DECLINE OF ENGLAND RESULT OF PRESENT POLICIES,SAYSSHAW (By Associated Press) CHICAGO. April 1. Advocating a policy of producing more than one consumes, Leslie M. Shaw, former secretary of the treasury, today addressed the National Lumber Manufacturers' association in session here.
. "To illustrate a fundamental truth
please assume two communities, equal in population, natural resources and possibilities,'' said Mr. Shaw. "The one believes they will best conserve their happiness by conserving their toil. They seek to ascertain and practice the least essential hours of labor necessary to supply their requirements. The other know their happi
ness will be enhanced by producing)
their maximum, and consuming their minimum. These cheerfully toll, as did our forefathers, from 12 to 16 hours per day. What will be the result? MThe one will continue to live as
they began, while the other will find
ineir surplus so invested tnat it wui itself produce and continually increase more and more. Very soon they will have more food than they can eat, More clothes than they can wear, houses abundant, and the proceeds of their surplus, whether sold abroad or to each other, will evidence itself in good roads, schools, churches and eleemosynary institutions. Production in excess of consumption always 3-eveals itself. It cannot be concealed. "While consumption equal to production is equally manifest, not only in localities in highly civilized countries, brtt more apparent still barbarous and semi-civilized portions of the world. Wealth Is Destroyed. "At the end of six thousand years of human history the industrious and thrifty those who produced more Khan-they consumed had transmitted tthelr. surplus from father to son, so Shat when the world war "began the wealth of the world, consisting of this surplus - and the advance in market value of real estate, ore deposits, timber and other natural resources was estimated at about $750,000,000,000, or 5500 per capita for the human race. . "The nations emerged from the war with an aggregate debt of about one-
third of this pre-war aggregate wealth. The fact that the book value of the property not destroyed . has been so inflated that an equally favorable trial : balance appears, disguises the truth to the thoughtless only. An astounding portion of .the pre-war wealth of the world is gone, and gone forever. "Everyone concedes that we are facing a period of reconstruction but many seem not to realize that there is only one way to restore what has been destroyed, and that is by producing more than we consume. , Nations may be economical but individuals only can be thrifty. Germany Is Recovering, "Charles M. Schwab recently returned from Europe and reported that Germany is recovering at a pace that will astonish the world. The reason is simple. The German people are both industrious and thrifty. This will enable them to discharge any reparation demand that the' conscience of the world will impose, provided only that does not reach the breaking point of their courage. Industry and thrift will solve any social or economic problem "Mr. Schwab, you will observe, did not comment on conditions in England, but many equally observing business
men believe England is on the verge of collapse. No people can survive the consumption of their surplus, and the people of England seem bent upon commandeering wealth and using it in gratituities improperly called wages to the unemployed, pensions to the aged and In other socialistic ways. We seem inclined to follow the lead of England rather than Germany. If we
do Germany will ultimately rule the world industrially and financially, which is all she ever sought to do. Her attempt to dictate with the iron hand was for no other purpose than to rule industrially. ( "Few would recommend selling the power-plant in aid of unemployed, but taking the profits of business for the bonuses and welfare work is, economically speaking-, on an exact par. Is'ot many men of means are foolish enough to invest their fortunes in industries, where only five peT cent succeed, knowing that if successful they will have to pay to the government 60 per cent of their net profits, and 75 per cent of the remainder in personal sur-taxes. "The effect is already evident. Industries languish, and non-employment multiplies. Unless we again consent that even the wealthy may increase their wealth, and be encouraged to invest it in wealth producing enterfnses, wage-earners and all others of modest incomes, now largely exempted from taxalion, must practice thrift or , the republic has already reached the zenith of her greatness."

Increase Salaries Government Officials (By Associated Press) VICTORIA, B. C. April 1.

$7,500 to $9,000 and other ministers

Bars Communication "A husband or wife is not competent to testify against the other on such allegations," the decision said. The justice decided that the affidavits to which letters were appended contained matters that Mr. Stillman
could not testify to, and it was upon, this ground that the communications were barred. Justice Morschauser pointed out that his inhibition against admitting the alleged messages from Beauvais to Mrs. Stillman applied only to the motion under consideration, and that they might be offered again in connection with later motions. Referring to the alleged letter written to Mr. Stillman by his wife to the admission of which her attorneys objected and which it was charged by counsel for the banker she wrote "in a moment of hysteria, implicating herself," the decision said. "Communications and transactions between husband and wife were early
recognized as privileged and neither could be compelled to disclose what took place between them and neither was a competent witness to testify as to such transactions or communications of a confidential nature or induced by the marital relations: "From experience it was found that far less evil would result from the exclusion of such testimony than from its admission. It may in individual cases work hardship, but the destruction of confidence between a husband and wife would cause much misery and affect the marriage relation. This rule is founded upon sound public policy."
