FOOD PRICES GOING UP

Army supply officers, who buy the
vast quantities of food consumed both by
the Army and the Civilian Conservation
Corps, expect Americas food prices to be
more than 20 per cent higher by next
spring than they are now, although a
marked increase has already occurred in
recent weeks.
The high ranking officers who make
this prediction are obliged to keep inform
ed as accurately as possible concerning
probable future food costs, and their esti-
mate accords with informed opinion on
the subject in other quarters.
The increased food prices which are
inevitable will affect every family in the
land, including those on farms who have
to go into the market for any portion of
their food supplies.
Because of the drouth and the gov
ernment's policy of restricting farm pro-
ductiOn, it is certain that great quantities
of food must be imported from other coun-
tries, thus aiding the farmers of those
countries at the expense of American agri-
culture.
During 1885, farm products which
might have been produced on Is million
acres of American land were imported,
and it seems likely that the coming year
will see an even greater volume of i'm
ports. The governments program of plan
ned scarcity is increasing the living costs
of every citizen, besides increasing unem-
ployment among tenant farmers, share
troopers and farm laborerS.

NO PLACE FOR SLOPPY THINKING


In recent address, Charles r. Gay,
change, made this very astute comment:
Most of the criticism of stock exchanges
during a price relapse comes from people
who speculate with too little knowledge of
what they are doing and with ratios of
capital quite out of proportion to their ex-
pansive imaginations and desires. -.
IF speculative operations could be so
conducted that money was never lost, the
public's good will toward the stock ex-
changes would be one of the really beauti-
full things of life. Everybody would be
happy all the time. The tax returns
would disclose an astonishing number of
million dollar incomes and congress would
be meeting in special sessions trying to re-
duce taxes. >.
'The fact happens to be this: Neither
speculation nor investment can be made
proof against error miScalculation and
sloppy thinking. 1t is thoroughly human
to grow angry and resentful when plans
go awry, especially if the mischance or
miScalculatiOn costs money. But | may
state with the support of considerable
knowledge that great section of the pub
lie which makes use of stock exchanges for
speculation and investment is keenly alert
for knowledge which will help reduce mis-
chance and miscalculation in their market
undertakings. More than that, | am con-
WINGED that the public has made greater
strides in grasping the fundamentals of
true stock market value analysis than we
of the exchanges may realize"
1t will be a happy day when everyone
realizes that a stock exchange is a market
place i'll which the law of supply and de-
mand fixes values, and not all institution
where one may get something for nothing,
and turn hundred dollars into thousand
without risk or labor. The exchanges don't
pretend to work miracles-they simply
perform an essential service to the millions
of citizens who own or wish to buy or sell
securities.
