WASHINGTON, Sept To- (Fy Senator George E. Norris on the floor of the senate today made an attack on what he called President Wilson's spendthrft habits. He said that the President continually makes a prac- tice of spending not only the gov ernments money but his own to secure his own ends, his eXpendi- lures bordering on profligacy
 In support of his contention the Nebraska senator pointed out the trip which the President iS now talk ing. He also said that MT. Wilson spent money Hike drunken sailor' as he termed it, while he Was in Europe, the sums he used having been spent for the comfort of him self and Mrs, Wilson. This state ment, he said, could be borne out by the fact that the President took two chefs and several underCooka from the BiltmOre hotel with him when he went on his two European trips.
 In political circles here the atlac of Senator Norris is considered as nothing more than another attempt to discredit the President in the eyes of the people of the country. And in any event the Presidents friends are pointing out that he is allowed a certain sum of money per year by the government for trayeIing eX penses and tha the has a right to do with his own money as he sees fit. It is also pointed out that the President has a position to maintain as the chief executive of the nation which position requires that consld- erable money be spent.

Suppose the farmer conducted his

first essentials of life, food products.

theirs, as he must do to compete IN the
labor market. Suppose he figured, as
they do carefully, all the current and
overhead charges, and divided them
proportionately on his output. Sup
pose he took in addition to his own
labor wages a fair compensation as
superintendent of his business, as he
ought Suppose he figured his manual
labor at current labor wages, with ex-
ira pay for overtime. Suppose he took
finally a reasonable profit to cover the
hazards of a business than which none
has more risks, everything considered
With all these items included, suppose
he made up the selling price of his
products-his milk or cream, eggs, beef
pork, hay, potatoes, etc, and charged
for them accordingly. How do you
think his scale of prices would compare
with his present scale?
Turn it about. Suppose the shoe man
ufacturer, for instance, took without
any effort of his own to improve it, the
price schedule for shoes that the trade
was willing to pay in the open market
