United States Valuation
Would Correct Tariff Evils
Judge De VreS.


Americas markets being the best,
its prices the highest and its money
at par, this country has become the
goal of all regenerating trade" Judge
Marion De Vries, of the United States
Court of Customs Appeals, says in a
statement just issued in favor of the
new Fordney Tariff Bill.
National self preservation, in that
status, primarily demands, plenary
defense of our markets against being
made the dumping grounds of the
worlds products of cheap labor and
production, augmented by extreme
currency depreciation
"One needs to travel but little to be
taught the distress and dire needs of
our manufacturers, producers and
laborers by the vacant shops. the
smokeiess stacks, and hopeless faces
of our workmen, where before were
the hum of activity and the smile of
contentment.
"Why1 We turn to the morning
paper. Every day is printed there the
reason why We read in one column,
for example, that cut of 20 per cent
has been made in agricultural imple-
ments, in another that four and one
half million of our 1aborers are out Of
employment, while in another column
you read an official report to the De-
partment of Commerce that the great
Krupp plants of Germany, the pre-
war output of and workmen in which
contributed more to the world calam-
ity and human suffering than any
like institution in history, now em-
ployes 10000 men as against $1,000
men prior to the war; that they are
contented and reasonably paid; that
the daily output of agricultural and
varied products of that institution
is greater than in history,
JUpon every hand we find in our
Iand that to-day our goods are being
driven from our markets, our factor
les closed, our farms impoverished
and our laborers thrown into idleness
by the cheap productions Of foreign
countries which are hourly being
dumped into this country. Three
years ago the war closed. Almost
every great commercial nation of the
world save the United States has put
up the tariff barriers against this
deluge of cheap foreign goods. Octo-
Der LIST free trade England raised her
duties 50 1870 on six thousand
articles. Previously she provided spe-
cial duty against German goods Of
so per cent, and deprecated curren-
cy provision of rs per cent.
"The question now whether the
import duties levied by the United
States shall be calculated upon for
eign or American valuation basis is
perhaps the most important import
tariff issue seriously considered by
the Congress since 1888.
"The existing foreign valuation
system is without doubt the weakest

patent medicines are likewise ex-
empt from the sales tax. Carpets,
rugs, travelling bags, pocket books
and parlor lamps are on the free list.
Most important is the elimination of
transportation tax. This formerly
was per cent on freight charges, S
per cent on express shipments and 8
per cent on railroad and Pullman
tickets. These charges yielded in
revenue about $138, 900, 900. There
is no more tax on insurance of any
kind. Tax on theatre tickets is re-
tanned evidently on the theory that
people who could afford amusement
could pay the piper impersonated by
Uncle Sam. The new exemptions
are appreciated by many and are the
first long step taken back toward
normal peace conditions.

Georgetown Notes
Especial Correspondence

Georgetown, Idaho, Jan 17,-The
big rabbit hunt which has occupied
the attention of the people here for
the last two weeks came to a close
last Friday night. Some fourteen
hundred and fourteen pairs of ears
being turned in for the count. This
was an excellent showing, and at the
same time emphasized the necessity
for a hunt as the rabbits were GER
tainly becoming too plentiful Many
more were probably wounded, died
OF poison, etc, so the hunt was a
complete success, 1t ended in a big
dance and social at the Ward hall in
the evening, when large crowd as
sembled to dance and partake of the
delicious refreshments provided by
the Relief Society. Three prizes of
$3.50, $500 and, $500 were offered
for the First, Second and third high
est number Of ears, respectively. The
first and second prizes were divided
between Clifford Bartschi and Har-
vey Tippets with one hundred each.
and the third to Ray Smart with one
hundred thirty five. The South Sid
ers were victorious over the North
Siders by two hundred and fifty pairs
OF ears. About $500 in cash was
REALIZED from the dance and sale of
refreshments over expenses, which
was all turned over to the ward
maintenance fund. Much credit is
due the captains Mr.. John Siemore
of the South Side adm Mr.. Seymour
Hoff of the North side for the way
the entire hunt was conducted, then
the effort put forth to clean ana
decorate the house for the party.
Many of the towns-women are en-
titled to a deal of praise for their
assistance, both in serving the re,
freshments and cleaning Of the
house. All in all it was very ere.

to introduce foreign merchandise
into the commerce of the United

productions, no single oath by the
foreigner is required as to their value,
or is otherwise made necessary.
at Is absolutely impossible under
the existing law to gain accurate IN

every appraiser throughout the United

that he goes to his office to have
knowledge of the market value of

Piled with this information. He has

what he is required to know, to wit,
home market value in the country of
expectation.

ARGENTINA WARMING UP
TO RADIO TELEPHONY
(By Associated PressJ

Buenos Aires, Sept. 1S-There is
one class of trader in Buenos Aires
remaining unaffected by the general
business depression-the dealer in ra-
dio apparatus.
Wireless telephony has secured a
wonderful grip on the imagination
of the Argentine, and wherever one
travels in and around the city at least
two or three aerials are constantly
within view.
While enthusiasm is so great, how
ever, the arrangements for the broad
casting of programs are painfully in
adequate and the "istenerin" has to
content himself with amateur recitals
on heezy old monographs.
Transmission is, in most cases,
faulty also, and that, combined with
well-worn discs, while sufficient to
satisfy the amateur that his set is O.
K, makes radio-telephony in Argen-
tina more of a painful rite that a
pleasure.
However, there will come a day, no
doubt, when Argentina will organize
its radio concerts better, and when
that day does come, if the present is
any criterion, the sole topic of con-
versation in Buenos Aires will be
radio-telephony.

BROWNS HOPEFUL
OF T0DAY's CAME
tn LEAD Yankee
CBy Associated Pressl

st. Louis, Sept. iS-The 1922
championship on the American singed
in large measure upon the outcome
of the final contest of three game
series between the New York Yam
/ KEGS and the st. Louis Browns here
today.
: New York passed the slight lead of
half game over St. Louis. Each
nine has won one game, the Yankees
coping Saturday two to one when
both Shawkey out worked Shocker in
pitchers battle, and the Browns
winning yesterday 'Shucks' Pruett,
Southpaw school boy hurler, pitching
invincible against Waite Hoyt and
Sam Jones.
Should New York win today the
visitors would increase their lead to
a game and a half. That margin at
this stage of the season, with the
Browns having only nine games to
play and the Yankees ten, would go
far in determining the ultimate win
ner of the championship.
Should victory perch on the Browns
banner, they would have lead of al
half contest. This result, it is be-
lieved would mean that the Browns
have a good chance to beat the New
York team down the stretch as the
Yankees appear to be facing harder
schedule to the finish than the Browns
Bullet Joe Bush, leading pitcher
of the Major leagues, with record
of "a games won and six lost thisE
season was primed to hurl for theJ
Yankees. For the Browns the pitch
ing selection seems to lay betweenI
Davis, Wright or Kolp. There was
some speculation that Shocker would
try a come back with only one day'sI
rest.
Battling the hard hitting YanksI
Pruett increased to ten the number
of times he has famed Ruth in the
fifteen times Ruth has faced him this
season. The Bambino has hit safely
twice and walked in the other times
at bat against Pruett.
Approximately sixty thousand spec
tators have viewed the two games of
the "Little Worlds series" and wea-
ther permitting, the total attendance
for the series was expected to reach
nearly $4,000.
