wv HlIE wool is at present OF the chief

which has greatly increased the exports. Expert

Merino sheep imported from abroad and the native

wool of twice the quality and quantity the ndi-

Sleeps wool from Tibet, while OF better quality
than that from Mongolia Manchuria, compares
unfavorably in price because of high transportation
charges. Camels wool is produced in Mongolia and
Chinese Turkestan. Russia consumes most of the
yield in the manufacture of sweaters and quilts, al
though the United States takes certain amount for
the manufacture of carpets Prior to the war, Amer
lea took the entire supply from China of goats wool,
but when the broke out the Japanese became
buyers and in 1918 took two-thrds of the entire
output. Tientsin is the center OF goats wool pro-
duction in the northern province and Ningpo is the
market for the Yangtze yield, which, however is in
considerable.

~ last Wednesday the separate treaty with
~ Austria was signed in Vienna and the treaty
with Germany would have been signed the same
day but for technicalty which caused a temporary
postponement of the ceremony. The negotiations
the greatest has been taken that the terms of
the treaties should not be revealed until they have
been signed by the of the
concerned. The chief interest naturally centers in
the German treaty, and the secrecy which has at
tended its negotiation has created additional interest
especially among those who. believe in the literal
application of the doctrine 81 open covenants openly
arrived at" From the information available the dark
suspicious which this secrecy has aroused are not
justified by the facts 1t is reliably reported that this
treaty contains the following provisions: Ger

the United States Bureau OF Mines. No practical
roofing material has yet been found that can excel
natural slate for permanence or satisfactory service
says the bureau In judging the permanence Of a
roof the age of the building it covers is commonly
regarded being the age Of the roof, but this may
not be true criterion
1t is reported that in the Peach Bottom slate dis
trict of Pennsylvania and Maryland the states
were used on seven successive buildings during
Period OF years, and in England states have
commonly been moved from structure to another.
American history covers so brief period that it can
properly record only the initial stages OF the life OF
a slate roof, and this account multitudes OF
people have little conception OF the actual period OF
useful service slate roof is capable of rendering.
Consequently must go to the Old World to OBJ
tain records OF real value.
In England and Wales, and in France many
buildings constructed in the fifteenth and sixteenth
centuries rooted with slate, and the roofs are
still in excellent condition. There is a record OF
chapel in Bedfordon-Avon in Wiltshire, England,
rooted with slate in the eighth century and after 1900
years of climatic exposure the roof is moss-covered
but in good condition.
Slate was originally formed from mud or soft
clay, carried down by streams and laid down in Sue
cessive layers in deep The pressure of super
imposed materials gradually congresses the clay into
a firm rock known shale. In many places this
shale was, during the succeeding ages, subjected to
intense pressure and folding due mountain build
ing forces within the earth. This intense pressure
together with high temperature changed the clay into
other minerals such mica chlorite and silica, which
very resilient to wcahering, and also developed
very definite cleavage splitting direction which
characterizcs the rock slate. 1t is this property
which renders slate of value for roofing for by using
broad chiscl and wooden mallct, slate worker
readily split it into thin sheets which later
trimmed into rectangles of various sizes.

will not be opposed by that party. Senator's Johnson
and Borah not present at the meeting of the
committee with Mr., Hughes and have indicated
the they intend to follow but it clear that
if the reconcabe opponents of the Versailles treaty
feel compelled to retain at any their attitude of
irreconclablity they will be obliged to evolve new
set of arguments. 1t is separate treaty and it re-
the rights of the United States as one of the
victorious powers. 1t does, of course recognize the
treaty of Versailles by name, which may be too
much for some of its opponents to swallow, but the
treaty stands and will continue to stand whether we
reject it or accept it or ignore it.

TARLY relief for the Russians, to be actively
- conducted by organization. the American
relief administration, may now be looked for.
following the announcement that agree
ment had been reached between the Russian envoy,
NJ Litvinof, and Walter Lyman Brown. representing
the relief organization The work will be entirely
conducted by Americans, It stated, and
ganizatioa will have it in charge.
President Harding wrote to Herbert Hoover, az
head of the relief administration, as follows:
"As you are aware, have given my fullest ap-
proval Of the action the part OF the American
relief administration in initiating effort to mitigate
the famine in Russia particularly to the lives
OF children. ] know that the entrance OF America
into the problem of Russia through the full heart of
charity is that will appeal to the whole American
people.
my particular purpose in addressing this letter
to you is to emphasize my wish that the distribution
in Russia Of all charity arising in the United States
should be carried on through the American or.
ganization. 1t is only through single American rep
iesentation and administration that we can assure
to both American and Russian people the best serv-
ice in the use OF their funds.
Il am asking the Department of State to CO.
operate in directing that passports be given for
travel to Russia relief work only to persons who
may be in the service Of the American relief admin
istration.
at is also of importance that the American peo-
pie should be protected so far do so, from
tnoSe persons VINO may wish to thrive great dis
asters by creating unnecessary organizations to col
lcct charity.
Il trust therefore, that all those in America who
charably inclined will give their support either
to the American relief administration or to such
organizations may undertake to cooperate with
that administration"
All of the principal American organizations win
cooperate with each other in work in Russia and
have been in constant contact Russian ques-
tions, said Mr.. Hoover. All the important childrens
relief organizations have in fact co-ordnated their
efforts for the past year in the European relief coun
cil meeting of the council has been called for
carly next week to consider the joint arrangements
to be undertaken for Russian administration. This
council comprises the following:
The American relief administration american
friends service committee, American Red Cross Fed
eral council of the Churches of Christ in America
Jewish joint distribution committee, Knights of Co
lurnbus, Young Mems Christian Association, Young
Women's Christian Association, the Catholic welfare
committee. -
1t is not the intention of the American relief
administration to make any public appeal for funds
as it feels that the economic situation in America
does not warrant such demand until the whole
employment and business situation is greatly inn
proved. Any persons who desire to contribute are
to do through any of the co-operat-
ing organizations

Wage cuts announced in the past four months by
the United States Steel Corporation should bring the
company's labor per ton of finished steel down
close to the 1917 average of $2324
This compares with the average in 1920 OF 5000,
in 1919 of $3o.os, in 1918 Of $3264, and in 1913 OF
$I6.74.
There are two factors entering into this re-
ducon Fist is the actual decrease in wages OF the
steel corporations workers, and secondly there is
the increased efficiency of the workers themselves
For eleven Of the twelve months in 1920, when
the labor cost per ton of finished steel was S4oSo
wage rate of day labor 46 cents an hour, with
time and one-hal paid for overtime. In other words
for the average ten-hour day. the day laborer drew
46 cents hour for eleven hours, or $500 a day.

turn be made to the scale of 1878.

drivers. He declared that employees
at the Walsen mines had agreed to
accept the cut. He did not know
