GAMERS SAY 1920 FOOD
PRICES WILL BE HIGHER
Delegates in Convention Blame
Lack of Production, Extravaganza
and Inflated Currency.

CLEVELAND, Ohio. January. 81
Higher food prices for 1920 were pre-
dicted today by delegates to the joint
convention of the National Gamers
Association, the Canning Machinery
and Supplies Association and the Ma
tional Canned Foods and Dried Fruit
Brokers' Association.
1.-The Gamers have honestly and ear
nestly striven to reduce the cost of
production" Frank Gorrell of Wash
ington, secretary of the Gamers AS
ISOLATION. declared in reviewing the
work toward more wholesome foods
in the association laboratories, but
the year 1920 faces them with prob
able price increases over those of 1919.
Economic solvency compelS the indus
try to recognize these conditions"
Lack of production. inflated curren-
cy and riotous extravaganza of the
newly rich were blamed for the high
cost of living.
1t is grave mistake to believe
that Army supplies thrown on the
market will reduce the cost of living,
H. A. n. Daily of Philadelphia, pres
dent of the Canned Foods and Bro
kers' Association, declared.
Extravaganza OF Rich.
Criticism of the extravaganza of
the "war-made rich" was made by
J. Harry Covington of Washington,
D. c.. advisory counsel of the Gamers
Association.
ut is ridiculous to talk of a return
to the old days before the war" Mr..
Covington said, speaking of labor I'M
rest. 1--WE are on a vertable joyride
of extravaganza which, now that less
is being produced, is far more danger
Gus than if production were normal.
We have blaZed the way for extrava
gance not known since the days of
Babylon"
Mr. Covington pointed to the sum
spent on platinum wrist watches, eX-
orbitant priced apparel and jewelry as
an example of the disease affecting
the people of the nation.
we cannot continue this thing
without reaping a damning harvest"
he continued. THE census now being
taken will shock the people when it
reveals the number of persons who
have been taken from production and
set to the task of regulation of their
fellow men. There are too many gov
eminent industrial commissions. 1t is
high time for business men to regu-
late themselves.

wise. they are losers moro than ever.
Here again the married men natural
" bear the brunt. They probably are
the purchasers of nne-tenths of the
homes sold in Washington. In view of
these greater obligations assumed by
married men, who are heads of families
particularly hurdenSomn under pres mt
conditions, one cannot but believe. that
in the reimbursement of Salaries special
considerati ton will be given them.
Such action would certainly meet the
approval of all concerned and not mill
tate against the interests of the single
employees in the government. The lat
ter cc'ibates might then look forward
with more cheerful prospects on the
day when al! are wont to change their
single state for happier and hoiier
existence.
Surely the American government can
and viii pay salaries appropriate for the
married man--and not limit her ON
pioNes to single workers alone for the
paltfy reason of lssser salary REQUIRED.

CHICAGO, January 27.-The Illinois
women's fair-price commission, which
distributed $4,000 blank complaint"
cards. received only ten replies from
women who believed they were vic
Tins of profiteers, Mrs. Joseph T.
Bowen, head of the commission. an
nounced today. Twenty cards bear
ing vague Information and charges
were returned to the United States
district attorneys office. One card
carried a long complaint about the
price Of humming birds and another
protested against profiteering in
skunks.
There are three reasons 1 can
think of for this poor response to the
complaint campaign" Mrs Bowen
said. First, public resentment over
high prices may have been overesti-
mated. Second, people who believe
their dealer is gouging them would
rather nay the excess than run the
risk of being called as a witness in
a court prosecution. Third, dealers
have threatened that informants will
be blacklisted and repaid for turning
in complaints by having their serv
ice and credit cut down." -

Alberto Salvl's Handling Of

Alberto salvi, the harpist, was lis
tened to by an attentive and enthu-
sisatio audience in the tabernacle last
night. He had arranged an interest
Ing and attractive program and the
manner in which he presented II calls
for warm and sincere commentator.
The tone he won from his harp was
soft, smooth and ingratiating. His
playing afforded both enjoyment and
satisfaction to his auditors.
"AleRrO from G minor Concerto" by
Alvars, opened the program. This num-
Dor was followed by "To Spring." by
Grieg- Salvi 1t was well received. One
could hear brooks babbling and birds
singing their first songs OF spring. Mr..
Salvi handled this selection with serene
loneliness and gentle beauty.
'Danse des Sylphs" by Posse. showed
tho harpist's technique to great adVan-
tage, and in the latter part Of the com
position his smooth and delicate runs
were marvels OF classic purity.
Two compositions by Salvi, Valse
Brllante and IAN Italian Serenade,"
were enthusiastically applauded by the
audience. one OF tho most charming
and delightful numbers on the program
was Tedeskl's Music Box" The Sc
lection abounded in originality. The
musicians Interpretation OF this piece
brought to the audience a new under
standing of the language OF the harp.

From Mexico to Ind.
Borne upon each rustling breeze,
And carried by the wind.
