In spite Of slight Inconvenience To the

II reported 10 the Food Administration.
One well-known lunch room company
which suddenly raised iis prices from
forty to one hundred per cent received
an immediate utimatun from the rood
Administration to return to former
rates or turn over the lunch room to the
government Other proilteer1ng com
panes have been given the alternative
of forfeiting their licenses or contributing
their surplus gains tn the Red Cross
The Food Administration does not
fix retail prices. Its prices requesting
results are achieved largely through
publication of fair price lists showing
the minimum and maximum prices
which the honest dealer should charge.
These lists are published IN daily papers
and posted by patriotic dealers so that
the public may know which stores are
charging exorbitant rates and report
them or boycott them until fair prices
only are charged. This measure is most
successful in communities where there
is competition between dealers. In
crowded cities like Washington, dealers
know that they can sell at any price
and here The cooperation Of the public
in reporting unfair prices IS especially
needed If the government IS 10 secure

FOURTEEN COMMANDMENTS.

As the fourteen principles Of Mr.
Wilson come to be scrutinsed they
more and more are brought under the
suspicion of inadequacy because events
have moved nightly since their formu-
lation. A principle is applicable only
when the conditions for which II was
designed remain stable The events
of The war have been tremendously
moving and the principles would call
for constitutional lawyer with great
ability to make flexible some of them
in order TO have them meet the conditions
that now exist in the direction Of peace.
lust as the ten commandments were
reduced to one so the fourteen principles
are capable Of reduction to one. That
is not as in the former case the prIn-
ciplc Of love, but the principle Of justice
That principle of Justice was adequately
set forth hy Mr. Wilson IN his Baltimore
address when sweeping all other pro
posals from the boards because ot the
breach Of faith Of the Germans with
their Reichstag resolution. he set forth
the principle Of force without stint or
limit There is nothing now To- alter
this as the sole principle oi action When
il shall have answered its ends. the table
will be clear for peace dictated by the
Allies and the United States as conquer

measured to all peoples, not excepting
the German people rs such Nothing

THE WAR ACCOUNT.

In the current Yale Review Mr. &.
Reinold \oyes, writing entertalnlngly
and instructively under the title Fal-
lacies OF War Finance, reminds us of
certain elementary economic principles
which. because they are not and can
not be abrogated, may serve to assure
us that the nation Is riding on an even
keel while passing through the hnan-
cial storm which war conditions raise
The estimated needs OF the govern
nent for the coming year amount to
s24 ,OO0, 900, 600 But, as this winter
points out. the proposed expenditure
is nothing more than a measure of our
assumed productive capacity One of
the ablest financial authorities in the
Senate has expressed doubt that we
can use so much money, for the phys
ical reason that all the capital and all
the labor In the country cannot produce
the volume Of goods the appropriations
would call for at the most excessive
level of prices
At any rate, the goal set for us is TO
produce goods and render service TO the
value Of S24 ,000, 900 600 Because money
or its representatiye-cTed of such
! convenience that il is regarded as es-
sential to the exchange of commodities,
we think in those terms, and so may be-
come confused in our estimate of real
values The national wealth we are
! mobilizing for the prosecution of the
war is money only in a negligible pro-
portion. What we are putting In is our
capacity for production, goods and
service .-Proyidence Journal.

PRESS COMMENT.
GERMAN COWARDICE.

II is at least certain that the Germans
are not meeting the fated issue of Anna
gcddon with either dignity or nobility.
There is something indc6nHbly ignoblc
in their complaining and wailing. We
have seen the French, apparently threat
ened with irremediablc ruin, stand nn-
daunted in the presence of a national
catastrophe. We have seen the English
called upon by Marshal Haig to fight
with their backs to the last wall that re-
manned between them and destruction.
Invaded and menaced Italy stood UP
under hurricane of blows without
whimpering. But Germany defeated in
stantly become Germany well-nigh
despicable in spirit. We could have
more respect even for people whom we
fear and fight, people ineffaceably stain
ed by acts of cruelty and crime, if they
would at least quit themselves like may
when their hour of retribution came.
But Germany today is lustifying by her
poor-spirited bearing all that has ever
been said Of the inherent baseness of
the whipped bully,
The signs Of the times point distinctly
to political upheaval in Germany,

| ccpting every high-colored report that

Rephrehensibie.

The attempt to make partisan political
capital out of the awful infliction that now
rests upon our city is most reprehensible.
There never should have been even a sug-
gestion of such despicable thing, either
in the form Of an original claim or q re-
prisal.
1t is true that politicians and candidates
have worked efficiently in the campaign
against the dread intrusion. But so have
hundreds Of persons who are not politici-
ans or candidates They felt it to be their
duty, and they did what they could. No
doubt the politicians and candidates also
were impelled by a sense Of duty, and it is
sufficient to let ii go at that without
seeking partisan advantage from their
services.
The entire affair is both reprehensible
and disgusting. We hope we shall hear
nothing more OF it,
