FOOD PRICE

Sioux City Journal - Congress be-
came suddenly galvanized into action
on the high cost of living when the
country learned from the heads of
large labor organizations that the un-
rest which prevails everywhere be-
cause Of present prices of necessities
of life, might develop into an upheaval
which would be disastrous. At the
same time the executive branch Of the
government took on the appearance OF
interest and began a study of the prob
lem and the methods by which the
evil can be removed. Like Nero, the
entire government has fiddled while
Rome burned. The public should not
cease its efforts nor slacken it's in
sistence until practical results are re-
allied. The country must have accom-
pl:shments, not talk and resolutions.
The futility of increasing wage TO
meet living expenses and then having
living expenses advanced to Offset
increases in wages is apparent TO
everyone. The consumer, under these
conditions, does not benefit. He is
merely the handler of his wages, TAX
ing them from the cashier and hand
ing them to those who supply his
living. The test of high wages is the
amount the wage Garner, whether he
be his own employer or work for an
other, can save. If he can lay aside
no more when receiving $40 a week
than when receiving $40, he is get
ting no higher wages. The country
has been going around the circle in an
increasing scale. Wages have been
raised and then cost Of necessities
has been raised to meet the wage in
crease. 1t would seem that the so
lLtion lies in reversing this process
and reducing the cost of necessities
and adjusting wages to a new level.
That is the plan suggested by Warren
S. Stone and W. G.. Lee, brotherhood
heads.
Congress and the public must keep
in mind the Difference between actual
cost of production and distribution
and artificial costs of these opera
tions. There is a point at which cost
tplus a fair and honest profit finds a
level. The difference between tina,
level and the artificial one created by
imitation is the amount of profteering
superimposed upon commodities. II
the present high prices are due to
profteering, the purpose must be to
locate the producers and stop the
process. The general policy of in
creased costs, which has been tenta,
lively indicated In many lines, notably

Mr.. WILSON'S PERSONALITY

st. Paul Pioneer Press - President
Wilson's is not a personality that ap-
peals to the crowd. SO much was per-
fectly manifest yesterday during the
presidents visit in st. Paul. There
was a certain interest in his presence.
but absolutely nothing remotely APP
preaching enthusiasm. And yet Mr.
Wilson is not only the president Of
the United States, but undoubtedly
the best advertised individual in the
whole world. Those who regard the
GOODNESS with which our public re-
ceived Mr.. Wilson yesterday as a
political ONE are not, however,
wholly correct. Mr.. Wilson's course,
politically speaking, has not been pop
ular, but it is exceedingly doubtful il
crowds, especially in the case Of the
president of the United States, think
very much about partisan politics up
on the occasion of a presidential visit.
They think a great deal more about
the personality of the president, and
it is clearly evident that Mr.. Wilson
does not make the sort of popular ap-
peal which used to throng our streets
and set our crowds wild with enthu-
siasm when the late Col. Roosevelt
visited among us. The colonel ha0
just as many political opponents as
Mr.. Wilson-but personally he was
quite a different individual. Yester-
days crowds-if the number of peo-
pie who watched Mr.. Wilson as he
moved about the city can be so des-
ignated-were respectful but entirely
lacking in enthusiasm. The people
watched him %curiously and s~iletnly as
he passed, then turned on their heels
and went about their business. Their
pulses had not been quickened a sim
gle beat, O had their emotions been
stirred in the slightest. Mr.. Wilson
is a great figure in national and in
ternational affairs, but he is most GER
tainly not a great popular leader.
Sioux Falls Argus-Leader - South
Dakota congratulates itself upon its
good fortune in having heard the chief
executive of the greatest nation on
earth, personally give his version of
the work of so momentous a task as
the German treaty. His talk was stu
dious, m%asterful, at times persuasive.
His audience understood perfectly that
the president was speaking of and in
an epochial period of the worlds his
tory. Where he enunciated those
ideals of America which all true
Americans can and do freely accept,
they %applauded him vigorously. Where
he fatty asserted that the treaty must
be accepted in its entirety with the
alternative Of world war, they greeted
the statement with a profund but re-
spectful silence. They seemed to re-
alize that they were listening to a
remarkable man who spoke wonder.
fully well chosen words, but President
Wilson could never expect to evoke
the tumultuous enthusiasm that was
invariably given his predecessor in
Office. No Ro~oseveltian fervor was
anywhere apparent, yet there car be
few who would doubt the deep sim
ceTity OF the mar who faced them
last evening, never pleading but ex-
planning a document that must in any
event take its place in history as one
of the greatest ideas of the world.

CROP SURPLUS IS
CAUSE Of NO CARS

AS further evidence that the freight
car situation car really be attributed
to the general crop surplus, a bulle-
tin issued today by a San Francisco
bank estimates CALIFORNIA; wheat
harvest at $4,000. 900 bushels, double
that of last year and the largest since
1907.
1t is estimated that the national
production of barley will reach 1867
900, 900 bushels, of which California
will yield 31,15O. 900 bushels, nearly
one-sixth.
The estimate for rice is 40. 600, 900
bushels of paddy. CALIFORNIA; pro-
portion of this is more than one-ifth,
s,750,000 bushels. a phenomenal crop
with respect to rapid strides in de-
velopment.
Some indication of the tremendous
movement of perishables out of Cali
fornia may be gained from the esti-
mate of the Pacific Fruit Express
that the amount of ice used this year
in safeguarding shipments in sixty
,hree per cent above that of last year.
Interstate shipments by the Pacific
Fruit Express from January l, 1919
to September 80, total over 49, 900 car
loads as against 81. 900 for the same
period last year.
2400 cars ahead of last year.
In the face of this phenomenal de-
mand for equipment. the railroads
are imploring shippers TO load to the
limit and release cars Immediately.
