THOUGH bootleggers and Illicit
dealers continue to thrive, the coils are
gradually being frightened and it is in
evitable that they snail eventually be
squeezed to death. New York has
been VIGOROUSLY wide open, but within
the Fast week the Legislature of that
State las passed strict prohibition en-
forcement laws. AMI the 1900
policemen of New York City have been
ordered TO treat illicit liquor dealers
as common felons, and the probability
is that their dirty business will re-
ceive a real setback

1T is announced that President
Harding will appoint Colonel George
Harvey, of New York, the we'll if not
favorably known magazine editor, to be
ambassador to Great Britain. 1t is
truly gratifying that the one man in
this country who knows all about ev-
erything is to give his talented SER
vices to the administration Colonel
Harvey has for years with such uner-
ring accuracy pointed out the mistakes
of others, and so positively informed
the public how governments should be
conducted, that it is Of course unlike
ly that he himself will err. If such
an improbable thing should occur. how
ever, let us hope that his critics will
be kinder and less caustic than he.

HE railroads are still in serious
difficulties and the more or less
capable men who are running them are
houndering around pathetically ir
thelr efforts to find relief. The bot
tom has dropped out of the freight
business, and Notwithstanding the
great development of the country. the
passenger traffic shows little or no in
crease. The railroad managers are
bent on reducing expenses by cutting
down the wages Of their EMPLOYEES
who at the present time are absorbing
practically all Of the income, and il is
inevitable that the pay must be re-
duced
But there is no intelligent attempt
on the part OF the officials TO get new
business, and trucks and other means
OF transportation continue to pull ava,
from them valuable traffic. while auto.
fnooiies and buses are hauling the
passengers. The people will them
selves travel and have their goods
transported by the cheapest and most
satisfactory methods, and unless the
railroads realize that they have real
competition and meet il they will con.
tinue to decline.
Kailrcad passenger and freight rates
are too high. ard revenues will NOT
grow until they. are made reasonable.

THE President has appointed Hon.
William E. Baker, of Elkins, to be
federal Judge for the northern district
of West Virginia, thus filling the va
cancy caused by the death of Judge
A. c. Dayton. His appointment is
commended on all sides, for it is be-
lieved that he will fill this important

Australian Trade
Conditions Upset
By Import Flood
Goods From U. S. and Brit.
ain Coming In Too Rapid.
ly To BE Absorbed; Drafts
NOtSaiisfedin MANY Cases

The cause of the decrease in Aus
tralian exports is obviously the col
lapse of the world market for raw
materials, but the cause of the in
crease in imports is less apparent,
says a report from Trade Commission
er A. w. Ferrin at Melbourne.
According to Mr.. Ferrin the gain in
imports seem to be largely the result
OF cancellation Of orders to British and,
to less extent, to American manufac-
turers by countries other thar Aus
tralla, allowing the British and Ameri-
can manufacturers and exporters to
concentrate on Australian orders.
lit has ben the custom in the past
few years." he adds, "to place orders
far in advance Of requirements in or
der to make sure Of continuing sup
ply OF commodities. The rapidity
with which these orders are now being
filed is such that often goods ordered
with the expectation that they would
arrive at intervals of months are now
coming in one boat, flooding the local
wholesale market and overwhelming
the importer with drafts which he has
the greatest difficulty in meeting.
In fact many drafts are not met
and the goods go into bond, awaiting
reexport or disposal locally through
auction sales or otherwise. Another
cause of the swelling of import stats
tics and the congestion in wholesale
markets is the attempt of British man.
ufacturers to reduce their home stocks
by sending goods to Australia on con-
signment."
Overstocking is declared to be ap-
parent in the wholesale market much
more than in the retail. Retail trade
is very dull, buyers holding off for an
expected drastic break in prices which
has not yet reached Australia. Some
lines are reported to be understocked;
on the other hand, certain lines, no.
tably mems cotton half-hose, are very
badly overstocked. The most serious
overstocking in retail shops seems to
be in novelties. Losses incurred
through overpurchase of stocks on
nom essentials, it is stated, will mate
retail houses when they come to re-
stock their supply of necessities.
Many mines have have closed on
account of the low world price of
metals. Scarcely any copper mines in
New South Wales are working and
Queensland copper mines are curtail-
ing their production. Gold has again
become an important item in the ex-
port of metals. Practically all the gold
mined in the last three months of
1920 was sold to New York bank.

ica's feeling toward the republics of
South America.

zine editor and writer, who is to visit
Nine. Cure, French scientist and bring
her to this country.

Greek Offensive Forecast
Turks Announce Killing of S in
Woman's Battalion

CONSTANTINOPLE, April 20.--The
Greeks continue their preparations for
a formidable offensive, which is ex-
pected to commence in few days,
probably in an effort to reach Kutayah.
The Turks are bringing up the last of
the conscripts from the interior tribes,
which, with the army of Kiazim Kara
Bekir, form an army of about 100000.
The Turkish communication issued
to-day says that five members Of the
womans battalion have been killed be-
fore Ushak, where the Greeks are be-
ing pressed.
The Greeks are delivering a heavy
counter offensive against the Turks
near Ushak, to prevent the Turks from
capturing the town.

So"therners Ask Tariff
In Nearly All Interests

WASHINGTON, April 2O.-The South
ern Tariff Association, claiming repre-
sentation of almost every variety of
enterprise in the South, today appealed
to President Harding and Congress for
a protective tariff which it declared
was imperatively necessary to save the
South from "the throes of an economic
disaster of unparalleled Intensity"
A memorial presented to the House
Ways and Means Committee said agri-
culture lies prostrate," the manufac-
turing industry is "threatened with
paralysis" and the mineral industry is
"entirely imperative" The immediate
enactment Of "such tariff schedules as
will equalize the cost of production in
this country with that Of foreign coun-
tries" was asked.
