DUTIES on MATTINGs.

IMPORTERS OF Chinese and Japanese mattlngs advance
the singular argument that 1--WE do not feel that the
domestic manufacturers have any greater need for pro-
lection now than they had in 1919" in opposing proec-
tive rates on this class OF goods or course this is
ridiculous statement
The prime reason for protective rates given by the Re
publican party has always been Of the disparity
Of wage scales at home and abroad and in no case this
disparity so pronounced the Of Oriental labor
The Underwood law passed in 1918 and still in force
made deep cuts in the duties on mattings During the
calendar year 1920 imported 100000 square yards Of
these goods practically every yard OF which came from
China and Japan.
Wages in those two countries have not advanced ap-
precaby since 1913 while wages in the United States in
all lines OF Industry way above what they were in
1913 hence the wage disparity between this country and
the Orient is much greater than II was before the war
The House provides in the pending tariff bill duty OF
nine cents square yard mating and seven cents per
square foot on mats made OF cocoa fibre or rattan
Common China, Japan and Indian straw mating is
made duabe at three cents per square yard all other
floor coverings not specially provided for PC per centum
ad yalOrem
There no indication that these rates are excessive in
view OF the great Increase in the domestic wage scale and
the exceedingly small increase in the Oriental wage scales

A SHIP The REST SALESMAN.

UN the discussion OF the merchant marine problem we
once impressively reminded that the prop
erty OF the nation whole depends upon the prosperity
Of each OF its component parts.
The merchant marine problem is not one OF interest
solely to those sections Of the United States bordering
The ocean.
As extent and permaneucy OF our foreign trade is
Of vital interest every productive section Of the ooun-
try so also is our shipping on which, to large
extent our foreign trade depends
The grain growers Of the vast region distant from
either ocean the cotton growers Of the South the manu-
facurers Of interior cities all look for market for their
surplus products in foreign lands
II we have in this country home market for only 20
per cent Of our products % per cent the small
margin Of surplus determines to large extent the price
that may be received for the whole.
Even small surplus serves depress the market and
enable the buyer TO name the price
The ability TO nnd outside market for the surplus
and TO establish that market in such way as to make IL
dependable from year to year the chief assurance to
the producer that he will be able to secure profitable
price for his product
Experience has shown discerning Deawareans that IN
many ways nations merchant marine contributes to the
development OF its foreign trade
Naturally an Of the officers and most OF the seamen
employed on a nations merchant ships Of the same
nationality as the nas which 1t carries.
These men travelling in foreign countries are them
selves agents for the creation Of an interest in the prod
ucis they carry their vessels.
ship owners seeking business for their vessels do
their part in creating favorable opinion for the prod
ucts Of the country under whose 0ag they operate
But even more important than these influences in favor
OF the development OF foreign trade through the nstru-
mentality Of the merchant marine is the opportunity
that is Afforded to exporters to ind new and permanent
markets provided they have Of dependable and
regular service for the shipment and delivery Of their
goods.
All these factors and others contribute to make large
merchant fleet very effective aid in building up sub
stantial export trade.
This being true every individual and every section pro-
ducng commodities which seek foreign market should
be directly interested forwarding the movement now
in progress the drafting and enactment Of feasible
plan by which may have assurance that there will be
established and permanently maintained regular and
adequate transportation service between all the

What Is the Good viii of
China Worth to Japan?
BY GEORGE f. INGERsoLL

Statesmen are discussing China
and the possibility, II left free. that
China can give the world a new
civilization to carry on the arts and
sciences after Europe has perished
in a sea of blood. We believe that
Europe will not perish in a sea of
blood, but we agree that China has
been witness to enough experiments
in civilization to be able 10 profit by
them and remold a rich and produce
tive country into a civilized nation
more interesting even than the
China Of forty centuries. What is
more important. the Chinese believe
this.
China has studied the govern
ments OF Europe and North and
South America through the eyes OF
her most representative men, China
has observed every move OF Japan in
( sixty years to adapt and adopt West
ern civilization China has also
watched with the eye Of an anxious
neighbor the great Russian expert
ment in Russia and Siberia. Numer-
GUS other experiments in govern
ment, in education, in the science Of
/ the range OF China's vision. IN
| doubtedly China Is preparing to
/ profit by these experiments and her
/ conclusions in regard to them.
! Meanwhile, China ruminates con-
/ cerning her own history of relations
with foreign nations The record
since 1912 is notoriously dlscredit-
able. Every other statesman admits
that. TIE record OF nearly every
other foreign nation is not what IT
should be. The war of 1910 was
fought to enforce the right OF a
Christian power to sell opium to the
protestants of non-Christian gov
ernment. This opium war ended
with the Treaty OF Nanking, which
ceded Hong Kong to Great Britain.
France, Russia. Germany and Japan

Formosa, Korea, and other penin-
sulas here and there.
What complicates conditions in
China today is Japan's success in

railroads from Russia and Germany,
and refusing to give them back 10

he did not realize the Japanese have

sible moment is manana, or tomor-

Nor was that all. Japan sent
China a list Of twenty-one demands
at the moment when the Allies
were on the defensive. Japan shook
a mailed fist at China and hit her a
body blow with these demands and
a subsequent treaty. She also in
cluded a demand that China extend
the old lease Of Port Arthur and

Railway ninety-nine years. With no

more than any nation in the world
