n B. ARNELL, Manager,
Oregon Teachers
- Monthly, Salem, Ore,
Dear Sir-I received some
time ago your letter In which
you advised me you are inter
ested in the proposition Of
writing an American-English
history.
Why not an American his
tory-exclusively and singly
American? What is the justi-
fication and whence the in
spiration for a hyphenated his
tory? Is there not ample ma
terial, after all possible errors
have been corrected, to make
an American history? Even If
it were no more than a plain,
candid, unadorned narrative Of
the building of this republic, it
would still be the most inspiring
story in all the annals Of re-
corded history.
The patience, the courage,
the sacrifice, the leadership, the
almost divine foresight which
such a plain story would reveal
and which no candid story could
conceal would still be sufficient
for a purely American story.
WANT FACTS TOLD.
"Revise our United States
history from its too plainly
partisan standpoint, especially
in so far at it touches our past
relations with Great Britain"
This is a sentence from your
letter and discloses the whole
purpose, as ] take it.
/ have no desire to have our
history do any injustice to Great
Britain. 1t is not necessary.
But l do not want facts con-
cealed nor events ignored in
order to satisfy those who now
seem to regret that their an
cestors ever came to this coun-
try. Rewrite our history as
often as you choose so long
as you tell the plain truth and
all the truth.
The truth is ample, not only
as to 1776, 1912, 1904, but
in the blessed year of 1922.
Is the Declaration and the in
dictment a lie? And, if not,
has any history been written
which goes farther in this sup
posed bias and partisanship?
NO EXPURGATED EDITION.
l presume our next step will
be an expurgated edition of
this document, and upon the
Fourth of July-should that
day continue to be observed
it will be read with appropriate
apology.
And in due time some syco-
phantic intellectual interloper
will feel constrained to urge
that we withhold from our
young men and women the un-
just attack so long made upon
the American English gentle
man known as Benedict Ar
mold. He is the most worthy
exemplar I know of for those
who feel that America alone is
not quite sufficient-that we

Seasonable temperatures made

III April on the Goth, when they
averaged a few degrees above
normal. Up to that time there
was a daily deficiency of seven
degrees, making a total shortage
of 1873 degrees for the first nine

PROMPTLY to the increased warm
tn and abundant sunshine that
has since prevailed, grain, pota-
toes, garden truck and fruits
showing marked improvement.
Cotton, where uninjured by cold
weather, has made satisfactory
progress but considerable replan-
ting has been necessary and
where such was the case fields

The first cutting of alfalfa is in
progress but in many sections
the quality is not entirely salts

Congressman Points Out Neces-
sity for New System Incorporated
in Tariff Bill.
1--WE are importing at the rate of
about $300,000,000 worth of foreign
goods per month into the United
States" declares Congressman ]. w.
Fordney, Chairman of the House
Ways and Means Committee. Most
of those goods could be made here.
There is not a manufactured article
produced in the United States in
which the labor cost is less than 90
per cent of the total COST mean,
following the raw material from
start to finish Now, if that is true,
of the $300,000,000 that we are send
ing abroad each month to buy for
eign made goods, $250,O00,000 is
going out from the people of the
United States to employ German,
French, English, Japanese and Chi
nese labor, while our laborers are
walking the streets in idleness.
Under free trade we must come
to a common level somewhere, if we
compete with all the countries of the
world Today German labor is get
ting from 90 to 65 cents per day in
gold for ten or twelve hours. Japan
csc and Chinese labor today is from
II to Is cents per day in gold for
twelve hours work. If we had to be
placed on a par with the imports
from those countries, do you believe
we could lift those foreign countries

all. We have got to come down to
common level somewhere, but we are
not ready to do that, and we are not
going to do it.
Revision Demanded
"The people of the country are de-
handing tariff revision. Some people
say that Canada will retaliate Can
the world, on the basis of population.
There is no place in the world where
our balance of trade is stronger than
in Canada. Canada has no reason to
complain about the rates fixed in the
new tariff bill; none whatever. l
shall tell you why.
Last year Canada collected $3.50
in import duties for every man, wo-
man and child in Canada. Great Brit
ain, the great free trade country of
the world, or said to be, collected
$1,000 per capita, or $728, 100000. We
collected $315. Little Japan is col
lecting at the rate of 20 per cent ad
valorem upon all her imports, duti-
able and free. We have the lowest
duty of any principal country on the
face of the earth right now, and
have had since 1913.

ing to the merchants of the country.

oppose American valuation. Why? |
shall tell you why. Last year in tie

there were ffty-four hundred cases

they are running at the rate of five
hundred cases a month
why do foreigners who export to
this country, or people of this coun-

less duty. Profit is made in the duty
