Nations Taking Part

FEAR OF TARIFF

! WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-When
the great powers Of the world gather
round the conference table here in
November to discuss reduction OF
armament and measures to eliminate
discord in the Far East, two all
powerful weapons will be in the
hands of the American ''big four" to
lend driving forces to American
argument
One Of these is the $1,000, 100000
debt which the participating nations
owe the United States. The other is
the contemplated American tariff
wall. which, If necessary, can be
erected so high it will keep away
from American shores the products
of nearly every country in the world.
Every nation participating IN the con-
ference with the exception of Japan. Is
heavily indebtedly to the United States
for money obtained during the war.
Thus, If some of the nations object to
limitation or reduction of armament the
L
rum. suggest shat If the objectors have
sufficient national resources to keep on
arming they certainly have enough re
sources to take up long overdue obliga-
tions.
GREAT BRITAIN's
HUGE DEBT.
Great Britain, with the greatest navy
In the world, owes the United States ap
proximately $4,000, 100000. France, with
the greatest standing army in the world
owes the United States approximately
So, ,000, 600 900. Italy, with an army and
navy of respectable proportions. owes the
United States approximately $4,000, 900, 600.
With the exception of Great Britain,
who has paid a little on none Of the
debts have the interest payments been
met and the amounts owed steadily are
increasing.
STATUS OF
JAPAN.
Japan alone is not indebted to the
United States, but industrial Japan and
particularly the silk magnates, contem-
plate with dread the enactment of Z tariff
program that would tend to restrict the
trade with this country. The United
States is Japans greatest customer.

tend to relinquish either of these power

WASTE NOT ENDED

WASHINGTON, Sept. ia new
Congressional investigation of the
United States Shipping Board. of the
Administration of A. D. Lasker and
the new board, will be undertaken by
the House Appropriations Committee
when it settles down during October
and November to consider appropria-
tions fol the fiscal year beginning
July l, 1922, it was learned today.
ExTRAvAGANCE AND
WASTE CHARGED.
Disturbing reports have reached mem
bers Of Congress that waste and extrava-
gance have not been checked by the new
board, that Ehere continues to exist lack
of decision and misnansgement in the
operation Of the shipping board ships,
and that no attempt Is being made to
foster and encourage Independent Ameri-
can steamship lines.
It is stated the shipping board has at
work a force Of some forty expert ac-
countants setting up a new system OF
accounting, drawing an average OF 500
a day with no contract for completion OK
the work II is charged this force will
be employed for sixty days, the total
cost being run up TO $4,000.
MANY CHARGES
AGAINST BOARD.
Other charges made against the new
board are:
That under the plan OF reorganization
the shipping board forces have boen made
top heavy with high priced officials,
shipping districts have been Tegrouped
with a director, a newly created officer
at high price salary being over two OF
more district heads.
That divided responsibility among q
large number Of operating officials at
Washington and in the shipping dis
tricts has resulted in costly delays and
confusion in making alterations OF ships
bad routing Of ships. loss Of return cargo,
and disappointment to passengers.
That American operators have been
encouraged or left free to use ships OF
foreign 6ags when shipping board ships
were available for ALLEGATION.
That a large number Of high class
American lawyers, not nee csssarily versod
In maritime law. have been engaged and
left free to fix their own fees to handle
shipping board litigation when the board

Bv WALTER ID. HICKMAN.


The weekly pay check often regulates
the amount of happiness in the homo.
That is one of the important observa-
tions made by Judge W. W. Thornton
of Superior Court, Room /, in handling
divorce cases
The jurist is of the opinion that one
of the biggest factors in the divorce
situation is the failure of the husband
to keep the wife in the manner she feels
that she should be supported.
EXAMPLE OF GIRL
WHO EARNED SALARY.
This is noticeable in many cases of d.
vorce among young people, the records
of this court show.
Here is an example," said Judge
Thornton. Here is a young woman who
has been stenographer. She has been
able to make good money, and by living
at home. where she had no board or room
rent to pay, she was able to clothe her
self in fine style. and at times expen-
sively Then she met a young man who
worked on salary, the majority of which
went for clothing A wedding resulted
and she gave up her position. She dis
covered that the money which she spent
for clothing was missing and her hus-
bands slender earnings would not stand
the straIn~ef expensive dressing.
THE realization Of that started minor

The old game Of pass the buck" is
being played In city court and in the

rons, the burden Of the enforcement OF

1t has long been an open secret that
the courts orders were being openly dis
obeyed by professional bondsmen, but
no effort has been made by Judge
Pritchard recently to halt these viola
tions. The new order issued by Judge
Pritchard today follows:
want 10 call your attention
again TO the need Of watchfulness in
seeing to II that the courts orders
regarding bonds, are obeyed. One Of
these is that no person shall be ac-
cepted as surety on the bond of any
DEFENDANT awaiting trial or hearing

PENDANTS awaiting trial in other
courts, and II the total Of these bonds.
together with the bond he is seeking

OF his real estate, then he must be
rejected as surety. Unless the list
OF bonds is required to be given by
the surety in the affidavit, the court
Is powerless TO enforce the order be-
cause the surety has committed no

All garbage was not kept in tightly
covered receptacles, as DR.. Morgan said
he would insist and William Jones,
member Of the State board OF agricul-l
ture said the contracts Of concession-
naires provided Garbage, enough of IL
to afford the myriads Of flies food for q
high carnival, still Uttered the grounds
in uncovered boxes, barrels, baskets and
can as late at Monday afternoon.
SWIFT KNOWS
NOTHING OF PLANS.
Before the fair opened Mr. Morgan said
he intended to see the State board and
ask it to take steps to see that the gar
bage was properly handled this year Forl
several years it has been the custom fori
the city garbage collection department.
to carry the refuse away from the fatr-l
ground. When asked some time ago III
the board Of sanitary commissioners
would render such service this year. the
chairman, Lucius B. Swift said he knew
nothing about it. So far as an ypubHe
announcement IS concerned Mr.. Swift
still knows nothing about it."
Mr. Jones announced the week pre-
ceding the fair that the contracts of
standholders provide they should keep
their garbage in tightly covered recep- I
tacles, that the city was responsible for
moving the refuse away from the ground {
and that upon complaint Of city officials
that the regulations were not being com-i
piled with, the contract of any stand
holder would be cancelled.
HEAPS OF REFUSE

How far the city sanitary authorities
came from enforcing the regulations is
shown by the heaps of refuse left on
the ground when the fair closed The

GAIN IN EXPORTS

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-Rapid
recovery of leading staple commodity
lines, together with increase in the
values of many products, was taken
today by responsible Government Of
fcials as a clear indication of a trend
toward a substantial business re-
vival.
Reports to the Federal Reserve
Board, the Treasury Department, the
Commerce Department and other
Governmental agencies in close touch
with industrial conditions gave un-
mistakable signs of sudden improve
ment in many directions.
FEATURES OF
EXPECTED REVIVAL.
Among the salient features in this Cx-
pectede revival as pointed out by Gov
ernment officials were:
l. The rise in the price OF cotton,
the real start away from depression,
is 10 be sustained by the fact that
this years crop is short and the ad
ditional seasonal deterioration from
boil weevil and drouth last month
may reduce the Governments last es-
innate.
.. A pronounced jump in the de-
maud for American exports, bringing
the export figures up on a par with
those Of last spring. This means
much larger volume Of shipment than
was reported then, because since
spring prices have declined steadily.
g. Europe is shipping heavier sup
plies Of her exportable surplus to
American markets. 1t means a fur
ther cutting down of EurOpe's un-
founded indebtedness 10 America as
payments can be made only in goods.

and rush their rehabilitation and pre-
pare them for the heavy traffic de-
mands Of the coming winter and
