LONDON, July 9.-Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle has come out strongly against
postwar pronteering. as follows:
Unless something is done quickly
and done thoroughly to check the ris-
ing prices in the necessaries Of life
there will be violence In this country.
\ man must live, and these wicked
prices are making It a hard matter.
What are our rulers about and why
are they tacitly protecting handful OF
profteers. to the danger OF the nation?
THE men who are making fortunes
out Of the needs OF the people are not
very numerous and they are not diff
cult to find. Very little examination
would establish their guilt and IL there
is no law adequately to punish them.
then It Is a reproach TO our lawmakers
that such a law should not exist Let
It be passed and most vigorously en-
forced. A dozen cases OF extreme
punishment would work wondrous
change.
