IMPORTANCE OF DANzIG
(Riverside PreSS)

Without the Polish corridor which
gives access to the twin ports of Danzg
and Gdynia, Poland would be the largest
country in the world without direct ac-
cess to the sea. About so per cent of all
Poland's foreign trade passes through
these two ports.
Danzig has become a more active trad
ing center since being made a free city
by the Treaty of Versailles than it was
when it belonged to Germany before the
World war. In 1913, the total cargo sent
through Danzig amounted to Pip. 100
tons. In 1888 the total tonnage was
1927 195 and during the first five months
of 1889 there was 33 per cent increase
over the corresponding figure for the
previous year
This increase has occurred in spite of
the fact that since 1925 Poland has built
up Gdynia, only five or six miles from
Danzig. from village harboring 200
fishing families into the largest port of
the Baltic sea in volume of commerce.
with population of about 100000. Gdny-
MIA is almost entirely Polish city in
population, just as Danzig, with popu-
latin of about 100000, is largely Ger
man. The population of Poland is over
32,000000.
In 1898, 5,563,237 tons of cargo were
exported through Danzig, 7,646,9O2 tons
through Gdynia. Imports were. reSpec-
lively, 1,563.95S and 1,526,536 tons. All
but about 10 per cent of these exports
and imports were en- route to or from
Poland
The Poles contend that even with its
phenomenal growth, Gdynia is not suffi-
cient to handle all of Poland's maritime
trade During the last two years, 32 per
cent of all Polish foreign trade has
cleared through Danzig, and the increase
for the first five months of this year
was over twice as large in percentage
figures as the corresponding increase for
the first five months of this year was
over twice as large in percentage figures
as the corresponding increase for Gdy-
MIA Furthermore. Danzig is at the mouth
of the Vistula, which carries much river
borne freight from Poland.
The Polish government has rejected a
German proposal to give Poland a free
harbor at Danzig if that city is returned
to Germany. Such an arrangement would
constitute an obvious threat to POlandS
economic independence.
The value of Poland's foreign trade
was about S460,000,000 each year in 1887
and 1888, at current exchange rates.
Chief exports are coal, lumber, grain,
coke, chemicals and metal products.
Chief imports are foodstuffs, including
sugar. butter and eggs, and minerals
and paper.
Nearly 20 per cent of Polands imports
come from Germany, 11.9 per cent come
from the United States and the same
percentage from Great Britain. Germany
takes about one-fifth of Poland's exports,
Great Britain nearly as much, and the
United States, 84 per cent.

Willis Thornton's Editorial on:
We Are All In This Thing together

suredly all hang. separately
The tax burden is not going to
be appreciably lower in any near
term future. The national debt, the
state and municipal debts, are facts
and not theories. They must be
paid from taxes.
But not all taxes, even though
equal in amount, are equally bur
densome on individual taxpayers,
and not all have an equal affect on
the economic process. There is
room for the application to taxation
of a great deal more study. 1t is
perfectly possible for a certain tax
to yield a great deal of money
and yet to have such other social
and business effects, as to cost the
treasury the loss of other revenuS
and cancel most of its own effect.
This would seem to have been the
effect of the undistributed profits
tax. It was repealed, not because
corporations affected did not like
it. but because the effects on the
economy as a whole were not in
practice good.
Sincere collaboration aimed at
making our tax system an intelligent
whole rather than a patchwork OF
compromises between elements out
to get each other, can be of the
greatest service to the country. We
hope Acting Secretary Hanes gets
the collaboration he asks, and that
he makes the best possible use of it.

ONION SYRUP
(Emporia Gazette)

If you are anywhere around 40, the
term "onion syrup will mean something
to you. When you were a child, your
mother made it by pressing sugared slic-
ed onions between two dinner plates, with
a flatiron on them. You had to take it
in big tablespoon two or three times a
day, and it certainly did the business
For hundreds of years onion syrup has
been a panacea for bad cold. 1t is one
of the universal folk medicines that have
persisted into this day of science.
And now science has surrendered The
scientists say that onions contain some
chemicals which relieve the irritation
and in some way kill the bugs that cause
bad colds.

Is that all the girls have to be

3. She must not be more than

1. She must not be married (She
can be engaged, but if she's mar

C. If you can sing.
D. If you can make a fourth

E. If you can prepare food for
babies.
Now, if you can do all those
things, you stand pretty good
show. If you live in the East you

The tax problem Is certain to be
one of the most important to come
before the next Congress in Janu-
ary. Therefore it is good sign to
see that efforts are already on
foot to put as much common sense
as possible behind the tax revision
that is certain next year.
Acting Secretary of the Treasury
Hanes has sent letter to many
prominent business men and Or
ganizations asking their help in a
complete study of the tax situa-
tion This is our common problem. "
Hanes wrote, land a successful eff
fort toward it's solution will depend
largely on our mutual and sympa-
thetic understanding of the question
that confront both the government
and the tax payer
Now that is a very fine spirit
in which to approach the problem
of taxation.
After all. we are all in this
thing together. The big manufact-
urer worried about things like the
undistributed profits tax just re-
pealed, the small business man bur-
dened with excessive bookkeeping
and plaguey small tax worries, the
employed man goaded by host of
small and largely hidden sales taxes
and the unemployed man keeping
himself afloat on relief or work
projects-they are all in a very real
sense in the same boat.
The miseries of all OF them are
due to the single cause of the break
down of the economic machine.
Each is carrying and must carry
his peculiar burden, for none can
recover until all recover together

fellow-rebels to unity during revo-
lutionary days by saying III we
