New Type of immigration.
From the Indianapolis News.

We are a curious and .complacem
people in our attitude toward inlmfgra-
ton. All during the wal we found
trouble in communities where there were
large foreign co%ntingents. And since
the wal it has often been related, and
generally with truth, that foreigners, ig-
norant OF our institutions n not ap-
preciative of the blessings of liberty,
had started and carried on needless
strikes and brought about various social
disorders. Have we not heard time and
again that we were admitting foreign
ers more rapidly han they could be as
simulated? The old, old story Of the melt
ing pot has been told until it is mean
;ngless. And now the tide Of imrnigra-
ton has set in again unrestricted. We
are to have possibly. dispatches say,
Is, coo immigrants a week landing in our
ports If the shipping facilities can be
found, This means millions more of
peCple coming to our shores, knowing
little of our form of government, for the
most part unable to speak our language,
but gifted, often, in revolutionary tao
tics. We went to much trouble to elm
mate the language Of aliens from our
school system, and made a brave show
of A~mericanizing u people during the
war. Now 1t is proposed to return to
the old ways. And so it will go on VA
til we have another awakening.

The war that set the world ablaze
Leaves no great wrack to after DAYS;
The village. all it's fury spent,
Returns to God the ancient praise,
And Jules wins at The Four Crossways'
His ancient Quarrelsome content.
+ see the gracious poplar trees
Still bow their heads before the breeze
Blown by the old North DER the land;
I see the stretching distances,
And burrows dying by degrees
In the faint blue where belfries stand.
I see barn walls as white as lime,
And roofs that many a summertime
Has Redeemed with a thousand fires,
And mills that turn with clack and
chime,
And the gray spires tina soar sublime
We must nave faiths if but for spires.
The safvage-g.rls that, vet or fine,
Silt brick from Scrap-iron, ere they dine
Dance, and the raucous music trolls!
Their eyes, that fire the blood like wine,
Are bright as any eyes that shine
In any land betwixt the poles.

Official Washington is amused by the
receipt at the state department of a
letter from Bombay addressed to
Thomas Jefferson. late secretary Of
state and master Of patents" asking in
formation in regard to gasoline motors.
But it should be noted that while the
letter is somewhat belated it could
hardly have been sent to a more sympa-
thetic address. Jefferson was as keen
as Benjamin Franklin in regard to me-
chanical improvements of all kinds. In
1883 Thomas Paine, who was an in
ventor as well as a pamphlcteer, wrote
to him from London giving further de-
tails of an iron bridge which he had
designed and concerning which they had
been in correspondence; Paine had just
received a letter from jefferson, and
s.ys: "I thanh you for the many and
judicious observations about my bridge"
How zealously Jefferson tried to stimu-
late science and invention in the infant
United States is well known.

Kaiser Talk That Hurt.

TlOIAs oClOOcI SSIlIuls
In 1908 William Bayard Hale had Sc
cured for the Century a private inter-
view with the kaiser-a rather unguard-
ed, injudicious interview, which would
have offended Catholic south Germany
and all Roman Christendom, and set
his ministers by the ears. 1t was not
so bad as one which was published in u
london paper while this was being set
up here. But it was bad enough. And
when a tremendous European shindy
was kicked up by the London interview,
when the kaiser was warned by his min
listers that he must not speak to other
nations as if he were the foreign office,
when he was spanked and scolded and
put to bed, as punishment for the first
interview--the Germans We're anxious to
get the second one suppressed.
1t was already in pages, and in a.
little more time sheets would have been
shipped for the English edition. The
German government offered to bear the
expense of suppressing it. The Century
editors We're willing to oblige a friendly
government; all America had kindly
feelings toward the kaiser at that time;

Rlowina Financial Mind.

From Armour Magazine, October /.
The manner in which the coming
crops can be ~liquidated will have a
major influence on the money situa-
ton. If they are marketed quickly-a
process which has not been followed out
lately-the strain on the banks should
be relieved in ample time to permit the
use of capital in the production of man
ufactured commodities for the coming
year. In such event, 1t seems to stG-
dents of financial affairs that whole
sale and retail prices will recede very
gradually. If, however, the marketing
of the crops is retarded through the lack
of railroad facilities, or because the pro-
Queer desires to hold his product against
a fallen market, or a the strain
on the banks by the agricultural COM
munities becomes excessive, then COM
modify prices shoul drop sharply and
comparatively quickly. No one has The
temerity to prophesy which course
events will take. For that reason, eX-
IRENE caution continues TO control the
operating policy of all business ano
financial Institutions.

Our Buying Power.
From the Milwaukee Journa

The average American has the idea
that this country is the big bread bas-
ket of the world, and in a measure this
is true. On the other hand, the United
States actually imports more food than
it exports.
In seven months Of 1920, our food i'm
ports were ST. 57, 900, 900, while food ex-
ports during that period were worth
81, 1853, coo. 600. Our excess of food i'm
norts in seven months was in round
numbers 81, 900, 600, 900. Take July alone.
Food exports were s176, 600, 600 and i'm
ports 1892, 600, 900. These are the latest
figures obtainable.
America bought more tea, coffee and
other tropical products than ever be-
fore. But so Unsuitable was the Ameri-
can appetite. so unparalleled our ability
to buy, that we chased the price Of
sugar up to 80 cents 4 pound until even
hungry Europe sent US sugar by the
million pounds. Europe went without;
we used more sugar than ever before.
While surrounding countries were
starving, Holland and Denmark sent US
large amounts of butter, cheese and 9TH
er dairy products. Although China and
Japan had barely enough rice. fer their
own needs, large shipments We're mad
to the United States because of the at
t~raCtive price. Other countries actually
needed this food more. Yet Americans
got it because of their fat wallets, their
enormous buying power.
We do feed the world, but the
world also feeds US. We always buy 10
matter how much the price.
There could be no better proof of
American prosperity than this. Ar.eri-
cas- production is tremendous and what
we can't raise, or make, we buy-frorn
food to every conceivable luxury.

The Red Sun.

When the Red Sun sets in azure dusk,
A carmine isle in an ochre sea-
Its bivouac fires from rock-tipped tusk
Cast their omens i'll down the dull
green lea,
Which warn the lair and tell the wren
Each cliff and dell nears fall again.
When the Red Sun sets in flush red rose,
And the roof of the world is all aflre;
When a burning wall lines the worlds
repose
And the host of life, like an alien sire,
From it's farth'est gate bids the rose
adieu;
Then summer goes out and fall steals
through.
