There are great many people who are sick, yet manage to do their work and drag along day after day, feeling miserable, discouraged and tired all the time. They do not know what is the matter and their physicians cannot name the disease.

million workers will be resumed ard
kept up until some agreement or a
rejection from the railroad admins
tration results. Director Hines, it
is understood, has several proposals
to submit to the workers, in view Of
the fact that the time is short before
the government must reiinquish cou-
troll of the roads. Certain it is, say
those in close touch with railroad adj
ministration affairs, the government
is not going to make any guarantees
of general wage increases; that it can

Director Hines may see way clear

Five Dollar Wheat.

The country is in need of shock
and Chairman Louis w. Hill, son Of
prophetic father, Of the Great
Northern Railway corporation, has
supplied it. He predicts SIS wheat be-
fore very long. This is matter that
comes home direct to, all the consum-
ers of wheat. The persons who can
least afford SIS wheat are the ones who
depend upon it most for basic rations.
Perhaps Mr.. Hill exaggerated the
situation in order to get the public to
thinking. He sees what is coming.
The situation is most critical. Presi-
Dental nominations and resolutions
from congress don't compare with it..

Between 1865 and 1917, so fortunate

proposition. The American citizen
needs now to be social unit and .
political unit, as we'll as an economic
