DEFEAT Of SUBSIDY
. HELPED BY LONDON

Commenting on the defeat Of the
ship subsidy bill by the Senate OPP
ponents of that measure, the London
Times says
Bound by hard facts to earn their
living by the sea, managers of ship
ping in this country have looked with
some anxiety on what was proposed
IN the United States within the scope
of the ship subsidy bill, but they
have been scrupulOusly correct in any
comment they allowed themselves 60
make. They have not ventured TO
criticize and proposal of the United
States to substitute her mercantile
marine. That, they have recognized,
was no affair of anyone outside that
country, and the most that they nave
done is to call attention to certain OBJ
vious results of any attempts by
legislation specially to favor. nation
al. owned ships in American ports
in as much as such a policy woufC
have been equivalent to putting diff.
ficulties in the way of the vessels Of
other nations"
Of course this is cam of the mos
British variety. 1t is not ~recalle.
that British shipping managers wer'
silent while the ship subsidy bill wa.
under debate. And where theil
tongues were mute, their currency
was vocal in the anti-ship subsidy
propaganda which deluged this coun
try from the time the bill was frs
suggested by President Harding un
til it was finally gassed by the oppc
sition. Furthermore, British ship
pers, and British business interest
generally, have always had plent
of spokesman in this country when
ever & tariff law, or a ship aid lar
was up for discussion, in the rank
I of the Democratic party. That part
would be perfectly satisfied TO le

Greater expenditure in public ed
ucation is needed, DR.. Dunn declared,
and supported her statements with
figures showing the purchasing pow
er of the dollar today is such that
larger sums must be expended to
achieve the same results as was OBJ
tanned a few years ago. She argued
against the cheap teacher, declaring
that a cheap teacher was worse than
a bad egg, because it was not neces-
sary to eat the egg. The statement
of President Madison that popular
government without public education
is a prelude to either a farce or a
tragedy was vigorously supported by
DR.. Dunn.
Professor Cunningham pointed out
the increased cost Of operating
schools during the 18 years he has
been connected with them. Where
the taxes were formerly A and 5 per
cent of the assessed valuation, 1t mas
been raised to Z and 8 per cent. Cost
of operation of schools had reached
unexpected heights during the past
few years, with the exception of
teacher salaries, he stated. Among
the states, Montana ranks fifteenth IN
the salaries paid for teachers, n Il
is impossible to secure the right KIND
of teachers at the salaries offered.
Change in Montana tax laws has
reduced the income of schools, while
the expenses had increased, he stat
ed. A suggestion that the method
of assessing valuations OF property
might bring about a remedy or the
present situation was made by Mr.
Cunningham.

origin, although he. was a Russian
citizen.
Monsignor Butchkavitch was a con-
spicuous figure in the trial of the
Catholic prelates and priests at which,
he appeared baldheaded, rosy-faced
and beApectacled, and ne bore HIM
self with marked serenity through
cut that ordeal, which resulted In
death sentences for himself and
Archbishop Zepliak and prison terms
for their Is fellow prisoners.
Constantine Butchkavitch, vicar
general of the Roman Catholic church
in Russia, was sentenced TO death on
March &c, after he and 10 other pre-
lates, including Archbishop Zepliak,
had been found guilty of opposing the
Soviet government. The Russian CEN
trail executive committee, meeting
last Thursday night to consider APP
peals made in behalf of the eccle-
siastics, denied clemency in the case
Of Monsignor Butchkavitch, asserting
that ne had fused his position as a
priest to carry on a direct and active
state treason" The committee at the
same time committed to ten years
Imprisonment the death sentence I'M
posed on the archbishop.
News that Monsignor Butchka-
witch would have to pay the extreme
penalty created a stir in many lands.
Soviet officials since last Friday had
~prcfessed ignorance as to the final
outcome of the case, and last Satur-
day afternoon Commissar of Justice
Kurski told correspondents that the
death sentence had not yet been car
ried out.
The prelates were charged IN gen.
eral with carrying on a widespread
propaganda against the Russian gov
eminent and were alleged to nave IN
cited the people against the Commun-
list regime. Maxim Litvinoff was
quoted as saying that the action
against the defendants was political
rather than religious. In reaching
its decision to commute the sentence
given Archbishop zepliak, the central
executive committee said it had de-
cided to modify the decree of the
court because a certain backward
element of the Catholic citizens OF
Soviet Russia" might consider the
sentence as directed against the
priests and their religion.

States to continue to sell her vast
supplies of products" continues the
Times, "since one of the chief means
of paying for these, that of sharing
in transport services, will still be open
to the free competition of all the
maritime nations of the world"
British ships are right now carry
ing a greater portion of our freights
than are American ships. British
ships will undoubtedly have a COM
plete monopoly of that business with
in the next few vars, unless some
thing is done to take ARE of our own
vessels. Britain has handicapped US
before through such monopoly, and
| there is no reason to believe she will
not do so again at the first oppor-
tunity. Furthermore, Britain sub
sidizes her ships, and she jealousy
guards those ships from the "freS
competition of all the maritime ma
lions of the world" A foreign ship
is not a welcomed visitor to British
shores. The question now before The
people of the United States is, car
that which has been left undone b.
done with regard to our merchant

had been very high. Each Of these
periods has been followed by a long
period of falling prices. Following
the world war, during which time
prices Of farm products and other
commodities advanced to very high
levels, the drop in farm product
values was sudden, while prices of
other commodities continued to rise
for nearly a year. He pointed out
that by 1921 farm product prices had
dropped to almost pre-war prices,
while prices of other commodities
were still about so per cent above
the pre-war price. Since then prices
of other commodities have taken a
slight advance.
In comparing prices, Professor Cur
rier pointed out that there has recent
ly been an advance Of prices on farm
products, but there is still a spreaC
of about so per cent between the
prices the farmer receives for his
products and what he must pay for
other commodities. This means that
the purchasing power of the farmers
dollar is about go cents, resulting in
the purchasing power of the farmer
betting nearly wiped out. This condi-
ton, the speaker stated, must be
overcome before general and enduring
prosperity can be realized.
Mr.. Currier then discussed the pos
sibilities of the equalizing of prices
of the farm products and those COM
moditieS he must purchase. He dis
cussed production and the bearing it
has upon the price, together with
the foreign products that come into
the country. These all have a bearing
upon the conditions under which farm
products are marketed and upon the
price, and he expressed the opinion
that farm prices cannot go up, but
that other prices must come down
to bring about real prosperity.
The necessity of business men tax
l ing an interest in the welfare of Thu
farmer, their own prosperity depend
ing upon it, and they should stud!
the economic conditions. Dair,
farming as a business was discussed
in which the important features nee
y essary to make it profitable wer
pointed out. The success of tn

: in point of quality was pointed OF

{ this section for grain farming out
