u. S. Trade With Latin-America Leaps

Thirty years ago. Robert Ellis Thompson. an economist
preaching tho Blaine gospel OF reciprocity in tariff pro-
lection. won many q sheer because he persisted IN ad-
vocating international commerce on north and south
lines instead of on east and west shipping courses.
His argument was that exchange Of commodities
should proceed between areas producing contrastcd prod
ucts instead Of products of the same nature. He would
have had the United States exchanging machinery, tex
tiles and manufactured goods with South and Central
America in return for coffee. sugar, tropical fruits and
the like. rather than selling to Europe articles Of the
same kind as were bought in return.
He urged natural commerce instead of trade compar-
able to carrying Goals to Newcastle" His proposal seemed
hopeless at the time. But gradually it is making head
way to the extent of a growing commerce with South
America. In fact the trade with Lstin-Amerca has
attained a total Of s200O,OoOlooo, and these are the
figures Of a year ago.
This is amazing. even to an optimist of so years ago,
when It seemed too remote to consider the possibility of
such q development. At that time the two sections Of
America were doing a business of about s300oO000O be-
tween them. James G.. Blaine. about the time North Da-
kota became q state. cprung his reciprocity proposal,
whereby 1t was urged that trade with South America
could be stimulated in no better way than for this coun-

- Parents

by Alice Judson PealeD


There is perhaps no ingredient in a
small child's life more important
than serenity-the sweetness and
peacefulness which are the result of
regularity. quiet, security, cheerful
ness.
It helps sometimes to imagine ones
home as 1t must affect a small child
living in it. What comingS and go
ings are there? What Is the temper
of the conversation across the break
fast table? What are the preoccu-
pations of his elders during the hours
they spend at home? What currents
and Inducements of feeling find
their expression In the day to day life
of his home?
A child's life Is composed at least
as much of these things as Of his own
particular routine. his " posses
sions, his W play. The more Sensi-
tive the child. the nor influenced
by them is he.
Some homes abound in easy, uncon-
scious serenity. Fortunate tempera-
mentS and fortunate circumstances
have combined to make that back
ground which ideally we should re-
Quire for every child. Others r not
% blessed. and when serenity Is not
a natural element Of the home life 1t
IS not easy to acquire even its counter
felt.
Yet conscious effort will do wonders
toward achieving that intangible en-
vircnn1ent which with the sensitive
child affects SO profoundly his char
acter. The self control which makes
his elders check their tendency to-
ward contentious conversation. and
refrain from discussing subjects heav-
lily charged with emotion, or from
worrying openly about finances and
living arrangement@these are moi
wasted.
The child in such a household feels
just so much less the burdens Of his
elders and is just SO much more Sc
rene in his own spirit.

President Far from Suuelched

The senate has scored on President Hoover. III the
writing OF the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill, III voting in a
provision BY which the power Of the executive TO pro-
claim rcvisions Of duties, either up or down on the rec
cn.rendation Of tho tariff commission. Is Withdrawn ana
revision made the exclusive prcrogativc Of congress.
This comes somewhat as a slap at the president, VINO
but the other day pronounced against any action OF this
nature and defended the exercise Of tho power under
the flexible provision Of the existing tariff law as wise,
convenient and perfectly within the bounds OF executive
administration.
Tho senate took a 'nsc course. i. will be recalled. in the
formulation of the farm relief bill. u wrote III the OBJ
jectionable debenture plan, against which the president
had pronounced.
Later on it had to submit to the humiliation OF aoan-
doning its debenture attitude. For the most part, the oe-
mand for the debcnture came from the bloc Of Demo-
Gratis and it had all the carmarks OF a political gesture.
Even in instances where the faith III the plan might have
been valid, the stand taken against 1t by the president

neuvers and in conference the senate foes of the white
house we're forced to reccde. The present action starts
the old situation over again in duplicate.
Apparently the senate opposition has not learned any
thing by its farm relief experience. For 1t is not UNI
likely that when the tariff bill goes into conference, the
house again will be forrd backing the president. IL ad-
clifton. the president has the veto power i'll reserve. ana
lie might conccivably be goaded into using it Oh the

for revision.
The flexible tariff provision was not anything to be
alarmed over. The president could not change any duties
unless the tariff commission recommended a change
This made provision for emergency revision OF single

exercised the authority III the caeo wheat. on which he
increased the duty to a. cents a husilcl. President

Coming out Of the office today. I
saw a large group of men c~luttering
up the entrance OF the building
watching a man use what wa to me.
and apparently to them, a new type OF
51op: u,osoa 49,
chanically operated. built something
like a vacuum cleaner, that sloshed
out cddieS Of soap SudS and dirty wa
ter. and in a few minutes cleaned
thoroughly an area that would have
taken an hour by the old hands and
knees method of scrubbing, and it
certainly gave the backbone the
breaks.
Instantly came to my mind the pic
ture / have sometimes seen in Of
flee buildings after office hours+that
band Of tired looking. neglected look
ing women, that invade the corridors
after the office workers have gone,
and mop up the marble floors. OF
all the army of the employed, they
have probably the least glamor. They
look as gray and drab as the ging-
ham costumes they wear, and they
seem to disappear into the night as
they come out with It. Immediately
l saw them emancipatcd from their
scrubbing brushes and their pals OF
soap Suds.

It is my observation that women arc
much less interested in labor savers
and inventions than men are. even
though it is their time that is saved.
/ know a man who could never resist
a new can opener-waS completely
fascinated by the mechanism Of them
and bought dozens. who never could
tell his wife to use anything but an
old broken onc she got when she
started housekeeping.
His new contributions we're always
RECALLED to the storehouse as soon as
his interest in them was W And
it occurs to me that the great differ
encc in men and women workers Is
not the mutual way they do the work.
but the way they attack it.
Most women want to get set and
~secure-and to stay that way. The
woman office worker wants her Job
outlined and fenced SO she knows ex-
actly what it is. She wants to know
the limitations and just what Is re-
CURED.
WOMEN'S VIEWPOINT
Most women make q virtue of being
conscientious about their work and
doing what they are expected to do,
and wonder why some other person
who is always having ideas and
changing everybody's routine is the
enc who gets the promotion.
Women are not less curious than
men-they are, however. more apt to
be personal In their curiosity. When
they 9 use this feminine trait more
abstractly, they will find out how
very valuable it can become.

The Pig Is Not Piggish

From the day when man first began to cat bacon. the
word pig has stood for the ultimate in greed and bad
manners.
But now comes the u. s. department OF agriculture
with a bulletin asserting that the pig has been foully
wronged. He is not, after all, pggish by nature: under
the surface he has unsupported forces Of restraint and
daintiness.
The department found this out by experimenting with
sclf-feeders for pigs. These things. it seems. are con-
trivances by which the pig can help himself to his food
whenever he feels like it.
One might expect that this would find the pig with his
snout forever in the trough. But, as a matter Of fact. the
pig eats less this way, and is far nicer about it. than
when he Is fed by hand.
In other words, the pigs piggistness has been forced on
him BY man. When we call a greedy glutton q pig we
are s~landering the noble race Of porkers.
