LIBERTY LOAN BONDS

The fact that 50 many government war time
Liberty Loan bonds have been placed on the
market has brought the price of these securi
les to low level.
It Is known that large per cent of the pro-
leeds of these bond sales has been used in spec
ulatlve and non-essential investments
We believe that in the very near future the
market price of these bonds will advance.
And we therefore would advise you to hold
TO these good government securities.

GERMANY AMI THE LEAGUE.

Germany has served some form Of
notice on the League OF Nations. the
assembly Of which is now in session
at Geneva, that she will not consider
herself bound by the clause Of the
Versailles treaty by which she agrees
to surrender her colonies to the Al
lies. The reason which she advances
is that when she accepted this con-,
tract she understood that she was to
be admitted to membership in the
League, and thus tothave s,=xoice in
the allotment of mandatsE over these
colonies. She has not been admitted,
therefore she %'repudiates the colonial
part of the contract.
It would be interesting to learn
whether Germany considers herself
bound by any Of the provisions Of
the treaty, the other powers haying.
as she alleges. failed to keep faith
with her. The duty Of framing most
of the regulations intended for carry
ing the raty into effect is vested in
the League. Germany has not been
admitted to membership as she ex-
pected. Therefore she will repudiate
the whole treaty. It requires much
less skill than German logicians have
shown in reaching desired conclusions
from invented premises to dispose Of
the whole subject in this manner.
The treaty which Germany signed
and ratified declares. among other
things:
Germany renounces in favor
of the principal Allied and Asso-
ciated powers all her rights and
titles owe her overseas posses
sions.
The article in the League covenant
decalres r specifically that such
colonies and territories as those
formerly controlled by Germany
shall be administered in such n
as the League shall provide, such
control being intended to promote the
well-being> and development of such
peoples. There is nothing said about
governing them in the interest Of
Germany. all Of whose rights are sur
rendered.
Provision is made for the admis-
sion OF new members to the League.
Such admission is, conditioned on the
approval Of two-thirds Of the assemb-
,ly, provided that it shall give effect
i've guarantees of it's sincere intention
to observe its international obliga-
tons" and 50 forth. Germany seems
determined to give evidence at every
opportunity to dodge jts international
obligations. y
The present attitude Of the German
government, if it's protest has been
anything like correctly reported. is a
demonstration Of its continued unfit
ness for membership in a works asso-
citation.

BUYING AND SELLING.
Men buy property because tn

Men buy property because they
want to use it themselves, because
they desire a permanent investment
from which they may derive salts
factory earnings, and because they
wish to sell again at advanced prices.
In periods of price fluctuation it is
dificult to know when to buy and
when to sell. Purchases for use must
be governed by individual and imme-
date needs. Purchases for invest
ment and speculation are governed by
the judgment Of the individual as to
the future trend of prices.
Duying the past few years the mar
ket has been e~mphatically O sellers
market. Prices were high and prop
erty of all kinds was in demand. For
some time it has been evident that
the owner who did not need to re-
place his property soon might rea-
sonably expect to benefit by selling.
he could obtain a high price, and
could. wait. for replacement for the
era of lower prices which was sure to

Of this sort Of liquidation. and it has
contributed it's share to the break in
prices.
A good many people are beginning
to ask themselves If we have not
reached a good time to buy. And
not a few are answering the question
in the affirmative. There is no rea-
son to suppose that the process of
price reduction has reached it's limit
in all lines, or nearly all. There are
still commodities which are dispro-
portionatey high. and these articles
must, sooner or later, reach a basis
comparable with that of other prop
erty. It may be that the whole level
OF prices is to be yet further scaled
down. But here and there are evil
Idences that individuals who were
quietly letting go Of property a year
ago arc beginning quietly to pick up
property again. The movement is not
heavy or general. But that there, is
such a movement at all may be re-
Earded as significant.

PROOF OF THE UpDn

The best illustration that we have
seen OF the character of the present
trend of prices as it affects the av-
erasc individual is given in the adj
verttsement OF the Colton-wilder
Grocery company which had its first
publication in The Herald on satur
day morning. At the head Of that
advertisement is given a miscellan-
eous list Of IS grocery items, all Of
them In common use. with the high
est prices at which those items were
sold by the advertiser during 1920
and the prices charged for the same
items on the day Of publication.
We venture to say that the COM
parison will surprise most readers.
Everyone knows that prices are go
ing down" Few OF us realize how
much prices have actually gone down.
Here we have the evidence presented
in concrete form. /?
For a comparison of tins the read
er is referred to the advertisement
itself. 1t will be found that each item
Is an article of ordinary consumption,
and that in each case it can be bought
at a very decided reduction from the
top figure Of the, present year. A
reduction Of a few cents on a can or
package of a given commodity does
not seem to amount to much. But
when those reductions extend through
the entire range Of purchases, the to-
tai . something.
n list presented In this advertise
mem represents just about such a
bill of goods - might be bought at
one time by any housewife who was
sorting up" for a few weeks. At
n prices formerly prevailing, the bill
would have amounted to $2s.2s. To-
days price for identically the same
goods is $685.. The reduction
amounts to $11.71. or just a tribe
over 40 per cent of the former price.
It will be observed that in the list
are two articles which bulk largely
in h totals, and also in the price
decline. These are flour and pota-
toes. Flour has dropped from 1926
1850 0AA pOLdtOG8 from
$500 to 800 per bushel. The de-
cline in Hour is Just about in keeping
with the decline in wheat. The pota-
to situation has been abnormal. and
the decline is dispr6portionate. The
consumer who finds that he can ave
$l1.71 on a bill Of goods which orm-
serly cos him 1886 is not likely to
be very critical as to causes. He
must have the goods. and he is xlad
to save the money. But in order to
convince himself that the saving Is
not unduly Influenced by these y
items, let the reader eliminate them
from the table. He will md that
the remaining 1s items would have
cost him $15.01, whereas he q now
buy them for $3.50. This reprssents
9 saving Of 1921. or q reduction Of
- PEI cent from the original price.
II will be observed. too, that All OF
these 1s articles. with the single ex-
caption Of beans. have passed through
several processes Of manufacture be-
fore reaching tfeir Anal form, ana in
several Of them the manufacturing
cost greatly exceeds the cost 81 .he
raw material.
