of even imagining what the ancient
idealization Of poverty could have
meantime liberation from material
attachments: the unbribed soul; the
manlier Indifference; the paying. our
way by what we are or do and not by
what we have. the right to fling away

THE United States government
should make a thorough investigation
into the present cost of the necessities
of life If any organization has secur-
ed corner on the food supplies, some
thing should be done at once to protect
the people of this country. No matter
what preteXt is given, certain it is that
war contracts should not be made the
reason for high prices. Food stufTs,
enough to supply the American people,
should be sold at reasonable profit
and then let the surplus go to the for
eign countries One would actually
think by the prices charged that the
European war was right at our own
doors. Feed America first and at rea-
sonable prices, should become a nation
