An astounding
tire test
HE sensational trip of a Wills Saint
y Claire from New York to Mon
.treal and return, SO4 miles, in lo hours
and so minutes, on Wednesday, June
7th, developed supreme testimonial I
for the safety of Fisk Cord Tires.
The first ESQ miles to Elizabethtown,
NY, were driven on unfamiliar roads,
i'm drizzling rain, a hundred miles be-
fore daylight-where skid protection
was the first essential land its absence
tragedy.
From Elizabethtown to Plattsburg the
driving was in heavy fog and those
who know those tortuous Adirondack aas
turns, with narrow bridges head on to
sharp bend in the road, can realize q
what they are in fog-and how vital l.
it is that the tire must stop dead when
the brakes are applied.
No driver would ever put tires to such
test for skidding except i'm an emer-
gency such as compelled this trip.
This emergency proved again what
New Workers knOw-that Fisk Tires
give the greatest, surest skid protectioa
ever developed in tire.
There's Fisk Tire of exyu vdlase nevgtr

government is that to do so would only make Eu-
ropes situation worse. Most of the propaganda
beng disseminated to the epect that Europe is in
a desperate situation financially and can never get
on her feet unless her debts to us are cancelled,
is false and is put out for the purpose of miSlead-
ing the American public. That Europe's finances
are IN a bad way and that conditions in Europe are
very bad, is true. But that the situation is due to
the debts which Europe owes this country and that
II would be improved by the cancellation of these
debts is not true.
The critical conditions in Europe today are due
to the policies Of European nations.
They plead poverty, but it is notorious that they
are finding billions of dollars with which to engage
in war and prepare for future wars.
They plead inability to pay their honest debts to
the United States, but they are able to find hun
dreds OF millions of dollars to invest in other coun-
tries for the purpose of extending their foreign
trade.
They insist they are facing bankruptcy, but they
are not making any effort to reduce their govern
ment expenses and discharge a veritable army of
public employees. In some European countries
there is one person out of every FIVE on the public
payroll.
They are pleading inability to raise money to
meet interest due the United States on loans made
to them in the hour Of their extremity, but they
are finding hundreds of millions of dollars to pay
out in support of such s~ocialistic propositions as
pensions for unemployed, the very payment of
which encourages idleness and retards the return
of industrial production to a normal level.
1t has become perfectly apparent that Europe is
not going to curtail her ornaments, forego her
commercial rivalries and lulst for more territory,
increase production of her peaceful industries, cut
out governmental e4travagances, and make an hon.
est endeavor to practice economy so long as she
believes she will never have to pay up" Nothing
will bring Europe to her senses quicker and make
for world peace and the return to normal condi-
tons throughout the world than realization that
the United States government not only will refuse
to listen to any proposal to cancel European debts,
on the other hand will insist that these debts and
the interest on them be met.
Nothing encourages the spendthrift so much as
the belief that he can easily obtain more money
when that which he has is gone. Nothing so quick
ly brings him to his senses as the cutting off of his
allowance. Nothing will force him to honest toll
except the necessity of working in order to obtain
enough money o sustain him. Very often it re-
quires the pounding of the sheriff on the door to in
cite some folks to industry and economy. That is
the situation today in practically every European
country.
People who are seldom annoyed about time wHl
soon be reminded of HON many shopping days there
are until Christmas.

The refusal Of the Harding administration to
yield TO propaganda for cancellation, in whole or in
part, Of foreign debts to this country is in keeping
with the overwhelming sentiment in the United
States.
There are two outstanding unanswerable argu-
ments against the cancellation Of European debts
to the United States government. First, it is mis-
ONE TO speak of the cancellation of European
debts as "wiping them out 1t would not mean
that. II would mean the transference Of those
debts to the backs Of the American taxpayers.
Loans TO European nations were made out of
funds from sale of Liberty bonds in this country.
These bonds are the outstanding public indebted
ness of the United States government. They must
be paid when they mature. II the portion which
Europe obtained from proceeds of these bonds
ST. 900 900 ,000-is not paid by Europe then it
must be raised by federal taxes imposed upon
Americans.
In short, the cancellation of European debts
means adding ST. ,000,0 OO, 900 to the tax bill of the
United States. II is sheer folly to presume that
the American taxpayers will consent to any such
procedure.
The other outstanding argument against cancel
lation OF Europe's just debts TO the United States

Cash In" On Experiments

Without doubt the subject of road building is 60
ing to be the greatest single item of expense next
to schools which every community will have to con-
slider in coming years. Good roads are a present
day necessity.
Millions have now been spent in experimental
road construction in western states and the time
has come for the public to cash in on the results
obtained from various kinds Of road pavement test
ed under actual daily use over a period of years.
What the taxpayer wants is a road which will out
live the bond issue which provides for its construc-
tion and which can be built at a minimum first cost
and will require a minimum amount for mainten-
ance.
Before public contracts are awarded for large
amounts Of future hardsurfacing of highways, pub
lie officials should be required to check up on pub
lie highways in various states and see what types
of hardsurfacing are giving the maximum service
at a minimum of expense for first cost and main
tenance.
This is what a private corporation would do if it
was spending millions of its own money. This is
what public officials should be required to do when
spending millions Of the taxpayers money.

Mexican Petroleum Breaks.

Following a sensational rise for q
total of more than 20 points in little
more than a week, the plug was sud
denly pulled from Mexican Petroleum
yesterday afternoon. The price Clipped
away little by little and then finally
crashed for a total of some 20 points
to under 1S0. This compares with a
high mark on Monday of 204h. net
loss of more than 25 points. The sud
den heavy wave of selling brought all
sorts of rumors. one of which was that
the New York Stock Exchange had
found sufficient evidence of manipula-
ton looking toward a corner to warrant
the issuance of a warning to those in
terested in advancing the stock to let
up This report is not generally credited,
however, for it is believed that those
interests are too shrewd to allow them
selves to be put in such a position. They
know well enough how far they can ex-
pect to go before making real trouble
for themselves. 1t is likely that the
selling reflected desire to stay within
certain limits. In any event, there was
an absolute lack Of support when the
price of the stock began to fade away
yesterday afternoon. just as there was
lack of resistance when 1t was on its
riotous upward path.

Allies Chemical Dividend.

The declaration by the board of direc-
tors of the Allied Chemical and Dye
Corporation yesterday of only the regu-
lar dividend was a distinct disappoint-
ment to certain interests that have been
trading in the stock from time to time.
Not long ago it was asserted by these
interests that it had been decided to
declare larger dividend at yester days
meeting and commitments were made
accordingly by those who were inclined
to believe the story. Calm reflection,
however. indicated to a majority of
operators that the corporation would
hardly be likely to flaunt it's present
prosperity before the world at the same
time that the opponents in Congress
of the dye tariff were, talking about the
tremendous earnings Of domestic dye
makers. That the corporation is in
position to pay bigger dividends and
that in the not far distant future stock
holders will be rewarded for their pa
tience is practically certain, but the
declaration Of larger disbursements at
this time would be embarrassing to the
company as we'll as to the whole in
dustry.

Rail Heads Meet Tomorrow.

The threatened strike of railway shop
men and maintenance of way men APP
pears to have little influence in the
market for transportation stocks. Even
the most pessimistic view among rail-
road officers is that II walkouts occur
they will be local and scattering. not
national. The members of the Associa-
ton of Railway Executives will meet In
Chicago tomorrow to consider revisions
in the Uniform express contracts. The
labor situation Is not on the slate for
formal discussion. but many Authorities
incline to the view that the setting OF
June 20 as the date for the meeting is
more than a coincidence. Wage reduc-
tions go into effect on July /, and 1t Is
certain that the results OF the union
strike ballots will have been counted
day or two before that date. 1t Is pos
sible that the Railroad Labor Board
may embrace the simultaneous presence
of the rail executives and labor leaders
as an opportunity for an airing OF the
issues at stake. 1t is believed tnat the
only question on which the unions could
put UP strong fight with the support
of the Railroad Labor Board is that in
volving the legal right OF the carriers
to contract for maintenance with inde-
pendent concerns which can hire labor
at rates under those prescribed for rail-
way employees.

Tobacco stocks Hold Well.

Most of the tobacco stocks held reason
ably we'll yesterday in the face of the
late reaction. This was particularly
true of Retail Stores. whose consplida-
ton with Tobacco Products will be rati-
fled by the stockholders at meeting to
be held to-day in Richmond, Va. The new
Tobacco products issues on the Curb like
wise showed strength while the remainder
Of the market was declining. Officials of
the companies interested in the consoli-
dation elans declare there is no likeli-
hood of any hitch in these plans. Suf-
ficient stock already has been pledged
in favor of the merger to insure its sue
cess. they declare. and 1t is not expected
that any opposition of Importance will
develop at to-day's meeting. The spread
between the old stocks on the big board
and the new when-issued stocks on
the Curb during the last foI might or
more has been so wide rs to suggest
to the public that there was some ques-
tion of the consummation of the plans.
Shrewd operators, however, have taken
advantage Of this spread to net for
themselves some substantial arbitrage
profits on the assurance of insiders that
the deal would go through with no
important changes.

Cigarette Output Gains.

Estimates of the domestic produc-

at 4.600.000.000 cigarettes. an increase
OF IL per cent. over May, 1921. This
Is the first month this year which has
shown a gain over the production of a
corresponding month of, 1921. Produc-
tion in the first five months of 1922
totalled 1S.525. .2S0. $40 cigarettes, a
shrinkage Of only per cent. from the
same period last year. despite the fact
the decreases in March and February
were Is per cent. and "a per cent. re-
