being carried thru along two main
lines: ~ the tremendous increase
of U. s. foreign trade, and (2) the
capture of world shipping thru COM
petition in rates.
The first of these lines of develop
ment is shown, for example, in the
facts contained in an article by e. d.
Durand lin Commerce Reports, Aug.
10, 1925, department of commerce), as
follows:
The value Of exports in 1924-25 was
trife less than two and one-fourth
times, and that of imports trifie over
two and one-fourth times greater than
in the average pre-war year. :. Altho
prices now average decidedly higher
than before the war, there has been a
cumulative increase of somewhere
between 80 and 40 per cent in the case
of exports, and of somewhere between
so and 20 per cent in the case of i'm
ports, export prices on whole increas-
ing more than import prices"
THE second line of development is
4 illustrated in the almost utter
collapse" of the shipping industry, de-
scribed by A. R. Marsh, in an article
in the Annalist, Aug. %, previously
cited, in 1920, when ocean freight
rates had fallen precipitately to a
mere fraction of what they had been
few months before" and in the cur
rent rate decreases in 1925, as de-
scribed by e. S. Gregg, in his article,
Shipping Depression Continues" in
Commerce Reports, Aug. "a, 1925.
In the bitter struggle between Brit
ish and American shipping interests
Tor mastery of the worlds shipping,
the British owners are now trying to
offset to some degree the advantage
which the U. S. interests gained by
the indirect but effective subsidy en-
bodied in the sale of government ships
to private interests for little or moth
ing; the latest move of British ship
ping interests being another drastic

bear more of the burden of imperialist
competition. The British wage-sIash-
ing campaign is, of course, and by the
necessity" of capitalism, Immediately
reflected in wage-slashes in the small
er shipping nations of the world.
pUT this latest offensive against the
- interests of the working class has
aroused the most widespread and des-
perate resistance. To this struggle of
the workers in Europe and Asia, the
workers of America must react by
mobilizing the utmost possible assist
ance, and by joining the struggle. I'm

less the British and other seamen,
now struggling against wage cuts in
the principal seaports of the world, are
successful in their fight. the American
seamen and the entire American work
ing class eventually, will also feel the
lash of their masters, driving them to
pay still greater tribute for the i'm
perialist rivalry for control Of world
commerce. 1t is thus of the most
vital interest to the American seamen
and to the whole American labor
movement, to join in and to assist the
struggle of the seamen of Europe and
Asia.

PASTOR TELLS
HOW TO cure
Ca mg@AMMT r. MT
The Rev. FackIer, in Sermon,
Shows Beauty of Gods
Promises.

That one of the causes of discon-
tent is forgetfulness of how God has
helped us, was the claim OF Rev. L.
C. E. Fackler, preaching on 'Discon-
tent
the real cause of discomfort is
tho, aaui1" the Rev. Fackler said. +"
THAT is we do not heed the bless
ings. commandments and works of
God.
"One of the chief results of dis
content is being impudent in the
presence of God. We do not show
proper respect while in the presence
of God.
Discomfort moves people to mis-
construe the efforts of sincere souls.
We disrespect the work of those who
are doing Gods commands. AS the
scripture states, He that despises
you, desises me|
Another result of discomfort is
that those who are subject to dis.
content increases their difficulties of
the church in carrying out the word
of God.
THE cure Of discomfort is to show
how useless it is to worry. The
thing to do is to place ourselves in
the hands of God:1 Just like Moses
when the people attempted to stone
him. He took his troubles to God
and placed himself in Gods keeping.
We must have confidence in God s
promise, his works and his COM
mands," the Rev. Fackler said.

A Makeshift.

The French debt commission has
gone home with a makeshift agree
ment that defers final settlement for
five years and leaves the question Of
foreign debts on open, debatable
ground.
The debt cancellationists can con-
tinue to spread their propaganda,
and the controversy with France,
instead Of cooling off, will undoubt-
eddy become a more vital issue.
Hope for amicable settlement Of
the war debt question was felt on
this side Of the Atlantic when Eng
land and the United States reached a
funding agreement. Many smaller
European powers followed the Brit
ish example and signed their name
on the dotted line.
But not France. The astute finan-
eier, Joseph Caillaux, came to Amer
lea with the idea of driving a bar
gain that would make him strong
politically at home Failing in that,
he lodged responsibility by returning
with a compromise which will not
be effective until it is affirmed by
his government
In some cases a compromise is
more to be desired than an open
break And this is such case A
complete collapse of efforts to reach
final settlement would perhaps
have produced a strained situation
that would have been more disas-
trous in results than the present
makeshift.
