Is Mere Noise to VIM

me people who have made h most
noise in Disgusting tariff Legislation
are those who are OF the least tmpor~
tancs to the nation In many In
stances they are PEI - who are. to q
great exf.nt-a d ment to its eco
homie cevuaopme Z They are the In
tc-nntional bankers who are simply
lton<akers from the productive enter
prices Of the country. or who are In
teresIsd In foreign productive enter
prise because they bought. during
the late war, very freely OF foreign
stocks and bonds at great discounts
and now desire to bring them back TO
par by building up foreign industry
At the expense OF domestic industry.
The nolsiest OF all have been the
merchants Of the country In this
category We do not refer TO b retail
or. all over the United States who are
Necessary for the distribution Of pro
ducts and who have contented them
selves with reasonable profits and are
not merely s~oeculators- Nor do we
mean the proprietors OF h great dc
lpartment stores alone. but we mean
the importers, who are simply whole
sale dealers in foreign goods
We also refer TO those exporters who
sprang up during the war. like Jonah's
sourd sprang up during the night
These exporters are not producers. but
simply spectators They do not man
ufacturo and they have no idea OF the
needs of foreign countries. no idea OF
values. no fitness. no preparation for
the export business. They are gam
blers. and mighty poor mi at that
Fortunately. the grecter portion Of
them have gone to the wall. leaving
IT to established manufacturers TO deal
directly with their foreign customers.
Let us contrast the Importance TO
the nation Of the manufacture. or
other producer. and the merchant
The miner brings up the metal or min
cral from the depths OF the earth and
makes Il available for human use. He
is thus n producer OF national wealth.
The farmer plants his seed and raises
crop many times greater than the
seed which he planted He has In
creased the national wealth The man
ufacturer takes h nw material and
works Il over into tho finished pro-
duct suitable for the use OF mankind.
He has increased the value OF the
raw material. Tho cotton in the field.
the wool on the sleeps back. the iron
in the ground are worthless to mar
until they have undergone some pro
cess OF manufacture.
Now wtas dees the merchant do7
Does 10 increase the value OF the
manufactured products which he seils7
Not at all. Tho intrinsic value Of the
goods remains tho same after Il has
come from the hands OF tho manufac-
turer. Yet overy merchant who has
handled the goods-the 'seIling agent"
the wholesaler. the jobber and the re-
taller. whoever a handled the goods
add not one iota to its intrinsic value
but each and every n has added to
its price. Price and value arc not IN
Interchangeable terms. They do not
mean tho same thing. Only too often
they have nothing in common. You
may go into one store and purchase
an article for q certain price and pass
down h street and lind another ar-
ticle exactly similar in every particu-
lar. yet the price may be twice whit
you paid for the mt you bought The
value of he two articles was exactly
the same. but the prices varied great.

More Brain---Less Bull

Editor Tribune;-m reading your
page for Tuesday several amusing
things showed up. One little headline:
Talking Pure Moonshine," seems TO
be the keynote to the whole layout but
could It have been Just half cooked
home brew7
Somehow. tho labor policy of your
paper Is interesting in view or tho
fAct that half your circulation is
among wage-workers. Once there was
a song, Don't Bite h Hand That
Feeds YOU" but that's OF date. I
say as long as working people have
no more brains than to hand over their
nickels for publications, that are con
tnuslly fighting against every mere
of organized labor then they deservc
to have their hands bitten. their pants
seats Kicked and to be stomped on
generally. In China they use the boy
colt very effectively in such cases.
Tho projected strike OF the mine and
ran workers you designate '.simply
conspiracy and say. "the rishts Of
the public arc being complately ig-
nored-" Wei Tor tho love OF the suf-
fering jumping Mike. who is the pub
lie anyhow? And In the next column.
allow a writer to say half the.
people we meet in daily contact are
each a part Of what we call labcr-''
Then nearly half tho other half are
people who arc dependent-like the
Tribune itself-on labor patronage
for their financial existence, so It is
to see that 10 pei cent OF the
public" wants the railsmine strike to
win
After two columns largely filled with
reflections on the organized labor
movement. its leaders and friends you
grow conciliatory and blandly ask in
a headline What Does Labor want?'

USING BApT1sMAL NAMES,

"Tho headline writers have added one more BIT of
nforma1ity to the cheerful and casual habits of Amer.
lea" observes the Chicago Post "They now speak of
all women in the news, by their first names. Miss
Garden is always Mary To a similar honor they
have now promoted poor little 'Mathilde.' As for
Fiji and "Madefynne' and sMabei-why, we've al
most forgotten that they have last names at all. Speak
TO the writers of the lines and their instant ~justifica-
ton is that a first name, even if it be Madelynne, is
shorter than the last name, 'obenchain,' with Miss or
Mrs IN front Of it. The answers would satisfy most
Americans completely. The step is utilitarian, there
fore it is all right What more do you want? What
worries us is that there are so many feminine Chris
tian names running through the lines that we fear our
brain will become SO confused that we shall miss ut
terly the point Of something or other that the ladies
are doing. r
