TREASURY NEEDS FRIENDS

Senator Warren, of Wyoming, chair man of the senate appropriations committee, declares that the funds needed to meet government obliga- tiOns in the immediate future will to- tai at least $5,OOO, 100000 and are not in sight, and that if taxes are not to be increased appropriations must be greatly reduced. Senator Warren adds that it now seems certain that thousands, if not millions, of persons who in 1919 were prosperous and paid their taxes into the treasury will not report much more than an even break as to profits and losses, and that as a result the governments tax income will be reduced accordingly. "The treasury" says Senator Warren, lis harder pressed now than at any time since the days of the Civil war. If there ever was a time when the treasury needed friends, that time is now, if this nation is to remain sol vent. l feel it incumbent upon me to say that in my opinion we are going to be without credit in this nation, our bonds are going much lower, and we are going to have to pay larger interest upon these certificates of in- debtedness, unless we are able to re- trench very sharply, and not branch out in any new lines, no matter how desirable they may be under ordinary circumstances"

CANADIANS WORRIED

Canadian farmers are very much eX- ercised over the prospects of tar if being imposed by the present con gress upon agricultural importations. At a convention of the farmers of On tario held at Ottawa, Canada, the prospects of an increase in tariff du- ties on agricultural exports to the United States was the chief topic of conversation. It was frankly admitted on all sides that since 1913, when the Underwood tariff went into effect with special fayors granted to Canada, the Canadian agriculturist has found the market in the United States a very profitable one. One of the larg- est cattle men in Canada made the frank declaration that it had in- creased his fortune by half a million dollars. He further stated there is no cattle market in the world to compare with that of the United States, and if the American congress increased the duties against importation of cat tie it would seriously affect the pros- perity of all Canadian cattle growers.
 As to what the Canadian wheat grower thinks of the situation may be best shown by the fact that wheat shippers are exerting every effort to rush their production across the line before the contemplated tariff rates go into effect. Word comes from Brockville, Ontario, that in ten days the Grand Trunk railway shipped 22,0O0 cars of grain across the line, which establishes new record for that railway system. Word also comes from Fort William, Ontario. that wheat shipments to the United States up to the close of navigation broke all previous records and that they totaled more than twenty times the amount of shipments in 1919.
 Canadian wheat growers state the American market is the only market they have for the reason that Great Britain and European countries are shipping wheat from India, whose crop this year is 34 per cent greater than any previous year in history. Moreover, the rate of exchange is in favor of the Canadian wheat grower. He can undersell the American farm CT 10 cents a bushel on the basis of dollar wheat, receive his pay in Amer ican money and by having it ex- changed into Canadian money re. ceiyes the same price as the Ameri- eth farmer does in this country.

cleaned up, and traffic conditions are back to normal Competition in ser vice has led to restoration of fast trains and to perceptible improve ment in other respects.
 There is no longer complaint about quality of service that was heard un- der federal operation. The rate ad- vance and the abundance of ships are traffic between rail and water of which the full effect on the railroads cannot yet be forecast. Slackening of industrial activity has relieved pres, sure on the roads, assisting them to more prompt handling of the traffic The general readjustment of industry to peace conditions extends to them as well as to production, and until it is completed we shall not be able to form an opinion of the workings of the law in normal times.

SNAP JUDGMENT ON THE RAIL.
 ROAD LAW

United States Judge George W, An derson of Boston, formerly a member of the interstate commerce commits sion, takes a gloomy view of the pros- poets of railroad operation under the Esch-Cummins act That is doubtless why his speech at the convention of railway and utilities commissioners is given much space and prominence by Labor, the paper published at Washington by the railroad brother hoods. He expects nothing from com- petition in service, and says that the law goes much farther toward feder- alization than has yet been recog- nized, putting control of almost every thing in the hands of the interstate commerce commission and the labor board and taking away the power of state commissions. He finds results since March hardly les sthan appal- ling" with "no sign of economy, hard ly sign of efficiency" That is music to the, ears of those whose hearts are set on the Plumb plan.
 The new law having been in effect little more than nine months, it is too early to judge of it's effect, but it has accomplished something. It has settled the wage question, which for time threatened general strike. The congestion of traffic with which 1t had to contend at the outset was az. gravated by outlaw strikes, heritage of federal operation but this has been
