The demand in favor OF discard
ing the obsolete and unsatisfactory
methods for building a tariff on a po-
litical foundation merely to vindicate
The archaic doctrines OF the party
has been repeatedly brought 10 light
in the tariff discussions. One thing
appears 10 be absolutely certain. The
Republican party has lost sympathet-
ic contact with the business interests
Of the country.
The demand for the disproportiOn-

An announcement Of unusual sig

men vas made by Secretary OF Agri-
culture Wallace 20 the effect that
steps viii be taken shortly to
strengthen the scientific work Of
the deartment as IT may be related
TO home economies" A similar
statement from Secretary Wallace is
being made by Assistant Secretary
Pursley. Who is speaking before the
American Home Economics Associa-
ton at Corvallis. Oregon, today.
ultimately / have in view max
ing the home economies work an IN
dependent bureau" said Secretary
Wallace in his preliminary announce
ment. ranking with the other bu-
reaus of the department and placing
at the head OF it a woman OF execu-
tive ability. thorough scientific train
ing. and a broad and sympathetic
understanding Of what is needed to
make such a bureau most helpful to
the women of the country"
Work for women has grown stead
lily in the Department OF Agriculture.
In 1915, what has been called the Of
iee of home economics was created
as a part of the extension service
In this home economics work great
deal of attention has been given to
studies of foods and how best to use
them, labor-saving devices for the
home, studies of dress-making and
materials, etc. While work of this
sort is planned primarily for the help
Of women on the farms. much Of IL is
equally helpful to women in the
cities, and especially to those IN
moderate circumstances who must
exercise economy and get the great
est value for the money spent.
The woman chief of the proposed
new bureau will rank with the chiefs
of the other bureaus of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. attend the week
ly conferences in the secretary's Of
fee and thus bring the women's view
point into the general work Of the
department.

THE PRoFITEERlNe SEE SAW

Now we hail the period of pros
/ Derity Analysis Of the boom dis
I closes that wages rise rapidly. some
times 10 incredible heights. but that
! the cost OF living rises still more
rapidly, and TO still more incredible
heights. Soon we strike the reac
lion, the period OF depression. and
then We find that wages fall rapidly.
but that food prices simply stumble
. They never drop with the thud OF the
workers wages.
From March TO April OF this year.
for example. We learn that the aver
age weekly earning Of New York
state factory workers declined AZ
cents This is a reduction Of s2O5
from April, 1921. and a reduction Of
sf7S from October. 1920. which
marked the peak OF earning. As
against these figures the United
States Bureau OF Labor Statistics
hows that the cost of living declin-
ed only per cent between Decem-
Der 1921. and March. 1922. in the
country as a whole.
True. since June. 1920. there has
been a drop OF 23 per cent, but de-
spite this the cost Of living remained
IS per cent above 1913 in March Of
this year.
The retail cost OF food did not
change at all from March TO April.
either in the country as a whole or
In the leading cities Of the great En-.
pire State.
Surely our political economists
can find a lesson in such figures.
When we poke under the public nose
such evidence OF outrageous profit
eering, plus bungling and faulty tax
alton, we create a condition that Is
appalling, II not inhammatory. The
American workman never can rise 20
