South American Trade

The current increased discrepancy
in foreign exchange is giving Euro
peans an advantage over us in South
America that will be difficult to over
come in the future. Trade reports from
Germans and Belgians underselling
Americans to such an extent that our
gods have no chance of being distrib-
uted. The cuts under American prices
range from 20 to rs per cent. While
the greater part of this may be due to
lower cost of production, a good share
of it is TO be accounted for by ex-
change rates highly favorable to Uni
ted States currency. As long as this
condition continues South Americans
will prefer European goods, and the
longer they use them the more COLI
firned will become that preference.
Many American branch houses have
been closed and unstable goods are
being returned to the United States.
This must be regarded as unfortunate,
for it constitutes something Of an
Abandonment of a field that should be
ours. In some quarters it is believed
that local conditions are chiefly re-
sponsible for the decline of business
in which we are interested. If this were
"a reasonable conclusion energetic
American business men hardly would
permit themselves to be driven away.
But now it appears that they are at a
disadvantage which promises to be In
surnountable for q long time.
The South Americans are buying
some foreign goods. but United States
houses find it impossible to sell. OBJ
viously, we have a stake in the reha-
biEsation of exchange and the restora-
ton of the rest of the world to moral,
IL the victory of Europeans over US
in South America is not to be extend

PREVENTING A LEAK.

The tick fever quarantine around
Florida to prevent the movement Of
guaranteed cattle out Of the state
seems to be 100 per cent alright again
following discovery by government Of
ficials of q slight leak in Hamilton
and Madison counties.
When the cattlemen proceeded to
close all markets by their efforts to
stop all tick eradication work, they
suddenly found out that the govern
ment officials had told the truth ana
there was no way to get their cattle
out OF the state, not even tick free
show cattle which happened to be in
guaranteed counties.
Some master mind evolved the idea.
that the quarantine could be circum.
vented in small way by killing tho
cattle on the Florida side Of the border
between Georgia and hauling me
dressed carcasses into Georgia. The
plan was cautiously tried out and
seemed to be all right, so contracts
were made with butchers in Valdosta
to deliver extra fine dressed carcasses
Of beef at cents per pound on the
block. That was satisfactory to the
butchers, who have to pay from to
8 cents a pound live weight for cattle
purchased in tick free and working ter
ritory having privilege Of open mar
kats.
The oattIemen then made arrange
ments for tops Of the steers in Tay-
Tor, Lafayette. Madison and adjoining

weight, as there Is a shrinlxage Of at
least one-half in weight IN dressing
the animal. and the men had to re-
ceive little remuneration for killing
the animals and hauling them several
miles to vaidosta.
Last week the government discover
ed the leak and promptly plugged up
the hole, serving notice through the
Vaidosta Times to 'cattIemen, butch

perfectly absurd explanation and
sticks to her theory with pretty per-

termine whether she is deep enough
to realize the absurdity of her remarks
and to make them purposely in order
to raise a laugh, or whether she really
is as naively foolish as she sometimes
appears.

Democrats Going After
Congressional Seats


The democratic party IS organizing
TO make strenuous fight to overcome
the republican lead in congress at the
vital spot in the republican make up
and are going to hammer away at it
between now and next election day.
There are many vulnerable points in
the republican body. The G. o. P has
fallen down on every pre- election
promise and when the republican
members of congress go home and ask
to be sent to Washington again they
will have word of explaining to do.
But the democratic. leaders have de-
cided to make their principal fight on
the valuation system applied to tariffs
on imports. These plainly favor the
big organizations of the country and
leave the little fellow-the man who
has small business, the professional
men, the farmers. out in the cold.
The trust controlled" and .'monop-
olistic-p produced" articles have fixed
wholesale market prices. When the
American valuation plan becomes eff
fective as the basis for imposing the
tariff duties, the trusts. monopolies
and price fixing organizations will run
up the wholesale market price so that
any tariff duty will become prohibitive
and an effective Chinese wall will be
raised against imports, the democrats
charge.
Accompanying the argument, there
is being cited as object lessons of con-
troll OF organizations over prices, the
Steel trust, Harvester Trust, Powers
trust aluminium trust, Cement trust,
Sugar trust. Oil trust and all the var
ious big and little combinations
charged with controlling prices.
Democrats claim the republican
leaders with thei1 adoption of the
American valuation plan are substi-
tuting industry war service commit
tees, easily re-created If they have not
been actually disbanded, and turning
over to such organizations the tariff to
be used to crush imports, kill compe-
tition and load the American people
down under high prices. They assert
that their argument is meeting with q
support throughout the country, and
that republican members of congress
have hurried back home" to allay a
fast rising tide of political opposition
which will have It's demonstration In
the next observation-disclosures Me-

GERMAN AND AMERICAN VIEW
OF SEPARATE TREATY.

What does this Berlin treaty-this
separate peace treaty-settle? Accord
ing to the Vossche Zeitung it settles
nothing; it is simply a protocol or a
frame work upon which to negotiate
the commercial and economic agree
ments which are to prevail between
the two countries. The most important
matters concerning our future rela-
tons with Germany are yet to be ne
gotiated The German press expresses
satisfaction with the treaty so far
which is not surprising, as it drives q
wedge between the United States and
the allies by relieving this country Of
the responsibility for enforcement OF
the Versailles treaty except the Sec
tions included in the separate treaty.
According to the New York World.
President Harding and Mr.. Hughes
have translated Col Harvey's Pilgrim
society speech into the treaty of Ber-
lin, and it then says, ''They have strip
ped it Of everything which carried the
suggestion of an ideal or a noble pur-
pose"
What does the Berlin treaty settle?
According to the World it settles the
question OF what our boys died for in
the great war. It says:
In the light of this formal diplo-
matte expression Of the Harvey Hard
ing principles it can be said too that
the dead in this war did not die in
vain. They died In order to validate
the American title to German private
property which the government of the
ITnitad States took ovaY and hold RI
guarantee the payment Of private
claims against the German govern
ment. It is for this that they gave their
young lives. 1t is for this that all the
sacrifices were made. 1t is for this that
the American people poured out their
blood and treasure"

LET'S HAVE a BAND.

A short time ago the chamber Of
commerce announced that they were
endeavoring to secure a musician to
take charge of the musical programs
for the tourists clubs during the win
ter months That is al very well and
good. as far as it goes but while hir-
ing a musician why not hire one fully
competent to take charge OF and in
struct a municipal band?
We believe that there are a nmber
of local musicians who with but little
extra training could be drafted into an
excellent musical organization and
would be able to render some excellent
band concerts during the winter
months when the tourists are with us.
and surely they and the public as we'll
would enjoy such an organization
much more than they would an indoor
program or community sing.
1t is not reasonable to think that we
would be able to develop a band on a
par with Sousa. Creatore or some 9TH
er noted organization at once, but by
the organization of a municipal band
this year we would have the nucleus
OF a much better organization next
year, and by carrying up the PROPOSE
ton from year to year we would soon
have band that would be the. pride
of Pensacola and spread her name far
and wide among the tourists of the
country.
Let's have band of our own, it will
not be a hard matter to do so. The
most essential foundation for such an
organization is an honest, competent
instructor that is willing to put in his
time and take personal interest and
a certain amount Of pride in his
achievements.
We believe that this matter Is wor-
thy Of serious consideration and can
be handled successfully and economi-
cally.

A Criminal at Large


Virginia Turner was not a partner
in youthful romance that grew
stronger thssys the restrictions set on it
by religion, convention and reason.
The fact that none of her family or Of
her friends can name the man re-
sponsible for the condition that led to
her death proves that he was not an
open sutton. not man who planned to
make her his wife.
Evidently, Virginia Turner, like
thousands of other girls in this land
that we call civilized, was the victim
of one of the men who roam the earth
seeking whom their lust may devour.
They are seeking not the woman al
ready depraved. but the sweet, pure
girl whose very innocence makes her

No Millennium Yet

With the world on the eve Of a great
disarmament conference. it is a little
disheartening to hear President Harda
ing telling the officers of the war coll
lege that ut is perfectly futile to think
that there may never be a conflict, !"
and that mo matter what tremendous
and gratifying progress is made, there
may never come time without the ne
cessity for armed forces in every gov
eminent" But courage returns, how
ever, with the. presidents further as.
surance that the time is near at hand
when the burdens of armament and
the armies and navies can be greatlt
reduced" It is merely a quiet warming
that while progress is being made hui
man nature itself will keep that pro-
gress slow. Harding points to centuries
of history for his reasons.
Increase of understanding at home
and among the peoples of the world,
the president believes, marks the flu
ture reduction Of all armed forces to
minimum, and this he sees already on
the way.
Certainly the disarmament confer
ence itself will be long step toward
such understanding. and the mere fact
that it could be called. and the call
be answered favorably, shows that
great progress toward peace has been
made already in the hearts of men.
How fast or how complete that pro-
gress will be cannot be predicted by
what lies behind. 1t depends upon how
rapidly enlightenment and education
are disseminated in the years ahead
