TO BE EXPECTED.

When the pople of the United States
took advantage of the war situation
to go into the profiteering game they
neglected to take one all-important pre-
caution.
They failed to look beyond the
golden hue of their own noses.
AS result OF this proiteering craze
the cost OF everything we produce is
sky high, because all labor and ma
terials used have been bosted to the
limit OF possibility.
Here is the aftermath.
American manufacturers want to
ship their goods abroad, but they find
the foreign markets in many cases
practically closed to them, because
foreign made good are sold for less
than we can make them.
Thus we are deprived of much
OF our foreign trade, and factories are
discharging thousands of their en-
ployees. Some are shutting down en-.
tirely.
Then again, American manufacture
ers are up against the dumping of
foreign made goods into this country
for less than we can produce them
here. If this condition prevails in
future to any considerable extent more
millions will be walking the streets
in search Of employment.
So much for our era of assinine
proiiteering and price boosting.
But when we listen to the piper we
must expect to pay for his music
The hour for payment has arrived.
