SAYING IT WITH SEEDS

The House of Representatives
of Congress is happy once more.
The free seed appropriation is
safe for another session. Not
that it was ever in any danger, al
though it had been cut out in
committee. And it has become
almost a routine to have it at
tackled and eliminated and later
restored. The hope seems to be
that the people who read about
the cutting out of this 100000
expense will never catch up with
the item telling of it being put
back. while congressman will re-
tain the perquisite of mailing free
seeds home just before the pri-
mary campaign opens.
A particularly insidious at
tempt was made this year to de
prive the statesmen of part of
this honest graft" A member,
arguing that seed prices had come
down, offered an amendment re-
ducing the appropriation from
S360.000 to S240,000, but it was
howled down.
Yet 100000 is more than one
third of a million and in these
days of budget bureaus and econ
omieS and retrenchment is not to
be sneezed at. A great many
people will think it might be put
TO better use than buying seeds
for congressman TO send out to
them anyhow. The most instruc-
tive part of the news item was
that seldom lately has there
been such spirit displayed in the
House over any matter" There's
nothing like an appropriation to
wake up Congress.

While most commodities used by
man have advanced in cost during the
past decade, automobile tires are a
notable exception.
Figures Just compiled bring out the
significant fact that tire prices have a
steady downward trend since the year
1910, with only a comparatively small
Increase during the war and afterwar
days.
Tires OF standard make can now be
bought at lower prices than before the
war, and indeed lower than at any
time since 1910.
And this has been done without
sacrifice of quality. for every tire user
knows that he is getting twice the
average mileage from his tires that
he was getting few years ago.
This unusual result has been ac-
complished through the tremendously
increased demand and use. which per-
mitted quantity production, and in
larger part by means Of the successive
improvements in manufacturing proc
esses. which brought quality up and
costs down.
Chart Tells Story.
The accompanying chart tells a
striking story of the progress since
1910 of an industry whose products
approach the billion dollar mark in
total annual figures.
Studying tie chart in detail. it will
be noted that starting with 1910. the
general range of commodities in the
United States ran about uniform up
until 1913 while cotton and rubber,
the two chief materials used In the
production of tires, had a general
downward trend.
Corresponding TO this, the price OF
the finished tires similarly moved
downward until in January, 1915.
they reached the lowest point they
had ever reached, point not again
to be touched until the price reduc-

cent higher than in 1910.
At about the same time labor costs
began to rise very sharply all over the
country, affecting every industry that
employed men. With raw materials
and labor costs both increasing, the

If an engine is not running we'll and

period from 1915 to the summer OF
1920 saw the general range of COM
modities In the United States climb
ing on and up until at the peak OF
1920. they were over 160 per cent
higher than in 1910.
In the rubber industry this increase
in the cost of materials and labor
was necessarily reflected in the cost
of tires. The downward trend In price
which had previously marked the III
dustry up TO 1916 was replaced by a
period of rising prices. From the
spring of 1918 until the fall of 1920
tire figures reached point where
they were within 80 per cent of the
1910 level.
End of Increased Costs.
The fall of 1920, however, saw the
end of the period of increased costs
in nearly every raw material and fin
ished product used by consumers.
Long staple cotton came down as
sharply ms 1t had risen, though it did
not get hack to'its old low levels, and
at the beginning of 1922 is still about
50 per cent higher than in 1910.
In this It ranges just a little higher
than the general price average of all
commodities in the country, as COM
piled by the United States Department
of Labor.
Labor costs, too, had come down
part of the way, but still, in this In
dustry. stand more than 100 per cent
over the 1910 level.
Crude rubber, which represents less
than % per cent OF the manufactur-
ing cost of tires. fabric and labor he
ing tile big items, has been moving
gradually downward since 1916 and
though now on the upgrade, is still
so per cent below 1910. Its price broke
sharply, too. in the fall Of 1920.
Cost of Tires Fell.
The cost of finished tires came
down Immediately in the fall of 1920
in line with the lowered cost of ma
terials and labor, despite the fact that
there were large Accommodations OF
stock, both raw materials and finish
cd products, to be absorbed. So today
we find a situation where tires are
60 per cent lower than in 1910.
Tn other words, tires have not only
gone below the pre-war levels, but
are lower now than they have ever
been in the history of this industry.
And this result. in an industry,
such as the tire industry. which makes
up over billion dollars worth Of
finished goods year, is story Of
tremendous economic Significance.

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
By s. w. STRAUS, President Amer
lean Society for Thrift

One occasionally comes in contact
with objections to thrift on the ground
that IL hurts business. The state
ment sometimes is made that all that
is needed TO make business generally
good today is for people to spend
more money.
This is a subject that deserves care
full analysis and the most thoughtful
consideration. Reckless spend in
upon the part Of the public would
stimulate some kinds of business, but
IL would be only a temporary and
Superficial acceieration II would not
be Fundamental and would be follow
ed by corresponding reaction.
Immediately following the war this
country experienced a period of eco
noinic intoxication Everything was
abnormal Speculation, spending, ex-
trayaganoe and luxury knew no
bounds. Then camc the reaction. out
of which we are just now emerging.
Ii is true that there should be more
spending of money by the people OF
the country today, and that such ac-
tivity would help the general bus
aoss situation. But such increased
expenditures should he along prudent
and thrifty lines. Spending in q
wasteful way will not bring sutstan-
tial help. hut spending along con-
structive and uplifting ways will put
more men to work and start the
wheels of industry turning in a nor
NAL way.
IL must lie borne in mind that any
activities that are fundamentally
wasteful are unworthy of encourage
ment. And the whole question OF
spending centcrs on the point of whe-
Their ones outgo OF money is con-
structive or wastesUl.
TO discourage practices OF thrift
and invite the wild, free spending or
money, merely for the purpose of
helping business is indeed poor couE-
sci. AS we have already seen, such
general practices would only lead us
into greater difficulties.
what the nation needs is a broad
understanding of the kind of thrift
which means thriving and getting
ahead.

TUESDAY, MARCH IA. 1922.
FINDING OUT ABOUT ALASKA

Ii is announced from Wash
ington that President Harding
may take a trip to Alaska during
the coming summer. He will eat
some big, fne-havored strawber-
ries grown within the Arctic
Circle; breathe some wonderful
" exhiIarating air; look up at
the highest mountain on the
North American continent; cool
his soles by walking upon a gen
uine glacier, and learn that there
are natural resources enough III
this marvellous country to pay
several thousand per cent proht
on the price we paid for 1t to
Russia little over half century
ago.
In general way doubtless
everybody hopes that these nat
ural resources will be administer
ed wisely and for the good OF all
the people. We have had some
pretty costly lessons in permit
ting the exploitation OF wealth
that ought TO have been develop
cd for the good of the nation as
a whole. Alaska affords an OPP
portunity to prove whether the
people of the United States have
learned anything from these I'M
fortunate experiences.
And yet, Developments as much
TO be desired as exploitation is to
be avoided. There is need for the
paper that the pulp wood of
Alaska would make. The min
erals and the lumber should be
put to use wisely. There are evil
dences that Alaska has not been
treated by the government in the
best possible way. Maybe the
president. during his visit, will
learn why territory of so many
advantages should decrease in
population during period like
that of the past decade.

The Friendly Path
By WALTER /. ROBINSON
NO ONE is PERFECT

uTF MEN are so wicked with re-
ligion, what would they be with
out it?' Those who are so free
with criticism of what religious or
ganizations are trying TO do are
seldom found helpilg heartedly
I'm making their work more effective.
]. always is much easier to find fault
than TO offer helpful advice. In re-
,iglous work or ANYTHING else OF con-
Sequence there are always certain to
be those who devote most of their
tine TO criticisihg. In consequence,
by fault finding, without communication
or pointing the way TO overcome the
things 20 which exceptions are taken,
the natural tendency is 10 disrupt,
weaken aid frequently destroy much
of The gooJ that otherwise would
make the world better and its people
more happy. Let those who are so
free with theis criticism of religious
activities keep ine lesson OF the prov
erb that they'll get more joy every
day, because they'll see some good
even among the bad conditions they
claim to deplore.
Those who become iisheartered in
doing good, because of the constant
fault-finding, need a new estimate Of
the importance of the work in which
they are engaged. Instead of being
sensitive Of criticism, it would be
much more to their credit If they ac-
copied fauft-finding as, something to
be expected; then their efforts would
likely be more effective in accomplish
ing the amount of good they set out
to do.
On the whole. the influence of re-
ligious work. even though slow and
disappointing nj times. is responsible
for the high moral code under which
virtually all the civilized world
operates. There may be evasions Of
the true course which is generally ac-
cepted as the pathway everyone should
tread But, nevertheless. as a rule
people don't side-step very often with
out experiencing pang of regret and
without lowering their estimates of
themselves.
1t is always disappointing when
those who teach others stray from the
proper course themselves. But. Il is
