THE COST OF KILLING.

The people Of the warning nations
pay the price OF belligerency with
every meal they cot. Over In Europe
the cost Of living Is ascending by
leaps and bounds as the price Of
killing is met. In London, for in
stance. beefsteak now costs ~ cents
per pound. but fewer Of them fnd
their way upon the table. Eggs are
seven cents each. and the ban Is put
upon their use even at that. The
people were even asked to forego
their use on Easter Sunday that the
supply for the army might not be
shortened. And the English meet
these conditions in good nature. for
any sacrifice win be made that lends
support to the cause Of the allied
armies. Whatever suggestion Is made
In the interest Of the campaign
against the central powers is follow

HOW OTHERS VIEW
DICKERSON STEAL
(SDrin gfeld SUM-

The kick. OF the stogies is not re-
SarGed as serious in this neck OF the

appealed TO the national baseball COM,
mission. Business Manager Pop
Schriver wired the other owners want
ing a meeting called TO be held in Day
ton Tuesday morning. President Gus
Sun received Il wire. but unless y; ".
Dickerson issues call it Is not likely
there will be many in attendance.
Manager Harry Smith admits there
were II players on the Wheeling
bench ut the time South lend pro
tested. The only. bad feature
about the matter is that DickerSon
waited so long in making his decision.
These defending the president IN
his action declare that Dickerson
thought that perhaps the clubs would
not be contestants for the ',lors vi
the league and that L decision in that
case would not be necessary. they
cite, for example, the suit OF IN Fed
