BRITISH EXCITED
 AT STAND OF ]. s.
Would Be Affected by Conference
 on China Rights

London, July . (P--The news that the United states government is pressing for consideration of the extra territorial rights in China is given prominence in the morning newspapers, but there is no edi- torial comment upon it,
 In some quarters the assumption IS expressed that the move implies an endeavor to secure early aboli. ton Of these rights, and as Great Britain would be chief y affected by such abolition the matter is treated scnsationaly.
 Elsewhere. however, 1t is believed the United States does not propose to go beyond the resolution adopted lat the Washington conference, pro- vIding for discussion by repre- sentatives Of the powers, looking to eventual abolition Of the special privileges which the foreigners now possess in China,
 While 1t is asserted unofficially that Great Britain Is in harmony with the United States in this re- speCt, the present disturbed cond- tions in China are generally empha- sized and Foreign Secretary Cham berlain's statement in the house of commons yesterday is cited as ! showing the importance which the British government attaches to restoration Of order before any of the wider issues are taken up.
 Great Britain Is said to have in formed the Picking government that extra territorial rights and similar questions cannot be discussed until the anti-foreign movement has sub sided and the incidents at Shanghai and elsewhere have been satisfac- torily settled.
 Referring to this the diplomatic commentator of the Daily Telegraph says: Tt is to be hoped that this standpoint will be upheld against any suggestions for untimely con sessions from powers which have less at stake than Great Britain"

COFFEE PROFITS '" WORRY BRAZIL
Handling of This Product Is Very Important Business

Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, July ? P What causes the high price of coffee? Brazil believes that the Americans are gaining huge profits, and have resolved to find out the truth. The president of the state Of Sac Paulo in an interview, has stated that three or four men are now in the United States trying to ascertain the amount Of profits made by the American roasters. He added that coffee men in Sac Paulo are convinced that marketing group, somewhere between the Brazilian exporter and the American consumer, Is securing profits that are large enough to injure the trade.
 Two newspapers in Rio de Janeiro -haNe recently pointed out that the profits of Brazilian coffee growers :are very high, and have advised caution in continuing policy which cmight lead to serious financial 5?trouble for the country.
 One of these papers, O Jornal, :says that the hostile attitude of the North American is the result of prices which even Brazilians admit are extortionate."
 Coffee growers should be satisfied with less profits" Is the opinion of o Brasil, which adds that financial returns should be confined to a reasonable amount. Coffee, at pres Eent prices, guarantees a big income. Plantation owners according to their published balance sheets, have net profits ranging from 25 to 100 per cent on the money invested. The American non-buying movement to force down the price is perfectly legitimate"
 Producers usually deny the asser- ction that they are gaining 100 per :cent annually on the money in vested. It is pointed out that farm sralues are rising rapidly, Dr. cAugusto Ramos, author of book con coffee and a former manager of a large plantation, says that the average size coffee farm in the Sac .fsPaulo region Is now giving an an- nual profit of sSo,C00, and that the market value of the farm would be about $150,o0o. He claims that the growers are only securing a reason able profit and that they cannot sell at a price below present quota tions.
 : There are numerous indications that Brazil expects to hold up the price of coffee. The new co. operative defense institute of Sac Paulo has been buying on the San. fos market to prevent a fall in prices A movement has just been started by the state of Sac Paulo tc secure co-ordinated action amona the neighboring coffee growing states for holding back entries ot coffee at the port Of Rio de Janeiro similar to the system used al Santos.
 The June number of Bra zilis, Business the official magazine O fhe American Chamber of Commerc, for Brazil, publishes the followinl statement, in an unsigned article. c, the coffee situation:
 We believe that moderate conn sels will govern the future policy 0 3srazll In regard to her great stapI 1ndustry. for she would risk to, much by prolonged attempt {, circumvent the fundamental law O supply and demand.

Champagne Flowing
 Freely in London

London, July ? R'-Champagne is flowing more freely during this London season than it did during the weeks immediately following the armistice, according to authori- ties in the wine trade.
 The present hot weather has in- creased demand which was already brisk for many functions, and the workers in the vaults at Black friars Arches are busy getting the golden tipped bottles out of bond. Many of the big hotels and wine re- tallers recently reduced their prices for all but the first class brands.

that have prevailed for so long. The leaders in her coffee industry certainly realize thIs fact, and their objective is a market with a mini mum of fluctuations around an aver age price level that will assure ample returns to the growers and yet not result in diminished con sumption abroad, In this policy they are in complete accord with the American coffee trade"

Rubber Supply
U. S. AUTOISTS PAY ENGLAND
$75,0OO,0 900 FOR EACH 10 CENT
INCREASE SAYS FIRESTONE,
TIRE MANUFACTURES.

American automobile owners and
other users of rubber will pay between
one hundred million and four hundred
million dollars this year to Great
Britain through its rubber monopoly.
Iarvey S. Firestone, tire manufacturer
said at Washington Saturday. Bri-
tish monopolists controlling most of
the rubber production of the world
are netting $75,O00,OOO on every 10
cent pound increase, he declared.
Rubber has been advancing steadily
and now is about 43 cents pound,
with the world Threatened with
shortage, Mr.. Firestone said. He cit
ed the fact that crude rubber, which.
was Is cents pound four years ago
jumped to 81 cents after the 1922
regulation, dropped to II after the
United State Congress voted $780,
900 to develop domestic production,
and now its higher than its previous
| peak.
America must produce its own rub
ber, Mr.. Firestone said. English inter-
ests control about IS per cent of the
worlds output and the United States
uses rs per cent of the crude rubber
produced.
Firestone's intimate friends, Henry
Ford and Thomas Edison, have joined
him in an Investigation, of the sourc-
es of rubber supply and growing rub
ber trees in southern portions of the
4 United States.

Inspection Made.

At the request Of DIR. j. w. Golden,
the city dairy inspector, DR.. r. w.
Archibald of the State Board of
Health last week visited Redwood
Falls and made an inspection of dairy
herds suppling the city with milk.
Several instances, were found in
which conditions imposed by the
State Department have not bee COM
piled with and on effort will be made
to protect the consumer to the ex-
tent of having the letter of the law
lived up to by the dairymen. While
it is not the desire of the local in
spector nor of the Council to impose
any hardship upon the dairymen, i
is very essential that the city's milk
supply be made pure and that the
service be kept strictly sanitary. DR.
Golden expects to make frequent in
spections himself and is assured OF
much assistance from the State De-
partment in carrying out this neces-
sary enforcement. Redwood Falls
has very complete Milk Ordinance
and to enforce this from every angle
is the aim Of the officials, both state
and local.

Editor Gets
Thrill from
Decreased Tax
TAXES ON RESIDENCE AND BUSI-
NESS PROPERTY NEARLY SEW
ENTY-FIVE DOLLARS LESS
THAN LAST YEAR.

The editor got a thrill Monday
morning by asking County Treasurer
A. P. Falk the amount of her real es-
tate taxes, payable May 1st. The
thrill came, not in hearing that tax
-es are to be paid, but that in both
instances-on both residence proper
ty and business building-the amount
of the tax is considerably less than
that of last year. On May 1 1924,
the tax paid on the residence proper
ty was $120.10. May 1st 1925 we
shall pay (if we have the money!
S96.76, reduction of $2324 On the
Gazette shop last year the tax was
making saving of $500. These
two reductions total decrease OF
$72.54 from the amount paid last year
Figures don't lie," and the above
prove rather conclusively that taxes
are not increasing at an alarming
rate of speed in Redwood Falls.
Treasurer Falk states that there are
several cases where the decrease is
not equal to that in the above two
instances, these being cases where
the assessed valuation was unreasona-
bly, low formerly and was raised last
year to make the tax equitable all
over the city. In only few extreme
cases, however, was the assessmen!
increased to such an extent that the
tax this year is higher than that o1
last year and in the great majority
of cases it is much lower as in the
case just cited. Taxes on the bushes.

which is spread over ten yea1
