Upper Classes of Huns
Roll in Wealth; Masses
Are in Affect Poverty
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON. April 22.-Price fix
ing in Germany has been failure and
profiteering exists everywhere says
the April bulletin of the Bureau OF
Labor statistics. The upper classes
are rolling In wealth while the masses
are in AFFECT poverty.
Not daring to tax the people directly,
the bulletin says, money is raised for
the war by floating loans. These loans
although, taken to some extent by the
wealthy classes. are really paid for by
the people who have to pay exorbitant
prices. With imports cut off, the land
does not produce enough to properly
sustain life.
Shortly after the war started max
imum prices were fixed on commodi-
ties but these. says the bulletin. were
evaded by dealers and producers.
Regulation Of the amounts of the
necessities sold to one customer was
attempted but resulted In much Illicit
trading at high prices with the rich
getting the much needed commodities.
German government figures show
the cost Of living to have increased III
per cent but the bulletin says these
figures do not show the real facts.
Buying has to be illicitly done to get
the goods and enormous prices have to
be paid.

A Citizen of the United States

The nomination of Colonel Roosevelt for governor of New York would not only complete harmony among the republicans of the Empire state, would decide the elections in the close congressional dis ricts next fall For no other should the colonel be drafted for the nomination the arduous duties of the campaign and of the office during the next two years.
 That he will be the republican candidate for the presidency in 1920 is absolute certainty. There will in all probability be other name before the rational convention He is stronger today before the whole people than he has been, never in the history of the republican party has it been so united in favor of one it is today for Colonel Roose welt.
 As governor of New York he could do much for that state but there is the possibility as governor he would create antagonsms within the state which would affect his strength there two years hence, though We can conceive of contingency that would cost the party the state in the next presidential election
 Colonel Roosevelt moreover, is merely a resident of New York but private citizen of the whole country in a greater measure than any other American and as private citizen he could perform greater service to the whole country than he could perform as the executive of a single state.

MESA, NOT PHOENIX
 CAFE |S INVOLVED

The American Kitchen at Mesa, and not the American Kitchen on Central avenue, Phoenix, of which Yee Sing is proprietor, was closed by order of the state food administration yesterday. Officials from the local headquarters of the food administration went out to Mesa yesterday in connection with re- ports that the American Kitchen there had been violating the administration S regulations The result was the clos ing of the place, and it was stated that the proprietor will be made to pay a fine which will be devoted to the Red Cross fund.
 At food administration headquarters Eyesterday request was made that pub | licity be given the fact that the Amer ican Kitchen in Phoenix is in no way involved Yee Sing, it's proprietor, it was stated, has always strictly com piled with all requests and orders of the food administration.
 This request was made owing to the 1 fact that a report was current on the streets that Sings establishment in stead of that at Mesa, was the place where the violations had occurred.

It looked if there could not be another turn but if the triumph would proceed steadily toward Berlin. There may yet be set backs but looking at things they appear and comparing them with other apparently favorable phases of the long war. which were only apparently favorable
 We believed that the victory of the Marne, nearly three years ago. the of the tide Yet it transpired that it was only a respite, though a saying respite It followed by the German sue cesses in the north the disaster of the Dardanees much later by the Russian collapse and all the time the submarine campaign increasing in intensity and the strangling being drawn more closely about the allies

Though the Germans were forced back to the Hndenburg line they gathering strength for the offensive of March 21 The essential weakness the allies was the lack of unity. So long as that persisted there could be hope of victory. It if had persisted little longer Paris and the channel ports have fallen

4 Question of Loyalty

We do not know from the dispatches precisely congressional district, in convention Thursday, repudated Hiard, their representative in congress. The resolutions declare him be lacking in loyalty and devotion to the nation" That is sufficient, if there is a right understanding of what constitutes loyalty and devotion. We not familiar with the record of Mr. illiard in congress- If he any other democratic republican member has exhibited taint of pro- Ciermanism if he has said done anything calculated to obstruct progress in the war, gress is place for him.
 If however he has only questioned the methods employed in the conduct of the and has in his questioning sometimes found himself in opposition to the administration, at the same time whole heart edly supporting aims he cannot be accused of disloyalty or want devotion to the nation. only that, he has kept himself in the company of many other good democrats and republicans of rreproach- able loyalty.
 Even then his loyalty to his party may be ques toned and he may be unsuitable to represent his party, that part of it included within the boun daries of that congressional district That would be a matter for the democratic of that district to determine There is, though, broad distinction be- tween loyalty to party and loyalty to the nation.

THE ENNUI OF BEN V, p.

The ennui of being vice president the patience of active soul and stirs mind vibrant with original suggestiveness to pungently witty pression. Vice President Thomas R. Marshall simply has to be himself. We consider and allow for his tecedent condition of innocuous desuetude and yet some wit is grave injustice to the victim and pungency demands apology
 The Indianapolis speech telling how Hays young Lochinvar, come out of the west mounted that grand old palfrey, the C. o. P- had captured The Lady Theodora' and borne her in triumph to medieval castle headquarters had 'se her above the salt" and had introduced her republivan vestal virgin" doubtless amused the Hoosiers. But Vice President Marshall went farther:
 Lady Theodora being left at home, concluded to take hand in the war by writing letters in deroga- tion and criticism of it's agement to newspaper which newspaper had its general manager man who was at the declaration of hostes against the imperial German government, an alien enemy of the United States"
 Now this allusion to the Kansas City Star, founded by William Rockhll Nelson as good patri- ot this country had the newspaper which has been printing the communications of former Presi- dent Theodore Roosevelt, is technically untruth- full yet in implication and suggestion it is worthy of any German pragmatist A. F. Seested, the Stars general manager, born in Tondern Scheswg village under the Danish flag, Dane, in 1864. When he born his father at the front in the Danish army fighting Prussia But Prussia and robbed Denmark of Schleswig- -Hostein. The father brought young Seested to America and took out his first turalizaton papers, The had believed the nat uralization had been complete and had never had casion investigate. In 1917 he made the discovery that the process had not been completed and at once applied for and received full citizenship from federal court. Since then he has given his best energies to the of the United States and has contributed money freely to activities.
 We avoid the impression that just be- tween gentleman and gentleman this particular bit of Marshall pungency demands apology to MT. Seested It may be well to have reputation for airy persiflage It is better to a reputation for intellectual honesty, and there is loss of self spect in acknowledging that has done njus- tice another man.-Brooklyn Eagle Dem).
