There was sort of winter's blast to

pretty good at that!
If every citizen of Brunswick feels

then 1923 is going to sec a whole

A DUTY WE OWE
TO BRUNSWICK
There are several things Bruns
wick nought to do early in 1923 if she
would grow and develop as she should
and as her hope she will.
First, every effort should be made by
the People of the community backed
by every civic organization in Bruns
wick to increase tne commerce of the
port or rather to restore that com
merce which it has lost within the
past few years and which justly and
properly belongs to it.
Did you ever stop to wonder what
has become gf this shipping? If you
know ariythKg about your city you
must know Oiat it has complete! dis
appeared from the Port, without com
mercial reasons. The truth of the
matter is the cost of handling cargoc;;
in Brunswick - today; the pilotage
coats and every other port item is
cheaper than is the rase in seventy
five per cent of the other Ports in
the South Atlantic territory ami in
no case are the charges any higher
than obtains at the other twenty-five
Per cent of the ports! Yet in the
face of these facts, the costwi.se com
merce hia literally frown away.
There is a iea:Ari!
And that reason ought to be
brought out in the open it ought to
be tested by wholesome commercial
tape lines and the whole situation
ought to be remedied in ordoa that
Brunswick might receive the legiti
mate commerce that belongs to her.
it is our confirmed opinion that if
the Board of Trade will open up this
subject without fear or favor, with an
eye .single to the good of Brunswick,
sparing no man nor any combination
of men going after the situation, just
as it would after the individual busi
ness of the members of the organiza
tion that it can right a grievous
wrong- from which Brunswick has
long suffered and better yet, bring
back to this port a vast Portion of
the commerce that has been literally
forced and driven away from it.
We prate üboul our progressive
ness, uc build Jnew schools and
churches, we vote -vast sums to better
streets and belter roads we build our
way to St. Simon at a cost of more
than a third of a million of dollars,'
we make a desperate effort for the
state port aiWk yet we git supinely
down and permit the goose that lays
the golden egg in the port to be mur
dered!
That's the plain truth aboi^Hp*a
No Port pan grow; and
out adequate commerce, and com
merce, if not forcibly divert.A will
seek regular channels and channels
that offer the best advantages for
handling at the most reasonable
terms. There can be no question
About this and yet day after day, a
qftemenelofis volume of business is be
'.ng handled at a higher cost at other
por-ts that belong to Brunswick and
could easily be handled here and at
a saving to the shippers!
We must cure this evil; we must
right this wrong; wo must not permit
any conspiracy toj'ob this popt of the
traffic and the coilmorce that belongs
to it and that’s* exactly what we are
doing, when we fold our hands and
wait for song, one else to come in
and redress our wrongs!
We urge that immediately after
(he holidays, the Board of Trade in
co-operation with other local organi
zations and other ,lrun%viekiaiis take
his matter up and handle it to a con
clusion. If this is done, we here
md now pledge the active support of
this newspaper in the work and iif the
work is properly Prosecuted, without
Fear, without respect to who is found
,n the woodpile, we can safely predict
••exults that will be astounding to the
uninformed People of the city.
The thing has grown to be intolera
ble and we will all be a recreant to a
jolenm duty .if we longer refuse to
assert ourselves!
\t HAT 11'HKKY W \ VIS TO
CANCEL.
The Turks are as eager to cancel
ertain special treaty rights which
hitherto they have been constrained
to grant, as the Washington govern
ment is to see special zones of eco
nomic influence abolished. As ;ar

hate not tended
allay apprehension that if these spe
cial guarantees should be withdrawn
the Christian inhabitants of Turkish
regions would have scant security
either of property or of life. Such is
the belief of those best circumstanced
to judge. At a joint session of the
British, French and Italian Chambers
of Commerce in Constantinople some
weeks ago, resolutions were adopted
urging the Allied governments to
bear in mind that “both the judicial
and commercial rights of foreigners
in Turkey require special protection,
and that if the guarantees should be
abrogated the safety of Christian
residents would be gravely menaced.”
What a commentary on Turkish rule
that only by special arrangement can
it be made compatible with the sim- j
plest rights®of Christian national
dwelling wiliin its shadow!
Kemalist liplomats, however, are
talking b in terms of abrogation
of guarantees; and it is
not unlikely that they may seize upon
the American protest against
zones of economic influence to rein- J
force their Position. But the Laos- 1
anno conference will hardly entertain
such a confusion of ideas.
AN AGE Ol EXTRAVAGANCE
It is now figured out that the peo
ple of the United States spend one
sixth of their annual incomes in
taxes. The federal government r
about half and the other half
for state, county and municipal
eminent*. This accounts for about
-even billion dollars a year an t if i*
is only one-sixth of the earnings of
the people the total earnings would be
forty-two billions. The amount paid'
for government is known and can bo
stated with approximate exactmn .
The totaL incomes of tin* people
incomes non business, from invest
nients. from personal labor can only
he estimated but if the people of the
United States spend forty-two billion
dollars a year they spend (four hun
dred per capita and twelve or fifteen
hundred per worker. Even when we
remember that this counts the cheap
est unskilled labor in greater num
bers than the men who earn more it
seems improbable that the people of
the United States have move than
forty-two billion dollars a year to
spend. If they have less they pay i
in taxes more than a sixth of what
they make.
But this it only a iart of the bur
dens the people bear. The tariff the
Republicans have just enacted will
lake six billion dollars a year from
the people to give to the protected
manqfacturcrs. This would not bo
counted in the taxation for the yov
crntnenl does not get a ion* of it.
The people pay it out without know -
ing it. It goes into the cost of all
the goods they buy that is protected
by the tariff. It increases the cost
of living.
And still this is not all. This six
bill ion represents only manufactur
ers' Prices. The manufacturers sell
to wholesaler,', aud they to retailed.
The profit that these receive mu t
come from the
eases this ( :oln mote than double:
the eot of Lie goods to the consumer.
If the pv. ;it on this six billion dollar:
grows to nine billion and with the
seven billion that the people are pay
ing for taxes carries the total uP to
sixteen billion or more than third of
the tota^income of the people.
A dollar saved is a dollar made.
The repeal of the protective tariff
would save between six and nine bil
lion dollars to the people and there
fore be equivalent to making that
amount. This would be sixty to eigh
ty dollars per capita—from two hun
dred to two hundred and fifty for ev
ery worker . or if we supposed one
worker supported a family of five it
would mean from three hundred t >
four hundred Per family. This would
have government in its various form
with its seven billion dollars to spend
and with proper management and the
strictest possible economy Mi roe hi!
lion could he cut from this
would make a saving that with the
one already referred to as much as
five or six hundred dollars to the fam
ily of live.
We expect three years from now a
considerable degree of relief from, ti e
tariff burdens and possibly the expen
ditures of the United States govern
ment will be reduced. We ought si -
