Security League Urges
Economic Preparedness
Announces Plan for Study of
Foreign and Domestic Prob
Iems by Members

The National Security League yester-
day announced plan to advance the
study of foreign and domestic economic
problems among it's $4,000 members un-
der the slogan Economic Prepared
ness"
According to S. Stanwood Menken,
president of the leagues executive
committee, the league considers the
need Of financial rcadjustment the most
vital Issue of the day. He said the
leagues activity in this direction, and
it's support of the Washington confer
ence meant no abandonment of its
campaign for universal military train
ing nor interference with the general
patriotic work for constitutional
knowledge which the league is doing
1t is proposed, said Mr.. Menken, that
the league conduct it's new campaign
for economic preparedness on the same
broad lines that it did for military
Preparedness. He added:
"American ability, once directed to
these questions, can aid in their solu-
tion and, once unity OF objective is
determined, be n powerful force in
safeguarding our own situation and
bringing Europeans to recognition of
American purpose to treat the financial
problems constructively. The example
of the adoption of a course which
takes finance out of politics will be
one which European countries can we'll
be stimulated to follow"

Shipping Men Get
Plan for Sinking
All Excess Craft
L. McIlvaine Declares Idle
Vessels Will ssEat Up
Value i'm S Years by De-
terioration and Expenses

Equalization of the excess shipping
Of the world, which is now idle, can
best be accomplished by destroying yes
sells on national pro rata basis, ac-
cording to a suggestion made to the
Merchant Marine Joint Committee, con-
sisting of ship owners, operators and
builders, by Captain Tompkins Nell
vaine, editor of "The National Service
Magazine.
In letter to j. r. Gordon, chairman
of the joint committee, Mr.. McIlvainc
declares that an artificial stimulation
Of shipbuilding resulted from the war
and the two years excessive buying
from abroad which followed the armis-
tice.
Much of this tonnage, he adds, is
now idle, and has been for many
months. Americas share represents
50 1000, 100000, and the greater proper
tion of the vessels are lying at docks or
anchorage, deteriorating in value, and
entailing an expense of thousands of
dollars a day in upkeep he says. He
has calculated that the ships on an av-
erage will "eat themselves up by de-
probation and expense" in five years,
and that the great bulk of idle tonnage
cannot come into profitable service
within that period
In transmitting this letter to H. II.
Raymond, president of the American
Steamship Owners Association, Mr..
Gordon says that this is zone of the
most interesting suggestions received"
II cannot escape from the conclusion
that there is but one businesslikc thing
to do with the idle tonnage" says Mr..
McIlvaine, "and that is to destroy it
take the vessels out and sink them, or
i fill them with sand and cement and use
them as breakwaters, since to keep
them will cost more than they are
worth"
Concerted action of the worlds ship
ping interests will be necessary to
bring about this equalization, he de-
clares, and this will fit in we'll with the
American invitation to the great naval
powers for reduction in fighting craft.
An international commission to clas-
sify tonnage, allot each nation it's pro-
portionate amount and to permit each
nation to retain a reserve to meet in
creased business demands is also pro-
posed. He suggests compensation if
the destruction is brought about by
government requisition, or joint action
by private interests.

Oil-Burning Steamers
Outstrip Tank Vessels
High Prices Restore Use of Coal
as Fuel; Many Ships Are
Readily Convertible

The economy of oil over coal as fuel
in the last few years has led to
rapid increase in vessels of this type,
outstripping the construction of tank
ers. but in recent months the COM
parative cheapness of coal has resulted
in a swing back to this fuel.
According to Lloyds Register, ships
carrying oil fuel have increased in the
last seven years from 1,478,988 tons to
4,418,688 tons, but vessels burning oil
have jumped from 10000 tons in
1914 to 12,796,635 tons in 1921. Of the
oil tankers constructed during the year
practically all were on the Isherwood
system.
Shipping men point out that while
the use of oil has many advantages
over coal the ultimate use of any fuel
depends upon the cost. A year ago,
when coal was high priced and oil low,
many vessels were converted, but with
conditions reversed many steamers are
now swinging back to coal. This is
due to the fact that majority of ships
are convertibl. easily into oil or coal
burners. This fact leads one at least
of the British shipping magazines to
believe that coal will continue to be
the predominant fuel of British ships
for many years.

Three Meetings Scheduled for
This Week on Marine Prob
lens and Policies

Reduction in wages of officers and
crews will be one of the subjects of dis
cussion at meeting of the American
Steamship Owners Association at IL

in pay should be made effective on
January l., and it is understood that
decision will be reached at that
meeting.
The Merchant Marine Joint Com
mittee, consisting of representatives of
ship owners, operators and builders, will
meet at the Offices of the Steamship
Owners Association tomorrow to con-
slider the replies to the QUESTIONABLE
on national policies. 1t is expected
that final action will be taken in draft
ing recommendations to Congress.
The executive committee of the

Mexico May Drop Plan
To Seek Big Loan Here
Treasury Secretary May Accept
S5O,O0O,OOO Already Report
ed Offered. Paners Say

MEXICO CITY, Dec 4-Secretary of
Treasury. de la Huerta's proposed trip
to New York for an attempt to arrange
Mexican financial affairs is being held
in allegiance, says a Treasury Depart
ment statement, pending receipt of
report from Gomez NORM, Mexican
financial agent in that city, on his
negotiations with American fnanciers.
Numerous editorial protests against
the proposed trip have been made by
Mexico City newspapers, which main
tain that such a course would be both
undignified and unnecessary.
"El Heraldo" says it is true that a
group Of American bankers have Of
fered the government a $50,OO0,O0O
loan for establishment Of the Banco
de la Republca.
"Inasmuch as resident banks have
made no offer to take the shares of
this federal concern" it adds, "it is
very possible the American proposition
will be accepted. According to our in
formation, the interest rate is the only
difficulty now being encountered"

Idle in u. S. Decreasing

40 Show More Workers in
November Than October

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Unemploy.
ment in the United States continues to
show steady though slow decrease,
according to monthly reports to the
Labor Department from it's studies in
siXty-five industrial centers. The de-
partment announced to-day that Laps

the country had 7,219 more men on the
payrolls on November 80 than on Oc-
tober 81. or an increase Of almost ONE
half of per cent.
Paper, printing, lumber, iron and
steel, automobile manufacture and tex
tile establishments all took on more
hands, while railroad repair work,
leather industries and food producing
establishments reported reduction of
employees.
In the departments list of cities
forty showed more workers employed
during the month and twenty-four had
decreases of employment. Perth Amboy,

Lesson i'm Inventories
Buying Conservatism Stressed
During Year in Accessories

The paramount lesson learned by the
automotive industry in 1921, according
to replies to a questionable sent out
by the Motor and Accessory Manufac-
turers' Association, was the necessity
of maintaining conservative, balanced
inventories.
General conservatism in buying,
greater prudence in making commit
ments and closer period buying we're
mentioned by virtually all the execu-
tives who contributed to the sympos-
ium as last years principal contribu-
tion to business wisdom. Another sig
nificant note in most of the replies was
that the viewpoint Of the ultimate con-
sumer should guide to greater extent
production and distribution policies.

Market for Steel Plows in Siam

There is an excellent opportunity for
the introduction of medern steel plows
into Siam for use in preparing rice
sui James P. Davis, at Bangkok. Rice
growing is the greatest industry of the
country, furnishing the food staple for
the entire population and 100000 tons
or. more annually for export, the
primitive wooden plow still being
largely used for preparing the soil for
this immense crop. It is suggested
that the "carabao" plow which is be-
ing used extensively in the Philippine
Islands is we'll adapted for use in this
country. This plow has a steel beam
and one steel handle with about a six
inch cut, and should prove as popular
IN Siam as it has under similar con-
ditions in the PHILIPPINES.

Britain Has 100000
Tons of Shipping Idle
U. S. Board Has 1000 Vessels,
of About S, 100000 Tons,
Ont of Oneration

About one-ffth of British shipping,
3,3S0,000 deadweight tons, is now idle
in thirty-sx ports, according to figures
given in "Fairplay," as compared with
4,81O,O0O tons idle last July. These
are the first statistics of complete
nature that have been received in this
country on the percentage of idle yes
sells in the British feet. The United
States Shipping Board has approxi-
mately 1000 ships of 100000 dead
weight tons withdrawn from operation.
The reduction in the tonnage of idle
vessels, "Fairplay" declares, is not due
to a revival of shipping, but to the
fact that many ships have been sold
to foreigners or have been placed in
shipyards for repairs. 1t is pointed
out that the total of steam tonnage
owned in Great Britain has been de-
creasing since last May, which is said
to be an unusual situation, "especially
when shipbreaking is at a discount"
The following figures are given:

Netherlands Trade Movement

Imports into Holland for September
totaled s78,soS,5oo, as against $74,e56,-
600 in August. Hollands exports for
September totaled $54,300,ooO against
$57,026,400 in August. This brings
Hollands imports for 1921 up to $685.
201 ,O66 and her exports to $420,554,7O4.
The value of imports in September
was exceeded for this year in the
months Of January and March only,
while the value of exports in Septem-
Der was the largest in tais year with
the exception of August. An interest
ing phase of Hollands trade movement
is that, while the value Of her imports
averages an excess of 35 per cent over
her exports, the tonnage of imports is
about three times the weight of her
exports, showing that Holland is a
large importer of bulk goods and raw
materials and an exporter of finished
products. 1t also means that outgoing
