Father James J. Higgins, pastor Of st.
Rita's Roman Catholic Church. the
Boulevard and Webster avenue. Long
Island City. yesterday issued q state
ment attacking Mayor Mitchell for thu
communication he sent to District At
torney Swami I'm connection with the
recent wire tapping investigation.
The statement accuses the Mayor OF
'%indulging In ~insinuation and flights OF
rhetoric and Imagination and also
takes exception to his statement that
he has long been ware OF a we'll or
ganized and persistent effort to dis
credit the work Of the Commissioned Of
Charities.
1.-THE Mayor should either put UP (evi-
dence),'' says Father Higgins. "or shut
up. He has already brought enough
discredit on this city to last for q gem
Grafton. BY his wonderful accomplish
ments as a wire Taper. an eavesdropper
and a Paul Pry he has won the contempt
Of the thoughtful and is now trying to
befog the issue BY wild statements
which will not bear analysis"
Growing still warmer In his attack
on the Mayor the priest challenges him
to prove his statement that the waits
in the city's child caring institutions
namely treated
Father Higgins's statement also aims
a broadside at Commissioned Kings
bury. 1t says the Commissioner has
neglected his duties to publish false
and lying statements" about the insti-
tutions Investigated by the Strong COM
mission and charges that he has been
led to do this by his mania for pub
ljcity."

LET THERE Be MUCH PUBLIC
ITY.-The department of justice has
inaugurated it's Investigations in the
big cities into the soaring prices of
food, fuel and other necessities,
spurred thereto by the outcry against
the high cost Of living.
Does not the whole, matter resolve
itself into the question: Is the pro-
Queer getting the benefit of the high
prices?
This nation is still largely agricul-
tural. IF the raisers Of grains, cot
ton and wool are making big profits
on their labor the situation has fea-
lures far from calamitous. If these
raisers are paying exorbitant prices
for what they must buy and are not
getting the apparently big profits on
what they raise there is nothing save
calamity in the situation.
In considering the increasing cost
of living we can closely approximate
the increased pay of city workmen.
It is different in respect to the farm
er. To get more pay the latter must
raise more or actually receive more
for what he already raises. At the
same time the>farmer feels the bur
den of the high cost of living as Sc
riously as anybody.
The crux of the federal investiga-
ton is the discovery of the parties
who are finally getting the big prof
its. We think that that win spur
the producers on to applying the

We are planning to put on the market

produce We have already secured
three of the best tire building experts
in the country. We have contracts
