Entered in the Post Ofllce at S * Isle City, N. J.. as second-class malt THE TREND OF TRADE. American exports ••f bnadstut. meat and dairy produti... ti ll on IT.t 000,000 during the fiscal yeai ••'id • June Soth, 1S20. cutupared «.•* tli fiscal year ISIU. according to the oinoial figures of the Department of t, merce. Just puhlislii'd. Exiiorts of breadsiuffs declined MW.ooo.oou. while meat and dairy piuducls tell f.';y5,o00i* 000. Our imports ot loud.-tufis for 1929 accounted for about 27 per cent of our total imports valued at 95,239,OoO.OOO, or about ll.4oo.ooo.ovo as our bill lor foreign loud-, competed with about $870,000,000 for tue previous year. Did the price of loud go down in accordance with Hie assurances ot the Democratic fr. • iradersl Ask Cox. That 'he farming muj.ests are fully alive t-i the prospect for deadly foreign competition in foods in the American mark I is evidenced by tue wan ng issued by H<nt> C. Wallace, publisher ot Wallace's farmer, alter an Interview with Mr. Harding recently. when Wallace said: "The beginning of Rome's decline came when the Italian peninsular became incapable of piuducing iu food supply.” Eightyeight per cent ol the toodstufls and food entrants competing with the agiicu'.. ral interests of this country t ame in free of duty during this last fiscal year. “I believe in the protective tarifi policy; I know re shall be calling for its saving Americanism again.” says Mr. Harding, and the American fanners will indorse this view in NO-

TH E LANE THAT TURNS. It is refreshing to find former Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Labe, one of the dlr*-ctoi> ot a movement "To disseminate lurth'■ knowledge of the meaning ot the I'nitei. Suites Constitution” with a tiew to inculeatin;. in the minds ul the many millions of aliens and foreign born hv Ins in tbe United State* American ideals and principles. Lane hiniselt was bora in Canada, but his upstanding Americanism puts his former chieftain ui tbe blush, and it was Wilson internaUonaliMU and autocracy that induced Lane to ne'er his relationship with the President. At a recent address to Williams College Mr lame said: "When society finds a man who chows nerve he should be- promoted Hut his nerve should la- linked with sanity. Me should not mistake hysterical obsession lor cons'rue live statesmanship.'' Looks as though Lane had Harding in mind as deserving promotion, and Mr. WUson and Mr. fox as afflicted w ith byclerical obsession.

AN OILY MANAGER. One reason given by the Democrat* lor the firing of Homer Cummings and tbe biting of George White as their campaign manager is thin the former i» not a business man. Cummings is a lawyer by pn*l« asion and has *or • «*! a* corporation counsel of Stamford. fisld 'iounty, and director o' the Sumlord National Hank. White is an oil produo-r, and !• membeiinr that on*of the largest contributors ic past Demu'-ratie cabif aigu fund.- has been Edward Dobony, am ther oil producer now interested in Mexican oils, it may be that While's affiliation may b> effective in pjoduiing something eisi tui Mr. Cox's csnifiaign; and it is t" be jvmembe.-eii ihat the Democratic patty him Mac.-d no iimit on campaign , «-©ninbuu<>n this year. What the people warn they will go and get. What they don't want has to be taken to them and forced upon them. Which explains why Senator Ha'dmg Is staying at home, and why iGov. Ccx Is preparing for a feerfab atvmplcg tour into every State.
