Di Julius KIt'iu, chief iT tho tmreiiu nf foreign aiul (IrmcsLic commoree nf tho IVdoial department nf commerce, Iijis essayed to answer a quest inn which has lontf trouhled the minds nf many Americans. That question is, how Amei iean poods, manufactured hy expensive labor and shipped lonw distances by rail and boat, can compete in foreign maihets with foreign goods manufactured by cheap labor and transported only short distances at low rates? The secret, according to Dr. Klein, lies in American brains, American machine production and the study Ameri cana have made of foreign markets.

I The jMemoiial Pay privilege of p-iying tiilinle to lli nation's heioic dead has been tiansferied hugely fl'uin tit I'ged veterans of the Civil war lo the more youthful par ticipants in the World war. And it seems proper that th:; sacred privilege and duly should devolve upon this youth ef the land rather than Ihe older people, for it was the valiant young men (if the countiy who made the nation possible, who saved the tnicm, mid who desl roved Ilk tliieat of Piussian despotism, even though it was the youth 0!' succeeding geaei at ions. The tribute we pay today to the roldier dead of 'ill wars can be mme leverent and more sacred because we can l-L'tler visualize in the young men of the World war the saciifices the youth of T.l and '".is offered for love of flag anil coiiuliy. as did those who wore the olive drab in '17 and 'IS. Ily being thus reminded of their youtli i nd si length and manhood we can belter appieeiale the r.ifl to us and In posteiity of tho.e who lie in soldiers' graves. The aimies of which they weie a part, no matter hat the cause or when or where the conflict, were com posed Vf the flower of the n ".lion's youth. So it is honor to valor and saciifices of youth that we pay today and i'. Is filling that men and women of like ages in all the yean to come shall carry on the beau, i fill custom oiiginated by tht survivors of the Civil war a custom (hat both honoi i the memory of thoae who served and at the same time nays ti Unite to the youth of the present and the future 'hat is the nation's icliance, in war or in peace, for piog r'.sK and accomplishment. One of our duties on this day, therefore, should be In lil'ilje ouiselves to inculcate in the minds of future youlh Hie spiiit of gratitude and loyalty that shall insure th' durability of tho ideals for which our soldier dead strived' not in vain. If we fail in this, we dishonor ourselves au break faith with them. JI-:ltl'SAI.K.M AI'). Slips arc lii'InK tiilu'n ly Sir Hunalil HIoith.
