GOVERNMENT RE GlJLAT|ON
 AS MEASURE 1T WARTIME

(By Senator Francis G. NewIands)
 Our war conditions now require su- preme collective effort, and that, car- ried out to the full extent, means So- cialism. We have found that in war the law of supply and demand breaks down because extraordinary demands are precipitated upon moderate sup ply. Prices soar and that means dis turbances and readjustments for every kind of labor and industry and for commerce.
 We could not wait long enough upon entering the war, for the usual effect of increased demand, namely, increased production, to restore the price levels. Therefore, in the stress of war, it be- comes necessary to take over plants or control prices, unless the desired re- suits of reasonable prices can be ob- tained by understanding with the pro- ducers. When 1 say reasonable prices l mean reasonable prices not only for the government but for the public. It is not to be imagined that country can successfully prosecute a war, even though it obtains it's supplies at req sonable prices, if its industrial forces at home are upset by strikes and lockouts. Increasing prices invariably mean d ferment of labor troubles which, in turn, materially impair the military strength of a nation at the front The laborer is bound to com pare the amount which dollar of his wages will buy today with what it would buy a month and a year ago. He has to do this; he is compelled to contend all the time for the mainten- ance of the power of his wages. If things go up in price his WRgeS must go up, too.
 We must avoid such a race between prices and wages by keeping prices down, not only for the sake of con- serving all our present industrial strength for war purposes, but for the sake of the economic welfare of the United States after the war in it's in ternational trade relations. If we do not avoid such a race between prices and wages both will increase steadily till the end of the war, when our wage level will be above that of the other belligerent countries in which there has been better control And the cOun- try with the highest wage level will then be at a disadvantage It's cost of production of all commodities will be above that of the other countries, which will put it out of the running in any competition in it's own mar kets and in the markets of the world. And the high wage level will also bring an influx of labor which the country will not be able to handle
 Every consideration, therefore, de- mands that a proper price level shall be maintained by government regula = tion. and this, of course, involves a form of state socialism.
 Thus far the administration has sought by mobilizing it's industries and by inviting their chiefs to become members of the great CO., ordinating committees in connection with the Ma tional Council of Defense and the Ad- visory Commission to conscript by a friendly process these interests in the
Arizona republican., 1917-10-02

service of the republic. This method has succeeded so far as some of the products are concerned. For example, 1t Is perfectly clea rthat the principles of competitive bidding would not have been applicable to the construction of the sixteen great army cantonments, each of them intended to be city of 10000 soldiers. The risk in market of rising prices for construction ma terial would have been too great for the contracting builders to name req sonable terms for their work But the mobilzed lumber interests rose to the emergency periodically, took sur vey of the whole lumber situation of the country, and then voluntarily named the reasonable price of from $20 to $23 a thousand feet, figure very slightly above normal. The re- suit is that the work on the canton ments has gone on with marvellous rapidity and certainty.
 The coal and iron interests have not responded so periodically. The pre- war price of coal at the mines was from S1.10 to $1.40 ton. Since then mirers' wages have been somewhat in- creased. enough perhaps to add 20 cents to the cost of production. The cost Of materials used in the mines has increased somewhat and higher coal prices were to be expected natur- ally. But the extraordinary demands on normal supply, accompanied by car shortage which impeded distribution and deliveries, forced the price of a part of the coal supply, uncontracted for, up to S and SC a ton at the mines. The factories became alarmed and bid acutely against each other Then the coal operators met at the suggestion of the National Council of Defense and they seemed to think that they were doing patriotic thing in naming s3 as a fair price at the mouth of the mine
 If they had been wise, if their mo- tion of patriotism had coincided more closely with public opinion, they would have named a price nearer S2 than S3. Such q price would have made ample allowance for increased cost and eX- traordinary conditions and afforded a liberal profit The price is not sat isfactory to the war and navy depart ments and to the public and it prob ably will be necessary to cOmmandeef the mines or their output, or, through both national and state agencies, to fix the price of coal in both interstate and state commerce, thus placing the mines m the group ol puDIlcly eSuldteu III dustries along with the railroads, the telephone and telegraph and the gas and electric light and power com panies In any event the country has been forced a step nearer to socialism } by the action of the coal men and we are bound to come out of the war with a great many more industries publicly regulated than we had in the begin hing.
 The matter Of communicating opens up Q new question. Before the war, ii you had asked me whether the gov ernment had power to commanded

 Mir. Soules psychology class has proven to be very popular this year. The class meets the sixth hour and has 34 students enrolled, averaging four students over the standard roll call. The course of study has been so prepared as to interest the students in daily life. Great credit should be given to MT. Soule for this method he has adopted, as it gives the students a desire to develop their mental faculties and to apply them to the affairs of everyd day life. Along with this course he has prepared some single tests and experiments.
 Miss Andrews our new expression teacher will devote most of her time in expression by giving one hour a week to all Sophomore, Junior and English pupils. She takes one of the class periods from each English teach CT. She started this work yesterday by some introductory drills in breath ing, standing and walking. Our pupils are getting some great work this year. All boys must take military training and all girls physical training. Then all of the three upper classes will get vocal expression as they are all re- quired to take English. We expect to see great change in the physical con- dition of all our pupils.

 The people who take Spanish do not only find it interesting but see more and more how valuable it is. Especially the students who have had Latin see how closely related the two languages are. The demand for Span ish this year has been very large, so
