GERMANY BOUGHT
 THIRD 1921 COPPER

Boston, Jan. 27.-Over 200000,0OO pounds of American copper were ship ped to Germany during 1921. These shipments tar exceeded exports to any other country and furnished more than 33 per cent of the outward bound shipments for the past 12 months.
 The bulk if not all the business rep resented cash payments of more than $3O,OOOOOO.
 Eleven months taking of American copper by Germany, for three years, has been:

FARMER AID
MEASURES
ARE LISTED
Leader of Agricultural
Bloc Outlines Legis-
lation Secured From
Congress
By Senator Arthur Capper

Washington, March 10-The
outstanding achievement In this
congress In constructive legisla-
tion has been it's great work for
agriculture. 1t has laid new
and firm foundation for national
prosperity. No doubt mistakes
have been made and there is a
great deal yet to be done, but no
like amount Of important legisla-
tion beneficial to the farming in
dustry and therefore to the nation
al welfare, has, in my estimation,
ever been accomplished by any pre-
ceding congress in such a short
time.
President Harding's sympathet-
ic attitude toward the farmer and
stockmen has been Of great help.
When the new President and the
new congress took up the reins
in Washington last March the
farming industry was on the
verge Of collapse. While the cri-
sis has not as yet been passed,
the emergency could scarcely
have been more promptly met by
legislation. AS a result we have
these new laws for the rehabilia-
tion of the farming industry, sew
eral OF them eDOchal and others
yet TO come. They are:

Third Man Admits
Hand In Plot to
Defraud Governm't

Los Angeles, Cal, March 10
Confession of third man involved
in an alleged conspiracy to defraud
the government by manipulation
of bids for army goods at an army
auction in Camp Kearney last
month, was made Anown by fed
eral agents here today on the eve
of presentation to the federal
grand jury tomorrow of mass of
evidence in the case.
The confession was reported to
be that of a Los Angeles man,
member of large firm of salvage
agents which, according to con-
fessions reported to be in the
hands of the federal investigators,
would have made hundreds Of
thousands of dollars if the alleged
conspiracy had not been thwarted.

of reducing the maximum surtax
of big incomes from 65 to 80 per
cent, as demanded by big busi-
ness, Congress set the high limit
at 68.
Savings from Armament
Out Of the conference on dis
armament, called by President
Harding, will come a saving OF
billions OF dollars, which will
help every nation to climb back
from the financial depths into
which 1t fell during the world
war.
This programme for lettering
the economic condition of the farm
ing industry and putting 1t on an
equal footing with rganized in
dustry and business, and reducing
the burdens Of taxation, has met
with bitter opposition from Wall
Street business men and Eastern
newspapers.
But, l believe that the adminis-
tration fully realizes that the farm
er has been made the goat and
that he must be given a square
deal If he is to come back and
make his vital contribution to the
prosperity of the nation.

The Curtis bill, appropriating
$25, 100000 as revolving fund
for the Federal Farm Loan banks.
Some Taxation Removed.
Some Of the burdens OF taxa
tion have been removed from the
shoulders of farmers by the new
revenue law. The exemption for
a married man has been raised
from $4,000 to $2,500 and the ex-
emption for dependent has been
increased from 5000 to $400. The
wealthy corporations and individ-
uals, who sought to Shift still
more of the burden of war taxes
to the shoulders Of those least
able to pay, did not succeed. Con-
gress refused to cut radically the
rate on big incomes, holding that
the recipient is to pay a bigger
tax.
Under the new tax law 2,000,-
900 little homes in the United
States will Immediately be reliev-
ed from further payment Of any
income taxes. Thousands of other
families Of small means will re-

GOOD READIN'"

In 1910 the world will celebrate the 500th anniversary of
the invention of movable type. Before this invention, print
ing was done by carving an entire page on a solid block OF
wood or metal.
In the go years after the first movable type was brought
out by Coster or Gutenberg, 10000 books were printed.
Men rapidly developed the appetite for reading.
Research men in England, with more time than they
know what to do with, have been checking up. They esti-
mate that about 16, 100000 separate books have been printed,
in all countries combined, since the invention OF movable type,
Nearly 300,0 900 new books are turned loose ON the world
each year. And the flood steadily grows larger.
In addition, is the tremendous output OF newspapers, mag
azines, trade papers, folders, booklets, etc.
Small wonder, that most of us are perpexed when it
comes to deciding what to read. We are like flies, facing a
mountain of sugar, and unable to eat more than one grain at
a time.
Rather a discouraging outlook for young writers. George
AIDE once said that the chief trouble with the writing bust
ness is that there is so much competition with dead men.
Even a rapid reader, reading all day and far into the
night, would be unable to peruse more than l in 1000 OF the
new books issued yearly throughout the world. Life is short
We are Gagged in by the limits of time.
As with books, so with knowledge. The most brilliant
brain finds life too short to acquire more than a tiny frac-
ton of the vast fund of knowledge accumulated and passed
on through the centuries by millions of inquiring minds.
knowledge isNa circus with a million rings, all going at
once, no man able to grasp the whole show. The choice is to
watch one ring intently (speciaize) or wander up and down
the tent. picking up a smatterng about all rings in general
and none in particular.
French writers seem to grasp the idea. 1t is not unusual
for one of them to devote a lifetime of research to writing
the history of one article-such as the pin, glove or sparrow.
Greatest of all books is the never-ending serial story, the
Book of Life. You see it mirrored in the newspaper.

age to haul freight by truck? p
X. D. G.
A.Cost of transportating freight
by truck is affected by so many
varying conditions that an average
ate is difficult to arrive at. How
ever, the cost per ton mile In this

similar in principle to the Edison
photograph, was invented conjoint-
Is by C. A. Bell and Charles s.

@. What was the "Great
Awakening''?-I r. w.
A The Great Awakening was
the popular name for a remarkable
revival that swept over New Eng
land during the period 1740-45 up-
der the leadership of Jonathon Ed
warda and George Whitefield. AL
most n hundred and fifty
towns were stirred to a veritable re-
ligious frenzy and in the end it was
considered to have done more
harm than good, having resulted in
discussions and divisions in congre-
cations.
@. How long have there been
trade unions in England?-I. r. il.
A. Trade unions were legalized
in England in 1924. but such Or
ganizations or combinations Of
wage for the purpose of
maintaining or improving the con
dition of their employment have
existed continuously from the lat
ter part of the 18th Century. The
earliest actual record of such a
combination is that of the woo.en
workers of the southwest of Eng
land, which is mentioned as exist
ing in 1900 and frequently referred
to in Devonshire, Somerset, wal
shire and Worcestershire through
out the eighteenth century. The
London tailors can be shown to
have been in continuous combina-
ton from at least 1920 when an act
OF Parliament was passed to re-
strain them.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.-Tne
discovery of tobacco pipes in the
ruins OF the Colorado cliff-dwe.l-
ings this summer by DR.. j. Walter
F'ewkes, chief of the Bureau of
American Ethnology, adds another
bit to the accumulation OF data on
which Psychologists are building up
the history of the prehistoric peg
pia that inhabited the areo now set
aside as the Mesa Verde National
Park. 1t has not neen known be-
fore that the cliff-dwellers knew
the solace of hal weed which Co
lumbus discovered the West Indian
savages smoking three hundred
| years ago after the cliff-dweilers
attained the simmit of their civili-
zation.
Each SUMMERTIME government
| explorers excavate in the ruins on
Mesa Verde only during the sum
mers-adds more to the knowledge
of these remarkable people. 1t is
possible now TO give their civi,iza-
tior an approximate date. We
know fairly well now how and why
they rose to stand so much higher
il. intelligence and in tribal achieve
ment than the savage tribes that
surrounded them. We have a god
i0ea of their communal life. What
brought them to disaster, where
they went, and whether they awe
left descendants, are still matters
of conjecture, but investigation is
going on in a direction that may
some day give a complete picture
Of the cliff-dwellers.
Enough is known now, however

much the highest culture develop
ed in prehistoric times on this con
tlnent north of the Rio Grande.
South of what is now the Mex
can border there were other In
dian civilization even higher-those
Of the Azteos in Mexico, the Mayas
in Central America and the Ihcas
in South America. But the Gull
ture of the cliff Jewellers was a de-
velopment independent of these
others. The cliff jewellers were
probably q timid. unadventurous
people; and, according to DR.. Few
kes. they knew little of the world
outside a radius of a hundred
miles or so from their own narrow
province. There was probably nc
communication between them and
the Azetcs to the south.

quiet resting places.-Isaah SO: At, 1S.

and artistic potters. This in itself
was a tremendous advance over
most of the prehistoric people in
America. The pottery of the cliff
jewellers not only served its use but
in form and decoration it was beau
tiful, judged even by our standards
OF beauty today.
Thus necessity operated then as
it has in historic times to advance
civilization. The cliff-dwellers
reached the top of their greatness
about the twelfth century--tte
time of the Crusades in Euro e.
| when Robin Hood and his merry
men held Sherwood Forest in Eng
land and the barons were forcing
! the Magma Charta from tyrannical
King John. At the same time the
Indian tribes that ranged more "a
vored sections Of what is now the
United States suffered their occa-
| sional famines and advanced little
in culture.
What happened to the cliff
jewellers? Nothing is known def
nitely, but there is reasen to be-
lieye that the old story of Rome
and the barbarians was repeated
there on the Mesa Verde. The
conjecture is that the Ute Indians
drove oue the eliff-dwellers, WAC
meved to the south and became the
ancestors of what we know today
as the Pueblo Indians.
