to keep up enthusiasm
among the young people SO
that they will greater re.

WE CAN save money; pay for the

FOOD CONTROL

DRESIDENT WILSON should lose
no time in presenting to Congress
his plan for food price control dur
ing the period of the war. Every COM
modify that comes to the table is sub
ject to unjust tax at the hands of spec
ulators intent upon taking the maxi
mum profit from transactions in food
stuffs that have no other purpose than
the imitation of profits for personal
gain.
This juggling of provisions brought
about the overthrow of the Gar in
Russia. Food speculation in Germany
IS a growing menace to Hohenzollern
ambitions and England is just now be-
ginning to appreciate how serious it is
to trifle with the food supplies OF a
people.
With all that is being done to in
crease the yields of all manner of farm
products this year there should be no
question about everybody in America
having enough to eat next winter il
the price is kept down to a reasonable
level. The President is headed in,the
right direction. If he has any regard
for the welfare of the common people
or his own standing in popular opinion
a little later he will push to an early
conclusion his food control program.

PATRIOTIC MERCHANTS

TINE merchants of Harrisburg did
a purely patriotic thing when
they agreed to close their stores
Saturday afternoon and evening in
order that their employees may partici-
pate in the great patriotic demonstra-
ton. The committee in charge asked
them to shut up shop only until 6
p. m, but the businessmen generously
decided not to reopen until Monday
morning. In order not to interfere
with shoppers who find it incon-
venient to do their shopping before
nightfall, the stores will be kept open
tomorrow evening until 9 o'clock.
The people of the city should respond
by cooperating with the merchants
in order that they may lose nothing
by their holiday agreement.

BOOZE ON THE BRINK

EVERYBODY except a few besotted
T. individuals who care more for
their daily rounds of booze than
they do for their daily rations Of food,
or those of other people. will approve
the resolutions adopted by the suf-
fragist leaders of the State in confer
ence here yesterday, urging upon the
Legislature and Congress the enact
ment of prohibition legislation for the
period of the war.
It is absurd that while the Federal
and the State governments are strain
ing every effort to increase the supply
of foods, while the whole world is on
the verge of a provision famine and
while economists all agree that the
breadbasket is to be the deciding fac

Alcoholic liquors serve no good pur-
pose in times of peace and they have

used to make whisky or beer is worse
than wasted. 1t is turned from food
to poison.
The suffragists are right in goine
beyond the State Legislature for the
necessary legislation. Desirable as sucf
an enactment would be at the hand
of the General Assembly of Pennsyl
