Working Overtime
From American Economist

The administration is working the
"non-partlsanship" ouflas + e
game overtime, and the number OF
It's dupes surprises everybody. The
people are SO straiEhtforwardly pa.
triotic and loyal that they cannot
believe the administration would
take advantage Of war conditions -
advance Democratic interests in gen
cral and free-trade interests In par.
ticular. especially when the admir-
istration so vociferously shouts for
"non-partlsanship" the while 1t is
playing the partisan game to tAe
limit.
Although instances multiply. the
people ignore or overlook thcIn.
They see advantage taken of the
short sighted and greatly manufac-
tured demand" for tariff conf
mission in the appointment of--not
the non partisan board Invariably
but commission
perfunctorfly protectIonist: they see
railroads ground down by executive
persecution on the one hand and
legislative confiscation on the othc",
while the railroads are under pr
vate control. and then they see
everything that was Illegal unde"
private railway management male
legal under federal management, the
Sherman antitrust act scrappe |
where previously ruthlessly enforc ID
rates raised where previously low
cred, or a raise refused. and now
they see an attempt-that will sue
ceed-to transfer authority from
the non-partisan interstate COM
.merce commission to an intens 1ly
partisan administrator. the people
overlooking the partsanship and
credulously believing that everything
that is done Is necessary to win the
war" Let Republicans and profec-
tiorists breathe a word in advocacy
of the political and economic princi-
pies they believe in and forthwith
they are held up to public execration
AS intense partisans,' but let DEM
ocrats and free-traders blatautly
proclaim their fetish adhesion to ex-
ploded economic theories. at once
they are sanctfied!

Will Fix the Price
From American Economist.

Iuul hhNiAt0h h%NNho'h'N'-
viii the government fix the price
of wool. and neglect to fix the price
of cotton? Wool is raised in the
south as well as cotton. The man In
Texas may not be as greatly affected
by government price regulation of
wool, but in percentages he will be
as greatly affected.
or course, the price of wool has
gone "out Of sight" The same is
Just as true Of cotton. The threat of
government fixing of wool rates has
reduced the value of raw wool from
IL to 90 cents a pound. Is the fear
of government price fixing in re-
spect to raw cotton the cause of the
recent slump in raw cotton quota
tlons? Proportionately, cotton hls
dropped more in price than wool hA
in fact the bottom seems, at times,
to have dropped out OF the price of
cotton.
The government cannot afford ~
Law itself open to the suspicion OF
favorlng any particular section of
the country, or the products of any
particular section, in the matter of
price fixing, and probably it has no
thought of favortism To avoid
even the appearance Of favoritisn',
though, when the government fixes
the price of wool it should at the
same time fix the price of cotton:
