LOOKING OUT FOR OURSELVES.

Whether the temporary injunction re- straining two British aircraft companies and an American agent from dumping nearly s500 foreign built aircraft of an alleged obsolete type and 24,00o engines in this country will be made permanent no one can tell, but it is evident that an effort is being made to prevent the bringing into this country of foreign made goods which cannot fail to have q detrimental effect upon American in- dustry.
 Particularly at this time when there is such a large amount of unemploy- ment in the country and industries are closed or on part time is there need for giving consideration to American inter- ests. That the goods which it is plan ned to bring here from Europe may have been secured at right prices is not to be doubted since they are part of the material that was accumulated during the war and represent surplus which cannot be disposed of otherwise. At the same time if the claims of the ex- perts are true they also represent types which are out of date and therefore an- other reason why this country should be prevented from stocking up with them and destroying business in that line and preventing development in ac- cord with the progress of the times. There is the necessity of protecting the home made products. This can be appreciated by those who are depend ent upon industrial activities. When Europe copies our goods and produces them so cheap that they can be shipped to this country and the American man. ufacturers be undersold, as has been recently brought t2 attention in connec- tion with local firearms, 1t is evident that the time is at hand to protect the American industry and the American standard of living.
 A Meriden concern has recently beer obliged to cut it's working force 75 pel cent. because an influx of German made harmonicas caused a falling off in or. ders in this line. War prices cannot bt expected but American industry need. the same protection that it got while the war was on. That Europe should come back is desired but in order tc hasten the day We cannot welcome thu idea of closed factories and no employ ment or the European wage scales

SHORT WEIGHT.

Win a shortage in some directions and high prices in others, conditions are bad enough without having the con- tlmer imposed upon by those so un-
 rupulous as to give short weight or easure. How general the practice is Of thus swindling the consumer there is TO wny of telling except as disclosures are made. There are those who keep a careful watsh foe their own protection md they count up many dollars tha, they save themselves by keeping a check On shortweight which results through haste and carelessness if not through intention. There are other instances which are not so easy.
 This Is indicated by the situation which has been revealed in Boston where a coal dealer delivered sse in- stead of the 1000 pounds ordered, and Inc discovery resulted in finding out That the dealer was in the habit of guessing at the weight of the coal in.
