WONDERFUL BELLS
co TO PLYMOUTH
FOR FIRST Church
Elaborate Program Arranged
For Dedication of Pilgrim

BROOKLYN, Aug. Tho Me.
neeley Bell Company OF Troy. N. Y.

heading part in the arrangements for
a proper observance of the Pilgrim
tercentenary.
The bells will be dedicated on
August IL and there will be a great
time in Plymouth with a parade, i'm
pressive exercises and possibly the at
tendance of President Harding to cap
the climax.
Members of the Brooklyn New Eng
land Society have contributed sub
stantally toward the chimes. The
society voted the sum of $4,000, which
paid for the second largest OF the ten

Another interesting feature of the
toll rates at Panama is the compare
lively low rates at which cargo moves
through the canal. A net registered
ton in shipping practice is 100 cubic
feet of cargo space. Now IL happens
that most cargo doesn't require so
much room and that for some COM
modities three tons can be put in each
net register ton space. For instance,
cotton takes much more room than
nitrates. A cargo Of the latter has
moved through the canal for 81 cents
a ton, while a cargo of lumber might
cost 81 a ton. The average rate for
bulk cargoes ranges around 81 cents a
long ton.
The present income from the canal
Is barely sufficient to pay the mere
costs of operation, with no allowance
whatever for depreciation or interest
on the investment. AS the canal cost
1857 900. 900, and as the Government
has TO pay at least per cent for
money borrowed today. 1t will be seen
that interest charges alone would
amount to SIS. 900, 900 a year.

So a net registered ton instead of s1.20.
With the tremendous decline in
ocean freight rates in the past two
years and the large increase in trans.
continental railroad rates. the competi.
ton Of the canal-using steamship lines
for transcontinental freight has hit
the railroads a very hard blow. Much
tonnage that in pre-war days moved
from seaboard to seaboard by rail is
now going by sea, with the result that
hundreds of freight trains have been
discontinued.

The most hopeful feature in the

continuing prospect of excellent food
crop returns, according to the July
review given out today by the Federal
Reserve Board.
In cotton, 1t is pointed out, there
has been little or no change from the
prospect Of former months, the out
look indicating about two.thirds of
last years production, due both to re.
duced acreage and to the poor condi-
ton Of the crop. This reduced pros

lesser degree for other important
