Marketing Milk

THE MARKETING OF WHOLE MILK
By H T.. Erdman Published by the
Macmillan Company. 81.
FHNHE difficult problem of transporting
milk from the COW to the ultimate
city consumer is discussed in all it's
phases in this book. The author drives
home his points with numerous charts,
tables and diagrams. He advocates the
practice of collective bargaining by the
milk producers and the creations of nom
political expert commissions to regu-
late the trade. He does not believe
that the problem of marketing milk can
be satisfactorily solved while pro-
ducers, dealers and consumers are sn-
gagged in fighting each other. "What
ia needed" he writes, is a better un-
derstanding all around, greater
spirit Of frankness. a recognition by
each that the others have rights that
are to be respected; that each group
is composed of human beings actuated
by the same human impulses, and that
all can gain by cooperation and mutual
understanding"

Song in Mare Nostrum

Whatever the subject happens to be
that comes un and attracts public at
tention for q moment or a month, that
energetic and many-sided Spanish au-
thor, V. Blasco Ibanez, has usually
written something about it somewhere
or touched upon it in some one cf those
many novels Of his which his American
publishers, E. P. Dutton & Co., are
making familiar in this country. Some
one has discovered now that he has in
"Mare Nostrum" q paragraph about
Tosellis Serenade, which is getting to
be as much the rage in this country az
it has been for two or more years in
Europe, where it has sold over a mil
lion copies. Blasco Ibanez shows his
Circe-like character Freya, moved and
inhenced by the music in critical
emotional situation in this wise: "a
light, gentle music, like the vibration
of fragile and delicate crystal, spread
itself over the terrace. Freya fol-
lowed its rhythm with a faint motion
of the head She was accustomed to
this sweet music, this Serenata of
Toselli--a passionate lament that al
ways touches the soul of the tourist in
the halls of the grand hotels. She, who
at other times had ridiculed this art
full and refined little melody. now felt
tears yelling up in her eyes,

which was, of course, determined chief
ly by the belligerent circum stances
and by the military necessities of the
nation. Since the war and the armi-
stice some Of the greatest industrial
conflicts ever known have occurred, in
which Lord Askwith was again most in
timately and infuentially concerned.
In fact, there has been nothing Of con-
troversial interest in the history of
British industry during the last gener-
alton which is not set forth in these
pages with the highest possible official
authority and with an impartiality, a
benevolence Of vision and an enlight-
ened reasonableness above all praise.
1t is exclusively British work.
Yet so close is in many respects the
analogy between British and Amer
lean industrialism that the philoso-
phical conclusions of the writer are
about as pertinent to the United States
as to the United Kingdom. Indeed, the
book is Of simply inestimable interest
to every one who believes, with it's
distinguished author, that "if the
orderly advance Of peaceful develop
ment is to be obtained, in place of the
surging storms of hatred and strife,
there must be more knowledge, SO that
men should not blindly follow guides
who may be blind. There must be
simple and plain modes of bringing
forward grievances and avoiding dis
putes by all honorable means, and Of
composing difficulties when they arise,
justly and equitably There
must be desire of common interest,
and if possible of unifying common
interest, partly by the touch Of human
and personal sympathy, partly by the
joint interest of material gain, with
the ideal OF joint service. It is the
spirit, not paper systems, which alone
can prevent war and reduce the rea-
sons for industrial strife.''
1t is in that spirit that Lord Ask
with has for many years been laboring
for the settlement OF disputes by
understanding, and it is In that spirit
that he has written this remarkable
volume, one Of the most valuable
treatises on present-day industrialism
of which we have knowledge.
New-York tribune., 1921-08-07

T ORD ASKWITH, whom we used
y to know as Mr.. and then
d Sir George Ranken Askwith
has for many years been rec
ognized as one Of Great Britain's very
foremost authorities on industrial
problems, on disputes between labor
and capital and on arbitration and
other methods Of avoiding costly and
distressing strikes, lock-outs and boy
colts. For many years he had been
chief industrial commissioner and
chairman of the fair wages advisory
committee as we'll as an important off,
clal of the board of trade, and as
personal arbitrator and conciliator in
trade disputes he has probably done as
much to promote the mutual interests
OF employers and employees as any
ether Briton of his generation.
In the present encyclopedia work he
presents detailed and highly interest
ing history of British industrial prob
lens and disputes during the last
thirty years or more, written from his
personal observation and knowledge Of
proceedings and events in large pro-
portion of which he personally partici-
pated, often in a decisive manner. But
it. is much more than mere narrative,
valuable as that would be. 1t is a
philosophical explication and discus
sion of the acts which it records, tell
Ing how each dispute arose, what were
the contentious on each side and by
what means and to what effect it was
finally settled.
Lord Askwith goes back as far as the
great lockers strike Of 1889 and tells
it's story. Other notable landmarks in
the narrative are the Cancellation act
of 1896; the Taft Vale case Of 1906,
which at that time was considered to
be the most important in the whole an
mails of British industrialism and
James Larkin's sensational and tragic
attempt in 1913 to establish the Trans
port Workers Union as the zone big
union" in Ireland These were all be-
fore the World War. During the war
other problems arose, treatment of

Published by Harper q Bros. 81
FE>HE new rural credit system en-
bodied in the Federal farm loan
act is clearly and authoritatively ex-
planned in this book by the vice-presi-
dent of the Federal Land Bank of St.
Paul. Mr.. Wiprud shows that the Fed

services besides making loans, and that
they may we'll prove an important fac
tor in checking the drift from the
