TARIFF LAW

Tho present tariff law has nc

has secured an abundant revenue
and been productive OF nm abound
Ing prosperity. Under II tho coun-
try has had very largo export
and import trade. A constant re-
vision OF tho tariff by the congress-
Is disturbing and harmful. The
present law contains an elastic
provision authorizing the president
TO increase or decrease present
schedules not In excess OF 30 per
centum TO meet tho difference In
cost OF production at homo and
abroad. This does not. TO my mind
warrant rewriting OF tho whole
law. but does mean. and will DO nc

Seldom do we accumulate any quanti-
ty of Black Diamond Lump. Orders
invariably have to be placed on file
to be filled as the coal becomes avail
able. Allbecause the public has found
Black Diamond the best raw lump coal
on this market. Guaranteed to con-
tain less than 40 ash-less than any
othercoal on this market contains; g.
800 heat units per pound no other
available foreign or domestic coal pro-
duces equal hest. Now, due to com
bination of favorable circumstances,
Black Diamond Lump Coal is avail
able. But the demand that an over
night cold snap would create would
wipe out the accumulated surplus. So,
if you wish supply, we advise your
ordering Immediately.

POUGHKEEPSTE, Ill, Aug.
16.-For the first time in local,
history the property of the
Women's Christian Temperance
Union here has been put on the
real estate tax assessment
books.
One of the grounds on which
the assessment is made, it is
understood, is that the State
tax department decided the
building is not entitled to ex-
emption as it is being used for
rental purposes, and as the
W. G. T. U. is not a charitable
or religious organization, but
was formed principally for sup
preston of the liquor traffic,
and this object having been at
tanned by the passage of the
Volstead act the organization is
"superfluous."

peace and protection. It is a boon
TO the nation.
Navy Must Be Free.
The amount asked for seems all
the smaller when we remember that,
in addition to the home coast, the
army must protect the Panama
canal, Porto Rico, Hawaii and the
Philippines. In this we are not un-
mindful of the navy's role in the
war. But the fleet is not supposed
to defend the coast, in. the strict
sense Of the word. The fleet must
not be tied to the beach. 1t must
be absolutely free TO move. It ex-
lists to carry the war beyond our
coast line. It must link us UP with
our foreign possessions, keep the
lines of communication clear and
transport naval and military forces
from point to point The army
must have the means of \ strictly
local defense. The navy must be
free to leave the coast to meet the
enemy's fleet at sea.
1t follows logically that the navy,
must also have a strong air fleet
1t is a modern requirement. The
surface fleet must be supplemented
with forces above and below-air-
planes and submarines. This is the
new era. Rear AdrIiral Moffatt has
clearly demonstrated our need of a
naval air force. It is totally made.
Quate at present Less than 10 per
cent Of the naval appropriation goes
for airplanes. We need big carriers
at once. And every fast merchant
steamer that flies the American
flag must be ready to be trans
formed into an auxiliary carrier N
time Of war.
Need for Carriers.
This will be clear to the Law
reader when he realizes that bat.
tleshipS, cruisers and destroyers
can only carry a. few planes
never more than two or three and
in most cases but one. The fleet
that has few carriers will therefore
be at the mercy Of a fleet that is
supplied with q powerful carrier
squadron backed by a strong mer.
chant marine. The latter, with
mer, will command the air and win
the next battle on the sea. There
is no doubt about it.
With the facts proven beyond
cavil, army and naval officers are

try in emphasizing the crying need
Of powerful air forces. We have
stopped building battleships, we
have cut the army and navy to
the bone in material personnel.
Congress and the people must now
realize that a new force has come
into the world. We may cut out
many Of the old weapons, but we
must supply modern ones to re-
place them. Air power Is not
only the key to national defense,
but 1t is a commercial necessity.
Europe. Japan, Russia and Canada
are alive to the situation. Even
China is taking notice, and when
a stable government 10 established
in Pekin the world may be forced
completely to change it's policy to-
ward the Chinese people If they de.
eide fully to utilize air power for
self-protection.
The United States must wake up.
