STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-The stock market today rose almost steadily in it searly and intermediate stages to Higher levels on the largest and most varied dealings of the year, but fell back sharply in the final hour. The reaction followed an advance in cali money from 51a to 6 per cent.
 Gain sranging from large fractions to 11a points were made at the out set Advances were extended to as much as points before profit taking and the money furry made pro- nounced impressions.
 A large part of the increased busl- hess evidently originated from profes- sional sources and orders received by commission houses over the holiday. These were augmented by short coy erings, especially in steels, equip ments and oils.
 Many of those issues achieved high est prices of the year, United States Steel being the most conspicuous example but that stock forfeited its gain of IS points, closing unchanged. Chandler motor, at net rise of 2h points, and Canadian Pacific at net gain of 3H points, were among the few prominent stocks 10 resist pres sure. Sales amohnted to 1,O75,OOO shares.

Geography of Cabinet Governments

Geography of Cabinet Governments
 Geography necessarily deals with kings and presidents and eniperor5, who change the face of political maps andinfiuence economic conditions; noa so frequently does it reckon with cabinets which are a growing factor in world af- fairs.
 Before the World war broke up the autocracies of Europe, France was the only republic on the continent employing the British form of cabinet government. Now the list includes, besides France ; Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Po- land, Germany, Czechoslovakia and Aus tria,' states a bulletin from the Wash ington, D. C., headquarters of the Ma tional headquarters of the National Ge- ographie Society.
 Our Cabinet Different ....
 Recent agitation to permit members of the United States cabinet to be present on the floor of the senate and house and to take part in debate on matters con cerning their departments serves to bring out the differences, between the the privileges and duties of the cabinet members of various countries.
 ''To begin with, the cabinet of the the United States is a cabinet in name only, for the government of the United States is in no sense a cabinet as are the government of Great Britain and France, and those of a large number cf other leading countries of the wcrld. There is not even formal sanction for the existence of our cabinet as an advisory council to the president The members have an undoubted legal status as heads of the various administrative depart ments, but the president need never call them together. President Washington held no cabinet meetings at first and President Wilson did not call his depart ment heads together for a period of many l months. When the president does re ceive the advice of his cabinet he is un- der no obligation to follow it
 Britain 'sNIother of Cabinet" "GreatBritain is mother of cabinets as well as the mother of parliaments. l Her cabinet is not of a fixed size, ana 1 while most members are heads of depart ments, there may be members 'withou ] portfolio who have no special duties.

IN THE PUBLIC EYE

George " P, Hunt, who is seeking the democratic nomination for governor; of Arizona, has already had experience in the gubernatorial office, since he was the first governor of Arizona after its admission to statehood. MT. Hunt is a native of Missouri who, in his youth, found his way to the territory of Ariz- ona, and for a time roamed its plains as a ranch owner and cattle raiser Then he turned to store-keeping, became we'll to-do, organized and managed large trading company at Globe, and in the course of time wse sent to,theterritori legislature, aiding in shaping the first State Constitution. and became the first governor under the new form of gov ernment. He revealed, as governor, many synas1thies with the people that are often hidden by executives in high political office, and stood for human itarian conception of statecrafs, pen ology, and industrial management. Near the close of the Wilson administration Mir. Hunt was appointed minister to Siam. from which post he only recent ly retired.

The rate of re-marriage, says the ministry, was at one time as high as 2,O00 per month, but lateN it has siackened, and it now stands at under 1000 per months. Widows on marry ing again are granted a gratuity equal to one years pension under the 1918 warrant.

F., Financial Secretary to the War Office, yesterday announced that short time in Government workshops would be abolished and that all men would be employed on full time. The amount of work on hand in providing for the ordinary requirements of the defence forces warrants the War Office in com ing to this decision. Hitherto it has been customary for nearly all elasses of worlmen in these estabE shmenss to work five weeks out of six. There were however, few men who were only em. ployed on alternate weeks, or sometimes even less frequently. - London Chross- iafa

goes against the cabinet it's members must resign. so as to permit new cab met, usually of the opposing political party, to be formed.
 The cabinet, under the British system. Is really committee of the house Of commons which the party in power per mits to manage all executive affairs, and to shape and lead all legislative action. The cabinet in action Is the real govern ment; while it's functions the prime min ister is the real ruler, and parliament is his instrument.
 Chile Has Real Cabinet
 But there are checks and balances. The House of Commons can force the resignation of the Cabinet, and the Cabinet can force the dissolution of the House The matter is thus put squarely up to the people, who elect another House, from the majority par ty of which new. cabinet is chosen.
 Practically all of the older part of the Western World is under cabinet government. This includes all of Eu- rope. except Russia and Switzerland South Africa and the French portions of North Africa. Canada brings d large part of Nofth America into cabinet column.

MR. roRD.s METHOD.

Henry Ford has puofessed to be a ETsat friend of the working man and be has gained great admiration for some pf the thingF be has done. He likewise riaims to be strongly opposed to pro fitecring in which stand he is to be rommended. But 1t Is a strange way ln which he undertakes to reconcile the Two in the announcement he makes to he effect that his plants will be closed ihe middle of next month because of he inability to get coal without paving what he considers an exorbitant price and that he will not pay it
 According to figures which are sub nftted by Secretary Hoover it is esti- mated that Mr. Ford would increase the sost of producing each one of his auto mobiles by s1.50 if he should pay the price at which he can obtain coal neces- tary to keep his plants in operation. Re has it broadcasted to the effect that Inc Ford plants have made s60 900, 900 b the past year and yet he will not ihouider that added cost of production, ir pass it along. because he believes it u be profteerins when such price E lsked for coal.
 Whatever fight Mir. Ford can make iEainst profteering Is doubtless needed. others are quite as much disposed to zise their voice in the same cause, but MT. Fords rlant doesn't stop there. He doesn't intsnd to pay that added price Tor coal. He will close his factories first 1T he and his profits were all that were affected that would call for applause but it Is to be noted that something like too 900 employees are to be thrown out ur work by Mir. Ford because MT. Ford Isn't able 10 get his fuel at a price which hs doesn't consider prohteering, even though he made $50 900 .000' last year.
 Instead Of making his employees, T whom he seems to show so much fa lerest. bear the brunt of this fight agains pr0hteering, for 1t doesn't appear tl1a be intends to pay them while the factor, ls closed it would seem to be far nor, effective if he would put his finger or these coal rrodteers and throw somi dEht on these rrodteering conditions beyond making some abstract claims There can be no sympathy for the pro Ulcers but it seems to be fighting then ir a very round about way when Mir Ford discharges his own employees be Eauss of prohteers' operations.

EXPECTING THE IMPOSSIBLE.

It is quite natural that thought should be turned to the ability of the railroads to meet the transportation requirements in connection with the effort to make up for lost time and production dn the distribution of coal
 There is no justification however :n expecting the railroads to do the im- possible. For years it has been urged upon the coal consumers of the country that they should purchase in the spring and have put in their cellars the fuel they are going to need for the coming winter. The purpose of this was to ob- tain it while it was possible to get the greatest benefit of transportation facili- ties and to have a steady distribution of coal undertaken instead of attempt ing to have an abnormal amount hauled in an unreasonably short time Thus is was realized that under the best of conditions there was good reason for not expecting the impossible from the trans portation lines.
 Since the first of April there has been steady drop in the amount of coal hauled. Bins are empty which ordin- arily were full in anticipation of the coming coal weather and under normal conditions large stocks of it would be on hand for manufacturing establish ments. This shortage is due to the coal strike.
 By speeding up production where il has been resumed or where it is hoped tt will be soon much relief can be given to the situation if transportation R equal to the demands, but it is not pro per to expect the railroads to overcome the shortcomings elsewhere. The re- sponsibility for any inability to get coal must rest where it belongs, quite the same as must any handicap over the condition of railroad equipment
