But what of the poor who
suffer because of speculation
which is nothing but legalzed
gambling?
Now we have started our
gardens. Those of US who have
not yet planted one will do so at
once-for we all want to have
our part in the coming victory
for democracy. We have begun
in the economic use of food. Our
congress has taken up the prob
lem of prohibition in time OF war.
Our law makers ought to go
further and put an end to specu-
lation-and that at once.
Those who have not already
done so should write or telegraph
at once to their senators and
congressman urging them to
support the measure for prohibi-
bition. They should also urge
the congress to put an end to
speculation.

these Improvements absolute

unite urging the citizens that a
few of these improvements be
installed at once.
The present administration is
conscious of the needs of the
city. The mayor realizes his
obligations and responsibilities.
With a full knowledge of the task
before him, he is tackling the
problems in their logical way.

Produce. Conserve. Pro-
hibit. Stop SpeculaI


Anincreased number of gardens
have been the answer to the call
to enlist in the great food drive.
People have realized, as never
before, the necessity OF an in
creased food production in the
United States. They are cons
cious also of the need of economy,
the twin brother to production.
They are determined to do all
they can to do justice to what is
expected of them.
Senators, congressman and the
government are being flooded
with kilograms and letters to
support the measure, pending
before the congress, for an i'm
mediate national prohibition.
We must put an end to specula-
ton as well.
No need OF producing more, no
need of being economical, no
need of prohibition, if the general
public is to be left at the mercy,
of the speculator and if the
general public is to be economical
at the point of starvation.
Here is an authentic news OF
what one speculator did recently.
This man had $1,000. He said
to a friend:
II am going to make $500, 900
with that money in two months. y
!. This speculator was in Baxter
Springs recently. He swore to
his friend that by specializing in
wheat, in less than 60 days, he
cleared $250,OOO.
Can there be any more positive
argument in favor of the prohi-
bition in speculation?
This man is a gambler. Who
knows how long the $3.50, 900
will last at the gambling table?
