Huge Rubber Farm

Liberia has given the F1restone
Tire and Rubber Company a ninety
nine-year lease on 1000. 900 acres of
land, which. according to Mr.. Fire
stone, will be developed into one of
the greatest rubber plantations on
earth.
The company has made sufficient
studies OF rubber growing in
Liberia has operated a plantation
Of 1900 acres for several years and
has ceased 10000 acres Of producing
rubber trees.
To reclaim and develop the one
million acres OF raw land, together
with such improvements as will have
to be made, will cost in the neigh
borhood Of 500, 100000.
When complete, this vast plan
tation will require the services OF
some 100000 native laborers and is
expected to yield 100000 tons of
rubber annually.
Since the total worlds production
Of rubber is considerably less than
100000 tons annually, the Firestone
company has in mind a project
which, If successfully carried out,
win produce a sufficiently large per
centage to prevent any nation or
concern from establishing a
monopoly.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1926-12-11

upon that proposal was carried by a margin.
Out of every 100 voters only "a voted for free
education. There 46 men who stood solidly
against education a great State asset.
II that be to olong ago, read the story of 1875
fifty years ago. when the big payers of taxes tried to
defeat proposal to establish free high schools They
went so far as to try to get the Supreme Court to
declare any such expenditure of money against their
constitutional rights.
They were the men who had gained fortunes and
who said 1t was shame that their employees should
have their children educated at public expense.
How far would they get today If they tried to
abolish the high school2
How far would those 46 out of every 100 get
today If they tried to abolish free public schools
Yet strange to say, the sort of gentlemen
will probably be present in the next Legislature
when the University of Indiana tries to get enough
money to educate its boys and girls to intelligent
leadership of this State.
1t Is small wonder that this State has at times
given itself to the leadership of Stephenson.
What else could be expected?
Unless we wish to forever establish the State as
bulwark Of ignorance, the last refuge of unnteli-
gence. the State University must be given enough
money to permit it to furnish intelligent leader
ship.

Rubber-Tired Killers

Basing his estimate on the expert
ence of tifty-two life insurance COM
panies that cover the lives of st.
100000 people. Henry l.. Nollen,
president Of the Equitable Life In
surance Company of Iowa, says that
the death rate will be higher by 4
per cent in 1925 than it was in 1925.
He says that death from automo-
bile accidents will number $4,000
this year and that more Americans
have been killed by automobiles dur
ing the last two years than died
on the battle front in France during
the war.
He says that suicide for this year,
as indicated by figures thus far COM
piled, will show a 10 per cent in
crease ofev 1925, but that murder
win show per cent decrease.
He says that while a comparison
of mortality statistics for 1925 and
'26 may appear to show discourag-
ig results, real progress Is being
made; that within six years the
death rate has fallen more than 8
per cent and that people have a
much better chance to live than
they did in 1920.

Kill EN- MerCifuIIy

War with Mexico seems so prob
able to some Senators that they
can't bear the idea of the United
States joining twenty-nine other ma
tons in a treaty to forbid the use
Of poison gas.
If we must cross the Rio Grande
and kill off the poems, they want us
to be humane about It.
Senator Reed Of Pennsylvania
weeps at the thought OF the Ameri-
can Army moving into Mexico with
artillery, shrapnel and machine
guns. For that reason he is leading
the fight to defeat the Geneva poison
gas protocol.
If Mr.. Doheny could be induced
to build a forty-foot board fence
along the border out of his love for
both countries. the situation might
be saved.

[ oVable French

The French Chamber Of Deputies
engaged in a heated argument last
Wednesday over occupation of the
Rhineland Some OF the members
were peculiarly incensed because. as
they alleged, the diplomatic pouch
had been used to convey all sorts of
luxuries.
Premier Poincare said he knew of
only one such instance. and that
was that the body Of a dead dog
had been franked by a husband who
was returning 1t to his wife for
burial in the home garden.
The premier said that, after In
vestigating the case and convincing
himself that the man was moved en-
tirely for affection for the dog, he
did not have the heart to issue a
reprimand.
Knowing that the premier was sus-
ceptible to such attachments and
that he was particularly fond of a
pet cat, the chamber cheered him to
the echo.
1t was one of those incident that
reveal the lovable side of French
character.

THE MINE DISASTER

Tragic is the extent of the disaster which sent
two score and more to their deaths in an In
diana coal mine, the greater tragedy is that most
of lis look upon these catastrophes as inevitable.
The men who spend their lives beneath the earth
in the search for fuel do so that other men may
live in warm houses and that the wheels of industry
may be kept going
In a less complex civilization each man
would be compelled to forage his own fuel Now
we do 1t by proxy and those die regularly
In these mines do so because all the rest of US
send them into these unsafe places.
They dig the coal because other men must have
fuel and they go into unsafe mines because the
public demands fuel at cheap prices. Safeguards
would increase the price.
Certainly the least that can be offered to those
who risk their lives they start to work each day
is sharing Of that risk far money can be used
There should at least be fund raised by tax
on every ton of coal, of sufficient size to provide
for the widows and children of every man who is a
sacrifice to this essential of industry
There should be no hesitancy about an nsistence
upon the most scientific safeguards against these
recurrent tragedies
1t is probably that fifty years from now if we
then become partly civilized men will look back
with horror upon a system which sends men into
dangerous places in order that other men may be
comfortable and safe
Inc development OF electricity from the water
power in this State which is now neglected and
undeyeloped would heat the homes and run all the
industries which depend upon coal for heat or
power
Other States fortunate The white
coal that is to be found in the waterfalls of the
nation is beyond estimate, especially with the great
advance that is being made in the knowledge of how
to transform running water into heat and power
These disasters should challenge the magma.
ton of students and scientists. They should spur
into action the best thought to how to emerge
from the present era and make it unnecessary to
needessly risk human life. 1t should at least urge
every agency which has to deal with coal mining to
seek the highest standards of safety for the men
who are engaged in it.
Sometime should reach the understanding
that human life is not the cheapest but the most
valuable form of wealth

TOWARD FASCISM

II there is needed any argument against the
proposed repeal OF the primary law in this State
1t is to be found in the prelimnaries to the tour
which the Republican State chairman is making in
behalf of that movement.
II is matter of record that the officials of the
Republican and the Democratic party met and de-
cided that they would unite forces for the repeal
Of this law.
That should be reminder of those old days
of caucus and convention when the leaders of both
parties met together picked the candidates on ootn
tickets then proceeded to bargain off the OFFICES
to the privilege seeking interests. Just like old
times.
That is exactly what will occur again If the
Legislature is so ill advised we'll bcssed as to
wipe out the primary law in Indiana.
No one will pretend that the primary law Is
perfect No one will pretend argue that 1t has
no defects and especially is this true in the matter
of expense to which candidates go in order to
obtain nominations.
There have been grave scandals in the abuse
of the primary. But these scandals have always
been aided and abetted by those who wished to be-
tray the people and not to serve them
The fact that huge sums have been spent and
that many men find it necessary to spend money
is proof that leader has arisen with an issue or
purpose high enough to attract the conscience and
intelligence of the people.
When the right issue and the right man appear
all the insults in the nation will not be able to
prevail.
The present crusade has for its purpose the
wiping out of statewide primaries and the nomina
tion OF candidates for State Offices the senaorship
and the delegates presidential conventions by the
old party conventions
The presidential preferential primary rather
cramps the style of the politicians. They
longer able to bargain for Federal patronage
openly before The senatorships likewise
trfe difficult to manipulate
Those who would wipe out the primary must
rely for support upon the argument that the people
a guardianship from those who make special
business of politics.
The logic of that movement is Mussolin to
boss the people with an iron hand.
For if the people are unfit to select their party
candidates, they surely unfit to make the choice
between two candidates who in the last analysis
selected by exactly the same interests
II they unfit and unable to inteltgently
nominate candidates, how can they be expected to
show any intelligence in the elections?
1t Is true that the politicians argue that since
have the ballot the old-time caucus in the
back orsharrooms will take on different tone
They will be held in parlorss Perhaps
The real caucus were never held in the open.
They were those secret gatherings in hotel rooms
where the few decided and gave orders
II we are to destroy the weapons of the people,
why not destry all of them?
Fascsm and a Mussolini-or the people. That's
the choice. s.

PRESIDENT GALES ANSWERS
KELLOGG

The State Departments colorful picture of
bolshevism on rampage south of the Rio Grande
has drawn reply from the president of Mexico.
Asked by newspapers in Mexico City for state
ment President Gales characterized the State De-
partment story sheer propaganda which, II It
were not slanderous, would be ridiculous
Bolshevism, he said rather emphatically is Just
as foreign to Mexico 1t may be to the United
States He has recognized Russia just as the great
powers of Europe have done, first because of the
commercial interests involved, and second. because
international relations must be based mutual re-
spect for the opinions of humankind. Which in It,
self is something of slap at Secretary Kellogg.
What is modern Mexico driving at? Let Presi-
dent Gales tell you. Says he:
my governments ideal is to upight the great
subdued masses of the country from misery and
ignorance; to bring their social standard to higher
level to teach them better living; to supply them
with schools and other educational means; to bring
them to higher level of civilization; to unite the
nation and close the deep gulf which divides small
group OF Mexicans acquainted with comfort, luxury
and refinement and great mass Of Mexicans ex-
plotted by tyrannies forgotten by all governments
in misery, suffering and darkness.
~~-- This program Of my government, which is es-
sentaly Christian if considered with the least
degree of sympathy, is what has been called boshev-
ism by gratuitous detractors.
II feel sure that If instead of sustaining such
ideals should undertake the easy Of continuing
the policy Of Gen. Diaz giving support only to the
well-to-do, despising the workingman, shooting the
laborers, substituting newspapers to praise me- and
waste useless incense would be conferred at once
the false titles of peacemaker of the country and re-
builder of the nation.
"But prefer to do without them in order to con-
tinue humanitarian work-even if in so doing my
government may be slandered by this propaganda

THEY'RE GETTING TOGETHER
BY n. ID. Cochran

Now they're talking about one big European trust
to fight the industrial combinations of the United
States Representatives Of the Federation of British
Industries and the Federation OF German Industries
getting their heads together to organize a World
Trade Trust to meet United States competition.
All right. Let EN- go to It, 1t progress.
Europe may organize to fight but when it is strong
enough to fight 1t won't want fight When we
have Federation Of American Industries and they
form Federation of European Industries, both will
be too smart to waste much time effort and money
fighting. q They'll all get their heads and bank
accounts together and form a Federation of World
Industries.
poor by trying to destroy another in a of
competition. They organize. They combine. They
know that competition is and is waste. They
know that in the long run peace pays.
Europe had to organize industrially, of
If she doesn't, then organized industry in the United
States will take the money But Europe is well
organized then organized industry in this country will
put forth the glad hand and say Let's get together
and talk 1t over" The they talk it the less
they'll fight.
Organization is what is gradually forcing peace
between labor and capital in tins country. The better
labor Is organized the less appetite organized capital
has for War will end when both sides find that
war doesn't pay either and that peace pays both.
Whether the American Federation of Labor realizes 1t
not, it is much big business today the Steel
Trust. The better its organization the conserva
tive becomes Today 1t is bitter against boshev-
ism Gary is. 1t has actually gone into the banking
business.
Railroad competition isn't what it used to be.
The railroads organizing groups After they
get all their groups organized they stop organ
zing. They'll organize the groups into fewer groups
and finally into transportation system Two
freight ticket offices in community are as absurd
two postofices would be- Necessity drove the gov
eminent to compel consolidated ticket offices during
the war Now the railroads foolishly getting back
to competition and chaos. The express companies
were driven together, but they are staying put.
Recently international bankers took crack at
tariffs and other barriers of trade That was only
starter The conference of the English and German
declarations of industry closely follows on the heels Of
that message from international nancers Ultimately
the barriers between European states will go down
they went down between the states OF this Union.
They will go down long i'm advance of a leveling of
political barriers But finally will the United
States of Europe World trade economic pressure
will do the work When the is put politics
strong enough politics will yield
After all, Commerce is king, although becoming
more democratic eveiy day. 1t is coming and
more under the government of economic law, while
political government is influenced by sentiment
and emotion. Science Is not the side OF emotion.
