Grand total

Thus does the Court, in rolling nu-
merals, pronounce, but ere a single
clap can be heard in the listening
world, behold!-the Department of
Labor, like Lochinvar out of the
West, comes galloping to the center
OF the stage, grabs all the decisions,
budgets, and data, and comparing
them with the cost of things for the
year 1914 to 1919 - during a good
part of which the case of Mildred has
been argued up and down the stage
declares in stentorian tones, awaken
ing the very echoes, "These amounts
are far from commensurate with the
increases which have taken place in
the cost of these necessities during
the last five years. b. Bah!"
1t is an anticlimax, to be sure,
grumbles the world, and no good
Grand Opera should have an anti
climax. Well, then, call it a Punch
and Judy show. But Mildred, who
pulled the strings! Well where
is she?

Federal Law Chief
DOdges SeditiOn Bill

Washington The storm raised
against the Stirling Graham sedition
bill has driven Attorney General
Palmer to the cyclone cellar, and that
official now declares he never did
favor this bill
With the attorney general getting
out from under, the men in charge Of
the bill say he has an attack of
"cold feet" but the attorney general
counters with the claim that he al
ways favored a sedition bill now pend
ing in congress, and introduced by
Mr.. Davey, of Ohio.
The Davey bill makes no reference
to a press censor. 1t is not as elabor-
ate as the Stirling Graham bill, but
a federal judge is given ample power
under it's provisions to read into the
law any views he may have on strikes,
which can be easily held to be "sedi-
tious."
The Davey bill makes it illegal to
change any law of the government or
to "delay the execution of any law of
the United States" This latter provi-
sion would put injunction judges in
clover as they always insist that their
edicts are the claw" of the land.
The house committee in charge Of
the Stirling Graham bill was informed
that Attorney General Palmer was
"too busy" to appear before it. 1t
was then that the "cold feet" charge
was made.
1t is limited that if the attorney
general has "cold feet" the same
charge can be made against certain
lawmakers. The danger now is that
a modified bill may be passed, with
the understanding that federal judges
will supply the "teeth."

commissioner, "but a total of S495 go

mocracy in which all things depend

The federal educator says this es-
innate, which is based on the most
reliable figures available, includes
public and private education, from
the kindergarten through the college,
university and technical schools and
for all kinds of special schools, as
schools for the deaf, the blind, the
feeble-minded, orphanage, CONNER
cial and business school, schools of
music and art, and whatever else,
including expenditures for the pay
of teachers, for administration, for
lands and buildings and equipment,
for their up-keep, for heat and light
and water for school houses, and for
all other purposes.

Cant Strike" Law
Is Passed in Kansas

Topeka, Kan. - The centuries-old
scheme of setting wages by law and
thowing strikers in Jail has been re-
vived by the state Legislature, and
the court of industrial relations is
the result.
Governor Allen smashed the recent
miners strike, or, rather, his pub
licity agents claim he did. He re-
cruited college boys and older men
to work in the strip mines and pro-
duced some coal at cost to the tax
payers Of about $100 ton. The gov
ernor then resolved to settle the
capitalists laborers' problem and
called special session of the Kansas
Legislature.
Under the new act the governor
appoints three members of the court.
Special inspectors, commissioners, in
vestigators, engineers and other
specialists have been provided for.
Transportation and all production
that is affected with the public in
terest comes under the scope of the
law. Either side to a dispute may
bring in a complaint and compel an
investigation and action by the court.
Disputes in other than food, fuel,
clothing and transportation indus
tries may be submitted to the court
by joint agreement between the
parties directly involved.
Section 8 of the act provides:
''It is hereby declared necessary
for the promotion of the general well
fare that workers engaged in any of
said industries, employments, utilities
or common carriers shall receive at
all times fair wage and have health
full and moral surroundings, while en-
gagged in such labor; and that capital
invested therein shall receive at all
times fair rate of return to the
owners thereof"

Wants Solution
CUMMINS RAIL BILL CAUGHT IN
DEADLOCK
Can't Strike Clause and Dividend
Guaranteeing Provisions Exite OPP
pOsitiOn-SOlOns Willing to
Let the Sleeping Dog Lie

Washington The Cummins and
Esch railroad bills, passed by the
senate and house respectively several
weeks ago, are in conference, with
the conferees deadlocked.
The more this legislation is dis
cussed by the public the stronger The
opposition grows, and it is whispered
that in view of the fall elections,
some senators and congressman would
lose little sleep if the bills never get
out of conference.
Strong differences center around the
Cummins bill, with its "can't-stliEe"
provision and the section guarantee
ing dividends to railroad owners. The
intent of the labor section is under
stood by the workers, and as the
average congressman has troubles
enough now, he is not willing to take
on excess baggage.
The guarantee is beginning to in
terest shippers and business men,
and public officials who have studied
the railroad problem, declare that it
will be necessary to raise fire ght
rates to pay the guarantee. The esri-
mated increase ranges from 25 to 40
per cent. Director General of Rail
roads Hines says this will in ease
living costs $4,00O,O00,000 year.
To add to the tangle, the president
has announced that he will order the
railroads returned on March l, and
state officials declare that the pend
ing legislation invades the rights of
the states, while the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, the railroad brother
hoods and farmers are insisting that
the government hold the roads for @t
least two yeasr that test may be
made of government operation under
normal conditions.
Far-seeing advocates of an inn
mediate return of the roads are
placed between two fires. 1t the
roads are returned now rates will
have to be raised. One does not have
to be prophet to say that storms
of protest will also be raised. And
the government ownership adVo"?'1
will smile. If the private ownership
advocates agree to a two years eX-
tension, they fear government me-
ship advocates will not cease their
propaganda.
Under the conditions, the 10 cor
ferees in charge of the two railroad
bills will be grateful for a solution
Of their troubles

Still Going Up
RETAIL PRICE FOR FOOD NOT
BEING LOWERED
Last December Showed Highest Ever
Reached in United States-A Few
Comparisons in Past and
Present Charges

Washington - The United States
bureau of labor statistics reports
that claims of lower food prices are
not sustained by it's statistics.
The bureaus figures show that the
retail cost of 22 articles of food in
December was the highest ever at
tanned, being 2.6 per cent higher
than in November, per cent higher
than in December, 1918, and SO pei

141 per cent and granulated sugar,
1863 per cent. In the remaining ar
ticles in list of "a food comn,odi-
ties, an increase of so per cent or
over is noted. The two ex options
are tea, which increased 81 pc. cent,
and plate beef, which incr .ased AZ
per cent.
Based on the average price for the
year 1913 as 100, the retail price in
deX number for % articles of food
for the United States was 1872 for last
November and 1877 for December.
During the year period from De-
cember, 1918, to December, 1919, the
three cities showing the greatest in
crease in average family expenditure
for 22 articles of food We're: Mime
apolis, ID per cent; Omaha, IL per
cert, and Mobile, 10 per cent.
As compared with the ave are ex-
pcnditure in the year 1913, the fol-
lowing cities showed an inc .easa in
tn" family expenditure of 100 per
cent and over: Richmond and Provi-
dence, 100 per cent each; Buffalo, 1O1
per cent; Atlanta, 102 per cent; Nil-
Walkee and Washington, 1O3 per cent
each; st. Louis, 1O4 per cent; Chal les-
ton, Memphis and Minneapolis. 1O5
