'When .We entered the I war there was an even greater demand for ships in which to I transport our troops, and there were no adequate shipping facil i ities under the American flag " ' ' " j ; And in other respects we learned the vital importance of I protection i and of an " exaggerated nationalism,' in our de ' pendence upon German manufacturers for dyestuffs and many ( chemicals, and upon other countries for very, many articles : .which we should have been raising or manufacturing. I ' Had we followed- the policy desired by the importing. junta, and had bought our woolen and other goods in Enrppe -we I would have found ourselves unable to clothe, and equip our armies for spinning and "weaving machinery. and all th other machinery and appliances, and the distributing organizations ! and other essentials, could not have been secured over night ; or ; in a year. : .;. ,. . -..a--.; - ' , - i ;t, - Or dozen ;years. : - r. ; i T:'i'-.--: .. The principle kol protection Is fundamental and is not de signed merely to meet an emergency j , .

To be dependent upon Europe or any other nation for ariy-of the essentials of life, or eyen of orderly , and well balanced prosperity, means that we mustl.pay tribute to their capital and their labor for the supplies which we must have or which wfr need. . r If thk is "exaggerated natronalism then exaggerated nationalism, is what the American people need above all else jj Nor does this in the least dim or interfere with the regard of the American people, for the welfare of other peoples any W here under the shining sun, as has been repeatedly shown-by the enormous contributions of our nation and our people .as in dividuals Jto help the starving and suffering and needy of all lands and shades of color or religion or political belief or vagary Nor with our world leadership in things of high import.

The crop here Is largj er in the first place., which giTes mbre bushels to sell and the pric es better which give more money to ! the atre. For another thing last week", 215,000 bushels of wheat were exported from Port land. This in. itself relieves the ntajrket considerably, and that is but a small part of bar crop. ' Another thing that argues wvell foe the west Is a statement com ing from San Francisco that the Federal Resenre bank there had $297,000,000 on October 17th and thlt rediscounts In the previous months were down 22 per - cent. Txis means a considerably easier . market - which, must be reflected oa other Industries of the coast.

I , v ' ) "l 1 THE STAYTOX; GUAXGK The ' Oregon Statesman ' this morning publishes a series of res olutions from the Stayton Grange which is sounding a key note for the next .campaign. We would advise republicans (to hunt up these ideas and : read them be cause they can get a, lot of in for ma tron as to - the jdirectlpu that politics are taking.: " The people are Indeed earnest for " the economies In government and are going to' dmand the abo lition of a lot of offices and a lot of employees will be sent home. There will be ' no more raises in salary and if a' man is not satis fied with what he" is getting let him hunt another job. - , ' The Stayton Grange has struck the key note in Oregon politics. TWO KINDS 5 There are two kinds of children in -this country Ihafneed atten tion always, f Oneis3he under privileged and the other is the over-developed. It Is Just as es sential- to . hold one ba.ckas it Is to shove the other on. For .some years we have given-up1 the effort to force them to .work together. They do not belong together. The hardest lesson for us to learn is that an under-pjrUefMjry-liL.?3 not a dunce and actually had just 0 as much chance in. the race of life is any other child. f Ky.- :H':;.' Another hard lesson to learn is the precocious child must be held back and j made to balance before he could become effective in life. One has tp be pulled up, the other has to be pulled down, and it is the part of education to do the pulling in either direction.- A BUDGET ; There lis just one way to get economy in state government and that is to put out a budget. A budget would be worth a half mil lion dollars a year to Oregon. Our present ''catch as catch can" and "you tickle me and I'll tickle you" is a Bplendld game for the official family but it means an organized raid of the tate , treasury every two years. In addition i to the budget the governor to be effect ive must be able to veto single items in every bill that is sent to him for his signature. FOR PROTECTION 1 Premier Baldwin has pronounc ed in favor of protection for Eng land. He has raised a storm be cause of the free trade traditions of the British Empire. However the conditions growing out of the war have made it necessary for England j to protect their workmen. From one to three millions are out of work jail or half time, and there must be drastic protection in order to keep the laborers at work. I-.:-,-'." : r ";": ? . , ENFORCING THE LAW The people talk about enforcing the law. We understand them al ways to mean the prohibitory law. So be it. But every day law must be enforced and it can be done only, by cooperation .between the state and nation. This law has been made' too much a football and the disposi tion to pass the buck has been too general. The state and nation should work in harmony in en forcing: a good law the same as it does in enforcing any other law. ' Bonar Law who has just died was not a great man. he was very substantial, however, very sol emn and very conservative. - De scribed without ambition he occu pied a large space in British poli tics. For "more than a year his health; has been , failing and his death has been feared at time. ; V - -:' t any MY IMAflHI ABE PROBLEMS Adcle Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Copyright 1921,v by Newspaper Feature Service, Inc. 1 , THp PLAN DICKY MADE TO 7 ENTERTAIN . BESS DEAN Within 24 hours of the arrival Bess Dean had fitted herself deft ly, smoothly. Into the scheme of our mountain family life, and had gained apparent- cordiality , and liking' from each member. t The jovial giant, "Pa" Cosgrove -as I had learned he is called by half the Valley was frankly de lighted with her good nature, her buoyant, spirits, her raillery -and her enthusiasm, apparently gen uine, over his beloved mountains! The twins, Ned and Fred now grown to stalwart youngmanhood', with the inches, though not the girth, of their father -shared his admiration of : the girl, who; though she must have taught their contemporaries in age but a few years ago, treated them with ex actly the same half-fun-making, half-deferential air she did the elder Cosgrove. Playing a Game? Marion. In the throes of a little girl's uncomfortable idolizing of a big, one, followed Bess Dean around like an adoring shadow, with Junior always tagging at her heels, and neither; Lillian nor I, smiling to ourselves at the bore dom Miss Dean must be suffering, could K detect ''any sign of annoy ance on her part. I saw even the grave face of ? Robert ; Savarln light up in amusement at some of the girl's sallies, while Dicky though making a virtue of provid ing entertainment for my friend so far as I could observe, did not appear to be' especially bored by his efforts. -. "-.'rri f Contrary to her usual custom i when men are on her social h ori son, Bess. Dean took-: particular pains to be cordial and attentive to the .-women of our family. Mrs. Cosgrove, Lillian and I she ' was careful-to neglect none of us, but I think that with the . clarity of feminine - vision toward . members of our; own sex, not one of us failed to understand her and her real feeling of annoyed boredom at having to waste her time upon US. . ! . Like most strangers to moun tain life, Bess Dean was anxious to do everything she had read about people doing when they so journed 1 among the eternal? hills. And , after the first five tdays. Dicky, I' fancy, found . himself at his wits' end to provide jsome thlng novel for her approval. WWelL . what's the program to day, people?" , This was her in variable greeting at the break fast table. ; A Deliberate Hint. I When she uttered It upon the sixth day following her arrival, I saw Dicky's eyebrows knit invol untarily, and, with secret amuse ment, I realized that he was be ginning to be . ennui-ridden. But his manner .when he answered contained no hint of his real feel ing. Instead, it was filled ap parently only with . an enthusias tic desire to serve her. "How would tyou like to climb down Rip Van Winkle's Hill, see the very stone upon which he slept and all that sort of thong?" he asked. , t "I'm afraid that would I be -' "Pa" Cosgrove began, but a glance from his wife's eyes stopped him, and he did not finish his sentence,: which I knew contained a thought ful warning against the difficulty of th trip. And on the other faces I saw only tiny, . illy-suppressed smiles. Most of us had been i through the experience of descending the noted hill and were perfectly willing to pass on the pleasure to some other eager no vice, k; : :,: j -; K I ! "I'd love It!" Bess Deans eyes were shining. "How -many will go?" ; . - . : , .,. j -,, "You, Madge and I, and; either Ted or Fred, will do It ok foot, Dicky answered. "The other twia can drive us to the summit in Madge's car, leave us there and bring It back here again.. And LII, if you feel' equal to it, Rob ert could take my car, drive you around through WToodstock jj to Palenville and the foot' of 1 the mountain, and then back! home. Unless j you'd -rather reverse the order and you drive up?"; .':-" 1 f "I think I'd rather prefer 'the first route 'you outlined," Lillian said quietly, and Bess Dean, with eyes very wide and excited broke in:- f . ;.:):,.:. ,". t 4" i "This sounds tremendously- ex citing! Autos leaving us on the brink, and picking us up ; at the bottom. Why can's they go dowp the road?" , : "They can, but it takes about six months out of a car.V - Dicky said.-: "It's a good-enough foot road, but a bad performer for motor. And besides, it's not con sidered sporting In our real moun tain circles to ride down that mountain., Old Rip didn't have a car handy, you know, : when he woke up. He had to depend upon his tattered shoes. Now remem ber -no high heels ths moiing. Sneakers are . the order- of the day." y. - K. I' "Oh, dear, there's a hole in the sole of mine. : I've been' doing some strenuous walking on these stony paths, you know. If J could borrow a pair tout you say you're going down the mountain too, Madge?" - : It was as deliberate a hint for me. not to go on the expedition as a woman could give. I was afraid Dicky would be - furious, but It was a hint no proud woman could ignore and my- reply was prompt. 1 J j: "I didn't say I was going down." I carefully stressed the pronoun. "My husband appears to have that impression, bat he's mistaken. I strained my ankle ever so slightly yesterday. It will be all right If I'm careful, but I wouldn't, dare undertake a trip like that today. And you're wel come to the sneakers, if you can "wear them. , j- ' I (To be continued)!
