THE SAD TALE OF MICKEY THE
MORON

THE SAD TALE OF MICKEY THE
MORON.
When Mickey the Moron to Sing
sing was sent,
For seven consecutive terms,
The doctors averred that this Grim
inal bird
Was a victim Of larceny germs.
So they mugged him one Gay with an
X-ray machine.
And when. undeniably plain.
The picture revealed where the
germs were concealed,
They took out i hunk of his brain.
The patient was cured OF the habit
OF theft;
In a bank they could turn him
adrift
Among screen-wire tills full of nice
yellow bills
And never a one would he lift.
And yet a fresh criminal fancy he
took
Which set the poor doctors aghast:
At night he'd go down 10 a dark
part OF town
And kill every person that passed.
This bothered the medical men quite
a bit;
II bothered the sheriff still more,
Though the man was bereft OF the
habit OF theft
He did far more harm than be-
fore.
So again was removed a snail patch
or hts roof
To save the poor chap from the
halter.

EXPERT OR MISANTHROPE?

cause It brings her into notice She disarms
others by throwing herself their mercy. She
takes delight In discovering I'm others the faults

His experience. it is indicated has been unfor-
tunate and probably narrow.
Someday perhaps he may take occasion to probe
into the cause of nagging by For each one

bitterness soured the kindly sentiments of his

cason for a twisted view Of life.
Upon the evidence of the comment submitted the
claim OF Author Scott to standing as an expert IA
his judgment Of women may well be questioned
There comes the compelling suggestion that he has

AMERICAN VALUATION.

| EDITOR News-Times:
Sir:-The importers of America
are united in a strenuous fight
against the American valuation plan
in the Fordney tariff bill. Where is
the interest OF American labor and
American industry? Is 1t with the
importer, whose goods are made by
foreign workers at much less wage
than ever prevailed here. or is II
with the American manufacturer
who pays American wages?
In 1914 skilled laborers in Ger
many received about $40 marks per
day, equivalent at that time, at 23.S
cents per mark. to 5000. In 1920
such skilled laborers received the
equivalent Of 70 cents per day
which, If converted into marks at
the present rate OF exchange, .013,
amounts TO about Sc marks per day,
Figuring the duty on the labor con-
tent alone. it follows that an article
costing $50 marks in 1914 would cost
about seven times that amount, or
l, $50 marks, in 1921. equal to about
lS13.65. An ad valorem duty of
80 ID percent imposed upon that
value in 1914 would amount TO
s11.9O. instead Of s4.55, the duty
that would be collected at the same
rate in 1921.
Another thing to be considered
Wages for skilled labor in Germany,
measured in terms Of United States
money, have fallen from $2.09 per
day in 1914 to 70 cents per day in
1920. On the other hand. in the
United States the wages of skilled
labor between 1914 and 1920 have
materially advanced. So. while the
wages in Germany in 1921 are less
than kGif what they were in 1914,
they practically doubled in the
United States between 1914 and
1920. 1t therefore follows that the
duty in 1921. instead of being made
less. as 1t certainly would be If i'm
posed upon the foreign value, should
be made more than il was in 1914
because Of the difference in labor
costs between the two countries.
Labor is the big item in all manu-
featured merchandise. Does Ameri-
can labor wish 10 accept the scale of
German workmen? Our factories
certainly can't keep running if Ger
many is allowed to send goods in at
much lower cost than they can be
made here. Adequate protection is
needed and the American valuatioD
plan is the best plan that has been
offered to meet this abnormal situa-
ton. f. d.
