"American Valuation" in
the Tariff

biggest merchants in the United States seeking
to combine the influence of American merchants against
the dangerous American valuation joker the suggested
tariff bill.
just tariff, intended to protect industry commerce.
labor and the public says the foreign manufacturer
seller and worker: "You work under conditions different
from conditions in this country Your workmen paid
less Our workmen cannot compete Our manufacturers
cannot compete because Of higher costs here
We do not propose that workers. industry shall
be swamped with competition they cannot meet We pro-
pose that Americas buying shall build up American pros
perity
Therefore obliged fairly and in proportion
to the difference in of production all goods product
Of labor and thought that you send to this country
tariff based common and justice estimates and
discovers the value the cost of goods IN EUROPE And
when the goods enter this market the tariff imposes fixed
charge, based upon THE VALUE IN EUROPE of the for
eign goods sold here.
On that basis this country managed tariffs the
beginning. Goods cost much IN EUROPE This in
dcates the proper amount of taxation HERE and it laid
accordingly.
Now the effort is made to substitute so-caled AMERI
CAN valuation for the regular system of taxation based
costs ABROAD The American valuation suggested is
based the desire charge here any price that
may be thought desirable by the industrious profeer

making possible to add so 500 per cent to fair and
normal price for goods produced in this country.
In other words under American valuation" system
which is AMERICAN at ALL but purely proteerng
system the in America would be utterly at the
mercy of price that the producer here chose to charge
tariff reasonably based foreign cost fair to labor
manufacturers and capitalists in this country is what is
wanted tariff should give to the the benefit
of fair amount of competition, and prevent unlimited
profteering and overchargng in this country.
Take away. the system of tariffs based VALUE IN
EUROPE and substitute taxation based any arbitrary
imaginary socaled American valuation" and you have
taken away all protection for the consumer
In addition, by such vicious so-caed Amercan vaua-
on you would disorganze business make it impossible
for merchants with any degree of certainty to buy they

The March
of EUents
rHE decision of the Supreme
i Court of Mexico maintaining

active, ueciSloH Tcdiiy hcdhoio q
happy solution of dangerous prob
lem. ..
Very quietly, but very rapidly,
Mexico is becoming stabilized under
the excellent government Of Presi-
dent Obregon, and is entering upon
a career of order and prosperity.
The potential riches Of the Mexican
Republic are enormous. Timidity
of capital was the only bar to de-
velopment upon huge scale. And
now that investments in Mexico are
as safe as they are anywhere, that
fine country will make rapid prog
reSs.
Mexico is perhaps the most richly
mineralized country on this CONT
nent. The certainty of fair dealing
by the present government has al
ready led California mining engi-
neers, backed by California capital
lists, to explore the river valleys of
Sonora and Sinaloa, long known to
contain gold, and the richness and
magnitude of the placer gold areas
discovered by this expedition are al
most beyond belief. These new
Mexican fields exceed all the famous
placer fields discovered in other
parts of the world put together.
The reports of the expedition, pub
ished in the financial and business
columns of the San Francisco Ex-
aminer, have aroused the eager in
terests of the Western mining men,
and it will be no long time until
they will be at work in these won
derful new gold fields.
If the new fields are only a tenth
OF a hundredth part as extensive
and rich as skilled and trustworthy
American mining experts report
them to be, Mexico will have gold
enough to put its credit beyond
reach of suspicion and thousands of
millions will be poured into the
channels of world exchange.
The monarchists are gaining
strength in Germany. Whether they
regain power or not depends wholly
upon economic conditions. AT pres
ent Germany appears to be busy and
prosperous. But the whole super
structure of business is built upon
a foundation of paper marks-and
fiat money is not a permanent
foundation.
The German monarchists are play
ing the game of the French i'm
perialists. 1t is strange that grown
up men can be so stupid as not to
perceive that.
BRAND leads the sensible people
in France, who are heartily opposed
to"imperiaGsm and to a continuance
of militarism. Foch, Millerand,
Viviani and Tardieu are the leaders
of the imperialists and militarists.
As long as Germany remains an
orderly Republic, the reasonable
party in France can hold power and
thwart the Chauvinists. But let
the monarchists and old military
order get control in Germany, and
instantly the militarists will get
control in France. And then fare
well to peace in Europe.
The Japanese seem to be making
a real effort to come to the Wash
ington Conference with fairly clean
hands. But it is hard for a military
despotism, thoroughly committed to
a gigantic imperialistic design of
conquering all Asia, to let go of the
lands it has already stolen or sub
jugated by brutal force.
The greatest achievement of. the
Administration is that of

BRITISH EXPEDITION IS
SCALING HIGHEST PEAK

London, Eng, Nov. 7.-(By the AS
ISOLATED Press)-Sir Francis Young
husband, president of the Royal Geo
graphical Society announced tonight
that the expedition sent to attempt to
reach the summit of Mount Everest
in the Himalayas the worlds highest
peak, had accomplished the task set
for this year.
After exporting the mountain. G. II.
Bullock and Mr.. Mallory reached a
point on the northeastern spur 5000
feet below the summit from which a
way to the summit seemed reasonably
practical.
I'VE now have to find men, Sir Fran
els said, who can stand the terrific
blizzards and the frightful cold they
will encounter on those crucial two
miles of the knife-edged ridge"
He added that the society must re-
organize the expedition and find new
leader to take the place of Colonel
Howard Bury who would be unable to
devote more time to it. Six men he
said would be needed for the climbing
party.

ALLEGED BLUEBEARD
GOES ON TRIAL

Versailles, Nov. 7.-For three hours
today Henri Desire Landru describ-
ed as the "bluebeard of Gambais,"
listened to the reading of his indict-
ment unfolding a tale of horrors,
which If he is found guilty will stamp
him as one of the most remarkable
criminals known.
Tomorrow he will take the stand.
Landru sat apparently unconcerned
thruout the reading which with the
roll call of witnesses and the selec-
tion of the jury occupied the first
session of his trial.
He is on trial in connection with
the disappearance of 10 promised
brides" and the son of one of the
women.
Police have been unable to find any
trace of the missing persons.
