BULL" - A little magazine has
been started lately in New York
which carries the name of Bull" 1t
asks that readers send it any fine
samples of "buIl." Here's the best
bet for today from Chicago. This is
from the official press dope of the As
sociation of Commerce and printed
in Chicago daily papers, who admit
they are pretty good:
"The large circulation and the high
standard of Chicago's newspapers
testify to enlightened, as well as
good citizenship, for the public press
is the best mirror of the spirit and
the tendencies of a city"

facture, FROM THE AIR, enough nj
trogen to double the productivity of
our farms. Z
This water power belongs to the
government all the people. The J
air, from which the nitrogen is gath
cred, is also - as yet - public prop
erty.
Our constitution authorizes con- /
gress to pass laws to provide for
the common defense and promote
the general welfare" To eyes not /
astigmatized by gazing too long
through the lenses of private greed,
this proposal is simply one to pro-
mote the general welfare. i
The senate provision for a govern
ment nitrogen plant has yet to be
passed by the house.
Private interests are seeking con- s
troll of our water powers for them
selves.

PUBLIC WASTE VS.. PRIVATE
PROFIT.-Three million bushels of
wheat and millions of bushels of
other grains and foodstuffs, and
thousands of bales of cotton flow to
waste daily over our great waterfalls.
Is. Uncle Sam going to stop this
wasteage at the cost of salving it, so
his people may have more and cheap
er food and clothing, or is he going
to let the job to private capitalists so
they may exploit the public and reap
rich profits?
This is the real question involved
in the fight now on in congress for
government plants to manufacture
air nitrogen.
The senate, as part Of the army
bill, has approved an appropriation
of $15,0OO,0OO for starting Uncle
Sam in the business of gathering nj
trogen from the air.
This plant is expected to have a
capacity of 10000 tons yearly. In
case of war this entire amount might
be needed for the manufacture of
ammunition and high explosives. In
peace times 10000 tons would be
available to fertilizer manufacturers
at cost.
This proposed government plant
should be just the beginning of I'm
Gle Sans work of solving the cost
of living by using the public re-
sources for the benefit of the public. !
The horsepower going to waste at
half a dozen water power sites, ex-
perts testify, is sufficient to manu-
