American and Canadian Ports.
Cincinnati Enquirer)


 Under resolution sponsored by Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, thorough investigation has been made of the alleged diversion of American export and import trade to Canadian seaports instead of ports in the United States. It was charged in the Senate that because of differences in customs regua tions there large movement of business into the hands of Canadian cities Under the Walsh resolution the matter has been studied by the De- partments of State and Agriculture and the Inter state Commerce Commission, and their report has just been made available
 Curiously, the Canadian Senate made similar inquiry few years ago. charging the very opposite movement of shipping. According to the recent report neither charge is strictly accurate There has been diversion of traffic in both directions On the basis of dollar value of shipping, the United States has lost to Canadian ports Yet on a basis of the percentages of national trade diverted the United States has gained far more than has Canada
 And so the report, like many others of it's kind proves little or nothing. In any event there is no cause for resentment against Canadian practices with regard to customs and terminal facilities Per haps the really significant point in connection with the report is that it shows how greatly the United States and the Dominion have become integrated into single economic unit. This is the key to the mutual prosperity of both countries and further steps in this direction assured by the coordna- tion of customs regulations in the two countries eyentuany-by the cooperative development of deepwater channel from the lakes to the Atlantic

The Role of Copper y. Human Alcoholism.
Engineering and Mining Journalo

(Engineerlng and MHnng JOuIntl'
 Three years of research, by Doctors F. B. Finn and w C. von Claim of Columbia University whose work $ described in the current issue of the Journal of Experimental Medicine proves the harmlessness of copper in the quantities ordinarily found in food and drinking water Incidentally, the findings refute the theory advanced by distinguished pathologist that copper may be the underlying cause ot crhosls of the liver, the "poison, it was alleged, coming from bootleg liquor that had been prepared in copper stills For complicity in the spread of this disease it is evident that a combination of copper and the Eighteenth Amendment must therefore be exoner- ated.
 The red metal is widely distributed above ground. The more recent research at Columbia demonstrated that it is found in the flyers of numerous animals, lin human and cows milk in almost all vegetables, in most insects and in many marine animals. It takes the place of iron in the blood of Holsters and crabs which reminds of the first official bulletin issued in regard to the fatal illness of President Harding-that it was caused by poisoning from sea food caught in the region of the Alaskan copper minesl
 The minimizing suspicion that has been cast on copper the probable of poisoning and disease is almost entirely unjustifed, these investigators lhave proved For the sequence of discovery to have been logical one, however the conclusions might well have preceded the work done at the University of Wisconsin, reported early in 1928 and released through the American Society of Biological Chemists This proved the value of copper a remedy for anemia and hinted the importance of copper an essential body element.
 Many cherished superstitions will collapse under the searchlght of truth and the inqustive eyes of impartial research. Investigators into the realm of
 the ordinarily unnoticeabe may explain why perfect health is so often associated with complete dis regard of fads and fances, the proponents and ex- ponents of which are ignorant of the importance of certain meals and metallic compounds as constituents of properly balanced diet

PRIVATE CITIZEN CALVIN COOLIDGE

Private Citizen Calvin Coolidge returns to his Northampton home today enjoying distinction that is shared with only two others since Gen. Jackson let the White House for the Hermititage 92 years ago He retires from the Presidency with the dent assurance that he takes with him the approval of his political party and a majority of the American people. Every time the countrys voters have registered verdict since be became President it has been of approval The people have okehed his Administration, and he bears the refreshing dorsement into private life. Only Roosevelt and Cleveland the first time he left the White House, have had similar experience
 The right to include Cleveland in this list might te disputed. for he defeated in 1888 for re- election However, he had received a substantial plurality of the popular votes he had the undivided enaorsement of the then powerfully organized and militant Democratic Party. which for fifteen years hsd been numerically the strongest political party ii the country, and there general feeling even then that he would return to the Presidency in four years. He did
 None will question that Roosevelt took into re- tirement the approval and benediction of majority of his countrymen, and he succeeded in the Presidency by the man of his choice.
 It is true that Gen. Grant was succeeded by a member of his party, but the real verdict of 1876 for Tilden and the Democrats, even if it should be conceded that Hayes elected in cordance with the legal technicalties Tilden ceived large majority of the popular votes and the Democrats elected the Congress. Grants Admin istration repudiated in 1876 just as it had lost the elections in 1874.

THE NEW PRESIDENT.

One could count on his fingers possibly on those of a single hand, the who have entered the Presidency with better equipment to meet the tasks that confronted them than that which Herbert Hoover possesses for the work before him MT Hoover becomes the thirty first President of the United States with experience, education and talent that peculiarly fit him for leadership at this time. He is a trained executive. He is born organizer. He is an engineer by education He is a proved diplomat He is an ndefatgabe worker. He knows the world and its peoples from contact with them in many widely separated sections. Probably none understands the industrial and economic problems of the United States better than he.
 With this equipment, MT. Hoover becomes Presi- dent by the overwhelming choice of the people. His majority was tremendous The people are with him He has the -upport and the well wishes of hose of all sections and all vacations. They expect much of him and they feel confident that the ex- psctations will be fulfilled.
 MT. Hoover takes his office under favorable auspices Not for quarter of century have the radicals the faddists the men with cure-alls, the discontented muck -rakers those with grouches and mates to satisfy been so insignificant in numbers or influence The Republican Party is nearer unanmity in it's support of traditional Republican principles and policies than it has been since Mckinley. Presi- dent Hoover should have little difficulty in getting support for his policies.
 The worst visible menace to the success of the new Administration is the. aggressive arrogance and intolerance of the Anti-Saoon League and those preachers and their followers who insist the Govern ruents first objective should be the regulation of the personal habits and conduct of the people and who claim the privilege of absolute censorship-who have assumed super government prerogatives. If the Ad- anstraton fails to live up to the high expectations f the people it will probable be due to these factors
 However, Herbert Hoover is President of the whole people, and Gov. Smith, leader of the op- position, has said, the people should support hin regardless of party affiliations or location of resi- dence. The Empire has every confidence that ht will make great President and expects to find i easy to give him the sort of support that the Pres dent ought to have.

THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND
 ITS FUND.

The Chamber of Commerce membership is now l8O but the annual fund is about 25 per cent smaller than last year. The membership ought to Joe double that number and there should be no shrinkage in the fund However, before everybody in town and out have been heard from, the Chambers fund will probably exceed $4OO0, and that will finance lot of desirable activity The Chamber is well organ ized and President Faulkners promise that the officers will make it point to see that the com muntv will get full value for every dollar expended will be carried out to the letter
 This promises to be one of the best years for this City and there will be lot of work to do if Juneau is to make the most of her opportunities. It is not too late yet boost the Chamber of Com merce fund and those who have not paid subscrip- tions ought to get themselves enrolled as members and write their checks without delay.

.NEWSBOY CALLS
ON HOOVER

Abe Hollandersky who calls
himself THE Worlds Greatest
Newsboy" called at the White
House yesterday to obtain Pres
ident Hoover's photograph or
signature.
Abe is an old prize-fighter and
no one could ever mistake him
for anything else. His cauli-
flower ears, his heavy jaw, his
broad shoulders, his lingo and
everything else about him loudly
proclaimed his profession"
Hollandersky Notwithstanding
his Polish name is a native Of
New London and claims that on
various occasions he had lively
fistic encounters with former
President Roosevelt on the May
flower. On one Of these
occasions, Abe said, Roosevelt
vigorously pulled his ears after
the pug had given him a sting
ing blow in the region Of the
solar plexus.
The fighter-newsboy carried
with him a huge volume con-
tanning photographs autographed
by many American statesmen,
financiers and other prominent
men.

CITIZENS FIGHT
ZONE CHANGE

Unanimous opposition to zoning
Of the section of Virginia High
lands as heavy industrial" de-
veloped at a public hearing of
the Zoning Commission in the
Hume School on Mt. Vernon Rd.
last night.
The section so designated is
that adjacent to the Columbia
Pike, near the brick yards. One
plot so zoned is that formerly
owned by the Auth Company, on
which they twice attempted to
erect an abattoir.
Various residents Of the section
lnterposed objections to deSignat-
ing this section as heavy indus
trial." citing the present residen-
tial development and the plans
for parks and highways of the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission.
The first suggestion was made
by H. C. Morris, who asked the
commission to consider the sec
ton now zoned as heavy indus
trial. as "non-conforming light
industrial" AS Morris pointed out,
it is much easier to change from
light Industrial to heavy" than
vice versa, because of the char
acter of the buildings and plants
necessary for the latter.
Fred A. Gosnell, chairman, pre-
sided at the hearing.
