THE PETLLEPDTES Nations, from cue point of view, are simply business concerns operating la tie Interest cf their citizens. Tia PhlUipIne Archipelago, with its thousands and mora scattered islands, Ilea "at the cress-roads ot the greatest trade routes of the future." Now that the I'nlted Stites has given substantial evidence of Its benevolent Intention toward the Fllllplncs. it Is timely tad logical to consider the Islands from the business angle, In the Interests of both poples. It Is a startling fact, but true, that of the tropical domains of the earth European pewers own 59 per cent; fome 20 par cent, are Independent, and the United States owns less than one per cent. One Item can be cited to show the significance of this. Rubber enters Drge'y into our commercial life, the United States consuming about 75 per cent, of the world's production, but controlling less than 5 per cent of the sources of f-upply. Great Britain controls SO per cent, of the plantation output of rubber, and 68 per cent, of the total production of the world. The Philippine Archipelgo has been pronounced the richest and most favored group of tropical islands in the world. While the Dutch were developing Java and their other East Indies for muual profit to Inhabitants and eclcnisers, the Fhllllpines slept under the l.ny rule of Spain. The United State has not yet done very much toward the development of the natural resources of the Phillipines, for, properly enough, the first efforts of this country were to raise the standard of living of the inhabitants and place the population on a happy, healthful roclal basis. It does not need any emphasis to point out the magnificent opportunities in the Phlllipines, fronting directly on the mainland cf Asia, and quite capable of sharing in the commercial possibilities of that great territory.

I But it was hardly to bo expected that these ex

perts ehould have turned their attention Into the field In which they muat have turned if we are to Judge by the findings given out recently by tea vice-chairman of the committee which for months has been conducting a nation-wide Inquiry into waete. The public was prepared for .1 report on waste In lumber cr pig iron, and in rutthods of haudllng the.se. A comparison of steam power ae agalnft electric or water power; a study of the lona in labor turn-over, cr in duplicating needlessly certain mechanical operations these things we expected from the engineers on the Job of Investigating. For this reason the findings are astonishing. "In the manufacture end sale of ladies' shoes and millinery." says the report, "there is a great waste through changtng styles. Who Is responsible? The

j manufacturer, the designer and the dealer will tell you the women demand radical and frequent changes.

The woman will earnestly insist that she would be conUnt to wear last year's dress If It ware not out of style."

Other reports will, of course follow, and these may give us more hope than dees this one that the total amount of waste in this country may be reduced as a result of these Investigations. But It eeems that in tills field the engineers struck a snag which they might have seen even without an investigation. perhaps if these worthies had regarded thtir own wearing apparel, they might have learned how much of waate is contributed by the demands of fashicn. They might have experienced, too, an unwillingness on their own part to run counter to fashion's edicts. Undoubtedly this report, when it reaches headquarters, will be laid on the table Indefinitely. When the engineers get back to the subject of mechanical prccesaes and machine operations, they may contribute Fomethlng more valuable to the subject of ellminttion of waste in industry.

AREN'T THEY THE DOMESTIC COUPLE?

THEY JUST CAN'T STOP STYLE vTaen the American Engineering Council's committee appointed by Herbert Hoover began to Investigate the problem of waste In industry with a view to recommending measures for he elimination cf waste, it was of course expected that it would soon return information and proposals. By training, the engineer U strong for efficiency; the detection of waste is with L!a almcst an obsession.

NO DISARMAMENT "EXAMPLE." Secretary Weeks is exactly right In his opposition to any disarming of the United Stages as an "example" to other nations. There must be world-wide partis" or total disarmament, cr none. America would De foolish if It Junked its navy and disbanded its armed organizations without knowledge that every other nation was doins exaetly the same thing at the same time. This world has a lot of Bryans in It, who think that the way to stop aa invading army is to present the commander with a bouquet of roses, but the commander of such an army would be no Bryan. There are nations that are looking for advantages. They talk peace because peace talk Is politics now. But what would they talk if the United States had no navy, no arms factories, no shells, powder or Drmy, while these other nations had great navies, trained armies and mountains of supplies? Has the lesson of the World War been lost on the Bryans?

ONE-THTRD of the graduating class of a larga college for women has decided to side-step matrimony for business. Such decieions are recommended chiefly by their revocaMlity.

A LOT OF NATIVE BORN feel about It as did the German, who. in applying for citizenship, was willing to support the constitution with exception of the eighteenth amendment.

THE LUCT STONE LEAGUE composed of married women has adopted the slogan "keep your own name." That's easy, provided they get the Idea soon enough.

" Mrs. Tracy Patten, 2 Lincoln Ave., Salisbury, Massachusetts. The experience of maternity should not be approached without eareful physical preparation, as it is impossible for a weak sickly wife to bring healthy children into the world. Therefore if a woman ie suffering from a displacement, backache, inflammation, ulceration, bearing-down pains, headaches, nervousness r "the blues" she should profit by Mrs. Patten's experience, take Lydia E. Pinkham's vegetable Compound aad be restored to health.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR

A on o oil c e on e n t Mr. Edsel B. Ford, President of the Ford Motor Company, gives out the following statement: "Another reduction has been made in the list price of all types of Ford cars and the Ford truck to take effect immediately. The list prices, f. o. b. Detroit, arc now as follows:

Old Price Touring $535 Runabout $490 Sedan $795 Coupe $745 Truck Chassis . $545 Tractor

New Prkt $510 $465 $760 $695 $495 $625

AH prices F.O.B. Detroit, war tax and delivery charge additional. "The big reductions last fall were made in anticipation of low material costs which we are now getting the benefit of. and this fact together with increased manufacturing efficiency and the unprecedented demand for Ford cars, particularly during the past three months permitting maximum production, have made another price reduction possible immediately. "Ford business for April and May, 1921. was greater by 56.633 cars and trucks than for the same two months in 1920; in fact, the demand has been even greater than the supply, so that our output has been limited, not by unfilled orders but by manufacturing facilities. "During May we produced 101.424 Ford cars and trucks for sale in the United States alone the biggest month in the history of our company and our factories and assembly plants are no-.v working on a 4,000 car daily schedule for June. "The Fordson tractor is still being sold at less than the cost to produce on account of the recent big price reductions, and it is impossible, therefore, to make any further cut in the price of the tractor." Can you afford to go without a car any longer when Fords are selling at these new low prices? There is no reason now why you should delay purchasing a Ford car. Ford truck, or Fordson tractor. We will gladly advise you concerning the delivery of a Fordson tractor or the particular type of car in which you are interested Just phone us or drop us a card. Authorized Dealer E. N.
