NEWSPAPERS GOING OUT
OF BUSINESS

With printers and publishers 60
ing to war and the war industries
board cutting down newspaper cir
culation to the limit, there is a flood
of secondhand printing equipment
being placed on the market and with
few takers. Trade journals pub
lished for publishers are flooded with
hundreds of advertisements telling of
newspapers for sale and printing out
fits for sale, and with Help Wanted
notices by the column.
Apropos of this there are a few
columns Of advertisements of persons
seeking employment in the printing
trades, but peculiar note running
thru them all is that they have en-
ployment now and are doing we'll,
but that they will make a change If
there Is sufficient inducement. The
result is that printers in Butte are
trying to get jobs at higher pay in
Salt Lake, and vice versa; and print
ers in st. Louis are trying for higher
pay in Kansas City and vice versa,
and the tendency is to create q PAN
icky condition in the labor market,
increase the cost Of printing. and cut
down production to extreme limits.
The government order that no shift
ing of labor be allowed without
permit, does not apply to this con-
dition because 1t is applicable only
to firms enjoying 100 persons or
more, and Of course the average
printing plant uses less, SO the pam
icky condition continues. Publishers
who are short of help are doing
plenty of worrying, and are exchang-
ing q great many letters and tele-
grams with men who are working
for the other fellow and trying to get
a higher wage rate. With men join
ing the colors. every day and with
the draft ready to take printers in
flocks, there is certain to esuch a
closing out of newspapers as was
never witnessed before.

BELGIUM CALLS AGAIN
TO AMERICA.

Ten million people in stricken
Belgium and Northern France are
half clad, and the call come to Am.
erica to send them old clothes. II
we can tide them thru another winter
on our food and clothing, our former
gifts and their suffering and sacrifice
will not have been in vain. Failing
them now, all will be lost so far as
they are concerned. for there is no
other clothing and food for them.
Last fall and winter we were
asked to take the wheat off of our
tables to send to Europe, and we did
it. We not only saved them and
won their lasting gratitude and the
gratitude of posterity, but we are
better off for the change and sacri-
fee, and have enlarged our own
spirits. ......
AS we sort up our used clothing
next Monday to see what we shall
send to Belgium and France, let
us not forget that as those stricken
people found friends and succor in
their awful trials, we shall in turn
find ways to clothe ourselves if we
should come to need. Certainly this
is one of the cases where it is plainly
more blessed to give than to re-
ceive, and as each of us has doubts
as to just how much of our supply
of clothing to contribute Monday,
think of how we rescued the allies
with wheat when we did not know
what We were going to eat. We
know now what we ate, and we are
glad we ate it-glad we sent our
wheat to them. A year from now
our hearts will swell with greater
JOY if We remember that we went
without something to help in saving
them.
Sort up your old clothes and keep
them working.

company, showing that juries have
one kind of verdict Tor railroads and
another kind for other people.
Judging all Alike
The editor of this paper does not
love the railroad company any more
than the public, and is not seeking
to excuse one more than the other,
but in the rebuilding of our habits
of life as they relate to cars on pri-
vate tracks and to cars on public
thOrofares, people should clearly
recognize their own part In prevent
ing accidents and should deal Justly
and without prejudice. So long as
they allow prejudice to blind them,
and SO long as they are Influenced by
pettifogging lawers, whose avowed
purpose is always to sock it to the
railroads right or wrong, just so long
will the increased and unnecessary
danger and sacrifice continue. The
greatest problem is to keep the
children safe, and it will make a
great difference with them and their
behavior around the trains whether
parents at home are condemning the
railroad as If they bore the whole
responsibility, or whether the par
ents inform the children that trains
are not for them to use, but to stay
away from; that trains are entitled
to run and that if people get on them
or in the way and get hurt it is their
own fault. 4ne attitude Of parents
in many homes makes children
troublesome at depot and crossings,
and spurs them to NEEDLE and ven
ture rather than to keep their place.

THE WORLD STRIPPED
OF AUTOMOBILES

America is to stop building autos
within the next sixty days excepting
for war work. The plants will be
making tanks and munitions. Peo-
pie who have cars will have to make
them last or go afoot. People who
have no cars will get along without
them. Old cars will be repaired and
rebuilt, and the present supply will
dwindle until the end of the war.
We predict that never agin will
there be such varied supply of pat
terms extant. The need for cars and
trucks will be SO pressing by the end
of the war that it will be necessary
to produce them in quantity as Ford
has done, and everything will be bent
to that end.
We predict that never again will

again will people waste their energies

trucks and tractors. The experts

HARD TO SELL WHEAT

The Blackfoot mill has been buy
ing wheat since the threshing sea-
son opened, until last Friday, and
then they had to stop buying on ac-
count of the lack of storage facilit-
les. They will soon have an addition
to the mill completed, and then they
can take on some more wheat, but
this will not enable them to handle
all that comes by any means.
We are informed that the elevator
is accepting wheat for storage, but
that they are not buying. The mill
does little business on the grist
plan, but that is complicated by the
rule requiring them to take part
substitutes.

that we are going to have, and the
improved methods of doing things,
everybody will have the best and at
moderate prices.
There is one thing that will rise
after the war, the price of farm land.
Improvements may or may not count,
but the soil, the square rods of
mother earth, will be sought after
by the possessor of gold.

FOOD PROF|TEERS
 MAY GET THEIRS
NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL
 FOOD ADMINISTRATORS TAX ING EVIDENCE AGAINST FOOD
 BROTHERS.

Several days ago National Food Ad- ministrator Hoover announced that much complaint had been mad~ against millers, wholesalers and re- tailers regarding the prices charged for wheat substitutes, and he announc ed at that time that the substitutes should not sell for more than 20 per cent below the retail prices charged for wheat products. This announce ment seems to come at the right time, for while all are very patriotic, and doing everything to win the war, as we'll as to conserve the wheat supply it is evident that somebody has been profit-taking on the wheat substitu- tes Corn meal has been selling for prices greater than that which has been charged for wheat flour. Other substitutes have been practically as high. So the state and local food ad- ministrators have received advices from MT. Hoover to get busy, and see who is so patriotic that they can af- ford to take an extra profit on wheat substitutes just because the regula- tions require the people to consume them
 Acting under orders from State Food Administrator Riordan Local Food Administrator R. K. Minson is now engaged in making an investiga- ton of the prices charged in Clifton. His findings will be reported to the State administrator, whether for good or evil. In discussing the situation MT. Minson stated that he was en deavoring to locate the responsibility of high cost of substitutes, so far as Clifton was concerned, and is get ting local prices, not only from deal CTS, but from consumers. If the f1nd- ings place the blame on retailers or the mills, the matter will be turned over to the State administrator for adjustment. MT. Minson stated that he had already found that some deal CTS were charging different prices than others for the same merchandise But this investigation has also dem onstrated that the people of Clifton are obeying instructions regarding the conservation of wheat products. The local administrator stated that one firm has reported falling off in sales of wheat products of 72 per cent during the past month.
 According to the instructions re- ceived from MT. Hoover the maximum profit allowed retailers on wheat sub' stitutes are 16 to 20 per cent, while

Following is the letter:

The 27th is composed mostly of old timers and is considered the best regiment of all the regiments of engineers. We have good clothes, good things to eat, a good place to sleep everything is first-class. The officers are the best fellows man could wish for. There are about 600 men now and we are expecting more yet to fill the ranks A man that does not join the 27th is fool We are going to get more out of tthan any other branch of the ser vice.
