Editorial Comment
A Ten Years Retrospect
(The washington Post


Ten years ago today the first shot
was fired in the world war The
bombardment of Belgrade was begun
by Austro- Hungarian forces on July
20. 1914. By August tina great pow
ers of Europe were at war.
1t has been the most important de-
Cade in history. The consequences
of the war are extending far into the
future. The world has not only
changed. but is still changing on ac-
count of the events of the last ten
years.
Peace was proclaimed Ave years
after the war started, but it was not
true peace. Although four empires
fell, their peoples remained. The
task of adjusting the relations of all
the nations engaged in the war. so
that peace will prevail has proved
insoluble up to this time. At this
hour n conference of the victorious
powers is in session, striving to find
some method of restoring peace and
friendship between France and Ger
many.
The Treaty Of Versailles set up the
the reparation commission and en-
powered France TO remain fifteen
years on the Rhine. with the proviso
that this term could be extended in
definitely under certain conditions.
One of the stipulations of the treaty
is that the Cologne bridgehead shall
be turned back to Germany by Jan
uary /. 1925. if the treaty has been
faithfully executed. 1t is now re-
ported that the German ENJOYS to the
London conference will demand, as
one of the conditions of Inaugural
ton of the Dawes plan, that the Brit
ish forces at Cologne shall be with
drawn. This presents serious
problem to the British government.
as it has not yet obtained an engage
ment by France to withdraw from
the Ruhr, and apparently Premier
Herriot Is unable to enter into such
an undertaking. Withdrawal from

tries OF which were undergoing re-
of our imports consisted of crude ma
terials for use, and manufactures for
further use in manufacturing. It Is
particularly noteworthy that the
more than $4,000, 100000 in imports
for 1920 produced but s323, 000, 900 of
customs revenue. The imports Of
food-stuffs that year. crude and pre-
pared, totaled over $500, 100000 and
this was OF great weight in expedit-
Ing the passage of the so-called En-
Urgency Tariff law, which was vetoed
by President Wilson and later signed
by President Harding. In 1922 these
groups OF goods aggregated but $685.
100000 in value.
Industry responded to the Repub-
lican tariff law in 1923, imports of
crude and partly manufactured ma
terials showing an increase of $751;
100000 over 1922, and the exports of
manufacturers increasing from ST.
I'll. 0o0, 900 in 1922 to 1895, 100000 in
1923. That the tariff law was not
prohibitive Is indicated by the IN
creased imports. Exports OF food
stuHs during 1923 and 1924 showed
decline compared with previous
years, but still substantial increase
over the pre-war year. Since the
bulk of these goods go to Europe. the
fact that European countries have
been getting back to normal food
production has accounted for this.
The assertion that these food exports,
compared with 1914. are value in
creases, and not volume Increases. is
not borne out by the official statistics.
which show huge volume increases.
The average ad valorem rate OF
duty on all imports. has been less I'M
der the Republican law than under
the Democratic tariff law which was
in operation nine months OF 1884,
and the same is true respecting the
average rate OF duty on dutiable
goods. Increases in our trade with
the Latin Americans over pre-war
years deserve emphasis likewise that
with Asia and Oceania. These sug
gest new fields for even greater ex-
mansion.

Premature Old Age Of Women

1t Is no secret that so many women

ailments is evidenced by the tagging
step, headaches. backache and nerv-

In 1919 by Calvin Coolidge when he
was governor of Massachusetts,
Many of his admirers claim that this
proclamation is a literary gem, not
only because of its simplicity of
