Under the Heel of FOrdney's Tariff.
(NeW York World

Canada has just been taking inventory of stock in trade with the United States which Chair Joe Fordneys Emergency Tariff Act of last spring designed to make discouraging Canada
 This is not precisely the result reported from Otawa worked out by experience. For the year ending with October Dominion exports to the United States amounted to $42S,593 900, contrasted with $537, BIT 900 worth of goods hither during our previous fiscal year of 1920. But Dominion inn ports from the United States were $643, 1925 TOO con- trasted with $890, 900 for the previous year. United States imports from Canada thus have fallen off $108,784,000 from ago but United States exports of merchandise to Canada have fallen off than twice much $246, 1909, 300
 At this rate of prosperity progress for the United States under the Fordney emergency tariff it would be several before Canadas deadly exports to this country would have been dried up, but it would be only about year and half from before our own export trade with Canada would have fallen to nothing

GOOD ADVICE TO ALL.

Mark Sullivan the famous Washington corr pendent, in recent article in the New York Pc tells the Democrats how they could perform in manner that would for them the right to car the next Congress, and that probably would result their winning it. The advice is of character th all parties could follow to the vast advantage of country. Mr Sullivan says:
 The Democrats ought to serve notice all those leaders of their party who have ambitions for the Presidency, or for other high distinction that the price of that dis tinction is their willingness serve the party and the country by serving in Congress and furnishing it the vitality and leadership which it now sadly lacks There is reason why men like McAdoo Cox hesitate to get in at the bottom again, so to speak by entering the lower house of Congress.
 MT. McAdoo and Mr. Coby-to run for Congress from that State. At least they ought to get one of them to run for Con- gress and the other for the Senate, in which New York will have vacancy fill year. They ought also to get ex-Secretary of War Newton D. Baker to run for the lower house from Ohio. They ought to get another ex-Cabinet member-E. T. Meredth--to for the lower house from Iowa. They ought to get Josephus Daniels to for the Senate from North Carolina. They ought to get Homer Cummings to run for Congress from Connecticut and Vance Mccormick from Pennsylvania. They ought to draft B. M Baruch to run from New York and Thomas Nelson Page from Virginia They ought to put up Henry Ford in Michigan and Nice-Presdent Thomas R. Marshall in In- diana. John w. Davis, should be put up in West Virginia.
 Can any doubt that if the country saw the Democrats making effort to put all their outstanding of talent like these into Congress the country would be favoraby impressed? It is not merely that of this distinction would be likely to win in their various States and districts In ad- dition to that. the effect of putting up ts group of such well-known men would stimu- late and encourage the Democrats in every other district, and would get added everywhere throughout the country. The men already named do not exhaust the list of Democratic talent which the party could present to the country earnest of their promise to raise the level of ability in the House and Senate.
 One of the unfortunate things concerning rece American history is the fact that few of the real big men of the country enter public life. The N ton has many who have gained experience many vacations, many lawyers and business men ar others, whose active careers have given them know dge that would be invaluable to the country me

The meeting of the Investment Bankers Associa- tion at New Orleans heard pertinent advice from two speakers, who dealt with the problem pro tecting the small investor from becoming the prey of swindlers. Stress laid upon the awakening Interest of the banks to this need and the efforts being made to induce those with funds invest to consult their local banks regarding the good faith of the enterprises under consideration.
