Quick and Good Results.

The, sentence imposed upon one
group Of the cut stone contractors
ring ends in a satisfactory way an
other chapter in the good book Of the
Lockwood housing investigation.
That these men should within a
month have been so thoroughly ex-
posed that they were willing TO plead
guilty and pay fines aggregating $50
900 is more proof of the practical
character of the work done by the
legislative committee and its coun-
sci, Mr.. UNTERMYER.
Their plea and punishment are not
the greatest accomplishments Of the
case, however. Not only has the ring
agreed to disband, but its members
have promised to aid the State in its
prosecution of other guilty men.
Senator KAPLAN's demand for Jail
terms for the confessed violators of
the antitrust laws was i'll advised. A
prosecution in which jail sentence
for these contractors was involved
would have meant not only a long
legal struggle but the defendants
silence as to their confederates.
Quite incidentally, the fines of $780,
900 go long way toward paying the
expenses OF the investigation.
Now for few more equally pleas
ing chapters.

the average price OF suiphuric acid
In 1919 was IA marks for 100
kilos and in May, 1920, 1t was III
marks. The sulphurlc acid imports
in May were actually undervalued
about sevenfold. The general rise In
prices Is estimated at about 100 per
cent, and as about 40 per cent. Of the
1920 imports were listed at 1919
prices it appears that imports could
be more correctly stated as about
forty billion marks for the first five
months this year than as twenty
eight billion marks.
But while this would do away with
the favorable trade balance In April
and May it would not change the
general complexion of the returns for
1920. Imports, no matter how calcu-
lated, were smaller in April and May
than in the preceding months, and for
May the exports were more than
double those of January. These two
encouraging facts are equal to vol
tmes OF theory on Germany's prob
able recuperatiye power.

Armenian Relief.
A Statement of the Amount of Con-
tributi0ns Made by America.

TO THE NEW York HERALD: A false
impression appears to prevail in the
minds of great many persons that the
American Government and people have
made large grants and contributions for
the relief of the people of Armenia.
According to tho report made by Mr..
Hoover to the Secretary of State on
July &c. 1920, the Hoover administra
ton has sold on credit TO the Armenian
Government flour valued at S12.SOO. 900
during the period from March, 1919, to
August. 1920. and during the same pc
riod the Near East RELIEF Society has
spent $4.S02.O00 and the Red Cross has
contributed s2,100,000 for the relief OF
the people of Armenia.
Tho Near East Relief Society REPORTS
that It has collected during the last i've
years $41,000,000 for relief purposes in
the Near East, but, as Mr.. Hoover's re-
port shows. the society has spent some
thing like IL per cent. OF what II has
collected for the relief of the Armenians
in Armenia. The Near East Relief So
ciety has possibly spent for Armenians
outside Armenia an amount equal 10
that which 1t has spent in Armenia.
or course the Armenian people are
grateful to America for what America
has been willing to do for them, but.
bearing in mind tho fact that the Ar
menlans have lost actually $4,000 men
in the field of battle, besides the slaugh-
ter OF 100000 men. women and chill
dren during tho war. It would be cor

MAN people In appreciation of what they
have suffered and tried to do in the war
In which America. like Armenia, was a

A Parliamentary Utterance OF Mr.
GOODBYE That Will Live.

FROM the HdtVdD HcruId.
Recently there passed away a. s.
Goodeve. who since 1919 had been n
member of tho Dominion railway COM
mission. He was a man of charming
personality and numbered his friends by
the hundreds. He sat for Kootenay, and
no sooner had the session opened than
a question arose which brought Mr.
Goodeve TO his feet with his maiden
speech. To the amazement of the Lib
erals Mr.. Goodeve literally took Off his
coat and started to lambaste Sir wilfrid
The latter enjoyed 1t hugely. 1t was

tooth and nail. 1t used to be all shadow
boxing.
Mr.. Goodeve was what is known az a
born public speaker" lie had a fine
flow Of old fashioned oratory. He was
also the perpetrator Of one of the his
toric bulls of Parliament. During the
stormy debates Of 1911 on the reciproc-
ity agreement Mr.. GOODBYE in a burst
Of imprisoned oratory referring to Mr..
Fielding said

PETERS picked out the oldest of the

How the Chandelier at the Old Acad-

to hit the eyes of us family circlers

me. I sat down and wrote a note to

Philippines Growing Fast.

The census of 1910 showed the
Philippines to have a population of
8,276,S02. That was 1,S36,S12 less
than the population Of this State.
This years census gives the Philip
pines a population of 10350, $40; New
York, 10,384,S29 The islanders had
come at census time to within 34,1S0
of the population Of the greatest State.
BY this time, perhaps, there are more
people In the Philippines than there
are in New York.
Beyond the distinction Of being APP
parently on the eve of heading the
list of our most populons divisions,
the islands have other reasons for
JOY. Coal at SIG a ton worries them
not. The food problem is simple to
every one Of the ten millions who

Manila is one of the wettest cities of

Pumpkin Pie.

The pumpkin pie season has been
here since Thanksgiving and should
be carrying the peak of its load in
about week. But although the sea-
son is here the pie is here and there
absent, at least in that quality which
the discriminating palate has de-
manded since the Westerner found
his first pumpkin blushlng on the
steppes of Astrakhan. The restau-
rants do their best with pumpkin pie,
but they cannot equal the artistry of
the housewife. Pumpkin pies place is
in the home.
We speak to-day Of the pumpkin pie
because eggs, without which there is
no such pie, have dropped from $1.20
dozen to the purely nominal price
Of 90 cents. AS six eggs are enough
for a pumpkin pie of fair size, As
cents will pay for the eggs needed
therein. There are other ingredients,
such as milk, spices, ginger. -four.
shortening and the like--all Of which,
according to the wholesale quotations,
are to be had at the grocer's practi-
cally for the asking.
The pumpkin itself Is no mean part
OF the pie. In spite Of many cynics
who declare that the best pumpkin is
squash, we adhere to the original
golden ball. The Hubbard squash,
opened with a crashing blow from an
axe between its nineteenth and TWEEN
tieth warts, is not fruit to be sneered
at; but squash IS a squash. disguise
1t as you may. For real pumpkin pie
the world must rely upon the stolen
crop OF the corn fields and not the
sugar pumpkin so often praised.
A pumpkin as It comes from the
natural to the social world Is Of itself
nothing to go wild over. yet its posi-
bllities have charm. A person in a
hurry for pie will cause the pumpkin
Immediately TO be quartered and
drawn and steamed and made into pie.
A person with all winter ahead will
have the pumpkin cut into slices which
are then dried on string over the
stove or In the oven itself. After this
It may be kept In the attic In cheese
cloth bags Indefinitely. Time does not
rob it of its power. In fact, dried
pumpkin may be compared with those
liquors which are. or were, known as
100 proof. IL conveys what IN the
vernacular Is q wallop, except that in
the case OF the pumpkin the wnllop
is purely aesthetic. II is the essence
of culinary joy.
