THE WORLD ON SHORT RAFroNs

Never in the history of this coun-
try has there. been such an enormous
yield of foodstuffs as was produced
in 1920 Yet the poor consumer is
living harder than when the yield
was a so-called under supply. We
are starving in the midst of CON
ditiOn of plenty.
Rockingham post-dispatch. [volume] (Rockingham, N.C.) 1917-1965, 1921-07-21
What is The Trouble?

Why does the consumer have
high cost of living when such sup
ply is on hand, The unorganized
produced has received for less than
cost for his products. He therefore,
is mot to blame. The law of supply
and demand has in some way failed
to operate at the other end. Is it
possible that this great law can be
rendered impotent by the manipu-
lations Of other forces; The poor
consumer has always been told
that his welfare lay in the scarcity
of money, or in the dollars increas-
ed purchasing power. This has been
largely true in the past, but with the
reduction in wages, salaries, and in
comes, and in many instances, the
loss of employment, has he the
dollar and if so, how much worse off
is be and his family, in viewof the
high prices he is paying? }

GET LEADER Of
SILK ROBBERS
important Arrest is Made in
Big Metuchen HoId-up,
is Report

fBy Evenirg News STAFF Correspondent
NEW BRUNSWICK, July 2S:-
The ~ringleader in the silk robbery
at Metuchen on July l was captured
on Tuesday night when County De-
tective Ferd A. David and Sergeant
Sheehy arrested James O'Neill, alias
Dunn" and Jimmy Boston" on
East Seventy-fourth street, New

James II. Lunny, admitted that he
was the leading spirit in the faxed
holdup and made a complete con-
fsssion shortly after his arrest.
In the confession O'Neill stated
that the crowd pulling the robbery
was to receive $4,000 for the ma
terial stolen. but that they had been
beaten out of part of their promised
remuneration, finally getting only
$4,000 out of the job. After the
robbery, when things began to get
warm for them around New York,
the men implicated in the affair
boLght a Stutz car, according to
O'Neill, and went to Savin Rock,
Conn, where they renamed until
the authorities learned of their pres
ence. They then struck out for
Chicago, making the trip in the au-
tomobile. e
O'Neill said that trouble struck
him in Chicago. He was trimmed
for $500 by his pals in the deal
and his automobile was damaged in
an accident. Finally he sold the
car for $1,000 and came back to
New York, where he was arrested
on Tuesday night.
AS a result of the confession more
arrests of men implicated in the
robbery are expected In a few days.
O'Neill will be arraigned in the East
One Hundred and Twenty-third
street police court today and held
for thirty days without bail while
awaiting extradition to New Jersey.
