Trade of Gold Coast

During 1890 the Gold Coast Col

until that year. In 1920 exports and
imports reached fe6, ,00o. 900. or fS.-
100000 moro than in 1919. Imports
accounted for $4,000. 900. as COM
pared with fS.0ee. 900 in 1919. an in
crease of II per cent. This large
advance in import values is in some
degree accounted for by the in

in numerous instances been larger

Imports OF cotton goods approx

value. Wearing apparel. perfum-
cry, tobacco. hardware. motor ve-
hicles and railway plants also show
considerable increases.
The increased imports of high
priced nonessential articles indicate
that the people possessed a consid-
cradle amount of surplus wealth
for disbursement during the year.
The explanation of this is to be
found in a review of the export
returns relating to domestic pro-
duce. The statistics show that
while over 176.000 tons of cocoa, of
a value of about fs.S00,000, were
shipped overseas in 1919, shipments
for 1920 approximately over 11S.000
tons of a value totaling nearly f10.-
100000. Although, therefore, the
colony exported nearly $4,000 tons
less, the value was E1, soc. 900
greater. Eola nuts and lumber
also show increases in value dur
ing the year. Owing to the influ
ence of cocoas. the exports OF palm
kernels. palm oil and rubber all fell
in value.

THE HEATING PROBLEM WAS A
 SIMPLE ONE IN OIDEN TIMES.

The heating problem for the small house was for our ancestors a very simple mechanical device, consisting, as we all know, of either the fire place or the stove. The former me thod still has a charm which we are not willing to dispense with, although we do not depend upon it's efficiency to do the actual work of warming, but install some more complicated system, such as a steam heating plant to perform the practical work. A fireplace has a sentimental and intel lectua1 warmth that no radiator can supply.
 Even the stove has a certain fas- cination for many, recalling cold win try nights when the family sat about the red d-hot casting, the women knit ting and the men burning their shoe leather and smoking. Some advo- cates of the stove are so energetic in their arguments concerning the ef- Gciency of this method of heating that one almost doubts the defects which lead inventors to manufacture other devices. But the housewife knows the labor of shovelIing coal into three or four stoves, knows the great clouds of hot, fine ashes which rise into the atmosphere and settls upon the shelves, the tops of the pic, ture frames, and the polished surface of the piano.
 And the inventor saw the tired, worn look of the housewife, removed the stove to the cellar and installed tin pipes from this central heater to the various rooms, and then waited for applause and purchasers

MORE WAGE CUTS
 MADE BY BOARD

Continued from Page One)
 the country poured in their applica- tions to the labor board for author ity to make similar reductions A hearing set for June s included a total of 164 roads in the next two weeks; 61 more submissions were made and included in a hearing for June 20. A few roads which had not included all classes of employees in their first petitions for reductions came tin with the remaining classes in the last hearing.
 Many of the roads which asked re- ductions for only a. part of their em- ployes at the original hearing in May came back with applications to cover all employees in these two later hear ings.
 Virtually every railroad in the country affected by the labor board s $500, 100000 wage award of July, 1920, was included in one or more of the three hearings.
 After the twelve per cent. reduc- ton, which was generally unsatisfac- turned to the board with. added in sistence that the 1920 wage award be wiped out. The board, how ever, was not inclined to change it's June 1 decision and merely added to that decision employees involved in the subsequent hearings.
 At the two June hearings the roads, for the most part, contented them selves with reftera ting the evidence presented in May. Their argu- ments consisted chiefly of cost of liv- ing statistics and comparison of rail- road wages with those in outside in dustries. The employees took up oth- CT factors laid down by the trans portation act to be considered in the determination of just and reasonable wages. Hazards of employment, liv- ing wage and similar lines of evl- dence were introduced in an effort to prevent any cut in wages.
 While no definite returns have been from the referendum be- ing taken by all the railroad unions on acceptance or rejection of the IF per cent. cut, it is expected that con ferences here on July 1 will agree to accept the boards decision without any interruption of traffic
