NOT ACCEPTABLE TO ME"

This is not acceptable to me-
w. w" These words, hastily
scfibbled on the margin of the last
reservation to Article X of the
league covenant, described the sit
nation with regard to peace treaty
ratification. Ten columns of type
could have told the story no more
clearly than those half dozen
words: This is not acceptable to
me"
No king in history ever adopted
a more imeprious attitude toward
his parliament than President VIII
son adopted toward the United
States senate in this particular
matter of the peace treaty He
had a right to prepare a treaty
but not to drive the senate created
to pass upon the document.
The opposition to ratifying the
peace treaty was directly due to
its ineXtricable combination with
the covenant of the league of ma
tions with the presidential COM
mand that no alterations be made
in the sacred document.
Could there be more impressive
illustration of the substitution OF
one-man rule for representative
government at Washington? For
tunately presidents are not elected
for life. The people can change

democratic America.

OBJECT LESSON FOR
EMPLOYERS.
Sherman Rogers in Leslte's.

A large steel corporation In
Cleveland started in its business
with the idea that labor was square
and entitled to the fullest conf
dence Of the employer. There were
no company stool-pigeons in the
plant, no informers or .eavesdrop-
pers. The foreman were put
through a rigorous education that
trained them to be square with
their employees, to place confidence
in their workmen, and to treat
them WHITE. The results have
been little short of marvellous. The
men Immediately realized that
there was no .tattling going on be-
tween favored workmen and the
owner. ......'
The 'laborers in. this Ohio plant
knew beyond all doubt, in a very
short time, that they were being
treated square, knew beyond all
doubt that they were not being
watched by stool-pigeons, and
knew that their employer had con-
fidence in them, The direct result
of this system was that the work
men Immediately placed all their
faith in their employer and the
immediate effect of this newborn
confidence was seen in the strlk-
ingly increased production all oven
the plant caused by the added eftl-
cheney. In fact throughout the
whole works the laboring men in
all departments were listed as loo
per cent,
Bit the benefits derived by this
company by the establishment OF
confidence in their working organ
izatlbns did not stop with increased
efficiency. Having gained the con-
fidence of their employees through
snt1are treatment, the management
al once began familiariZing all the
workmen with the truth concern
ing the profits of the organization
Fortified with the feeling that they
were being treated absolutely
sduare-treated as men, not cogS
i'm a wheel-and realizing that they
had the fullest confidence of theil
employer, the men drove to the
wall all agitators who visited tha'
plant on a trouble making mission
These agitatorE were able to pull
out every plant in the vicinity. but
found it utterly impossible to make
the slightest Roadway among tbs
workers who had undergone the
"man to man, treatment. Not only
were the agitators unable to pull

to rouse the slightest sentiment FOL

the agitators such a cold shoulder
they soon left the plant and hayt

THE COST OF HOLIDAYS.

A ow-visioned statistlcian,
who apparently considers human
beings as mere cogs in the indus
trial machine, has computed the
loss in production which results
from the observance by workers of
the legal holidays and the Satur-
day half-holidays, and has present
ed his findings as 1.-The high cost
Of loafing.' 1t amounts to many
billions of dollars. But it is not
impressive.
In the first place, to call cessa-
ton of work at the time specified
"loafing" is a misnomer. The time
that he spent in his calculations
might have been spent more use
fully. If he had reckoned the cost
to the country of the failure of
vagabonds and the idle rich to do
useful work his study might be
more entitled to consideration,
Employers generally recognize
that the refreshment of the work.
ers, which comes from holidays and
half holidays increases their pro
ducing powers and thus more than
compensate for the falling off in
production when work ceases.
Incessant work is not the chief
end for which mankind should
strive. on the contrary. it would
be desirable if less work were nee
essary, so that people might give
more of their attention to the arts
and sciences which develop sound
minds in sound bodies. The phil
osophers who have pictured ideal
states emphasized that, labor being
more equally Givided, there was
less for the individual workinglnan
to do than under present economic
conditions.
The right solution of the eco
monte loss which the statistician
presumably proposes to avoid by
abolishing holidays is not to de-
prive the steady workers of their
few periods of rest, but TO COM
pei oilers to go to work, and to
encourage those who are employed
to earn what they are paid.

THE PERFECT MOUTH.

Perhaps more than any other

what we make them. To be sure,
there are two ways of interpreting
this-but truly when you consider
how much the shape of the mouth
can be controlled simply by the

habits, then it does seem almost
needless to resort to that other
transformer of mouths, the lip
stick and paint pot. OF course
that sort of thing is all very well
for your moving-pieture star-or
for any other sort of stage folk.

Corresponding to the wheat
growers of the agricultural indus
try are the fifty to sixty thousand
individual oil producers of the
of the United States. AS the basic
source of supply they are farmers
of the oil industry. To them the
refiners must go to purchase we'll
over half of its requirements of
raw material-crude oil-and pay
the price fixed for it by a compet-
tive market. Various circum-
stances have contributed to make
that a steadily rising market, so
much so that Pennsylvania crude,
which could be bought for less
THAN SO a barrel three years ago,
now costs refiners s5.25 a barrel
and the Mid-continent crude, which
was $3.50 a barrel in 1917. is now
worth above SO a barrel at the Well.
To the natural inquiry as to. why
the advance in crude occurred. the
! fifty to sixty thousand American
! oil producers mentioned have a
ready answer. In ten years they
have managed to double their out

ton has galloped far ahead of
them. The number of oil burning
vehicles alone increased fifteen
times, while the production
was being doubled sand every day

Why Gasoline Now Costs More

600 ceased to produce during that
period was less than half the num-
Der of wells drilled and at the end
of the ten years there were just
.240 900 wells in operation.
The figures are significant be-
cause they indicate that still new
oil areas win have TO be found, as
they undoubtedly will be. From
the existing wells there was pro-
duced last year, according to gov
eminent reports, 376, zoe. 900 bar
rels of crude, and the consumption
of this and the 100000 barrels
imported was such that the year
ended with total reserve stocks on
hand of l30,0O0,000 barrels.
Roughly, this is only a five months
supply for the American reflnerles
and at the end 'of the year the
average daily production of crude
in the United States had fallen
from 1,122,0O0 barrels in Septem-
Der to 100000 barrels. ..
All this. of course, relates to ma
tive production alone. American
crude oil produced east of the
Rockies is essentially a refinable
crude from which the preponder-
ant percentage of the gasoline Of
our commerce is manufactured.
The domestic production is supple
mented by imports of considerable
quantities of heavy gravity oil from
Mexico, which crude yields a small
percentage of light products. but
which is principally used to meet
the fuel oil consumption of the
country. In 1919 Mexico sent US
the 55,000,000 barrels of this heavy
| gravity oil mentioned above, but

PAPERS HARD hit.


The print-paper situation does
not rapidly improve. The Journal
bought several carloads in Janu-
airy, paying just twice as much
per pound as in December, A
supply was also contracted for
May delivery at a slightly smaller
figure, because by that time frozen
rivers will have thawed and more
mills be working Reliance was
placed upon another mill, which
has for ten years supplied most
of the paper coming to the Jour
nal, which agreed in December to
shin later this year 80 per cent
of as much as was taken last year.
Now comes notice from the mill
that the plant has been sold to
one publisher, probably of a big
Chicago or New York newspaper
who pale a fancy price in grabbing
the mill for exclusive use. How
ever, the. mill company, with some
conscience left, notified the Jour
nal that there had been reserved
for this paper two cars for the
present year instead of six that
were assured had the plant not
been sold But with all this un-
certainty, the Journal is not worse
off than nearly all of the news
papers. ..-s.
The alarming scarcity of news
print with its attendant increasing
price, which has caused some news
papers to suspend publication and
compelled many to take other
measures of conserving the sup
ply. has directed attention to the
vast supply of pulpw'ood in Alaska.
A recent estimate says the terri
tory has a practically limitless sup
ply of timber, much of which is
good for nothing else but@to con-
vert into news paper. While the
rest of the nation needs the pulp,
Alaska needs the money which the
industry would divert to it, for that
faraway corner of the United States
did not participate in the war
born prosperity of the farming
and manufacturing states.
During the war much was said
about the availability of Alaska
spruce along the coast for air
craft manufacture, and, a forest res
eryation was formed for the pur-
pose of obtaining a supply of such
timber, but the Alaskans who
promised so much in this regard
now acknowledge experience has
proved this timber practically use
less for aircraft because branches
form almost from the ground on
these trees, making innumerable
knots, which sadly interfere with
their usefulness for any purposes
save those for which the roughes'
lumber can be used.
The wood is good, however. fol
pulp making, and relief from thu
paper scarcity is in sight if thu
Alaska forests can be brought int
use, In the Tongass reservation
alone there is more than 10000,
little else than pulp. In the Chug
ach reservation there are also vas
quantities. Most of this reserve
timber is spruce and hemlock, wit
some yellow CEDAR COTTONWOOD
and lodgepole pine. The opinion
Of such resources to business enter
