These new spring coats that came today sur

The Hunting Seasons Opening.

Gunners think that they are in
hard luck because the dates of the
opening Of the season for several
kinds OF game fall on Sundays this
year. Some hunters have argued that
under the circumstances it should be
lawful to take game on the Saturday
preceding Sunday, but they have been
warned that the law will be strictly
enforced.
The calendar thus affects the season
for deer in the Adirondacks, for rab.
bits and the various members OF the
hare tribe in many counties. and for
black. gray and fox squirrels as well
as grouse and woodcock. Ii will be
wrench to those whose enthusiasm
has been keyed up TO the jumping off
Ioint to have TO wait over an extra
day, but IL will be worth while. Be
sides. there is nothing in the law to
prevent one from taking camera
and trying TO snapshot a lordly grouse
az he takes wing, or striving for a
picture Of that epicurean delight, the
woodcock as he is silhouetted at the
climax Of his fight topping the slders
OF some secluded spot in which he
has found the food which rounds his
hun waistcoat so prettily. And after
al, many who have killed their share
OF game with powder and shot find
as much sport with the camera as
the shotgun ever yielded.
The open season for grouse and
woodcock in this State is from Octo-
Der | to November Is, with the ex-
ception that grouse may not be shot
until November I on Long Island.

Ship Cargoes and Ship Costs.

A Shipping Board report states that
in respect of one item of business
efficiency American vessels are su-
perior to foreign vessels as a whole,
so far as concerns traffic handled
through American ports. This is in
the actual ton of cargo carried by
each deadweight ton of ship. In the
last fiscal year American vessels av-
craged 2.62 deadweight tons to each
cargo ton, as against 2.74 deadweight
tons for foreign vessels.
Perhaps this apparent advantage in
cargo capacity measured against ship
tonnage may not be all that it seems
TO be. Tank steamers, which are
largely American, might account for
some of the difference. Lake vessels
might account for some. But il it
be taken for granted not only that
the comparison is accurate as to all
foreign ships handling cargoes in our
ports but that it holds as to our
greatest shipping competitors the
fact remains that one item of supe-
rior efficiency cannot make success
full merchant marine when it is heav-
lily handicapped in the matter Of all
its costs Of construction, maintenance
and operation.
Bigger crews more highly paid than
those Of any other merchant marine
in the world, heavier expense in the
food the crews eat and the other sup
plies the ship requires, heavier costs
Of doing business all along the line
waterlog the great bulk of American
shipping. A ship that is expensively
operated cannot bid so low for car
goes as a ship that is cheaply oper-
ated. A ship that cannot successfully
bid for cargoes is worse than no ship
at all, because an idle ship in some
ways costs more to maintain, though
rot in fuel and labor, than a busy
ship costs.
The American shipping laws put
American vessels trying to compete
in the foreign trade to disadvantages
that heavily outweigh their cargo
carrying efficiency.

Europe found that he was real fac
tor in the Near East situation when
II submitted TO his consideration the
proposed treaty revisions.
KEMAL to-day is the head and front
of Turkey. 1T is immaterial whether
he rules at Angora or Stamboul.
His followers and his army are
not Nationalists but Kemalites. He
has a power over the Turks such
as ENvEE Pasha, who held the high
est bonors of the Ottoman Empire,
never had over the people. Per-
laps the reason is that they believe
in his sincerity. perhaps it is because
he had the ability to win their lead
ership. But KEMAL knows Europe
as did none of the Young Turks de-
spite their pretense to western cul-
ture: he knows Europe's strength
and weakness. He knows. too, the
opportuneness OF his present de-
mands. He is shrewder, craftier,
more aggressive type of the Otto
man than that with which Europe
in the past has had to deal. Beneath
his Western veneer he is still the un-
changing Turk.

More Cotton for the World.

II the indications OF the world hold
good there will be more cotton in this
cotton year than there was in the
last for man civilized and man un-
civilized. both needing and taking
cotton when and as they get it.
In the United States the planted
acreage is 10 per cent. larger than
last year, and the condition of the
crop is better. In Egypt the increase
is estimated at 13 per cent. and in
India for the area thus far planted
4 per cent, with satisfactory condi-
tions.
Indicated yields in those three
areas, producing So to 80 per cent. of
the world cotton supply, are ten and
a half million bales for the United
States, a million for Egypt and about
three and a third million for India.
There have been years when this
country alone produced more cotton
than the foregoing. Our crop in 1911
vas 15,s92,7O1 bales and in 1914
more than 100000. But nobody
wants to see another such cotton sit
ration as there was in 1914. with the
war coming TO cut of foreign cotton
markets and with so huge supply
as there was in this country.
Cotton Is not king when il is too
cheap

The Treasury Income Shortage.

Mr.. GILBERT. Under Secretary of
the Treasury. says and says truly
that additional taxes at this time,
even to meet the Governments ex-
pected deficit, now estimated by him
at S672, 100000, would be nothing less
than a national calamity.
And yet after taxation there are
only three ways in which so stupen-
dous a shortage OF income can be
taken care Of by the Government.
One is to cut expenditures; but when
the Governments bills are so largely
made up Of charges that cannot be
cut, like interest on the war debt,
caring for manned and sick soldiers
and maintaining the army and navy,
the economy knife could go to the
very bone elsewhere without finding
anything like 1872 ,000, 900 to cut out.
The second way is to borrow, and
this in itself calls for taxation both
to pay interest on the new debt and
to set up sinking fund reserves for
the ultimate extinguishment Of the
debt.
The other way is TO receive more
revenues through general revival
OF business, with corporations ana
individuals correspondence paying
more into the Treasury, not because
of new and more taxes but because of
new and more profits and incomes
paying their share under the existing
laws. Industry. and business tend to
sink, not rise, under increasing taxes.
Industry and business, therefore,
tend to pay less into the Treasury
under unreasonable taxes than un-
der reasonable taxes.
With gap of S672.000,000 between
outgo and income the Government is
in bad position-bad for itself, bad
for the country, bad for everybody.
But il the Government can avoid
more taxation at such a time and
under such circumstances it may be
taking the shortest cut TO a resump-
tion Of permanently adequate reve-
nues to pay it's bills, through a re-
sumption of the normal business ac-
tivities upon which depend the
Treasury receipts.

PEPPER WARNS AGAINST

Senator Says CollectiUe Judg-

PHLADSLrHrA. Sept. 25.--Collective
judgment is the best solvent of Industrial
problems said Senator George Wharton
Pepper to-day at a luncheon given BY
the industrial relations committee of the
Philadelphia Chamber Of Commerce.
Let US not make frantic appeals to
Government and force to work the
miracles which we do not deserve" the
Senator said. Lot US put no trust in
industrial coercion. Let us make no
appeal to the court beyond the barest
limits OF protection 10 life and property.
and let us never make an appeal, even
in these cases. a covert method OF i'm
posing upon the courts an impossible
jurisdiction over all industrial happ-
ness and welfare.
Let us set up sufficient Governmental
organization to give US official fore
casters who will scan the skies and
sense the air currents. Let them be
empowered TO invoke executive action
for the inlpaneling OF emergency juries.
Let these juries find the facts, enlighten
the public and recommend the solutions,
and let us be honest enough to realize
that no power on earth can force tho
acceptance OF these solutions except the
concentrated opinion of you and all your

Ex-Ambassador Bakhmeteff Returning
Finds in Tour of Russia That Peasant Is in Control of
Local Government

PARIS, Sept. 25 (Associated Press -
Poris A. Bakhmeteff. lately Russian
Ambassador at Washington is sailing
Wednesday for America. after an eX-
tended trip of inquiry and observation.
which led him TO the belief that the
present Bolshevist Government of Russia
Is being slowly displaced from beneath
by the growth of self-governing peasant
communities.
The peasant popula tions of the old
communities and 'volosti' of Russia"
said M. Bakhmeteff. have succeeded in
establishing self dependent governments.
using the local Soviets but Transforming
then. into what approaches local Zem-
stovs. These peasant groupings have
populations of from 5000 10 $4,000, with
the local administration in the central
village composed usually of the we'll to
do. mature and more capable peasants.
The strength and efficacy OF their gov
ernment vary from place to place. Some
times the Government is in the hands of
local patriarch.
These local rudimentary governments
have sprung up by hundreds all over
Russia. They are an evolution from
below. They are not what one could
call revolutionary opposition to Mos
COW. but they are really independent OF
Moscow. The Communist Commissaries
leave. The same things have happened
to the younger ruffian elements that
went about vobbing and terrorizing.
Many OF these undesirables have been
killed.
The central authorities are prscti-
cally powerless TO combat this growth.
Collectors sent out by the Soviets to take
the taxes in kind often do not return,
Something happens to them. They
simply disappear. 1t is impossible to
send troops against these formations.
Lenine has long since realized this new
and unconquerable foe of Communism
the peasant.
"All the so-called new policy has
cen an attempt TO win the peasant.
II has not worked. The peasant die
trusts the Bolshevist official and will
not cooperate. The peasant has grinly
entrenched himself, leaving the central
Power TO shrink and die.
THE situation in certain respects may
be compared to the French revolution
at the time of the fall of Robespierre.
Robespierrc was overthrown by the
moro moderate elements in the conven-
tion who saw no future for France in
Robesperre's sterile IDEAS and terrorism.
Something Of the same sort may start
the next phase Of events in Moscow"
NJ. Bakhmeteff concluded by saying
