tions the government could not af-
ford to guarantee the farmer price
for his wheat highe, than the pre-
vailing market prices.
This explanation IS an excuse rath-
er than an argument, for under such
conditions the farmer would be far
more in need of a guaranteed price
than he now is. The stress OF the
reconstruction period will be harder
to sustain than the stress of war.
The danger of a reconstruction period
is not that prices may he too high
but that they may RAPIDLY tumble to
such a low level as to bring about
panic and dire distress. The greatest
need during the period Immediately
following the war when business of
all kinds will be readjusting itself
to a peace basis will be ready cash
and liberal credit. A slump In the
labor market or in the price of farm
products would so handicap our finan-
cial resources as to retard the entire
reconstruction movement and usher
in an indefinite period of depression
in all lines of business.
1t is to prevent Just such calam-
ity that Great Britain has perfected.
as a part of her scheme of recon-
struction, a plan whereby she guar
antees wages for a rather lengthy
period following the end of the war;
has made arrangements to continue
to pay all of her soldiers for per-
iod of one year following their being
mustered out; and guarantees her
farmers fixed prices for their products
for a period OF several months fol-
lowing the declaration of peace.
Who Cares About Farmer?
This is in striking contrast to the
short-sighted policy which now pre-
walls in this country. The nothern
farmer has not profited by this war.
He has had the price of many of his
products fixed; he has been compell-
ed to meet terrific advances in freight
rates. which pinches him both ways
being added to everything he buys
and being subtracted from the price
of everything which he sells; he has
had the price of everything he wears
and of all his farming machinery ad-
vanced to him in far greater proper
tion than he has had the price of
wheat he sells advanced. His hired
help and his own sons have been
taken into military service, thus Grip
pling him in his production, and at
the same time he has been asked to
increase HIS production as a matter
of patriotism.
He has stood for all of this with
out n murmur, and has compiled
with every request of the government
because he is intensely patriotic and

RATE INCREASE ASKED

The Arkansas Valley Railway,
Light and Power Co., is asking the
Public Utility Commission for per-
mission to make a slight advance in
rates. The company has held its rates
down longer than most public utility
companies, and now it has become a
necessity that rates be changed in
order to impair the service given its
patrons.
The advance would be for the dur
alton of the war, or until things be-
come adjusted again. 1t was hoped
by the company management that
they could pull thru without an in
crease but in keeping with other
costs it is a necessity and the Public
Utility Commission will be justified
in granting the request.

Sympathies Not Expected

Although the Rev Dr. Judah l.. Magnes
was forced to resign from the Ameri-
can Jewish Committee because of his
declaration Of sympathy for the Rus
sian Bolsheviki he apparently is 60
ing TO retain his position as chairman
OF the American JEWS Kchillah- Mem
bers of the board of trustees OF TN,
kehillah stated yesterday there had
been no talk Of DR.. Magnes leaving that
position. and added as far as they were
concerned there would be no such talk
Dr. Magncss resignation from the
American Jewish Committee at meet
ing of the executive committee Thurs
day night was Immediately ly accepted;
A rumor yesterday insisted other
Bolshevik sympathizcrs on the commit
tee would be asked to resign. Louis
Marshall, president of the committee,
denied'any additional designations were
expected.
1t was pointed out yesterday that
while DR.. Magnes's views might make
him out of harmony with the members
of the American Jewish Committee. his
policies would not interfere SO much
with his work as chairman Of the kehil
lah. The committee. having as its pur-
pose the protection of Jewish interests
the world over. is somewhat political
in its nature. while the Kehillah is a
religious and philanthropic organiza-
tion
