WHAT CAUSED THE DEPREssioNa

Al Mr.. Wood, Of Philadelphia, rep
resenting a number of the wool manu-
facturers OF the country, when before
the Congressional investigating COM
mittee, upon being asked what he
thought brought on the prevailing de-
preston in all kinds of business acti-
vities, mentioned two: Ole was the
cancellation OF its contracts by the
government after the armistice; the
other the indiscriminate prosecution
Of the profiteers BY the department Of
Justice.
Here a man distinguished enough
to be summoned before the Congress
sional committee who wanted the
government to keep right on with its
contracts for the prosecution of the
war after peace and hands off the
profiteers by the department of JUS
tice.
He believed that the indiscriminte

profiteers was one Of the key notes
to prosperity and that they should not
have been halted in their wild career.
Which led Senator Thomas, Of Colo
RADIO, to say:
81 am anticipating, however, that
some one NAV. because OF this emer-
gency and in the interest of the man
ufacturer. offer an amendment to the
bill providing for the revival OF all
war government contracts hitherto
and prohibiting the department of
rice from further interfering with
profiteers, for truly If those are the
causes of our suffering, and they have
been presented with the utmost good
faith by honorable gentlemen, then
both logic and sound craftsmanship
require that they with the other caus-
ses should be removed.
Such methods of relief would GER
tainly bring JOY to the hearts of many
contractors and restore peace Of
mind to many profiteers now threat
ened with conviction.

GOVERNMENT WILLING TO
DO IT'S BEST-PRENIIER

London April S (by the Associat
ed Press Premier Lloyd George,
replying in the house of commons
today, in the debate on the coal
situation, declared what all wanted
was to arrive at qualification in a
very dangerous dispute, if it could
be done in way compatible with
the interest of the nation. He con-
tended. however, that substituting a
great industry out of taxation was
wrong in principle and indefensi-
BILE, especially at the present, in
view of the heavy taxation and the
condition of the eXchequer.
He recalled that the loss before
March 81 on government control
of the mines was more than 1000
600 pounds weekly. The premier
would not express any opinion as
to whether the wages were ade-
quate. as, he pointed out that
would cripple the governments eff
fectiveness in any negotiation. The
government would be willing. he
continued. to undertake anything
it could do in promoting an under
standing between the miners and
owners, but it was essential that
the miner should give every facil-
ity and assistance to prevent the
pits from being destroyed.
