decreases for the 10-year period. In
the month ending August, 1912,
prices decreased g per cent, as COM
pareS with a customary increase o.
20 per cent; IN October 81 per cent
decrease as compared with a season
al decrease of Is per cent and in
November 20 per cent decrease as
compared with 3.S per cent decrease
for the 10-yeap average.
Summed up, the report shows that
while prices paid the producer stead
lily declined the profiteering middle
men have boosted prices to the high
est level in history.
In Providence, few days ago, two
dealers were fired $1,000 for prof.
teering. AS a northern paper says,
with an exemplary punishment of
profiteering in every city of the
United States, the favorite indoor
sport of sandbagging the ultimate
consumer would lose most of it's pop
ularity."
The Providence case SHOWS that it
is impossible to bring the profiteer to
justice and punish him. It takes
officials with backbone to dc it, but
as these are just what we haven't
got it is likely that the long suffering
pubic will continue to suffer.

Middlemcn Profitecring.

Middiemen nave accumulated vast
proflts during the five months of the
governments campaign to reduce
prices Of necessities, and instead Of
any reduction in prices they have con-
tinued to creep up steadily, according
according to a report of two govern
ment departments issued a few days
ago.
Since the middle Of August, when
Attorney General Palmer announced
he was going after the price ,goug-
CTS" reports show that;
Prices paid farmers for principal
crops decreased from "a to 81 per
cent. each month, according to the
agriculture department, and
Prices paid by consumers increa3-
ed continuously until they reached
the highest point in history in Do
cember according to the labor dc
partment.
According to the agricultural de
partment, the level of prices paid
producers of the principal crops Of
the. farm decreased like this: "a per
cent in August; 81 per cent. in Sep
TENDER; 81 per cent. in October, and
Al per cent in November.
Part Of this is due to a seasonal
falling off in demand, agriculture de-
partment officials say. But over
1O-year period the average decreases
due to seasonal demands were only
1,2 per cent in August; per cent in
SO per cent in October,
and SO per cent in November.
Prices paid farmers for meat-pro-
ducing animals also have decreased
in the last five months in greater
than the average seasonal

Crime as "A Profession

The recent wave of crime in Chic
ago is peculiarly menacing. The
criminal type to which the world is
accustomed is the person who muir
ders or robs because he is mentally
or morally defective, or because he
has undermined his character by
debauchery. Cchicago however
seems to be infested with a new type
of lawbreaker, the man who takes UP
crime as a profession because he
thinks it will pay.
There is but one way to deal with
these dangerous criminals - they
must be convinced that they have
made serious mistake and that law
breaking is not profitable. The Chi
cago authorities seem alive to this
necessity, for in the past few days
they have made drive on the bur
glar and the footpad that has result
ed in the arrest Of no less than 412
persons.
We are going to show the crooks
they cannot live in Chicago" said J.
H. Alcock, deputy superintendent of
police. Perhaps he will be able to
convince them that after all honesty
is the best policy, and thGt if society
is to yield them living, in return
they must render ii real services.
