CHOKING THE FOOD PIRATES

The action of the administra-
ton in extending control over
foodstuffs may be taken to mean
that profiteering has become far
more extensive and is showing
more resistance than was antici-
pated. II is hard to subdue
greed. A taste Of war profits,
like the tigers taste of blood, has
aroused q distinct yearning for
more, and we must concede q
measure of truth in the assertions
that the ones who were yelling
loudly for the war are often
those who are making the most
money out of it. That, of course,
is not to be considered as an
argument for peace at this time,
but nevertheless it is the truth.
The cost of living in this coun-
try must be reduced and the adj
ministration must reduce it with
an unyielding hand, if necessary.
The profiteers must be choked
into submission to the country's
necessities if there is no other
way.
II was believed a few weeks
ago that government control of a
few Of the large necessities Of
life would accomplish all that
was needed, but evidently that
view was wrong. The president
announced in July that prices at
which the government purchased
war supplies would prevail TOR
the benefit of the public. That
promise must be kept. While
price fixing for many of the food
commodities of lesser Importance
has not been decided, a long step
toward better conditions should
result from the announcement
that after November ist the gov
eminent will control the storage.
importation and distribution of
some twenty important commodi-
ties. This action has been made
necessary to prevent unreason-
able profits and to stop boarding
and speculation.
The people must be protected
from these monsters of greed,
the profiteers. and there is no
place to look for it other than
Washington.

DIR. SlSSON'S INAUGURAL.

The ceremonies attending the
installation Of DIR. Edward Q. Sis
son as president Of the State Uni
versity yesterday, were entirely
fitting to the Importance and dig
nifty Of the occasion. The gov
ernor, the chancellor and the
heads of the various institutions
Of our state system were in at
tendance and contributed an inn
portant part to q dignificd and
worthy program. Our citizens
indicated their interest in the
university by gathering in large
numbers with the students. Al
together there was left a distinct
and satisfactory impression that
good things are in the future.
President Sisson came to us
with the highest commentator
of his work elsewhere and his
services here, though brief, and
his relations with the faculty and
students have fully sustained the
judgment of his choice. We
think that under his adrninistra-
ton the university will thrive
and especially that there will be
restored harmony, cooperation
and good will without which no
institution for learning may yield
satisfactory results.
The days Of dissensiOn are at
an end and good era is at hand.
