NATIONAL AFFAIRS By Frank P. Litschert. We are all familiar with the bld freelrade slogan, that ‘if we are to! sell abroad, we must buy abroad.” 1 The inference of course is that the protective tariff keeps us from buying abroad, merely because it equalizes the cost of production at home and abroad in competitive articles, and gives the American worker ai even chance with the illypaid labor of Europe and the pauper labor of the Orient. Nothing, of course, couid be farther from the truth than this inference. Because of the protective tariff. Uncle Sain does not rest behind an unscalable wall producing everything at home that he consumes. On the other hand, as the president of the Brookmire Service put it the other day, Uncle Sam is the world’s best customer. This economist calls attention to the fact that we sume three-fourths of the worid’sl |:\.w silt, two-thirds »>f its crude rub-j Her and half of its tin. Just think I Ithat over for a inmner.*! The United! States use three times as much silk ( as the re.-t of- the world put •:-a get her, twice as much rubber and J fc. .y as much tin as the other na-1 •i -as ■ f ’he globe. Then we consume | ;- :e coffee than any other nation,' and-great quantities of tea, sugar,} ftl fruits and other coni' o<ii- j ties which come from abroad. Andi yet the free traders have '.l-e neivej to sh -.it that the protective tariff s. wrong because “if we are to sell! abroad we must buy abroad?’ i Our. protective tariff does not pi e-j | vent our buying three times as i ich i raw silk as the rest of the v iid jcombined, twice as much rubber., as much tin. coffee and so on down the lie. On the contrary, it is this prole twe policy which enables us to do 'these things and to remain, as a na- ■ ■•■!-.. t’.e’w- lid’s best,customer. The' * Our protective tariff laws pro-! tec-- ■•nly th'se c>-m,m.<-Jities, the pho-. ;du c t ion of w hich, come into com-j petition w th. cheap labor costs’ abrbadmßy maintaining through pro-1 lection, :• higher standard of living; than the rest of the world, we have 1 enabled our workers to own auto--mobiles, radios, electric refrigera-• y, ,have enabled them to use as -' ■ eh coffee -nd tea as they desire, • arid have.made it possible for their ..< .i.-. - - ~■;«! dai.-ghte-s, in m-r->na! times, to wear silk dresses and -//- h- -e. !’. is because our workers and their families are such good fliers -and such good spenders, that three tin es as much raw | o k and-twice as much rubber as the; rest of the world combined. Fpr the] (workers of Europe do not. disport ! j them-.elves in rubber-tired autos and. their families- seldom dress in silk. I The worker over there is foi . indeed who is able to provide food ' :ind a comfortable., shelter for his hfaniiiy, not only during periods of i depression but in normal times. | To sum up, it is a simple sequence ’of conditions: our protective tariff ! gives us the highest living standard land the greatest consuming demand i in the world, and this enables us to ! buy the products of the world, like ‘silk, strnar, rubber, tea. coffee and tin . in much greater quantities than any ! .her nation on earth, and it so en- • al'les Uncle Sam to become the best jeasiomer of the rest of the world. ! l he the< ry of the free trader, therei re, to the effect that the protective : tariff keeps us from buying abroad, and so selling abroad, is no only illog- ■ Teal but actually silly, | The less we worry about foreign • markets and turn our attention to building up the great home market and restoring our national business > to. normal, the better off we •will be j and/ the better off the rest of the w orld will be. Our foreign trade, ■ with the usual assistance given it , h'y our government agencies, will , ■ then take care of itself. ! - .—.— —o ■ FISHERMEN HAVE LUCK.

WILT ATTACKS SWEET CORN OVER INDIANA ; Vegetable gardeners in many parts of the state are troubled with wilting of their sweet corn plants, at ■ various stages of growth, up to almost the mature stage of the plant. This disease, known as sweet corn wilt, usually is most severe in the earlier varieties of sweet corn, such as Golden Bantam and Crosby, ac- . cording to Dr. C. T. Gregory, plant ,[pathologist of the Purdue University j Agricultural Experiment Station. Lat-1 ■! er varieties, such as Country Gentle-1 man, Evergreen and others usually , are n °t troubled by the disease. The wilt often is accompanied by ‘ the presence of insects of some sort, the larvae of the 12 spotted cucumber beetle, or the southern corn root worm among the most common. The ,' insects act as agencies in spreading I the disease from one plant to another. 'The diseased plant will wilt, and [ / when the stalks are split open the j sap tubes will be found to be yellow. , filled with the bacteria which cause the disease. There is nothing that can be done j at this time of year to prevent the spread of the disease, says Dr. Gre- ! gory. But there are several things that may he done to reduce the injury in the next year’s crop. ?Seed cun. sh- u!d be selected only from healthy plants; the seed may be treat[ed withone of the organic mercury ! compounds with good results, although seed treatment bn poor seed will not be satisfactory? And the jndieations are that fertilizing with 150 to 200 pounds of a good complete I fertilizer, applied in the row or in the hill, will give the plants stimulus enough that they will overcome the] disease without shewing any ill es-i sects. | o I Southern educators are again argu-1 [ing the question whether the Southern whites get their soft drawl from : . the negroes of vice versa. About as! hard to determine as the old one about which, came first, the egg or the : chicken.

THE DOLE—A WARNING • ■ Unemployment insurance is receiv- ' ing attention from many groups in ! the United States in addition to the I congressional committee which was appointed especially to look into that subject. The Industrial Relations Counselors have just published a detailed report on “Unemployment Insurance in Great Britain,” in which many defects in the system and difficulties in its operation are pointed out Advocates of a dole system in this; country may find it enlightening. Before the war, unemployment in Great Britain ranged between 3 and 8 per cent of the industrial employable population. From 1920 to 19z8 unemployment ranged from 8 to 20 per cent, reaching a peak of 21 per cent last March. The insurance system I w as calculated to take care of a mix- ; imurn of less than half that percentI age. That is the reason why the government has found it necessary to lend the insurance fund $480,000,000 in the last few years. Great Britain’s decline as a great commercial power can not be understood unless this heavy drain upon industry is taken into consideration. The chief causes of unemployment in that country were found to be the | recline in export trade, the substitu-

tion of oil and water power for coal, and revolutionary developments in the textile industry. British industry came into sharp competition with foreign enterprises. Methods and machinery were found in many instances to be inefficient. Under ordinary conditions industry wpuld have responded to changing conditions, but British plants were under pressure as a result of the dole. Modernization was postponed and additional funds poured into the unemployment insurance fund. Even those industries which were prosperous and had no unemployment' of their own were taxed heavily to maintain idle men thrown out of obsolete plants in some other industry. The result was to hang a sTone around the neck oi British industry preventing its recovery of lost ground. As this burden becomes heavier the drain upon industry is inpFleased and the whole British economic system is weakened. The dole tends to postpone necessary economic adjustments and thereby handicaps both industry and labor.— Washington Post. Wouldn’t you hate to be a schoolboy in South America and have to learn the names of all the revolutionary generals and the dates of all the revolutions? ,
