Farmers this year are marketing
wheat at an absolutely unparalleled
rate" Mr.. Hoover's statement Said,
receipts at western primary termin-
ais showing over 130,000,000 bushels
during the first 80 days Of this harvest
year, as compared with 68,000,000 in
the same period last year out of a
larger crop.
''The proportion Of wheat reaching
primary terminals to the total amount
sold by farmers varies. Assuming
the maximum ratio ever known for
this period, the terminal figures indie
ate that at least 255, 100000 bushels
have already been sold. On an aver
age ratio, total sale of about $780,
100000 bushels is indicated. In 9th
er words after deducting seed, ETC., at
least 40 percent of the crop already
has passed out of the hands of the
farmer in 80 days.
"This is overmarketing, and has I'M
doubtedly depressed the price. There
is complaint from some sections that
the farmer is being forced to sell by
his creditors.
There can be no sound reason for
any such pressure in view of liberal
provisions for marketing credit, both
by federal reserve board and war fin
ance corporation

The Juvenile Court.

The Juvenile court is the branch of
the state government which exercises
the states authority in determining
that no child shall be denied proper
parental care or guardianship. There
is no fixed standard by which to judge
just what proper care is. The stand
ard advances as the conlmunity's in
terest and intelligence grows.
It will be seen that of necessity the
standard which the court uses as a
guide is a minimum standard. Below
that minimum standard the care given
to child must not fall We can not
as a community rest satisfied with
minimum standards.
If our American ideals of life are
to endure, it viii be through nurture
of these ideals in the youth. All con-
structive forces of the state and ma
ton must work together to this end,
beginning with the home-the founda-
tion of our society, and continuing
through the school, the church, the
playground and the varied activities
of the community which are aimed to
develop the youth. Miss Lathrop of
the federal children's bureau has well
expressed an ideal in the words i:
What the wisest and best parent
wants for his own child that must the
community want for all its children. "
Judge Arnold, Chi Juvenile Court.

in tariff duties over the imports from
the United States and other foreign
countries. Portuguese colonies give
imports from Portugal preference of
from 30 percent to 80 percent over i'm
ports from the United States. The
average preference given by Spanish
colonies to imports from Spain, over
imports from the United States, is
about SO percent. Italian colonies
give imports from Italy a preference
OF from 70 percent to SO 1-3 percent.
England Adopts Protection.
The British West Indies gives i'm
ports from England and British pos
sessions preference of from Is percent
to SO percent In the four great self
governing British dominions, the av-
erage preference given British goods
is approximately 33 1-3 percent. So
characteristic is this of British pos
sessions, that when the United King
dom, in 1919, abandoned her tradition
al free trade policy and imposed gen
eral tariff on imports, she reciprocated
the preference shown her by her vari-
Gus dominions by giving a preference
to imports from them of about 1-3
over imports from the United States
and other countries.
All of these preferential tariffs
throughout the world, operating
against the United States in it's effort
to increase it's foreign commerce, have
been in operation for number of
years. In some countries American
goods are Disseminated against not
only by means of tariff, but, as in
Canada for example, the postage rate
on American periodicals was raised in
1906 to four times what it had been
and at the same time the rate on
British periodicals was reduced to
one-fourth of the previous rate. This
was done with the open and avowed
purpose of reducing the American and
increasing the British advertising cir
culation in Canada, so that the Can
adian would become the purchaser Of
British goods, to the exclusion of Am
erican products.
Tariff Domestic Problem.
In striking contrast to the American
free trade advocate, who is dreadfully
afraid American protective policy will
offend some Highlander, is the state
ment made by British commission
which investigated the subject of pre-
ferential tariffs and made report to
the British parliament. In comment
ing upon the attitude of other nations
toward the British preferential tariff
on all articles produced anywhere in
the-British Empire, the report states
that the policy of the Empire upon
this matter shol11d NOT he regarded by
other nations in any other light than
a matter of domestic concern" to the
British government.

u. S. Not Only
Tariff Nation
OTHER NATIONS HAVE LONG
FRAMED TARIFFS AGAINST
UNITED STATES,

The United States Tariff Commits
sion has just issued a pamphlet of 70
pages, which is an Introduction to a
more voluminous report which the
commission is preparing upon the SUBJ
ject of tariff policies of various ma
lions in regard to their colonies.
This report is of special interest,
appearing at time when free trade
advocates and importers are raising a
hue and cry that the protective tariff
policy in the United States, such as
advocated by the Republican party,
will array the nations of the world
against this country in a trade war
by way to tariff retaliation.
Tariff War an Old Thing.
The sum and substance Of the re-
port issued by the United States
Tariff Commission is that instead of
the United States starting world
wide tariff war, other nations have
for years been discriminating against
American imports to their colonies.
The report shows that England is the
largest colonial power in the world,
with France second and, together,
British and French colonies comprise
1890 of the total colonial population
of the world. This is based upon pre-
war figures. The colonial possessions
of both Great Britain and France were
vastly increased by the treaty of Yer
sailles. The report shows that both
England and France are given trem-
endous tariff preferences by their col
onies and in addition, Great British
is given tariff preferences by her self
governing dominions, South Africa,
Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Taken as whole, French colonies
give imports from France q prefer
ence Of from so percent to 80 percent
