AMERICAN PEOPLE
DEMAND VIGOROUS
WAR PROSECUTION

ly there can be no demoralization 1T the market.
 The producers are different because of having sold their maximum prod uct; they would have no cause to be concerned by a readjustment of prices as they have not been parties to nor have they favored the advance in the market to the present level. That con- dition has been brc- ght about by the buyers, who have, in following their own inclination and acting on their own judgment, failed in providing for their requirements when, as was we'll known to them, the foreign govern ments were negotiating their pur- chases. The producers have sought in the market more than any thing else.
 Looking to the future and to con- ditions existing after the war is over, it may be propert to cali attention to the fast that the foreign governments in connection with representatives of all of the trades, through committees organized for the purpose have been studying ways and means of protect ing themselves in the purchase of sup plies, most of which must come from this country.
 These committees in the various and particularly in central Europe, have formulated all of their plans and are ready to deal with the business on a strictly businesslike basis.
 May the question not be asked, what
