produced at lower prices in coun-
tries where in general costs of pro-
duction are much lower than in Cuba
and the United States on account of
inferior wages and of other factors
to which we need not refer. And as
we should aim to pay good salaries
to our laborers, we are obliged to
protect our respective industries and
agriculture against such competition.
SHOULD good judgment prevail in
the negotiations which some day will
no doubt be carried on for the i'm
provement of the present recipr ocity
treaty, and should the business men
of the United States and of Cuba
make themselves heard, it is certain
that the two nations would derive
great benefit therefrom."
Commerce Figures Cited.
The Cuban ambassador, in citing
figures in connection with the COM
merce between the United States and
Cuba, declared that in 1923, Cuba ex-
ported 1896, $4,000 in various prod
ucts, principally raw sugar, ores and
total of s1S0,231 ,000 largely of foods
and other manufactured articles He
explained this big trade balance
however, by saying that an accumu
lation of stocks from previous years
dating large Indebtedness required
importations and the necessity of lqui-
dating large Indebtedness, which
the merchants of Cuba had been un-
able to pay off during the crisis in
the years 1921 and 1922, required a
sharp curtailing of buying. He pointed
out that the investment of S1,25O-
100000 by United States interests
necessitating the expectation of large
sums in interest and dividends, re-
quired a favorable trade balance
In 1928 Cuba ranked second in the
imports of the United States and
sixth in the exports out of some
eighty odd countries

Reciprocity Agreement With u. S.
Dr. Cosne de la Torriente Pleads for Closer CONNER
cIdi Relations Bet,oeen T,Uo Nations-Makes
address at Chamber Of Commerce Banquet

A plea for closeS commercial rela-
tions between the United States and
Cuba was made by DR.. Cosme de la
Torriente, Cuban ambassador, in an
address at a banquet celebrating the
Inauguration of the Cuban Chamber
of Commerce in New York City last
week
Referring to the treaty Of reciproc-
ity between this country and Cuba,
the Cuban envoy forecast a modifi-
cation of the treaty at some future
date and urged that in the consider
alton of changes, that careful scru-
tiny be given to the interlinking of
interests of the two countries.
When the protection of American
agriculture and industry is dis
cussed," he said, cit should be re-
membered that the Surest way of pro-
tecting them is by maintaining great
foreign markets for their products,
and there is no better market for
them than Cuba, provided, that in
stead of having to overcome difficult
ties for the importation of our pro-
ducts, principally of our sugar, the
latter are aided and stimulated by a
reasonable tariff, which while favor
ing the maintenance of the American
sugar production, does not tend to
destroy it's principal competitor, the
cane sugar industry of Cuba.
And when changes in Cuba's tar
iff are under consideration, we should
bear in mind the convenience and
the necessity not only of protecting
those Cuban industries which may
require and merit protection, but
also of Offering greater degree of
protection to such products of the
United States as are likely to encoun-
ter severe competition in the mar
kets of Cuba from similar articles

States constitution is passed permit
ting the taxation of income from fu-
ture issues of public bonds, it will be
necessary for legislatures of various
states to ratify the measuse. For
this reason, quick action in Congress
is essential in order that state legis-
latures which are in session or which
will be in session in the near future
may be able to act on the measure
and put an end to the present OBJ
solete system which is an invitation
for the reckless piling up of debt on
one hand and lawful tax lodging on
the other hand.
1t would seem as if Republicans,
Democrats and Progressives would
be on common ground when it comes
to measure of this kind which would
assure in the future that every per-
son would pay his share of income
tax. Is it not possible for Congress
to cut out politics and get down to
business on this measure?

TAX EXEMPTION FARCE
MUST END

Will Congress adopt Secretary
Melons program for tax reduction
which includes reduction in income
tax and the doing away with future
issues of tax-exempt bonds?
The President and the people are
in favor of tax reduction. The poll
ticians, through their blocs and par
ties in Congress, are pulling and
hauling to try to gain personal pre-
stige through delays and log rolling
in the tax reduction program.
A constitutional amendment to do
away with tax-exempt securities pas
sed the House OF Representatives last
winter but died at expiration of Con-
gless. 1t is now necessary to pass 1t
again. This takes valuable time and
shows waste and expense resulting
where public officials play politics in
stead of expediting the business of
the nation.
At the present time it is estimated
that the income from approximately
$50, 100000 in capital invested III
government tax-empt securities, es-
capes all forms of taxation The fact
that cities, counties, states and ma
ton can issue tax-exmpt bonds draw
ing a low rate of interest has carsed
a reckless increase in public debt and
has furnished the loop-hole for bill
lions of dollars to escape taxation.

Fraternity. He also was member
of the M. w. A. Camp at Ellsworth
which he joined over twenty-five
years ago.
Agreeable to his request made
some time ago, he was laid to rest
in Spokane where he felt that he had
more friends and acquaintance than
any other place in the world, who
were acquired by his touch with his
students and their parents during the
years of his work in the school there.
His last days Of trial We're softened
by the presence of his only sister
who tenderly cared for him up to the
last. Funeral services We're held IN
Spokane last Saturday.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

The justice of penalizing individual
carelessness when it results In fire
damage to the property Of others, Is
effectively urged in the following
brief buss.t1n, sued by the Indus
trial Commission Of Wisconsin:
"A crook robs national bank OF
one. million dollars. The entire po-
lice power of the state and nation
are put to work to apprehend him.
"A man deliberately sets fire to a
grain elevator in which one million
dollars worth of grain is stored.
Some fire marshal, alone and unaided,
investigates this fire in the hope OF
discovering sufficient evidence to
bring the guilty man to trial before a
jury strongly prejudiced against
cireunstantial evidence
