DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU?
A LittU ot Everything And Not Mack of Anything#
* By HUGH BOWB *7
My attention was attracted
to an article which appeared
in the Sunday American re
cently occupying nearly two
iSm,hM<£tL of special dispatches are also reserved. _

r* ■ THE FLEXIBLE TARIFF MYTH
'President Harding handles the flexible provision of
the Fotdney-McCumber Tariff Act gingerly. Before
exercising the power conferred uponi lt'tnby confess
to reduce any rate, he declares there mu^t be very
pronounced reasons for it and “only on the most
striking evidence of the necessity for such a change
in rated-” would he be justified in revision cither vut>.
This sounds like the old familiar stand-pat talk
ThereImust be no tariff tinkering; let it stand, the
Fordney-McCumber tariff rates are sacred and should
be maintained. If many little fellows are squeezed
let thqm squeal like a pig under a pte. So long as
the big ones are satisfied, everything is lovely and
the gotwe hangs high. . ' . , . . „
t • But if the flexible provisions specially invented by
F Messri. Fordjiey and McCumbcr are not for the pur
pose <ff preventing 1 pyramiding of prices, what are
they fir? According to surface indications, they are •
intended to work both ways, cither for the protection
of the producer or the consumers, but practically ^hey
do not: work at all. For example, if the price of
r.ugar.iwholesale and retail, goe3 on the rampage and
soars beyond all reason, boosted by speculators and
profiteers no move is to be made towards lowering
the tariff. . ,
, If the price of sugar is jumped 90 per cent in.less
than three months, the consumers can expect no relief
from President Harding through the reduettoii of the ,
tariff.? (It’s big pig,' little pig, root hog or die. The
president alone ic judge of the “very pronounced rea
sons” and “the most striking evidence of the neces
sity” far any change in the tariff rates. So, the
boasted tariff flexibility, in spite of all that has been
. said ahd tjpne with it, is in fact a mere myth. Flex
ibility's as dead ar a door nail. There’s nothing to it.
! SUPPORT THE CURB MARKET

* Saturday. Lart week the trading around the
rket place was brisk and n lot'of-Athens’ hoifte-.i.

if: tihe market is to be a complete success it must
fHe backing, support and trade of .ell the house-,
i|qf the city.
'“ project was put in operation,here to-affo«yl,a .
market for farm produce and to (stimulate b'uy-
Ja systematic system of marketing. It ha's al-
Ibeen demonstrated that the man who brings ,
bek here ih the best marketable shape, that is
vwell packed and displayed, is the one who sells
_ 1 if thejf i
themselves ana benefit by the experiences they
! from market day to market day. By warchfng
iyers they'can determine what io.wanted'end
shape it sells best.
iast two Saturdays a few peddlers have disre-
_ the market regulations and are said to be
ig.certain streets offering their truck for sale
[ market hours without license. This should be
ed carefully and the market given all the pro-
that was promised it. . , . ,

EXPORTING .MERICAN GOLD
Frederick C. Goodenough, thq English banker,
,lly favors' American'exportation-of gold. But
ason ho giyes fpr'thc desire that he harbors is
r interesting! ' Mr'. Goodencugh told New -York
that the [Uidted States would be taking the
cut to the stabilization of the’world's affairs
porting gold and investing the yellow metal in
properties .
Perhaps Mr. Goodenough purposely ignored the
rat natural laws are oven now to bring about
ry results he pointed out, in part ot least, al-
th? incentive Is individual inclination rather
cgaitl for European financial requirements.

‘irpose of defr-ylng the expense? of \merican
abroad.
re were said (0 have been no less than . 8,500
igers on nine lines leaving the port of New
last Saturday. There passengers took with
many nvlllttnr. Before the summer rus’ of
ean traveller? is over the amount is likely to
into hundreds of millions. What this stream
mdney pouring into Europe means to the financial
tfon can readily be understood. Americans are
for being the best spenders in the world. There
enty over there anxious to entertain the Ameri-
R-times ard willing to shell out. And as for the
n hosts, there can be no discount upon their
to negotiate for the full amount of the enter-
it furnished.

An opportnity to become sc*
quainted with some of the more
important and most charming wo
men of the country and an oppor
tunity to tell them of some of the
more conspicuous needs of the
University of Georgia were what
’ the biggest aitd
thing about the
meetings of the mid-biennial of
the General Federation of Women’s
Clubs which she attended, saw
Si.ss Dorothy Moran a' 'fee Uni
versity of Georgia.
"It was absolutely the biggest
thing I have ever been to," she
continued- “1 met so many Won
derful women and heard so many
inspiring addresses I hardly know
what wad the mqst important
There was so much of it, so much
going on, I Went from one thing tc
another.' There were luncheons
and dinners and teas and a barbe
cue and everywhere I met all those
ii ieresting women and 1 talked to
them whenever I had a chance.
“Well I just talked to .whoever
would listen about the needs of the
University of Georgia and espec
ially the needs of the co-educn-
tlonal students of the University,
1 told them how we needed a wo-
n in’s dormitory near the campus.
I told them how we had to walk
back and' forth in all kinds of
weather from the Agricultural
College. And I told them that the
present woman’s dormitory could
not begin to accommodate tho stu
dents.
“They were all very gracious
and promised to do what they
could. The matter would be look
ed into immediately they assured
me. The first thing necessary was
to get a bill framed up .and find,
s.meone to introduce it into thq
coming legislature. Of course
everybody realises that it (a, *|l
got to be worked out and the
whole thing gotten into shape,
"When I met Mia Bessie Kemp-
ton, representative from, Fulton
county,” said Miss iMorah, “she
said to me. ‘O I know what jlou
want, you want money for the
University.’ I guess they aU 'know
what we want, and they all agree
that nothing could be worthier of
the effort necessary to obtain our
oMect.”., • f
Bulletins ntresaing the needs of
thethe University will be sent to
prominent women ot Georgia par
ticularly in Atlanta so that thsy
will be thoroughly Informed, and
know how to proceed In, the mat
ter of, making campaign plans:
Mist Moran aid she could enttm-
erate hundreds of- prominent >nd
c'- arming women who nuhe met at
tin. biennian but their names and
their addresses, and deliberations
have already been given In full in
the papers.
As a delegate from the Pioneers
of the University of Georgia Miss
Moran’s mission, wss, so to spesk,
a pathfinding one. When the Pio
neers and others of slpiilar cour
age have biased a way others will
not fail to fall in. It Is predteteo
