The cost Of living is going to rise
again the period of price declines
that began more than a year ago is
practically ended, in the judgment of
officials Of those branches of the Gov
ernment who study economic causes
and influences.
Rising wholesale prices supply tho
evidence upon which the officials base
their judgment Of what the next few
months will bring to consumers
throughout the entire country. Food.
clothing and other necessities will cost
more during April. May and June
than now.
Rents are going down in the face OF
a movement that has the earmarks Of
o nationwide building boom. Construc-
ton is being undertaken at the rate
Of moro than 5000, 10000 month in
this. the dull season for contractors.
Rising prices. according TO experts.
mean general prosperity and increased
buying. There ara indications that
greater buying has begun In SONS sec
tions. Wholesale prices. which antici-
pate the level of retail prices, began 10
rise in January. In February wholesala
prices increased 2 per cent. Increases
we're recorded for food. clothing and
other commodities.
Wholesale prices now arc approx
mately 20 per cent. above the level Of
1918. Some officials believe the rise in
February marks the beginning of a nav
national price era. In short. II Is being
explained that from now all price com
parison must be made on the basis Of
prices last November instead OF before
the war. To the average consumer this
means that prices struck their lowest
level last autumn. In December and
November the level Of wholesale prices
stood at 40 per cent. above the pre-war
level. That Is the lowest point whole
sale prices have reached since before
the United states entered the war.
Throughout 1917. 1919 and most OF 1920
prices were on the up grade The in
crease ranged around per cent. a
month.
Then began the nationwide strike Of
buyers. Merchants found themselves un-
able 70 dispose OF vast stocks they had
purchased In expectation OF continued
boom IN buying. At prices often below
cost these goods were flung on the mar
ket Since 1920 buying has been on a

gent necessities have been purchased.
with the demand comparatively small.
Buyers feared to stock up lest prices
60 stll lower.
Now s the time 20 buy for those who
arc waiting for bottom prices, most Gov
ernment officials believe. During April
prices probably viii be / or 2 per cent
higher than at present This applies to
retail prices as we'll M wholesale. Retail
prices decreased slightly during Feb
ruary, but IN the next thirty days they

Call Is Premature

y The call issued for a suspen-
sion of work by miners was
declared to be premature by Frank
Harrington, president of the Illinois
miners, tonight. He asserted that
John l.. Lewis. international presi-

exceeded his authority in issuing
the strike call before next Fridays
meeting of the miners national
wage scale committee at Cleveland.
Harrington, who is leader of the
anti-Lewis faction within the union,
declared that at the Cleveland
meeting he and his followers, in
cluding leaders from other States,
would insist for the right to nego-
tiate separate State wage agree
ments with the operators.

The definite date of Prime Minister
Lloyd Georges return to the parlia-
mentary arena and definite plans to
help Russia developed simultaneously
to-day. Austen Chamberlain, coali
ton leader in the House of Commons
announced that on April 3 the Pre-
mier would define his Genoa policy
and ask for vote Of confidence in it
such as was granted before the Wash
ington conference. There seems little
doubt but that he will get the vote
and thus put off the political crisis.
Meanwhile further dealings with
Russia. probably leading to formal
recognition in accordance with the
British Treasury's plan. are to depend
upon Russia's willingness to acknowl-
edge all debts, present and past. Such
acknowledgment is TO take the form
of bond issue by the Soviet Govern
ment covering the old Czarist and
other governmental and municipal
debts, and possibly certain private
debts as well. This plan was proposed
to-day by the British experts at their
meeting with the allied technical ad-
visers.
The NEW YORK HERALD correspondent
also is informed authoritatively that q
proposal TO proportion the allied debt
payments upon German reparation pay
ments will not be brought up formally
by the British at the Genoa conference.
as has been reported. At the same time.
the informant admits. Genoa would be
an excellent place to develop the idea.
even informally. or. IL France would
consent, formally. 1t is admitted that
British Treasury officials are deeply
interested in American comment upon
the proposal.
They still are hopeful that America
will take what they term "a broad view"
of the situation.
Soviet Bond Issue Planned.
The Italian position in regard TO the
British suggestion as to the issue OF
Soviet Russian bonds was presented In
the meeting of experts to-day and was
said to be highly favorable. It is un-
derstood that the French experts also
look upon the plan with favor, though
1t Is admitted it will have to go through
rough political waters in France. as. in
fact, il will In England.
The die-hards already are preparing

bases OF attack upon MT. Lloyd George $

tant advices from Russia, that the plan

That is stated TO be the basis upon
which Mr.. Lloyd George viii defend his
policy on the floor of the House Of Com
mons.

President Harding and Sc etary

President Harding allowed it ee

nial in a letter addressed by him to
Senator Lodge, which the Massachu
setts Senator read into the Record.

terday by Senator Borah CIdaho).
Both the President and the Secre-
tary of State realize the danger to
Americas relations with foreign
countries contained in charge given
a semi-official character by repeti.
tion on the floor OF the Senate by
Senator Borah. The President made
no effort to disguise the fact he is
aroused over the trend which the
Senate debate has taken. The very
thought that this country, through
its Government. should treacherously
undertake to perfect secret agree
ment within public compact was
characterized at the White House as
preposterous and a vicious slander
upon the good faith OF the United
States.
Secretary Hughes declined 10 dis
cuss tl:e possibility that he may go
before the Senate in further defense
of the treaties. He believes he has
made his position perfectly clear, but
he is prepared 10 furnish additional
data to refute any charge that this
country sacrificed any advantage in
making the naval agreement.
