NOT ADVISABLE TO
HURRY MEMORIAL
Haste Certain to Be Followed by Long
Repentance Example Set by
Paris Is Significant.

After reading with interest the various
comments regarding a proposed war me-
moral for Brattleboro and hearing many
criticisms regarding the length of time
which has been consumed in making a
decision as to what form memorial
should take the Forum editor desires to
show that the avoidance of a hasty de-
cision is justified, calling attention to an
editorial in a recent issue of the New York
Times under the heading Time and the
War Memorial. The editorial follows in
part:
'fThe matter is one in which haste is
certain to be followed by long and not
leisurely repentance. As to our own mon
umental errors in the past we may per-
nit ourselves an indulgent silence
Properly conceived and executed, the me-
mortal should be for all time crown
ing glory of our city Yet the problem
presents peculiar difficulties difficulties
for the solution of which time for dis,
cussion and reflection is as necessary as
Judgment and artistic skill.
eeTn a measure the problem might be
solved BY one of the projected water
gates; vet. as the Jury of Artists points
out. the beauty of such a monument
would be mainly apparent from the wa
ter side If placed on the Riverside Drive
only the rear of the monument would be
much seen by those for whom, after all,
it was created There are objections
equally great to each and all of the pro-
iects thus far urged,
''The example set by Paris is signi6-
can't That city is perhaps the most spa
cious, orderly and harmonious in the mod
ern world. Yet they have lately decided
not to begin the planning and construc-
ton of their war memorial until after
the lapse Of ten years. As the Jury of
Artists well says: Only time can devei-
op. the full strength of the artistic tai
sent and imagination of the community

jet, forever at meeting held at the end

BIC F[UCTUAT|ON
IN BEEF PRICES
Dropped From $21 In jan
uary to SIT In Last
Week in May
JUMPED TO sci j
THIRTY DAYS LATER
Abnormal Conditions Following War
Said to Be Responsible - Good Beef
Steers Sold for S2.25 Less When the
Price of Dressed Beef Was Highest.

WASHINGTON, July 27.-Unusual
fluctuations in the price of dressed beef
occurred during the first six months of
this year, says a report of the United
States bureau of markets. Starting
with a top price of $21 for good grade
beef in January, sharp and erratie price
changes marked trading throughout the
period, with the low top price of ST.
| recorded during the last week in May
and the high point, $31, made on June
in 80 days.
A series of unavoidable events, most
of them resulting from abnormal con-
ditions produced by the war, eontribu-
ted to the phenomena price trends, the
report says. Among the principal dis
| turbing influences described are per
iodical releases by the war department
of surplus stocks of beef in an effort
to reduce living costs, higher stocker
and feeder markets, high priced feeds,
fruition of producers efforts to increase
| cattle production for war needs and an
| ticipated foreign demands, labor troub-
les, decreased transportation facilities,
| embargoes, unsettled foreign credit and
exchange conditions. decrease in beef
exports, financial credit restrictions, de-
clnes in prices of hides, tallow, and
other animal y-produets and decreased
| or spasmodic consumption of meat.
Tn fact, the report says, every pos
sible economic factor incidental to
period of reconstruction and capable of
| disturbing market conditions for these
| for these products of the farm and
range had free and almost unlimited
action.
| Prices of livestock in the Chicago
market and those paid for dressed car
cases as taken from New York quo
tations from 10 days to two weeks
after the live cattle transactions also
showed wide fluctuations, the report as
| serts The difference of 1925 per 100
pounds between prices for good beef
steers and the corresponding grade of
| dressed careases in January was
widened until it stood at $14.50 dur
| ing the closing days of June. For the
same period the difference between the
| low price of medium steers on the hoof
and in the carcass had advanced from
| 1928 to $12.75.
A comparison of live cattle prices
and prices on relative grades of dressed
meats on January and June 80 this
year with those of corresponding dates
last year shows the top price for good
| beef steers at the beginning of this
! year at Sf8.75 and at the end of June
as $16.50 Ga drop of $2.25) with the OPP
ening top price on dressed beef from
such steers at $21 and the close at $31
On January ?, 1919, live prices for the
same grade We're up to $17.75 and at.
the end of six months the top stood at
$14.60. a decline of 1915. Good
dressed beef on January 2, last year,
registered a top of $27 and on June 30
had declined IS to a top of $40.

cooLIDGE's SPEECH.
Continued from Page ~

''The most obvious place to begin
retrenehment is by eliminating the eX-
travagance of the government itself
In this the congress has made com
mendable beginning, but although the
congress makes the appropriations, tn
departments makes the expenditures
which are not under legislative but ex
ecutive control Tn extravagant stan
dards bred of recent years must b
eliminated. This should show immed-
lately i'm reduced taxation. That great
breeder of public and private extrav-
agance. thedlPXees profits tax, SHOULD
be revised and recourse had to Gus
toms taxes on imports, one of the
most wholesome of all means of rails
ing revenue, for it is voluntary in eff
feet. and taxes consumption rather than
production. 1t should be laid accord
ing to the needs Of creditor nation
for the protection of the public, with
a purpose to render us both economic
ally and defensively Independent.
GA revision of taxation must be
accompanied with a reduction of that
private extravaganza which the returns
from luxury taxes reveal as surpass-
ing all comprehension. Waving the
moral effect, the economic effect Of
such extravaganza is to withdraw
needed capital and labor from essen
tial industries, greatly increasing the
public distress and unrest.
"'There has been profiteering. II
should be punished because it is wrong
But it is idle to look to such action
for relief. This class profit by scarcity
but they do not cause it.
% As every one knows now, the diff
fculty is caused by a scarcity of ma
terial, an abundance of money, and in
sufficient production. The government
must reduce the amount of money as
fast as it can without curtailing nee
essarv credits. Production must be in
creased. All easy to say but difficult
of accomplishment"
High prices, Governor Coolidge said,
would produce their own recently
through the law of supply and de
mand. Continuing, he added: ''This
condition has bourne with especial Sc
verify on the agricultural interests of
the nation To cope with it the farmers
need an enlarged power of organization
whereby the original producer may pro-
fit to a larger degree by the high prices
paid for his produce by the ultimate
consumer, and at the same time de
crease the cost Of food. The economic
strength of a country rests on the
farm. Industrial activity is dependent
upon it. 1t replenishes the entire life
of the nation. Agriculture is entitled
to be suitably rewarded and on its
encouragement and success will depend
the production of a food supply large

reasonable cost.
f'But all these difficulties depend for
final solution on the character and moral
force of the nation. Unless these

in work done there is no real remedy. =
