THE FIGHT FOR FOOD IN THIS COUNTRY
(New York American.l
Of the facts there can he no doubt.
As every housewife knows, prices have
gone up abnormally within the past
few days. As every economist knows.
Ihtrc Is no Justification whatever for
jruch an advance.
Warehouses are strained with food
stuffs which, owing to our lack of
ships, cannot be sent to Europe. Beef
Mci.'fi cannot reach foreign markets.
Veltlx r can provision Jobbers or the
•Bfort.rs of flour.
The only thing for the investigators
to get Is specific evidence of a con
spiracy, or of Individual schemes to
make an opportunity of the necessity
of the people.
This should he easy. The investiga
tion should go Into low places as
well as high.
If the butcher, the baker, the grocer,
the delicatessen man Is arbitrarily
raising prices on the pretext that war
mokes it necessary, these gentlemen
*h"Uid he put under restraint.
There Is abundant opportunity 1n
America for honest business. There
should he no opportunity for extor
tion.
It is to be hoped that within a few
days the gentlemen who have been
seeking to enrich themselves by ad
vancing foodstuffs to starvation prlco.t
Will cither be frightened Into hon
esty, or on their way to the nearest
c r. mitral court.
A Crime Against the People of This
Country.
(New York World.)
The president's statement that the
Increase In most food prices Is unwar
ranted ts very conservative. It is ah >-
ge't.er artificial and arbitrary. The.
precision with which it was brought
about from coast to coast proves that
combination exists and that It Is 11-
rected by master minds. Was the

THE CONCEITED DONKEY.
A donkey mid a colt were alone In
the stable one day The donkey
thought himself very handeotne and
began to latiKh at the long-legged lit*
tie colt.
"O, dear.” aald the donkey, “I wish
you could aee your»elf, you are ao fun
ny with your long legs and little thin
body."
“1 did not know that I wan no queer
looking.” eald the colt "I know I tun
tall and no doubt 1 shall grow taller,
but my mother in tall and she doea not
look queer Why do you not laugh ul
her?"
“Your mother hn» outgrown her
awkward Hit*,' replied the donkey,
"but you are n very homely lmie crea
ture."
The colt »«f alien! for a while, but
he was gating Intently at the donkey.

THE WAYS OF THRIFT
(Copyrighted, 1»14, American Society
tor Thrift.)
HAPPINESS IS THRIFT.
In the laundry, kitchen, dining-room
and aewing-room thrift la appearing
In a truer and more attractive aspect
than ever before. Intelligent man
agement and avlentific principles are
found to have a place In the machin
ery of housekeeping The gulf be
tween chemistry. phVslrs and mechan
ics has been crossed by domestic sci
ence and found most practical to the
Up-to-date woman.
According to the Mr# I. A John
oon. president of a "Homemakers'
Supply Club" In Chicago, the wife and
neither who la thrifty enough to keep
up and take advantage of the pro
gress of the times will no longer be
a tired. worn-out, narrow-minded
woman at the age of forty with
"never-done housework." A thorough
study of the needs of the housekeep
er have made It possible for the club
to show women how to clean all the
■tlver In the house In a few minutes'
time Instead of spending half a day
on It; how to Iron with an electric
Iron and woven-wire, ventilated iron
ing board while seated, thereby saving
time, lat-or and money; how to save
herself and other members of the
family the struggle of removing or ad
justing the lied springs which have al
ways been made too heavy and unman
ageable for a woman to handle; what
kind of olive oil to buy which con
tains the nutrition snd flsvor with
out the fraud of substitutes, how to
take the tops off ths preserve )sra
without the usual strain of wrlat and
tamper, how to pack and ship the
of food In the country to mark up ev
erything elee In his possession?
In the case of meats, flour and su
gar, Federal authority may easily be
invoked, whereas In the rases of lo
cal dealers state authority should be
adequate, Under the commerce clause
of the constitution the nation is able
to meet this Issue so far as It relates
to interstate transactions. Under the
police power of the states, cities an t
towns, as Mayor Mitchel w r ell says,
may challenge It with equal courage.
These are sovereign powers. They rule
the W'orld, In republics as well as In
monarchies.
Those who corner food In the na
tions of Europe that are at war are
treated as public enemies. In Ger
many, Austria and Russia, In extrema
cases, government has selxed all sup
plies, Just as T. this country a thous
and times government has appropri
ated lands by right of eminent do
main. Even In England, government
1s fixing the price o{ food. A nation
at war that can he starved at home
by speculators Is defeated before It
lights.
Our gamblers and extortioners are
a'temptlhg to apply to a nation at
peace the oppressions which nations
In conflict will not endure. The crime
which they commit here Is worse than
that which has appeared abroad, for
In this country It Is wholly specula
tive, whereas In Europe it Is to a large
extent economic. This country Is
glutted with food. Europe is not. If,
necessary to promote the welfare of
our people, we tnay and should forbll '
the exports upqn the promise of which
the Impending robbery Is based.
I'olltcal economy is a dismal science 1
which was designed to Intensify arid •
excuse such conditions as now pre- ,
vail. 80 - called natural laws, such as I
that of supply and demand, have al- j
ways been urged upon those who lan- |
gulsh and rile hk a sufficient excuse
for their wretchedness. The first law
at you,” he said at last, "I are that
you are not ho handsome, that you cun
afford to laugh or make fun of me.”
The donkey stood up very straight,
lifted hla head and pricked up his
earn.
"I have heard many times what a
fine looking animal I am/’ he said,
"and no douht I look particularly
handsome to you, who are ho plain and
awkward.”
"If you had not hurt my feellngH by
making fun of me." said the colt, ”1
never would have thought of being so
rude, but ns you have exprenHed your
self ho freely, 1 will tell you that any
one who said you were a fine-looking
fellow "hh making fun of you. Your
head 1h badly shaped, your ears are too
l»*ng, they look like n windmill, and
your tall looks like piece of old rope
fringed out at the end. Your mouth la
so large that when you laugh one
fears you will split your head in half,
and altogether you ceTtalnly are not a
beauty.”
Hut the donkey was too conceited to
believe that. “You are certainly mis
taken." he said. 1 have always been
« ailed handsome, and as for being
stupid that cannot be true, for 1 am
always consulted upon all questions
by the other animals.”
“That all may be true,” said the colt,
"for the other animals are kind and
considerate of your feelings, and had
you been the same you might never
have heard how ridiculous you really
are. for 1 had never thought about
your looks until you made fun of me.”
The donkey walked away with rather
a crestfallen air.
Whll# he did not really believe that
he looked as the colt had said, it wor
ried him to know that any one thought
he was not handsome.
Hy our outspoken Judgment of the
faults of others, we often call atten
tion to our own defect*.

What it the Government Going to Do
About It?
It has pleased the good I-ord to pre
sent us this year with a record-break
ing crop. No later than two weeks
I ago the housewife rejoiced in the hope
of soon seeing her daily loaf of bread
increase In size. But things appear
j today to be quite different, as the
trusts, the speculators, the sharks and
] \umpires of all denominations have
j decided instead to fill their pockets
1 at the expense of the whole nation;
they call this business.
Besides this, thanks to the war and
the kaiser of Germany, we are told
that soon hundreds of thousands of
workers wMI find themselves out of
employment. Is not this a fine pros
pect for the future? What Is the
government going to do? What Is the
press going to do? What are the
people going to do? Fold their arms
1 and leave the solution of this little
problem to the care of the housewife
j and her league?
Elour Is reported as already 20 per
cent higher. Meat has been advance!
rapidly. An almost prohibitive price
for coal Is threatened. Necessaries or
every kind are showing excessive rises
| In price.
Meanwhile the congress Is being
j urged to pass legislation that will pro
i vide dealers and speculators an easy,
| safe means of export transportation
i hy enabling the mto procure the reg
istration of foreign vessels under the
1 American flag
| At home we are to be bled unscru
j pulously even for home-grown sup-
I piles thnt are abundant, and as a
! reason for the extortion we are to be
' told that the foreign demand raise)
prices.
At the best, our working people, or
small-salaried people, and indeed
practically all our folk whose income
Is adequate only for the most eco
nomical living, will suffer from the
war. In this critical period we ought
not to permit speculation and private
gain to control our prices and our
supply of necessaries.
No exportation of necessaries should
be tolerated while our home markets
can consume them. We shall be forced
to puy ''war prices” for many things;
let us not he forced to pay them when
| they are merely speculative and ex
] lortionate.
"AH of our laws against trusts, un
fair business practices, monopolies,
I conspiracies and combinations are mo
1 much blank paper If in a time like
I this, when American granaries are
bursting and there 1s no immediate
j prospect of un outlet elsewhere, food
can bo cornered ns it Is today.”
Now, in my opinion, President Wil
son should appoint a commission of.
j sa;>, two or three experts to handle
■ this Important question at once, or
j the department of Justice should act
at once. These great food trusts
should not be allowed to send out of
this country on contract to the vari
ous European countries at war these
necessities of life and cause the prices
to soar beyond the reach of the Amer
ican people—that is, the middle and
poorer classes.
If those trusts, who care nothing
for the people of this country who
I have made them multl-mllllonalres,
are not stopped at the beginning of
the threatened tremendous war In Eu
rope there Is no telling the extent of
extortion they will endeavor to per
petrate upon their home cuatomera.

HOW DR. BUMBLE BEE PLAYED
A JOKE.
(By Virginia Vale).
Once upon a time the little red
squirrel jerew so fat that hts
friend. Dr. Bumble-bee told him
he would get Into trouble If he
didn't stop eating so much and
lake more exercise.
The squirrel was lazy and
didn't want to run or hunt for
food when he could get lt with
out doing so.
One day after he had eaten so
many nuts he could hardly move
Dr. Huirble-bce said: "1 think If
1 gave you a good sting It would
make you thinner and 1 will do It
right now, for I want to help
you.”
Now the squirrel knew that Dr.
Bumble-bee's sting hurt and he
dtd not want to feel lt so he
started to run and the hee after
him. On they ran past the tree
that mss his home and out Into
the meadow but ns fast as he ran
he couldn't get rid of the bee
Mhlch Mas always Just behind
him.
At last he couldn't run any
more and he stopped under a
tree .too tired and out of breath
to move and every minute ex
pecting s sharp sting In his side.
Now, of course. Dr. Bumble-bee
didn't mean to hurt hla friend,
but thought that a fine way of
getting him to run so he said:
"1 guess 1 won't sting you this
morning for you have run a long
May and you m 111 now have to
walk back to your home "
“Oh, l think I will rest before
1 go back." said the squirrel, but
Dr. Bumble-bee said: "No, you
must go right home and I will go
with you."
You see he was afraid the
squirrel would rest on the May.
The next day he made the squir
rel run a long way, and the next
and the next until the squirrel be
gan to enjoy his morning run.
Then Dr Bumble-bee told him
the Joke he had played on him
and asked if he would keep It up.
The squirrel promised and :f you
go to the forest where he lives
you will see him every morning
running ths meadow back and
forth.
