feature, the journal also contains each
week a large number of general ar
ticles of phases and developments of
international trade. The magazine in a
little more than a year of existence has
built UP a paid circulation of $4,000.
Service to Newspapers
The bureau also distributes foreign
trade information through the news
papers. Each week the official edi-
tors compile a readable resume of the
cable reports from the commercial at
taches, trade commissioners and Amer
lean consuls. This is sent to about
700 newspapers, many OF which fea-,
ture it for a half page and even a full
a Through this channel trade in
formation goes before more than
1000. 900 readers. The bureau also
conducts worldwide surveys of trade
conditions affecting American farm
crops and sends weekly patches of
news from these surveys to. farm
Journals with a combined circulation
of 100000.
The representatives of foreign gov
ernnents in Washington take a lively
interest in the weekly Commerce Re
ports. Every Monday, the publication
day, a special messenger employed by
the British embassy waits at the de-
partment of commerce to get six cop
les Of the Journal as soon as it is is
sued. and the other embassies are not
far behind. But our foreign competi-
tors are welcome to the information
they can get from this source. Moth
ing but general information is pub
lished by the bureau. The particular
information, the actual news Of con-
tracts to be let. buyings in the mar
ket, etc, is conveyed confidentally to
the exporters in this country who can
take advantage of it.
Herein lies the value of the new
commodity divisions which the bureau
has established, directed as these are
by men chosen by the various indus
tries themselves and who are SO ia
miliar with their several fields that
they know the names and ever the
telephone number of the manufactur-
ers. The amount of trade information
now sent confidentially to exporters in
this country is 81 times what it was
before the bureaus reorganization.
With this service at work the Amer
lean public is gradually being educated
out Of the idea that foreign trade is
something that concerns only the dis
trict along the Atlantic seaboard.

Government to Hold
Express Rate Probe
in Helena, March IL

Helena. Dec. 2O.-fBy The Asso-
,clated Press.l-One of a countrywide
series of Interstate Commerce com
mission hearings on express rates will
be held on March IL, either in Helena
or Butte. though probably in the state
capital, according to the state railroad
commission.
The hearings will be on the appli-
cation of the express companies for A
further increase in rates. Montana is
one Of five states in the union which
has never allowed the latest advance
in express rates on shipments within
the state. although the advance APP
piled to all interstate express ship
ments. according ia, the commission.
Data on which to base Montana's
fight against a further increase is
being gathered from the commercial
clubs and other organizations of the
state by the commission.

while the republican majority Is
"a. The opponents of the bill deny
even the slender majority OF two.
and it seems to be a conceded fact
among outside observers that sew
eral senatorial votes are in doubt
at this time if the came to
a vote. There is no question at all
that the next senate would turn the
bill down if it went over.
Of course every days delay in
getting the bill before the senate
increases the chances for its de-
feat. 1t also increases the chances
for the defeat of the farm relief
legislation if the ship subsidy bill
is put in front of it. 1T will take a
long time t 0 pass the ship subsidy
bill if it passes at all, and 1t is
probable that a filibuster will be
attempted at the last end to defeat
the measure. However, the case
of the farm relief bill is very diff
ferent from that of the ship sub
sidy bill. If the latter fails at this
session it is dead and buried for a
long time to come. IF farm relief
fails at this session it is certain to
pass when the new congress con-
venes, either in special session aft
er March 4 or at the regular ses-
sion next December. The new
congress is even more favorable to
farm relief legislation than is the
present congress. The public will
watch with interest the jockeying
for precedence between the two
bills. The ship subsidy bill at
present holds the right of way. II
it holds it then it is not sure of
uccess If it fails to hold the
right of way it is an omen of its
final defeat. Id ~

THE I'M


THE esteemed Daily Leader calls
our attention to what a dem
ocratic newspaper, the Helena In
dependent, has to say about the
Daugherty impeachment case and
the failure of Congressman Keller
Of Minnesota to appear before the
Investigating committee and make
good his charges. With much OF
what the Helena Independent has
to say about the case we find ur-
selves in agreement. But we
would call the attention OF The
Leader to the fact that this is a
strictly republican party scrap.
Mr.. Keller is a prominent republi-
can congressman making serious
charges against a prominent repub-
1ican cabinet officer and a former
campaign manager for. President
Harding. That he should refuse to
anpear before a committee with a
republican majority to testify on
the ground that the committee is
unfair and had made arrangements
70 whitewash the attorney general,
does not strike us as good sports
manship. Mr.. Keller knew in adj
vance the make up of this COM
mittee. He acts like a mar who
realizes that he has a bad case and
IS irving to kick up a dust to hide
the fact.
But lust why the republican or
ran in this city should expect The
Tribune to come to the defense OF
the republican attorney general
and plunge into the washtub wher
the republican party is washing out
fts dirty linen we don't know. This
Is a republican row exclusively.
The general reputation OF Attor-
uey General Daugherty is not OF a
sort that would induce this news
paper TO take up cudgels in his de-
tense without ample evidence that
ke was being ~peijecated BY his

FRANCE AND GERMAN
INDUSTRY

lust before the meeting of the
British and French premiers IN
London the Manchester Guardian
published a secret document which
purported to be a report from M.
Poincare's confidential agent, a M.
Dariac, pointing out how the oe-
cupation of the Ruhr would put un-
der the control of the occupying
force all the great industries OF
Germany which could be ruined at
will by a customs barrier on the
Rhine separating the great indus
tries of Germany from their raw
material. While there is no proof
that the French premier had con
cluded. to adopt the advice given
him by his special agent and advis-
er, yet its publication at a critical
time and the attitude of the French
premier at the conference made a
very bad impression in London.
The Springfield Republican re-
prints the report from the Man
chester Guardian. 1t is too long to
reproduce in these columns, but
the following comment from the
Massachusetts paper gives an idea
of its contents:
Through control of the key
points in the Ruhr, Dariac points
out, France will be able at any
time utterly to disorganize' the
whole industry of the Ruhr: We
shall thus constitute a constant
menace for the 10 or IL masters OF
German industry who are in real
ity financially the masters Of Ger
many And by control of a Gus
toms barrier along the Rhine
France would be able to cut Off a
great German manufacturing dis
trict from its raw materials and
thus to hold firm control OF Ger
many's industrial production. Inc
Rhineland is to be held permanent
ly under the military guard OF
France and Belgium Clemenceau
denies that annexations are con-
templated, but perpetual military
rule by France and Belgium is no
better than annexation.
"'If the Dariac report, observed
the Manchester Guardian in print
ing it, : comnends itself to the
French government, it means that
we must abandon hope for the fu-
ture peace of Europe This view
has generally prevailed in Eng
land, and explains the deep pessirn-
ism caused by P%oincare's stand. He
could hardly have shown more
plainly that the Dariac report does
commend itself to the French gov
eminent"

man from Minnesota. The reputa-
ton of Mr.. Daugherty, prior to his
selection by President Harding to
be the head of the department of
justice in the United States, was
that Of a slick politician, the kind
that manipulates conventions and
handles campaign Doodle. In fact
that ~ how he made his reputation.
His nomination for the office OF
attorney general of. the United
States was not received with any
great enthusiasm by the indepen-
dent press Of the United States.
They generally accepted it as be-
ing due to the presidents desire to
reward him for his share in getting
Mr.. Harding nominated and elect
ed, rather than to any inherent fit
ness on his part as administrator OF
the department of justice in this
republic.
Since his appointment to office
there have been many charges
against him of improper conduct.
Some of these were in circulation
before he took office. It was
charged that he deceived President
Taft in order to get a pardon tor a
notorious swindler from whom he
received a large fee. That was
one Of the charges made by Con-
gresham Keller who wanted MI.
Taft, now chief justice, summoned
to testify in the case. Now we
don't know whether these charges
made by the republican congress-
man from Minnesota against the
republican attorney general are
true or false. The fact that he re-
fuses to go before the committee
and make them good by giving his
proofs, certainly puts the congress
man in a bad light. But we can
not see why that fact should make
this newspaper take sides with the
attorney general or rush into this
republican mess at all. Doubtless
the committee investigating these
charges will have something to
say about it after hearing all the
evidence. Congressman Keller
says he knows what they will say
in advance. That does not excuse
his refusal to give the committee
any evidence he has of the truth OF
his charges, That is about all this
paper cares to say about the case
at this stage of the evidence. We
hope our esteemed contemporary
will be satisfied with it. We also
hope that its admiration for the
nonpartisan spirit of our other es-
teemed contemporary, the Helena
Independent, will continue and
grow, even if our own lack of viz
tue suffers by comparison in the
eyes of The Leader. 1t is a beau
tiful spirit on the part of The
Leader. May it grow in grace and
appreciation of the fairness of the
Helena Independent. We have
some admiration and appreciation
for it's fearless independence our
selves, a good deal of the time.

And stars may take its place at night,
Forever it is there.

There's not moment of it's time
Forgotten midst the frost
The sun is there, we neer forget
It's beauty, warmth and glow
In summer shadows temper, yet
1t warns the winters snow.

Whose heart beats true to friends,
Who never let's self-nterest drown
His patriotic trends
Will, like the sun, still shine behind

And work to win the goal,
And like the sun by which we see
