MEETING THE h'OHEUi \ l\ELl EXC'ES
Since about the year 1S30 we have admitted to this country from thirty
to thirty-live million foreigners. No one with a sane mind would (or a mo
ment think of denying the great and invaluable contribution that these for
eign-born citizens made to the progress aud prosperity of the United States.
»ud our people have not always been careful to see that they were given the
proper opportunity to come into direct touch with American life. But that
is another matter. Vn outstanding fact is this, that of these millions of im
migrants perhaps ninety-five per cent, came from countries in which first
class favoritism existed, and exists today in many cases, and not only was
looked upou as normal but proper. Hence these immigrants came to Amer
ica with the idea of bettering their condition, and if possible, becoming a
favored class in the new world. Unfortunately they were not all to be
come real Americaus in every sense of the word, like Carl Schurz, Hans
Kudlicb, James \\ ilsou and Franklin K. Lane, but brought their old-world
prejudices aud ideas with them.
As a result, '.his new element has gradually permeated our national life
with class ideas, class selfishness, and class assertiveness. The radical and
nocialistu torces of this country are mainly recruited from the foreigners.
&s the names prominent in their organizations show, and thev continually
prate about "class struggle" and other un-Aniencan objectives. Of course
tne selfish people who exist here as everywhere, were quick to take advan
tage. This is one of the rasoiis why the labor uuious have been founded
ard have prospered, for the laborers must act in soir-dofense. But it Is signi
hca.it how many of the present dominant uuiou officials and leaders are of
i i> gn birta. They have broLi .t l.ii-.i eati ideas of cii s it:.ggle with
them, and this is the curse of the relations : "'tween capita and labor <n this
country today. The difficulty is here, and must be met !n some way if this
nation is to continue on the lines that made it great, and set it in the fore
front of real progress toward the highest ideals of civilization and human
ity. How can it be met? Here lies the problem for our most construc
tive and patriotic thiukers. both men and women.—Cordova Times.
Sound Economics Demand Thr.t Vvre Loan to
Europe on Gilt-Edged Security
Bv PROF. IRVING FISHER. Yale University.
Sound economics demand ti at America should
make further loans to Euro; e in.-tead of haggling
over war debts. Moult, not alma, is needed—monej
loaned on gilt-edged security. The world's ecu
nomic illness can be cured in no other way. One of
the biggest services banker- and capitalists of Americ;
could do is to dew»e some method by which Americai
nvestors could invest in European securities, gilt
edged securities paying 7 or 8 per cent
This sort of lending—investment by America ii
Europe's peace-time trade and commerce and indu.
ii /yz25B55
try—dnfers vastly from the 5ll,W0,UUU.UUU we lent r.urope uurmj iu<
»ar. War debts are on a separate ba.-is from commercial debts; the}
nere made not as investments but to save our ?kms. War debts are prac
tice.i_v hopeless anyway, or at least their collection is certain of postpone
nifnt for 'en to twenty years. No reasonable man in Europe expects any
of the international war debts to be paid, excepting perhaps Great Brit
ain's debt to America and part of the German repHrations.
Currency instability is the fundamental economic evil. It cannot
be -»parated from the political diseases of the world. Germany, Poland
and Austria have inflated currency because they cannot balance their
budgets politically. Their governments are too weak to impose taxes;
their expenses are so terrific and they are so poor.
Germany's reparation problem is the key to the world situation. T
am satisfied that for the next few years it will be impossible for Germany
to pay much on the reparations. And it would be the height of folly
from an e-"onomic point of view to compel her to pay. If the object is to
hold her down, that can be done. But such a policy holds disaster, engeu
doing hates and possibly involving the world in another war. It would
cr- ite a situation in which any little international "incident" might be
like a match dropped in a mow of hay.
We can help Europe and automatically help ourselves if we lend now
for reconstruction. We ought to lend only on guarantee. I do not pro
per* ptt®. i»r do I propose creating bad debts.

WASHINGTON SENDS
I'AHT KKl'lT CHOI'S X
TO FOREIGN LANDS
Seattle, Aug. 17.—Agreements
huve been made between the apple
growers and the port of Seattle
whereby one million boxes of this |
year's apple crop will move to'
American and foroign markets by J
steamers. Of the 1921 crop 375,000'
boxes were shipped by boat and In I
1919 only 2,000 boxes were handled,
over Seattle docks. The Washing
ton state production of apples this
year will be only a little less than
last year when approximately i third
of the commercial apples of the
I'tilted Slates were grown in this]
state.
A surprising development In ihe
apple industry is the rapid increase
in the movement of this fruit on le
frigera'ed boats. Until the last few
years all the apples, peaches, straw
berries and other fruits sent to out
side markets moved on trains.
In If 20 experimental shipments to
Atlantic and Kuropean ports showed
feasibility and economies of ship
i ping fruit by rail to Seattle and thou
I by intereoastal and trans-Allantic
boats ii> (he great consuming centers
of tiie Atla.itic seaboard and Europe.
Shipments arrived in the United
Kingdom purchased a million and a
half barrels of American ipples In
1921 in such excellent shape that the
hulk of the fruit moving from the
Pacific Northwest to conteneutal Eu
rope will go by boats from North
Pacific ports. This year the apple
• crop in Europe will be short, and
(Washington growers expect to ship
| .100.000 boxes from this port to Eng
i land.
Last year when ine raurouas were
hard pressed lo furnish refrigerated
space for the movement of 32.541
carloads of Washington apples, the
growers took advantage of the public
cold storage space, enough for 20.
000 tons here, and this year have
contracted to ship at least three
.times as much through the local
' public terminals. Recently an inter
coastal steamship with refrigeration
left for the Atlantic seaboard with
apples, pears, and peaches, loganber
ries. strawberries packed in sugar,
reindeer meat from Alaska, frozen
fish, eggs and poultry. En route
soulh the vessel picked up Califor
| nia citrus fruits and other perish
lable products from the Golden state.
1 Formerly all this tonnage moved to
New York. Boston. Philadelphia and
other centers by train.
Chinese are gradually learning to
eat American apples and last year
! imported 4.500 barrels, while the
| Philippines took 11.026 barrels. The
I government's fast express service in
(the Far East has resulted In several
I tons of lettuce, celery and vegetables
going forward on every boat and the

OFFICIALS ARE IMPRESSED
WITH HYDER OUTLOOK
All members of the official par'j
that returned yesterday on the Un
alga from Hyder were very greatly
Impressed with the great possibili
ties of milling development at that
camp and, as Governor §one ex
pressed it this morning, the chances
for becoming one of the great min
ing camps 01 the country. Those
making the trip were Governor
lione, Judge T. M. Reed and U. S.
Attorney A. G. Shoup.
In speaking of the trip today.
Governor Bone said that it had been
a very pleasant and profitable one.
It was his first visit there and, while
it was not as long as had been hoped
for, a good idea of the community
and its possibilities were obtained.
Tho Unalga loft here early Thursday
morning and arrived at Hyder at 2
p. m. Saturday. Saturday evening
the officials met the residents at a
public reception presided over by
former Senator John Ronan. Fol
lcf&ing the reception a dance was
held.
Hyder now has about 400 resi
dents, he said. There Is substantial
development work being done on
properties along the American sido
of the line and there Is generally a
feeling of optimism both at Hyder
and at Ketchikan regarding the fu
ture for the camp.
The party returned from Hyder to
Ketchikan Sunday. While at the
latter place, Governor Bone said he
was informed that an Australian
barkentlne was In port loading 2.
000,000 feet of lamber for Aus
tralia, which was Bald to be the first
large shipment of Alaska lumber
j to be made to that part of the
t world. The Unalga left Kettchlkan
Sunday, about midnight and arrived
I here yesterday afternoon.—Empire.
I NOItWAY MAY USE ALASKAN
SI'Hl'CK IN REFORESTING
That Alaskan spruce may be the
• salvation of deforested section of
Western Norway, is indicated by ef
| forts being made by the Forestry
■ Bureau of that country to secure im
i mediate shipment of supplies of seed
| from Sitka spruce. William K. Britt,
' Norwegian Consul in Alaska, baa
I b?en asked by the Forestry Service
I of Norway to handle the matter.
' All of the islands and mainland
! comprising the western part of Nor
i way were stripped bare of trees
! many years ago, said Mr. Britt. The
, Norwegian government has been glv
! iug serious attention to the problem
[of reforestation and h:LS for a long
time conducted experiments as to
what kinds of threes are best adapted
for that purpose.
In a letter to Mr. Britt. the Nor
wegian Forestry manager said that
in its efforts to secure the most suit
able trees for western Norway ex
periments were conducted with treei
from Oregon, Washington and Brit
ish Columbia, as well as from Alas
ka, Of all the trees tried out those
from Alaska showed up most advan
tr.geously. In fact, the results ob
j tained are said to have been highly
1 gratifying to Norway and indicate
that the solution of the reforestation
problem in the western section ol
that country has been found.
Mr. Britt was asked to make ar
rangements necessary for obtaining
seeds of Sitka spruce from Baranof
Chichagof, Prince of Wales and Rev
illagigedo islands. Permission to get
these seeds has been obtained from
the U. S. Forest Service. Mr. Britt
' estimates that it will cost approxi
| mately $2,000 to gather the seed and
' prepare them for shipment. He
has so informed the Norwegian For
estry Bureau and expects to be in
structed to go ahead with the work
in the near future as the desire has
been expressed by it to have the
shipments made before winter Btarts.
