to the public best when the composer
himself interprets it. Mr.. Cadman

was natural. Nor does the moral apply only 70
nations under the stress of war. The relation
between labor and food costs is very intimate.
Hubert Eva, Of the Duluth Commercial club, in =
recent address before the National Association OF
Commission Men in Detroit said:
TN the family Of the wage Garner, food takes
. greater percentage Of the family income than
it does in the family Of the average salaried or
business man. Food costs have . greater bear
ing on the wages Of mechanics than on the sal
airy Of the executive. Accordingly the modern
wise man, with capital to invest, considers the
food supply and its effect on wages when seeking
location for his factory
Applying this, Mr.. Eva reasoned that If civic
and trade organizations would devote less time
trying to boom" their communities by artificial
methods and acquiring new factories and other
enterprises by offering bonuses, free taxes and
the like, and would devote their talent and ener-
gies to guaranteeing proper food supply at
reasonable prices, they would be stimulating the
growth OF their community in q substantial and
permanent manner that would never slump.
A city with low cost of living attracts more
people than city with almost any other sort of
an inducenent. It draws and holds good class
OF working people, promotes permanency of
population and reduces dissatisfaction and agi-
tation to minimum
The situation in England, where the govern
ment is beginning to take charge of food sup
plies and food prices in order to stop the explo-
tation Of the working classes and remove their
cause for resentment and indifference furnishes
point to Mr.. Eva's argument-Sioux City
Tribune.

pie are laying taxes upon themselves

They spent a lot of money digging
