Palmer Announces Cost of Liv.
ing Is Now Under Govern
ment Control.
PROGRAM IS OUTLINED
Earnest Cooperation of Honest
People Generally of Nation
Is Sought in Plan.

Washington, Dec. 22-Expectation
\ of a decline in retail food prices be-
ginning between January 1st and
March 1st was expressed tonight by
Attorney General Palmer in a state
ment summing up the efforts of the
government to date in forcing down
the cost of living.
The cost Of living is already under
control and can be reduced if every
one who produces will produce his ut
most, if those who buy and consume
will save and eliminate extravaganza,
Ii all honest people will join the de-
partment of justice in stamping out
profiteering and boarding, Palmer
laid.
Explaining the downward trend of
first two months Of the year, Palmer
aid II was the hope of the govern
ment that this trend would be ac-
eeIerated this year by the campaign
Initiated by the government which is
Just now getting well underway" He
declared prices were practically sta
hOnary since August, and the pre-
yaIing profits of clothing had been re-
duced five to fifty per cent. He said
119 prosecutions had been instituted
since penalties were added to the
Lever act October %.
The statement, issued with the au-
thorization of government officials
associated with the attorney general in
the campaign to force down living
costs, Including Director General
Hines, is considered in some quar-
ters to be a summary of the govern
ment's position in the face Of recently
renewed demands of railroad work
ers for an increase in pay.
Washington, Dec. 22.-The National
Retail Clothing Dealers association re-
Gently established their pre-war
nounced, and appointed committees to
run down profiteers within their

Retail Shoe Dealers association ap-
pointed an executive committee to
confer for the purpose Of establishing
a similar rule. He said the National
Retail Drygoods association also is CO.
operating.

High. Lights Of Speech
By President Friday

President Wilson, in his address
at st. Louis Friday, made the follow
ing statements. among others. In re-
gard to the peace treaty:
Guard Weak.
The treaty of peace with Germany
Is charter and constitution Of new
system for the world, and that new
system Is based upon an absolute re-
versal of the principles of the old
system. The essential object Of that
treaty Is to establish the independence
and protect the integrity of the weak
peoples Of the world. 1t is our busi-
ness to prevent war, and II we don't
take care of the weak nations of the
world there will be war
"Qultters."
These gentlemen (the opposition
senators, etc. assume the role of be-
ing very practical men, and they say
we don't want to get into war to
protect every little nation in the
world. Very well. let them show me
how they will keep out Of war by
not protecting them. Let them show
me how they will prove that having
gone into an enterprise, they are not
absolute contemplate cutters If they
don't see the game through.
Commerce.
humbly ask leave here to appoint a
member (of the PREPARATION commits
stony to look after our interests, and
I was rebuked for it. l am looking
after the industrial interests of the
United States; I would like to see the
other men who are. They are forget
ting the industrial interests and they
are doing things that will cut US
off and our trade off from the normal
channels, because the reparations
commission can determine what Ger
many buys, where Germany buys and
how much Germany buys.
Arbitration.
The treaty Of peace is based upon
the protection Of the weak against
the strong, and there Is only one force
that can protect the weak against the
strong, and that is the universal con-
cert OF the strength Of mankind, and
that Is the league of nations. But
beg that you will not conceive of the
league of nations as combination OF
the world for war, for that is exactly
what 1t is not; it Is a combination OF
the world for arbitration and discus
sion.
Shantunq.
1t is all very we'll to talk about
standing by China, but how are you
standing by China when you withdraw
from the only arrangements by which
China can be assisted. If you are Chi
mas friend, then don't go into the
council where you can act as China's
friend! If you are China's friend, then
put her into a. position where even the
concessions which have been made
need not be carried out! If you are
China's friend, scuttle and run!
