RETAIL TRADE
Tnrin Dimcnlties.

The average price oil all except
four principal items OF American i'm
port trade was less in November
than in earlier months Of 1920, &C
cording TO a complication by the Ma
tional CITY bank. The fact is an in
deX OF world prices, which are tend
ing downward Raw cotton, for eX-
ampel imported at 28.7c a pound
against CSC in August, silk at $6.3-
a pound against SIPS in March.
Manila hemp at $245 per ton
against 1877 in July, flax at 1912 per
ton against $2.64S in August, and
coffee at 1873 pound against 22.1c
in January. The conclusion is that
America may increase its imports to
advantage, these Price reductions all
contributing toward a lower cost OF
living.
In the face Of price exhibits like
the foregoing and the necessity of
promoting free exchange of goods
with debtor nations, which by in
CrvasinE exports and thus alone, can
avoid international BANKRUPTCY, con
gressmen find themselves balanced
dangerously between the frying pan
and the fire. A few domestic indus
tries like the wool industry need
emergency protection. Furthermore.
the country needs revenue. But TO
satisfy all interests that present a

manifestly impossible, while 10 lay

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-"I expect
that an officially accredited represAn-

first time since his arrival in this

word communist" in speaking OF

instead the term I'VE socialists" IN
a recent interview, Mr.. Martens un-
eQuivOcally styled himself a com

Trotzky were communists, and that
the majority Of the Moscow govern

day Martens made plain he and his
government look 10 the socialists not

IMPROVED
ROADS
LARGER REVENUE FOR ROADS
Tendency Toward DeVotIna Increased
Portion Of Motor Vehicles Tax
to Highways.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
For number of years the general
tendency toward devoting an eNer-ln-
creasing portion of the motor-vehlcle
revenues to road work under the
control and direct supervision Of the
state highway departments has been
very noticeable. Prior to 1912 only
very small portion Of the motor-vehlcle
registration was devoted to this
purpose. In 1920, 76 per cent Of the
revenue, or 1881, 5S2,57, was applied
to road work under the direct super
vision of the state highway depart
ments, and In addition $20,465,5 7S.O4
was applied to road work by counties
or other local supervision, but with
little or no direct supervision from the
state highway departments.
In most states the motor-vehicle
revenues are devoted to maintenance
and repair of the state roads or other
improved highways. These states
seem to have solved fairly well the
| difficult problem of securing funds
for the maintenance Of the more i'm
portant roads under the ever-increasing
traffic requirements. AS both the
traffic and the revenues increase with
the number Of cars, there apparently
exists a possibility of so adjusting the
registration rates as to keep pace with
the eYer-grOwing maintenance charges
A number Of the states having in
general but a small mileage Of i'm
proved roads have recently adopted
the plan CT capitalizlng the motor
vehicle revenues and devotlng
these funds to road construction. The
states doing this are Illinois, Maine,
Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, Utah,
and Wyoming. In them bonds have
been voted or Issued for road con-
structlon, and the principal, in some
instances also the interest is to be
paid entirely from the motor-vehicle
revenue.
At the beginning of 1921 there were
still seven states in which motor
trucks were registered at the same
rate as passenger cars, but In recent
years there has been a very decided
tendency in most states to increase
the fees required for motor trucks
over and above those required for
passenger cars. This increase is
usually based on the weight of. the
truck and its carrying capacity, Its
horsepower, or a combination Of these
factors. The most general practice
seems to be toward definitely limiting
the maximum total road weight of the
vehicle and baslng the registration fee

on the capacity Of the truck. Some
few states have adopted a scale Of
fees, which in actual practice serves
to make the operation Of very heavy
trucks impractlcable.
In Colorado, New York, and Oregon,
in addition to the registration fees, a
state tax on gasoline or other products
used for the propulsion of motor
vehicles Is also levied. In some states
motor cars are taxed as personal
property in addition to the required
registration fees. In Alabama, Della

registration fees are in lieu Of all
