NO E POSSIBLE.

There being no reason to believe that The German
conscience will be troubled in the least by any contemr
plation Of atrocities committed by the Hun armies. it is
fair to ascribe a Berlin discussion of the Edith CaveIl
murder TO a desire of the persons Immediately respon-
sible for it to escape the just penalty for their crime.
Germany may put forward all the technical argu-
ments that It is possible for her to devise and she viii
not alter the conviction Of the world that Miss Cavells
execution was deliberate and coldblooded murder. Evil
dence there is in plenty that. irrespective of what Ger
man military law may have provided IN cases like that
of the British nurse in Belgium. the Hun authorities
were determined that they would have her for a victim.
They violated their pledged word to the United States
legation and to- others who sought for Miss Cavel moth
ing but justice. Had they done otherwise her precious
life might have been spared.
Her trial was a travesty and the manner Of her ex-
ecution almost incredibly brutal Her murderers rich

us TAXING HOLD.

The daily news from throughout the country shows
that the crusade against high prices is taking hold. In
dictments against prohteers are being returned prompt
ly. and supplies of hoarders are being seized. The in
vestigators are going after the big concerns suspected of
manipulation and the offending retailers alike. Mean
while the surplus food of the army Is being put on sale,
and helpful measures of a business nature. such as the
being applied.
Attorney General Palmer IS proving a fghter. He
broke the hold Of the Huns upon some Of our industries
and routed them when they attacked him before the
senate. He has demonstrated that he means business in
this crusade, and should have the prompt support OF the
public everywhere. 1t is the peoples fight and they
should not hang back anywhere in doing their part They
should heed the daily calls to any who have evidence of
profteering TO present it to the authorities. and they
should scan the papers every day for statements on
prices, in the advertisements of the reputable dealers as
we'll as in the statements of the authorities.
Now that the movement is taking hold, make it a
thorough cleanup.

When the happy and useful thought strikes the
American mind that work. hard work. will solve most
economic problems. and all social problems, we shall
hear but little of the high cost of living.
There are too many people who are riding and idling.
and too few walking or blowing.
1t is the age of gasoline and the rubber tire. high
speed and short hours, the moving picture and ne farm
tractor. In the old days OF honest sweat by man and
beast, not much was heard about some things that now
worry the world. There was plenty TO eat and plenty
to wear; and the simple life was the rule.
Man was made to toll. When he quits and goes to
fighting. as he did in 1914. there will be a scarcity OF
food and Of everything else. and it takes time. even after
he goes back to work. to restore the equilibrium When

ONE WAR AT A TIME.

The treasury department has announced that the to.
tai expenditures of the United States for the one year
and seven months of our participation in the world war
were $3017700o.0o0. And yet there are those who would
plunge this country into an international alliance that
would call for participation in troubles now boiling and
brewing in every corner Of Europe. Is not the fact that
the public debt has been increased by one war from ST.
2S%2,000.000 in April. 1917 TO $25.4 $4,000. 900 today enough
to make every American citizen stop and ask. Are
further European alliances worth the tremendous debt
which must necessarily be added to an already over
burdened taxpaying people?"

COLD STORAGE AIDS PROFILE ER1NG.

The part cold storage plays in keeping up the cost
of living is pretty well understood by the public, which
has been gouged for a long time by the manipulators and
spectators who use these facilities for checking the
normal distribution of goods.
If the spectators can put away large quantities Of
food in storage and let il out only at their own prices, it
does not matter much whether production IS large or
small.
The bureau of markets warehouse report on hold
ings Of butter and eggs. for instance. shows enormous
holdings of these products and a big increase in sup
plies over last year. yet prices are sharply higher than
a year ago. Apparently the operation of the law of sup
MY and demand is being seriously in%terfered with in this
case.
With this increase In supplies It would be natural
to suppose that there would be lower prices. Ordinar
lily. the larger the supply. the lower the price OF a pro-
duct. But not so when the. cold storage ~prohteers are
in charge. Instead Of lower prices. creamery butter on
the Chicago market is quoted az about 10 cents a pound
higher than a year ago and eggs four to five cents higher
In its fight on the high cost of living the government
should train its guns upon the cold storage system. and
readjust it 50 that facilities designed as a blessing to the
people are not used as a means Of exploiting them.

Cost approximately eleven million
dollars and its activities justify the

The first troops arrived August 30,
1917, and as no buildings were ready
they were quartered under canvas on
the old race track about mile north
of the camp. The first big troop
movement occurred December Z, 1917,
when part of the Forty-first Division
arrived and month later embarked
and went "Over There" From that
time the movement over seas was a
steady stream of thoroughly equipped
American soldiers. Not all have re-
