TO OUR PATRONS.

Commencing on August LIST the subscription
price of The Courant will be $500 per annum
to subscribers in the United States and it's pos
sessions and $3.50 per annum to those in Can
ada and other countries.
This innovation is most distasteful to the
publishers, and one which they had much hesl-
fancy in adopting, but it has been made imper-
atively necessary by the increased cost of every
thing which enters into the making OF the
paper, which cost has increased during the past
twelve months from so to 200 per cent. Added
to this is the greatly increased cost OF news
paper postage and the Government tax on news
paper advertising.
Upon the restoration of business to its nor
NAL condition, and the consequent reduction in
the price of printing office supplies to some
thing like the condition which existed before
this European horror turned the whole world
topsvturvy, The Courant expects to restore it's
former subscription price, but until that hoped
for time arrives the rate will be as above stated.

THE PROFITEERs TRAILED.

If the Federal Trade Commission has done
nothing else to justify it's existence, its expos
ure Of profteering by privileged monopolies
would amply suffice. Of course these monopo-
periods. But officials who might have exposed
their methods were Of the kline who could see
nothing unfair in privilege when they saw it.
So it looked quite fair to them that capitaliza-
ton should include the value Of privilege, the
grant by government to favored persons or
corporations of power to do something denied
to others. These privileges might be in various
forms. 1t might be, as in the case Of the Beef
Trust, power and influence with franchise hold
ing corporations. Or as in the case of the Oil
Trust with exclusive grants OF pipe line fran
chises in addition to power over the railroads.
And it might be as in the case Of the copper and
other metal trusts, ownership of the sources
control over parts of the earth or Partially
shown by the government in some other way.
But so accustomed has the average official be-
come to these evils that he looks upon them as
desirable institutions, which should not be
questioned for a moment. So the people have
suffered from an aver-increasing cost Of living.
Monopolists have insisted that they were MAX
ing but a very slight profit on their invest
ments." And only radical agitators pointed to
the flaw in the reasoning that justified such a
situation.
Because the truth was thus concealed, Con-
gfeSS, IN us DllndneSS, could 90 nOCnlng else
than enact such futile legislation as the anti
trust law, which, during the % years of it's
presence on the statute books, though frequent
ly invoked, has not destroyed a single monopoly.
And why should any have thought that it
would? Penal statutes have failed to put an
end to petty larceny. Why should reasonable
men hope by that means to put an end to prac-
ticesethat may give to those who resort to them
fortunes equal to those of Rockefeller or Car
negie?
But when the Federal Trade Commission was
organized there was put upon it one man at
least who understands fundamental principles.
That man is William B: Colver. He knows how
to distinguish between capital and privilege
masquerading as capital. And he has had no
trouble in locating the profteering.
Now comes the question, what should be done
about it.? Some hysterical editors are demand
ing Jail sentences for the profteers, as though
there has not been experience enough with such
methods to show their ~futility; The abolition
of all privilege is the real remedy. It is use
less to pass laws forbidding men from doing
what other laws encourage them to do. If
Congress would follow the advice of Commits
sioner Colver in framing remedial legislation
it will be more likely to enact an effective law
than will be the case should it pursue the old
policy of loading up the statute books with more
laws to put men in Jail.

WHY SHOES ARE A LUXURY.

Capper's Weekly: Why it's meat and shoe
bills are so high is no longer a mystery to the
American people, if it ever was. The report of
the Federal Trade Commission tells the story:
Five meat packers, Armour, Swift, Morris,
Wilson and Cudahy, lave monopolistic control
OF the meat industry and are reaching for the
domination of other products. Their manipu-
lation of the market embraces every device
that is useful to them without regard to law"
The war started in August, 1914. In 1915
lars in excess profits over the 8 years preceding
the war during which their aggregate average
profit was 10 million dollars.
In 1916 the excess was sc million dollars and
in 1917, 68 million dollars over their peace pro-
fits.
In the 8 war years their profits toStaled 14o
million dollars, making the excess war profit
III million dollars. They took advantage Of the
war to extort these millions from the con-
sumner.
With more leather in the country than ever
before, many persons wondered why they had
to pay outrageous prices for shoes.
More than anyone else the packer controls
the leather market. In 1916 the Federal Trade
Commission reports net profits in leather "were
IN several instances 2, 8, a or even 5 times as
large as in 1915"
One company's net profits rose from 1914, 900
in 1914 to more than 31s million dollars in 1915.
On January II, 1917, a check for $915,787
was mailed to j. Ogden Armour as a Dividend
of So per cent on his stock in the Eastern
Leather Company, the selling branch of the
Armour leather business.
Swift & Company control six leather and
tannery companies.
This shows what good friends the Kaiser has
in the packers. They have not only increased
the cost of living in America, but also where
American products go to aid in fighting the
war. They have lone all they could to make
the burden Of the war harder for the people.
But they are not beyond reach. The Federal
Trade Commission has made the facts known.
Congress has a plain duty before it and there
must be no side-stepping Of that duty.

DOINCS AT CAMP DODGE
CONTINUED from page IL

Every morning mounted officers
visit the farm homes in the vi
cinity of the range and get the
occupants to sign a statement
that they have been appraised Of
the artillery fire to be conducted
that day and that they will not
expose themselves to danger and
after the practice is over Of
which notice is given them they
will not modest any unexploded
shrapnel shells.
Remembering Home Folks.
Every Sunday the soldier boys
make it a point to write letters.
Of course they write also during
the week but Sunday is the one
big day. On q single Monday
morning the postal authorities
collected 41,0OO letters at the Y.
M. C. A. stations upon the
grounds and in the afternoon
$1,000 more, making for the day
$1,000 letters that left the camp
for the folks back home. This
gives some idea of the enlarged
duties that have been thrust up
on the Des Moines postoffice,
since the establishment of the
cantonment.
Another Negro Regiment.
The negroes who recently ar
rived from Tennessee and Ala
bama, have been placed with the
92d negro division under the
command Of Maj. Gen. C. C.
Ballou. It will be known as the
804th infantry. It is believed
that the intention is to make it
a replacement division from
which well trained men can be
drawn from time to time to fill
up incomplete units at other
camps. The first installment Of
negroes who were given six
months vigorous training here
are in France.
Men From Camp Funston.
Several hundred well trained
soldiers were transferred to this
camp from Camp Funston last
week. These men are about the
best equipped unit that has been
here since the arrival of the reg
ulars from Salt Lake last fall.
When the 88th division leaves
for France these well trained sol
diers will be Of great service to
the thousands of new men who
come the last Of the month from
Montana, South Dakota and Ne
braska.

Against Gambling.
A word Of warning has been
issued to soldiers here in a di-
vision order which says manu-
facturers and dealers in crooked
gambling devices, including the
marked card, shippers and load
ed dice are disposing Of these in
large quantities to enlisted men
in army posts and cantonments.
In practically every organiza-
ton here there is an order pre-
venting gambling. It is the de-
sire of the authorities however,
to put enlisted men on their
guard against the possibility Of
being roped in on a crooked
game Of some kind.
Emblems to Ask Soldiers to Ride

blems to be placed on the wind

3eisure of Housewives Food Stocks
Impossible.

The government hos never consid-
cred any plan Of seizing foodstuffs
owned by householders. Nor is there
any policy Of this kind suggested for
the future
In spite of this fact, the United
States food administration has been
obliged repeatedly to issue official de-
malls Of rumors that the government
intends Communicating preserves and
canned goods put up in American
homes.
These rumors were originated partly
by pro- German propagandists and part
" by constituencies grafters, who
sought TO profit through buying from
misinformed housewives.
The year 1918 will see home canning
and preserving practiced on greater
scale than ever before in the nations
history, officials in Washington believe.
And they are assuring all patriotic
housewives that foods so saved are
theirs, and theirs alone.
