Venomous Propaganda

The danger to our institutions from
radical!sm does not arise from the
fact that there is at present an e!e-
ment Of radicals IN our country of
such imposing strength n numbers
as openly and directly to threaten the
overthrow of the existing order. To
be sure. the number of such mon has
enormously increased within the last
few years. and their activity in the
dissemination OF their doctrines, both
by he spoken and written word. has
been tremendously enlarged. On the
news stands in practically al of our
cities a be seen their periodicals
with Elaring headlines that radlate
maledictions against every institution
Of government and society. The ciaEs
hatred that Is engendered by these
publications. the disIOyalty to the
government and the SETTLING discon-
tent, are beyond all calculation. The
business mar who secs these radical
sheets. when he pauses to buy an eve
ming paper as no hurries homoward,
does not accord to them a passing
thought. Let him not make the mis-
take OF thinking that, because these
venomous shafts of political Ishmnel.
ism DO not touch him, they do not
pierce and poison anybody else. They
are read in various languages and i'm
pl.citly accepted by hundreds Of thou.
sands-perhaps millions Of people al
together. To get an idea Of the kind
OF political pabulum that is being fed
to an element OF laboring men. to the
unemployed and. particularly, to the
foreign born. It would be well for the
business and professional man and
the steady. conservative working man
occasionally to take home with them
a copy of one of these periodicals.

General Business Conditions

UNDERLYING conditions in general business
- have not changed in the past thirty days. From
trade sources it is learned that advance orders in
dictate increasing confidence in the continuance of
good business for some time. Most manufacturing
industries are operating at close to capacity, whole.
sale trade is good, and retail trade in dry goods and
related lines has shown much less than the nor.
NAL seasonal dullness. Building and construction
are at record levels for the season. Increased activ.
ity in the manufacture Of agricultural implements
and in other industries the product of which must
be sold TO farmers is based on the improvement in
the agricultural situation which has taken place
in Pecent months.
While there is as yet little evidence OF oyer-order,
ing or duplication of orders in the expectation that
they will be scaled the excellent outlook presents
a temptation in this direction. Such practices pro
duco an appearance of false activity and lead to
speculative price advances. No factor contributed
more than this to the severity of the depression %

The Gratifying Increase

TIIE ICREASE of nearly twenty per cent in cx.
l. ports since the new tariff law became opera
tive has not only COMPOUNDED the enemies and OPP
ponents of protection, but it has astounded it's
friends. Republicans felt confident that some in
crease would be recorded, but they did not dream
that such Il remarkable showing would be made
in SO short n time.
1t was the stock argument of those opposed to
the bill that it would seriously curtail the export
trade, due principally to the fact, as they viewed
it, that imports would be walled out and foreign
nations would consequently stop buying so largely
from America. Here is how the first four months
of foreign selling puts that statement to blush:
Month 1922 1929
October ..............$ 343,O 900 S B71, 600, 900
November 212,000, 900 $50, 900, 900
December ............ 296,O0O,0OO $4,000 900
January .............. 49, 100000 $3.50, OOO,O 900
Total Four Months 81 ,212, 000,O0 0 $1,434, 000, 900
This is a total increase in the brief space of one
third year of 500, 100000 in value, and since prices
were not so high in the 1929 period, it is evil
dent that the increase in quantity of exports was
even more marked. At the present rate of in
crease there seems little reason now to doubt that
our exports will reach $500, 900, 900 for the first
Il months Of the new law, and with imports esti-
mated at between three and three and a quarter
billions our favorable balance of trade will reach
somewhere between a billion and n quarter and a
billion and a half of dollars. This seems certain
notwithstanding the fact that the purchasing pow
er of Europe will be seriously curtailed by the
situation in Germany and Austria and Russia, and
economies instituted in other purchasing countries,
added to which is the fact that the policy of tariff
protection has become well.night universal, Great
Britain herself, long the leader in free trade, hav.
ing returned to the protective policy.
1t is reported that the Democrats are heart.sick
over the situation. They had planned to begin an
aggressive campaign against the tariff as soon as
congress had adjourned, to be kept up throughout
the campaign of 1924. They had quite frankly adj,
mitted that the tariff would once more be their
trump card in the presidential fight, and now they
are discovering it to be the deuce of an off suit
They were positive that our export trade with Eu

18Th INF. BRIGADE
HEADQUARTERS GO TO
DEvENS JULY 21ST

Two weeks from today the men,
bers of the seth Infantry Brigade
Headquarters Company will leave
Augusta for Camp Devens where
they will hold their usual Is day
tour of duty. The change from a
quartermaster corps to the head
quarters company has also meant a
great change both in duties and
equipment of thel company.
On July IS. three days before the
company leaves Augusta twelve
trucks and automobiles, manned by
members of the company will leave
for Devens. The trucks will pick
the men of the service company at
Portland and these men will drive
trucks through under the supervision
of the men from the headquarters
company. The list of trucks and cars
Liberty trucks, three G.. M. C. trucks,
one Liberty gasoline tank truck, one
Dodge truck and two Dodge tour
ing cars.
When the remainder Of the COM
pany leavesrthe city they will carry
with them on the train, twelve mo-
torcycles and sidecars which they
will man while in camp. The COM
pany acts as a communicating unit
in it's new form, and beside having
supervision of both the trucks and
the motorcycles there are openings
for telephone operators. wireless OPP
orators, a typographical draughtsman
and many other lines. Several of
these jobs carry with them special
rating which means more pay while
in camp for those who qualify.
Another thing in which the MEM
bers of tine company are fortunate is
that they have as cook, Manley Has

establishes titles to many lots pre-
viously sold from unrecorded plans.
The development Of Ocean Point by
the Newbert Agency dates back to
April IA, 1922, when all of the real es-
tate at Ocean Point owned by the es-
tate of DIR. Leander ]. Croker was
conveyed by his heirs to Elmer E.
Newbert of Augusta. This conveyance
is recorded in the Lincoln county reg
lister of Deeds office.
The E. E. Newbert Agency has long
been a constructive force in land and
building enterprises in Augusta. Its
first big work consisted of the OPEN
ing up of the Ballard Field. so called
and the financing and building of 10
houses on Davenport and Stone streets,
in 1911 which added $500 to Angus
ta's real estate valuation and has since
returned $4,000 taxes to the city
trea sury.
Its next achievement was the New
lands development, started in 1921, on
Riverside Drive when 10 new houses
were constructed and nearly 200 lots
sold. More than $4,000 has been ex-
pended there since November, 1921.
The opening up of Ocean Point this
spring and summer sets high water
mark in the company's activities as
the Ocean Point property consists of
sos lots covering over one hundred
acres. Streets have been cleared on
the principal thoroughfares shown on
plans and this will be followed soon
with turnpiking.
The Fourth Of July officially started
the sale of lots and number of trans
fers took place. The coming weeks
are destined to see brisk sale of the
many desirable lots the representatives
Of the company are showing.
The Ocean Point Association which
looks after the interests Of the proper
ty owners and supervises improve
ments are cooperating with the New
bert Agency in whom 1t has the ut
most confidence.
The lots are priced fairly and will
be sold on easy terms.
The booklets and plans including
price lists can be had for the asking at

Fire Destroys House
on Riverside Drive

A telephone call was received at
o'clock Friday afternoon at the Hart
ford fire station for assistance to
fight fire at the buildings Of Eugene
Parlin on Riverside Drive where the
Church Hill road intersects. The
chemical truck was sent to the scene
of the blaze, but found when they got
there that the flames Lad gained such
Roadway that little could be done to
save the main house. This building
which was a story and half house,
was completely Quilted with only a
small part of the roof left unburned.
The pumper drew water from q
brook and the firemen with the aid
of the neighbors who had gathered
to assist, succeeded in keeping the
flames from small garage and a
barn. 1t could not be learned what
was the cause Of the fire, and the loss
is estimated at several thousand dol
lars. The Augusta apparatus return
ed at 4.30 o'clock.
