PRoFIrEERINe ON SUGAR.

The retail dealers who are charging % cents a pound for sugar have been denounced by Senator Shoot as sugar profiteers. He might as well nave in cluded those charging 23 and % cents a pound in the same class for if one is certainly the others are most likely to be. But is such denunciation jus tified or can the retail price or the profteering all be attributed to the retailer2
 It has been pretty generally under stood in the past that the retailer has received q much smaller profit on sugar than on many other commodi- ties. that it >has not been the store keeper profit that has made the price high or the supply short. There may be those who are taking undue ad- vantage of the trade but for the most part the price at which the retailer sells is only his legitimate profit over and above what he. has to pay for it and legitimate profit is not profit eering. To say therefore that deal- CTS who are charging from % to 2E cents pound for sugar are profiteers depends entirely on what they paid for the sugar.
 Senator Shoot. like lot of others has reason to denounee those who ar, really engaged in profiteering, thos, who have been boarding sugar whiel was purchased at a low figure and ar, putting it out at the peak prices ant those who are mixing a little higf priced sugar with much low priced sugar and demanding the high price for it all. But with sugar coming into the country from Brazil, with the de. partment of justice permitting the high price on Louisiana sugar anC with no steps taken to acquire Cubar sugar when it could have been bough cheap, encouragement has been giveI to the profteer.
 That someone is getting a hand some rakeoff on the millions of pound of sugar being distributed throughout this country is the fixed belief of tn, general public. Many things justify it but it is believed to be an injustice when it is laid to the retailer alon, just because he is the one who take the last profit

Think of it! Over 70 non-or- ganic diseases get their start in an Acid Stomach. Too much acid causes the food to pass on, a sour, fermenting mass. This sends poisonous germs and harmful acids all over the body, instead of strength and life. You might say-It makes the body sour" Day and night it goes on, doing ceaseless damage.
 Get rid of your Acid Stomach. It's the first step to good health. Eminent chemists after years of work-have found a harmless way to take up and carry this excess acid right but of the body.
 This is the secret of the suc- cess of this wonderful remedy called EATONIC. It takes the acid up-carries it out also drives out the noxious gas you can fairly feel it work. Within two years over half a million people have used it, with maryelous benefits. You

PAY FoR pIPLoMATs.

New attention is directed to the matter of increasing the pay of the di- piomatic corps of this government by the secretary of state who asks that there be substantial increases in the case of both ambassadors and min isters.
 This appeal does not deal with a new condition for it has long been re- alIzed that the pay received by our representatives was insufficient in many instances to meet their expenses to say nothing of compensating them for, their time and effort. Sadly sun- derpaid are such officials in compari- son with those of other countries, and the situation is much the same re- garding embassies for where many other countries own their buildings In the different capitals Of the world this country hires.
 The argument in behalf of better pay for our diplomats has been just as good for years as it is today. They are invariably selected for such jobs that the honor may be 8 recompense for political assistance previously rendered, even though it means that they will be out many thousands be- fore they tire of the job. The result is that men of wealth are invariably the holders of such places. And there is no evidence that there would be any change in the method of selecting diplomatic representatives, or that any effort would be made to give any in creased recognition to experienced men should the increase be aPpreyed
 All the reasons that are advanced by others for higher pay hold good 1T the case of diplomatic representatives It is an old story that is being pre- scented at time when the secretary 1 is also informing the country that i must expect larger department ex pe1Ises because Of the increased vol. tune of work that will come with thu league of nations in operation. It ii coming also at time when expendi. lures must be kept down and wheI we are told taxes must not be cut ol another Liberty loan will be required

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
PubIic School Teachers, Salaries.

Public School Teachers Salaries.
 MT. Editor: The degrading salaries paid our public school teachers is not only driving many out of that profes- sion at the present time, but a far more serious situation lies. in the ap- palling fact that there is a still great CT shortage of teachers. only very few years in the future, due to the fact that young men and young wo- men are not entering the normal schools and colleges which train them for the profession of teaching. They have awakened to the fact that public school teachers are miserably under lpaid everywhere. and they are engag- ing in other lines of business where the remuneration is larger and the cost of training Is nothing.
 The real seriousness of the teach ing situation lies in the fact that our public school teachers. after invest ing money in their education. not only fail to receive salaries in advance of others who require no special train ing, but their salaries are actually lower than other vacations.
 There used to be a time when school-teaching was looked upon ae a nice, clean, easy, five-days a week job, with two months vacation in
 summer and liberal vacations sprink- 1 led in at Christmas and Easter, But people have walked up to the fact that i teaching is hard work, that it is. nerve
 rackits-and there are more people who know what nerves" are nova days than used to know.
 Teaching has got to be made attrac. tive, not in easy work. but it must be
 made attractive in salary and in the pension benefits that will accrue after Years of, teaching. If the work is no made remunera tive, this present crisi. i will grow still more serious until there
 comes the demora!ized and broken down educational system

Theme for Novel-What a subject for romance Prince Carol will make before he has fully reaped the rewards and penalties of his loves young dream. If the reports of his at tempted suicide are confirmed, it will mean temporary, triumph of conven- tion over affection.
