Let the food profiteers take their profits while they can. Soon there won't be any profits, and perhaps no business either Verily the lightis breakng in certain high places, if onlp it will continue to shine. In England the Archbishop of Can-terbury is again proposing some great changes He suggests that it should be the privilege of every Englishman to own land, and that land should be nationalized. And he says that industrial profits should be limited and that there should be greater equal ty and opportunity for the common people. He thinks the banks should be limited and that all credit should be placed under the control of the state. He has five points. One, Equality of opportunity. Two Jobs for all who can work Three, Security for all in need Four, the ending of privilege for the few. Five, Preservation of civil liberty for all The world does move, slowly but surely. A poor "reliefer' an aged man in one of the states, com-mitted suicide because his check was stopped and he knew not whither to turn or where to go. He had one relative, a broth-er, far away who could not raise money to come to his funeral which was held without ceremony except a few words by the undertaker. At about the same minute in a near neighbor-hood a multimillionaire passed away. Before dying he had three of the world's best specialists and three highly trained nurses. He was buried at great expence in one of the finest cemeteries of the country. There is nothing calls to humanity from his grave, but from the grave of the poor man comes a call to men to resolve that they will do their utmost to build a better and kinder and nobler civilization, and a remembrauce that the "reliefer"' was a martyr to our blundering, cruel, blind system. . Thousands of good, kind, patient, anxious mothers are ap pealing to government and military authorities, and to radio and press, to save their sons in the ervice from the deluge of drink with which designing men are flooding the camps. Why should not these appeals be heeded? Those who profit by it are deaf to every plea. They and the loathsome parvenues who make it their business to bring prostitutes to the camps and bases lay in wait for the boys and for greedy profits lurj them into debauchery and degradation. The decent peo- - pie will not and should not stand for this. Prayers are aseend ing for our boys and then we permit the liqor vendors to inca- - pacite and break them down. Drinking and drunkeness and kindred evils may lose the war for America. Heed the mothers. ' It was the great French Field Marshall Haig who said: "It is the business of the churches to make my business im-possible." In answer to that some one says. "The churches cannot stop war. ' To this another replied, "But we can never stop war without the churches." There are some things that you niav give away and still retain them. Among them are love, kindness and knowledge or intelliKence. No matter how much you give away of these you never lessen the amount you had before you started giving. Love never diminishes, no matter how much you give to others; it really increases. And 30 it is with kindness and knowledge. SESjS Long before Kellog spoke there was a greater man spoke, Woodrow Wilson, who literally went to martyrdom for his dream of peace. He warned the world and he raised a shield against future wars, but his ideas were betrayed and beaten down into the dust. As a result of our ignorance we have the present world debacle. He gave us the means to end war. "A heavenly vision, born of love and faith, Ensnared his heart, but we who lived by hate Refused to see." But while men like Kellog were warning against war cer tain powers were preparing and planning at fever heat for the catastrophe which is now enveloping the world in chaos.It was not the fault of the common people save as they were mislead by their leaders. It seems that the world leaders had plenty of warnings about the terribleness of the present war. A great man, Frank . Kellog, spoke out boldly some ten or twelve years ago and haid: " Western civilization will dissapear in universal chaos if involve!! in another world war. Have we so soon forgotten the four years of terrible carnage, forgotten the 'million of men who gave their lives, who made the supreme sacrifice? gjTheir sacrifice should inspire the pledge never again to inflict hu-manity with such a crime. ' Talking about the results of de or inflation , here is what hap-pened to the American farmers during the last period of defla-tion and depression. So beware, lest it come again. Farmers were actually going under. They were facing peasantry and a poverty equal to that of the Mexican peons. Farm,"debts increased $11,000,000,000. The farms lo?t more than $20 000.000,000 in value. Live stock declined 29 per cent; crops 17 per cent; wheat 36 per cent; sheep 4ri per cent; 6000 banks closed their doors; 5,000,000 fa-- m workers were driven to the industrial centers. At that time we believed that it was all the result of the action of financial conspira-tors and the administration did little or nothing. Such is the terible truth about inflation. Farmers may thank their stars ,j that the president is trying to his utmost to save them froma repetition of this. What alarming amounts of grain and sugar and molasses are being consumed by brewers and distillars in the nefarious iquor traffic. How muc rubber and gasoline and oil and material could be put to better use. What manpower would berealesed. What relief on court dockets. Thousands fewer candidates for jails and prisons and less inmates for our asy- lums and poorhouses. How many happier homes. What a money waste this traffic is. An enormous amount of war material could be obtained during a single year from this waste without a single penny cost to our government. It would cover the whole war cost for more than a month. But there is not a warning voice fromthe White House or congress, nor ny restriction or prohibiting measures! Hitler and the Japs feed liquor and dope to the people they would destroy, but don't permit their own men to use the stuff. Suppose it would happen here in the fair State of Utah, what has happened in Poland, and other places. It would, if the Hitler regime should win the war. Better get on our knees and thank God that we are living in the good old United States of America. Don't let us loose it!
