THE TREND OF PRICES

Past history has proven quite con.
clusively that you can no more legis.
late the cost of living up and down
than you can stop the tide by building
a sea wall. The basic economic law
of supply and demand always has and
always will determine prices. in spite
Of artificial restrictions which may
seem to interfere temporarily. When
demand exceeds supply. prices are
bound to rise. With three hungry men
for single loaf Of bread, but one
thing can happen. When supply ex.
ceeds demand the reverse is true.
Three loaves Of bread to one man bring
prices tumbling down.
The real cause for the present high
level prices Is apparent when you real
ize that the United States Is exporting
at present twice the foodstuffs that 1t
exported year ago. and three to four
times the amount exported in normal
years. We are feeding Europe What's
more, We must continue to feed
Europe. until 1t gets back on its own
feet again. Their crop of 1919 will help
some. but We must wait until the har.
vest of 1920 before they are wholly in
dependent OF this country. - II the
general public can be educated to an
appreciation OF the situation a. 1t ia,
and can be made to see that the we'll
being Of every one Of US depends upon
every man producing rs be never pro-
duced before. supply can be increased
to meet and exceed this unprecedented
demand and we shall weather the
storm with everybody ahead.
Under the circumstances, 1t is more OF
q religious question than an economic
one. Maximum production on the part
Of every individual must be made Z
moral issue. Decreased demand
means depression. and unemploy ment
and hard times for every BODY In.
creased production will meet the situa'
ton and solve the problem. but that
can only BE- accomplished by every
man putting his shoulder to the wheel
and producing - he never produced %

way, when people begin to look dowI
