much food for thought, in connection
with the work that needs to be done in
this country in behalf Of Americaniza-
ton to be found in the census bureau

white population
By the last census there were 15,712.-
754 foreign born whites IN the country,

because OF the war conditions, but a
gain OF more than three million since
1900 and twice as many as there were in
1880. All but little over a million Of
the total now here are II or over and
Of the more than twelve mnlion there

LESS DEPENDENCE ON COAL.

While it doesn't appear that the
average household has been provided
with a substitute for coal there, are sew
eral conditions which point to a de-
crease in the amount OF coal consumed
In succeeding years
For the most part the railroad loco
motives require coal for fuel, but with
the identification of important lines and
the placing of gas-driven cars on
branches because they can be operated
for a little over eight and half cents
mile there bids fair to be a reduction
in the amount of coal required. Coal
in these instances gives way to electric
ity and gasoline. .
On the high seas coal has been extern
sively used for the driving of the steam
ships. Changes have been underway for
a number of years until today the de-
mand is for oil burning ships and 1t ;s
estimated that if all the vessels that use
oil were forced to make their steam with
coal as fuel there would be something
like 90 millions tons of coal required
for that purpose each year. The gross
tonnage of oil burning ships has grown
IN seven years from million and a
third to nearly 10 million.
Likewise many Industries which for
merly used coal for their boilers are
now burning oil and there IL greater at
tention than ever being given to the OBJ
tanning of power and light by means Of
Gong transmission lines from advantage
ously located hydro-electric plants. In
stead of letting the waterpower of the
country go to waste and using coal a
decided change is being brought about
This doesn't mean that the demand
for coal is going to fall fiat. There are
greater fuel demands each year as the
country develops ard while the increase
promises to be we'll taken care of by tht
use of oil it will not mean the Gripping
Of the coal industry. On the other
hand. even with this lessened dema n
for coal, it wifi set to figuring those
who have been maintaining for a con
siderable period that we couldn't expec
to go on forever depending upon the
natural oil supply.

THE INTERNATIONAL CANAL.

With the submission Of the report of

vorable 10 the joint construction of the
81. Lawrence waterway that will per-
NIT Ocean-going steamers to reach and
leave lake ports, me fight in regard to
this waterway in congress can be said
10 be opened. The commission has in
vestigsted the merits of the proposition.
Il is believed that il can be done by the
expenditure of $4,000. 600 and that as
he result great aid will be given to
transportation. 1t remains to be seen
whether this country desires to enter
Into such an undertaking and provide its
part OF the expense when there is no
certainty that the amount mentioned
will see the Job through. when it means
a waterway Of depth of only 25 feet and
when It will be available for only part
IF the year.
Strong advocacy has come in behalf
- the project from the group of states

not provided Cith adequate transporta-
ton at the present time and that they

does not mean that all persons whose

that there is an element of violence in

wills and sense OF justice. Again, It
should be understood that the reference

PROHIBITION IN MEXICO

The possibility Of prohibition in Mexico

He has been asked to what extent the

its campaign for at least a diminution in

the state Of Vera Cruz today addressed
an urgent letter to the president seeking
such information. and within the past

MR.. WILSON AND THE TREATY.

Ex-President Wilson is reported rs
being opposed to the Horsepower treaty.
That in Itself may not be surprising in
sisnuch as it differs from the treaty Of
Versailles Inasrnuch as he wasn't will
ing to see any other side to the treaty
hs brought from Europe than the one
he took, and by SO doing prevented rati-
fcation with changes, it Will not sur
prise that he doesn't approve what has
now been done.
Whether he VIII come out as an active
opponent of the ratification of the four
bower treaty and endeavor to prevent
ratification is anceher matter. There
have been intimatio7s that he would.
THAT. however, car best be told when he
takes action one way or the other, or
when he refrains from doing anything
one way or the other.
It cannot be forgotten that the senate
and the country were not willing to ac-
ceYt his unalterahle position upon the
Versailles treaty. When the country IN
November, 1920, by an unprecedented
political wave let it be understood that it
did not demand the treaty which he en-
deavored to force upon it. it cannot be
believed that the ex7oresident is going
to enter at this time into an effort to
block something which TO every indica-
ton the country does approve and
actually desires. It is realized of
course tina tex-President Wilson has the
right to his opinion and to such express
sion of it as he desires to make, but If
he was not able as president to per
suade the country that his view of the
matter was correct 1t doesn't seem prob
able that. he will undertake the task Of
endeavoring to have his view endorsed
now that he has been succeeded by an
other as chief executive.
