LOOK OUT, NOT IN,
AND LEND A HAND
The Motto of Doctor Hale's Famous
Society a Good One for American-Trade
Expansionists
TUB opening of a summer school in
Washington by the Pan -American
Union yesterday for those Interested
in foreign trndc, especially with the
countries In this hemisphere, it likely
to result In a more Intelligent under
standing among business men of t'ne
conditions under which trade can be
expanded.
The manufacturer who knows any
thing about thoso conditions is excep
tional, lie has'not found it necessary to
inform himself, for he has been yiblc to
sell at home nbout all that ho can pro
duce. A few manufacturers have been
engaged iu the export business, but that
hiis been merely to dispose of their
surplus. Still fewer have manufac
tured especially for the foreign market.
Many manufacturers who sent their
agents nbrond were dlscourngedbecauRC
the agents were not able to do business.
The agents were typical American
drummers, who imagined tlvy could do
btifincss with men of a different race
jn the same manner that they did busi
ness with men at home. They were
Ignorant of racial psychology in tho first
place, and they did not know the cus
toms of the country In tho second
place.
The reports of the American consuli
abroad arc full of the records of such
failures and full of information on the
way to avoid them iu the future. But
no serious attempt I as been made to
profit by the instruction coutaincd iu
these reports.
The nuniose of the summer school in
Washington, which is to last for thirty
days. Is to interest busiuess men In tho
possibilities of foreign trade and to
point out how our trade can be made to
grow.
This trade has expanded marvelously
since the beginning of the present cen
tury, but its exnansion has been chiefly
in noncompetitive products, among which
are included those products which are
not produced in other countries in
sufficient quantities to meet the world
demand.
Agricultural implements nfford an
example of the noncompetitive product.
The exports grew from ?5,000.000 in
18M to $40,000,000 in 101.".. Steel af
fords an example of expansion in trade
in a product of which the world was
demanding nil thatthe mills could turn
out. In the twenty years between 1S9U
and 1013 itt exports grew from $30,
000,000 to $304,000,000.
We have supplied food to the rest of
tho world. In 1803 the exports of pre
pared and unprepared foodstuffs
amounted to $400,000,000, and the. ex
ports of manufactured and semimanu
factured nrticlea were only $170,000,-
000.
Twenty years later, in 1013, the -exports
of foodstuffs had grown to only
S410.000.000. nn increase of $10,-
000,000, whilu the exports of manu
factured and semimanufactured articles
had increased to $1,181,000,000.
That is, in twenty years the exports
of American factories had increased 700
per cent.
The more recent figures will show a
still greater expansion, but they arc af
fected by the abnormal conditions of the
war and it is not fair to use them in a
comparison.
If the war had not intervened it would
have been necessary to give serious at
tention to a foreign trade policy long
before now. McKinley saw that condi
tion approaching when ho said in his
Inst speech that we must reconsider our
old policies iu the light of changed con
ditions. The figures for 1013 show how
correctly he diagnosed the tendencies of
American trade.
The revolutionary changes that the
war has brought about in the financial
rotations of the various nations, the
United States among them, force a
much more radical reconsideration of
our trndc policies than McKinley lind
in mind.
The fir-t effect of these changes is
seen in the beginning of a study of
trade with tho South American coun
tries in the summer school in Washing-
,iton. '1 ho war compelled inese conn-
'tries to buy in the United States things
which they had been buying in I'uropc
Wo cannot keep thnt market when
the European nations are again in con
dition to compete with us unless we
become ns skillful in our dealings with
the South Americans as the Europeans
were.
South American trade experts must
bo developed, and then they must be
employed by the exporters. But they
will not be employed, even if they shall
be produced, unless the exporters are
convinced of their usefulness.
It has taken years to persuade manu
facturers that it pajK thorn to hire
trained chemists and physicists in their
plants. A few such men havo boon
employed in tho past, but their value
has been underestimated.
What these trained men did during
the war In showing what could bo done
in n score of different industries has
convinced men who were skeptical bo
fore that tho trained specialist is worth
much more to bim than any other man
in his plant.
The head of one great industry said
n few months ago that lie needed l-'OO
chemists but could not get them. The
colleges aro not turning them out fast
enough to meet the demand.
When tho exporters seriously turn
their attention to getting competitive
trade they will be forced to call in ex
perts to help them. Indeed, they nre
certain to discover that they cannot
hold tho trade which camo to them dur-
Mug the war uulcss they adopt new
methods.
This trade is worth keeping.
Our total exports the year after the
war began amounted to $1,400,000,000,
or nearly 10 per ceut of the total In
tcrnal trade of tho country. This per
centage is likely to increase rathor than
decrease, forie pppulatlon is leaving.

But, as nlready Indicated, an appreci

turers before they will turn their atten

A CHANCE OF REAL PEACE
AFAVOUITC pastime of the croak
ing classes is to enumerate "new
wars" throughout the globe and to con.
trast the situation with tho onco rosy
expectation of world .peace. The pro
cedure exerts a certain sensational ap
peal. The critic whb Insists that the
cessation of strife with Gcrmnny was
a mere pompous and delusory gesture
and that, despite It, civilization is de
scending pell-mell to tho bow-wows Is
often rated on n fearless ironist nnd
the arch foe of anything so loathsome
as "fancied security." f
It is easy enough, howpver, to classify
ns "wars" many species of disturbances
which have a way of agitating various
parts of so large a planet as ours.
The description is tempting nnd un
doubtedly is loosely used. ' But it does
apply with significant force to the pres
ent conflict between Poland and Soviet
.Russia. The twenty or thirty "wars"
which are alleged to stain tho peace
hardly come up to the old-fashloneik
requirements. In one day s cablegrams
they provoke an appalling I'crlsis."
Later advices suggest that somehow the
catastrophe has been nvcrtedT
It is, as n matter of fact, the Polish
situation and that alone which is au
thority for the belief thnt tho .world
has forgotten how to lay dovcu its nrms.
Given tho cessation of warfare on the
eastern frontiers of the new republic, its
moral effects would bo tremendous. An
opportunity to end this really major
conflict seems to be at hand in the note
of the Soviet Government consenting In
response to a British pica to, subscribe
to an armistice.
The duty of the Entente in this case
is clear. Pressure should be brought
upon Polnnd to conic to terms, for the
war in which that nation hns been en
gaged has dally assumed aspects more
and more serious. Itussin, according to
reports, has been, for the time being
nt least, wondrously milted iu its re
sistance to invasion by the Poles of
territory far to the oast of a Hue tenta
tively fixed by the Pence Conference.
Messrs. Shaw nnd Turner, members
of' the recent British labor deputation
to Kussin, have lately stated very em
phatically that a new nationnl senti
ment hns arisen in the former empire.
Enemies to the Soviets and their im
possible social and political philosophy,
so for ns internal nffnlrs nro con
cerned, the Mcnshoviki nnd the Social
Democrats, arc back of Lcniue in an hpur
of what is regarded as national peril.
Plainly the Poles, otherwise entitled
to the genuine sympathy and sunnort
of civilization, will have to icalizc the
folly of their sudden wave of imperial
ism or else run the risk of losing
frontiers to which they nre justly cn
titled. On the other hnnd peace be
tween their revived nation nnd Kussla
will mean the end of the only wnr which
is really a menace to the now world
order. A basis of agreement between
the belligerents cannot come too soou.
WORK AS RECREATION
rtOVEUXOU COOLIDGE.of Massa
vJ chusetts, is not the first man to
turn to hard manual work for rest.
The Republican candidate for the vice
presidency is on the family farm iu
Vermont, where ho rises at (1 In the
morning to guide a plow or cut wood
for ten or twelve hours dally. He ex
pects to return grently refreshed to his
job iu Massachusetts. His summer
program will startle n great many
people, who believe thnt it is a better
rule to stay up till 3 in the morning
in a cabnrct or rush aimlessly about in
motors or rolling chairs and let others
take their exercise for them.
The vacation season is in full swine.
And the holiday habit is yet to be muck
raked. One of these days some one will
make the experiment. Certainly we have
grown to depend too heavily on ma-chino-made
fun. Few men would un
dertake to find rest iu tho role of a farm
laborer. They prefer to cat too much
and sleep too little nnd to have n dis
orderly und exhnusting time generally.
Coolidge, of Massachusetts, may not
be having n lively or a joyous summer,
but he will return better fit than if he
had been content to go oyaging in the
palm gardens.
FILBERT STREET PLAN
rplIE diversion of tho Eighteenth and
- Twentieth street cars to Filbert
street from the City Hall to the points
where they turn northward is the first
of the many new rerouting plans to be
practically tested. Its results will de
termine n vexed question.
For some years the Transit Company
lias been in doubt concerning the vnlue
of its trackage on narrow streets.
Against the blocks likely to occur on
such thoroughfares haB been raised the
other objection of crowding the wider
avenues with trolley cars. But as the
jam on Market street is one of the very
worit of the obstacles in the way of
better service, the Filbert street experi
ment is made, if not hopefully at lenst
with nn open mind.
if the smallest appreciable advantage
s gained, tho proposal to employ San
son street also as n relief route should
bo adopted.
We learn from a dis-
Tlio New pntch from "dear ol
Slang Lu'nnon" that the slang
expert hns discarded
"Old inn" nnd "Old dear" for "Old
fruit" nnd "My festive." We venture
the opinion that, as ever, the popular

THE DRUG HABIT
"Dream ' Powders"' and Their
Growing Uso In This City Co
caine the Grate'st Curse,
Absinthe, Hasheesh and
Others
By GEORGE NOX McCAIN
A PROMINENT physician of this
city, whose prnctlco runs tho gamut
of the social scale, Indorses the decla
ration of Director of "Public Snfcty
Cortclyou thnt tho use of drugs Is rap
idlv Increasing in Philadelphia.
The fact will become more apparent,
he believes, as the mouths and years go
by.
Just now the hnblU represented by
two classes of addicts ; bno thnt is just
le'nrnliig and therefore extremely enrc
ful to conceal tho vice, the other the
nntiirnllv impulsive nnd neurotic class
of individuals who "plunge" in the use
of drugs nnd supply, tho bulk of phy
sician's cases and criminal exploits as
a result of excessive use.
Heroin is die real "devil drug." It
inspires the user with n degree of fnl?o
nnd momentary courage yvhich no words
can adequately describe.
"A heroin dopester, who is ordinarily
a creature of weak moral fiber nud phy
sical staminn, becomes n perfect lion in
courage and n wolf in destructive ten
dencies uudcr its influence," said the
physician.
"I agree with Director Cortclyou that
most of the crimes now committed in
our large cities, and particularly lu
Philadelphia, are perpetrated by drug
crazed men, most of them recent recruits
to the growing army of drug licnds."
COCAINE or "coke," ns it Is popu
larly known in the underworld, is
the drug most favored, uecousu n is su
easily administered. It is only thirty
six years since Dr. Carl Kollcr, an ain
known Bohemian physician, announced
its discovery.
Anesthetic efTects of Hhc drug had
been discovered twenty-nine years be
fore, hut it was regarded only ns a lab
oratory curiosity until Kollcr s an
nouncement. The drue hns created more widespread
disaster and distress among civilized na
tions, In proportion to Its years ot gen
eral use. than any other drug, possibly,
in the history of mankind.
Bellcvuo Hospital, New York, was the
first institution to direct attention to
the incrcaso in its use twenty-eight
years ngo.
One of the peculiarities of the co
caine habit of tliot time was that a
majority of its victims, were physi
cians. This fact was partly accounted
for by their efforts to arrive nt a
thorough understanding of the action
and effect of the new drug.
The first nationally wide case thnt
directed attention to the danger of the
formation of the cocaine habit was that
of Dr. Charles Bradley, of Chicago. He
commenced experimenting with the
drug, using himself, his wlfo nnd his
children us subjects for his experiments.
In n short time he became a mental
and physical wreck, lost a large practice
iu Chicago, and became u vagrant.
This led to a careful, study of the
drug, which was accentifnted by tho ense
of a prominent physician of Pittsburgh,
who, having formed the huhlt, became
violent and under the delusion that he
was being attacked by burglars began
firing right nnd left and almost .killed
several persons.
OPIATES, or dream-powders, in some
slinpe or fomv have been used for
centuries by mankind. HashcCsh, coca
leaves and later' on opium and mor
phine, were followed by cocaine, heroin
nnd other alkaloids. ,,
Absinthe, first regarded as n medi
cine, ultimately beenmc n nntlonnl evil
of France and its manufacture and sale
were abolished in that country within
the last decade.
It occupies n place between opium
and cocaine nt one end of the terrible
line nnd alcohol at the other.
Through its use by the phsiciaus of
the French armies in the Algerian War
of 1841 it grew to be the curse of
France. '
The soldiers in Algiers were ordered
to mix nbsluthc in small quantities three
times u day with the ordinary vrench
wine to ward off African fever. The
soldiers began to like it nnd absinthe
alone soou began to usurp the purple
vintage. ,
When tho victorious soldiers returned
to Paris they brought the habit with
them. Some of the most famous men of
France in the latter half of the last
century offered up their brains nnd
their lives on the livid altar of tibsiuthe ;
just ns cocaine mm its allied drugs are
ruining' thousands in Philadelphia 'to
day. THE grip of this drug, or liquid
rather, was ns powerful and tena
cious as opium or cocaine. The differ
ence lay In the fact that it drovo its
victims to grotesque rather than crim
inal acts.
Tln.i.lnln Irn wl.n ti.nnclntn.l Tl'a
works into French, painted his hair the
same tint ns the beverage from an odd
fancy that the out-ido of his head
should match the absinthe color of bis
brnln.
Alfred do Musset, who wns called the
French Byron, and the brilliant Guy de
Mnupasbnnt were two other victims of
the tinted horror.
French physicians considered the rav
ages of absinthe far more destructive
thuu those of either cocaine or opium.
Opium, cocaine nnd other hnbit
forming drugs havo a beneficent place
in medicine ; absinthe had none, or at
least very little.
THERE is n wide divergence of views
nmong physicians as to the vnluo of
certain of theso drugs. Some physicians
oppose the use of opium, morphine nnd
chloral except in extreme cases, quite as
much ns they oppose the use of whisky
in their practice.
One of the most interesting of tho
many discussions on this subject took
place nt the meeting of the Philadel
phia County Medical Society nomo
years ago in which tho subject was
threshed out at length.
Tho disputants wero Drs. J. P.
Crozcr Griffith, Thomas J, Mays, Jo
seph Hoffman, W. M. Capp, William
II. Welch, T. Ridgcway Barker and M.
Price.
Doctor Griffith on that occasion de
livered an exceptionally able address In
defense of the beneficent uso of opium,
combating the idea that "opium is an
unmitigated evil, a drug which should
novcr bo employed under any circum
stances whatever, inasmuch as it never
did anything but harm."
IT IS n generally recognized fact that
iu tho modem prnetico of meilcino
the raugo of drugs prcscrlbd is coil
imrilvely limited.
An analysis of 27.000 prescriptions,
by nn officer, of the American Pharma
ceutical Association", showed that tho
pharmacopeia somo years back was
sadly neglected by physicians.
Only ucventccn vegetable drugs were
ipreseribed nnd more than' one hundred
drugs of, vegetable origlrj nyglected(T-ca
melnln were honored In the prescriptions

The President nnd Cox nre said to

J,cngue of I Nations. Which, presum
ably, means that the governor Is willing
to forget his pro-German editorials if
everybody else will.
Added testimony Is given to the
worth of tho Boy Scout movement by
tho admiration expressed by German
town Hospital physicians at the first nid
given by the youngsters to n boy who
had fallen and bToTien his leg.
There is nt least one optimist in
the Democratic party. On his arrival
at -the White House to visit the Presi

ter addressed "The Hon. James M.
Cox, White House." But nil optimist
is very frequently a darned poor
prophet.

Considerably rdduced. Is it mere coin
ciilo"" that American coal operators
should. Immediately following the news,
find a means o : providing New England
with the coal she has been demanding
nnd demanding iu vain?
A dispatch from Washington states
that col operators and railroad execu
tives have .i plan to facilitate the dls
tiibut'on of coal to the Northwest, New
England and Canndian territory; that
they have submitted it to the Interstate
Commerce Commission ; but thnt details
aro withheld until the commission has
time to study It. That's the worst of
these serial stories. They always leave
you iu the air at the most thrilling
point.
Plans to provide New England with
coal have, of course, nothing to do with
the recent report of tho New England
coal committee to the governors of six
states. The present action of operators
nnd railroad executives is merely n co
incidence. That report set forth that
the coal operators preferred to send
thelrconl abroad because the Interstate
Commerce Commission would thus be
less likely to call them to task for prof
iteering nud the foreigners didn't care
what they paid bo ioiig as they got the
coal.

HOW DOES IT
STRIKE YOU?
By KELLAMY
THE young orator walks. across the
hall with the manner of Ty Cobb
going to bat.
Hc does not hesitate.
He walks quickly like a man 'about
to meet nn emergency nnd perfectly
sure he could meet it. Ho goes to tho
rostrum like a general seeing his men
in confusion and confident that he has
only to put himself at the bead of them
in order to reform them instantly In
the face of the enemy.
Every movement indicates confidence
the stride, the way the feet are pinced
on the ground, the swing of the arms,
tho carriage ipf the head.
He does not walk as one feeling his
way ami uncertain of his purpose, 'but
as one who never in his lifo knew a
doubt.
His chin is firm, not obstinate; not
consciously -set, hut silre. You feel us
ho goes to the speaker s tiesu mat tiicro
is the most perfect embodiment of con
fidence. q q
H
E DOES not sny anything.
say
anything.
People who think much nro never
confideut. ' ,
Thoso with full mimta never have
such firm chins ns the young orntor.
They don't walk with his cocksure
ness. They don't use their arms as ho
docs. .
'They nro balancing two lines of no
tion in their minds, nnd the delicate art
of intellectual balanciug affects their
walk nnd their gestures. They nre uot
sure.
But to bo n young orator It is not
necessary to say anything.
Kerensky never said anything.
Yet ho talked his way to tho front
of the Russian revolution and made all
the world think for a few months that
he was tho savior of Russia.
q q q
IT IS not what you say nine times
out of ten but the way you sny it.
It was not what Kerensky said.
It was 'the way ho said it. lie was
weak.
But ho was a flaming personality.
When he spoke he seemed strong.
His voico inspire!! troubled Russia
with a sense idf security.
They call our young orator the young
Kerensky of tho Northwest. Hence
tho propriety of bringing In tho Rus
sian leader.
In private life this confident young
man is tho inventor of n bomb or of n
cogwheel iu nn automobile, or something
liKe inni; nn engineer oy training but
nn orator by choice, headed for Con
gress or the presidency, for heaven only
knows whero a young man will stop
who can walk across the iloor iu a way
to nrrcst attention, nnd mount the pint
form in n wny thnt brings a hush lu the
noisiest audience and tills it with the
instant belief that now It Is going to
get tho Inst word on.the subject it is
thinking of.
qv q q
AND when ono frjjys that it is not
what the orator says' but tho way ho
says it that counts ono must make
further reservations.
This young man commands his audi
ence tho instant lie has taken two steps
toward tho platform.
Ho docs not havo to speak.
Tho audience nioy not know who he
is.
It may never havo heard his voice.
And when ho does speak, you realize
if you aro critical, which most auditors
are not, that ho has nothluir hut timf
arresting confidence of mien nnd gait
mm iiuoiuiu, nml, jiuuii oi assuming
command.
Our orator's equipment consists of an
eloquent facility in speech, a btiong
rich aud harmonious voice, an Im
pressive presenco, an actor's skill Jn
facial expression, gestures and bodily
mot,lous.
rnniS young orator has nonn nf ll.ncA

The Young Orator It's Not Exact-
I.. Iiri.-i r o il-.j ii.
iy tr iiui iiv ,aau3, out I lie
Blooming Wag Ifc Sags It
about thirty. His voice has neither
power nor richness.
It is a little husky.
It has none of tho organ tones of
William J. Bryan's voice.
His gestures nro awkward, forcible,
that is all like his voice they lack flexi
bility and variety. His language is com
monplace; it has no virtuo but
punch."
His facial expression never changes;
it is ono of invarlablo confidence. His
Ideas 'aro ordinary ; ns already ex
plained, ho says nothing.
Ho snaps his jaws together, bo stamps
his feet, ho flicks his hands out into
sudden rigidity. You sco tlie firm chin.
You henr him say "Wo shall do"
whatever it is tho audience wants to
do. And ho stands printed on tho
mind in capitals of nn indescribablo
height.
Tho feet bang the floor.
Tho chin shines In sudden illuml
nntlon. And you, or at least all your neigh
bors, jump to their feet nnd yell, waving
their hats in the air.
All tho young man has said' is "wo
shall do it" in n way that makes every
body confident for a moment that it will
he done.
Doubt and that young man can't
dwell together one moment.
q q q
IT IS the way he says it, bis extraor
dinary capacity to inspiro for n
moment in others that perfect confi
dence he himself feels.
All of us have coward souls which
want to feel at somebody's cxVicnso or
ether the sense of confidence. And with
that senso for n moment wo nro lifted
out of ourselves.
Wo rise to higher levels of courage
and faith.
And tbls young- man, tho Kerensky
of tho Northwest, has tho extraordinary
gift, by the way ho walks across tho
floor, by tho way he stamps his feet
nnd shows his chin, by n sudden rigidity
in Ills nrras,, of inspiring confidence.
When he Bars "wn shnll dn It." for
a moment all doubts vanish.
The impossible ideal is realized.
Wo ceaso to ho men of littlo faith.
And wo nro lifted up by our belief.
Ho drnmntizessus for ourselves ns he
rocs, reformers or what not.
For n moment "wo shull do it."
It Is Intoxicating to feel confident.
Tho young orator fills you with his
confidence.
i i q
WITH only that gift, the arresting
mnnncr of taking the plntform, tho
stamp of the feet, tho flash of tho chin,
nnd tho ftowcr to bay "we shall do It"
in n way that leaves no doubts, tho
young orator has organized three states.
Ho lias heaven knows how many'
followcrsf
Ho is indefatigable In making
speeches.
Whenever men nre' gathered together
ho is there, walking to tho platform
like an Alexander taking command of
his men, stamping bis feet, flashing his
chin, nnd saying "wo shall do it."
Somo time vc shall.
