PRICES ARE NOT
EXCESSIVE HERE
SAYS COMMITTEE

No instances of what would con-
stitute unfair profit or profiteering
among the merchants of Rernalillo
county have been discovered by the
fair price committee appointed by
Governor LARA colo on December
3, 1919. in The report submitted on
Monday TO the governor by the
committee. While the committee
does not deem it possible to estab-
lish a fair price list, owing to the
fluctuating markets, it does not be
lieve that prOfiteering can be prof
itably INDUCED in in the face of
existing competition,
The report follows;

At this meeting your circular let

The information necessary to intel

committee would be secured most
readily by holding weekly meet

dealers in commodities coming

act would be invited to attend to

nation as might be in their pos
session, bearing upon initial costs,
cost of doing business, items in
cluded by merchants under that
head, selling prices and margins
of profit on articles pertaining TO
their respective lines Of business.
The plan outlined has been pur-
sued through a series of meetings.
Many witnesses have been before

The letter in part is as follows:
"Just about three months ago, l
had the pleasure to call at your Office
to get some information about the
Anti-Saloon League, which | desired
to use in favor of the temperance
movement in Holland.
at your office | was received very
cordially, and | took along with me
some literature. Before | left, | was
asked to write about the movement
here, and that is the reason why l
send this letter.
81 have been very much surprised
by the TACT, that so many lies about
the results of Prohibition in America
are printed in the Dutch newspapers.
1t seems as if the entire press is con-
trolled by the liquor interest, and
those papers that used to be neutral
or favorable towards our action ap-
parently have SO little information
that they are unable to contradict the
misleading statements.
Yesterday talked with a man who
sacrifices his entire time for the tenn
perancc idea, and he complained, that
since 1914 he had never received any
useful information about dry America.
Not long ago ! read that the Anti
Saloon League OF America intended
to help other countries to become dry,
and that their ideal is, not only dry
America, but dry world.
Il personally have been able TO OBJ
serve the blessings OF Prohibition in
your dry states, and surely should like
to sec it established in Holland. 1t is
for this reason that | dare to beg you
to help us. Every time | read in the
newspapers here the untrue state
ments about your country, feel that
| must contradict them. But how

ABOUT The TRIBUNE

The following shows what one
woman thinks about the attitude Of
the Chicago Tribune on tho liquor
question. Doubtless there are many
others who tlinl; the same. This is
a letter sent to the Tribune editor.
Desplaincs. ILL.,, Feb. Is Edi-
tor of the Tribune. I'VE sub
scribe for two Tribuncs daily. one
for me and one which my hus-
band takes to the Office.
We agree with nearly all the
policies of your paper and send
clippings TO our friends in the far
West.
Butt say it with rcgrct--wc
are sorry and ashamed of your
stand on the liquor question.
You evidently think millions of
our poor women and children
should suffer rather than the man
Of the home should be deprived
Of his drink. You believe in his
personal liberty. Can you not
realize his family is having per-
sonal liberty for the first timer
Let the poor souls--the wives and
children = live and have their
chance.
My husband used to turn to the
B. L. T. column before he read
the news, but he docs so no
longer. And we arc not rabd,
either We simply have a sense
of justice. If women were the
chief offenders and made life mis-
cradle for the men because OF
strong drink, we would have had
Prohibition years ago. There
would have been no talk of per
sonal liberty" then.
