We don't want that. ' In time, we shall find k way to handle Industrial disturbances more satisfactorily than they have been handled recently. But Jt won't come over night. Thing! like that take time. Meanwhile, we muddle along and take whatever penalties are Involved. IF the East, whose Industrial atructure Is based upon coal, can't mine coal enough to meet its needs at a pride It can pay and still meet competition, It will begin to lose Its supremacy to the West, where coal is unimportant. (IF, that is, the West can han dle water power and oil econ omy in such a manner as to hold Its costs down.) If water freights, which In the past have been so low as to con centrate Industry around the great ports, rise sharply, the. In terior cities will be better able to compete for Industrial develop ment. As predominant Industrial and commercial areas lose the spe cial advantages that have made them predominant, OTHER areas srisc to take their place. That's the way It goes. CANADIAN ships suits frnm"hfaf fic. Money derived from A Vancouver for Shanghai, carrying a shlpwnt of gold bul lion valued at $3,000,01)0. This bul lion Is said to be part of a U. S. loan to China. Why are we shipping gold to China? - The Chinese can't cat It. They can't wear It. They can't use It for shelter to fend off the storm. What good will It do them? Well, It will help to hold down their money Inflation (it now takes upwards of 5.000 Chinese dollars to buy one (J. S. dollar) to the point where the Chinese may not have to use a wheelbar row to carry their money to mar ket WHen they want to buy some thing. For the moment, that Is a1xul all the rood this gold will do. In China, as elsewhere, only PRO DUCTION of things will cur the monev Inflation. The Chinese, apparently, would still rather fight than pToduce. SUBMARINES are being sold from time to time on the' war surplus market. Two are offered In Philadelphia.

STANTON i- .Roseburg's new'pnrking meters took in more than $1500 during the first two weeks of operation, the city council was informed at its Inst regular meeting. This- was con siderably more in the way of financial return than had been expected, and probably will be the high point in receipts. A good many dollars were received in the first week as the result of curiosity. We saw many people dropping nickles and pennies into the machines to satisfy their own curiosity as to how the meters operated, or in demonstrating the method of operation to others. In fact, we too, poked a few pennies into the machines just to show off our superior knowledge to some of our ncqunlntences who had no previous experience with parking meters. A good deal of "experimentation" went on during the first week of operation. Pcoplo tried All kinds of stunts to "beat" the meter's. Police found slugs, tokens, beer checks, tinfoil, wire, lead blanks and numerous other objects in the ma chines, as motorists attempted to avoid paying the legiti- """- 1 '"" ' j " 'ft" v.vv j.i.iir. win IUCW.-I uu. doM not Provl('e Peking time. Consequently police spent a (mod mAnv hnnra mnklncr ronnlra Attempts to use other objects In place of pennies and nickels, however, are decreasing and fewer service calls are required. It Is rather Interesting to observe how people of Rosehurg and surrounding area have accepted the parking meter idea, In contrast with the numerous "fights" in some of our neighboring towns. Salom, for instance, has been arguing the parking meter question for more than a year. At the last election a measure which would forbid the city council to install meters failed of passage, leaving the council free to proceed. Grants Pass, Coos Hay, and Klamath Falls have had "knock-down-drag-out" battles. It is seldom that parking meters have been Installed without considerable protest. However, the sys tem was Installed in Roseburg with but little vocal opposi tion and no organized resistance. Now, with only two weeks' experience, the meters are being appreciated. "I spent 20 cenU today and it was the best 20 cents 1 ever spent," one out-of-town man told us. "Heretofore when I came Into Roseburg 1 had to park two, three or sometimes six blocks from the business dis trict, carrying bundles to the car. Today I could find a parking spot reasonably near any business house and saved myself a good many blocks of extra walking. I only spent 20 cents althougti I had my car downtown throughout most of the day. Hut I was moving around a good deal and frequently found unused time on meters. But then, too, I left some time for other people out of my 20 cents." Many people have the idea that receipts from parking meters may be used as general revenue and applied to various city expenses. This is not true. The courts have ruled thHt parking meters are. policemen engaged in traffic work or to improve traffic conditions. If the city attempted to use parking meter revenue for general purposes, court action coufd be institut ed against such expenditure. over the expense of ft part of the police department, street improvements, etc., the money collected from meters can be used to offset traffic items in the budget and therefore take a part of the burden off taxpayers. The parking meter originated with the late Carl Mugrc, an Oklahoma editor, who concerned himself with traffic problems of his home town. Studying parking habits, he conceived the meter idea and the first machine were built by the engineering department of Oklahoma University. Numerous types of meters now arc available. Manufac turing and sales fompanies have developed a unique selling process which offers a "can't lose" proposition. The company pays the original cost of installation, furnish ing the meters without any obligation to the city and at a specified, standard price pri" meter. Duo to the great com letition among companies, there is no danger of exhorbit ,nt charco. The installing company receives 75 per cent of receipts lor the first six months, nnd after that time divides pro ceeds on a 50-50 basis with chase and installation costs the city takes full title and all And while the meters are pany at present gets the lion's share of receipts, the city i not losinii as much as might be expected. Non-fixnble traffic tickets have yielded $KK) per week in overtime park ing fines since Roseburg's meters were installed. The amount of fines probably will decrease as we become more accustom ed to the meters, but, at present, a double source of revenue is provided. the workers of (he nation, have resorted to the use of Injunction process and as a result have made an extremely bud situation much worse. Labor regards this step on the part of the government as a violation of ttw Norrls La (iuar riia act. It represents force, vio lenee and Ihe threat of punish ment on the part of the govern ment." Green's statement sai-klng the sovernment'a use ol the In junction followed by several hours a similar denunciation by the CIO convention at Atlantic City. The AFL leader added: "Neiiher troops with bayonets, nor court Injunctions, nor incar ceration Of miners or their repre sentatlves In tail, can serve to produce one slr.ple ton of coal. Only the skilled, trained. Cour fleoouA, free mine workers who are willing In risk their lives In the coal mines each day, can do this.''
