American Optical Glass.

ElOR YEARS before the world war GERMANY en-
ioyed a monopoly of the manufacture of optical
glass, none or practically none was made in this
country. 1t is an entirely new industry. When the
United States entered the war, the problem of sup
pying optical glass for war purposes was most
serious In March, 1917, the naval consulting
matter was placed in the hands of the bureau of
standards in Washington. Between 1914 and 1917
TWO experimental companies were making a small
quantity for the Canadian government.
The total American production was about 1000
pounds per month. The requirements of the army
and navy were about 1000 pounds per day. Finally
the Carnegie Institute of Washington was an
pealed TO for assistance; and thereafter the re-
glass. Three plants were established with gov.
eminent funds at first, and under government
contracts. Production was increased to 5000
pounds per month. American production nroved
a success but costly.
throughout the war period and for a year
after, the new American industry thrived fairly
we'll; but "a 1920 and 1921, European manufactur.
ers, especially German, began to find a market for
their increased capacities, and sent optical glass
to this country in large quantities, and at prices
with which American manufacturers could not
compete. American optical glass Is as good as any
IN the world, but costs more to produce. In 1921
German wages in optical glass Factories averaged
50 to Sc a week; in the United States the same labor
received so 10 $40 per week.
The Underwood tariff admitted all optical glass
free of duty. The Fordney-M tariff i'm.
poses a duty of 40 per cent. 1t was a question
whether the new American industry should be
saved and the American employees kent at WORK
or whether the American. factories should close
down and the American wage-earners thrown out
of employment.
We doubt if any thinking American will claim
that the closing down of an industry like this will
best serve the interests of the United States. The
tariff has saved this industry. kept the emnIoyes
at work and relieved the country of dependence
upon any foreign country for the highly useful
and necessary article of optical glass.

dissolution of the coalition government NJ
Britain was practically a repetition Of what
took place in our own country over three years
ago. There was no formal Indignation Of po-
litical parties in the United States, but the Repub-
lican minority in congress subordinated their diff.
ferences with the Democrats and united with them
toward the common object of winning the war.
Controversies over domestic issues were suspended
while all true Americans united in fighting a for
eign foe. The effort TO return to sound govern.

The Republicans were well aware that appro-
for big ocean fleets were being bungled and that
IN a score of WAYS the military efforts Of the ma
ton were being mismanaged. Ye they complied
with every request of the Democratic administra.
tlon for more funds, and soldiers, and munitions.
The legislative branch of the government was
practically a coalition of effort for a common
purpose, although the executive failed TO catch the
spirit 9f congress and declined 10 seek advice from
the Republican ranks. Instead of manifcstinR an
probation Of the hearty support he had received
from Republicans, President Wilson made a par.
tisan plea for the eelction of Democrats after he
had earnestly urged that politics be adjourned.
The moment fighting came to an end domestic
policies reasserted themselves. Joint party govern
ment, which is the same as no party government,
Is never a healthful condition in times Of peace.
1t is well for minorities to adjourn their .iiffer.
Zoe. but the return to normally and solution of
domestic problems can go forward best when
there is vigorous discussion between two opposing
schools of thought.
The British have Just recognized a fact Amer.

There has been much comment

contrasted with our own. frequently

we have been told, how rapidly and
how democraticary the English go
about the business compared with our
slow and upsetting presidential cleo
ton. In England a prime minister

week and the next his successor takes

and OF a new government. ALL within n

the two systems somewhat painful for
Americans TO contemplated The speed
and flexibility Of the English political
machine is set over against our dfl-
atory and rigid procedure.
There arc. however, some offset
ting considerations. In England a par
lament may remain in power for five
years without giving the people a
chance to pronounce a verdict upon
It. 1t has been asserted OF the parlia-
ment chosen in 1918 thai II quickly
ceased to represent the real opinion
~ the people OF England. II soon
went stale. The coalition government
depended upon its fine brute majority
in the house OF to do what
ever it wished. and was apparent y
able 70 maintain itself without con.
sulting popular opinion. The Amer
lean congress. on the other hand. can
never go more than two years without
learning what the people think OF IL
through a popular vote. There are
balancing advantages in the Amer
lean system which must no. be over

Another matter has TO do with the
stability Of the executive. Under the
English principle Of parliamentary gov
eminent the executive may disappear
overnight. Then time must pass. and
often n period Of uncertainty must
be gone through. before another ex-
ecutive is firmly in office. This sure

has worked out in practice. to make
the authority of the executive some

Steady Improvement.

DEPORTS to the interstate commerce commission
IL show that for the first time since November,
1920, there are no surplus freight cars. The de-
mand for freight transportation facilities exceeds
the capacity of the railroads.
The postoffice department reports for the
month of September an increase of lis per cent in
postal receipts in fifty selected cities as compared
with September, 1921. These cities average 81 per
cent of the total postal receipts of the country
and are selected because they are typical cities
which taken together reflect accurately conditions
in industrial, agricultural and business commu-
mites.
The Department of Labor has just completed
its analysis for the month of September. This
analysis is based on information gathered from
shows that there is increased employment in all
but four industrial groups. These four groups
are: Liquor and beverages, clay and glass, metal
and metal products other than iron and steel, and
vehicles for land transportation.
The report shows that employment has in
creased in all parts of the country. In New Eng
land, the Middle Atlantic and the Middle Western
states there is a greater demand for industrial
workers than there is a supply. In building trades
there is a shortage in the labor supply. In fact.
according 10 this report, there is a threatened labor
shortage In all parts Of the country due to the fact
that more men are employed, for longer hours per
week, than at any time since the war.
a report made by the Labor Statistical bureau
for August covering ~forty-two different industries
and 2,300 Eeparate plants shows that in thirty of
the forty-three industries there have been in.
tythree of the industries there was an increase in
the total payrolls.
These conditions are a very striking contrast
TO those of March, 1921, when 100000 men ordi
narily employed were out of work and had been
for many months. 1t is also in striking contrast

Failures and Defaults.

ANOTHER index TO the business condition of the
q country is the decrease of business failures for
the third quarter of the year, the smallest of any
quarter since January. The figures are 5000 with
liabilities of SIG, 790,031.
This is a more favorable showing, both in mum.
her of defaults and amount of indebtedness than
was made in the second quarter when insolvencies
numbered 1857 and involved $155, 703,9T3. Numer-
ically the reduction in the third quarters failures
from those of the second quarter is about II per
cent, and the contraction in the liabilities is ~
per cent. While the c%ountry's business mortality
measured by number of defaults still exceeds that
of last year, the indebtedness during the third
quarter was less than the aggregate reported for
the corresponding period of 1921. Thus, the mum.
Der of insolvencies in the third quarter of last yea
was ATT or 555 fewer failures than occurred in
the three months just recently ended, but the liza
bilities in thee third quarter of 1921 were sl22.
699.399, or practically $6,000,000 more than the
amount recorded this year. For nine months of
1922, with figures for the third quarter partly es.
timated, failures have numbered 1s,411 and sup
piled a little more than $500, 100000 of liabilities.
while statistics for a similar period of last wear
show 1887 defaults for about $433, 100000.

The Points That Detcrmine-

uUHAT are the points upon which you judge a
w man in the ordinary daily contact with the
animal-stranger, acquaintance or old friend Ibe
old friend, of course, you are already familiar with
him. sized him up and accepted him and are ready
at all times TO make allowance for his shortconi-
ings, because of other qualities which he possesses
The acquaintance. You have met him before.
You have studied him some. You like him, don't
like him, or are neutral and n"on-committal with
reference to him..
The stranger? He is a different chap altogether.
When he enters your office, his carriage and de
portment ihave your Immediate attention. HIS
manner of introducing himself or his business,
or acknowledging an introduction by a third party
registers your next impression for good or pad
His hand shake is another important item that
goes TO make up the total. His speech, his voice,
the language he employs-au contribute 70 the
final impression unconsciously forming. HIS APP
probation of the valuable time he is occupying
and his consideration for the privilege granted him
are never overlooked by the party of tbe first part
who is we'll aware that there are only twenty-four
hours in the whole day, and only about a third OF
them devoted TO business.
These are the simple items that either make for
a friendship or n future bowling acquaintance. And
no person can afford TO neglect or overlook a cult
walton of these few fine points.
Who cares about having a stranger SLOUGH into
your office, hand you a limp hand, give you a pump
handle shake, and a lot oil, fresh chatter in n loud
voice and wind up by telling you q vile story when
he has come upon business that concerns him more
than yourself? Nobody.
There are a hundred "don'ts" when calling upon
a busy man on a busy day. 1t is a time to remcm-
Der the things YOU have learned in life and apply
them. Not the least of these is consideration. Re
verse the situation and act accordingly.
No business man but will receive you politely,
listen to you and give you the yes" or mo" That
having been accomplished, depart and come again
by appointment if it is desirable to both parties.
Always remember that the other fellow has
business as we'll as yourself and it is just as i'm
portant.
Social affairs do not occur until after business
hours.

And Whu Not2

~ British exchequer, has declared that his first
duty will be to settle the debt to the United States.
1t is a very heavy debt, he says, but we are respon.
sible for it and are going to pay it to the last
penny.
The only question that can arise in the pay
ment of this debt is-why should it not be paid?
Britain got the money really from the Amer
lean people. 1t was a perfectly straight trans
action. She needed the money, had urgent use for
it There was. no haggling about interest or when
or how the principal would be returned.
Our confidence in the borrower was shown at
every step in the transaction. Our confidence
is still mistaken.
Why so much talk by everybody on the other
side about the matter. Britain is solvent and
honest Has the money and can get more if she
debt and cease harping about it? In this country
