Their assertions that they make an almost profit and often operate at a loss do not seem to make much Impression on either the public or the agencies of Justice. That their statements are not always Ingenuous is Instanced by the following assertion Of the "commercial research department of one of the big five: "The general high price level' Is not due to manipulation. This Is shown by a recent report of the war Industries board, which proves that prices In other countries of Ihe world have risen as much ns or more than they have In the United States, and that this has been true even In countries relntively unaffected by wnr conditions, such as Japan and Australia. The truth Is that Australia Is glutted with food products and Its people are struggling to keep prices up to a profitable level. Also, while there was a big advance In the prices of Japan's chief food, rice, It was admittedly dne to the manipulations of hoarders and profiteers and was the cause of riots and of government action. .

The open season for profiteers has come. If there Is a bright spot In the world's sky, that is It. For the rest the clouds are black enough to suit the most confirmed pessimist Government officials. Investigating bodies, Individual economists dll have been earnestly seeking for the prime causes of the high cost of living. The greedy profiteer who battens on the misfortunes of the people la the moat easily discerned of those causes and la going to be the first to be dealt with. All the sympathy he gets must come from himself. President Wilson appeared before congress Friday and delivered a scholarly essay on the subject, which Included various recommendations for legislative action, and told what the government already Is doing In the way of curbing the operations of the He urged the permanent profiteers. extension of the food control act, a law regulating cold storage, a law requiring that all goods entering Interstate shipment be marked with the producers' price, prompt enactment of the pending capital Issues bill, and, what seems to the writer most Important of all, the passage of a law requiring federal licensing of all corporations engaged In Interstate commerce. The president did not overlook the opportunity to push the Immediate ratification of the peace treaty and 'league covenant lie devoted much of his message to assertions, in varied form,- that until peace Is established only provisional and makeshift results can be accomplished In the way of reducing living costs. There can be no settled conditions anywhere' In the world, he declared, until the treaty Is out of the way. Such views did not meet with the approval of most of the Republican congressmen, and tlieir Indignation was aroused by the fact that the president used the domestic Issue as a weapon In the contest over the Leagne of Nations. -- those relating to the packing Industry. However the government believes the sugar men also are profiteering and three ofllclala of the Pittsburgh branch of a Chicago concern, were arrested. It la asserted that scalpers have vast quantities of sugar stored away nnd where that dealers are forced they can and pay what Is asked. :In this, as In the cose of other food products, the accused say the government Is partly to blame for shipping vnst supplies to Europe and thus creating a domestic shortage. The concerted attacks by federal and local authorities caused Immediate and sharp declines In the wholesale prices of many foods, but there urns little evidence that the consumer was profiting hy the declines, which seemed to put some of the onus on the retailers. to-bu- The federal trade commission lately has been making an Inquiry Into the shoe business, and lias informed congress that the high prices of shoes are due to the unprecedented and unjustified profits taken by the slaughterers, tanners, manufacturers nnd denlera.

In Franco tlie workers have sensibly agreed to postpone all strikes for six months and meantime they will Join with the employers and the government In earnest efforts to solve tlie problems of wages and prices to stimulate greater production, which alone. It Is believed, van save their coutnry from economic disaster. Jt would be an unmeasurable blessing If some of the common sense that has moved the French laborers to keep up production could be Instilled In the. American workers so they might realise that in cutting off production they are cutting their own throuta. The Austrian peace delegates made s to the treuty by the allies. These were unexpectedly mlbl nnd the of the Austrians are almost pathetic. They assert that too much territory Is taken from tlieir country, citing especially the Tyrol and southern Bohemia, and say the war debt loaded on them Is so heavy they are not sure the Austrian people can exist under such conditions. counter-proposal- Following up the memorandum the locomotive engineers presented to . the president, fourteen railroad unions acting as u unit hnnded.-tDirector General Hines a demand for wage Increases with a general program designed to meet the present crisis.

President Wilson, however, now reveals the fact that the Japanese peace, delegates gave substantially the same promise In the Interallied conference of April 80 without any reference to the agreement of 1915. The president believes the Japanese statement clears 'up the doubt about the Shantung affair. Secretary of State Lansing told the senate for elgn relations committee that China had never protested to the president against the Shantung settlement by tlie allied peace council; that the clause was accepted by the decision of the president and that he, Mr. Lansing, did not believe lt was needed to obtain Japans adherence to the Leqgue of Nations. r Secretary of War Baker has presented to the house and senate committees on military affairs the administration bill for a permanent military policy. It calls for a regular army with a pence strength of 510.000 and a war strength of 1.250.000, the reserves to be provided thronqh a modified form of the selective semce act.

Now with that report as a basis President Wilson has directed the department of Justice to Institute at once civil and criminal proceedings against the big five. The attorney general stated that he was satisfied the evidence developed Indicated a dear violation of the anti-trulaws, and that Isador J. Kresel of New York Was in charge of the prosecution. The peckers are to be accused of unfairly and illegally using their power to manipulate live dock markets, to restrict interstate and International supplies of foods, to control the prices of dressed meets' and other foods, to defraud both the producers and the consumers of foods, to crush competition, to secure special privileges from railroads, stock yards companies find municipalities, and to profiteer.
