IMAGINE HENRY The PREsDENr.

Henry Ford is the latest conversational president"
observes the Louisville rerJourn ~and the dis
cusslon OF his chances If ~proitless, is vastly entertain-
ing. The Detroit man has a genius for getting into
the public mind. Now he is telling the railroad men
how to manage the roads, then he is mentioned a. sur
passing Rockefeller in wealth, again he is wiring tie

His little cars are hiding macadam from the sun.

beginnings as a poor farm-hoy from a typical Amer

with that theme is the Ford plan of supplanting the

Forgetting for a moment the Fordian absurdities
which, by the way, are as integral a part of his per-
sonality as is his mechanical skill. Mr.. Ford makes an
excellent conversational president for those who are
fond of this kind of romancing. Justin MeCarthy's
play, IfsI Were King is such a romance. Francois

AMERICAN

Commenting on the "macaroni and other aiimen-
tary pastes" industry, the United States Tariff Com
mission, in its fifth annual report, says that formerly
a large part of our supply Of 'alimentary pastes'
came from Italy, although the United States produces
a surplus OF durum wheat (the kind used in the in
dustry), especially priced for such pastes- During the
war the domestic industry rapidly expanded and re-
placed the Italian product which war conditions had
eliminated from American markets. Italian mncaroni,
however, commands a price premium and has a well
established demand, particularly among the foreign
residents of the United States, who are the largest
consumers. Domestic producers fear that when nor
NAL conditions are restored the Italian pastes will
regain their former market Imports during the past
two years have been relatively small"
The Democratic tariff law made a SO per cent re
duction in the duty on these goods, or from Ia cents
to 1 cent a pound. Today owing to the disparity in
exchange this duty is but little removed from free
trade. The pending tariff bill carries the old rate.
Probably the small importations of macaroni recorded
since the war is due to the miserable industrial plight
of Italy. But since the United States produces the
right sort of wheat for the manufacture of these
"alimentary paste" products, there seems to be no
good reason why that wheat should be sent abroad to
be made into pastes and then shipped back here in
competition with the American products. The grow
ers of the wheat can do much better by dsposing of
it to American manufacturers of these pastes, who
will employ American operatives to fabricate them,
and whose wages will be expended in part in the pur-
chase of foodstuffs, etc, produced by the American
farmer.

THE REAL NEEDS OF THE FARMER.

"The present troubles of the farmers" says the
Iron Trade Review, 'fow fundamentally from the
same causes which have brought distress to every in
dustry in nearly every country of the world. The
farmer has seen the prices of his products fall faster
than manufactured goods because he is unable to re-
strict production In the same degree as in the case of
industry. AS a consequence there is a surplus of farm
products in proportion to the volume of industrial
goods and the exchange value of the former natural
ly is depressed. In addition consumption in the indus
trial nations has been greatly curtailed.
"An business would welcome sound measures to lift
the farmer into the middle of prosperity. The more
radical of the farm leaders would demand government
financial aid to guarantee profitable prices. Such a
scheme, of course, is unthinSable.
what the farmers really need is some eomprehen-
sive credit plan and a scientific cooperative market
ing scheme. Like all other producers the farmer this
year should seek to cut production costs and increase
efficiency.
"Not higher prices for farm products but lower
prices for manufactured goods that are out of line
lower industrial labor costs and lower freight rates are
the real needs. When normal adjustments are made
recovery in the farm districts will go hand in hand
with that in the industrial %centers."

Is WORK A CURSE

A voluntary ~uplifter writing to the Boston Tran
script on the boy question says:
Frequently there come to me appeals, Illustrated
by pictures of merry, healthy-lookfng boys, and ask
ing the question, Should not this boy be given q
chance?' which chance, on reading further, appears to
mean more years at school and much skating and
sports, accompanied by much physical examination di-
rected to discovering possible bodily defects If the
same examination was made in private schools, it
seems unlikely that any child would be found physic-
ally perfect, teeth, eyes, etc. Besides this, the pri-
vate school pupil, as a rule, is hampered by a more
delicate constitution. Is not the community rather
hysterical, at present, over physiological conditions?
"Then, as to the length of school years. I have
heard a business man say he preferred in his office a
boy just out of the grammar school to one who had
gone through high, for the reason that he was more
full of life and zest and interest in his work. The
added years of school lover the age of 14), seemed to
lessen his enthusiasm and make him dull. This, to
me, is very easy to understand, for I have known sew

suit in which he wished to engage, being told he was

WANT THE

From the south comes an insistent demand Tor a
doubling of the import duties on vegetable oils, par
ticularly cotton seed oil, cocoanut oil, soy bean oil
and peanut oil. The southerners contend that vege-
table oils can be produced so cheaply in certain Pa
cifc islands and in China that it is impossible for the
American producer to continue successful competi.
ton. This is quite likely true What the southern
er is asking for is not a tariff for revenue only but
q tariff for protective purposes. The Democratic plat
form Of 1920 declared adherence to the traditional
policy" of the Democratic party, which policy de-
chres that congress has no constitutional right to i'm
pose an import duty for protection purposes. The Re
publican platform declared for a return to the Repub-
lean protection policy. The Republicans won at the
polls, but without the help of a single southern state
The south looks to the Republicans to enact a protec-
tive tariff law, from which it gets its share of benefits
but it never helps put the Republican party in power
