ENGLISH DAYLIGHT SAVING.

Of course the Englishman who praised England's weather" and said that America did not have any that was good. her climate bringing only ''hels of heat and cold" meant q compliment for his own country and something else again" for ours. He did not seem to think it possible that any people would prefer to have the best sometimes even if obtaining it comes at the cost of having the worst on other occasions It is true that American weather" hits the high spots of beauty and descends to some mighty tow ones. But it is also true that many Americans prefer to know ifc's high spots, even if they must touch the depths to make up for frequent intense enjoyment.
 All of which has an indirect bearing on the fact that daylight saving" be- gan in England yesterday while we have scarcely begun to argue what we are going to do about it. And this fact emphasizes the advisabiity of doing something about it."
 Americans pride themselves on knowing a good thing when they see it, and on seizing and utilizing that good thing quickly. Both in recog hilton of the value of taking adVant- age of that extra hour of daylight and in appropriatng that extra hour more energy than has America. When conservative England does this it is time for us to wonder at our annual delay in matter so vital.

BABSON LAUDS ADVERTISING.

In following Roger Babsons per- sonal survey of business conditions throughout the country from week to week, one cannot avoid comment ing on his remarks concerning the value of advertising as exemplified in the case of California. The fact that these remarks of the economic expert have come in the regular course of his articles removes whatever impro- priety there might be deemed to ex ist in the act of an advertising me- dium in praising the value of it's own commodity.
 After showing how California be- lieves in advertising and has thereby taught people everywhere to eat Cal ifornia oranges instead of Florida fruit and to idealize California eli mate above the weather conditions of other localities, MT. Bahson sums up the situation thus: In spite of the 40 per cent loss in their fruit crop due to a freeze last February, and 50 per cent loss in tourist crop due to the depression in the east California has kept on advertising. Instead of go- ing into serious depression it has managed to eXccrte T sidewisc move ment !. If California manages as well ;s she has started in stemming the de- cline she will stand as a unique cx- ample of the tremendous power of advertising and collective marketing"
 Business generally in California, says MT. Babson, is 95 per cent of normal. It was figured last week in these columns that New England bus mess must be within ten per cent of normal, or 90 per cent normal, Ac- cording to MT. Babson, therefore, the five per cent difference which stands to Caifornia's credit in spite of so and 40 per cent failure in two great crops" represents the value of ad-  vertising which, in that western state, was continued in spite of discourage mcnts. There would seem to be a lesson in this situation--a lesson for not only the state, city, community, but also for the individual and cor poration.
 Be it noted again that not yet has MT. Babson written anything as en- couraging as his remark about the outlook for New England. Remem- bering his prophecy it would seem that advertising might help consider ably in this sections approach to the goal of good times predicted for it so

MORAL FORCE OF THE '. s,

II will now be seen how much Europe wants closer association with the United States--how strong do France and England consider our moral force, how valuable our moral support.
 For the Four Power treaty itself gives only that moral support and co- operation The amendment added em- phas2es that fact that our moral sup port alone Is intended [ obe given our port alone Is intended to he given uor wrench" which has been thrown into the machinery at Washington in the matter of misunderstanding as 10 whether or not the provisions of the supplementary interpretation eXclud- ing the Japanese home land from the provisions of the treaty, and the con sideration oi domestic qucstions' such as the immigration problem, gives France chance to discuss the obligation denying amendment, and Japan chance to consider this inn migration problem, before the ratih- cation discussion at Washington has finally settled.
 If the moral support and co-opera- ton of the United States is considered ac h, to 1, France, with some protests. will not change the treaty as amended by the Senate and will not attempt to in crease, by amendment, her navol ratio from 1.75 to 2.5 as has been sug- gested across the water. England will make no trouble, undoubtedly, over ratification of the treaty as it comes from the Senate. Japan wanted her homeland excluded and did not need to have the doubt about the immigra- tion matter called to her attention to know that such doubt existed. It is not beyond the realms of possibility that Japan has seen the chance to bring this immigration matter before the signatories to the treaty, under the terms of the treaty as one of the questions over which "controversy" might arise, and is surprised that the United States has just discovered this possibility.
 Meanwhile the discussion at Wash ington continues as to what was rati- fled and what was not. The reports from the Senate indicate that few sen- ators are quite sure. Even Senator Lodge modified his opinion from that of asserting that no further action was needed to the attitude which ac- quiesced in the plan of presenting further resolution, ratifying the sup plementary interpretation" of the treaty
 In the manner in which the amend ed treaty is acted upon by the other nations parties to it may be seen just how advantageous it will be, in the opinion of those other nations, to have treaty ties with this country,

 The Improvement in the building is worthy of especial empha- sis, More building, of course. must mean from the character of the re- ports. more rents, More apartments in which people may live will innu- ence rentals in the only way they may be forced downward, which is by increasing the supply to meet the pres ent demand, The result lower rentals. will make life much easier for the majority of wage earners who are tenants and not landlords,
 These facts are obvious as is the statement that employment of all men engaged In the building trades will relieve the general unemployment sit nation by taking from tho number of unemployed those who have skill in that trade and leaving the unskiled workers to do the work that may be attended to by those having no trade
