sented and the merchant consequently
returned it.
But the wholesale house neverthe-
less attempted to collect the bill;
and drew a sight draft through the
local bank, which returned the draft
unhonored. The wholesaler then
wrote to the postmaster about tho
financial standing of the merchant,
and the postmaster replied that it

the bill and they received the fol-
lowing reply:

LETTER &N

WASHINGTON-If the Cantonese
nationalist forces manage to obtain
control of all China, it is not sure
to mean that China will long have
a strong, centrally controlled gov
ernment
The aim of the Cantonese is to
weld their country into a great
national unit, but history mocks
their laudable effort
Tn the first place, the Chinese are
not homogeneous people. They
speak, in effect, a number of entirely
different languages and their system
of writing is such tht few of them
can read.
Just as important, any strong
central government would require
a fairly good system of communica-
tion and railroads such as China now
has not.
Lack Native Ability
If the nationalists chase all the
foreigners out of the country, they

may be cutting off their own noses,
for experts on the Chinese situations
do not believe that the Chinese
themselves are yet anywhere near
III position to establish an adequate
system of communication and trans
portation.
Not only would foreign brains
and foreign initiative probably be
required, but such a program would
necessitate loans from western ma
tions. China might expect and OBJ
tain some aid from Russia, but the
effectiveness of such aid is prob
lenatical.
The success of war lords in various
sections of China has been partly
due to their inaccessibility It has
been hard for the central govern
ment or their rivals to get at them,
and it is to- be noted that in the
past few years, most of the Chinese
warfare has been seasonal. Mud

SUPPLY AND DEMAND

Long years ago / used to think
When I found out what furs were worth,
That seal and sable, mole and mink
Would shortly perish from the earth.
Said 1: "The martens skunks and stoats
Must vanish from the fields and veldts,
When questing for more women's coats
The trappers slay them for their pelts.
But trappers their vocation ply
In greater numbers every year,
And as each season passes by
Increasing stocks of furs appear.
They set their snares on alien tides
They sail their barks from zone to zone,
And every Autumn bring back hides
OF creatures hitherto unknown.
And still the moles and minks increase, ,
The seals and sables multiply,
Although the women never cease
To buy and buy and buy and buy.
The dowager upon parade
The flapper with her skates or skis,
The shop girl and the ladys maid
Are clad in furs from neck to knees.
oh gallant fox, heroic bear,
To rear more children every year
So that the coats which women wear
May never, never disappear!

Whose brit hrate never is controlled ,
That you may raise the robes in which

HOOVER CIV EN-
COMMUNICATION
BY PRESIDENT
Secretary Of Commerce Held
Competent to Fill Any
Cabinet Place

Washington. April l9.--AR The
declaration Of the White House
spokesman last week that Secretary
Hoover would not be assigned to the
state department, even should Sccrc-
tary Kellogg retire. was taken up
again by the spokesman today to
make it clear that no dcrogatiOn Of
Mr.. HoOvcr's capacity had been in
tended.
The pres sdent was said to cons idcr
that Mr.. Hoovcr's reputation for
ability and achievement had been SO
well established in the United States
and abroad that Mr.. Coolidge would
not be able to damage it by any ac-
tion or word if he so desired. The
president, however, has no such de-
sire. it was said, and considers that
Mr.. Hoover is competent to fill any
cabinet place which might be open
or which he might desire.
Nevertheless, the president was
said to consider that under Mr.
Hoover's direction the commerce de-
partment had assumed II position Of
extraordinary Importance, both ir
! reference to the conduct of tht
economic life Of the country and its
F., bearing upon foreign trade.
| The reason the spokesman did no,
make clear his view of Mr.. Hoover
in discussing the state department
/! last week, il was said, was because
the statuts and capacity of Mr.
Hoover was so completely assumed Il
be known by the president that i
was supposed that the assumption
was held by everybody else.
