Why Cold Storage and All
Food Prices Are High
tFrom the Ne W York Sum- }

There may be, probably there is, ex-
cited misconception Of the food IN
American storage. Big fgures are rep
resented in S6,0OO,OO0 pounds Of beei
held bv Chicago packers; likewise IN
7OOOOO00 hounds OF pork. But for
nopulation Of 100000 within our
avn boundaries neither the one guam
tltv nor the other nor both put to-
gether, representing a per capita slo,s
age Of one and half pounds wouiu
20 very far In the same way o'VVo'-
600 pounds Of butter is not much more
than a per capita ounce
Nevertheless. Chicago, though by far
the greatest and most important, is
not the only storage centre. further-
more. IL Is a disagreeable fact that the
United states government took away
from the American people hundreds oi
millions Of dollars Of food products for
war purposes and although the war
has been over for three-quarters or
wear the government still holds large
quantities Of such food away rom Ille
public. o., ,ho
American people and still has the gov
ernment ought to give back 10 ihe
American people when prices are 80
high. for whatever reason, that there
are tens OF thousands OF American
families which don't feel they can ar
ford 10 eat the meat they need don't
feel thew can afford 10 eat the butter
thew need don't feel they can afford
TO eat their daily bread at the prices
demanded for it.
But the United states government IS
responsible for more than the army
food which il took away from them ana
still carries in its supplies. The United
States government, in TRUTH is respon-
sible for more than the pork OF the
packers. the beef Of the packers, the
butter Of the packers, the eggs Of the
hackers in cold storage The United
states government is responsible for
the inordinate prices of all food sup
nlies, in storage or out Of storage.
while the American people, wanting
more food than they are consuming
refuse to go to market for it at present
prices.
Corn, which Is the most important
factor in the price OF beef, Of mutton,
Of pork, Of poultry, OF eggs OF milk
OF butter and Of cheese, isn't in the
nelgnDofuOou OF - busuel uSoauo0
there is a scarcity Of corn. There IS
a prodigious crop Of corn either ready
or ripening for the granaries Of the
nation. IL isn't at 50 a bushel because
there is a shortage Of wheat There
is now in full promise the greatest
wheat crop surplus by millions and
millions of bushels that this country
ever knew.
Corn is at 50 a bushel. and therefore
beef and pork and poultry and butter
and eggs are yet high, because the
United states government in a year OF
superabundance Of wheat fixes the
price to the American consumer on a
farm basis Of 1926 a bushel

CONCRETE VS.. MACADAM.

rTERE is a news item from the capital OF New York
III that should be OF interest Delaware roadbuders
to Deawareans who have 10 pay for the roads built
and maintained:
ALBANY. July 2o-That the state has been wasting
money for years building roads Of various types other
than concrete stated yesterday by Highway Commits
soner Frederick stuart Greene who showed by records
of his department that eghtyone miles Of highways built
in eighteen different counties cost s955S6 and in seven
years since their completion in 1912 S702s7299 has been
spent in maintaining them.
In Wayne county road 3s7 miles long cost s265i5O9;
The maintenance charge IN seven years was s37062tS
The waterbound macadam road Is thing OF the past
and the penetration road little BETTER, said Commits
sloner Green today. "The construction OF card board
roads bound 20 lead the State into serious financial
barrassment During my term Of Office shall build only
roads Of the most improved type.

roads cost s9ii mile year TO maintain
New York State proposes 10 get the greatest mileage

with excessive maintenance charges and will stand the

ENLISTED MEN PROTEST

AGAINST SLUR.
From the Philadelphia Record.
Editor OF The Record
This letter is written to you by a
number OF the students OF the Amer
lean School Detachment at the Uni
versiiy OF Montpelier. Herault, France
as a protest against the language used
by a member Of this detachment in re-
ferring TO the enlisted men in the
army By the grace OF God and A
grave mistake in Washington he Is
labeled Major James Ralston Wells,
Medical Department United States
Army. Fortieth and Brown streets
Philadelphia, Pa.
The members OF this detachment
were assigned here because they were
college men, and brain power was the
only "open sesame" to these universi-
ties: yet this Major Il use his army
title. as ! think too much Of the word
doctor to apply IL to HIM stated in
the presence OF a number OF the mem
bers Of this detachment that he con
sidered himself so far superior TO an
enlisted man that he would be dis
graced for life should he even deien
10 walk down the street with one, let
alone associate with one"
Now. there are quite a number Of
Philadelphians here and we consider
it a disgrace 20 the fair name Of Phil
adelphia that such a so-oalled man
should claim for his residence the
birthplace Of the Declaration Of lnde-
pendence which states that "All men
are created equal"
We desire the publication Of this
letter. so that our friends in old Phil

sions as TO Major James Ralston Wells.
