Announcement was made yesterday
by the American section Of the Inter-
national Chamber Of Commerce Of the
appointment Of Basil Miles. who was
secretary of the American delegation
to the limitation of armament confer
ence. to. be the American adminfstra-
tive commissioner at the headquarters
of the international chamber at Paris.
Mr., Miles succeeds Frederick p. KEEP
pei, who has resigned to become con-
nected with the Russell Sage Founda-
ton. Mr.. Miles will sail for Paris
Immediately after the annual conven-
tion Of the Chamber of Commerce OF
the United States. which will be held
in Washington May Is to 18.
Ten of the sixteen countries con-
nected with the International cham
ber maintain administrative commits
sioners at the headquarters at Paris.
In addition to the commissioners, sew
eral Of the major countries also have
STATS of experts at the headquarters.
The commissioner serves as con-
Meeting link between the headquarters
and the membership Of the country he
represents. He also acts as an ad-
wiser to the general secretary of the
international chamber. and exchanges
commercial information with his fell
low commissioners. Often the COM

are, represented through membership,

nor are men employed in any of them. Two dis
tilleries in a small town near by are being used, one
Tor the production Of spirits and the other as a yeast
factory.
The local secretary. when asked why he had
sent ont the statements quoted, replied in substance
that when an inquiry>for information came from the
outside he felt it his duty to boost.
The boosting spirit is greatly to be desired, but
a boost that will not stand up might as we'll be a
knock. If the secretary wanted to boost the pro
hibition movement, which is possible, he could
scarcely have committed a worse blunder than in
sending out false information concerning its eff
fects. II he wanted to boost his town his blunder
was equally bad. As it is, he has injured both.
The fact that bank deposits in the city have
fallen off is not necessarily due to prohibition al
though, presumably, that has had its influence,
Peoria having been the home of very large distil-
lery interests. But there are also other causes for
decline in deposits. Probably some ren1uneratiye
use will be found for the empty distilleries. They
were made vacant by the operation of the prohibi-
ton law, and the same law threw their employees
out OF work. There can be no question Of this.
Under different general business conditions with
which prohibition has no connection some use
might have been found for the vacant buildings and
the unemployed men before this. As it is, both arc
yet idle. These facts might as we'll have been ad-
mitted. They could not be concealed.
1t may sometimes be discreet to withhold some
part of the truth. But that man is doing a poor
service to his city who sends out information con-
corning it which is contrary to the facts.

TOO WIDE A MARGIN.

Chairman Fordncy of the House Ways and,
Means committee in Washington recently exhibited
two knives, one of which he had been informed cost
9.O6 cents in Germany, the other, an exact dupli-
cate, was said to have sold at retail for $500 in
Chicago. The exhibit was used for the purpose Of
supporting the plan of American valuation as a
basis for levying duties.
Mr.. Fordncy's information has been defective.
A tul explanation OF this situation has been given
by the Chicago store which is said to have sold one
OF the knives, and the explanation, which bears the
marks of accuracy, thoroughly discredits the charge
of any such prohteering as that which has been
made. 1t is quite clear: that there must be a mis-
take Most people are reasonably IA
,niliar with the approximate purchase price of a
tour bladed pocket knife. Those things do not re-
tail usually for any such sum as $500, unless one
goes into particularly ornate or expensive STYLES.
it is beyond the bounds of possibility that such
a knife as would sell for $500 in one of our local
stores can be bought for 10 cents in Germany or
anywhere else.

CHAOS 1MPENDs IN IRELAND,

II a state of anarchy does not actually exist in
ireland, there is something very closely approaching
1T. Whether those who are most greatly to blame
tor the conditions which now exist are to be found
1t may be pretty safely assumed, however, that re-
cent acts of violence are due to the passion OF law
less and reckless men of both factions, for such men
are undoubtedly to be found on both sides.
The conditions are aggravated by the attitude
OF the lrreconcilible faction in the south headed
by De Valera Among the leaders of this group are
men OF education and intelligence, men who ought
to know that organized human society, no matter
in what form it EXISTS, is the result of compromise,
in which individuals, instead of insisting in all
cases on the full measure OF what they believe to
be their rights, concede something to the opinions
and desires OF others, and, on the basis of mutual
concessions, get together on a working basis. It is
uncomfortable that the irreconcilibles plan deliber-
ately to involve the people of their country in a
horrible civil war in which each man will be array
ed against his %neighbor. The only other explana-
ton is that they live, too completely in the realm of
theory that they are unable to adjust themselves to
the actual facts OF life. AS a result Of their dreams
a nation IS beng rent to pieces and millions of peo-
pie are being made to suffer untold injuries.
Michael Collins, the head of the southern pro-
lvisional government, declares his knowledge of the
existence OF a plot to destroy the provisional gov
eminent and prevent the carrying out of the terms
of the treaty creating the Irish free state. If there
is such a plot it is a despicable one. Various Irish
groups are in correspondence with their friends in
America, who continue their warm interest in the
affairs of Ireland. No real friend of Ireland, in this
country or elsewhere, will be found doing anything
to add fuel to the flames which threaten to consume
that distressed country. What Ireland needs is
peace and order, and these can be established on a
secure basis only through the exercise of the spirit
of forbearance and the development of mutual good
will.
