HIGH PRICES DUE BACK,
PREDICTS FARM EXPERT

CHICAGO. Dec. 1.-Prediction Of
4 return to high prices unless farm
ers are given a reasonable" price
for their products was made here
today by Fred w. Davis, commits
sioner of agriculture of Texas, in
a speech before national commits
sioners Of departments of agricul-
ture.
IF present conditions Of working
at a loss continue on the farms OF
the nation, then there will be en-
forced restriction of production"
said Davis. This will certainly
bring US back to a new level Of
high prices.
'In many sections of the South
the cotton planters have found it
will cost them $40 more a bale to
pick and pack cotton than they will
get for it at present market prices"
Davis said.

Consoidated Relief Worse.

TOR the first time all the organizations of
r every Kind for European relief have come to-
gether and have pooled their efforts. The
magnitude of this result has not yet been appreei-
ated by the people of this country. 1t is the most
significant preliminary of the organization for the
relief of the children of Europe.
1t IS not a small matter for an organization
which feels that it is mnistering to great need to
surrender its individually. When many such con-
sent to do this, it shows both unselhsh breadth
OF vision and the overpowering appeal of some
other single objective
In this instance it was recognized that while
many other things should be done, they were all
secondary to this one demand; that the children of
these countries of Europe must be kept alive if the
countries themselves were to survive. 1t is useless
to provide for the sick, if by undertaking and ac-
tusi starvation the numbers of the sick are to be
multiplied be- ond any possibility of proper care.
1t IS equally useless to attempt to provide any
other form of welfare agencies starvation is to so
undermine people that there can be no response
to any such appeal So it was that all of these
various very helpful sincerely conceived and faith
fully administered relief bodies have agreed to sus-
pend their operation and merge into this one great
European Relief Council for feeding 35oo,ooo chill
dren that must otherwise starve
1t is to this single agency with this single pur-
pose that the people of this country asked
10 sr'e 1niS Is not only tne DUTY ana oohgation OF
the United States, but is its great privilege. 1t will
cost no more than the giving up of few
luxuries, while it will impant in every child heart
great love of this people 1t will implant like
affection in the hearts of parents.
Can any think that this generation when it
becomes the controlling power In Poland the Baltic
states, the Balkan countries, in Austria and too in
Germany, will have any but great admiration and
affection for our own people? Can any believe
they will ever forget? 1t is this Americans will ac-
eomplish beyond doing the most stupendous hu-
,manitarian act ever undertaken, when they send
their contributions TO the Literary Digest, which
has undertaken to act practically, as the councils
treasurer.

Put Them to Work.

Where to send the remnant of Wrangels army
is vexing Europe. Some of our good friends over
there would like to place them where they would
be handy for sighting force, here, there or
the other place, the demand might come. The
outlook is for plenty of wars in the future with
dearth of willing to fight to the world for
democracy and its resources for those who have
use for their added wealth
But country the disturbed areas, which
broad, is inclined to harbor this horde of ref
ugees from the Crimea that would form this poten-
tial army. These countries are not anxious to
be used sort of vulture's roost for of thou
sands with 10 intention Of engaging in productive
industry.
Why not send them to Of the former Ger
man colonies in Africa? There is plenty of room
there, abundance of demand for development Of
labor and chance for real usefulness. Is it not
time the minds of European leaders turned in eco
nomic directions?

SPACE OCUPATION, SOLUTION
THE FOURTH DIMENSION.
be Editor. The wsshinstoa Herald

To the Editor. The Washington Hersld:
Three dimensions lead only to un-
occupied space. and We symbolize
it by the material that actually fits
1t. We have a cubic inch of salt,
and it hts a cubic inch Of space.
but when we dissolve it in water
it fills more space than it did and
it fills it as salt absolutely by any
test whatever.
Our mathematicians are willing
to concede that A times A-cube
equals A-fourth; that Y times X
cube equals X-fourth; that times
overlook that sometimes ! times l.
cube equals l-fourth, and not l.
cube. Mathematical progressions
are unit progressions in terms OF
l (one) from one dimension to the
other. We concede A-line, A
square. A-cube: why not A-fourth? !?
Are we mistaking the symbolic fg-
ure l (one) for the significant one?
Dimensional progress does not con-
Germ itself with significant figures
till we get to mensuration. Solu-
tion involves a process, water does
not, yet they look the same. Water
can be solidifed to show its length,
breadth and thickness per ruler. So
luton cannot. The salt occupies the
whole of its solvent, not a section
of it. An absolute unit has been
formed. accompanied in its true
form by a drop in temperature-a
loss which is due to loss of ex-
ponent power. Two cubes develop

Posed as Red Cross Man.

We first saw him around New
York in the later part of 1915. He
came to us ostensibly as a worker
for the German Red Cross. But his
coming soon became associated with
the calling of mysterious strikes,
the blowing up of vessels and the
destruction of munition plants en-
gagged in making supplies for the

 Many merchants couldn't buy-they had a full stomach" consequently the manufacturers welcomed us with open arms. These suits at these prices are the result. The greatest values we've been able to offer for years. We won't elaborate on the fab rics or styles-we've got a royal flush" and we're not bluffing!
