air ought to be rendered harmless in ili the same manner says an exchange THE ABSENCE of vice president marshall at the joint session of the senate and house to extend to gen eral pershing perching the nations formal vote of thanks for his notable services overseas has served to accentuate the scant courtesy which the administration has bestowed upon the new general of the united states army and the homecoming first division and has vividly shown the spell of absenteeism which has had the wilson regime so firmly within its grip says bays an exchange BUT LET us remember that the president while a very able man is tar far from infallible says the albuquerque quer que new mexico journal he has made many mistakes tand and he has changed his mind on almost all tte important questions that have arisen during and before his administration from woman suffrage to keeping us out of war what assurance I have we now that he wa will III not I 1 change his mind on the league 0 of f nations

american independence says the kansas city journal but that subject is very near the hearts of the american people N nor 0 r Is there any proof whatever that the propos ed cd amendments and reservations would weaken the general lorce force ol of the covenant in its most beneficent aspects it if all of 0 the rest 0 0 f the presidents si speeches upon his present tour are to be of the same

one of 0 this class because senator johnson is i busly opposed to the league of nations as expounded and urged by president wilson and is ia giving the other side of the story the journal severely censures the senator and intimates that only bolshevists and pro germans comprise the audiences that attend the meetings to hear and applaud the distinguished westerner when senator johnson visits portland the editor of the journal would do well to attend the meeting heed the logical ot of senator johnson note the person el ot of the vast audience and then apologize for or his unjust slur on the real american citizenship whose only desire is to become enlightened as to just what the much discussed league ot of nations really is and what effect it will have on the future of america it if adopted in its present form DOWN WITH AVITH THU PROFITEER UP IN montana the montana trade coul commission mission has been busy investigating the high cost of living and their probing have uncovered fa facts t s that should land at least a few I 1 of the profiteers pofi in jail and the rest of them put out of business the report says that the greater portion of the increased cost of living is due to abnormal increased cost of the raw material labor and manufacturing fac turing prices and further says tile the fact cannot be denied however that to a certain extent the local jobber the wholesaler and the retailer in in demanding ex excess cessile he margins of profit are also responsible for the present condition then figures are given by the commission showing that the margins of goss profit range from froin 34 per cent on groceries to 67 6 per rent on 13 different lines ot of ladies clothing and shoes 69 p per er cent on mens clothing and shoes in ili seven different lines 62 per cent on dry goods 60 per cent on childrens apparel and 62 per cent on bedding now this is simple robbery and it if the robbers are not punished the then the officials who should prosecute should be made an example of by the victims of the profiteers the utah state legislature is now in session in the recommend recommendations at ions of governor bamberger is one for asked for or by attorney general dan B shields for the purpose of investigating the high cost of 0 living in this state it like conditions exist among the jobbers wholesalers and retailers in utah as in montana and no doubt they do then dan shields will not only gain immortal tame fame but a certainty ot of to re elec tion by putting the money grabbing rascals behind the bars and thus bring down the cost ot of living within reach of the ordinary mortal on oil the other hand it if the appropriation pria tion is made and the political profiteers juggle the and benefits ben elith result only to the jugglers then woe indeed to the politicians kiil STEEL WAR WAK IN TUB THE first fervor and excitement of their strike the union men of 0 the steel industry do not realize the fatal Nse weakness akness of their position tile the tumult the hurrah the armies of idle men the paralyzed plants make them exult as if they were upon 0 n the eve ot of victory and therefore the they Y are blinded to the tact fact that there Is a an element of weakness N aich sooner or later will wreck the i whole machinery of the strike it is not a physical but a moral weakness the union when all camouflage is swept aside is striking tor for the closed shop and the closed shop I 1 is an injustice A revolution which is based on injustice is sure to tail fail at no time in many years has the public been I 1 so set against strikes str ikes so BO unsympathetic with any movement designed to interrupt production A just cause can a afford to wait until production has brought relief from high prices and warded 0 off f f distress and starvation in halt the world an unjust cause could not afford d to wait because its ita injustice would become more apparent day by day consequently th the steel men refused to heed the appeal for or delay made by the president ot of the united states slates in popular sentiment rebutting rebuffing the president and attempting to rule by might over right the steel men have begun their strike lor for a closed shop for several years the steel employ es have been among the best paid wage earners ot of the country na company has accorded its workers better conditions than has the united states steel corporation the public will not tail fail to regard the strike as simply a battle between employed emp loyes and employers tor for as aa gic advantage recognition ot of the union is the leverage by which the union expects to get a strangle hold on the corporation and enforce the closed clos shop at no time has the closed shop appealed to the american people as just and certainly at this tim ewhen the whole nation understands der stands the necessity of increasing production it will li be anathema it if it be true as the union men claim that men have quit work they are guilty of a crime against li humanity li manity for humanity is in want and depends upon all workers as never before to produce to the maximum ot of their power A six months armistice between capital and labor would tide over the worst part ot of the reconstruction period prices would drop the needy all over the world would be fed and clothed and the world would once again be on oil the high road to prosperity and happiness but at the moment when duty called the loudest the steel men laid down their tools and sought to paralyze all industry by wrecking it a basic industry it they have the sympathy ot of any great number outside their own ranks we ie have misunderstood the temper emper ot of the people in this crisis the citizen IN HIS address before the american bar association elihu root put his finger on the crux ot of the situation by saying that th at in spite of all conditions calling for thrift extravagance was never greater than now benjamin franklin might have made the speech it contains wisdom as old as So solomon lonion and some of it consolidates accumulations eions of experience dating back to the stone age under our theory of life every man should earn his own living and provide for his bis future obligations some few have provision made tor them by others but unless they are incompetent they are not fortunate no able bodied deserves a living I 1 which in one way or another is not earned by his own contributions if the people keep on oil selling ten millions of liberty and victory bonds daily to buy lux luxuries unes the time will tome come when they will repent people
