REVIEW OF TRADE.

NEW YORK. February 11.-Dun's
review of. trade says:
THE movement toward better busi-
ness continues, but it is still slow
and uneven. and encounters various
obstacles. Efforts to reduce produc-
tion costs through adjustments Of
wages and working hours meet with
, resistance in some quarters. and labor
troubles at certain points have
further restricted the public consum-
ing power. Results of retail distri:
button disclose the influence Of econ
omy and discrimination in purchas-
ing and the effect Of variable weather,
while demands in different primary
channels reveal an unmistakable
undercurrent- Of hesitation and cau-
tion. The gains which appear, how
ever, are Of a wholesome character,
II moderate. and the improved posi-
tion Of the steel Industry Is especially
encouraging.
"At prices much below the previous
highest levels. some buyers who had
deferred commitments a. far as pos
sible during the period Of dehation
are now more disposed to operate,
and the trend Is steadily In the ,direc-
tion Of Increased outputs at some
manufacturing establishments.

Irrigation Threatens the Glacier Park

st. Mary lake, the upper of the two,
all Of it in Glacier National park, is
one of the most strikingly beautiful
waters on the American continent.
There are many who assign it first
place. An English traveller who had
explored the Himalayas and the Andes
recently stated that, among the lakes
of greatest beauty in the world, it is
by far the supreme example of Its
scenic kind.
1t lies east and west between noun
tains of quite extraordinary form and
coloring, including such world celebri-
ties as Red Eagle, Little Chief and
Going o-the-Sun mountains, and heads
up toward the glacier-splashed Con-
tinental divide at point of sensation
al magnificence.
The proposed reservoir will cover
the forested shores from which these
famous mountains rise and will SUBJ
merge several miles of fine forest at
the head of the lake through which
the glacier-run st. Mary river winds
into the lake. When the irrigation wa
ter is drawn low in August, the world
famous view from the st. Mary
chalets, which thousands go there to
see every summer, will be slashed

Uncle Sam May Join Reparation Board

porated in the senate resolution ct
October 10, 1921, by which the senate
ratified the separate treaty between
the United States and Germany.
This reservation, which was later
included in the Presidents proclama-
ton, provided that the United States
shall not be represented or participate
In any body, agency or commission,
nor shall any person represent the
United States as a member of any
body, agency or commission in which
the United States is authorized to par
tfcipate by this treaty unless and until
an act OF the congress of the United
States shall provide for such represen-
tation or participation"
Thus the administration holds that
under the specific language of the SEN
ate's ratification resolution the initia-
tive is clearly left with congress and,
it Is argued, suggestions from sena-
tors or congressman that the Prest-
dent should go ahead and name rep
resentative and transmit the name to
the senate for ratification are clearly
beside the point.
Senator Underwood recently de-
clared in the senate that the only way
for the United States to get any part
of the German reparation payments
was to get representation on the al
lied reparation commission.

Americas Need of Big Merchant Ships

A CTUAL naval strength of the
\ United States in case of war
would be greatly inferior to that of
Great Britain, Notwithstanding the
American and British navies are
placed on practically equal basis by
the naval treaty agreement, declared
Senator Ransdell of Louisiana in a
speech.
Speaking on the naval disarmament
treaty and the legislation designed to
extend government aid to American
shipping, Senator Ransdell, who is
president of the National Merchant
Marine association, pointed out that
navy, without adequate support
from its national trade fleet, is prac-
tically powerless.
"There Is only one way for naval
equality to be realized" he said, land
that is for America to make material
additions to its commercial fleet. Swift
vessels of commerce, carrying both
freight and passengers, having a
speed in excess of Is to 20 knots
preferably 20 knots and overland
from 10000 to $4,000 tons are most eff
fective as auxiliaries to the navy in
time of war"
How Great Britain stands in rela-
ton to the United States on the basis
of such ships is shown in the follow
ing table, adapted from figures pre-
sented by Senator Ransdell, giving the

Insectivorous Birds

The total eaten by these pests

the fruits grown every year and 20 per
cent of the vegetables.
The chinch bug, with the biggest ap-
petite of all, mounting to 100000. 900 a
year, affects Ohio. Indiana, southern
Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri,
Kansas and Nebraska. Sometimes it in
vades the southeastern coast states.
Grasshoppers, with $50,OOO,OO0 ap-
petite, are more or less common
throughout the whole United States.

"In other words" Mr.. Ransdell said,
"Great Britain has about three times
as many ships capable Of being used
as high-grade naval auxiliaries as the

that If our commercial marine is to
remain at its present level, so far as
these fast ships are concerned then
Great Britain, with her large fleet of
potential naval auxiliaries, would, be-
yond question, continue as she is to-
day, very much more powerful on the
