mittee will follow in conducting its
inquiry and giving a number of speciri;
facts which revealed some OF the DIM
culties the committee will have to face,
Senator Lodge said:
THAT combinations to control the
sale Of certain articles have. in some
instances. advanced prices artlhc1aiIy
1 have not personally the least doubt.
and If i am correct the facts which
will be gathered by the committee will
and will show evils and
wrongdoing in certain particular cases
which we ought to be able to reach
IAN example Of such evil is to be found
in the case of meat products and In the
use of cold storage to prevent norman
decline Of prices which your own grand
jury has been Investigating. But many
causes are at work affecting the prices,
and we do not want to jump at conclu-
sions or fancy that We can settle these
questions by a stroke of the pen."
The senator said the committee will
try to determine whether the rise In
over a period of years: whether there
has been advance in world prices, or
whether the advance is confined to the
United States; whether wages. and. II
possible. whether salaries. which are most
difficult to ascertain. have risen with
prices, and to what degree. If any; wheth-
er the tariff has raised prices: whether.
prices in certain cases have been artifi-
ciaily and wrongfully advanced by COM
binations seeking inordinate profits: and
finally make comparison between do
nestle and foreign wages and prices"
To Show No Favoritism.
Whatever the facts show will be stated
by the committee. said the senator, with
out any attempt either to blacken, to
whitewasb or to mislead." He said he
had received during the past few days
one letter blaming the tariff and another
blaming the trusts as the cause of high
prices.
If the question were as easy of solu-
tion,'' he added. las the writer's OF these
two letters think We could deal with II
very quickly
As an illustration of the difficulties
which the committee will have to deal
with. Senator Lodge took three articles
Of wide consumption. all necessaries of
life-raw cotton. refined petroleum and
sugar-and made a comparison of their
changes i'm price and of their relation
to the tariff and trust questions.
Cotton is on the free list and has
been for half century" he said. 1T is
not controlled or handled by any trust.
Refined oil has been practically and il
now absolutely on the free list. and it's
sale is almost entirely controlled by the
strongest, best organized and most re-
lentless trust or combination of which We
have knowledge. Sugar is i'll the hands Of

Truth About Prices.

Now. let us consider the facts in re-
gard to the prices OF tiiebe articles. TAX
ing 100 as the basis In, 1859. the advance
in cotton has ranged from 81 to "a
points. It was 90 points higher in 1905
than in 1899. and it is still higher at the
present time. Petroleum. starting with
100 as the basis in 1899, has advanced
3S points in ten years; sugar during the
same time has declined 10 points.
IT make no comment on these facts. and
offer no opinion. 1 leave 1t to you to point
out the cause of the movement in prices
in these three articles which will meet
every case.
This is not question nor is II a time
for reckless haste or violence said Sen
ator Lodge in conclusion. But 1t is
time and an occasion for firmness and
for justice for a determination to extir-
pate with relentless hand the evils
born OF greed and unscrupulousness
which tamper with the food supply of the
people or with the necessaries of life II
laws can be framed to do it,

a trust or combination and is highly pro-
tected. Neither the trusts nor the tariff
are present in the case of cotton. The
trust is present and the tariff absent IN
the case Of oil. Both the tariff and the
trust control are present in the case of
sugar.
