The people of Heligoland have sent
a petition TO the League of Nations
asking for naturalization Of the island
under protection of the league or re-
annexation to Great Britain. They ex-
press high hope that the league will
relieve them of German control, which
natives of HelIgOland born under the
British flag declare to be highly Of

the terms Of the agreement under
which England coded the island 20

A committee OF g. residents of He'll
goland, comprising representatives Of
various organizations of the island,
visited Berlin, under the Craftsmanship
Of August Kuchlenz, and conferred
with the allied disarmament commit
tee, in an effort to correct what they
declare TO be the great error of the
allies in leaving Heligoland to Ger
many under the Versailles treaty.
Natives Encouraged.
Recently the natives Of Heligoland
were much encouraged by the report
Of Chief Engineer Savers of the Brit
iSh admiralty, who, after investigating
the destruction of the Notifications Of
Heligoland, now In progress, was al
legged TO have declared that the island,
even after being dismantled, should

upon which Germany expended 50,0O0,-
600 gold marks. The cost of destruc-

is estimated ar 100000 gold marks.
Germans working on the dismantle-
ment were sent from the mainland,
and the islanders say the German Off

The native Heligolanders, however.
hold the balance Of power, having

Fashion Us. Health.

TROM France comes word that
the directors of fashion have
q decreed that women shall re-
sumo corsets, which alter their
figures and do so much to injure
their health and the strength of the
race.
From Germany comes word that
the German government is pre-
pairing to compel the women of Ger
many to take physical culture in
the German gymnasiums, and that
the modern hygienic dress for women
had come to stay in Germany.
These two cables may seem to
deal with trifling matters, but they
are not trifling matters. France,
before the war, was facing the ter
rors of diminishing population in
a world which deifed power. Ger
many, before the war, was increas-
ing in population by leaps and
bounds. The war has not dethroned
Mars, but it has given him more
worshipers still.
If these two cable dispatches con-
vey the truth, they indicate the in
evitable reversal of the decision OBJ
tanned in the last war. Poor France
is as short-sighted as she is brave.

The Workers.
Good Friend

THOUSANDS of millions of dol,
lars are now tied up in tax
= exempt securities. This money
would be employed in industries
if it could earn a little more for
the owners than tax-exempt securi-
ties do.
Now tax-exempt securities do not
earn great profit. They will prob
ably average about 6 per cent profit.
If the billions tied up in them could
have earned 8 per cent in doing live
business and employing workers,
then the money would have been so
used.
Why couldn't this vast amount of
money be used as profitably in pro-
duction and trade as in hon-produc-
ing tax-exempt bondsf
Because the surtaxes and exces-
sively high gradations of large in
comes and the excess profits taxes
made it hard for capital used in
employing labor and producing use
full goods to earn anything at all.
The man with much money does
as we all do with our lesser capital
he puts his money where it will
earn most with the greatest safety.
And if he is going to be unreason-
ably taxed if he invests in industrial
enterprises, he will pull his money
out of such enterprises and put it
beyond taxation.
1t makes no difference whether
he ought to do so or not-that's
exactly what he will do.
And there you have the reason
why so many factories are not run
ming, why so many merchants are
cutting down working forces, why
so many, many are out of work.
If the Congress would abolish
these destructive taxes and replace
them with honest, constructive sales
taxes, most of the men and women
who are out of work now would be
at work again in little while.
The sales tax is not the rich
man s money saving device.
It is the poor mans work getting
and wage-earning device.

Almond Men
Need Tariff
.ALIFoRNIA almond growers

are in danger, their orchards
menaced by a sinister. and
greedy force that would destroy a
State industry with an investment
of $5O,O0O,00O. A blight, as de-
structive to the welfare Of the 100,-
600 acres of almond groves as would
be an insect pest, is facing the Cali
fornia almond nen.
The situation is this:
The Fordney Tariff bill, now be-
fore the United States Senate, sets
an impost of 4 cents pound on un-
shelled almonds and of IL cents a
pound on shelled almonds.
Under California farming condi-
tions such tariff does not protect
the almond crop of that State
against foreign-grown almonds,
which come chiefly from Spain into
the Eastern market. A tariff of 5
cents a pound on unshelled and Is
cents a pound on shelled almonds is
essential to save the California
growers. Anything less-that is,
the proposed Fordney tariff of 4
and IL cents--is below the margin
of protection for these orchardists.
The California Senators, johnson
and Shortridge, are prepared to put
up their strongest fight to give the
California growers the protection
which is essential. Combating them
is the rich lobby of Eastern specula-
tors and their allied interests who
are determined the California grow
ers shall be helpless before the i'm
portations from abroad. A great
fund is said to have been raised by
these spectators to defeat Cali
fornia's growers.
The proposed and essential duty
of S and 15 cents pound on al
monds does not mean that Cali
fornia almond growers will be able
to monopolize the American market.
Experience can dispute that claim.
But it means that California grow
ers, after having paid the high farm
wages current in that State and
the freight rates from California to
the Eastern markets, will be able
( to put their product on the Eastern
markets on a parity with the i'm
! ported nut.
z The tariffs of 5 and Is cents a
/ pound simply represent the. differ
ence in the standard of living be-
tween California and South Euro
pean farming communities.
The spectators lobby here in
Washington may be large and re
sourceful and rich, but it cannot
have the power behind it that Cali
fornia can WELD if it is united.
California industries, particularly
the farming groups, know they must
stand together against any invasion
of their property. They must unite
behind the almond growers in this
fight to save the orchards.
The California Senators must be
able to show this is not a fight of
one group of orchardists, but a
State movement to protect develop
ing industry, to maintain Ameri-
can living conditions in the orchards
and to give these California growers
a chance to improve their product,
to the end of making the almond
cheaper and more common for the
American consumer.
The tariff will not raise the price
of almonds in America. 1t will take
the market out of the hands of
spectators who consider only
manipulation that will bring then,
