Says High Water Mark Has

Collapse Of Husi-
ness.
|RET'URN or ECONOMY

DES MONIES March 22.-Prices in
the United States have reached their
high water mark and are beginning to
decrease gradually, John Burke,
treasurer Of the United States. who
spent Saturday in Des M0ines, said.
They must decrease by degrees,
however, Mr.. Burke warned, and
there must be return to economy
and productions before prices are
normal. 1 a
'"The same conditions are causing
high prices now which cause high
prices after every war" Mr.. Burke
said. "The demand is unequalled and
the proportion Of non-producing city
residents is exceptionally large.
THE financial situation in the
country is splendid, but there's NO
telling how long the situation viii
continue healthy, unless production
makes a big spurt."
Mr.. Burke declined to make a
statement regarding the agitation for
revision Of the taxation system now
in vogue in the United States. but
admitted that the consumer is pay
ing the dealers excess profits tax.
Warning on the one hand against
extravaganza and speculation, and
on the other hand against clampr for
sudden drop in prices, Mr.. Burke
adressed the Des Mdnes Bankers
club and many visiting bankers at a
dinner at Hotel Fort Des Moines.
I'VE must unitedly work to move
back to normal prices gradually" he
said, because collapse in prices
would hit manufacturer, merchant
and farmer~ equally, paralyzing the
country financially"
He deplored the conducting of
financial drives by colleges and other
institutions at this time, saying that
while he is for such institutions, the
prevalence Of financial drives tends
to keep UP prices of materials and
indirectly to prevent the proy!cing
of homes for working people at
reasonable cost.
"1f everybody owned bone there
would be respect for property he
added.
AS an instance of the frenzy Of
speculation that exists he mentioned
that New York telephone girl paid
an income tax of $500.
