THE IMPORTANCE OF
FOREIGN TRADE

For many decades we have pro-
duced surplus Of products of the
farm that has been sold in foreign
countries. AS long as we continue
70 produce surplus above domestic
consumption, 1t is a prime necessity
that there be market for 1t. 1t is
true that this surplus is but frac-
ton of our total production. Never
theless, it exerts an effect upon the
price Of the entire output which is
entirely disproportionate to it's rela-
tive size. A country store-keeper may
sell hundred straw hats at a fair
margin Of profit, but the twenty which
he may not be able to sell at all will
wipe out the profit on the entire
stock The same thing is true of
wheat, OF corn. OF any product OF
the farm.
1t is true that we might exist with.
out foreign trade. that we might
depend exclusively upon domestic
consumption. To do that. however.
would require complete reorganiza.
ton Of our whole commercial and
Industrial structure. reorganization
which would require years of time
and which would entail losses beyond
calculation The more reasonable
alternative Is to take steps toward the
restoration of a normal foreign mar.

THE United States have
something like ten times the
number Of telephones that
Europe has. That is fine
another evidence of our
greater prosperity, or is it our
greater progress? But the
United States have an annual
FIRE loss ten times that, of all
Europe. That is not SO fine.
While we exhibit great pros
perity along many lines, in
other ways we are undermin-
ing our resources to an ex-
tent that portends a great
national privation in some not
far distant day which is un-
known to the present genera
ton. We must bend our
efforts to overcome these ma
tional shortcomings.

CRUISER TRENTON

NORFOLK, Va, Oct. 2S.-The cause
Of the explosion aboard the cruiser
Trenton resulting in the loss Of IA
lives and injury of dozen other sail
ors, probably never will be known.
Navy authorities expressed the belief
today that the board of inquiry will
meet dead wall"
Friction Is Cause.
ANY findings" they said, can be
be little more than guess work"
The most probable theory now adj
vanced is that the three charges OF old
powder from the magazine of the
Trenton "let go" when brought up to
the 10-inch gun in the forward turret
thru friction caused by contact with
tho hosting apparatus.
No more deaths were reported by
the naval hospital today. The condi-
ton Of Seaman Thomas H. Bailey, of
Erie, Pa, was good It was said and
while not out of danger. hope is en-.
tertained for his recovery. Four other
dangerous cases are being watched
closely by naval hospital physicians.

FIELD JODLESS
Figures Are Presented
to Sub-District Meet

Especial to the Daily worker)
COLLlNSVlLLE, H., Oct. %.
The figures submitted by the
secretary of Sub-District No. 7,
United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, whose convention is now in
session here, show that so per
cent of the membership is out
of employment.
The figures are: 400 work
ing, 4,600 unemployed.
The great majority of those regis
tered as employed are working only
two and three days per week.
Discuss Jobless Relief.
A picture of the misery of these
workers is painted by the discussion
during the first day of the session
centering around proposals for unem-
ployment relief.
Many of these miners with large
families have been unable to get a
single days work in the mines since
last March or April Winter is near
and they face it without clothes, food
or fuel.
Considerable criticism Of the last
district convention and officials was
voiced because of the failure to init.
ate a program of relief.
What is to become of us?" was
the question asked by almost every
speaker who took part in the debate,
and there is no Disgusting the fact
that death from exposure and starva-
ton faces hundreds Of miners and
their families this winter.
Quote from DUNES Speech.
One passage from the speech Of
William F. Dunno, made last night in
the Miners Hall, is being quoted
among the miners with considerable
approval this morning. He said:
you have thousands of jobless
miners. You marched on non-union
mines in West Virginia. Why don't
you march on the Illinois state cap
ital and demand Of Len Small, this
great friend of labor who has en-
dorsed Coolidge, that he spend few
million dollars for relief Of the miners
as well as for hard roads for the
relief of tourists?"

Senator William E. Borah and
his committee investigating
campaign expenditures Of the
capitalist political parties were
told today by Frank P. Walsh,
that the inquiry thus far had
only penetrated the fringe" OF
LaFoIlette's charge of a huge
republican ''sIush fund" to
secure the election of the Cool
idge- Dawes ticket.
On this fringe" now appears
the names of the principal re-
publican money raisers in the
state of Pennsylvania, who told
the committee that they had al
ready taken in $350,000 in the
fifty-three counties outside the
Pittsburgh district, that they
were still hard at it and ex-
pected to get more before the
election.
Grundy at the Helm.
In charge of the republican collec
tions, according to the testimony, is
Joseph r. Grundy, wealthy yarn man
ufacturer of Bristol, and he has beer
assisted by Edward T. Stotesbury, O.
the Philadelphia branch of Morgan
and company, w. H. FolwelI, weaver
of wooden goods in Pennsylvania ans
the owner of department stores il

president of the Baldwin Locomotiv,
works.
Vauclain, 1t developed, did not d.
any of the actual collecting. altho his
name appeared as a member of tn,
executive committee, headed by Grun
dy, which brought in the money. His
personal contribution to the repub
lican fund was $1,000, but the com
mittee brought out during cross
examination that he had given $40,

of the Southern Pacific railroad, t.
