Trade Barriers
Real War Cause
Dr.. H. G. Moulton
Council Speaker

Most Of the factors for enduring
peace on earth already were In
operation = century ago. and only
collapsed when American admin
istrations after 1850 led the world
In setting up barriers to trade,
according TO DIR. Harold G. Moul-
ton. president Of the Brookings
Institute, who spoke Friday night
before the Tacoma World Affairs
council.
The director of the economic
research institute sees two major
essentials To the worldwide in
crease In living standards which
is essential to peace after the war.
One Is technical advances increas-
ing productive efficiency of people
and the other making raw mate
rails accessible to all nations.
Described ~ Bunk"
Under ordinary conditions" he
said. there has been no difficulty
In buying materials abroad. There
is great deal of bunk about that.
We could buy rubber In the Dutch
East Indies as cheap as II we
owned the Indies. Colonies are
the most overrated possessions
the world ever has known"
Jspan's. he said. have been
proven by economic studies. 10
have been liability ever since
she has had them.
Hasn't Been Reflect
The economic expert had no
sympathy for the theories Of the
have nots," the "overpopulated"
nations. The have nots," he
noted. always have prospered by
trading with the rest Of the world.
Stealing other nations land has
been no relief for their populations.
THE entire migration from
Japan in 20 years to colonies.
South America. Australia and the
United States has not been equal
to a years increase in birth rate. )"
he said. I'm fact. II all the mer-
chant marine of Japan did nothing
but carry people from the islands,
II could not keep up with the
births"
That Japan. Germany and Italy
are not able To control their own
birth rates, said DR.. Moulton. In
no excuse for stealing other peo-
Piles lands.
Makes Comparison
1T b just the same a. saying"
he commented. that because j
have Is children In my family.
I'm going to move in on YOU"
After pointing to the fallacies
which cause wars, DIR. Moulton
counted three alternatives after
the war for the United States.
One would be isolated economy,
like the old Jspan's hermit king
dom. Second would be close asso-
citation with the British Empire
and such other nations as wished
to align themselves with the
Anglo-ssxon group.
Third would be some association
of nations which would maintain
sufficient police power. possibly
with a powerful air fleet, to en-
force peace.
Recalls Civil War
OF such an association he said:
"Ali our national states have been
built up from warning segments.
Equally natural to a permanent
peace would be the police force.
he said.
1t always has been necessary
TO control by force of arms those
who break the peace. This nation
once had to resort TO arms 10 force

SeLhidge Field
Private Draws
$40 Monthly

Probably one of the highest
paid privates in the Air Corps is
stationed at Selfridge Field.
Starting Nov. 1, 1912, Uncle Sam
will pay him $l40 a month.
Most privates receive $50 a
month. But Pvt. Theodore Roy,
AZ, of this field will get $40 less
per month than the base pay of
the lowest grade commissioned
officer, a second lieutenant. And
there is a mighty good reason for
Pvt. Roy's big pay: a wife and
six children.
Seventeen years ago Pvt. Roy
was a member of the 21st Infan-
try division at Ft. Sam Houston.
Tex. Recently, he was restored
to duty in the Air Corps and as.
signed to Selfridge Field. Now
that the government is making
provisions for soldiers depend
ents, he is ready to carry on
where he left off II years ago.
The War Department pays a
wife $50 a month and $40 for
each child except the first for
whom $12 is allowed. Twenty
two dollars of the $50 is con-
tributed by the soldier. A sta
tionary engineer before re-en-
tering the army, Pvt. worked IN
a Mount Clemens greenhouse.
Inasmuch as the government Will
not start making dependency
payments until November l, wife
Ruth and six children will draw
on his savings for their present
support.
The family resides at las Bar
bara ST., Mount Clemens. Mrs.
Roy is 35 years old and the
children are Eursule, 3; Thelma,
4; Norman, S; Claudette, 8; Nj
cholas, 10, and Louis, IA. Pvt.
Roy reads and writes French,
was born in Newport, County OF
Gaspe, Quebec, Canada. He has
resided IA years in Mount Glenn

Chief Justice
Denies Report
an Rubber Probe

SUGAR HILL, N. H., July "a
Up Chief Justice Harlan F.
Stone said today that he did not
intend to accept the task OF
making an independent inquiry
in the rubber situation to end
present controversies over the
problem.
Here for his summer vacation,
the Chief Justice, when told
stories had been published to
the effect that President Roose-
Welt had asked him to make
such an inquiry, said:
II haven't accepted any such
responsibility and / do not in
tend to-"
The New York Times, in a
Washington dispatch, said that
President Roosevelt had been
counseled to nominate some one
in whom the public would have
full confidence to get to the
bottom of the situation, so that
an official policy could be based
on the findings.
The Chief Justice said he had
no further comment on the re-
port.

SeIesmanship
in Reverse is
h.-BeIITheme

Salesmanship in the reverse,
in an endeavor to save telephone
facilities to help the war effort,
is being practised by the Mich
igan Bell Telephone Company
today, according to R. F. Wins
low, manager for the company.
That is particularly true with
respect to the use of long dis
lance lines, he stated, inasmuch
as those circuits are congested
with military and war produc-
ton calls. On all calls, both
local and long distance, tele-
phone users also are asked to be
brief. Inability of the company
to expand its system sufficiently
to care for the increasing bust
ness because of the scarcity of
materials more urgently needed
for war is given as the reason.
The lines to Washington are
more congeSted with calls than
any others in the country, the
telephone manager said, and
customers of the company are
being requested in newspaper
advertising and over the radio
not to call the Nations capital
at all unless the particular call
directly concerns the war effort
Service users also are re-
quested in the company's adver-
Using to restrict their long dis
lance calls to various other war
production localities into which
the lines are abnormally busy
Those areas include all Pacific
coast points. Albany, NY; At.
lanta, Baltimore, Boston, Buff.
falo, Columbus, O.; Dayton, In
dianapolis, Louisville, Mime.
apolis, st. Paul, Muncie, Ind.
Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, st
Louis, Syracuse, and Warren, O.
in addition to Washington.
Sault Ste. Marie and Mt
Clemens telephone users also
are requested not to make any
but important local calls be-
cause of congestion Of the
switchboards.
