The democrats of Missouri did
not take Mr.. Wilson'S advise. Mr..
Wilson bitterly opposed the re- elec-
ton of Senator Reed, but major
ity of the democrats that voted in
the primary favored Senator Reed
and by their vote nominated him.
This should be splendid chance
for the republicans to elect Senator
from the great state of Missouri in
November.

GOOD FAITH.

Following the adjournment of the Genoa con-
ference trade agreement was concluded between
Italy and Soviet Russia. The treaty as framed con-
tained provision inserted at the instance OF the
Moscow negotiators whereby special concessions
for the exploitation of Russian oil and agricultural
lands were granted Italy. That clause was. stricken
out at the request of Senator Schanzer the Italian
negotator who pointed out that it would be v'o.
lation of the made at Genoa that none OF
the nations there should seek or receive
any special concessions from Russia pending the
forthcoming conference at Fhe Hague
We hear great deal about international trick
cry. A popular conception of the attitude of ma
tions toward each other is that they are constantly
on the alert to discover means whereby one may
overreach the other. by fair means or foul. There
u.s. it must be admitted, entirely too much OF this
sort of thing in international dealings. Men who
are scrupuously honorable in their private dealings
are too often willing to use questionable methods
when they represent their own nation in negotia-
tions with another.
We know that this is not always the case
Probably that attitude exists less often than many
of US suppose But it is pleasant to read of con-
crete case in which nation has stood calmly and
quietly by it's agreement, doing so as matter OF
course and without making any fuss over it.

A PREMIUM ON PAUPER1sM.

According to Canadian informant there is in
vogue in Canada method of dealing with unem-
p1oyment which tends to aggrevate the very condi
tons which it is intended to relieve The Herald is
not informed as to all the details of the plan but
described, the manner in which it works in specific
case is this:
Funds for the relief of the unemployed have
been set aside by federal, provincial and municipal
governments. For relief in given municipality the
federal government contributes up to certain
amount condition that the province and the city
each responds with like appropriation
The city authorities therefore able to OBJ
tain two dollars of federal and provincial money
upon the payment of one dollar of their own The
people Of the city naturally desire the circulation Of
money among them, Not only will the dollar which
they expend in this manner remain in their own
community, but its appropriation brings in two 9th
dollars from the outside, and both Of these out
side dollars will also remain in circulation in the
city. .t H.
There is thus placed before the municipal au-
thorites direct incentive to pad their unernploy
ment reports and it stated that cities this
is done very ndustriously The result is the direct
encouragement of pauperisrn. Many persons who
are able to work, and who could find work if they
were so disposed find it much more easy and pleas
ant to remain unemployed and draw unemployment
pensions from the public treasury.
Many plans of dealing with unemployment
have been described but of all of them this seems
least likely to result in any permanent benefit and
none appears certain to encourage dleness and
waste the money Of people who are thrifty enough
to have taxable property and money with which to
pay their taxes. tgs sf

STEEL DUTIES.

Among the subjects of discussion in congress is
that of duty OH steel. 1t is many years since
President Gary Of the Steel corporation, declared
that the steel industry in the United States in
no need of.protectve duties, it could meet sue
cessfuly any competition offered from the outside
If the steel industry in this country is actually
in need Of protection we may assume with reason
able certainty that every other industry needs it, for
no other our industries is organized completely
or on such gigantic scale. Not only have we the
Steel corporation ITSELF the greatest of all indus
trial combinations, but the independent companies
those outside of the trust, to be faring quite
WE'LL and they are on the point Of forming another
combination of their own MEMBERS the better to
handle their business, and, as some people assert,
to control prices by friendly agreement with their
great neighbor :,
1t seems strange that congress should under
take the protection of great industry whose high
est official declares that no protection is needed.

WHERE DOES WIRELESS sToP7

Less than one hundred years ago the telegraph
was unknown. Messages which were to 60 beyond
the few hundred feet within which the human voice
could carry them were written out and dispatched
by messenger. The telegraph provided a means
whereby instant communication could be establish
ed wherever wires were strung. The telephone pro-
vided means for the exact reproduction at great
distance of the human voice. Twenty years ago
men were experimenting in doubtful way with the
possibilities of wireless tefegraphy. Then came the
radio communication. has come to occupy con-
stantly widening field, and it is used for many
practical purposes. -
Radio operates by means of impulses which are
sent out in the form of waves, which may be COM
pared to the waves created by. dropping pebble
into water. They vary in length and frequency ac-
cording to the character of the actuatng impulse.
The messages which are carried on these waves may
be compared to the little ripples which are formed
on the surface of large wave, and which carried
forward with it,
The range of wireless instrument depends on
the power and character of the current which it gen
crates and the receiving set is also subject to like
limitations A powerful sending station can send
out impulses which are integible at distance Of
thousands Of miles, but these impulses pass by the
small receiving set which pick up only messages
originating few miles away.
The whole subject is complicated. and to the
lavman, it has its uncanny features. Radio is now
are constantly passing i'll all directions messages
to our senses. but which may be
caught and translated into intelligibe sounds by
means OF the proper equipment.
In this connection there arises the question:
Where and when does radio end?
The field of sending instrument is limited not
because its waves do not reach beyond its stated
limit but because outside Of that limit they arc not
strong enough to be detected by any instrument
now in We drop pebble into the water and
we see the resultant waves extending for great
distance. Farther out they are fainter and more
difficult to detect, and presently are unable to
see them at all. But. notwithstanding our inability
sec the water beyond that visible circle is set in
notion and the movement of every particle sets in
motion another particle farther on. We cannot say
that the limit is here there Perhaps there is no
limit.
Is there limit in time or space to wireless? Or
does impulse once sent out go and on, through
all space and forever? Will the ingenuity of man
some day devise instrument SO sensitive and so
accurate that it pick up these messages which
no instrument record, and which will be
able to interpret not merely the messages of this
moment, but those which were sent out yesterday
last year. and whose vibrations are still trembling
through the universe? History is written in the
rocks and trees, and in measure we are able to
read it. It is also being written in the winds and
waves. Shah we ever be able to read that record,
written as it is on the most intangible of mediums?

RAILROADS AND AGRICULTURE,

The report recently made by the joint commits
sion of the two houses of congress on agricultural
inquiry is one of the most complete ever prepared
by congressional commission. The senate men,
bers of the commission are Lenroot of Wisconsin,
Capper of Kansas McNary of Oregon, Robinson of
Arkansas and Harrison Of Mississippi. The house
members are Anderson of Minnesota chairman
Mills of New York, Funk of Illinois and Ten Eyck
of New York. Most of these have been con-
spicuous for their interest in agriculture hence it
may be understood that the work was performed
from the standpoint of promoting the interests of
agriculture in every possible way The report itself
is. yoluminous, but there will be special interest in
the statement made by Chairman Anderson with
reference to the commissions examination of the
transportation problem it affects agriculture
Among other things Mr.. Anderson says "The
railroads not self-sustaining, and are therefore
not on sound credit basis. If this condition con-
tlnues transportation service will be crippled and
the country will suffer accordingly 1t has been
found by the commission and we intend to report
that the revenue return to the railroads should be
sufficient to enable them to sustain the value of
their properties put to public and to obtain the
capital required for the expansion and Improvement
of property, facilities and service also that sound
railroad finance requires that larger part of the
credit necessary for railroad construction be secured
by stock issues instead of by bond issues.
Continuing, Mr.. Anderson SAYS
"The capital fund of the country loaned bv the
investors and the banks isthe surplus derived from
the enterprise thrift and sacrifices of all hardwork-
ing, prudent citizens and sconservatively managed
corporations and is species Of general reservoir
from which all forms of industry must draw
1T is important to the agricultural industry
which depends on that reservoir in the same way as
the railroad industry that the rate of interest Should
not be unduly raised to the railways because of re-
duced net earnings because of large issues Of tax
free securities. If the interest rate to the railways
rises the interest rate to the farmer will Aso in
crease, for the capital market is on a competitive
basis, and what affects the interest rate for one in
dustry affects the rate for all industries @
The Joint Commission has. therefore, conclud-
ed that the issue of taxfree securities and large
pendtures for non-productive purposes by the fed
eral state, and municipal governments be reduced to
the smallest possible limits, 50 that taxation can be
reduced and capital funds be allowed to increase for
the se at fair interest rates by agriculture industry
and the railroads and thereby help to promote pros
perity.
Another recommendation to Congress BY the
Joint Commission, regarding management, will be
that the railroads establish regional traffic execu-
yes, and organize public relations departments to
bring about closer contact and better understand
ing between themselves and the public
