The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1923-09-24

1OnOOn, sept. E4.-S lScOuut Mor-
ley of Blackburn, former ward pres
ident of the council and secretary of
state for India died of heart dis
case.
Successfully mingling letters and
statecraft, Viscount Morley attain
ed remarkable eminence in both
spheres. In letters he was best
known for his biographical studies
such as his lives of Burke, VOltaire,
Golden, Diderot, Cromwell and Glad
stone; while in statesmanship his
most notable achievements were as
Chief Secretary for Ireland in the
Gladstone "Home Rule Cabinet" and
later as Secretary of State for India.
His practical retirement from pub
lie life came only when he was sew
enty-seven years old-shortly after
the outbreak of the European war.
He was then Lord President of the
Council in the Asquith Cabinet, and
was one Of the older men to give way
to the popular clamor for younger
and less partisan men during the
european ctlSiS.
As a landmark in British politics
he was a most pronounced Liberal,
and one of the most interesting in
cidents of his career is the fact that
after years Of denunciation of the
House Of Lords as an institution that
should be either "mended or ended"
he himself was elevated to the peer
age in 1908 and took seat in that
august body. He continued, however,
to be one Of the most active leaders
in the reform movement which curb
ed the power Of the Lords through
the Veto Bill.
Viscount Morley was born as John
Morley, the son Of q surgeon at
Blackburn, Lancashire, Eng, .Decem-
Der, "a, 1888. He was educated at
Cheltenham college and afterwards
at Lincoln college, Oxford.
When Gladstone formed what is
known as the Home Rule Cabinet in
1880, Mr.. Morley became Chief Sec
retary for Irelard. His sympathies
were strongly with the Irish and dur
ing his< entire administration he
fought. shoulder to shoulder with Mr..
Gladstone for Home Rule and in
many other instances the two co.
operated. The life Of Gladstone
which Mr.. Morley produced more
than fifteen years later has been re-
garded by some as his most notable
book.
Serving again as Secretary for
ireland from 1892 to 1905, Mr.. Nor
ley, . few years later, was appointed
to the still more responsible post Of
Secretary Of State for India, in the
Campbell Bannerman cabinet. It waa
largely due to his far-sighted policy
that difiiculties in the administration
Of India during the sviceroyslty Of
Lord Curzon were smoothed out. The
mere fact that Mr.. Morley was thu
most distinguished statesman who
had ever been called upon TO presidk
over the destinies Of India had .
salutary effect 1t . time, when there
was great unrest. Throughout his
five years At the head. Of. NE India
Office, he had to deal with anch per-
picking problems - partition Of Ben

and civil auth h6rties IN the scheme

Growth Of rubber imports due largely
to increased use Of the automobile.
Exports Of rubber manufactures
have showed large increase.

Announcement of an organiza-
ton of rubber manufactu1 rs Of
the United States ITO look after
the problems Of rubber manufac-
turer and to especially prevent any
artificial regulation of prices"
lends interest to some figures COM
piled for the Trade Record Of The
National City Bank of New York
showing the tremendous growth
in rubber consumption in the
United States in the last dozen
years and the simultaneous fall in
price.
Rubber importations, says the
Trade Record, which amounted to
only 100000 pounds in 1911, will
show total of approximately
W5.O00,000 pounds in the fiscal year
which ends with the current
month or more than 10 times as
much in the fiscal year 1928 as in
1911. On the other hand, prices
at the present time are far below
those Of 1911. in which year the
average import price was $l06 per
pound, in the fiscal year 1922 15c
per pound, and in the 9 available
months of the fiscal year 1928
averaged l7c per pound.

OUR RUBBER IMPORTS IN 1928
auns.x MAKE NEW HIGH RECORD

The quantity of rubber brought
into the United States in the last
dozen years is 4,254,000,O0O pounds,
and the value nearly 100000, 900.
The imports of the fiscal year 1923
are larger in quantity than those
OF any other year in the history of
the rubber trade, having been ap-
proximately 775,U00OO0 pounds
against 56S,ooo,OOo in 1922, and
$50, 100000 in the high record year
1920. This tremendous growth is
largely due to the increased use
Of the automobile, which utilizes
fully three-fourths of the rub
Der imported into the United
States, and as this country i'm
ports fully three-fourths of the
rubber produced in the world we
may assume, says the Trade Rec
ord, that the American automobile
utilizes over one-half Of the RIB.
Der of the world Exports of rub
Der manufactures have grown from
100000 in 1910 to Approximately
$36,000,000 in 1923.

MELLON EN- TOUR

Secretary of the Treasury Mellon
hopes to make his trip to Europe
simply vacation outing for himself
and family. If he has his wish his
sojourn abroad will be in striking
contrast to the visits of prominent
foreigners to this country. Almost
invariably those callers have COM
bined propaganda with pleasure, and
have accepted every invitation to
address our citizens and instruct
them in their proper attitude toward
allied debts to the United States and
other subjects Of common interest.
How would our own officials be re-
ceied if they undertook to return the
compliments Fortunately they have
better taste and, like Secretary Mel
Ion, mind their own business while
accepting the hospitality of other ma
tions.

Americas great industrial organiza-

learn that merely because business is
big is no indication that it is unde-
sirable 1t must become more diff
cult for political buccaneers to carry
with their constituents by attacking
business simpy because it is big.
Mr.. White spoke the truth in re-
cent address when he said: at would
seem that the relationship between
business and the nations prosperity
is SO apparent that only the feeble
minded would fight business"
"There exists in our country class
of short-sighted and long haired in
dividuals who seem to feel that they
were created especially to combat
anything that savors of business, and
the bigger the business the more
zeal they show in fighting it,
"The short-sightednes of this pol
icy is manifest in the increasing
number of laws calculated to hamper
Individual and business progress and
to prevent outstanding commercial
success such as we call big business. y
