FOR an early reduction or the prices
Of living necessities in tho United
Kingdom. AS president OF the board
of trade. Sir Auckland has been H.
Getting the governments fight against
The high cost of living. a task which
now falls to Sir Robert S. Horne.
Sir Auckland expects prices to fall
only when Europe has gotten back on
her feet econo nically. But even when
this happy state of affairs is reached
prices may still be about 10 per cent
higher than they were in 1914, he be-
lieves.
I'VE must forget the old price
levels, Just as we have forgotten
about the extremely low prices that
prevailed in the good old days Of
Queen Bess," Sir Auckland stated, by
way of emphasis. Until Germany
and all of Europe. including Russia
return to full production, | can see no
chance for a removal of the scarcity
which is now causing the high prices.
Urges All To Work.
LET us realize that it is useless
to talk about prices and hemoan the
high cost of living unless we are pre-
pared to act. Everybody must work
as hard as he can If he wants to get
prices down. Every factory and every
farm must produce the maximum.
Every person must economlZe and
spend only what is absolutely neces-
sary. 1t never hurt anyone to have
a bank account
OBVIOUSLY the governments inter
est is to get prices down as quickly
as possible. Yet every man and wom-
an must play a part. Cooperation is
absolutely necessary. All forms Of
extravaganza must be avoided and
consumption of every class Of goods
must be cut to the minimum.

SEE LITTLE HOPE
FOR PEACE BILLS
Congress Legislation to End
War Thought to Have Small
Chance.
by J. BART CAMPBELL.
international News Service.

Legislation by Congress TO re-es-
tablish peace between the United
states and Germany still appears to-
day to have little chance OF getting
anywhere in the near future.
Senate leaders said they had no
objection to the House originating
some measure to meet the situation
created by the Senate's failure to
ratify the peace treaty.
House leaders are bent on whipping
into shape a simple resolution declar-
ing the war between the American
and German peoples at an end. and
repeating wartime legislation which
is still in force.
But even the Republican steering
committee OF the House was unable
to unravel the knotty problem con-
fronting the Republican leaders of
both the Senate and House.
Party strife and factional discord
aggravated the conflict of opinion as
to what form the resolution should
take. Some Republican leaders said
they thought there ought to be
declaration Of Americas foreign
policy; others opposed such .decla-
ration.

Senate and House calendars do not
promise sufficient support to muster
the majority necessary for the adop-
ton of any one of them.
1t was admitted that if a resolution
were agreed on and passed by both
branches, even if ii were deemed con-
stitutional the President would be
almost certain to veto 1t. And to rem
Ter the task of the Republican leaders
more difficult. a canvass of the Senate
md House failed to disclose enough
votes to insure the Presidents veto
being overridden by the necessary
two-thirds vote.
The departure today of Senator
Lodge. the Republican. leader, for
rest, and the absence Of many other
Senators precludes any action by the
Senate this week, even though Hou"e
leaders succeed in putting n resolu-
ton through that body.
Senator's King. Utah; Jones, New
Mexico: Walsh. Montana. and Robin
son, of Arkansas, are on their way
to Panama for change of scene.
icnators Harding, Ohio; Johnson,
California, and PoindeXter, of Wash
lngtOn, all breSlucnLldl dSplrdnlS, are
among those now actively campaign
ing; Senator Cummins, of Iowa, presi-
dent pro TEN. of the Senate, is an
other absentee.
Would Forget Treaty.
The disposition OF the Senate is to
forget about the peace treaty for the
present. The turmoil in Germany has
further complicated the situation. The
President has made it plain he isn't
going to do anything about the treaty
now. He is evidently satisfied to
leave it to the Presidential campaign.
The situation is expected to drag
along indefinitely, and while there
was an absence of talk at the Capitol
today about prospective "peace" leg
islation, the widespread differences
Of opinion prevailing among both Re-
publican and Democratic Senators and
Congressman as to what steps Con-
gress ought to take to end the tech
meal state of war make it extremely
unlikely that anything will really be
done toward that end soon.

How Edith Hene
Cashed Her Big Idea

IT HAS happened innumerable times
that when a woman was forced into
earning a livelihood she ventured
on paths Of which she knew nothing.
Her yesterdays had prepared her for
today, but she refused, or failed TO
see that she had IN her past expert
ence the foundation On which TO
build a commercial career
Miss Edith A Hene was wiser than
most. Her father had a small cigar
factory in a middle-West town she
grew up in a knowledge Of all that
pertains TO the cigar and the pipe
When she was old enough she became
his bookkeeper- Upon his death. she
followed the same occupation in leaf

Then came the time when she must
either go with the firm TO the south
or venture out seeking another posi-
ton. She chose the latter, OF. rather,
she chose neither for instead OF
seeking a position she opened little
