BRITISH SUBSIDY WITH
AMERICAN MONEY

WASHINGTON. July 5.-"While
British publicists are agitating for a
cancellation of war debts and the
British Government is asking delay
in payment Of interest OF her debt
to America shifting of war burd-
ems to the United States-Great Brit
ain Is bending every effort to the de-
velopment and maintenance for for
eign trade and extension OF her for
eign markets." declares the Repub-
lican Publicity Association, through
its President, Hon. Jonathan Bourne
Jr. From the day of the signing Of
the armistice that nation has sought
every opportunity to regain all her
foreign customers. particularly where
American exporters had secured
some of the trade Britain had lost.
The desire and the effort to thus re-
store former trade conditions ani
win new markets. is not in itself to
be censured. but American taxpayers
will scarcely look with complaisance
upon delay in the payment Of inter-
est upon the British debt to us at the
same time that Britains is expanding
huge sums of money to seize trade
this country was enjoying.
IAN impressive illustration Of the
methods used by Great Britain in
promoting her commercial interests
Is seen in the subsidizing Of the Brit
ish coal industry. The normal pro-
duction Of coal in the United King
dom is about 270,000.000 tons Of
which about 70.000,00O is exported
to European and South American
countries. The United States pro-
duces little more than half q bill
lion tons annually and exports less
than $4,000, 900. tons to trans
oceanic nations. Great Britain has
been maintaining government con-
troll Of the industry under q guaran-
tee against loss, with the result that
prior to the strife mines were mar
keting coal at less than cost Of pro-
duction and, according to reports
from Europe. the British treasury
was called upon to pay some ten mil
lion pounds sterling to make the
guarantees good during the month of
March. This was a subsidy Of $40,-
100000 in one month In IN effort
to enable British coal to regain or
retain its markets in Europe. The
period OF control has expired. the
strike has just been settled and Brit
ish officials have agreed to a resump-
ton Of the subsidy.
1t is estimated tnat, al most,
American coal would come into sue
cessful competition with British coal
to the extent of only 100000 tons
in a year. or about one-seventh OF the
quantity great Britain exports.
mo exception can be taken to any
effort Great Britain may make to de-
velop her industries and her COM
merce provided she does 1t with her
own money and her own ingenuity.
But in these days American taxpay-
ers are going down into their pock-
cts for money to pay the interest OF
Liberty bonds, some five billion dol
lars OF which were issued to raise
money to loan to Great Britain and
the debtor Is not paying the inter-
est. In other words, the money that
is due the United States as interest
is being withheld and used to sub
sidize a coal industry In order that
the United States may not esta blish
closer commercial relations with
some of the European nations.
This is only n instance Of the
, 1921-07-07

British policy but 1t Is one that will
not tend in the least to strengthen
the plea Of the internationalists for
the cancellation Of war debts. or the
proposal for an extension Of time for
interest payments"

WORLD COMMERCE DECLINES

States in the eight months ending with
August. 1921. were Sl,693.OOO. 900. while
they amounted to s3.995. .OOO,0OO in the
same months Of 1920.
Lower valuations have had an import.
ant part in this decline Of international
trade. when the prices al which princi.
pal articles we're imported and exported
in 1920 are compared with those of the
same period of 1921. The quantity Of
raw cotton exported in the frs, eight
months of 1921, for example. was about
the same as that exported in the frs,
eight months of 1920, but the value of
the 1921 exports was $274,OOOOOO as
compared with se2O.OOOOOO for 1920.
This made the average export price IA
cents per pound during the eight months
of 1921. and al tents in corresponding
months Of 1920.
In comparison of the average i'm.
port price Of coffee in July. 1921. with
that of July, 1920, it is found that there
was an average import price this wear
Of II cents per pound. and 20 cents per

July. 1921. averaged, according to the
official figures Of the Department of
Commerce. 3.2 cents = pound agains,

examples Of the decline Of our imports.

Motion picture stars are considered

play or comedy, according to iheater
managers.
No particular type Of play is cri.

house, explains a manager Of a local
theater.
Many good photoplays which We book
do not draw large crowds simply be.
cause they are not introduced by some
famous actor or actress. For the the

movies by star.featured plays and not by
