Dallas, Texas; one on Japan. China
and Africa, by the Rev. John Roach
Straton. Of Baltimore. and n on
Field Forces and Finances, by the
Rev. H. w. kable, Of Stanton, Va.
These reports presented h work
and needs OF the board to further
enlarge its work. The convention
voted to request the churches to con-
tribute 100000 to the Foreign Mis-
ston Board next year. Mr.. L. II. Ell
let. Of Richmond, Va. called attention
to the fact that the board paid more
than $4,000 interest on borrowed
money last year because OF the tardi-
ness Of mission t~reaSUrers IN forward
ing money and the convention adOpt
ca a resolution requesting the charges
to make monthly rernittances to the
board.
The UNCONVENTIONAL newspapers
were given an inning at the afternoon
%azsion. Rev. Hight {. Moore. or
Raleigh, N. c., cad a paper on the
Mission Of the Baptist Newspaper, and
the Rev. George W. Truett, ID. /, OF
Dallas, Texas, made an address on the
value Of such papers to the denomi-
nation. He accused the Baptists OF
the South Of not adequately support

expressed the belief that mission
boards. denominational colleges and
other agencies could max no more
profitable investment than to appro-
pirate d portion Of their expense funds
TO the support Of the papers from
which they derive SO much help.

Richmond College. Va" read a re-
port on the Baptist Colleges in the

teat, president of Wake Forest Col
IeGe, n. G. addressed the convention
upon the denonninational college as an
asset to the churches.
Quite a ripple of excitement was
provoked by u motion to repeal that
section Of the bylaws of the conven-
ton which forbids applause on the
floor. First. it appeared that the
notion was lost. a division was call
ed for, aud it appeared that the mo-
ton prevailed by a majority Of two
votes, in a voting strength Of 1854.

HIGH PRICES ARE UNIVERSAL
Proof That They Are Universal and
Beyond the Reach Of Any
Government

In free trade England there is
crisis in the boot and shoe industry
because of the sharp advance in the
cost of leather. Manufacturers draw
upon many countries for their raw ma
terial. obtaining hides from Argentine,
Australia and South Africa as well as
North America and Europe, but they
find themselves unable to buy leather
except at so large an advance that 1t
must force higher prices for shoes
so much higher that consumers pro-
test bitterly.
In Vera Cruz, the best known port of
Mexico. the cost Of living has about
doubled, according to unquestioned au-
thorities, in the last ten years or so.
and the present retail price of food
staples such as -four. meats, tea, po-
tatoes, etc. is so high that the condi-
tion of the poor is desperately bad.
All that they can hope to do is to sus-
tain life by eating only beans and
corn meal and the cheapest and poor
est vegetables.
Even in Siberia, one of the regions
least populated and most opulent in
natural resources, there is a marked
rise in values, all the way from land
to meat. and the same change is noted
in Argentine, where cattle are raised
by millions and the 100000 inha5i-
tants. more or less, have a territory
one-third as large as the United States
to spread themselves over and use as
prodigally as they desire
Such illustrations of worldwide
movement could be multiplied without
limit. They show plainly that some.
at least, of the causes of high prices
are common to many lands and are
probably beyond the reach of any gov
ernment. Others, however, may be
both local and illegal, and in that case
they must be dealt with all the more
vigorously because of the burdens
which cannot be lifted by the power
of the state.
