It is rather disturbing to note the , possibility that the print paper "in- 1 funt industry' may lose out in its ef- 1 forts to get a tariff tHfct will shut out . all print paper from foreign parts. ( It seems that there are Republican as ( well as Monocrotic congressmen who i are willing to let the paper spruce trees of Germany and Sweden and J even Russia compete with our own f rapidly disappearing spruce trees. ' f Of course, print paper manufactur- t ing is no infant industry in America. * ■ And nobody claims it to be. Hencereference in the foregoing paragraph is to the infant industry of profiteering of which the American print paper manufacturers gave us such an excellent exhibition up to a year or so ago. r Our spruce forests have been rapidly y disappearing into the pulp vats of the t! said paper manufacturers until, to- " wards the end of the war, it became apparent that there would be a shortage of paper. Thereupon, the prices c of paper, which had sold from 2 to 3 . S cents a pound, was rapidly shoved to 6 cents, 10 cents antlflken as high as. ^ 18 and 20 cents a pouml. Take It from us, the profiteering c that was done in paper over two or J three years was one oUthe most gorgeous, things you ever saw in American * business! Then Sweden and Norway and Germany began shipping paper to C this country to sell for as low ^s 4 cents — and still cheaper, if necesaary. n That killed the "paper profiteering in- ^ fant industry for the time being. ' s Now, the silver-tongued profiteers are asking for a good stiff tariff to = prevent the pulp paper from foreign, spruce woods to come into this country. Such a tariff would enable them to advance prices again at will. Why stop a gallant profiteer from soaking every man, woman and child who buys a paper ? Huh? WHY DEBS WAS PARDONED A good many editorial writers are printing columns of analysis of Brother Dougherty's long statement of his reasons for recotnmeotling Debs' pardon. Being a law yer, Brother Daugherty didn't give the teal reason in bold, blunt English lootgwees, and the editorial writers, although they know the reason, |ttrfrt to beat about the bush also. Precisely this: the American government preferred not to give the extremist.- a chance to make Debs a martyr. Both Del.-- anil his friends wanted him to rrmain in prison at least two or three year, longer. You see there are millions of foreigners in this country v ho" are easy picking 'or smart American agitators and the latter were rapidly making the foreign brother— and sister— feel that Debwot very- badly (rented by "the rotten American C"venimenL" Then, too. there ure lots of simple American* who tljink little ami who • enrt-y their hearts on their sleeves. These are witling to believe more in the fact that "Debs is SUCH a kindly man" than they were willing to »>elieve in the law and constitution of thfi land. Debs didn't g,-i his frev.-.tTTPhw. 1 Sail lu >ay, they misted him from jaiv heime he rt ,i!.l i»- thoroughly martyr-y isod. 'Ttjaamuch as a free, well-fed jaw .-mith doesn't produce large gobs of sympathy, we believe you'll, find the good-natured Mr. Debs will berather peeved for quite a while just because he couldn't continue to sleep under prison auspices. i

'HALTS OCEAN CITY BOARDWALK CHANGE ( Writ Secured From Court Same Day Council was to Act : . The plan of Ocean City to move its : . boaniw'alk ocean word £100 to (100 feet - between Fourth and Eighth streets has ' ' l>een temporarily halted by a writ of » I certiorari obtained by Ott A Carr. of Camden, in behalf of Joseph M. Row- " | land, a prominent Phib-nlelphia busi<1 ness man, who owns Lincoln Hotel, the _ Strand and Park Theatres and much other property. _ ' The writ was obtained from Su- ■ preme Court Justice Black ami will i lie argued at Trenton in the term of i court beginning February 21. Under the ordinance it is proposed j : to make the extension by way. of a i curve between the two streets, its l ' furthest distance out being about 600 • feet. t It is contended by Rowland that It t , is not for the "best interest of the re - sort and will operate to the disad- ! - vantage of property owners along the I . beachfront because the hjgh-watet i " mark is constantly- changing. I This has been particularly noticeable last summer ami fali. From De- i cember 2 toTO, it is alleged this mark ; come further in by at least 100 1 feet. It is also alleged that the ordinance is uncertain as to whether the rights of the property owner* are to be taken : condemnation proceedings or by i ; agreement. There is said to have been a senti- ; ment in the resort for an extension. | but that plan had in mind the extenj sion of the line beginning at Delancy I place and running out about 600 feet . Sixth street and cutting over in a , straight line to Ninth street.

The comparison is that in Ocean City the cari (meter's hammer is heard all over the 1 resort. All records for building have « broken. If these new cottages ? I were being built for sale by specula- .= tors there might lie some question a- I t a possible slump in real estate | • values but nearly all are being erected - v. ' , will occupy them. Cer- : tainly the hard times have not caused n slow-up ir. the expenditure of money for sejishoie homes. Having a cottage at the shore is • something like having a "bug" for an : automobile. One'ts net happy until he I has one. . . *
