COMMERCIAL RANK HIGH FOR CALIFORNIA California ranked sixth among all the states in volume of its export trade during the first nine months of 1924, the figures for this state being more than $163,000,000. During the third quarter of the year California held fifth place as compared with other states. Refined petroleum exports led all others. Canned fruits came next. Grain was next in valuation. Then came dried and evaported fruits; wood and paper manufactures; crude petroleum; canned fish and canned milk. The only states which exceed California in value of exports are: New York, Texas, Pennsylvania, Illinois and New Jersey. It would be well to bring these facts to the attention of those persons and those newspapers in the East and Middle West, that have been representing California as a desert and an unproductive wilderness. A state that ranks fifth or sixth among the states of the Union in exports; a state that ranks second in number of automobiles registered; a state that ranks among the first in volume of deposits in savings banks; a state that is among the foremost in per capita wealth; a state whose valuation of property is estimated at $12,000,000—such a state is California. And these facts and figures do not conform with the disparaging tales that have been spread broadcast by malicious enemies of this state.

The autoist who, through reckless driving, strikes and injures a person and then runs away without proffering aid, should be deprived of his driver's license and should be punished as bejits an offense so cowardly. PEACE PROMOTING FOR 1925 LOOMS Several distinct movements and efforts to promote world peace are to be pushed this year. Chief among these is the prospective summoning, by President Coolidge, of another international conference on the reduction and limitation of armaments. Should Mr. Coolidge deem conditions to be auspicious, he will call a conference of this nature before the year ends. There are other proposals, here and abroad, that promise to distinguish 1925 as a year fraught with much good work for the promoting of peace and good will throughout the world. These efforts are to be welcomed. They denote a sincere turning of mankind to the arbitrament of peace for the settlement of international disputes—and a turning away from the arbitrament of the sword. This great movement, in whatever form it may assert itself, should be welcomed and fostered by lovers of peace everywhere. It is not the method that counts for so much, as it is the actuality of achievement. So far as the United States is concerned, is welcomes any practicable plan that really promotes peace. It would co-operate in any movement for the fostering of peace which did not entangle this country in the domestic political affairs of foreign nations.

HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS QUESTION: Mrs. S. T. writes: Would you advise deep breathing and physical culture for one suffering from Tuberculosis, should adopt a building regime, including walking in increased distances careful dieting. As long as there is much coughing up of mucus it advisable to take regular breathing exercises, and of course lying is altogether too violent an exercise for the Tubercular. QUESTION: Mr. J. G. writes: Is there any virtue in canned milk? I drink two cups of hot malted milk, fruits, clabbard milk, ounces of cheese for breakfast. No luncheon. For dinner a dish of lettuce and tomato salad; also cucumbers, with a bag of lemon juice and olive oil, two shredded wheat biscuits cup of hot malted milk. You are doing a good work through HEALTH AND DIET ADVICE column. ANSWER: Canned milk is prepared by a sterilizing process at a high degree of heat is applied to the milk. This process it inferior to milk which has not been subjected to such inclement. I do not recommend it and it should only be used upon occasions, destroying the milk left in can if not all used at same time. It contains too much commercial sugar and is a carrier of disease, especially for children. You are taking too malted milk daily. Milk in this form does not mix with any and is rather a poor food in itself, but if taken, should be alone. QUESTION: Mr. J. T. writes: What foods should one avoid in treatment of Asthma? ANSWER: Avoid foods that produce an excess of stomach and vital gas, such as carbohydrates (sugars and stearches), as are the only foods which can produce enough flatulence to cause an asthmatic attack and must be entirely eliminated.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, 1925 COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying GOLD FLOWING OUT OF AMERICA—San Bernarilino Sun The recent outflow of gold for the U.S. serves as an answer in part to those who have been complaining that the United States has done nothing for the rest of the world. When the Dawes plan was drafted and submitted, a number of prominent financiers gave the warning that along with the restoration of Europe, which this plan would effect, the United States must expect that a corresponding influence would be felt here. That is, to the extent that revival of industry and enterprise in Europe called for active funds there would be a drain upon the capital available in the United States. Undoubtedly the outflow of gold is due largely to the partial restoration of confidence and optimism in Europe, which creates a larger demand for money in European countries. Fortunately this revival of confidence in Europe has been accompanied by events which strengthen confidence in this country as well. The recent election is what we have in mind. It restoration in Europe had been accompanied by a radical victory in America, the outflow of gold from the United States would have been so heavy as to create a panic. Of this there can be no doubt. Money goes where it has the best prospect of earning a good return with safety of the principal. A Democratic or radical victory in the United States would have insured the overthrow of the Republican protective tariff and the admission of foreign products at low rates of duty. That would have meant that the European producers would have a ready and profitable market in the United States and our own industries would languish. There could only be one outcome—American money would rush to European investments in such large amounts as to create a flood of selling of American securities and a corresponding depression of values and prices of both stocks and bonds. That is a statement of economic causes and effects so plain that it needs no argument to support it though the experiences of history might well be cited. Following the Cleveland victory in 1892 there was such a heavy outflow of gold from the United States that the drain on the treasury compelled Cleveland to sell bonds. There is one thing more sensitive than a million dollars—two millions. Men who have money invested in enterprise watch the storm warnings with anxious interest. The cloud on the horizon needs not to be very large before the careful business man hunts a place of safety. The certainty of a Democratic tariff in 1893 caused men to sell holdings in America and buy in Europe where the outlook was better for industry. Of course not everybody sold out, but there was enough selling of industrial holdings to create a depression, from which there was no recovery until there was assurance of a return to Republican policies. The Dawes plan has given a very strong hope and belief that Europe will get back to work on a peace time basis. This does not yet amount to a certainty, and business men are still proceeding with caution in their European ventures, but there is much They were dancing lightly and held her tightly in his manly arms. He closed his eyes for a one and danced here and there ecstasy. She looked up into her face and suddenly his eyes ened. The music stopped. "Come, let's go out on the beach," he muttered thickly. He made a glance at his partner, ever had he seen so ravishing beauty. He could resist no anger. He took her in his arms. "Oh, darling, I love you so. You will be mine." She look-again into his eyes. "I'm not rich like Jawn Brown and I haven't a car, or home, cellar like his, but I do love you and want you terribly." Two soft, snow white arms rched around his neck and two by lips whispered in his ear: "Where is this man Brown." For Sale or Trade: One set of New Year resolutions; slightly ed. Will take cigars.
