We are told that Secretary of
State Nolan has discovered that
there are $3.50, 900 pounds of old
potatoes stored in Denver and in
silos in the state of Colorado.
while the poor people have been
paying$5. 90 or Sc. 90 per hundred
The Secretary's report shows
that thousands of pounds in silos
will be thrown away. unfit to use.
And vet the food dictators will
be telling us soon how many
pounds of potatoes we may eat
because of great shortage in
production under the present
system of market manipulation.
What incentive can there be for
the common people to skimp and
save? The combine of men who
have committed this awful crime
against humanity are in the same
category with safeblowers and
highway robbers, and tho they
live in palaces and move in the
highest social circles they should
be dealt with accordingly. If
Secretary Nolan can discover this
great horde of toodstuffs which
is only one case in a thousand,
he can also produce the names
of the men guilty of this das-
tardly crime and see to it that
they are punished if there is any
law under which they can be
prosecuted-and we believe there
is a law. If there is no law, then
in the name of all that is humane
and just, let there be a special
session of the Legislature to
create one. and it cannot be made
too drastic in its scope.
And again it should be the bu-
siness of some one in authority to
turn such produce loose upon the
market at price commensurate
with the law of supply and de-
mand.

Colorado is proving that her
sons are as loyal to their country
as in many other states in
the union, and it is to be hoped
that the State will be as loyal to
the boys who enlist as it should
be. So far there seems to have
been a great lack of attention in
the matter of equipment and the
several hundred who are stationed
at Golden up till now have not
been supplied even with complete
uniforms or with guns.
They cannot be expected to get
the full benefit of the training in
the field if they are not properly
equipped and there is no economy
in having them modified to drill
with broom sticks and bed stats.
The legislature appropriated
$40. 900 for this purpose and
because it is apparently far be-
meath the requirements Cover
nor Gunter. it is claimed, is a
fraid to break in on this fund.
If necessary a special session of
the general assembly should be
called to meet this emergency.
