Imports Vital TO Our Trade

We are so accustomed to regard exports as the
favorte child Of foreign trade and to look askance at
her sister, Imports that reversal of that attitude is
refreshing. Yet George J. Eder, Chief of the Latin
American section Of the Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce, states emphatically that: "Were
we to be cut off from cur Latin American imports
or from our imports from the world in general our
industries would be instantly and hopelessly pa
ralyzed. One might say without overstatement that
imports are the vital half of our international trade
After pointing out that over 80 percent of our
imports from Latin America are crude materials and
59 percent tropical foodstuffs, Mrs. Eder remarks
that any one of thousand articles which we re-
gard as typically American would be incomplete
were it not for importations from abroad. He then
enlarges on his theme
"Sisal from Mexico gives us the binder twine that
makes our present day mechanzed agriculture feast
pie, while sodium nitrates from Chile help to ferti
lze our cotton mieds Other imports from Latin
America add vastly to the amenities of life such as
coffee, cocoa and sugar Black diamonds from Brazil
help us to drill oil wells Ivory nuts from Colon
bia and Eucador give the buttons for our clothes
Chlcle from Mexico gives us our chewing gum
Qunine, cocaine and iodine from Peru, Bolivia and
Chile relieve our sufferings'
In view OF the prevailing American attitude to-
ward the alleged miracles accomplished by "protec-
t0n, MIR. Elders concluding statement is especial
ly enightening:
Fortunately, our Latin American trade will not
wait TO be rescued from depression by the oratory Of
those who excuse their own impotence by procaiming
that prosperity is state Of mind to be attained bV
speeches and flamboyant propaganda but will de-
pend upon the progress Of these and Of still newer
industries brought into being from the laboratories
of science by the creative powers of able manage
mentS.

Mothers Day

Mothers Day, which falls on May IL this year,
had its origin orig! in thought by Philadelphia young
first observed in number of cities in the United
States in 1906.
The beautiful idea spread rapidly until it was
commended in 1913 by Joint resolution of Congress
whereby that body and the executive departments Of
the government recognized the day In 1914 more for
nal recognition was given by Congress, when the
President was authorized to designate by annual pro-
clamation the second Sunday in May as Mothers Day
and to request the display Of the American flag on
government buildings and private homes.
The first proclamation under this authority was
issued by President Woodrow Wilson On May 9, 1911
and the custom has beer continued ever since
The object Of the day is to recall memories of
mothers who have passed to the beyond and to pay
special tributes of affection to the living The badge
for the day is the white calnation embematc of the
beauty purity and fidelity Of mother love BY some
the red carnaton is worn in honor of living mothers
Few of us reflect as often as we should upon the
debt Of love and gratitude we owe to our mothers
BY thoughts and acts of sincere affection on Mothers
Day and On other days. we not only honor them, but
also honor ourselves.

A FIELD FLOWER
By Jcmes Montgomery
There is flower, little flower
With silver crest and golden eye,
That welcomes every chanyir:
hour,
And weathers every sky.
The prouder beauties of the field
! In gay but quick succession shine,
Race after race their honors yield,
They flourish and decline.
But this small flower, TO Nature
dear,
While moons and stars their courses
run,
Wreathes the whole circle of the
year,
Companion of the Sun.
It smiles upon the lap of May
10, sultry August spre "a ds its
charms,
Lights pale October on his wav,
And twines December's arms.
Within the gardens cultured round
1T shares the sweet carnations bed:
And blooms on consecrated ground
In honor of the dead.
On waste and woodland, rock and
plain,
Its humble buds unheeded rise;
1he Rose has but summer reign:
The Daisy never dies!

The Purpose Of the Proposed Amend.
ment:
The supreme court, as now organized
under the constitution, consists Of q
chief Justice, and four associate Jus.
,tices, all elected by the people. In 1918,
in order to take care Of the Increasing
business Of the court, the legislature
passed law providing for the appoint
ment Of two commissioners to assist
the court In the performance Of It's
duties. The act under which these
commissioners are appointed provides
that each shall receive the same com.
pensatIon as a Justice Of the supreme
court, and also provides that II, by
amendment to the constitution, the
number Of associate Justices shall be
Increased to six the office Of commits
sloner shall without further act be
abolished.
In practice the commissioners sit as
members OF the court, hear arguments,
read briefs, take part In discussions,
write opinions. and In general do the
Same work as the regular Justices, but
they have no vote In determining the
final decisions Of the Court. The leg
lslature cannot give the commissioners
q voice In the decisions Of the court,
since the organization Of the court Is
governed by the constitution.
The purpose Of the proposed amend
ment Is to provide for the election Of
two more associate Justices with full
authority as members Of the court, to
take the place Of the present two com.
n1lssIoners, who will then cease to hold
office.
The Effect Of the Proposed Amend
ment:
The effect Of thu proposed amend,
ment, II adopted, will be to provide
for the election Of two more associate
Justices Of the supreme court with full
authority as members of the court, re-
placing the present two commission.
