One hundred million dollars will be spent between now and 1935. It is interesting to note that but 15 years have passed since the first call was completed between New York and San Francisco. Now every part of the country can not only talk with every part, but it is possible to telephone from the United States to most every important European center. Long distance telephony is revolutionizing international social and Industrial contracts. fed - - Baa Scout Siple, of Erl.

It believes that it is the business of government to regulate the person- al conduct of the citizen and the conduct of his business. Government ownership advocates and reformers, socialists and believers in a Btrongly centralized federal government are all followers of the paternalistic school of thought. They would subject individual initiative and enterprise to the mercy of the politician. They would restrict liberty of bespeech and action until' the word ' came meaningless. Russia is an example of advanced paternalism. The government supplies the needs of the people and regulates, their conduct. . It takes' their produce. It forces every person, no matter what his abilities, down to a herd level. No American wants that. But wo are, slowly, going toward it. The politician who would burden the individual and industry with a multitude of paternalistic laws, is, unconsciously or otherwise, striking at the roots of free government. .

In 1929 the United States produced 1,015,000 tons of copper and consumed approximately 1,078,000 tons, a nice balance. But we imported 487,-15- 6 tons from countries where production costs are very low because of cheap labor which lives under conditions that would not be tolerated in the United States.
