Living Still at High Level

| Living Dtitt at AtAAh
Washington Post: The middleman,
not the manufacturer, should be the
cynosure of official Observers who
are spying out conspiraeies and ru-
mors of conspiracies against the full
fillment of that which was promised,
prophesied and anticipated big re
duction in the cost of living.
Newspapers throughout the eoun-
try which have been noting the trend
of prices since the passage of the
Underwood tariff generally concur in
the statement that the wholesale
prices of foodstuffs, particularly the
staple articles, are 10 to 10 per cent
lower on the average, and that the re-
adjustment is still in progress, but
that lower prices for the consumer
are successfully fought against by a
spontaneous if not concerted move on
the part of packers and wholesalers
at home ard abroad to maintain job
bers' and retail prices at high level.
A determined effort to head off
any dumping of importations by leas
ing all the warehouse room at the
principal ports and securing first call
on ocean transportation facilities has
been favored by the unforeseen ac-
tion of foreign middlemGn in raising
prices to a point that makes compe-
tition far less keen than had been fig
ured on.
Dealers are convinced that the free
listing of some foodstuffs and heavy
reductions in the tariff on others will
not materially affect retail prices;
but is not that conclusion rather pre-
mature? The new tariff has been in
effect only one month-scarcely long
enough to work down through the
naturally resisting influences en-
countered between wholesale and re-
tail quotations. Doubtless, too, a
vast quantity of the supplies on the
market had been contracted for, ne
cessarily so, under old tariff condi-
tions, and could not be disposed of at
much lower range of values under the
new schedules without meeting with
heavy loss. Having had ample warn
ing, the trade was enabled to safe
guard the markets against violent
fluctuations. And as the only altern-
ative would have been to discontinue
distribution during the period of un-
settlement, it is seen that the traders
chose the lesser evil in the interest of
the consumers even more than them
selves.
AS for conspiracy" to defeat the
tariff, there we have it, disclosed in
it's true proportions. AS we have in
dicated, it is development not on
the program of the supporters of the
bill, and it may be a source of appre-
hension to them and the consumer as
regards promises and performances;
but really there is but slight ground
for any fear that prices can be arti-
ficially maintained indefinitely. There
is limit to the top-heavy scheme
that cannot be escaped. 1t is bound
to collapse of its own weight as soon
as the middleman can work off his
high-priced stock. When that time
comes-look out.
