aThc man who makes money in Il
community has u duty to perform
to that community, says Up-to-The-
Times magazine. II may be- that
he has made his money by his su-
perior business ability. and that he
would have done as we'll anywhere.
That does not alter the case. If
his gifts are great his responsibility
is equally great. No man was
placed on earth for the sole purpose
of making money. and the man who
has this as his ideal had better never
have been born. 1t is not an act Of
charity but the performance of
simple duty for the man who has
made money to pass a little of it on
for the benefit Of the community
even though he never expects to see
a dollar of his contribution back.

EUROPEAN WAR CAUSE
OF HIGH FOOD PRICES
DUE TO QUANTITY
SHIPPED TO EUROPE
The Investigating Committee
Reports and Cites Some
Contributing Factors.

NEW YORK, Dec. 31-Although in
Vulnerable domestic causes are cited
as having contributed to the steady
increases in the cost OF living in re-
cent years, the most recent rise IN
prices IS attributable in large measure
10 the European war, according TO a
mitted to Governor Whitman today by
the Wicks Legislative Investigating
committee, the Governors market
commission and the mayors food sup
ply committee. The creation of a state
market department, Of proper size,
scope and power" and Of departments
Of similar character in the cities CT the.
state. are, urged as "a matter OF vital
! Immediate necessity.
The vast quantities of fondsLuffs
shipped to Europe, the report says,
have materially reduced the supply
in this country. In the first nine
months Of 1914 exports Of breadstutfs
exported to $172,000,000: in the first
nine months Of 1916 the breadstuffa
exported amounted to 1881. 900 900. Sim
ence TO other products. 1t also IS
pointed out that while the production
Of potatoes in the United States this
year has been 300,000,000 bushels, ex'
ports amounting to 100000 bushels
we're recorded to October l.
/ Other factors which have contrib
uted to the high cost" Of living are
enumerated, In part. as follows:
! Lack Of proper transportation ana
distribution facilities.
I Waste Of time and money in dup'i
cate delivery and order service.
, The Increasing tendency of you@:
men and young women to leave The
farms for tho cities.
Insufficient appropriations for aSrl
cultural education and research.
! Loss Of live stock, through dis
ease which might be overcom" by llls
inauguration OF a vetiuary service de
veloped along the lines Of that in pTac
tice In Europe.
Lack Of talent TO assist the farm;ns
community in the prosecution OF sclrn
tific work for the further development
:of the farms.
