New Freedom" One
Cause for H. c. Of L,

.Inquiring into the high cost of
living is occupying the atten-
tion of many minds lately, and
various opinions are held as to
the upper most causeand the rene
dy most likely to prove efficacious.
In answering the query recently
sent out from state headquarters
Attorney j. W. B. Smith offers the
following as his version of the
b. C. |.
November 1st, 1919.
Hon. George Stephan,
Chairman HI. g. l.. Commission,
Denver,
My dear Governor:
have your favor of October
Both, propounding some questions
concerning tho high cost of living.
Mainly, rs pro6leering respon
sible for the present high cost OF
living?"
This question cannot be answer
ed by Yes, or No.
Primarily, in my opinion, the
present high cost of living is due
to the fact that from August, 1914,
to November 11th, 1918, a large
number of the producers of the
world were engaged in activities
other than producing from the
earth those things essential to the
life and comfort of man.
OF course, following this mass
movement of man, came the camp
follower, the selfish hoarder, the
cootie, the buSzard and the prof.
teer; these are merely incidental
Now, in our own Country, the
flood gates of Europe having been
opened, and our unselfish idealism
having been worked overtime, we
are living on a half-loaf, at rela
tive added cost, and wearing
patched pants. to the end that the
unfortunate brother may live and
have that to cover his nakedness.
Also we must not forget, that
even in 1912, there were "far-see-
ing" philosophical statesmen, and
advocates of some kind of un-
defined New Freedom discussing
the question at issue; and, at the
same time, ignoring the very obvi-
Gus fact that our urban population
was rapidly increasing, and large
ly at the expense of our rural pop
ulation.
To sum it up, there are too
many people eating wheat and
too few producingit.
While | have great faith in legis-
lation, yet, | am forced to admit
that it has it's limitations; possibly
the time may come when we will
nave to determine that celebrated
question as to which one shall
occupy the one-man board floating
the wild seas; in other words, the
Congress some day might stumble
upon stone, and thus, by accident
take its head from out the clouds
and view at closer range that por
ton of the earth upon which its
feet rest.
I have to say for myself that |
have been out of the County the
past month; if the local board has
considered the question, / have
not been advised of it. | will at
once investigate, and will report to
you.
With my best personal regards.
Yours very truly,
j. w. B. SMITH.
