REPUBLICANS TAKE RAP
AT TYNG TRADE THEORY
( WASHINGTON, Nov. 4. "Criticiz
I ing the Tyng trade theory, the Re-
I publican Publicity Association,
through it8 President, Hon. Jonathan
Bourne, Jr., says:
"An absolutely new theory of eco
nomics has been advanced in the
United States the author being F.
Edmonds Tyng, Jr., who sets forth his
ideas in an article in a recent number
of the 'Annalist.' The essence of his
idea is contained in this paragraph:
" 'There is a sound basis to the
assumption that if we pay more at
tention to our import, trade our
export trade will not only take
care of itself, but will not need
nursing and cuddling to enable it
to do so.'
"Imports are what a nation buys
from others; exports what a nation
sells. Applying Mr. Tyng's theory to a
man's private affairs, the rule would
be, 'buy more, and your selling will
take care of itself.' It is an entirely
new philosophy of trade, and we can
well commend it to our neighbors,
postponing for the present our own
adoption of such an innovation.
"Mr. Tyng deprecates the popular
idea that a favorable balance of trade
is something greatly to be desired. We
naturally wonder whether that is the
theory on which he runs his own pri
vate business whether he likes to
have a red ink balance instead of a
credit balance on his own books and at
his bank. We have seen some people
who conducted their business that
way, but they usually wound up in
bankruptcy -courts and left their wi
dows and children with nothing but
unpleasant reflections when they pass
ed to the great beyond.
"One more new idea in national
economics is set forth in Mr- Tyng's
assertion that 'goods sold abroad by a
nation may be paid for only by goods
bought in return.' We had always
thought, and the records support the
belief, that goods may be paid for in
services in ocean transportation, in
terest on capital, service for tourists,
insurance premiums, etc. Through
out most of its history the United
States has been a creditor .nation '"n
handling merchandise but a debtor
nation in services, with the result that
we were a net debtor up to the out
break of the European war. During a
few months in 1914, under the Demo
cratic tariff law, we were a debtor na
tion in merchandise also, and Ameri
can mils were closed in order that we
might pay the attention to imports
which Mr. Tyng considers so import
ant. In view of our experience in thtit
year, there is no likelihood whatever
of our going back to a policy that
leaves us an adverse balance of mer
chandise trade.

Living Conditions
In Germanv Hard
SANDY, Dec. 19. Mrs. Carl Wend
land of Sandy received a few pieces
of chocolate colored porcelain money
last week from Dresden, Germany.
This money is used by the people for
their own exchange, as the gold and
silver is applied on the war debts to
France and England. An American
dollar is almost a "fortune" in that
country, and many Americans are
flocking there to "live high," as the
same expenditure here would not be a
half living with American prices.
Mrs. Wendland's sister writes that
'conditions are worse than during the
war because of small crops and the
war tax. The poor people are living
mostly on potatoes. There is eiough
of other foods, but the prices are so
high they cannot buy. The Ebert
regime is not popular except with the
official and moneyed classes. The of
ficials fill their own pocbets, caring
little for the needs of the people.
ofmaldsisAoaccmUither ssrkslRy mbf
"Bolshevism is getting hold, and it
seems impossible that such conditions
could exist .especially when. Germany
was not invaded."
Conditions In the farming sections
are fairly good, but the farmers hold
the prices up, as was shown by Mrs.
"Wendland's sister who went out In
the country to buy potatoes and the
farmer laughed In her face because
she could not pay the - exhorbitant
price, and went home in tears the day
she mailed her letter.
A nephew of John Buccohltz who
arrived at Brightwood recently from
Germany tells the same story of suf
fering. He said this situatiotn is so
desperate that starving people would
sometimes stop women on the street
and strip off their clothing and of they
resisted they were shot. The con
dition is growing worst all the time
is the report.
Ladies Aid Gives
Supper and Bazaar
SANDY, Dec. 18. There was a big
time at the Pleasant Home Methodist

Sandy Country Is
Hit by Blizzard
SANDY, Dec 20. A young blizzard
has been raging here the past three
days. Sunday morning dawned with
about five inches of snow covering this
section of the country, and the East
wind then picked up it's ears and be
gan to blow.
From Government Camp to Gresham
it has not ceased for a moment, in fact
blew harder last night than before,
and at noon today there is no modera
tion in velocity or temperature. -At
Government Camp yesterday it was 12
degrees above zero, 16 below freezing at
Zig Zag and 12 below freezing at San
dy, and the thermometer here has var
ied little in the past twenty-four hours.
The flying snow fills the air and the
wind sweeps it away. The question
was asked Cottrell this morning where
is the snow all going, and the reply
was "to Troutdale." Two years tigo at
this time there was more snow and the
temperature as low, but there was no
wind. The continued blizzard makes
it difficult to keep the homes warm,
and is very nucomfortable for those
who have to be out.
