GREAT PROBLEM
 AFTER WAR ENDS
 WILL BE PRICES

AMSTERDAM, Nov. S0.-Corre- The United States assumes an aston ishing prominence in all German dis cussions of industrial and economic conditions after the war. Seldom, if ever, before in European history has an outside power been so unanimously conceded a place as a determining fac tor in European affairs. Thus, an ar ticle by Professor Franz Eulenburg in the Review Welthandel, although dealing solely with probable commer- cial conditions in Germany after the war, finds them largely bound up with the possibilities of American workers, and the article is filed with references to the United States and its commer- cial future as vitally threatening Ger many.
 Professor EulenburS believes that the hardships and privations which the German people have endured, and the discipline which they have learned have created in them a capacity for economy and hard work which will be their greatest advantage over less well disciplined peoples" like the Eng fish and the American. Discipline and rigid economy, he declares, will be the chief requisites in the great world task | of restoring prices to normal levels. One of the greatest problems after 1 the war will be thGH or prices," he says. For Germany it will be a question of life and death that prices shall fall 1 again from the dizzy height which they have now attained.
 After the war the level in prices in the world-market generally will re- INtf+e oil over the world. The causes are not the same everywhere. In the neutral countries and the United States it is less the shortage of goods than infla- tion that has led to the dearness of everything. In some cases these coun- | tries are actually swimming in gold and this necessarily involves it's de- | preciation. It comes to the same in the end, however, whether the cost of production is increased for this reason or for that. These countries will therefore, continue to have high prices | for a considerable time after the war and there, too people will have to make up their minds to a permanent rising l of prices.
 Tn addition, there is a special ob- stacle in the difficulty of procuring labor. It is clear that South America | after the war will nave a level of prices similar to ours. In these coun- tries also the cost of production will continue high for similar reasons to those cited in the case of Germany The United States will for long time have to do without the stream ol workers which yearly flowed into that country. Labor in the cotton, wheat and mining districts will be scarce for years, and for that reason
 wages will be high. In view of the
 general scarcity of and demand for
 raw materials, home prices for goods
 will also remain high.
 ''The cost of production for man.
 ufactured articles in England, tho
 United States, Belgium and Switzer,
 land, will not be appreciably lowel than in Germany. Thus the com petition in prices by the manufactur ing countries appears to be practical ly on an equal footing. Even Japar will not be able to offer her manu factures at such low prices as t flood the world market.

morrow and accompanied by officers will SCOUT the Cave Creek district in the hope of finding some faint trace of the man whose disappearance has not yet been solved by the authorities
 The Oregonian holds the opinion of many others that the body of Folston will be discovered when the water is turned out of the Arizona canal It is understood that this will be done on Saturday and the canal banks will be lined with men more eager to aid the officers in the perpleXing case than to receive the reward which has been of fered. The sheriff's office has offered $250 for Folston dead or alive and to this will be added the $100 first offered by Ben Folston when his brother passed from view November 20.

The appeal to men to save wooden material by reducing the frills on their clothes is good.
 Belted coats, except the few sporty Norfolks used for golfing, will disappear next year; and fashion designs will naturally follow the tendency of recent date ill scanty dimensions, without radical change. That is about all that's possible, unless we all take to knickerbOckers. Wearing old clothes is sure to become fashion able hence men should select the best sort of new clothes that will jolly up'' and look good for several seasons. The other day a GUS toner wore in here an overcoat he had used for ten years and after buy ing a new one had the old coat sent home for bad weather. How dis couraging.

Miss Beulah Mitchell has been

going under the surgeons knife.
