Brandegee, however, does not hesitate to express a strong per sonal opinion of the outcome, al- though he does not desire to be quot ed. its enough to say he is as dead set as ever against the whole con- triFance" as he calls the league. Sen ater Mclean has been closely tied to hearing in which banking and cur rency, vocational tfaihing and giving women equal opportunity with men under civil service examInations have taken up big part of the time. Con- gressifiah L6nergan has arranged for conference this month with the at torney general and others on his federal court probation bill; Con- gressila1i Tilson was selected by Gillett to preside over the house practically all the past week when the urgent deficiency bill was under consideration. It took a master hand to keep the house in order and wres- tie with the parliamentary points brought upland Tilson got many congratulations on the way in which he handles the turbulent house when debate waxed hot. His experience as speaker of the Connecticut house of ten stands him in good stead under such circunastanees.
 One 6f the interesting developments of the paper shortage was the reduc- ton of bids for government supplies to one-half it's usual quantity and from one half, or less the customary bidders When the bids for paper we're opened this week it was found that only four cohcerns had bid, and that among them were none for eith- CT print paper or machine finish, both Of which are needed in great quanti- ties. The uncertainty of supply and the future price evidently frightened of the n1anufactures from making bids for the next six months supply

THE ceAL sHoRTAeE.

Just where the responsibility lays for the shortage of fuel throughout New England ought not to be difficult to establish but it is evident that in- sufficient attention has been given to getting this part of the country back to normal conditions following the called of it was expected that it would be a month C. 50 before it would De possible to rest6ck the de- pleted supplies so that the restric- ti6ns made necessary by the strike could be lifted For considerable time not a carload of coal had been brought into New England, but con trary to expectations the restrictions were at once lifted, consumption went ahead on former lines regard less of the fact that coal was not coming in and such as was on hand or on the tracks was barely enough to meet tfie needs.
 This on top of the fact that a car shortage was reported and the bad season for transportation was at hand made an excellent combination for the very shortage that is being experienced With industries and pub lie utilities finding it difficult to ob- tain enough fuel to keep going and others. being forced to shut down be- cause coal could not be obtained.
 It cannot be claimed that it is be- cause of the lack of foresight by the different lines Of business to guard against such situation through es- tablishins d surplus of fuel, for it has been impossible to do such a thing. Even the railroad administration has been looking after it's lines so poorly that coal belonging to others had to be seized to keep them going. The trouble may be attributed directly to the strike, but indirectly it seems to be lack of proper regard for New England's needs

AHIeH PRICES.

Apparently the chances of getting rid of the high prices are as slim as the possibilities of elininatins the poor. Both are apparently with us to stick fer Some time, and it is in- teresting to note what Food Admin istrator- Williams of New York has to say about the methods used in one industry in pushing up the prices.
 Concerning shoes. Mir Williams says that one manufacturer. chiefly because of the higher labor cost. mad fo pay s1:fz a pair more to fet the shoes made. Because of this he in- creased his selling pfice SIPS. Ths retailer because the shoes cost hin, more increased his price by S1.5o and the result Is that shows which cost the retailer ss.5e are being sold bv him for s10.50. This Mir. williams doesn't think justified charge of prolteering, even though the profit on the pair is probably greater than the former selling price. but he does nevertheless feel that @advantaks ia

taken of every opportunity to ifi= crease the cost to the consumer"
 What is true of this particular in- stance in the shoe business is like
 wise true in other lines. It seems to be the disposition to put on all that the buyer will stand just because conditions are what they are. Pos sibly MT. Williams would consider such dealers as he referred to as ex- tortionists if not profteers, but, how- ever he may regard them it is per
 fectly evident that as long as dealers in any line can get what they ask in the shape of prices whether those prices are justified or not, it can be expected that prices will continue at the top notch. It is a case, as the food administrator says, of taking advantage of opportunities by all the handlers of goods. Not being able to class them as profteers there seems to be no agency for tacking them except the consumers them selves by refusing to pay the high prices just because. they are asked

 Then his remark was: q just wish I had known the fellow liked that place well enough to pay that for a picture of it. I'd sold him the farm for 200 less than that"
