BlAMES WIRES FOR
HIGH LIVING COST

In the regulation OF, the telegraph
and telephone is the remedy for the
high cost of living. according to for
mer Congressman Harry B Wolf and
he believes Congress can pass laws
which will bring relief in short or
der. He believes that II an act we're
passed making il a serious offense to
send the prices Of materials necessary
in the household over the wires the
dealers would soon come down to a
better regulation of things. and there
would be no more trouble
"The abuse Of the telegraph and the
telephone is to blame,' he said.
Sounds funny doesn't IL? Nobody
would believe that these two elements
are responsible for hunger and lack OF
clothing. but it's the truth. It's on
the wires that the trouble over the
high cost of living exists
Don't talk 10 me about your Sher-
man laws and other laws. They're all
very fine in their way, but they won't
stop the high cost OF living. It's ur
to Congress- to pass an act making II
a serious offense 10 put the market
prices on the wires. Then the dealer
will sell his stuffs at a reasonable
prohf\Yithout showing up the cosi
every time he reads the ribbon on the
ticker or hears the prices over the
telephone. The little fellow will have
a chance then. So will the womer
folk and the children. syd there vii
be a better regulation all around
don't blame the dealers for wanting
profit. but it ought to be reason
