of Mr.. Arnold's report gives only one
side of the picture, the increase in

that the last quarter of a century has

whole of the Far Eastern trade. While
China has made rapid advances in the
last decade, she still is too far behind
to supply herself with all the manu-
featured goods for which market
can be made
These circumstances invite a de-
termined effort on the part of the
United States to develop the Far
Eastern market and, in all probability,
congress will suggest that either exist
ing machinery such as the Bureau of
Foreign and Domestic Commerce, or
some new agency, make a special
study of increasing trade between the
United States on the one hand and
Japan, China, the new states of the

Musings For The Evening

The following Thanksgiving greet

by the Bald-Headed Club of America,
an organization formed three or four
years ago and now with a f1ourishing
membership.
The greeting is lengthy document
and reads in part as follows:
Twenty years ago eggs were 10
cents a dozen, milk cents a quart,
the butcher gave away liver, the hired
girl got SO a week and did the wash
ing and ironing, women did not pow
der and paint in public, play put ad
take shimmy or talk fapper gibber-
ish; men then wore whiskers and
boots, chewed tobacco, cussed, had
their glass of beer, worked ten hours
a day and never went on strike; no
tips were given to walters, there was
no income tax and the hat check graft
was unknown.
Now everybody rides in automo-
biles or Fords, strains his neck looking
at airplanes, plays the piano with his
feet, goes to the movies to see lot
of sentimental slush, listens to grand
opera on a radio machine, discards his
sensible wooden underwear, smokes eli
garettes. drinks hair tonic, cologne and
embalming fluid, seldom goes to bed
the same day he gets up sets his chill
dren bad example, then blames them
for going wrong and thinks he is
