terribly extravagant, their savings

1t is frequently stated that the
United States owe Their vast wealth
to the possession of their great natu
raj resources, to the possession of &
fruitful agricultural plain, extensive
forests, r'ch mines, etc. That expla'
nation is fallacious. Every student Of
American economics is aware that the
bulk of Americas vast income is fur
nished, not by the farms, mines, and
forests, but by the factories and work
shops.
The United States are foremost in
the world, not only by the productivity
of theft wheatfields, cotton fields, for
ests, coal mines, iron mines, ETC., but
also by the output of their manufac-
turing industries.
With the existing arrangements
this country can produce 100000
tons Of steel per year. That figure
has never been reached. The United
States can produce at least 100000
tons per year. They produce far
more than half of worlds steel and of
products made of steel. Among other
things they produce about 90 per
cent of worlds motor cars, both in
their own country and in branch es-
adjustments abroad.
In the city of New York alone vast
lily more building takes place than in
the whole of the United Kingdom.
The textile industries of the Republic
consume considerably more cotton
than the whole of this country. In
the production Of goods made from
copper, brass, rubber, wood, leather,
etc., Americas superiority is over
whelming. In view Of these facts
Cobden's prophecy: England is, and
always will remain, the workshop of
the world" is ridiculous.
Why are the Americans foremost
in the world, not only in the output of
food and raw pr9jucts but also in
that of manufactured goods? The
reason is obvious to all who are &C.
quainted with economic conditions on
both sides of the Atlantic.
England, the former stronghold of
individualism and efficiency, has be-
come q stronghold of Socialism. Ow-
ing to Socialist inflence ca canny has
become universal. The suicidal policy
of restricting output has led to hos
tility to labour-saving machinery. The
result is that the average American
produces as much as three English
workers.
Goods produced must be consumed.
They are consumed and enjoyed chief

COOLIDGE WILL
CALL MEETING
To TALK ARMS
Another Conference to
Discuss Submarines
And Airplane Limita-
tons

Washington-prcsident Coolidge
according to apparently trustworthy
information which reaches me from
inside sources, is planning a great po-
liiical coun on the eve OF the national
convention. Mr.. Coolidge and Mr..
Hughes are seeking the assent OF the
European powers TO another limitation
-of-arms conference. this on 70 deal
with the construction Of aircraft and
submarines. Thus far the reaction 20
their suggestions are said TO be favor
able but very general. The need for
such a conference is obvious. Moth
ing else can check the extravaganza
OF the European nations which are
spending mony out OF all proportion
TO their revenues for this type OF war
material. My informants declare that
Mr.. Coolidge and his political advis-
ers are convinced it would be fine
political strategy to on the
eve of the national convention that
such a conference had been agreed to
by the leading powers Of the world
and to hold the conference between
the nominating convention and the
election. They hope thereby to en-
list the great body Of peace lovers
under the banner OF Calvin Coolidge.
Reposts from inside sources are
to the effect that Mr.. Coolidge is
seriously contemplating reading the
riot act to the progressives in con-
gress, especially those who are hold
ing up the reorganization of the SEN
ate by refusing to vote for senator
Cummins for chairman of the inter
state commerce committee. Thus far
the progressives are standing pat for
senator Couzens. although many of
them predict that when the break does
come it will result in the election OF
the ranking Democrat. Senator Smith
of South Carolina. The wiser of the
Democrats are by no means anxious
for this empty honor. They realize
it will mean responsibility without
power. The indications are that the
sole result of the deadlock will be a
situation in which it will be impos-
sible to pass any railroad legislation
during this congress-.
Secretary Hughes has put his
shoulder to the wheel in an effort to

There would have been little such
