THE
Germans from capturing the whole
market. And this would be a good
thing for our people.
1t seems idle to discuss the ex-
travagant theories that under the
new valuation system the American
producer will stay up where he is
to lure the German to come on up
to him in price instead of the Ger
man compelling the American to
come down to him. Intensely COM
petitive international markets are
fought for to the last ditch: they are
not conducted as pink tea, at
tended by engraved invitations.
For that very reason the chatter
about the home producer pyramiding
prices against the home consumer,
under the American valuation sys-
tenn, is all the more cheerful idiocy.
II he did anything like that he would
not have a ghost of chance at the
business. Instead Of pyramiding
himself into a roof garden barbecue
he would shoot the chutes into an
industrial shutdown
Look at the arithmetic of it. If
by some wizardry he could jack up
the 81 of American price to $1.50,
the duty for'the English product and
the German product here would be-
come so cents each. This would
bring the British import basis cost Of
getting laid down In this market to
$1.30. Instead Of being 10 0Dnts
higher than the American cost as
before it would now become 20 cents
lower.
1t would bring the German import
basis Of getting laid down in this
market to $1.10. Instead of being
10 cents below the American cost as
before it would be 40 cents lower.
There are of course two genuine
dangers to be avoided in the applica-
tion of the principle Of the American
valuation system. One is an import
duty so high on top Of the American
valuations wall on top Of wall
and then, perhaps, If the tariff
mad fanatics have their way, custom
house machine guns on top Of the
top wall--a tariff so insurmountably
high, indeed, that competitive goods
could not possibly climb In. That
would deprive the Treasury of tens
of millions of revenue on which it is
counting. 1t would shut up thou
sands of American industries now en-
gagged in the export trade. because
when foreign buyers, having no gold
with which to pay, could no longer
pay for American goods with any of
their own goods they would have to
stop buying here.
The other danger is that foreign
goods coming in here and paying du-
ties on the American valuation plan,
although there were no American
competition in our own market be-
cause there was no home production
of the goods, the prices of such ar
ticles to our consumers would be run
up. This would come to pass not be-
cause of protection to American in
dustries but. on the contrary, by very
reason of there being no homo indus
tries in such things and, therefore,
no restraining influence of home com.
petition with the foreign seller.
Undoubtedly, as TIE New York
HERALD has said before, there is ex-
plosive powder in the American val
uation system. But this. does not
mean 1t cannot be a useful and neces-
sary national weapon. 1t does mean
that fools and incompetents, whether
legislative or administrative, must not
be permitted so to mishandle it as to
blow the sides out of the United
States Treasury and lay billions Of
dollars of American export industries
in permanent ruins.

DECEPTION GIVES
ROMANTIC DRESSING
TO HISTORICAL FACTS

The lovers of the worthwhile"
movie drama who eagerly went to see
Deception" last night came away
slightly disappointed, for the second
OF the great German historical films
standard OF ITS predecessor Passion, !"
and the fact that it was badly shown
also detracted from the pleasure of
the spectator
The grouping. stage sets, accuracy
OF chronological details. and photo

pected. but i. was distinctly discour-
againg to find that for the sake of
making the eternal movie appeal TO
its audiences sentimentality, the

troduced and one OF the most vivid
and dramatic periods OF history dis
torted to fit around as banal bit of
fiction as could be imagined.
Unlike Passion" with which one

there is no question at all as to- the rea-
son for the title. and as TO who is be-
ing deceived-it's the addience-the
crowd that loves to be fooled. and un-
less the persons who saw the picture
last night either are very recently out
OF school. with their history lessons
still fresh in their minds. or had ref
erence books at hand On which they
afterwards looked up the facts, last
nights entertainment gave them some
quite erroneous impressions OF the
characters OF Henry VIII and Anne
Doleyn.
Unquestionably. the most interest
'ng thing in the picture was the amaz-
ing likeness of the actors to the .por-
traits Of the historical ,personages
they represented Both Cranmer and
Wolsey were extraordinarily like
their pictures; while Henry. when not
cistorting his face to express that
emotion which the movie actors, re-
gardless of nationality, seem best able
to depict. might readily have been the
royal model Holbein so loved to paint.

CHINESE ENCROACH UPON

PAPEETE, TAHITI, Aug. 9.-The
Chinese have invaded this section of
the South Sea Islands to such an ex-
tent that they have almost run the
natives out of the retail business.
Originally the Chinese came to
Tahiti as field laborers, but they soon
saw an opportunity to engage in small
trading and as more and more came
to the island, they have practically
acquired the whole of the retail trade.
Their. operations shave extended to all
the islands under the French flag.
Papeete has long ago lost its char

There are today more than 1000
