Why the High Prices?

The administration seems to be
 considerably worried because the heralded lowering of the cost of liv- ing has failed to materialize with the placing in operation of the slashed tariff. Foodstuffs of all kinds have been placed on the free list, and still the prices do not come down. 1t has resulted in the people who voted the Democratic ticket, with the prom ise that living costs would be reduc- ed, feeling that they have been fool ed somewhere So totally has the slashed tariff failed to lessen the cost of living the administration has or dered an investigation. The attorney general is going to find out all about the reason for the actual upward trend of costs. or says that he is. Let us hope. If the cause is the conspiracy of middlemen. there is q way to get at them-Ex.
