UNEMPLOYMENT LOSSES.

How easily people get to taking for granted very
serious matters. Time when smallpox ravaged
whole communities and most of the surviving pop
ulation had faces disfgured people thought 1t had
to be that way.
Unemployment is conceded to be very bad but
while period must come in which business can't
make profits Then some of it quits Men refuse
to risk their capital. They discharge their workers
and wait for better times
But isn't 1t time to stop taking this situation for
granted as necessary? 1t is more serious than most
people think How much money raised in n
Liberty loan drive? Three billion dollars. Every
body stood aghast when 1t first announced that
the government going to raise money in such
colossal Jumps. But conservative estimates put the
loss in wages alone by unemployment in this
country this year at than twice that amount
The workers who could not work have lost six and
a half billion dollars.
There is way of estimating all the losses that
follow from this Industries that would have en-
ployed these and paid the wages have lost
profits and perhaps capital. Farmers who would
have sold materials and foodstuffs have lost
millions because Of falling prices and decreased de-
mand. Merchants railroads, every interest that
the public has shared In the losses incurred
by this business sagnation. In addition, and per-
haps serious. damage has been done of
inestimable extent to public health morals and the
general welfare.

gan In that peaceful time Russia supplied her owr
needs and had surplus of 100 100000 bushels for
export Apparently. then, there is world shortage
this year of approximately 164 000,0 600 bushels
without allowing for any supplies going to Russia
which will have to look abroad for wheat
The pre-war five-year average of wheat pro-
duction was CSC, 600 900 bushels Last year we had
crop totaling 7S7 600 bushels and this year it
is estimated American fields yielded 754 100000
bushels of wheat. Government statsticiars figure
that our population requires for food and seed
approximately six bushels per capita, 636,000,000
bushels. 1t would seem should have about 49,
000,0 900 bushels for export. But in July and August
this year exports of wheat and flour amounted
to 81, 600 bushels that there is not much of
a surplus left from the estimated crop of 1921.
The apparent world shortage. exclusive of Rus
STA, is accentuaed this year by a seeming return TO
consumption of wheat in all the countries
The enormous drain from this country during the
last summer indicated the purpose to have wheat
The demand continuing, prices naturally would be
bid up, though we kept the usual surplus
within our borders. In another year or two, how
ever, there Is apt to be heavy overproduction of
wheat unless there be crop failures and this with
out allowing anything for Russias return to the
ranks of producing countries. Some of the Euro.
pean nations have made astonishing progress to-
ward restoration of normal production, few
ceeding it. but others are still below their prewar
average. When they catch up there will be plenty
of wheat and that will affect prices.

Another tried and true custom handed down by

The campaign, the papers, is to be only sugges

the public through them.
That announcement has an ominous sound. We
can trace the history of American restrictive move

urged to preach on the subject on special Sunday
ushers are asked to pass out literature the
shippers file out, the editors furnished material
for articles and editorials the schools organize pa

showing the rise of man from the sodden state of
the Saturday night ablutons in the washtub to the
advanced state of two baths per week in a tiled

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

Chicago, Nov. 1S.-Uneasiness
over reports of crop damage in Ar
gentina and Australia had a bull
ish effect today on the wheat mar
ket. Prices closed firm at 2Mc to
3 nc net advance. with December
$1.0SA to $1.0S3s and May Sill x
to $1.11A. Corn gained lie to "a C
to l &c and oats ~ C to 1c. In pro-
visions the outcome varied from
unchanged figures to 10c to 22c
higher.
Crop damage in Argentina was
attributed to locusts and in Aus
tralia to a hot wave. With deter
ioration thus affecting both the
important wheat producing coun-
tries of the southern hemisphere,
the wheat market throughout the
day evinced a decided tendency to
soar, for bears of late have put con-
siderable stress on prospects of
good yield in the harvest now at
hand below the equator. Another
stimulus toward higher prices was
the scantiness of domestic receipts.
The amount of grain in transit in
the northwest, especially, was said
to be the lightest at any time this
season. Word of snow and rain at
many places failed to check the
upward movement. The fact that
ten loads of gulf wheat had been
taken for export at 1 cent better
premium than yesterday helped to
inspire confidence among buyers.

the woods, that's the way his tall
silk hat was knocked off.
"Bang"
The hat fell to the ground, amid
the dried leaves of autumn, and
the rabbit gentleman felt little
queer, with a tingling in his head,
which seemed to spin around like
a top as his hat was knocked Off
For my hat certainly was
knocked off," said Uncle Wiggily
to himself as he looked at 1t on
the ground, my hat didn't fall
off by itself-it was knocked off.

The rabbit gentleman looked
down amid the fallen leaves
around his paws and saw some
thing, a little lighter brown In
color than any of the leaves, NOV

leaves did--only when the wind
blew-but seemed to be crawling
