Toward a New Treaty
New York Times)

New York Times
Secretary Hulls announcement that the United
States and Great Britain have agreed to begin nego-
tations for reciprocal tariff treaty is important
news and good news There is a large amount of
trade at stake But more than this it seems certain
that any step which strengthened the economic ties
between the two most powerful democraces would
have stabizing influence in all parts of the world
Certain special difficulties have been blocking
the path of an Anglo American agreement In recent
years the two countries have pursued divergent trade
policies Britain relying heavily pacts giving
special preference to the Domnons while the United
States has generalized the results of its tariff bar
gaming for the benefit of all nations the most
faVored-natlon principle An added difficulty is the
TACT that British and American products compete to
larger extent than do the products, let us saw of
The United States and Brazil of the United States
and number Of other countries with which we have
concluded tariff treaties These difficulties however
have long been evident. And if decision has now
been reached to proceed with negotiations it is rea-
sonabe to believe that it is because way has been
found to solve the major problems
The trade treaties which Secretary Hull has been
negotiating lead logically to expansion of Ameri-
can business and an increase of employment. They
are sounder method of procedure toward these
detectives, than is offered by plans to curta the
output of American farms or American factories or
by plans to widen the distribution of employment by
the device of sharing work" For it is "a fallacy to
believe that the wealth of the country is really in
creased If 1t produces less if twice many people
are compelled to work the same total number of
of goods Secretary Hulls method is not based on
these false assumptions. 1t does not proceed the
theory that all grow richer by working less
and by producing less. Instead it calls for an in
crease of wealth by the reopening of markets which
tend naturally to expand they are freed
of artificial barriers to profitable exchange of goods
That is why Mr.. Hulls policies are genuinely con-
structive force.

SMALL WONDER

There is quite to-de-do about the "rackets

following enlightening titbit from the New Yorker
Last Friday night gay party of four was
standing in front of the International Casino
wondering where to go next, when one of the
ladies said that she wanted to try an expert
ment that had been in the back of her mind
for long time She had always wondered
what sort of person would pick up a coin
dropped on the sidewalk. One of the gentle
men oblgingly tossed quarter into a small
hedged-n enclosure at the right of the Casino
entrance. The jingle Immediately attracted
handful OF passersby, two of whom, aston
shingly enough, also tossed in coins Other

people stopped, and, readily grasping that
coin throwing was the thing to, do. threw in
coins. Finally there was ring of thirty or
forty standing around all of whom were in the
kitty. They kept looking knowingly inside the
hedge, waiting for whatever it was that was
going to happen. Nothing did happen, of
course. After five minutes there appeared
from around the corner of Forty-fifth Street
a small, sleek man in derby hat, violet muf-
fler and form fitting chesterfield He stopped
and looked for a moment; then he edged his
way through the crowd, stepped over the
hedge. and picked up all the coins counting
them as he did SO "Four-seventy," he said
aloud, pocketing the total Again he edged
his way through the crowd, and continued
down Broadway, After while the crowd dis
persed somehow managing to look as if that
was what they had expected all along

Newbold Morris for president of City
Council-and one Democrat, Joseph
D. McGoldrick, for controller.
Whether La Guardia wins or loses
in the Republican primary, he is sure
to be on the general election ballot in
November. He is the candidate of
the Fusionists, and of the American
Labor party an offshoot of Labor's
Non-Partisan League and a stanch
supporter of the President.
He has tradition to hurdle: The
tradition that Tammany Hall never
loses twice in succession to re

But there is also an ace up his
sleeve. His Socialist rival. Norman
Thomas. has offered to throw the
votes of his followers behind the Mayor
if that will help labor get a start to-
ward national labor party for 1910.

NEW DEAL FACES
TEST |NNEW YORK
Primary Thursday to Show
If Roosevelt Still Holds
Voters.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 1.-THE
strength of President Roosevelt's grip
on the rank and file Of the Democratic
party will get its first big test since his
reelection in New York City on
Thursday.
The city that day will choose its
primary nominees for the November
battle for mayor.
The face of the ballot shows only a
hight for four major offices-mayor,
district attorney for Manhattan, con-
troller and president of City Council
but underneath is far more impor-
tant clash.
Tammany Hall or the New Deal?
AL Smith or Franklin Roosevelt?
Those are the choices the voters
must make in the Democratic primary.
Senator Royal S. Copeland or former
Judge jeremiah Mahoney for mayor?
Copeland Is Tammany's Man.
Copeland stands for Tammany Hall.
He was chosen on the advice of Smith.
He has made his campaign an attack
on the President, whom he has called
personal dictator" He has dis
claimed all friendship to the New
Deal and accused Postmaster General
James A. Farley Of building a party
machine" on which Farley can ride
to the Governors chair.
Mahoney stands for the New Deal.
His campaign speeches have been ex-
hortations for support of the Presi-
dent. He has the backing of the DEM
ocratlc leaders of the counties of
queens, Kings, Richmond and the
Bronx-leaders who are friendly TO
Farley.
Control of almost two million Dem
ocratlc votes is the prize of the battle.
More than q fourth OF the New York
State total, which in 1910 will swing
47 electoral votes for President. No
other State has so much to say about
who will next occupy the White House.
What will it be-Tammany or Roose-
welt?
Tiger Hungry For Jobs.
II Tamrnany wins the primary and
the November election, it will mean
some $4,000 municipal jobs with
which to grid the Tigers loins, lolns
that are lean from four virtually
patronage-less years of the unfriendly
New Deal in Washington and the
equally cool Fusion administration of
Mayor Fiorello La Guardia in New
York
