INEXPERTENCED COOKS
FORCED ON HOTEL OWNER.
In the hotel at which we stopped in
Brisbane the woman owner was much
cut up over q law which affected her
STAFF Of employees For twenty years she
had had the same cooks and they had
built up q reputation for splendid cook
ing, to the truth Of which | will cheer
fully testify. Yet notice had been served
on her that she must dispense with these
cooks because they we're nonunion, and in
their stead must take the first unemployed
cooks whose names appeared on the
books OF the cooks union.
'I went down and looked them over, "
she walled. 1.-TWO Of them were last
employed as cooks IN a sheep shearing
ex-arny cooks :"
I am glad that the time limit IN which
she had TO make the change aid not ex-
pire until after l had left Brisbane.
When the labor party started in TO
lower the cost Of living It made the
attempt through engaging in the various
businesses which handle food products
It Jumped cheerfully into the cattle
raising business and bought twenty two
cattle stations, It opened efty-one butcher
shops In various parts Of the State, It
took over FIVE fisheries, It bought and
equipped a dshing trawler for deep
sea work and opened shops for selling
fish. II took over a meat packing plant
and a canning works, It installed a pro-
duce agency which proposed to handle
all kinds Of produce without paying
profits to a middleman, and, as hnal
attempt, opened its own hotel.
The cattle stations are not yet paid
for, the deep-sea fishing was found TO
be too expensive, and the trawler had
to go so far away from Brisbane that
its cargo spoiled before It could get
back. other fsh cannot DO sold at a
profit after the state has paid the fisher
men for their catch, and the other food
businesses are not much more prosper
Gus. To give the devil hts due the fsh-
ing business did succeed IA running OF
the streets the peddlers who used TO
offer tainted fish for sale, and today
they must get their wares from the state
wholesale shop, which insures the fresh
ness OF the catch All OF these businesses
must be paid for some day because the
state bought mostly on credit.
Naturally, Brisbane, having most Of
the population for which It was intend
ed TO lower the cost of living. IS the
place by which to judge the regults OF
the campaign to lower the cost Of living
The cost Of living in Brisbane In 1921
IS 1904 per cent higher than 1t was In

d RISBANE, QUEENSLAND, AUS
n TRALIA-About the time that our
party landed IN Australia, the pa
perE were carrying many articles, most
OF them derisiye. about the efforts OF the
state of Queensland to borrow 100000
from the insnciers In England. I noted
that the official delegated to 90 the Dor
rowing came home in disgust and I
Jotted down IN my notebook a mem
orandum TO discover why Queensland's
credit was no good. 1t seemed rather
strange that a state which every one in
Australia boosted as one Of the greatest
IN natural resources, as the one with the
greatest possibilities IN an agricultural
way, with the most miles OF railways,
with tremendous assets in the way Of
state-owned properties, should not be
able to borrow 100000.
When finally I got to Queensland and
burrOwed into the question 1t was quick
" answered. Not only was every asset
pledged as security fo- its debts, but 1t
WAS scarcely able to pay the interest on
its loans, for 1t would have taken around
g fourth Of the entire revenue OF the
state. Two months after the London
bankers had firmly and fatly refused
even to consider making the loan I was
IN Brisbane, the capital Of Queensland,
and I read that the government had
raised the S1O.OOO.o0O among the peoTle Of
the state themselves.
We'll" thought I, mo matter what the
bankers may think, the people Of Queens
land themselves have unlimited conf
dence IN their state government and its
ability to pay out"
Reading on further, however, l learned
that only 5000 persons ont OF the 100000
in the state had subscribed to the loan.
and accompanying this news was a yelled
threat that the government, even then
preparing to float another loan, contem-
plated passing a law requiring all the
people to subscribe to loans according to
their wealth.
Frankly, 7 don't see how else the state
Of Queensland ever will be able to Dor
row any considerable amount and at the
same time I should hate to be in the shoes
Of the legislators who passed such a law.
Never IN real life have l read a more
weird story Of financial 1szzing such as
has gone on during tho six years IN which
the Labor party has had control IN
Queensland. When finally the ,tate gets
70 the point where 1t cannot squeeze an
other loan from any source, i wonder
what win happen.
UNITED STATES BANK
MAKES BIG LOAN.
This article was written in Queensland
several months ago. The Queensland
government has not changed. The British
inanciers still consider it bad risk and
viii not renew the loans. But to my
great surprise I heard the other day that

VALUES MOVIES
AS BEST MEANS
OF TEACHING
William A. Brady Addresses
Photo Indorsers and
Parent-Teachers.

Moving pictures are the greatest means
for circulating AmericaniZatiOn prOpa-
gRnda that we have" declared William
A. Brady Of New York. president Of the
National Association Of the Motion Pic
ture Industry, in his talk in the Palm
room Of the ClRypool hotel yesterday
given under the auspices Of the Indianf
IndOrsers Of PhOtoplay and the Parent
Teacher Association.
"NO industry gave more valuable aid
: to the Government during the war with
out cost TO the Government than the mo-
tion picture he stated cmphatically.
Mt. Brady cited how at the presen'
time the screen Is being used for the ali
Of the unemployed at the direct reques'
OF President Harding. He said that i
Great Britain the government was begin
ming 70 take heed Of the screen and a
one diplomat said, they are Americana
ing the world" In Japan, Mr.. Brady
stated more people formed their opinion
Of America BY moving pictures than by
any other factor, II is the best anti
dote for hatred there is he said.
Censorship was rapidly scored and IN
Brady as unnecessary, unfair and u
American. Tie said that the idea Of al
lowing four or five people to Judge what
thousands Of people should see was
ridiculous. In most cases some Of which
he cited, appointments were political.
Brady stated that there were laws pro-
hibiting the showing OF indecent pictures
and that what the cities needed was not
censorship. but proper police authorities.
He told Of how the reputable producers
had standardized pictures, had banded to-
gether and drawn up rulings as to the
characters Of pictures with a penalty az
fixed for those not holding to the stand
ard. The action was taken IN March, 1921,
and Mr. Brady declared that in the six
months time that practically 90 per cent
Of Objectionable films had been eliminated
and in six months more, he predicted
that the other 10 per cent would dis
appear.
Mr.. Brady congratulated the Indiana
Indorsers on their work IN Indiana, say
ing that they had done more in the move
msnt for good pictures than any
censor board He pledged the aid of
the producers and his federation to the
Indorsers the Parent, Teachers, Church
4 Federation and educators OF Indiana to
' prevent the making and exhibiting OF
disreputable films. He said that the
producer wanted the help and coop
Grafton OF such bodies.
'"The motion picture men want your
help, they do not want to be branded
as a criminal class" he said We should
not be judged by one black sheep, that
one person should not ruin the re-
mainder Of motion picture people in
public opinion any more than the mis-
behavior OF one banker or one priest
would brand all the h1nkers and church
leaders as bad. Don't Judge us by our
black sheep! Judge us by what we
want to do, what we are doing, for
we are holding In our hands something
wonderful. great instrument for do

But not only does the state operate
businesses having to do with the cost Of
living. 1t has tackled mining to the
extent OF six mines, the lumber business

poslrs Of 10000 600, n greater amount per

vance 70 settlers and the money which is
advanced for the erection Of homes for the
workers. However, the advances, once
limited to small amounts sufficient to let
r workingman build a home, have been
Increased so greatly that men Of means
have been able to borrow enough to build
expensive homes and the little fellow has
to wait until the state gets more money
before he can borrow.
Railways have taken the biggest part
Of the money spent by the state under
labor control about 50 per cent to be
exact. The interest on its debt, educa-
ton, police and its business undertsk-
/ ings have eaten up the remainer. Moth
ing has been spent to get the greatly
needed immigrant, nothing on good roads,
nothing on telegraphs, nothing on har-
oors or lighthouses, and nothing on tbs
national defense.
GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS
EXTREMELY ORNATE.
The visitor to Brisbane will find near
the downtown business section great piles
Of masonry, handsome, ornate buildings
which house the state departments. They
are indeed. a credit to the state-but
they cost money the state could i'll afford
20 spend, Other states in far better hnnn-
oial condition are stul content to have
their offices IN whatever buildings are
available, but not so in Queensland
The railways, upon which so much has
been spent, have not been able to pay for
themselves. The ran employees have been
doubled under the present government, but
the number OF train miles run has bsen
cut 10 per cent Fares have been low
and other expenses incident to travel
lower. but Queensland. with more rails
than any other state, had deficit last
year more than three tiIaea as great as
the next highest state and took in less
money per mile than any OF them.
TAXATION RECEIPTS
ARE INADEQUATE.
The revenues OF the state-from taxa
tion. railways, the islands attached to
Queensland, the receipts from licenses,
etc, and the money received from the
federal government = Queensland's
share Of tho custom, has fallen far
short Of its needs Yet taxation has been
increased almost 300 per cent under labor
government. In 1914 # was just short Of
