CHARGED ARE EVIDENCE OF
 PR0FiTEERING

It doesn't require a Tnagnifying glass to find evidences of profiteering in this country. The prices we are compelled to pay for suits, for certain cotton materials, for shoes and for numerous other necessities are out ragcous. And now comes a prom ineut Brazilian authority on coffee who gasped on arriving in New York and finding that as high as 15 cents a pound was being charged for coffee and that mediocre stuff was selling for 40 cents pound. He declared most cnphatically that the 75-cent brand sold in Brazil for 12 1-2 cents nd the d0-cent variety for 10 cents. He added that every Brazilian port is piled high with coffee ready for ship merr--thc vessel by which he tras eleh brought no less than 0,000 bags of coffee and fully half as much O. coa. As if the prices here were not high enough already, an increase of cents q pound was audaciously an- rounccd n week Or two ago.
 Sew York's Commissioner of Pub lie Markets, Jonathan c. Day, states without eqrivocation that ''mercan- tile manipulation is responsible" He declares that he learned quietly some time ago that a powerful ring was being formed to control coffee prices here, ard events have certainly not belied tho accuracy of the informa- tion-Forbes Magazine.

A Forth Worth banker who owrs some property pear the Ranger pool says he is afraid to go into the field Everyone who does, he says, comes back crazy. oil is infectious. OK lahouna has been made rich by oil Texas is prosperinC as her people never dreamed she could. It Is estimated that Tn the year since the discovery of the new field in Texas more than a billion dollars has been raid In cash for oil leases. In these estimates there is a lesson for the buyer of new oil stocks.
 l. will take production of 5GO.OOI. 900 barrels of oil at present prices to return to the owners of these leases the amount of cash. they have paid for them. This leaves no allowance for drilling and other coets. and when this figure is com ared with a total production for the entire country of only 345,- OOo. GOO barrels in 1918, 1t. Is an indication that many of these leases are not likely to pay back in oil the amount of money that has been put into them. Unfortunately for the oil stock purchaser. many of those who buy these leases do not expect to get their money back from the production of oil.-John K. Barnes in the Worlds Work for July.
