Renewing Trade Agreements

mer attitude and practice? There
seems to be several explanations.
One is the undoubted skin with
which the various treaties have been
negotiated and drafted. There has
been no demand Tor free trode or
even for greatly lowered duties
merely for fewer and less burden
some restrictions on trade.
The articles upon which tariffs have
been reduced have been carefully
chosen and the protests against the
reductions have not secured any
great measure Of support. Our pgo-
dueers OF manganese criticized the
lowering Of the duty on their pfcduct
as provided 10 the treaty with Bra
zil. but an announcement OF the small
amount OF capital invested and the
very few workers employed within
the United States IN that industry
made it clear that il was necessary to
import very large quantities OF man.
ganese as compared with our small
domestic production. Protests against
the lowering of duties upon lumber
provided in the treaty with Canada
were Offset BY the powerful support
these reductions received from
American buyers of lumber.
Another reason IS that there Is a
strong conviction that our domestic
prosperityois related to a reviv..! OF
foreign trade. II may be that our for
eign trade Is only about 10 per Gem
of our total trade but this small pefs
centage does not clearly indicate its
importance. We have ii the past ex-
ported so per cent or more Of our raw
cotton and also quit. high percent.
ages Of other products. Both the di.
rect and indirect effects OF curtail-
ment of such exports are great A
growing number of thoughtful Amer
leans realize that foreigners cannot
buy our goods In large quantities un-
less they can find the dollars with
which to pay and that these dollars
are made available chiefly through
imports into the United States.
Finally. and perhaps most impor-
lant. prices are rising. This advance
may go too fast and too far. but for
the present it is relieving the pres
sure upon many American producers.
They are less disturbed and as their
profits have increased are less in

TN RUTH'S lovely drawing room
L the shades had been drawn
against the hot spring sunlight tina:
was descending in the west; the
tea table had been placed at the
north windows that opened on the
little awninged balcony. When Tony
arrived there were only two per-
sons In the room: Ruth and the
marvellous Mrs. POlhemus. She was
younger than Ruth, not more than
thirty, handsome and dark and
striking, with coral lips and black
shining hair and an ivory skin.
"Oh, just ourselves?" Tony said
smilingly, as she was introduced.
Il thought 1t was a party!"

raising her face for Tony's kiss.

Tony went to her desk. and sat
down. She felt sick. Indifferently
she tried to bring her mind to her
social notes; it was no use. She
had been absorbed in her assign
ment all afternoon; she had run
down his story for Fitch, whom she
despised, and in doing so had in
jured, perhaps ruined, a harmless,
nervous, Woodworking woman of
forty, who had believed in her and
listened to her and taken her ad-
vice.
Tony sat brooding. Quite sud-
denly taking the telephone, she
asked for Mr.. Bellamy's office; she
must talk to him about it. !

and would not be back until tomor-

"She gave it to me. That's Ops

Mr.. Fitch held it in his hands for
4 few seconds, considering it. Then
he said, "Wait here a minute"
Presently the managing editor
came back, and with him Mr.. Ar.

"Nope. We thought it was best

Lamps in the northland are the chief means of illumination. The lamp with winch we deal today is e common oil lamp The chief figure involved in thb little story is @ gov- ernment hunter set out to capture e specific animal which had been marked study by government rattr- alIsts. This hunter had travelled for q number of days from outpost to outpost where small cabins had been buiit for travellers. This one night the hunter found 6 cabin bare of fSirnishings except an oil lamp. With his fiashlght he examined the lamp and found 1t to be half full of oil but when he tried to light 1t he dis severed that the wick was very siaoTt and would not reach down to the oil. This presented 6 problem and with no equipment 1t seemed dificult to solve.
