Back of the Dyestufs Tariff.

A five hours debate, characterized as the
most stubborn Of the many that have ensued over
the provisions of the tariff BILL ended in the adop
so per cent ad valorem and 7 cents pound spe-
cifc duty Of coal tar dyes and dyestuffs. Back Of
this lies chapter Of history that should not be
lightly turned down.
Prior to the war German chemists had
acquired virtual monopoly on synthetic dyes
result of the intensive study and research car
ried on in their great laboratories. Discoveries
therein made were protected by patents, and the
great textile industry of the world paid full
tribute to the German chemical industry. When
the war came on America in common with the
world suffered because of the shutting off of the
supply of dyes from Germany. One of the ef-
fects Of our entrance into the war was the seiz-
tire, among other things, of the German patents
registered in this country, and the subsequent
sale Of the same by the war board to an American
chemical syndicate, which is now producing the
dyes
1t is beside the question to contend that the
patents were sold at too low fgure if any
blame flows from that, it should attach to A.
Mitchell Palmer, former head of the alien prop
erty board and later attorney general of the
United States, under whose administration the
sale was made. The question to be considered is:
Shall the dye industry of the United States be
denied protection, and the German monopoly
be restored as will follow, or will congress sus-
tain the home manufacture by laying suitable
tariff on imported dyes? That is the essence of
the problem.

Most OF the farm land Of Lithuana formerly
was held by Polish absentee landlords. Now
law provides that no man may hold more than
200 acres, and the government will buy up the
surplus of the great estates at fixed price per
acre. This is back to the land movement with
trimmings, and 1400C new farmers will have land
of their own this year.

College Mermaids.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
Beginning with the class of 1924, the young
women of Radcliffe college who want a degree
must be able to swim. dive and float. 1t would
be good thing If all colleges, for men and
women alike, enforced similar prescription.
President Briggs. of Radcliffe, some years
ago asked for specifications for swimming
tank. New York firm replied that for a
certain sum it would supply a tank with a cap
acity of 1900 gals" DR.. Briggs replied with
dignity that there were but 400 young ladies in
residence at Radcliffe.
But now there is tank. and it is employed
to good purpose in training young women to be
at home in the water. In every form of ath-
letics today the effort is to make the benefits
distributive. 1t is not thought adequate for a
few to stage a competition in a vast arena while
thousands look on. 1t is a. wise administration
of athletics that makes participation in sports
general and builds up the physique of many
instead of developing extraordinary prowess on
the part of small number. Swimming in
moderation is among the most salubrious Of
exercises, and fair amount of skill in the pas
time may be the means of saving life in an un-
predictable emergency.

Room for Both,

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The agricultural bloc has apparently won its
fight for representation on the federal reserve
board. Acceptance by the house OF a bill that
had previously passed the senate providing for
six instead Of five appontNe members the
board and the inclusion OF the word "agricul-
turar' with the other interests specifically EMU
merated In the original act makes the presidents
obligation In the matter clear. The fact that he
had already announced his intention to appoint
dirt farmer to the first vacancy on the board
precludes any possibility Of presidential veto
crease in the size of the federal board was desr-
able. The nature of its duties are such that
small group is more likely to function to advan.
tage than larger one However, six appointive
members plus the government representatives
still leaves board that is not likely to be
wieldy on account of its size. 1t would be un.
fortunate however, IL other specific interests or
precedent and demand for themselves specific
representation in the nations high finance court
The bankers on the board are there not to rep.
resent the interest of the bankers as a group
nor should the agricultural member who is now
provided for enter upon his duties with the idea
that 1t is his business interpret the law and to
direct the financial policies of the country in the
particular interest of the farmers. That kind of
representation could end nowhere but in disaster
There is one ground however, upon which
the enlargement of the board will be agreeably
accepted by those who have up to this time op-
posed it. The way is now open for the president
to satisfy the agricultural bloc, make good his
own commitment and still reappont Governor

The Twin Menace.

From the New York World.
There were two paragraphs in Governor
Miller's speech which deserve the thoughtful
study and the conscientious application of every
voter:
There two classes of people that are
the greatest menaces in this country today
One of them consists of those without char
acter, without conscience, without scrupe,
without morality, who for place or profit or
personal ambition attempt to corrupt the
electorate to poison the minds of the peo-
pie. to 1atter and to begue the people on
the pretense that they are their friends,
when they merely seek to debauch them.
. The other class is the opposite extreme.
NO less dangerous because they furnish am.
munitton for the class to which l have al
luded are those who think that because they
possess power they may exercise it as they
please, that because they possess property
property rights are supreme to the public
interests. that from habit desire to have
come to think that they are chosen to direct
the destinies of the people, but that that d.
rection must be along the line of putting
money in their own pockets. .-ts
The governor mentioned names. He left
the matter OF identification to his audience, but
nobody had diagnosed more clearly or precisely
the fundamental evil of American public life
jess Willard Potato King
From the Kansas City Journal.
Almost on the same day that Jack Dempsey
returned from Europe and posed for the camera,
uncornfortably wearing a monocle, the Union
Pacific railroad published individual statistics
or the potato acreage in the Kaw valley. Ganc.
ing down the list, it is found that Jess Willard
has set out 225 acres. Further perusal dis
closes the Illuminating fact that Willard has
planted more potatoes than any other farmer
on the north side of the river. While Dempsey
cavorted over Europe, Willard was making a
material contribution to the national potato
production.
In the old days, it used to be the general i'm
preston that after champion prizefighter had
heard the birds twitter the referee counted
ten, he opened a saloon. More recently ex.
champions have been going in for the stage
and the movies Willard goes back to Kansas
and outdoes all the neighbors raising potatoes.
Pugilism needs more fighters of Wilard's
kind. Dempsey may have demonstrated that he
was quicker than Jess with the gloves, and Jess
himself may have said he never cared much
about fighting. The fact remains that if there
were more men like Willard in the game, many
who condemn boxing now would have better
opinion of it. Pugsm needs more men who
put the children in the car on Saturday night
and drive into town to the movies.

FLORIDA FREIGHT RATES TC
BE LOWERED JULY 1ST

a special from Tallahassee says that
the Florida Railroad Commission has
ordered that all interstate freight
rates shall be reduced in an amount
equal TO the cut recently ordered by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
1875 per cent, effective July 1st.
The order making this slash ef-
fective is as follows:
To all railroads and railroad COM
panies doing an interstate business

Whereas. the Interstate Commerce
Commission. in case No 1928, de-
cided May is, 1922, held that there
should be a decrease in interstate

BUSINESS OF COUNTRY SHOWING
GREAT IMPROVEMENT

The continued indications of indus
trial Improvement, signs of a renewed
easing in money rates and diverse tes-
timony as to crop conditions are the
features in business and finance of
the past week Commodity prices still
show a firmer tone, retail trade is
about what might be expected at this
time of year, and the labor situation
shows no decided change Altogether
the picture continues to be one of
gradual but fairly steady recovery
from depression-a recovery, in fact,
which on the whole exceeds expecta-
tiOns entertained earlier in the year
From the industrial field, recent re-
ports show that the steel plants are
still operating at rates which compare
favorably with full capacity operations
before the war-even if these rates
correspond to only Is per cent Of pres
ent day capacity. Steel prices are
firm and most OF the companies ap-
pear 10 be making modest profits.
The value of building contracts let
in twenty seven northeastern states
during May set a new high record for
all time and was six times greater
than the monthly average during 1914.
Automobile production during May
also exceeded all previous records
while the steel companies report in
creased demand from manufacturers
of agricultural implements. Railroad
car loadings rose in the week ending
May 28. to level comparable to that
prevailing before the coal strike and
the movement of merchandise was Is
per cent greater than in the same
week year ago. Orders for railroad
continue to be placed in
satisfactory volume.
Latest reports from the northwest
indicate, meanwhile, that the pros
poets are for a good wheat crop.
Prices of wheat for future delivery,

Florida is a wonderful state with
uneXcelled possibilities.
These words, used to express his
impression of this state, were spoken
by DR.. w. L. Lobjoit. controller of
horticulture of the Ministry of Agri-
culture and Fisheries, England who
made a recent visit to the University
of Florida while officially visiting this

Fifty years from now your state

that it is beyond the human magma

will be within a half century

PATHETIC Mr.. HARDING

There was an element of pathos in
Mr.. Harding's protest to the Washing
ton correspondents against the pub
lication of criticism of his Admins
tratiCn made on the floor of the House
and the Senate.
The President knows that the Ad-
m;l;stration is adrift, but he has a
simple, child-lke faith that it might
be able to bump into safe anchor
age if only means could be devised
to suppress all adverse opinion One
might be puzzled to explain why a
President with Mr.. Hardings record
of unfailing censure toward everything
that Mr. Wilson did should be so SEN
sitive about criticism Of his own Ad-
ministratiOn, but while Mr. Harding
holds the same Office that Mr.. Wilson
held, he is not in the same position.
Mr. Wilson was President of the
United States in his own right, and
Mr.. Harding like Mr. Taft, is a proxy
President The difference is that Mr..
Taft was elected as Mr.. RoOsevelt's
proxy and Mr. Harding is the Old
Guards proxy. Mr.. Harding knows
that he was not nominated for Presi-
dent in order to have policies and pro
grammes OF his own, bat to serve as
q rubber stamp for the best minds"
of the party Among these best minds
is Harry NJ. Daugherty, who made the
arrangements at Chicago for the Hard
ing nomination and is the chief liaison
officer of the Administration. When
ever there is a job of plain or fancy
fixing to be done it devolves on Mr..
Daugherty
Naturally the President is indignant
when Republican Congressman attack
Mr.. Daugherty and demand an investi-
cation of the Department of Justice.
He is no less indignant when Republi-
can newspapers publish these attacks
and support the Congressman whi are
insistent on an investigation. This
is all contrary to the code of Ohio
politics in which Mr. Harding was
trained. and he cannot understand it,
so he talks about political black
mailers" and urges the correspondents
to put on the brakes BY this he
means that they should not print any
thing said or done in Congress which
might embarrass the Administration.
Ordinarily Mr. Harding is a calm,
placid person, but government is get
ting on his nerves. His party is shot
to pieces and the advice that he re-
ceives from the leaders is usually bad
advice. If he were a strong President
he would long ago have taken charge
Of the situation, developed pro-
gramme of his own and made his fight
for it, but he is not a strong President
and would never have been nominal
ed if there had been the faintest pos
sibility that he might develop into one.
He sees his Administration crumbling,
he watches the record of Congress
grow from bad to worse, he finds that
popular discomfort within the party
is steadily increasing and so he be-
gins to scold the correspondents for
writing the news.
The cold, unpalatable truth is that
Mr.. Harding holds an Office for which
he is not qualified by training or tenn
permanent, but he might be doing bet
ter with it if the leaders of his party
in Congress had been more intelligent
or if they had ever run straight with
him. While Mr. Wilson was President
