PAGE UOWABD 1IBLV1N BENJ. B. JOHN JON MELVIN JOHNSON. SATURDAY MORN ING, JULY 30,192 THE FORDNEY TARIFF BILL. George Bernard Shaw's rather crypti remark on the result, of the Dempsey Carpeniier fight, that it was a morn knockout for the victor, seems to appl very aptly to the passage last week the Fordney tar ill bill in the House the I'hiladel phia Record.

The Republicans, havin an enormous majority, put the- bi! through easily enough, but on the points in dispute the. Democrat! minority, aided by an element of th dominant party, carried off the honors By tbiscombination the proposed iniquit ous embargo on dyestuffc was thrown out; hides and oils were restored to th free list, and other more liberal provi sions were carried through. The boas ol Congressman Garrett, the minority leader, thai the Democrats were given "just five opportunties to win, and they won-all five," seems to be justified the facts. This victory over Fordneyisni make it altogether probable that after the Sen ate shall have disposed of the bill, which will probably not be for several months, its author will hardly recognize it. There is then likely lo be a prolonged wrangle between Senate and House over points in dispute, and the measure will finally be whipped into a shape quite differ, enl from its original form.

The inexcusable duty on lumber, which will adc so much to building coats, is still to be eliminated, and it is to be hoped that the outrageous "American valuation" plan of assessing duties, of which there has been so much criticism will be abandoned. The results accomplished so far show that the Demoratic minority in Congress is capable of rendering highly important services in the consumers' behalf. If this stand is consistently maintained the ultimate tariff bill promises to be much less at first seemed likely. THE REPUBLICAN FREE LIST. Representative Tillman gave this excellent humorous summary of the Fordney Tariff Free List: "The gentleman from Michigan (Mr.

many times a millionaire, we are told, chief godfather of this tariff baby, chief defender of the laboring man, champion in.chief of the farmer, friend, benefactor, and lord protector par excellence of the downtrodden, has a free list in this bill that I shall discuss briefly. By reason of his kindness, there is still something free for Americans besides salvation. Sandwiched and hedged in between de. vices and subterfuges and pitfalls and jokers and traps is now and then an article on the free list. Some chemicals, and here is one of them: Sulphide ol arsenic; also valerianic acid.

The con sumer is taxed for everything he wears, from the bat on bis head la the shoes on bis feet, but asafoetide, coculus indi- cus, annatto, cudbear, gambler, osmium, and kieserite can leap over the tariff wall, higher than the wall that grim old Romulus built around Rome, and kies. erite et al. do not have to pay for the privilege of the leap. The poor old American consumer must be taxed for bis collar and his coat, bis shirt and his socks, but there comes to him galloping through the wide breach Mr. Fordney made through his tariff wall such ne oessilies as civet, musk, arrowroot, bones (crude, steamed or ground.) Many a good woman will complain because of the duty on baby clothes and a shroud for her husband, but Mr.

Fordney provides that she shall have coir yarn, dividivi, and fish skins (both raw or salted) without any duty. Handkerchiefs are taxed, but lava is free. Neckties are on th'e dutiable list, but leaches crawl in un taxed. Boys, Mr. Fordney makes'you pay two prices for your suspenders, but puluis not taXed, and so on ad libitum ad nauseum." A Tribute to Ihe Scout.

To be sure, the home and the school for the most part are to be depended upon to train the young boys of the coun try into citizenship--citizenship which embraces in its practical creed the duty of consistent, -scrupulous lawfulness. There are some other organizations, how. ever, which supplement in a valuable way the efforts of the parents and teach- ars in inculcating the duty of respecting and obeying the laws of the city, Stale and nation. A few days ago a New York judge was aiked some questions about Boy Scouts. He said: "During my six years as a police judge I have never bad a Boy Scout come before me as a defendant." That, in itself, is a tribute to this splendid organization.

Bay Scouts do not get into court because they do not give in their behavior the occasion for officers to arrest them or people, to complain against them. The secret of it lies in the spirit of the Scout training; there is discipline; there is in. spiration to be manly and brave; there is loyalty taught, loyalty to law and order. The Boy Scout is so busy doing the ser. viceable, the helpful, the -orderly, the lawful thing that he doesn't have time to get into trouble by breaking the ordinances and the laws.

This of the boys in the big cities, and it is es. pecially true of our own boys here, who, it goes without saying, are worthy of tht tribute applied to their comrades. State Committee Meets. Prominent Democratic leaders from all sections of Maryland gathered at the Hotel Rennert, in Baltimore, on Thursday of last week, for the meeting of the Democratic' State Committee. Many well known women were in attendance and participated in the deliberations of the meeting.

Dr. J. Herbert Wade, State Chairman called the meeting to order, and explain ed that the main purpose of the meetinj was to arrange a conference with Gaten Tail, Republican Stale Chairman, for th purpose of agreeing on a date lor the coming primary election. Under th law, it would fall on September i unless otherwise specified by the tw chairmen, and as September 12th i De fenders' Day and a legal holiday, it wa thought advisable to arr.iiif;e a differen date. Chairman Wade was authorizei to confer with the Republican chairnui and to name a new which, iimle the law, must be between September Hi and Dr.

Wade was to select the date for the Democrat! State Convention, which will be held in Baltimore shortly after the piiiii.irie;. Resolutions were passed doubling the size of the Central Committees" am changing their membership from thre to six, in order that the women migli be given adequate representation on th county committees without making i necessary to reduce the mnle member ship. Governor Ritchie made a shor address in which he outlined a portion of his reorganization program, and cnjlec attention to certain features of the Fed eral Roads Dill, which are imcompatibl with Maryland's interest. Judge Gray on Wars. In the opinion of former Federal judge George Gray, who is one of the fou Americans invited by the League of Nn lions to propose four candidates fo judges of the international court of jus tice now in progress of organization by the league, this movement is a step in the right direction for the accomplish menl.of the world peace.

"The Judge Gray stated, "has turned from the theory of the survival of the fittest to ward a truer civilization in which the rights of nations, great or small, will be determined and upheld by judicial pro cess. The change is slow, but we are belter today than we were yesterday am tomorrow will be better than today. Ou progress is shown in the relations of thi: country with England, which for the las hundred years have been regulated by the processes ot arbitration and common sense and have resulted in harmony, Between this country and the dominion to the north there is a border three thou sand miles long unmarked by fort or arsenal. Each treaty, each reference a dispute to us onestep further towards diminishing the chances of armed conflict. It may be long time, but eventually we will arrive at or near the goal at which we aim." Farmers Will Be Asked to Help.

Farmers ol Maryland will have opportunity, from August 1 to August 15, lo give of their surplus corn and wheat, that orphans and starving in the Caucasus and the Levant may be fed. The appeal for the grain is from Maryland Headquarters of the Near East Relief. The need for urgent belp is shown in the following cablegran from Jaquith, a relief worker at Con. stantinople and surrounding area, who says: "What shall we cm? Shall we turn out children from orphanages, close bospitals or stop feeding recent refugees? Await orders." The farmers of Maryland can answer this appea with their 'surplus grain, says Harolt F. Pellegrin, Maryland State Director, Near Easf Relief.

Farmers will find at mills throughout the state, posters fron Near East Relief headquarters, asking Tor grain and stating that the farmers do nating it will be given an official receipt at the milts. The grain buyers going through the State also will give official re ceipts for grain contributed. Federalsburg. A lawn fete will be held on (he M. parsonage grounds at Reliance this even ing.

Apple Crop Shows Further Decrease Maryland's small apple crop, reduce to a minimum this year by several earl spring freezes nnd further damaged by local hail and windstorms in some coin munilies, shows signs of shrinking to yet smaller proportions, according to of ficial estimates just announced by S.

Shaw, secretary of the State Horticuliura Society and horticultural specialists fo the University of Maryland Extension Service. While indications last montl pointed to about 20 per cent, of a norma crop, the appearance of orchards am condition of fruit now point to recen losses which bring (he apples down to 17 per cent of a crop. The Maryland crop for this year, now estimated at 99,000 barrels, is a gloomy contrast to last sea- season's big crop of 511,000 barrels. There is consolation, however, it is said, for the consumer in the moderately large crops promised in other Stales. New York, for instance, which escaped mos ot the cold weather damage, has prospects of close to a 3.000.ooo-bnrrel crop and Washington's estimated production is 5,500,000 barrels.

B. C. A. Cuts Deficit. Operating results on the Baltimore Chesapeake Si Atlantic Railway Com pany for the five months ol the curren year, January I to May 31, showed an improvement over the corresponding period of last year.

The company no only reported a slight gain in gross bus! ness, but by reducing operating expenses succeeded in rutting down (he net deficit. Total gross earnings for the five months were $562,323, which compare with $504,897 for 1920. Operating ex penses were 8648,973, and after taking into account taxes and rent for the period the company showed a net deficit $110,286. For the same period las year the deficit was 166,408. Traffic expenses showed a very decided reduc tion as contrasted with last year, bu transportation expenses were heavier, due (o wage adjustments, as were expenditures on maintenance of way ant equipment.

Total expenses were 775 less than for the corrrspondiujj five months of the preceding fiscal year. Fertilizer Prices Are Falling. Announcements were made b'y several local fertilizer dealers this week that ibe price for fertilizer this fall would be considerably reduced. This will be veiy gratifying news to the two thousand far iners in Caroline county and will be oue of the first real reductions made in the commodities needed by the farmer. Sixteen per cent phosphate, which sold ast year from $28 to $33, has been reduced in the fir si instance to 16 and tor some brands the prfce is even lower.

The reduction in some instances is said to be nearly 50 per cent. For Sheriff. To the Voters of Caroline County: 1 hereby announce my candidacy for Sheriff, subject to the Democratic primaries.
