have the public understand that the
ending of the extortion of the pack
ers would materially reduce the cost
of living.
The books of the packing concerns
have been almost worn out by differ
ent sets of examiners paving over
them. The investigators have shown
that they sell for 100 cents that
which costs them 90 cents. The mar
gin is about 2 per cent. Can the
work be done for less? Were the
packers driven out and there was
less complete utilization of by
products, would cattle men get more
for their animals or consumers get
their meat for less?

large number of economists of

educate spend their time miseducat-

Pre-Conuention Funds
4 Discussion by Tribune Readers of the Direct
Primary and the Republican Candidates

have allowed the people to believe that
these large campaign funds were to be
used for corrupt purposes. Publishers
and editors Of these newspapers are too
we'll posted, and if they wished to play
fair with the public their columns, both
Eews and editorial, should have been
used to let their readers know that
these funds were to be used fer pub
licity and other lawful purposes.
The thousands Of dollars that Mr..
Proctor and other wealthy men contrib
uted for the sake Of helping General
Wood get the nomination were no larger
in comparison than the small amount
which l, wage Garner, contributed.
The people are hopeful Of getting Il
square deal this year from the Old Guard
and practical politicians, and feel that
the delegates are going to vote accord
ing to the wishes of their constituents
and make the nominee Major General
Leonard Wood.

William jennings Bryan has never

light under bushel. He never wnits
to be called and can always be de-
pended upon to do the calling. Yet
ne has an appearance of modesty and
humility that may we'll deceive the

loyal supporters ever since the famous

Asked to name an available cand;

policy Of the country and for the en-
forccment of the Volstead law, and.
third, for woman suffrage. No one is

No Patience

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: l have read with a sense of IT.
ritation, but also, must confess. a
slight feeling of amusement, The Trib-
une's labored defense Of General
Woods big campaign fund. 1t reminds
me very strongly Of the very elaborate
defense furnished by The Tribune
about q year ago for the Hog Island
crowd, who were accused of making
great fortunes at that shipyard during
the war and producing very little of
any practical value to the government.
The same trick of CLOSING over in
furious facts and magnifying the i'm
portance of favorable ones is a feature
of its arguments in both instances.
I have read The Tribune for many
years and am constantly recommending
1t to my friends who read other morn
ing papers, but l must confess my dis
appointment with its course in the
present campaign. At a time when
party harmony is essential to success,
The Tribune, by its overwhelming
anxiety to further the interests of
General Wood and it's criticisms of
rival Republican candidates, is doing
its best to invite disaster. As a Re-
publican who hopes for his party's
success, I have no patience with such
policy. F. C. WILCOX.

own needs, they could be sold here
to-day at a great advantage because
of the disparity in exchange. But
Europe hasn't the raw materials
and her industry cannot be revived
offhand. Liquidation on a large scale
can therefore hardly begin until
1923. Meanwhile the United States
will have TO prepare for liquidation
by facing the fact that a creditor
nation cannot wisely maintain poll
cies which artificiaNy hinder i'm
ports. The debtor must facilitate
exports; the creditor must facilitate
imports. We shall be obliged in the
near future to adjust our fiscal poll
cies to our new role in the world.

Danger ir, Price Cuts

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The price cutting Juror raging
al present seems to mo to hold as much
potential evil as good. II may elm.
mate for the time being exorbitant
profits at points between the manufsc
turer and consumer. But II is at vari-
ance with Bradstreet's price index. with
its slightly higher tendency, which indi-
Gates counter tendency to present
economic conditions.
What we must do in this country 10
to curtail consumption, not increase It.
These present sales are causing Wild
furry of buying In nutshell, the
condition has been this: The retailer
(such as the department. store) finds
himself well stocked up and demand
steadily decreasing because of high
prices and the effect Of the overall and
kindred economy movements and
preachments. To increase his difficulty
the retailer feels pressure from the
banks to move his stocks and licudate
his loans. pursuant TO the Federal. Re-
serve Board policy Of defaton. This
price-slashing program fills the breach,
and She public buys Ike mad
1t is clever bit of merchandising by
the retailer. Under present financial
conditions he can count himself fortu-
nate to reduce his stock materially q
or near cost. His problem was TO &c;
the public to buy, and this he has done
But what has become Of the tide Of
economy which was beginning to cons
into the U. S. A? It has smashed up
against the rocks of so-called bargains
and Is rapidly flowing out TO the ocean
Of "buy what you want" This is a
great pity, because there will be dis
appointing reaction. As long as Ger
many and Russia represent unsettled
questions and Central Europe is in tur-
moil, not even the process Of liquidat
ing the wax can fully begin, and thst
process Is the only hope Of lower eco
nomic price level To think that We
can bring about lower price level by
bounding dealers and merchants under
the Lever act or by the present price
crusade is to shut the eyes to basic
economic facts. The present condition
Of foreign exchange has operated IS al
embargo, which has been fortunate fof
domestic prices, else we would prob
ably have new high price level.
1t is we'll and good &c squeeze ou'

situation should not be lost sight Of

phia has worked hard to develop her
harbor. The city and the State Of
Pennsylvania have even appropri-
ated large sums to supplement Fed
eral appropriations for deepening
the Delaware. The dock labor stu
alton is far better there than it is
here, because so much less labor per
ton or cargo is needed.
It is no wonder that business is
drifting away from US. We need,
first Of all, a unification of the port,
In order to bring both the New York
and New Jersey sections under one
authority-competent to plan for
modernization. But the New York
New Jersey port treaty is frowned
upon by the Board Of Estimate and
Apportionment and is still held up
in the Legislature. We need to bring
the trunk lines down to the piers and
to build piers on which up-to-date
cranes can operate. The cost of
transshipment must be greatly re-
duced.
The Port of New York has fallen
years behind in facilities. It's COM
merce will decline sharply unless the
public here insists on a change of
front and interests itself not only in
the ratification of the port treaty but
in other measures of rehabilitation.

The Immortal Fact

Only the slow chisel Of time can
carve the truth of history. That
which we debate hotly and surround
with words and eagerness and doubts
and disappointment fades and is for
gotten. Some simple fact, seldom
upon our tongues and too obvious
to be discussed, is left standing
against the horizon.
The beginning of some such re-
valuation made itself felt yesterday.
There were few notable words
uttered, none-save those Of Marshal
Petain-of a rank befitting the oc-
casion. Yet in the celebration of
Memorial Day here and abroad there
was silent power that all who par
ticipated could not but feel. Tears
were nearer the surface than any
one suspected, memories more poign-
ant. The very thought Of our dead
lying in the soil of France, their
graves covered with flowers by the
hands of French women and French
children, the bugles Of their French
comrades blowing over them, stirs
the deeps Of reverence and loyalty.
Peace treaties come and 20.
Statesmen rise and fall The sacri-
tice of those who gave their lives for
us all grows with the years. On the
surface we turn to other things.
In that heart of hearts where the
great works of man are accomplished
there can be no forgetting. Our dead
in France are fact, an immortal
fact, which for generations to come
will speak to the people of Amer
lea as to the people of France and
the people Of England. Jealousies,
rivalries, misunderstanding, may
fill the air for a time. The friend
ship sealed in blood will remain. In
the beautiful words sposen by Mar
shall Petain of our dead:
"They are not resting as strangers
IN strange land, soldiers Of liberty
sent overseas at a moment when the
fate of the world was at stake and
toward whom the heart of France
turns gratefully to-day. These tombs
will be forever watched over with
the same pious care as that which our
country gives her own children.
Brothers in arms, sharers Of one
common glory, one common sacrifice,
salute you as heroes whose young
days found here the end of their
work. In acclaiming you I voice the
sentiments Of my whole country, vic
torious and forever grateful
Tragic and terrible seemed she
cutting off of our youth in their
morning of life. Yet, if achievement
is the measure Of a man, these lived
long and gloriously. Destiny seized
them, and Of their deeds created a
new world. We and our children
and their children shall come and go.
Only these dead are immortal.

Miseducators

W. Jett Lauck, who is introduced to
the public as consulting economist
for the labor organizations" says
that the cattle men Of America have
received little benefit from the rise
in meat prices, while the profits of
the packers have increased 800 to
400 per cent and now are $58,000,O 900
year.
Every one is interested in the price
of meat-all want to buy cheaper.
Butcher shops have become swear
ing places. And Economist Lauck
pretends to locate the culprit. Let's
study his figures and ascertain how
big would be the reduction if the
packers made nothing at all.
Suppose the packers suddenly be-
came perfect altruists and took moth
ing for themselves nor as income
from their investments and the sav-
ing was not grabbed by the cattle
men or wasted through less eco
nomical way Of handling business.
The countrys population is 10000

off to the extent Of SO cents a year.

The Tagging Port

The freight terminal, longshore-
mems and truckers strikes here
have only accentuated the handicaps
under which the Port of New York
suffers. Such labor difficulties may
be settled and their temporary evil
effects overcome. But New York
will continue to lose business to other
ports unless she reverses her pres
ent policy Of Indifference and begins
to create modern port facilities.
We have acted on the theory that
a harbor makes a port. We have
here one Of the most magnificent
harbors in the world, with miles of
shore front to waste. But we have
failed to make intelligent use of even
a fraction of our frontage. Other
cities, with stunted natural harbors
compared to ours, have constructed
ports far in advance Of New York as
shipping terminals.
Nature has been in one sense too
kind TO US, since it has made us over
confident and indolent. New York
has let ocean and coastwise shipping
take care Of itself. We have piers
of an antiquated model, most Of
them fit only for passenger service.
We can accommodate the luxury
passenger travel Of the big ocean
liners. But we haven't fit berths for
the far moro important freight car
riers. And every attempt in recent
years to develop the waterfront by
connecting shipping directly with
railroad lines has been obstructed
by official Interpretation or public
apathy.
New York shipping firms are now
reduced to using other Atlantic
ports-Newport News, Norfolk,
Philadelphia and Baltimore. Phila-
delphia is constructed river port,
far from the sea- Yet It's shipping
facilities have been systematically
developed, SO that they put New
York's to shame. Railroad cars run
on the vharves and the merchandise
on them Is loaded directly into ves-
sells BY machinery. Here we retain
the old. costly system Of hand labor
and of transshiprnent from railroad
