La actitud asumi5a por algunos CO.
nerciantes que, debido los precios
fijados por Ell ''Comite de Precios Eoui-
tativos'', Sc han negado expender
sus articulos, como de costumbre, ha
causado gran inquietnd entire ell pueblo
consumidor en- estes dias. Los referidos
co1nerciantes alegan que no pueden per-
der, vendiendo Ell aztcar a un precio
cue no justifica 10 que Sc pag6 por
ella al por mayor. Mum Nrosas psrsonas
de San Juan y sus barrios Sc han que
jado de esta actitud, y existen infor-
mes de que TN centro de instruction y
recreo Sc vio obligado a suspender una
fiesta debido que no encontro aziicar.
Un reporter de Ell MUNDO hablo
del asanto con don Alberto E. Lee,
comisionado de Precios Equitativos,
quien manifesto 10 siguiente: Que los
comerciantes no pueden negarse a ven-
der los comestibles, Y todo el que asi
10 hiciere, cae de lleno dentro de los
terminus de la ley federal sera pro-
cesado.
Despues Ell senior Lee explic6 que los
tribunales ejerceran mayor severidad
atn contra los s=comerciantes que come
tieren este delito, que contra los que
exigieren precios excesivos.
Un dueiio de un colmado habia con-
sultado Mr.. Lee sobre este mismo
asunto. Mr.. Lee lie advirti6 que podria
reglamentar la venta de los artfcu-
los de primera necesidad case que los
nuevos precios lie perjudicaran.. Poner
un letrero en- sitio visible del estable-
cimiento, diciendo estas parecidas pa
labras: "Nosotros hemos comprado a
tanto y vendemos Este precio por aca-
tar el acuerdo del "Comite de Pre-
clos Equitativos. Ell azdcar 60 ell ar
tlculo que fuere) solo 10 venderemos, en-
cantidades limitadas, nuestros parro-
quianos.''
Esta Ultima advertencia parece que
tiene por objeto evitar que personals
que no acostumbraban comprar en- una
tienda, vayan ella en- los actuales mo-
mentos comprar cantidades excesi-
vas de azdcar. La intenci6n del Comi-
sionado senior Lee, segin 10 que Sc des-
prende de las manifestaciones hechas
nuestro redactor, es que haya una
reparticion impartial de los comesti
bles, para satisfacer las necesidades
generates.
Probablemente hoy Sc publicara por
Ell Comisionado sefior Lee un manifesto
Official con tai prop6sito, Y entonces
todos los comerciantes sabran a que
atenerse. Y conste que solo publicamos
la impression recogida por nuestro re-
porter en- una interview que cele-

The United States Congress has APP

the American farmer S2.26 bushel for
his 1919 wheat crop, n price which Is
81 bushel more than he might
reasonably expect If American wheat
was thrown on the market to com
pete with Argentine, Australian and
Indian wheat. The American farmer
has responded to the governments
guarantee by pledging the production
of millions of bushels more wheat than
he has ever grown before, according
to officials of the United States Food
Administration Grain Corporation.
The American farmer has never been
in better financial condition, the Off
Gals say. The report of the Federal
Reserve Board shows that the 1918
farm crop added 100000 to the
wealth of the country. The corn crop
alone put $3,52s,313O0O in the farm.

HELP FINNISH THE JOB
UNCLE SAM PAYING HIS DEBTS
Governments Credit Standing High,
Because Of Rapidly Of Payment of
His obligations-Now q
Creditor Nation.

If you were asked to lend money to
a private citizen you would ask:
"What are this mans prospects? Is
his business showing ga satisfactory
growth? Is he paying off his debts
and piling up a surplus"
When you are asked to lend your
money to Uncle Sam you can safely
ask the same questions. The Ameri-
can government soon will ask for an
other great loan. Therefore. now is
the time to satisfy yourself that Uncle
Gam will be an Al debtor.
The first thing that will impress
you, when you come to investigate the
old gentleman's credit standing, is the
rapidity with which he has been pay
ing off his debts and becoming himself
a creditor. In 1914, when the war
broke out, the nation owed four billion
dollars ($4,O0O,OO0,00O abroad and
had to pay interest on that amount
every year.
Now all but about One-fOnrth of this
big debt has been paid off, and the
government of the United States has
lent abroad total Of ten billion dol
lars ($l0,000,0 O0000). Instead of pay
ing interest TO Europe today, Uncle
Sam is now in position to ask and
receive from Europe a~tOtal of at least
five hundred million dollars (S500,000,-
000) a year in interest. That sum from
across the wster each year will pay
more than half the interest the govern
ment will owe to its people on all the
Liberty bond issues, including the
fifth.
Uncle Sam certainly can show a
good set Of books. HIS credit is Al

Z A little child's mind is an empty
cup right side up. He has lief to NIL
it who gets there first with the NIL
ing. So the parents have this frst
right exclusively, nor do they need
TO rush to claim the right. The cup
is exclusively theirs for years. What
the parents says either casually or
.didactically, what he expresses by
his face, his tone Of voice, his tenn
per, his daily habit, drops directly
into that cup and stays; for the cup
grows as the contents increases and
the child cannot upset or spill it.
Ut does not take child to learn that
what father and mother think, is TIE
most important thing in the world.
The father who misses the purpose
ly molding touch on his boy, has
himself chiefly to blame. If he is not
imbued with the idea that his great
est concern is his boy and not his
business, he stands chance to lose
the boy. The billion dollar era usher
ed in by the war may have as its
standard the value of a dollar or the
value of a man, according as the
world profits by the lesson OF the
war He who has lost clean, big
.souled boy in the. war, well knows
shat a man is larger than billion
dollars. But some, of us who nave
our sons safely back, may have mis-
aed the great sson.-Minneapolis

thought they knew that Germany
would stand out for many months.
Now then, to suppose case. II
some one had come to you on October
/ with a proposition to end the war
within six weeks by a complete and
overwhelming victory on condition that
you would subscribe literally for Vic
tory bonds in the spring Of 1919, you
would have replied as follows:
"Say, end the war this fall and stop
the killing and manning of our boys,
and put the kaiser out of business and
compel Germany to accept our terms
and let the American soldiers begin to
head for home, and I'll pledge my last
dollar for the loan that Is needed to
clean up expenses So. ..
That's how you felt on October J.,
1913, and now that all the miracles
have come to pass, are you going to
be grateful or forgetful? nc ....
You are now asked to help finance
(by merely lending on favorable, terms
and not giying) the final and gigantic
expenditures which brought victory
months ahead of the schedule, ...
If we had lost the war, what would
you be paying this spring land to
whom? How's your memory? Did you
feel certain, just year ago. today,
that Germany could be prevented from
debating terms to the whole world?
How about a loyal parent. who re-
fuses TO pay doctor bill because the
child gets well instead of dying?
When you tackle big job, do you
stick to the finish, or do you go fishing
and permit some more dependable
man to come in and put on the roof
and climney? .
Do you experience symptoms Of
morality only when the doctor is seat
ed at the bedside?
When you start to go somewhere,
do you travel four-iifths of the way
ard then flop by the wayside?
Can you be patriotic when the band
Is not playing?

don't queer your war record at the
eleventh hour by being a gutter.

"lF" OR SURPRISING"
BY GEORGE ABE.

On October /, 1913, you. being Il
wise man and having read with care
the opinions of military experts, knew:
/. That the great war was going to
last until far INTO the summer of 1919.
.. That the casualties among the
American soldiers would be increasing
~ heavy up to the final moment Of
fighting.
3. That, as a result Of the growing
magnitude of the world struggle, tn
government of the United States would
call upon us for at least three huge
bond subscriptions during 1919.
If you believed otherwise you were
in the minority, for the cabinets of all
the nations united against Germany,
and the bankers, and the shipbulders,
