heard for the first time the girls
glee club of Coolidge high school
And they were good. There may
have been better high school glee
clubs but we've never heard them.
As they were applauded for their
singing We couldn't help but think
OF the applause as a personal tri-
butte for T. Shoore. their leader and
instructor. Their voices showed
the results OF tireless and patient
coaching by a teacher OF infinite
ability.

What initiation Is. But. however.
the high prices OF 1919 will seem
like peanuts TO what they will be
II our congress dumps the OPA.
Sure. the OPA has irked us. And
the OPA has made a lot of silly
mistakes. We do not believe OPA
is right when IL refuses to let a
manufacturer increase prices to
cover mounting production costs
and still make a profit And Ger
tainly the silliest of all rules OPA
brass ever thought up was the one
which tells a manufacturer. a mer-
chant or a restaurant operator he
should maintain the price OF a
particular item even though he lost
money on its sale II his entire
operation showed a profit Ineyit-
ably the result was discontinuance
Of the item.

RSIGHTED

merchants want the OPA. They
fear the initiation which Is bound
to come. They know that oppon-
ents OF oPA say the old law OF
supply and demand will soon bring
all prices down. But that's not
yet true and will not be for some
time TO come. IL will be true event
ually but every individual on a
fixed salary or fixed income will
suffer a financial loss unequaled
in the past. What forward think
ing merchants want is controlled
price rises which 20 along imme-
diately with increased costs But
the last thing they want Is no con
troll at all.
