
and tens of thousands of precious
American lives that were expended
in saving Europe from the scourge
of the Hun, they now would unload
more of their troubles upon us.
Through their friend in our White
House, who seems readily to accept
every un-American scheme submit
ted to him, they seek to lay their
hands on billions of American
wealth and untold numbers of
American lives.

ONE EXAMPLE OF
BOOSTING ACTIVITIES

The amazing progress of Los An
geles as an industrial center was
clearly exhibited in the great indus
trial pageant just held in that city
under the auspices of the chamber of
commerce. Two hundred thousand
people watched for two hours the
most spectacular industrial parade
ever held in any western city. Four
hundred and fifty floats mounted on
motor trucks-many of them unique
and costly-told the story of Los
Angeles industry, covering nearly
every activity imaginable. In a city
famed far and wide for it's production
of motion pictures it far exceeded any
movie" ever attempted by the most
imaginative screen el1etto1.
With characteristic western thor
oughness the pageant represented
every known human enecavor in the
city and reflected a condition of in
dustrial health augurine a great flu
ture for the city and southern Cali
fornia. Manufactured products of
the city and the metropolitan district
of which it is the center, to the
amount of 5000. 000, 900 we're repre-
scented in the various floats making
up the pageant.
Most of this growth resulted from
chamber of commerce activities.
And still there are some who say that
chambers of ale useless.

THE DROP
IN SILVER

With silver quoted at "a cents in
New York today and smelter settle
ments announced at the same figure,
a very natural question arises as to
what has happend to the Pittman bill.
Under the terms of this bill, &C
cording to Senator Pittman's own in
depreciation of it in a speech on the
floor of the senate, and according to
that of Director of the Mint Raymond
T. Baker, silver of American produc-
ton, smelted in American plants.
delivered at the United States mint
at San Francisco or New York or
Denver. The public statement to that
effect vas unequivocal.
All right, then, but how much silver
is going to be delivered to the mint
in an unsmelted condition?
None. of course
And the shelters are settling with
the silver men on a basis of "a cents.
Then how is the silver producer to
get his product to the mint and sell
it for a dollar?
He cannot do it. Hence the dollar
price is just as if it did not exist and.
as long as silver produced in other
countries is to be thrown upon the
market, as London says, he is in
competition with that outside silver.
No one is disposed to question the
good intentions of Senator Pittman,
but until the producer of silver can
be sure of a purchase ser for his metal
as sent to the smelter, the law fixing
the price delivered to the mint at a
dollar is not going to help him IN
bit.-[Reno Gazette.
