Regulating War Prices

The nrices for necessities of life in the Unit
ed States are steadily mounting upward. This
is due to realization that next year may see no
.crops planted in stricken Europe and therefore,
under existing conditions, there will be an un-
precedented foreign demand for American food
stuffs.
In other words, Europe, short of food sup
plies herself, will shorten the food supplies of
millions of American people by bidding up
prices. These Americans, handicapped by sta
tionary incomes or no incomes at all due to unem-
poyment. in the face of much higher food
prices, will be unable to buy as much as they
could before war prices prevailed.
The class of Americans that will be most
affected adversely by this condition IS composed
of the wage earners, salaried workers and wld-
ows, orphans and retired business men living on
small fixed incomes from invested savings
These people comprising large majority OF our
population are the ones that must perforce cut
down on their consumption Of necessities OF llte
Some will even be compelled to undergo semi
starvation. Many out of work due to disturbed
industrial conditions as result of this devastat-
ing war will face actual starvation.
The class that will benefit by this condition
is composed of the farmers and the spectators
in necessities of life This class by reason of the
war stands to gain enormously. But their gains
over and above normal return will represent
blood money, wrung from the necessities OF their
suffering and starving fellow citizens.
Europe is doing for her suffering citizens
what this country should do for those of our
citizens who are threatened with suffering The
continental nations have established reasonable
maximum prices for commodities. Anyone SELL
ing above these prices or boarding supplies is
severely punished by the respective govern
ments.
There is no reason why our government
should not extend the same protection to our
citizens. Reasonable maximum prices could be
established that would be fair to consuming and
producing classes alike. Of course all foreign
buying from individual Americans on this basis
would have to be prohibited What our govern
ment should aim to do is to guarantee every
American as many of the necessities of life this
year and next as were procurable last year.
After American necessities are taken care of
at the reasonable maximum prices, the surplus
remaining should be taken over by our govern
ment at the maximum prices and sold by it to
the various foreign nations at as much more
than the maximum prices as could be obtained
In this way the threatened shortage of govern
ment revenue due to the loss of customs duties
on imports stopped by the war could more than
be made up.
In fact the government should be able to raise
much more revenue than it needs ordinarily
that it could undertake the building of public
works on a scale large enough to give work tc
the many people who, on account of the effect
to this country's industries of the European war
will be temporarily out of employment AS E
