AMERICANS PAID LESS

comparison of pre-war prices with those now prevailing shows that the increase in the cost of living in the United States has been less than in any other country.
 A comparison between the prices prevailing in September, 1913, ten months before the outbreak of the world war, with those of September, 1918, two months before the signing of the armistice, shows that the increase in the United States level of commodity prices 1O7 per cent In Canada the increase was 115 per cent and in the United Kingdom 133. For France the comparison with the prices of last May, to which time they had risen 235 per cent.
 In all the countries, the rise accompanied by increase in the amount of money in circul 1ation and in the amount of bank deposits. In the United States, the per capita circulation in 1913 was $34.65. December 1, 191s this had increased 62 per cent, to $56.23. During the same time, bank deposits in America increased almost three fold.

ANONYMOUS FIGHT ON THE LEAGUE

Who is inspiring and financing the circulation of anonymous letters and circulars against the league of nations? Large quantities of this hos tile literature streaming into homes and shops and offices. It takes the forms of patriotic ap- peal to the recipient; it masquerades a move ment "to preserve American rights and traditions" it quotes Scripture, history and Republican tions; it proclams "holy war" against President Wilson and the Democratic party.
 Why should persons full of love of country be so mysterious-or modest? If these patriots incurring much expense to their native land, why shouldn't they have credit for their noble dertaking? Why remain anonymous when their fellow citizens would welcome knowledge of their identity?
 The subtle suggestion in all these letters and pamphlets is that President Wilson is wrong in advocating and the Republican leaders right in opposing the league of nations. They clear 1y designed propaganda for Republican votes Their purpose indicates their authorship. They anonymous evidently because it is regarded safe to impose Republican leaders the respon- sibility for this method of bushwhacking.
 If this method of attack the league should succeed-but there is liklihood of that-Re- publicans would be the gathers. If it fails, they could escape the odum of having resorted the meanest of all weapons-an anonymous letter.

"A GROWING DANGER"

The following editorial is from The Mining Con- gress Journal for June:
 Under the above caption-after discussing an alleged threatened invasion of the American cot ton trade by the Japanese cotton manufacturers, the Quarry Workers Journal prints the following editorial which, carefully read, might suggest to an unbiased judge that the Russian idea of Iris ing up and taking whatsoever it peaseth the riser to take seems to meet the editors approval. It seems difficult to believe that there are those so ignorant of the laws of economies that they ac- tualy believe that bare hands alone create the wealth of the world and that, having created it they have only to "take it and be free"
 The Quarry Workers Journal says:
 Industry is slowing down. Unemployment IS increasing. Tens of thousands of soldiers are be- ing demobzed each month There are less jobs to be had inside the gate and there is longer line outside waiting for jobs.
 "Your wages are good; your union is strong; but some day, when you get your envelope you will be told-'no work for you after this week.
 "What will you do then?
 "High wages will not help you. The union will be impotent.
 "You will be out of job, and you will stay out of job until you can find another boss willing to hire you. The machine which you work will stand there idle, your landlord will demand the rent, the children will ask for bread and will have none to give.
 "You will understand that bitter day, that you will never be free man until you own the machine beside which you work and the product that you create. Workers, you made the world It is yours. Take it and be free"
 This editorial utterance of widely read labor journal is we'll worth the careful perusal of the men who are dreaming that within the confines of this nation there lies nothing but 'peace and safe ty."
