A BRAND FROM THE BURNING

Senator Ashurst, Democrat, OF Ari-
IONA. appears { o have become a zea-
lous convert to the protective doc
trine. Recently he aroused the ire
OF some OF his Southern colleagues
by declaiming: II wish to say to my
Southern brethren here who are al
ways against a tariff on cotton, that
even now in Uganda, Nigeria, and
Mesopotamia barbarous labor by the
millions is soon to be employed, and
is nov being employed by the Brit
ish government producing cotton at
one-sixth the cost at which you can
produce it. While you are against a
protective tariff on raw material, the
day will come when the South will
be the leaders and the chief expon-
ents of a protective tariff on cotton.
because you cannot compete with the
barbarous labor of Africa and Mes
opotamia, and you will be obliged to
go put of the cotton business or have
a protective tariff on cotton go. I
appeal to the Republican party and
| appeal to my colleagues to pass
a tariff bill not for the benefit of the
manufacturer alone. but for the ben
eft Of the farmer as well. and rich
economics and just praise will be your
portion 1

ON A BUSINESS BASIS

The City Council of Portland, Ore
gon, is going TO ask the Oregon Public
Service Commission to make an in
ventory of the municipal water works
OF Portland and establish an increased
rate that will put the water bureau
ION its feet financially
No valuation has ever been made
of the water department, the present
value being a mere guess backed by
such information as is available. Oh
ficials of the water bureau feel that
a valuation should be made, so that a
price for water based on cost of opera
ton. might be made. Portland Of
ficials should be commanded for their
attempt to put the municipal water
system on a cash basis.
For political purposes the average
municipal plant is not operated on a
business basis, and rates are made as
a matter of expediency rather than as
a matter of business.
Municipal public utility plants should
be under the jurisdiction of the State
Public Utility Commission, just as
much as private plants, and rates
should be established on a basis which
will protect the taxpayers as well as
the water users.
Portland has made a move in the
right direction and her lead should
be followed by every municipality.

PARENTS AND THE SCHOOLS

Practically all the schools of the
country are open now for the winter
session. To too many mothers and
fathers this means a let-up OF respon-
sibility rather than call to co-opera-
ton.
How many OF them will visit the
schools to see if they are better equip
ped than last year, in better sanitary
condition and so on? How many OF
those who resolved last year to keep
in closer touch with the children and
the teachers will keep that resolution
this year?
How many business men who COM
plain that the schools do not fit youth
for intelligent grasp. OF business life
will take pains to keep in such con-
tact with them as will prove helpful
in correcting their business shortcom-
ings?
Whose are the schools, anyway
Who gains or loses by the investment
IN them. ard 50 should make sure that
it pays?
Only through intelligent co-opera-
ton between the school and the home
between teachers and parents and
taxpayers, can the school perform its
highest service.

A GOOD RECORD

There has always been a lot OF loose
talk INDUCED in relative TO the price
of gasoline and petroleum products.
4 summary OF gasoline and oil pric-
es recently published relative to the
Kansas Oklahoma field brings 10 light
some interesting facts.
Taking 1913 prices as a basis OF 100
per cent for relative values. gasoline
increased to 184.5 per cent in Scptcm-
Der, 1920, while crude petroleum in
creased to 800 per cen the same
month. In June, 1921, crude petro-
leum was back to 1872 per cent, or
a u per cent increase over 1918, while
gasoline was back to 1888 per cent, or
an increase of 1873 per cent over 1913.
A large part OF this increase in price
over the 1918 figure is due to higher
labor costs and fixed charges such
as taxation and cost OF transportation,
which are beyond the control OF OIL
companies to regulate.
Few industries can show a
rapid or complete return to near nor
NAL prices than can the petroleum in

FIRST o FOR SAM

The Emergency Fleet Corporation
carried the fight Into John Bulls
corner when it slashed freight rates
and thus served notice on Great Rri-
tain that we proposed to have a fair
share of the freight in Egyptian cot
ton. The outcome of it thus far
has been that a conference is to be
held in Liverpool between represen-
~tatives of the Shipping Board and
of the British vessels, and it is con-
fidently predicted that the rights OF
the former will be recognized. Un-
der the policy of the preceding Ad-
ministration, the Shipping Board
would have laid down and let En-
gland ride over it, Under the stall
wart policy OF today Great Britain
will undoubtedly recognize that we
are entitled to consideration in the
carrying trade.

all men respect the man who does

THE COAL EXPORT TRADE


Chairman Lasker, OF the u. s. Ship
ping Board has agreed to lease idle
ships of the government fleet to Am
erican coal operators at a dollar a ton
a month, provided coal carrying rail
roads also will assist by reducing rail
rates. This is for the purpose of
stimulating coal shipments to Europe
on routes where America has been
losing business to the foreigner. Our
principal competitor is Great Britain
where coal production has been sub
sidlzcd by a government which is in
arrears in the payment of interest on
the debt owing to the United States.

bituminous coal of Great Britain and

WRONG AGAIN

Henry Ford has called public at
~tention to one OF the costly effects
of government in business. He as
serts that the railroads spend too
much time and money making out
accounts and records, but it is well
known that these records are kept
and copied in order to comply with
Government requirements. According
to figures compiled by the Bureau
Statistics, OH pa cent of the total
revenue of the railroads was spent
for clerk hire in 1920 as compared
with Us per cent in 1905. This was
a quadrupling of the clerk-hire ex-
pense. Perhaps the public gets enough
out of the statistics to. make the
work worth while, but however that
may be. the public pays the cost when
it pays shipping charges.
Since the debating of the currency
began we can all see that much of the
boosted prosperity of a year or SO
ago was simply hot air.

Two PERI 'forrnances
OF Unusual Merit
AT Metropolitan
Singers and Conductors. i'm
Most Artistic Mood i'm
Louise and 'L'Amore del
IRE Re- Delight Hearers

Two distinguished performances of
opera were given at the Metropolitan
Opera House yesterday. The distinc-
tion of the afternoon performance of
Charpentier's Louise" lay chiefly in
the excellence of the elaborate mise
en- scene, in Mr.. VOLTS readings of
the score, in the admirable delineation
of character given the Father and
Mother by Mr.. Rothier and Nine.
Berat, two operatic portraits of the
first rank, and in the ability with
which the minor roles were taken.
Mr. Rothier, who sang the part of
the Father for the first time at this
opera house, was the lovable French
workingman to the life. In song, ac-
tion and facial play he was constantly
eloquent. A sympathetic and touching
embodiment of paternity in it's highest
form.
Interest in the evening performance
of Montemezzi's "L'Amore del IRE Re-
centered in the reappearance of Miss
Bori rs Flora, a part in which she at
tanned high honors before her enforced
absence from the Metropolitan. 1t was
her second appearance this season and,
like her performance of Mimi week
ago, a second triumph for this admir-
able artist. Vocally we'll disposed, she
was as, in other years, a charming and
pathetic Flora, portraying with ex-
quisite delicacy the conflict between
love and duty that ragged within the
spiri tof a gentle and sensitive woman
The intensity of her death scene SCARED
to heights of tragic intensity.
Mr.. Danise, who sang the role of
