Eric Johnston, president o f the United States
chamber of commerce has returned from a for
eign tour with the report that Russia will be
badly in need of American manufactured goods
after the war.
The present administration has developed
Russia into a good customer (now it is probably
mostly lend-lease) with prospects that sales to
that country will greatly increase, but if wfe are
going to sell to Russia, we must use some o f her
goods. That applies also to other countries
The richest country in the world can’t expcet
to sell to poorer countries, if she does not buy.
When we enter the international picture on that
basis, someone is going to get hull, because
imports affect the home market. Nevertheless
we want a high standard o f living for ourselves
and our children and we want peace. To have
both, we must compromise.
World peace is immutably bound to inter
national economic conditions, because wars are
fought mostly over trade.
Russia will emerge from the war as the dom
inant power in Europe and the United States
will continue to be the strongest nation this side
of the Atlantic. The British will probably con
tinue to control the greatest world-wide empire.
If these three can cooperate in an economic way
with themselves and with other nations they
will wield a great influence in maintaining pe
ace in the world. Talking about peace without
granting a chance for existence is merely wast
ing time and effort.
About 1 Vi* per cent of the meat supply of the
United States comes from wild game and birds.
We have wondered why us Malheur county

ortations of flaxseed and other feed
grains were not increased nor were
prices reduced by suspension of the
tariff rates on these products, acc
ording to war food administration.
The experiment was first tried last
December, when there was an acute
shortage of feed for livestock, by
passage of an act suspending the
tariff for 90 days. It was thought
supplies could be brought in from
Canada and Mexico toy commodity
credit corporation at a lower price
because of removal of the duty. But
Canadian and Mexican growers had
a different idea. While the two gov
ernments are cooperating with the
United States in the war effort, the
producers of those countries adop
ted a policy of "business as usual"
and immediately booted the price in
exact amount of the tariff rate.
Later, to further test the experi
ment, congress extended the duty
free period for another 90 days, but
the results were no more satisfact
ory and when, in the final days be
fore the summer recess, it was pro
posed to grant another extension,
this time for 180 days, there was st
rong opposition on the floor of the
house. War Food Administrator M a
rvin Jones stated that the demand
for flaxseed was such that, with or
without the duty, “ every available
bushel was being imported for wh
ich shipping space could be found,"
and that the net result of the can
celation of duty was to increase the
selling price asked by foreign pro
ducers.
This profiteering attitude on the
part of Canadian and Mexican pro
ducers angered members of congress
and if their resentment continues
it is quite likely to influence future
congressional action on tariff re
visions which have been proposed as
an incentive to trade expansion in
peacetime The situation is of imm
ediate interest to residents of the
Pacific northwest because of the
shortage of stock feed resulting fr
om lend-lease operations and ab
normal use of grains in the pro
duction of war materials. It was
stated that the condition would ch
ange with cessation of hostilities,
when American production will ag
ain become available for domestic
use. but for the present it is a sou
rce of irritation and involves an
added expense which must be re
