Decline of Australia
Pacific Isles Trade
Is Causing Alarm

SYDNEY, New South Wales, Sept.
27-(By the Associated Press)-The
decline in the value to Australia of
the Pacific island trade from an esti-
mated figure of 1000, 900 pounds an
nually several years ago to such an
insignificant amount" at present
that customs officials refuse to
bother" to estimate its worth, has
caused perturbation among business
men here.
During the war;, the re-eXport from
Sydney of copra brought from the
other islands was prohibited except
on special governmental permission.
The bulk of the trade ceased to come
here and was exported directly from
the plantation islands. A certain
amount continued to be received here
because of lack of other %transporta-
ton facilities. The "Harbor Trust"
then declared copra was inflammable
and must not remain on the wharves,
but must ge given special handling.
The British Board of Trade, the
New South Wales Navigation depart
ment, and the insurance companies
protested against this ruling, declar-
ing that "copra was no more inflam-
mable than any other products"
The ruling was enforced however
and storage in hulks or bonds neces-
stating immediate discharge on ar
rival, carriage and lighterage and ad.
ditional expenses add between SO
and 95 to the expenses of handling
the cargo, it has been estimated.
Much of the trade has gone to San
Francisco, as the result of this ruling
businessmen declared.

this service, and, much as the reven. ue is needed by the government, it is hardly fair that this tax of $l0 be imposed upon aliens in their own countries in addition to the head tax which they must pay upon admission to the country. without giving some thing in return. In the interest of humanity congress ought not to quabble al the slightly larger approp- riation necessary. if it is necessary, for a selected immigration will not require the same attention at the port of debarkation as the motely crowds now handled, for. knowing the heartaches now occasoned at our ports. the consciences of the Ameri. can public would be easier"
 WHO ARE BARRED
 IL is the duty of immigration au- thOrities to prevent the entry into this country. for the purpose of pro tecting American citizens and resi-. dents, of the following classes of per sons. when certified as such by of ficers of the public health service; Idiots. cmbeciles. feeble.minded per sons of constitutional psychopathic inferiority, persons mentally defective persons afflicted with tuberculosis. chronic alcoholism. contagious dis eases. either loathsome or contagious
 Most of the deases listed are prob ably little known to the average American. but they are as bad and 1s dangerous as their names indicate It is often asserted that most of the diseases and cpidcmics within the city of New York are dir. cctly traCeablc to Ellis Island The great pity. say immigration authOri- ties. is that, under the present meth od oi handling immigration, there is no assurance to the immigrant when Inc lo1ros his country th@t he will 'o permitted to land. or. if he is permitted, that part of his family win not be deported back to the country from whence they started.
 DISEASE IS NOT WELCOME
 Many instances of a pathetic nat urc are appealed to the secretary of labor daily A few days ago. as a specific illustration, there was talk en an appeal of the case of a child two years of age for whom a war rant for deportation had been issued returning his, in the custody of his mother, to Poland.

 LONDON, Sept 7.-The worli Is promised shortly ships that will not rock in the cradle of the deep and mariners a life on the rolling waves with all the roll out of 1t.
 A magical contrivance called the Sperry gyroscope has beaten the bill. lows. It enables ships to be stab ili2ed, no matter what the weather
 According to experts vessels can be maintained within two degress of the vertical under all conditions.
 Thus it seems as though the long sought cure for sea sickness that has so long eluded ships doctors will eventually be found in the engine room.
 Most of the shipping companies are considering gyroscopes, but the first liner to be fitted with this new wonder will be the American 1S.OOO- tonner Huron. formerly known as the Friedrich der Crosse.
 The value of stabilizcrs in war time is obvious. America is trying the Eyroscope equipment on one of her destroycrs. and the British Admir-, atty is about 10 follow suit
 The gyroscopic stabiIizor consists of tyo rotating wheels, or discs, thir- teen feet in diameter and weighing forty five tons each, which may be placed in the engine room region of a ship and take up comparatively small space.
 The effect of the equipment is to oppose the motion of each successive wave. SD that the ship is kept tray cling evenly.

Your Paint Dollar
How Big in 5 Years

THE best paint will be good \ five or more years hence, if properly applied. Cheap paint, on the average, starts cracking in twelve months.
 It's what paint coVers that you Want to save - not merely a few cents per gallon in first cost.
 Cheap paint does not spread as easily or as far as good paint. So when you figure labor and square yards covered, cheap paint on the house costs just as much as good paint.
 Cheap paint in practically every instance, is the most expensive you can buy.
 Don't allow surfaces to rot. It costs less to paint them.

The paints specified by Fuller are the result of 72 years experience in the making of all kinds of paints, varnishes, etc, for western use.
 We use the best materials, PURE PIO- NEER WHITE LEAD, pure linSeed oil, zinc and color as others do, but we com bine them with 72 years knowledge and long time skill.
 Our whitehead base is finely ground pure white. It must pass through silk screen with 10000 meshes to the square inch. We use special machines for mixing the materials in scientifically exact proportions.
 So Fuller colors are exceptionally clear toned and Fuller house paints are noted for covering capacity, ease of spread and great durability.

WOMAN'S LOVE DEMANDS ALL
Can Never Be Satisfied With Anything
Less Than Absolute Dominion
Over One Man.

What every woman wants more than
ANYTHING else In the world is absolute
dominion over one man. There Is a
peculiarly vampish trend in feminine
love which takes the form of demand
ing entire possession of the creature
upon whom the affections have been
fastened.
Every woman wants to feel that, no
matter what his occupatlon-be ii the
most engrossing business or merely
game of golf-she is ever the com
polling note at the back of her mans
head. He must not forget her for
single instant, and he must be regret
fully conscious that nothing is quite
satisfactory lacking the saving grace
OF her presence. And she requires
continually to be assured Of this. She
believes that in boarding her perpet-
nal recollection he holds taliSman
rendering him immune from the attrac-
tions or Establishments of all other
women.
II is difficult for the feminine men
taIity TO grasp the curious power OF
detachment Of the masculine. \ WON
an cannot comprehend, much less sym
pathize with. that trait by which a
man can diveSt himself completely OK
any thought of her while absorbed III
something else.
A mans mind-and this particular
~ refers to the man Of many serious
interests-iS like a number Of COM
partments. each sealed from the other
and dOcketed as to contents. While
he is in one. he shuts out everything
pertaining TO any other.
{. A woman has not this capability OF
detachment Whether she Is playing /
bridge or apparently Obsessed with
some knotty domestic detail, she is
always subconsciousIy aware Of the
one.
The retentive quality is the pre-
vailing characteristic of woman. 1t is
AZ once her greatest strength and her
greatest weakneSs-she cannot bear
10 let 90. If she sees the flame OF a
love on the wane she tries franticaily
10 restore il to its full force. A man
faced with the same contingency Is
apt TO be more resigned-or brutal
and makes haste to finish completely
the cooling affection.
A man likes to do a thing, have
done with it, and consign all memory

and be ready for something new
