High Prices Are The Rule
In Jap Industrial Capital
(By Associated Pressl

OSAKA, JAPAN, Sept. 12.-Osako,
the industrial capital of Japan has the
reputation of being the most expensive
city of the empire in which to live.
The prices of commodities in Osaka in
June averaged ST per cent over the
same month last year, Toxic the next
expensive city. averaged 6.8 per cent.
The general advance in prices in ten
years has been 1893 per cent in Oskaa
and 130.34 per cent in Toxic, accord
ing to official figures.
Believing that the high prices are
due to profiteering the government re-
Gently ordered the department stores
to make a reduction of Is per cent in
necessities. The stores replied with
bargain sales at which they got rid
of their surplus stock. This did not
satisfy the government so an order
has gone out to all retailers to reduce
the prices of SODA a sort of macaroni
and ito fu" bean paste, staple foods
of the people. If present weather con-
ditions continue a good crop is ex-
pected to bring down the price of rice.

FARMER-[ABOR PARTY
IS HOLDING STAGE
IN WASHINGTON VOTE
(Rv Unitec press,

OLYMPIA, Wash, Sept 12.-Inter-
esting results are expected to be re-
yealed when the ballot boxes disgorge
the votes cast in the state of Washing
ton primaries today.
The degree of interest is enhanced
by the presence of third party in the
field, the Farmer-Labor organization,
which with full ticket bids fair to at
tract a large number of votes ordln-
arily cast for Republican or Demo
cratic candidates.
The campaign in Washington, while
it has not been bitter, has been one OF
the hottest in years. The major dis
turbance has centered about the SEN
atorial head of Miles Poindexter, OF
Spokane, incumbent, whose job nine
candidates of assorted parties would
fain possess.
Poindexter is opposed In his own
party by five candidates, including one
woman, Mrs. Frances G. Axten, OF
Bellingham. Three aspirants will split
the Democratic vote, while the Farm
er-Labor element is expected to mass
solidly behind its candidate, James A.
Duncan.
District Line-ups.
In the first district five Republicans,
candidate are out; in the second dis
trict four Republicans, one Democrat
and one Farmer-Labor; in the third
district two Republicans, and one
FarmerLabCr candidate; in the fourth
one candidate from each of the three
parties; and in the fifth two Demo
Gratis, one Republican and one Farmer
Labor will battle.
Poindexter is and has been opposed
by many elements, many of them with
in the Republican party prior to this
year, but now members and part and
parcel of the Farmer-Labor party, be-
cause of his record in congress, much
of which his opponents have claimed
to be at odds with the will OF the ma
jority of his constituency.
Particularly Poindexters action on
the bonus and the Newberry case has
aroused opposition, which his oppon
ents for his own party's nomination
have made much of. No problems OF
national Importance save those bound
up in Poindexter's own campaign and
his own record will be solved by the
voters.
Excellent Future.
The Farmer-Labor party is regarded
as having an excellent future in the
state because of the solidarity of its
initial entry into politics. The organ
ization contented itself with placing a
full list of candidates on the ballot
limiting itself to one man for each job
insuring, if all goes well, at least the
same vote in November as the party
will poll in the primaries.
Washington is normally Republican
but the dope has been upset so many
times that it is unsafe to say just
which party will forecast it's Novem
Der strength by coming out ahead al
the polls today.

salary they would receive for sim
liar work outside the government
service and they know II. In fact
IL some of them were paid for what
they do there would be many hun

IL the gentleman who signs him
self Justinian could spare the time
to make a thorough investigation
of the work done by Civil Service
clerks in Marine Corps headquarters
and the Navy Department he would
have his eyes opened. There are
a few conscientious Civil Serv-
ice employees, and the Civil Service
idea is all right. but 1t must correct

II seems the Legion plans to attend

Men and Women.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
At last one real normal man of
the age has been discovered.
Adam Kabibble is the most high
ly developed new creation of the
original fallen Adam. He does not
blame mans fall on woman's charm,
but sees mans weakness and folly
in responding in the wrong way to
what may seem too glaringly allur-
ing in the feminine type. II is only
among birds and the lower forms
Of creation that somber colors are
displayed in the female. while the
more brilliant plumage belongs to
the male to attract the female Of
the species. Next to God man has
been endowed with this greatest of
all gifts, the power of creation
Woman at best can only be an in
terpreter OF mans higher power.
With this divine gift he has also
been given the privilege of selec-
tion.
Whatever may develop in woman
that is to him unlovely is a result
Of his misuse of this power of Sc
lection or creation. The most un-
attractive of women blossom into
radiant physical loveliness when a
really nne .unSelnSn man loves IneW
in a beautiful way. The loveliest
of girls become faded and blighted
ins every source of possible growth
OF development through the express
sion of the wrong sort of love In
their lives.
In normal men there is a tend
ency to accord woman just as high
a valuation as she places on her
self. but how few of us are normal? !?
II the source of love is only slim
ulated through material conditions.
we will all eventually develop into
a nation of PaGans or worshippers Of
false gods. 1t should not be what
man beholds with his eyes that
corrupts his morals. his manner of
expression should be the influence
which molds and forms his char
acter. We are only free from the
power of an enemy after we have
met and conquered IL. The man
who admits that ne is only safe
when he is past so and blind and
paralyzed" admits that he has not
the power to overcome the world"
but that It has completely overcome
him.
1t is not our cities with their
bright lights and thousands of
temptations that ruins real men.
il only tries them.
