When the World 10 Filled.

A member Of the Royal Geographic
society in England estimates that the
fertile lands of the globe amount to
2s,0Oo,OOO square miles, the steppes to
100000, and the deserts to 100000.
Fixing 2O7 persons to the square mile
for fertile lands, ten for steppes and
one for deserts as the greatest popu-
latlon that the earth could properly
nourish, he arrives at the conclusion
that when the number Of inhabitants
reaches about 6,OO0,0O0,0O0 our planet
will be peopled to its full capacity.
If the rate Of increase shown BY
recent census statistics should be uni
formly maintained, it is shown that
the globe would be fully peopled
about the year 2072. But such calcu-
latlons do not allow for unknown
sources of error, and therefore cannot
be taken too literally.

Brigadicr-Gencral Amos A. Fries
Chief OF the Chemical Warfare Ser
vice, u S A, in a recent paper said:
What thrill it must have given the
German himself when he realized the
almost limitless power the control OF
the dye industry would give him when
waging war. He felt that with that
control he could win in war against
the whole world. And few indeed are
they who know just how close Ger
many came to winning that war. The
lesson which that bit of history teaches
chemical industry in all its ramihca-
tions, resting secure in the knowledge
that if we do so no power on earth can
overcome us for lack of war materials"

american Valuation Plan
Observation-Disclosures
Il 2 REYNOLDS
Financial Expert, Making In
vestigation for Senate FL
nance Committee, Says New
System is Feasible.

The American Valuation plan OF
assessing import duties. as provided
In the pending Fordney tariff bill. is
possible Of administration and the only
feasible means of compiling a tariff
that will afford adequate protection
to the American manufacturer. ac-
cording to J. B. Reynolds. former as
sistant Secretary Of the Treasury and
now director Of valuation investiga-
tions for the Senate Finance Commit
tee.
There Is nothing uncanny. nothing
mysterious and nothing at all OF a
tremendously unusual or out-of-the-
way nature about American Valua-
tion," Mr.. Reynolds says, To-day.
when imports are brought into this
country they are assessed on the basis
of the value in foreign countries. The
invoice is presented and on that the
importer puts his value.
' Invoices Practically Worthless
"These invoices-to give them all the
credit that they are entitled to-in the
average case are worth a little less.
perhaps. than the paper on which
they are printed. Now, I say, that
after long experience in handling
invoices, and by that I mean that the
certification that the consul abroad has
to make amounts to nothing. The in
voices go through on the day before
O ship sails: they go into a consular
Office in any part of the world where
there is q large business between that
country and the United States. You
have d perfect string of people filing
In with invoices to get the invoice off
on the next boat with the automatic
affixing Of a stamp. 1t is a matter OF
q clerk signing the consurs name. And
all that II does Is to certify that that
invoice Is on the right colored paper,
is made out in the right legal form.
and nothing else.
AThere is a proposition now put up
against that. 1t seems to me 1t Is a
very simple one. Instead of putting
the duties, assessing the ad valorem
duties which are duties assessed on
the value Of goods. on the foreign or
invoice value. the proposition Is to put
these duties on the value Of the goods
in the United States.
1.-THE value Of the goods In the United
States is not an unknown quantity.
It can be found. All the books. all
the papers of the manufacturers. the
jobbers and the sellers of every kind,
are at, the disposal of the Government.
Prices are known in this country.
We are dealing with an absolutely
known and certain proposition and
the whole idea is simply that where
there 10 an ad valorem rate Of duty
on goods. we do not try 10 assess this
On the foreign value, which u Iargsly

"My brother" said the solemn per
son, "are you so living In this world
that you will wear a golden crown in

guess work. but upon the American
value of the goods that is known in tho
being found out.
A Feasible Plan
"The American valuation plan. In
my Judgment, is absolutely possible
of administration. and also feasible
of enforcement. There Is nothing In 1t
that cannot be carried on after a little
practice just as well as the present law
is.
"The idea that 1t is impossible to
find out what the American value of
piece Of goods, Is when you are sup
posed to find out the foreign value
seems, to me preposterous.
There is one more thing to be kept
in mind. The only way to take care
of deprecated currency at the present
time and to make the manufacturer
safe and able to carry on his business
under deprecated currency, is to put
aside the need for the manufacturer
to wonder in what currency the duty
will be assessed on the goods with
which he has to compete. and wonder
one day what 1t is going to be the next.
He must have 1t fixed on the one
stable thing in the financial world,
and that is United States money.
This is something that does not
change and will not change. And the
only way to have stable duties. the
only way to have duties that will say
what they mean and mean what they
say, in the tariff law. is to have q duty
that when IL depends on the value of
the goods II depends upon its Amer
lean value and not on the value that
II has in q foreign country that
changes from DAY TO day and from
hour to hour"

December 23.

The governing sign of this date
is Sagittarius Capricorn, and the
governing sign is Jupiter, wSo in
Il few days will be replaced by
sombre Saturn.
The inordinate social and intel
lectual ambition of Capricorn is
modified by the more tberal and
democratic attributes of it's
neighbors. These people are
among the great thinkers and
workers of the world. They are
inspired teachers of the young
and much fonder Of children than
the average Capricorner. who eX-
poets little folks to be constantly
on their good behavior,
The governing planet is largely
responsible for the youth and
gayety of the people born on the
cusp. 1t offsets the more sombre
influences Of its successor.

PAPERS SUFFER
FROM HIGH RATE
War Time Tax Still Collected
By Postoffice Authorities I'm
der Zone System

ATLANTA, Oct. 3. - American
newspapers and magazines are car
rying a heavy burden of expense 70:
which there appears now to be no
reason, according to Atlanta publish
ers. The postal rates on second class
matter, provided in the revenue law
of 1917, have been, it is claimed
here, a heavy drain upon the pub
fishers of America.
This high tax upon publications
unquestionably has resulted m fore
ing many to suspend or merge with
other publications, and it has been
constant drain upon the others"
said an Atlanta publisher today.
The higher postal rates were fore
ed as a war revenue measure. AS
such the publishers accepted them
and met the requirements without
grumbling, all the while doing their
full part in every other way to help

win the war by responding to every
call made by the government and by
cooperating with the government n
every possible manner.
The war is over. There is no long
er an excuse, it is pointed out here,
for the second class rates and these
Is no reason for making the newspa-
pers and magazines of the United
States bear a war burden longer.
In the fall of 1917-to be exact
on October 3-without any public
hearings before either the posto fficc
and post roads committee of the sen.
ate or the house, congress passed
bill which established the present
zone system az a war-revenue meas
ure. The law became effective July
1, 1918, by Order No. 1853, having
four regular advances on that por-
ton of publication devoted to
advertisements.
The law overthrow the policy
which had been in force for IS years
and provided for a zone system of

CENSUS FIGURES
SHOW COLQUITT
BALES TOTAL 10, 400

MOULTRIE, Oct. 6. - Figures
made public by the Census Bureau
yesterday show that Colquitt coun-
ty had ginned 1896 bales of cotton
prior to Sept. Is, are taken by cot
ton men here to indicate that the
county's total production will not be
much more than $4,000 bales,
against an estimated crop of 10000
bales. 1t was pointed out that
weather conditions in July were very
unfavOrable, the excessive rains max
ing it almost out of the question to
combat the ravages of the boil wee
vii. Some few farmers, with lands
on high ground, report one of the
best crops Of cotton in several years,
but the rank and file of cotton men
are greatly disappointed. 1t also is
certain that there will be a substan-
tial reduction in the acreage given
to the staple next year.
