One U tht they held the theory very firmly that the Orient, meaning chiefly China and India, always bought ailTer durlrjt a rise In price, and then simply held on to It. The other reason U that the treasury baa a tremendous respect for the wisdom and sagacity of the Oriental metal dealers, trained as they have been for thousands of years, from father to son. In speculation In these commodities. It is not the amount of silver exported by China which Is disturbing. If there were any thought that this would be all. and that the threatened embargo would be placed on further exports, there would be nothing alarm-in- ? about such an amount But the government experts do not like the Idea that silver could have been bought In the Far East at present prices for export The really trouhWome feature Is that these trained speculators of the Far East did not buy all the silver that was offered locally at any such prices. It makes the treasury wonder If these Eastern speculators do not believe, the United States government Is going to succeed In Its object of putting the world price of silver up. Meanwhile senators and members of , the house from the Western states are -. getting ready for a real drive for blmetallsm In the next session of congress. ; They are talking It 'to their campaign speeches, critlclxing the "lukewarm" attitude of the government and Insisting that what has been done. In nationalizing silver at around 60 cents and In pajlng a higher price for newly mined silver, Is Just the opposition, that they had made a with the generous offer to United States In stabilizing the dollar and pound, and returning to the gold standard, but that this offer had not been accepted. Which would, rather effectually, shut off criticism of the British government's failure to stabilize or to return to the gold standard.

But the government Is not anxious to renew Its silver battle with Capitol Hill. Despite private claims that the White House Imposed Its will on congress In the silver bill of last session, which claims are very much open to doubt on the face of the returns, the administration might find Itself "stam peded or steamrollered on the silver issue. On the other hand If It can be demonstrated, before January, when congress meets, that the effect of the government's silver policy has already been to advance the world price of silver sharply, the sliver senators and representatives would, prove much less effectual In their "fight There might be a disposition to wait and see what the policy would bring forth, without forcing the government's hands any further. All of which Is threatened, of course, by this selling of silver by China. If China should start to sell on a wide front, no purchases by this government would avail to put the price up. either thehlte a "-- '...i': . See British Trick Proposals have been made to the government by Great Britain for a permanent stabilization of the pound and the dollar, with both countries returning to the gold standard. But there was a catch In the proposals, so obvious a catch that the officials here do not believe the British were sincere In making their offer. The catch was that the United States should fix "the value of the dollar In gold first Then Great Britain would fix the value of the pound later. Apparently the United States would have nothing to say about the price at which the pound should be fixed In gold, any more than the British would have to say about the price In gold at which the dollar should be 'fixed. But the British would know, when they fixed the price of the pound, just where the United States had fixed the price of the dollar, nence they could cut their cloth accordingly, so to speak, giving their manufacturers any advantage In lower costs that they might decide was necessary. Officials here say privately the whole thing was very much under the rose that while the British would have been willing to play ball If the United States had accepted their very offer, they do not believe the British had any Idea that their proposal would be accepted. They think the purpose was to enable government spokesmen, on the floor of parliament, to reply to questions from . d ; The reason the American officials think that the British did not really want the offer accepted Is something else again. There Las been a theory here for several years that the British did not want to stabilize the pound In gold at anything like as high a figure as anyone was thinking about at the time. This reason, which Is important In figuring out the probability of a return to the gold standard by Great Britain, is that the British simply cannot continue to carry the burden of interest on their public debt with the pound at anything like Its Great Britain was present value. the only one o' the allies which went back to the gold standard after the war at anything like the prewar value of Its currency. The Italians marked down the value of the lira from about 20 cents to under 5 cents when they returned to the gold standard. The French marked down their franc from about 20 cents to about 4 cents gold, the Belgians from 20 cents to 3. while the Austrlans. almost wiped put their currency and the Germans completely wiped out theirs. When the pound reached its approximate low water "rcark (ii dollars) of $3.25 prior to our going off gold, this writer pointed out "that best opinion here was It would have to go considerably lower before Great Britain could stand her debt burdens. The pound has not advanced. In terms of gold. . The dollar has simply made a slightly, greater decline. But according.. to best financial Judgment here, the only thing that can prevent Ultimate fixing of- the gold value of the pound much lower than tt Is today Is a tremendous advance in world prlc.es. Maryland Politics Always Inexplicable to outsiders and for, that matter most residents alarylahd politics Is' approaching a new high water mark for blzarrenesa 1 this year. To beglix with, we have a United States J senator, Philips Lee making the race for governor as Instead of running for senator, despite the fact that the obvious Democratic nominee against hlm George L. Radcllffe. has never run before, and is therefore as a vote . totally, unknown quantity fitter..' Then we have a sitting governor, who has had four terms, although no one else ever succeeded in getting more than one, Insisting on standing fora fifth term as governor, Instead of stepping Into the senate, as his party leaders Implored him to do and - .'.' Golds-boroug- every one concedes he could have done. His Insistencies; almost wrecked the party organization. This Is Albert Cabell Ritchie,' known to Washington correspondents aa; the "More or Less Permanent Governor of Maryland.' - ' Senator Goldsborough himself has been governor of the state. In fact he and Lowndes, who was elected back in 1805 during a revolt against the old Gorman-Rasimachine, are the only two Republican governors the "Maryland Free State" has ever had. Each Was succeeded at the end of his first 'term by a Democrat Now he Is anxious to be governor again. There are a number of reasons for hIs.ch.oice. Most Important Is, the strange situation In which Governor Ritchie finds himself. The absolute boss of the state for more than fifteen years, the governor f encountered opposition to his wishes this year. Senator Millard F. Tydlngs, known In Washington as "Glad Tidings," decided that Mr. Ritchie had been governor long enough. Senator Tydlngs comes up four years from now, and It occurred to him that the governor might Just decide after four years more as governor that he would like to round out his career In the senate, which would retire Senator Tydings from public life. Despite the extraordinary upsets and unpredictable exigencies of politics leaders continue to plan ahead. So Senator Tydlngs wanted Governor Ritchie to come to the senate this year, and he decided that he would do his own picking of the new governor, thus actually making himself boss of the state In place of Governor Ritchie. n i.. .1 l J Japanese Method Winning Favor in U.

For Maryland nominates by conventions, and a small number of the 23 counties balance Baltimore city, though the city has more than half the population of the state. Baltimore's mayor, Howard Jackson, had also been counting on this deGovernor from Ritchie's fection strength In the eastern shore and had thrown his hat In the ring. But in some mysterious way the governor Induced Senator Tydlngs' candidate. Radcllffe, to withdraw and run for the senate, after wires had been pulled which made It impossible for Mayor Jackson to get the eastern shore delegates. The mayor withdrew In a huff, blaming Mr. Radcllffe.

Padova, who created this exquisite type of footwear, has combined black lace and black satin in this model, with white satin under the lace to bring out the delicate patterning. A great vogue Is In promise for this type of luxury footwear, this coming fall and winter. The piling ' of chicks frequently causes heavy losses. This habit U common with chicks rang'ng In ag from two to four months, but Is most disastrous with chicks Just at the tlmi heat Is discontinued, says the Missouri Farmer. To avoid these losses often taxes the Ingenuity of the poultryman. The danger ceases as soon as the chicks take to the roosts. To encourage early roosting, roosts should be Installed at least by the time the chicks are six weeks old. These should be placed In the rear of the house only a few inches above the Boor. The losses from piling are due to the chicks on the bottom of the pile smothering or "sweating", which saps their vitality. Some poultrymen avoid piling by Installing wire frames. For Instance, a frame two feet wide running the entire length of the north side of the house frequently solves th problem. This frame, covered with wire netting. Is sloped up so that the back "edge' Is about ten inches above the floor. As the chicks crowd toward the corners they are elevated off the floor. This discourages piling, and if the frames ae provided with a couple of strips, they will serve at roosts.

A method of determining sex In chicks, developed to a science in Japan, Is being widely Intro-dace- d Into the United States. Federal Department of Agriculture experts are now teaching members of poultry departments of state universities and colleges the methods employed In Japan. Members of the poultry department at Cornell have already had such instruction and have tried It out In a practical way with much more success on New Tork farms. Male chicks may be separated from the females with 80 to 90 per cent accuracy by those trained In the Japanese method. In the future, farmers may buy only half the usual number of chicks to raise pullets for their laying flocks by purchasing only the females. This will help to reduce feed and equipment costs. The males may be sold to those who specialize In production for the broiler market The technique of determining sex In chicks may be learned In two days to a week, but a thousand chicks at least should be studied to obtain skill and speed.
