A Boston leather merchant in
Washington says that $4,000, 900
worth of leather was shipped to Eng
land last week and that the price of
leather has increased from 70 cents
pound to $I.oS a pound in three
weeks. He predicts $I.25 a pound
within a month and $3.50 a pound
within twelve months. Other leath-
er dealers are predicting $40 as the
price for a pair of shoes this time
next year, and nearly all of them
agree that the exports of leather are
almost entirely responsible for the
price increases.
If Congress decides to place an
embargo on foodstuffs in an effort
to reduce the cost of eating, how can
Congress consistently refuse to place
an embargo on leather to reduce the
cost Of walking?

Wage Increases for All.

Numerous plans are being ad.
vanced for the beterment of the con-
dition of government lemployes
whose salaries have remained at the
same level for score or more years
while living expenses have been
steadily increasing.
Perhaps the best known of these
plans is that embodied in the Nolan
bill, which provides miniumu wage
of S. day for all government en-
ployes. This plan is best known moi
because it is the best plan but be-
cause hearings on the Nalan bill were
held by Congress and the consequent
publicity given by newspapers ia
miliarized all newspaper readers with
the details of the plan.
Another plan is that advanced by
the American Federation of Labor
providing that Congress enact legis-
lation granting an increase in salary
of $500 year to all government en-
ployes now receiving less than $4,000
a year.
A third plan, which has been advo-
Gated in various forms, is that oi
granting horizontal increase in sal
aries to all government employees
that will equal or nearly equal the
increase in the cost of living.
Representative Rodenberg has es.
timated that the cost of living has in
creased s. per cent in the last two
years, and he says that he would moi
hesitate to vote" for a bill granting
an increase of 50 Is per cent in sal,
ary to government employees.
The need for the speedy passage oi
the Nolan bill and the establishment
of S. a day as the minimum wage
paid by the Federal government can
not be disputed. The need for in
creasing by $500 a year the salaries
of all government workers now re-
ceiving less than $4,000 also may be
considered urgent. But if Congress
determines that the time has come to
treat with government employees in a
just and humane manner, the men al
the Capitol should not halt after es-
tablishing the minimum wage and
granting the $500 increase for the
less-than-$2,ooo employees, but
should enact legislation providing for
a horizontal increase in salary for ali
government employees.
It Is only BY such a horizontal in
crease that Congress can fully rem
edy the conditions caused by the in
creased cost Of living.

RICHES AND POVERTY.

Senator Gallinger, the Republican
leader in the Senate, says that the
"misinformation spread in regard to
the Adamson railroad law was re-
sponsible for hundreds of thousands
of votes being cast for President
Wilson" 1t probably also is true
that the information spread in re-
gard to the law was responsible for
hundreds of thousands of votes be-

CONVENIENT KITCHEN
 SAVES MUCH WORK

It is surprising how much even a small change in the arrange ment of the kitchen will lessen the daily work of the ranch home. Often a little intelligent thought, without the expendit- ure of a single dollar, will ac- complish wonders. During the next few weeks when the spirit of spring renovatipg is in the air. bring a little more serious thought to bear upon your kit chen and see if a simple group ing of the equipment will not reduce the time and effort spent on routine duties.
 A kitchen, as a work room should have three centers: There should be the cooking center, the mixing center and the work center, as these are the general occupations of the kitchen. The chief equipment of the cooking center is obviously the stove or range. Around this should be conveniently arranged the uten- sils needed in cooking. The various kettles and saucepans, fry pans, double cookers, forks, knives and spoons used in stirr- ing and trying cooking food, oven cloths, hot pan filters, and all such necessary articles should be within hands reach of the

On the sink, or iu it's cupboard or on a conveniently placed shelf will be arranged the pairing and chopping knives, the material for cleaning pots, pans, woods and metals. dish pans, etc. At the mixing center will be grouped all the utensils required when cooking is to be done. Here will be the mixing bowls, the bread pan and mixer. the egg beaters. mixing spoons, measuring cups, baking pans and dishes, rolling pin and kneading board.
 Having these three centers furnished with all the necessary tools of each kind of work will save not only many steps, but many minutes in a days work. The mixing center should in- clude also some of the staple supplies used in ordinary cooking such as small quantity of flour, sugar, baking powder, spices, etc. A supply sufficient to last a week, if the cupboard is not large enough to contain more, will be big help.
