PARIS PRESS RAPS
PROTECTIVE DUTY
Says Proposed Increase of
Tariff Will Hurt French
Exports.

Paris, Dec. rs.
The debate in the French Chamber or
Deputies this week on the economic sit
uation and particularly the remarks Of
Louis Loucheur, Minister of Commerce
and Reconstruction, wherein he laid the
blame on America and England for not
coming to the rescue of France with ad-
ditional loans, furnishes the text for a
great deal of comment in the French
press. which, while agreeing with re-
gard to the Anglo-American response
bility, shows varied judgment on the
means the Chamber is favoring to pro-
tect French industry.
The idea approved by the Chamber of
increasing protective duties. it is feared,
will lead to reprisals by other countries
which will affect still more adversely
French exports, in whose augmentation
lies the only possible hope for Frances
recovery. With unemployment growing
both in England and in America in con-
sequence of the impossibility to sustain
exports, due to the exchange situation,
French opinion is that both countries.
particularly America, must soon resort
to the plan of reopening governmental
loans, abandoned by the United States
Treasury officials last year, decision
which, the French contend. marked the
beginning OF Americas industrial crisis
The Echo de Panis says In regard to
this point: after having spent here
almost 1.s00 billion francs to wage war,
our allies and associates have not un-
derstood the advantage they, as well as
we. would have had in loan of forty
or fifty billion francs, swhich would
have been sufficient to avert fall In
the exchange and all the consequent
evils. We cannot reproach them. 1t
Is the very force of events which will
instruct them in the principles of soli-
darity.'
The Temps sees lesson for France in
the situation produced i'm America and
in England by the policy of withhold
ing international credits and trying TO
reap the advantages of excessive profits
in coal and raw materials from Euro
pean countries.
This lesson is that any policy of
nature that will paralyze exports always
ends in having a disastrous repercussion
on the entire national industry" it says.
1t doubts, therefore, the wisdom of
protectionism. which is the remedy the
majority of the Chamber now apply TO
Frances own situation, despite the OBJ
jections of the Minister Of Commerce,
who insists that the only relief to be
gained is by increasing exports, to effect
which the price of raw materials must
be kept down. The Temps concludes
at Is, moreover. to be hoped that any
elevation in duties will be only pro-
visional and will not become operative
until after negotiations with the coun-
tries interested and not by one sided
measures If not. reprisals will not be
long in following and we will be assist
ing the extension of industrial idleness
instead of bringing about its conclusion

reward OF $4,000 francs each was
paid to two railway coach cleaners In
st. Lazare by an American named Eric
Westfried of Arkansas for finding a
portfolio containing securities and
money totalling 100000 francs. which
he lost on the Aquitania boat train. He
discovered the loss on Monday and
searched the train frantically. but In
vain. Later In the railroad yards the
cleaners found the portfolio.
Mr. Westfried said he did not con-
slider the reward extraordinary. although
(. represented almost a fortune to the
recipients. In contrast TO this generosity,
however was a case on the same train
in which the conductor received re-
ward of FIVE francs for returning an
envelope containing 100000 francs
which had been left in a book rack by
an American tourist.

the children and their nursemaids have
either gone home or elsewhere for

OF COURSE !!

Senator Harding denies there has
been any threat of rebellion on the
part of former bull moose adherents
"The rank and file of Roosevelt sup
porters are putting their full faith in
our cause" he declares.
Sure they are. Why shouldn't they ?
Of course, it is recalled that Mr..
Harding once said Of Theodore Roose-
welt: "The man is utterly without
conscience and regard for truth, and
the greatest faker of the time"
Of course, too, the former bull
mooser, with Harding as their candi-
date, can scarcely feel as if once more
they "stand at Armageddon and battle
for the Lord" They are standing,
rather, in the cloak room of the United
States senate and battle for Boise,
Penrose and the rest of the old guard
who went down to such disastrous de-
feat in 1912.
If the bull mooseers of today should
in convention assemble they wouldn't
sing the same stirring songs they sang
in 1912. Then it was Coward Chris
tian Soldiers" and Battle Hymn of
the Republic II would be Coward
Penrose Soldiers" now. And if they
insisted on the famous Battle Hymn
tune they would paraphrase the words
to something like this:
Mine eyes perceive the glory of the
senatorial ring,
| used to be against EN- but see it's
not the thing,
So III do as they instruct me, and
their praises will sing,
While our Boise goes marching on.
Of course the former bull moosers
have full faith in the republican cause
There is every reason why they
shouldn't and no good reason why they
should, so why shouldn't they?

GIVE SPRING LEAVES
CAREFUL ATTENTION
Keep Foreign Matter Away From
Them is First Step.
Ample Protection Can Be Given by
Covering With Boots-Lsather or
Good Substitute 10 Best
Material to Use.

The leaves Of an automobile spring
are intended to slide upon one another
when the car is In motion. Many car
owners allow the springs to get dirty,
to go without fabrication and to be-
come very rusty. The leaves become so
dirty that instead of sliding on each
other, they work almost as If they
were one solid piece of steel. Then,
when the car strikes a hole or a bump
In the road the springs are compressed
and instead of each leaf working as
a separate unit, the lower leaves of
a rusty spring are held fast to the
upper leaves. The reaction from the
compression Of such a spring is many
times greater than the reaction of
clean. well-lubricated spring where
the leaves are allowed to slip on one
another as they should.
The first step toward a remedy is to
keep mud and dirt and all foreign
matter away Rom the springs. This
can be done effectively by covering
them with boots. Some supply stores
carry covers to At a good range Of
sizes OF springs. but if you can't buy
them already made, you should be
able to make them yourself, sewing
them together of leather or a good
grade of leather substitute. advises
Motor Life Magazine. The advan-
tage of the latter material 10 that 1t
Is much cheaper than leather, and be-
ing waterproof, It will keep dirt and
moisture away from the springs. 1t
Isn't very big job to make suitable
spring covers. especially If you can
get some of the members OF the fam
fly interested TO the point that they
will sew the covers together on the
sewing machine. Since the lubrics-
ton on springs protected in this way
will remain in place very long time
and will not gather grit and dirt, the
slight expense and trouble which the
making and fitting OF the boots will
entail will be well worth the effort.
