An executive of a large rubber company estimates that about 40,000,000 tireH will be needed in VJ23 to keep America's fleet of motor cars properly "shod," according to the Com mercial and Financial World.

Roundabout as this method may seem, estimates imide in this way in tho past have tallied very accurately with actual consumption figures as found by the' Rubber Association. Accordingly, the estimate of 42,000,000 tires to -bo consumed in 1923 is regarded by a practical tire man as an outside figure. I CONCERNING FOREIGN POLICIES first years, when their joy bad beeli frenh. they seemed able to sense each other s feeliuxs with a keen delicacy. That that first new exquisite joy must eventually wear off and be replaced by nympathy and effort, neither John or his wife wished to believe. They were only conscious, both of them, that . some thing had been lost and they preferred to blame each other Each of them know ing that they themselves wanted to he huppy and have thinKs as they used to be, believed, of courne, the fault could not tie their own. - "Well, if if you don't consider them oomnanv. then that's all the worse."

I t T FORGOTTEN PROMISES I Tiu-all how I departed from uiy home, long years ago, bow my aunt was broken hearted, and I saw her aad tears flow.

"'You can bank on tlint," I told her, "do not fret your heart. I beg; 1 will write or sprain shoulder, 1 will write or lose a l g." And 1 surely meant to semi her an epistle every week. 4ut the city's glare and splendor made good resolutions , leak. Now and then 1 thought of Auntie, in that villsge by the sea. waiting, waiting ill hr shanty, watching for a line from me. "Oh. tomorrow 1 will write her." I would often lightly say: and her hair grew white and whiter, and her pep had ooaed away. Hwiitlv the grim destroyer took my Auntie to her home; "She has left you," writes ber lnywer, "nothing but ber fine-tooth comb. She haa left all kinds of money to the Home for Mal tose Cats, aud the way you've acted, sonny, showa your head is full of bats." My Temorse is never ending, 1 have taken in my aigu, and the Maltese cats are speuding rubles that are rightly mine. Politically and economically the United States is in a very delicate position.

The other element would, even at considerable cost, help tho rest of the world help itself. The one would try to salvage from the ruins of civilization enough to compensate inactivity toward preventing distraction, indeed, would re construct, believing that to all concerned there would therein bo tho greatest advantage. One-policy, or' the other must obtain for there is 'hardly a compromise" between them that would be satisfactory to anyone. -Whether-the policy be selfishness or generosity must be decided at Washington.

On his recommenda tion practically on his demand under threat of veto the flexible tariff sections were included in the Ford-ney-McCumber law. "Flexible" is a new name for a "scientific" tariff, tho first provisions for which wero inserted in the Payne-Aldrich law at the instance of President Taft in 1909. The basis for both is the same the difference in cost of production between the United States and the principal competing country.
