vanadiun Weak

One Of the weak spots in the market
yesterday was vanadium Corporation Of
America stock, which slumped in strik-
ing manner, rejecting uneasiness re-
garding the action the directors may
take regarding dividends at their meet
ing early next week. More than 10000
shares Of Vanadium changed hands,
the stock opening at 30A and declin-
ing to 26, with recovery at the close
to 28A, showing there net loss of
2 points. The present dividend rate
is 81 year.

Submarine Boat

The Submarine Boat Corporation is
buying its own shares in the open mar
ket, using surplus funds, and to date is
understood to have accumulated ap-
proximately $4,000 shares. At the end
of 1920 the company carried in its
treasury $3.50 shares which had been
purchased for $629 381 in the aggre-
gate, making the average cost about $11
a share. Last October the directors set
aside $500,000 for this purpose, and
later the amount was increased to
$780, 900.

Bankers were fairly liberal in the of

business was done shade under 6

SOMETHING WRONG.

There is something wrong with our system or our laws.
 The farmers are securing such q low price for most of their products that 1t IS a question whether next year they will raise more than mere ly enough for their own use. and yet the consumer is compelled to pav the same old high prices for these products.
 Southern cotton planters have be- come desperate because they cannot sell their cotton crops for enough to pay the cost of production, yet in many places the price of cotton goods has been reduced very little. There promises to be enough cotton on hand to run us through next year.
 The laborer is being asked and ex- pected to reduce his wage in order to help reduce the cost of living. Wages are being reduced, in some cases with the knowledge and con- sent of the wage earners; in other cases without it. But they continue to pay high prices for the necessities of life.
 The world seems 10th to let loose of the high profits which have pre- vailed during the frenzied period through which we have just passed. There will have to be an adjustment of profits before we get back to nor nal.
 Only last Sunday the newspapers carried the story of a flock of cot ton mills in South Carolina. These mills had combined capital of some thing more than $S,000,000 and their combined profits last year were more than $6,000,000. In other words the mills nearly made their money back ast year; made more probably than had originally been put into the mills in actual cash.
 There is something radically wrong when things like this can happen.

SAVE THE ESSENTIALS.

We hope that Gov .-McRae is wrong when he says that the "gang" is after him and is going to try to discredit him.
 The people of the state and the democratic state convention have en- dorsed the next governors platform and it is evident that this platform should be carried out.
 Gov. McRae may be brought to see that it would be unwise to abol- ish the corporation commission, be- cause it is very evident that there will have to be a body of some kind to look after the matters over which this commission is now supposed to have jurisdiction.
 We do not take kindly to Mir Me Rae's idea of volunteer commis- sion to serve without pay. It is not natural to suppose that any set of men are going to prove patriotic enough to devote the time necessary for the work of this commission without pay.
 There should be men in the legis- lature with brains enough to work the objectionable features out of this bill and then secure the services of patriotic men to serve at a just and equitable salary.
 There are many other ways to reduce the expenses of government. There is the oil inspection depart ment, which has spent $72,000 dur ing the last biennial period. There are several other places where the knife can be used to excellent ad- vantage.
 The penitentiary might be made to produce a balance instead of a deficit. Many clerkships might be dispensed with.
 But lets not have any of the es sentials cut off.
Cleveland County herald., 1921-01-13
THE PARDONINC POWER

i Gov.-elect McRae has made one announcement that will meet with general approval. He says that par don attorneys and professional poli- ticians might just as well leave hope behind when they appear before him asking executive clemency for some client.
 There is no doubt that the par doning power has often been abused because some man with a "pull' has been employed to secure the pardon.
 MT. McRae also says that he will not ask for a pardon board, but feels that he will be entirely capable of attending to the matter himself. If he listens to the trial judge and the prosecuting attorney, as he states he will do, he will probably not make many mistakes.
 The pardoning power has been grossly abused, not only in Arkansas but in most other states When par dons are easily obtained, when men are even pardoned before they have served any part of their sentence 1t creates contempt for the law that is not easily overcome.
 Very few men are uniustly sent to prison in this country. The trouble is usually the other way around and punishments are more likely to be too light rather than too severe.
 We have too much sympathy with law breakers. This does not only include the governor, who has the pardoning power, but the people themselves are too prone to sign a petition for the release of some man who is serving a just sentence for some crime he has committed.
 People should not blame the gov ernor to readily for exercising his power of pardoning criminals when they are just as ready to sign a pc tition for a pardon.

EUROPE MOVING TO AMERICA

In testifying before the inmigra. ton committee, Commissioner Walli: stated that Europe was literally nov. ing to America. He says there is q ray of hope in the fact that the steamships can only bring 1,300,000 immigrants per year.
 A year ago when everything was speeded up to the highest pitch and labor was at premium these immi- grants might have been welcomed But now with business practically at a standstill and large numbers of men idle it would seem that the flow of immigration only tends ot aggra- vate matters.
 At this time there is nothing to be gained by permitting these foreign CTS to flood the country.
 The reports that Eastern Europe is in the grip of epidemics of typhus, typhoid, dyssentery and tuberculosis should be another strong argument in favor of restricting immigration 1t this time. But it seems that the committee on immigration is not moved by all these reports and the knowledge that there are thousands of idle men in this country.
 The restriction of immigration for one year would not help much, but just at this time it would be or some advantage. There is little likelihood that we will see such a great demand for labor during the next year as prevailed during the one just pass ed, and we have ample labor to care for the country's business for some time to come.

KEEP AN EYE OUT.

Tramp, tramp, tramp, the boys arc marching.
 The festive hobo is still circulating freely in our midst and he is getting so insistent for his handout that he bats the backdoor at all hours in the night.
 With all the crimes that are being committed throughout the length and breadth of the country the presence of the tramp constitutes d menace that should not be overlooked.
 The police of the north are getting so hot behind the criminals that many of them will begin to drift south, if they have not already done so. The shoot-to-kill orders will scare some of the more timid into leaving and the cold weather vii drive others to the South.
 The smaller localities may be tn, victims of the hold-up men and thug, i which have made life terror il the larger cities. Therefore the officers of the law and the citizen themselves should be on the lookou for suspicious characters. i Situated as We are, on the mai, line of a trunk railway, it is ia vorite route for the gentlemen 0 the underworld who seek to trave without paying fares.

FALLING PRICES DUE
 TO PROPAGANDA

Six months ago ninety-nine out of every one hundred of our population not living OR farms were "rooting," as they say at the baseball games, for the prices of farm products to come down. Prices have come down and so have the business and profits of those short-sighted merchants, manufacturers, and lahorers who were hollering for lower prices for the other fellows products. Busi- ness can never be good, nor can the non-farming population be prosper ous when the farmer is producing at little or no profit, and certainly not when he must sell at loss. The reason is plain. The farmers are our largest producers. They pro- duced $25, 100000, ,000 in 1919, and they constitute in numbers about 40 percent of the buyers; therefore, 1t ought to be evident to any merchant or laborer that when the farmer pro- duces at loss, the buying power ot the country is crippled and nerchan- dising cannot be profitable. If the present price of cotton, for instance
 were the result of the free and un- hampered influences of supply and demand, no one would have reason to complain; but it is not, 1t is al, most entirely due to the propagands for lower prices and its consequent effect on those who control tho credit and finances of the country There is not more cotton nor less | demand than last year, but less money available for handling it ane an organized effort to force price:
