'oThe United States is the only prin- cipa1 country in the world which is not protecting its own people, All others have enacted import tariffs to protect their own goods against for eign competition.
 Any student of the situation should realize that the ineyitabFN re- suit of inadequate tariff is in idle ness for the American people. Amer jeans, particularly the worl1ing en, who vote against the enactment of adequate import tariff probably do not realize that by so doing they are voting themselves out of jobs and are hurting themselves and their families I have the greatest faith in the good judgment ou our New England peo- pie and feel confident, because I have talked with many of them, that they want the jobs of 0ur people ade- quately protected against the pauper labor of Europe.
 "It is my observation that the or gan1zed effort against the enactment Of an adequate tariff is in the main conducted by those people and organ iZations who are making great profits on imported merchandise and who are anxious to maintain the present con- dEtions, which are so favorable to them. as long as possible. They talk about foreign competition keeping prices down in America. The only thing it can possibly accomplish is to keep Americans cut of york;

Long Skirts
 Will Never
 Come Back

New York, July 29-Miss Nell Ser ger, buyer for Topeka, Kans., de- partment store, who recently gained public attention by listing the price of necessary clothing for an Ameri- can working girl at $S7.50 year, ad- rnitted that she would have to revise her figures upward.
 . The Ka.els Industrial court was trying to find out how much it cost a girl in the Middle West to dress. The big mistake is made when the job Of listing a girls clothing was turned over to men, while the task of selling down the prices was turned over to Miss Berger. The men, in their ig- norance, listed such things as cor sets, petticoats, corset covers and woo1en stockings when everyone knows that no girl ever wears those things any more. Miss BaIEer. who is here for her firm, said so herself She also said that even the humblest Working girls pay more than Z5 cents a pair for stockings.
 Another bit of interesting informa- ton from Miss Berger was that men will never allow the long skirt to come back. Evidently they are sat- isfied with what they are seeing. Miss Berger also believes that New York girls are clothes crazy-

 Private documents show that the defendants used the secret service code of the British government and that their expenses were paid by M Bakhmetieff, former Russian ambas- Sador to the United States and Alex ander kerensky, former socialist pre- mier of Russia.

JUNEAU FORCED TO GIVE UP
 SCHEME OF BIG CONVENTION

Seattle traffic experts are unable to figure out a scheme to take 20,- GOO Elks to Alaska for the 1893 grand convention on account Of lack of available steamships. A Junead committee, comprising Chas. Gold stein, John W. Troy and Joe Meher- in, waited on Seattle transportation interests during the week, soliciting cooperation in an effort to get the 1923 convention.
 Seattle transportation experts de- clared there was not sufficient ocean tonnage available tu carry the dele gates and excursionists to Alaska, without withdrawing Southern Cal ifornia tourist steamers during the peak of the summer season, which move could not be done without tremendous loss.
 The Juneau committee believed if vessels could be secured that ac- commodations for the convention could be provided at Juneau, but those attending would have to eat and sleep aboard the excursion steamers. The committee also be- lieved Juneau could secure the 1923 grand convention if they could guar antee steamship accommodations at reasonable rates.-Alaska Dispatch.
