The PAPER PrOtitee1S

Among those oudest in the camor for tariff is the paper
trust whose e&acons have taken most the profit in the pub
fishing business the past few and forced the price
of newspapers throughout the land.
The need of protecting this infant industry is brought
being made public The report of the International
Paper company of the largest of the affiliated combn
aons depicts the sad plight of the newsprin makers
This had in 1920 net earnings of 1862 after
taxes depreciation and fixed charges paid and $10
36362 added to the surplus fund.- which totals
$32,062,619 The dividend the common stock, which
represents promotion and water $5207 500,
against $402 in 1917 the previous high year, and 200
percent greater than in 1919.
The president of the company depicts its melancholy
diton follows: "The industry is still carried under
unfair oppressive conditions because congress removed
moderate protective duty Demand has fallen off since
the first of the year. production has been curaied and
heavy borrowing necessary to accumulated stocks
Wage reductions declared necessary and strike OF

Yet the paper makers refuse to make substantial reduc-

instead to maintain prices by artificial conditions accumu

Removing The Stain

Passage of the Colombian treaty by the senate
pensng the United States of Colombia with $25000000 for
the of the Panama canal tardy stain
from the and honor Of the United States
placed there by President Roosevelt 1t is shameful that
action delayed for eighteen years and that it took the
discovery of oil in Colombia to force the senate to act of
justice.
The Panama revolution manufactured in New York
and the HayHean treaty made the petex for interference
by President Roosevelt, drafted by William Nelson
Cromwell attorney for the Panama Canal company Senor
Herran, the Colombian charge affairs induced to
sign secretly the expressed instructions Of his
ment rejecting the treaty
The United States senate at Rooseves request ratified
this treaty but the Colombian government of
the Ismus of Panama the granor of the canal conces
ana principal stockhoder in the Panama Canal
pany refused to ray the treaty hence the revolution
organized by the agents Of the Panama railroad owned
by the Panama Canal company and carried through by aid
the sthmus to prevent Colombia from landing troops to
quel the revolt The Panama Canal company paid
$4O,00000O from the United States treasury and the
trumped up republic $10000,000 for its services.
In this manner President Roosevelt violated the treaty
with the sister republic and in his words took the
sthmus and left congress to debate" just the German
Kaiser took Belgium When Attorney General Knox was
asked to find legal justification for the action he is re-
ported to have told Roosevelt Why compcate this action
with any tant of egaty?" and until the passage of the
present treaty, it never had been legalized.
The senator's led by Lodge who held the treaty
under President Wilson, champoned it's ratification under
Harding showing that political partsanship and not
principle governs the United States senate in it's foreign
eaonsa fact emphasized by the treatment accorded the
Treaty of Versailles

Revenue From
Gas Tax Double
Under New Law

The tax of two cents a gallon
on gasoline and one and one-half
cents a gallon on distillate, as ap-
proved at the recent session OF the
legislature, returned to the state
for the month Of March, 1921, a
total OF S64.377.64.
For the month of March, 1920,
when the tax on gasoline was one
cent a gallon and distillate one
half cent a gallon, the revenue to
the state from this source aggre-
gated SS2.29s.65. These figures
were made public by Sam A. Koz-
er, secretary OF state, and Indicate
that the increased tax on gasoline
and distillate will almost double
the revenue provided from this
source under the 1919 law.
