(EditoriaD Louis Pizitz Tells How to
 Reduce High Prices

Much is being said and written these days about how to reduce the pre- vailing high prices on all sorts of merchandise, which, of course, in- cludes wearing apparel and food. The govern ment is now carrying on a campaign with the end in view of ultimately bringing down the high cost to the people.
 In my opinion all the government may do and say will not bring about the desired effect. It rests with the people. In other words, the people themselves h o l d the whip handle, if they will only use it in the right way. Of course, as a business man and mer- chant who is in business for the purpose of mak- ing money, l do not and would not advocate a non-buying campaign. But, as I said before, this matter is entirely in the \ hands of the people. In a general way the people the public-buy mer- chandise of every sort l that can be done with out. The average citi- zen will buy an article l. and pay a high price, when by using a little thought and judgment. an article of the same sort generally, but at a lower price, could have Il been bought, and it would have answered
 every purpose.
 The retail man, I wish it understood, is not at fault, nor to blame for the high prices; but it is the manufactures, gen.
 erally of New York and other places, who is de-
 manding the exorbitant prices-the people arc
 paying-and laying the
 cause first on one thing
 and then on another.
 When the retail man
 buys an article from the
 manufacturer for sale,
 he is bound to make a
 certain profit in order
 that he may be able to
 pay his employees a fair H living wage, and at the
 same time keep in busi-
 ness.
 HI Now, as I see this question, and a way ir HI which to settle it at once and for all, let every cit izen, when he or she HI goes out to buy an ar. HI ticle,, study it thorough. HI ly, and if S25.00 is asked HI for the thing they want III just figure out carefully
 with themselves whether 
 another article of a sim HI liar kind at $15.00 ol M $20.00 will not answer HI the purpose.
 1 believe if the people MI generally will follow this l| out, all high prices vii
