WE have maintained right along that
w there could be no radical, perma-
mcnt break in prices at this time. We
have stated this repeatedly in our printed
talks about this business. We wanted men
to realize, for their own sakes, that rres.
ent prices were an opportunity that would
not last long, and would not soon recur.
In this case, as always, our advertising
was sincerely intended for the benefit of
the public as well as of ourselves.
Prices have been high because of world
conditions Of shcrtage-Shortage in raw
materials, shortage in finished products,
shortage in transportation facilities, and
shortage in all ferns of labor which must
contribute to the production which alone
can overcome all these ether shortages.
There are no SURPRISES standing anywhere,
or in prospect. The only surplus there has
been is the surplus Of demand. People
have had lots of extra, easy money-many
Of them for the first time in their lives
and they have been indulging themselves.
The present temporary break in prices
was brought about by the action of John
Wsnamaker in reducing everything 20
per cent. Waiving aside all gossip about
his reasons for doing it-much of il, we
suspect, inspired BY vain regrets that he
"heat US to TIT was a master stroke.
But the very fact that his move did not
run like wildfire throughout the country
and bring everything tumbling down about
our ears, instead Of merely cvoking Spo-
radio responses here and there, is proof
enough that il was not related TO fundA-
mental, primary conditions. Many fol-
lowed. Of course. Some thought the time
had come. But most Of those who re-
duced would have reduced in any case
about this time, and 10 the same degree
and extent. Wholesale prices have not
been shaken. There are no more "bar-
gains" no more liquidation Of stocks,
wholesale or retail, now than there nor
mally are at this time Of the year. And

Relatives Here Can Send
Food to Europe
DRAFTS SOLD BY COLORADO Ma
TIONAL BANK-NEW PLAN

Most important is the news that one
of THE Denver banks, the Colorado
National. has been included by
Herbert Hoover. head of the American
Relief administration, thru which re-
lief can be given to the suffering peo-
pie of Central and Eastern Europe.
This information will be most welcome
to anyone having relatives in those
sections. Many have sent their friends
money. which is of little u no service
tC them. Food is what they need.
and it is very scarce. ana almost i'm
possible to obtain. Thru this new ar
rangement of selling drafts for food
now in the warehouses of Europe,
food can quickly and easily he oh
tanned for them.
The drafts are of 1 Glasses. Glasses
and ID will be of the greatest service
to Our readers, for they supply foods
which Jews living according to the
traditional laws may use Class c
drafts. selling for SO, call for 24H
pounds of flour, 10 pounds of beans.
~ pounds of cottOnseed oil and II
cans of milk. while the drafts in Glass
ID. costing $50, call for 10 pounds OF
flour. 30 pounds of beans. 40 pounds
of cottonseed oil and As cans of milk.
Purchasers of these drafts send them
by mail to the persons whom they de-
sire to relieve and on presentation at
the warehouse stipulated that person
obtains the supplies. When the drafts
are paid" notice is sent to the bank
issuing them so the buyer can be adj
vised that his gift has reached the
designated person.
The food is purchased in this coun,
try in large quantities at II low figure
and the only additional charge is for
freight Banks selling the drafts are
permitted to make a charge of % cents
but this is waived by the First Nation
al and probably by all the other insti'
buttons. The amount saved thru the
willingness of the banks is turned into
fund for the relief of the starv-
ing children OF Europe.
