AS distinguished from the Senate
measure. the Porter resolution would
declare the state of war at4an end, but
without repeal of the war resolutions.
Representative Porter explained it was
unnecessary and perhaps unwise'' to
repeal the war resolutions because
such action might be construed az a

The system of nations in-arms was

General Shuts said the other day, the
way to kill militarism is to disarm.
When disarmament is universal, the
nations will confer and negotiate a
longer time before resorting to war:
But two great military powers re-

Statesmen of the world have as their

the United States and Great Britain
and Japan to discontinue naval con-

agreement William Hughes, the Austria

FRIDAY, APRIL %, 1921.
A GREAT GAIN FROM THE WA

Duluth Herald: Spillane
writing in the Philadelphia Public
Ledger, produces some figures that are
of the highest importance in many ways
They show where the war securities is
sued by the government are now.
Where do you suppose they are! We
have all heard Of people hurrying to sell
them, turning them into full. coats and
silk stockings and automobiles and
monographs and new furniture; and
they did do that to a very large extent.
That was tho reason Why the bonds
went down in price, though q greater
reason was that interest rates ran up
and tie bonds ran down to seek their
level az return value. Judging from
what everybody knows about this pro
cess, most people would guess that the
bonds now were largely owned by the
banks.
They are not. They are largely owned
by the people. -:.@
Mr. Spillane' e figures, based on the
bank returns at the end Of the year, are
briefly as follows: The total amount of
such securities outstanding was about
42l ,OOO, 900 900; national banks owned
$2,13l,573, 600; state banks, trust COM
panies, etc, owned 1886, 945, 900; inc
balance, 81 ,sS2, 42s, 900, was still in the
hands Of the people. =
ty Bonds through folly or necessity, on
the other hand many, too, have wisely
bought these truly gilt-edged securities
at their attractive prices prices still
attractive, by the way, and still repre-
senting the best investment in the
world.
Probably if the statistics of individ-
ual ownership were available they would
show that q pretty large proportion Of
these securities is owned by large
holders; but they would also show that
a splendidly large proportion Of them is
held by small owners. Says Mr.. Spill

It is a tremendous asset today.
It represents more than the COM ~.
bined national wealth of Holland

It is q towering monument to
American patriotism and thrift.
Thespatriotism was something of
which there never was doubt, but
the proof Of thrift astounds. :.
Couple with this splendid showing the
fact that never in the history of Wall
Street h1s go large a proportion Of the
financing OF enterprises been supported
by buyers Of small lots of stocks and
bonds, and you have picture Of the
new America-an America no longer
depending for its capital on the thrift

thrift and = financial sagacity of it's
own, born out Of the driving need of

WHAT A EARnGERs' WIFE BARNS
Red Wing Eagle:-We note where the
University Of Nebraska has inquired in.
to the place the farmers wife occupies
in farm economy, and it reports that if
she were paid on the same basis as other
people her yearly earnings would
amount to $4,000. First, as 4 cook, she
earns SO week. And at that she has
no days off and is expected to be on
the job all the time. She generally is,
a. every farmers wife can testify.
Then, she does all the washing and iron
ing, and for that she is allowed IS per
week.
On an average, there are 10 days Of
sickness each year on a. farm and in
those trying times, the farmers wife,
if she is not the one who is sick, has to
be nurse. For this, the man who made
the figures allowed. .$75 per year, assum-
ing the wage Of nurse in the country
is $25 week. She does the sewing,
and should be credited with So week
for that. Add to all these items the
fact that she does the scrubbing and
cleaning, picking and preserving and
teacher for the children, and the man at
the University says she easily earns
$4,000 a year. =,
