AMVM0R6 " . ; U COST TRADE EXPANSION COLUMBUS, O., Sept. 13. Estab lishment of cost systems by manufac turers was regarded as one of the most important means of strengthen ing American industry to meet Euro pean competition after the war by Ed ward N. Hurley, chairman of the fed eral trade commission, in an address before the Ohio Bankers' association here today. ' "The man who does not know his true costs Is the man who prices ills goods foolishly and thereby impairs the business of his sound competitors at the same time that he ruins his own," said Mr. Hurley. He also urg ed that strenuous efforts to increase American foreign traclo, particularly by establishment of branches of Amer-. lean banks abroad, be made to meet the most efficient and larger scale production of European countries when peace comes.. Nine tenths of the concerns report ing to the federal trade commission bo not keep adequato cost systems, Mr. Hurley declared. "Since they cannot tell where they are making money and where they are losing it, they cannot tell; whore to Introduce economies," he added. ' "Out of the 60,000 corporations that report an annual income of $50,000 or over, half do not charge off a single penny for depreciation. They even go on paying taxes to the government on inflated- values and Inflated earn ings." The trade commission has prepared pamphlets decriblng fundamentals of cost accounting and is prepared to send experts to assist trade associa tions in adopting sound systems, Mr. Hurley explained. Comparing British and American banking systems, Mr. Hurley said: "The total capital and reserves of the 57 British overseas banks exceed $500,000,000. Although our domestic banks, loan and trust companies have a capital and surplus of $3,400,000, ' 000 which equals that of all the do mestic banks of nil the rest of the world combined, the capita! and sur plus represented by our overseas banking is less than $7,000,000. We lire permitting our commercial ri vals to do our foreign banking for us and they obtain the profits and com mercial advantages that naturally re sult." SAYS BENSON NOT nTrnnniTnrfciomr r PORTLAND, Or., Sept. 13 Charg ing that S. Benson Is' not a fit person to become a citizen of the United States, President Eugeno T. Smith of the central labor council filed a pro test with the county clerk here today against the admission of the million aire lumberman to citizenship. Benson was born In Norway and came to this country In 1868. He ap plied lor his first papers in 1S94. Final healing will he held in the state circuit court tomorrow. Smith alleges that Benson Is a "Meddler and dangerous busybody" In IocrI government affairs and spe cifically charges that he sought to Influence the awarding of a paving contract for the Columbia river high way. Heuson, who is widely known for his public gifts, was nnnied as Or egon's first citizen during the Pan ama-Pacific exposition nt San Frun cisco, where he was dulv honored. But his opponent (mint out that he was not at that time n citizen at all. Jiis first love and his first shave are two episodes In every young man's career that he never forgets. With Medtord trade te Medford made FIRES DARKEN SKY AT SAX FRAXCISCO, Sept. .!. A yellow haze that today half obscures the .sky above San Francisco, and in creased humidity nnd mounting tem perature are ascribed by Weather Forci-iister (1, II. Willson to the for est, brush and grass fires that are btiininr in many places in the I'umi ties surrounding or near San Fran cisco bay. Tile most dangerous of the fires, that on the eastern slope of the Santa l'i:u. mountains above Los (Into,, is, it w hoped, partly under control, thouph several fine summer homes are stiil threatened, and fears are expressed that the flames may force their' way over Alpine ridjje uud enter the bi;; timber that leads to the hip basin. In the northern part of Sonoma county several fires are lmrnin!; nnd large areas of timber and brush have been swept over by the flames. A report from Grass Valley says a forest fire in Nevada county has burned over 3000 acres of brush and timber land, destroyed hundreds of cords of stacked cordwood and still unchecked. ' The fire Hint for several days lias been burning; in the Orovillu district continues to be a menace, the situa tion being reported as unchanged I nun yesterdav. Thousands of volunteer fire fight- ers have been on the buttle line two and tlireo davs and are almost ex hausted, hut dare not relax their ef forts lest the flames spring into re newed life and undo all their work. Some residents of the Santa Cruz mountain fire zone, fearing that their homes would fall prey to ihe flames, have removed their furniture nnd other household goods and their live- lock. Millionaires, bankers and mer chants have for nearly three davs been fighting side by side witli their rural employes and are etpinllv red eyeil, weary and smoke-begrimed. 1 lie country is particularly dry this time of year. The fires arc largely ascribed to the carelessness of hunt ers and campers. EASTERN APPLES WASHINGTON, Sept. In spite of rains in many sections flurinj; the jtnst week, the weather bureau's erop bulletin issued todav says harvesting and threshing of tfrain progressed rapidly and plowing for fall sowing is heinnin in the plains states and eastward. Weather during the week was fu vorahle for ripening corn in the cen tral and northwestern slates and the ernp is maturing rapidly. Condi tions were generally favorable for eotton; late potatoes benefitted by showers in northern seetions, al though the bad effects of unfavor able summer temperatures are show iny in the harvesting; good progress wan made in haying over most of the eituntry and forago crops are gener ally improving. Peaches and apples, the bulletin says, are showing the effei'ts of lack of rain in many of the central states. DUTCH STEAMER ANTWERPIN SUNK BY SUBMARINE LONDON, Sept. 1X Lloyds Ship ping agency announceH that the jDnteh steamer Autwi-rpin has been .link. No Dutch steamer Antwerpin is liMcd in available records. A Beljr ian steamer of I hat mime of 1107 tons xross is on ihe records, as well as n Diini.-h vessel of the same naiue of 1037 tons gross.. L E SHANGHAI, China, Aug. 31 (cor respondence of the Associated Press.) Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the most radical f all the Chinese republicans, has re turned to Shanghai from Japuu and is strain sitting in the high council of the more extreme Chinese reform ers. I'ntil the death of Yiiun Slii-kai, Dr. Sun Yat-sen remained in Tokio as the head of the young China move ment which was directed from that city. Apparently he did not regard it n safe to live in Kliangliai, al thou'h it is under foreign Mi'nteetion, while his old enemy, Yuan Slii-kai, was in power. Dr. Sun's part in the abortive rev olution of llllll won him little favor in China. Chinese of practically all classes were unwilling: to countenance another revolution until Yuan Slii kai had been given u longer oppor tunity to demonstrate his efficiency. His home in Shanghai is a modest house on lfoiitu Villon, in the French concession. It stands at the end of a long row of connected houses, lie greeted the Associated Press corre spondent in a sunny library at the back of the house overlooking u small walled garden. . Although he is 49 yenrs old, Dr. Sun hus the appearance of being very much younger. The only truce which jliis long strenuous years of noliticul agitation in China have left on him is gray hair. His moustache is also lightly gray. Hut his round, smiling face is without a wrinkle or line. Ilis eyes are bright and youthful, ami he speaks with a mildness und nlaeid ness which gives no suggestion of his turbulent career. Yes, I am for compromise. I want to see the north nnd soulh gc; together and make peace. Both sides' liould yield and get on commou ground. I also want to see China get on thoroughly friendly relations with all her neighbors. I am unnualificillv lor national and inti'inational com promise at this time. "I want, to sec China get into such u slaDle condition that investors will be willing lo assist her in developing her great resources. We want fac tories and all sorts of industries. We want workmen to replace the sol diers." BUSH POLICE RAID RACE FOR SHIRKERS LONDON", Sept. 13. Military po lice carried out an extensive raid for shirkers from military service today, at the Newmarket race course, Just before the race for the classic St. Leger was. started.
