The Cheaper Meat Campaign.

The campaign or the "drive" to edu-
cate Washington families to the use of
cheaper meat began Monday, and the
results Of this effort, if there shall
be any, will be studied with interest
by a large number of citizens. The
Department of Justice, which appears
to be the power behind this drive, has
asked Washington housewives to buy
throughout the week only the less ex-
pensive cuts of meats such as "chuck"
and brisket.
If this movement provides way to
reduce the cost of living Washington
people will welcome it. Several
thoughts are suggested by the cheaper
meat plan. In the first place, the in
sistence of the proponents Of the plan
that Washington families shall eat
cheaper cuts of beef carries the in
ference that Washington wives are ex-
: travagant and have not striven hard
: enough to find way of saving money
on the family food bill. This infer
ence may be fair in some cases, but it
is a wrong inference in the vast ma
jority Of cases. The wife at the head
Of the average Washington family has
pinched hard to make the husbands
salary meet the necessary household
expenses. The price Of round steak,
@chuck" and the less desirable parts
Of beef has gone up certainly in the
same ratio as the price Of other cuts.
The price of round steak is higher
than the price Of porterhouse was be-
fore the war. Thousands Of prudent,
thrifty wives have tried to economize
by buying the lower and the lowest
price cuts Of beef, and thousands of
them will tell you there is no economy
in the practice, and that the cheaper
cuts Of beef are cheaper because they
are worth less. They figure on the
amount Of bone, fat and gristle, and
leaving out the question Of toughness
NO economy results from buying the
so-called low-priced cuts. Another
question is whether if the demand for
the more desirable cuts is shifted into
the less desirable, the former will 60
down in price and the latter up. If
the price of the more desirable cuts
drops, the demand will quickly swing
back to them. There is . parity be-
tween porterhouse, round and "chuck"
which may be temporarily disturbed,
but in the long run it seems to be rea-
sonab1y constant.
The main thing this week is to give
tie proposition the trial which its ad-
voeates ask and then each household
can determine for itself how much, If
anything, is to be saved by the
process. Let US see if by eating pot
roasts made from chuck and cham
burg" made from around" the price of
those cuts will remain where it is,
and whether the price of roast beef,
sirloin, tenderloin and porterhouse will
60 down. And also whether there will
be any effect on the price Of a leg of
mutton, a pound Of bacon or a slice
Of ham.

His fingers thin and long.
His frowning was q grewsome sight.
His manners weren't half polite as he

Assurances Sought That New

eigners-SmaIIer Army.

Washington.-The Mexican sltua-

by the American government than has
any subject since the Paris Peace Con-
ference, 1t was stated at the state de-

provisional government, provided sat-
isfactory assurances are given that it
can and will maintain order and will
live up to its obligations respecting the
protection Of the lives and property Of
foreigners.
American officials, it is stated au-
thoritatively, are impressed with the
evident sincerity Of the expressions Of
Provisional President de la Huerta,
but they have taken note that the ac-
tive workers in the various depart
ments of the Mexican government
have not been changed and that the
newly appointed. cabinet officers leave
