U. S, NORWAY TRADE IS MENACED BY HIGH RATE OF EXCHANGE

A Home for Peace Societies By FREDERICK J. HASKIN

the high rate of exchange of the Amer- armaments has been formed, with 29

Iran dollar and -which has already af

fected American exports with various other other Kuropean countries. Figures of Norway's imports for 1919, recently made public, show that about one-third of the Norwegian imports were from the United States. American exporters gained a hold in the Norwegian markets are time when Norway's chief source of supply was closed. Requirements which could not be covered in the regular markets nearer home, as was the custom prior to the war, had to be taken from America, or not at all.

It is now being pointed out, how-

of the 70-odd peace-advocating organizations already enrolled as active or cooperating members. Such well known organizations as the American Federation of Labor, the National Grange, and National Women's Trade Union League, and the American Union against Militarism are among the members of the new council. The ideas of the organizations as regards peace possibilities range from the firm belief that absolute disarmament could be safely achieved to moderate views on limi

tation of ship building. For the first

in order that the United States may

maintain this position in Norwegian trade, it is essential that American manufacturers stipulate virtually the same terms of credit as other countries. The dollar now costs more than twice as many kroner as it did prior to 1914. This high dollar rate makes imported American goods so expensive that similar goods from other sources, home-made or imported from Germany, can be sold cheaper and which eventually will crowd American articles off the market. Merchants suggest that if the trade relations between Norway and the United States are to be maintained at anything like thfir present level, it wiil be necessary for the American

their common interest the promotion of peace regardless of thier differences of opinion as to how peace should be brought about. The national council which represents these organizations as a clearing house for their peace interests has

( The house is strategically situated) across the street from the State War; and Navy building, with the Pan-Amer-j ican building, where conference meetings will be held, only two blocks' away. It is an old historic residence. In early presidential administrations j its high-ceilinged parlors must havej seen formal balls and dinners of the official set. But like many other oldj residences in Washington, it has beenj stranded, as the fashionable section!

of the city wandered away from the neighborhood of the executive man

sion. After these dignified homes begin to look a little seedy and Stand vacant awhile, they meet one of two fates: either they become boarding houses or else office rooms. The new council's headquarters, 73-' Seventeenth street, became a government office as far back as 1860 General Grant had his headquarters there, convenient to the war department, during the Civil war.. After that, it became a depot quartermaster's office, and was used for this purpose through the recent war. The Peace House Now, after being the scene of war

parting of the ways, but without being fully aware of it. "The organizations that are working for limitation of armaments write us that everywhere there is a growing demand for a lightening of the heavy burden that the last war has left on the people. They say that the people of America are counting on the conference, and will be overwhelmingly disappointed if the meeting comes to nothing. They will regard it as a decision for war. It will mean that we shall go at our present rate, competing in ship building programs and war inventions, and the next war will be 10 times worse than the last with its seven and a half million lives lost, and its staggering effect on the civilized

world. "It is possible to prevent this next war, if the people will cooperate wholeheartedly. Most of the important labor groups, led by Mr. Gompers, approve reduction of armaments. And besides these, organizations of farmers and women, religious bodies and

educational organizations have joined j with the societies that work only fori the advancement of peace to make up1 the council. Allowing for members oil one organization belonging to others as well, we have at the least count,! 7,000,000 people back of us. We need their support and the support of other millions of Americans as well." Mr. Libby pointed out that the president of the General Federation of Women's Clubs one of the co-operating organizations in the council, said: "All the things that we club women work for citizenship, education, public health, good institutions, conservation-, home life, child welfare, art, music, literature are arts and activities of peace. War sweeps them into the dust heap." Other member organizations have expressed similarly despair at making progress in their constructive program so long as war looms ahead to destroy their work.

Besides furnishing information and encouraging people to come and talk over the conference at its headquarters, the council is to try to eliminate

duplication of effort between its member organizations so far as their interest in peace problems is concerned. Besides the numerous organizations interested in limitation of armament among other things, there are on an incomplete list, 16 organizations whose sole aim is to work tor world peace. Certainly some of these organizations spend time and money collecting similar statistics and appealing to the same people, whereas they might to advantage co-operate more both in sharing data and in outlining their field work.

by Mrs. Mary Preston Cooking Expert and Food Analyst Heekin's was put to a real test by a friend of mine. About four o'clock one afternoon, she remembered that she had to make a three-layer chocolate cake for a church supper that night. There wasn't a speck of baking powder in the house, so she went next door and borrowed a can of Heekin's. Now she had never used Heekin's and she wanted her cake to be a big success. Naturaliy she felt nervous about the result. But the cake was a wonder she had never made a better one. She bought a can of Heekin's Baking Powder the next day and has been using it ever since. She says that she hasn't had one failure with Heekin's. I have used Heekin's and I really believe that a better baking powder cannot be made. It is absolutely pure there are no foreign ingredients added to create an unnatural effervescence or to give a false impression of quality. Heekin's is full-strength, and the strength remains down to the last spoonful. You save money by using Heekin's. For it costs much less than any other baking powder that even approaches it in quality. And any woman can get successful baking results with it. This is guaranteed. No wonder Heekin's is the favorite with thousands of women. If anything you bake using Heekin's does not turn out to your entire satisfaction, the price of the full can of baking powder and the price of the ingredients in whatever you bake will be returned to you. Simply list the prices and send with your name and address to The Heekin Company, Cincinnati, Ohio. Buy a can today and use it you'll like Heekin's.
