pooled their interests and merchandise

We publishers feel the full weight of

strained by foreign competition. have ad-
vanced the price nearly five times what

will shut off outside competition, when
conditions in other countries become nor

TAXPAYERS OF
STATE SIGHTED.
1--WE hold that there has been too much
Goodrich prosperity in Indiana and too
little consideration of the taxpayers of
the state. We believe that every man
should pay his just share of the burdens
of government, but we are unreservedly
opposed to the Goodrich idea which
doubtless has been educated into him
by association with advantage seekers,
and which contemplates that the bur
dens shall be shifted from the shoulders
of those best able to bear them to the
shoulders of honest Investors in property
who place no reliance upon what leg
islatoTs may do or may not do.

selfshness, it is an American speaking

TAKES OPPORTUNITY
TO TELL SENTIMENTS
Since, however, this QeSton has been
raised, I would like to take the opportu-
nifty of telling the American people wha.
my sentiments really are. America, in
my opinion is not profteering. The very
exchange which is in her favor to the
extent of thirteen shillings and six pence
to the pound is also against American
manufacturers to that extent in the sale
of goods. In the difference of six shill-
ings and six pence is the price the inter
national banker charges for accepting a
credit in England in exchange for credits
In New York.
II do not dissent from the decision
from the United States treasury to make
no more European loans, nor | think in
reality does the Daily Express. The pro-
posal which has been forwarded in some
quarters to form 2 kind of joint interna-
tional pool for financing central Europe
is also a mistake. What is needed now is
that every country should get back to
normal by paying its own just debts
The way to fight the balance of eX-
changes is for every man and woman to
melt down the trinkets they wear aud
the plate they own and pay the result in
gold in America
such are my views and whatever may
be said of them they can hardly he de
scribed as anti-American. I have always
been a great admirer Of that country. Il
acknowledge to the full her gigantic eff
fort during the war and / admire her
still in years Of peace"

VIVIAN PREDICTS
REFUSAL BY GERMANY

PARIS, Feb. 6.-Prediction that Ger

mails demanded by the allies, was made
today by former Premier Rene viviani
He suggested that the allies waive the
extradition question and substitute a de-
mand for more coal and other supplies
from Germany.
L believe that Germany will refuse to
give up the officers demanded, knowing
that Americas naturalization of the
peace treaty and Englands trouble in

PRAISE FEDERAL
FARM LOAN ACT.
We congratulate the democratic
party for the service it rendered the
country in the passage of the farm loan
act, whereby men interested In produc-
ing food for the world are encouraged
by longtime government loan at reason
able interest rates.
Likewise we extole the wisdom of the
democrats partys leadership in the pas
sage of currency reform measures. The
taking of financial power in this country
from the Wall street autocracy and Its
transfer to the government at Washing
ton, where 1t belongs, marks an epoch
In our history that will ring through
all the ages Since the unhorsing of the
Interests that formerly controlled the
people by currency contraction and OK
pansion. and since the institution of the
regional bank system, panics are contem-
plated only as incidents Of the dismal
past and bank depletions, because of
temporary rights Of depositors, are OBJ
Waited by the speedy transfer of funds
from regional banks by the mere con
alignment of collateral securities.

SHIPPING LAW
RAISES ISSUES
Changes May Be Required
In Reciprocal Treaties
With Other Nations.

Although the United States does
not expect that formal protests
against the operation of the Jones
Shipping Law will be registered as
dispatches from abroad have in
dicated might be the case. there is
ground for the belief. the State De-
partment said yesterday. that more
than a score of reciprocal treaties
will have either to be abrogated or
renewed as the result of the new
law.
The shipping law, It was explain
ed. is a radical departure from the
policy of this government inaugu-
rated in the time of President Madi-
son and which has been observed
up to this time. Under the former
policy treaties were negotiated
from time to time, granting to for
eign nations equal rights with
American shipping in the pursuit of
ocean commerce. The Jones law
contains a number of provisions
which are discriminatory to foreign
shipping interests and which are in
direct contradiction to the terms of
the treaties.
The policy of the State Depart
ment, 1t was announced, will be to
take up the treaties individually
with the respective signatoriessand
see what agreement can be reached
as to their future.
The British government has
not yet presented any protest.
and 1t is anticipated that nothing
of this sort will be done in any
event until Sir Auckland Geddes has
had time to report back to his gov
ernment.

COAL AMPLE,
CUSHING SAYS
Fuel Expert Says No Reason
For a Famine Next
Winter.

Denouncing the tendency to limit
Industrial production by the ca
pacity of railroads to move manu-
factured goods as 'the most insane
policy ever adopted by a sane ma
tion." George, H Cushing, director
of the American Wholesale Coal
Association. in a speech yesterday
before the weekly forum of the
City Club. declared that govern
mental thought is not yet centered
upon the systematic growth of those
carriers to meet the demands of
business"
Rather than allow the carriers
grow to a size commensurate with
the business of the country" said
Mr.. Cushing, it is proposed by pri-
critics and embargoes to pare the
business of the country down to
where il will fit the capacity OF
the starved railroads.
This means" Mr.. Cushing con-
tinued. that having suspended the
growth of the railways. Ii is pro-
posed that we set out deliberately
to stunt the growth of business. By
that means we put the American
nation in a strait-jacket and say
beyond these limits American busi-
ness shall not grow"
Mr.. Cushing concluded by dis
counting the prevalent rumor that
the country wiTT~ face another coal
shortage next winter. He read fig-
ures showing an increase of 7.703.-
900 tons in the production of coal
during the nine weeks beginning
April 1 last over the corresponding
period in 1919. The average weekly
production since last April l was
shown to be 8,946,700 tons.
