Shoe dealers' and manufacturers predict that before the end of 1917 the price of women'u fancy boots will be $35 a pair, and that all other foot wear will be correspondingly high. Ere long, n pair of all-leather shoes will be a curiosity in this country. Heretofore, most of our shoe ma terial has been imported from South America. The U. S. furnishes only 25 per cent of our leather. But blood red Europe, having: in spite of the war lost no whit of its business OTUincn, has contracted for the citire output of South America for the next two years. And the irony of the thing is that they clinched the dc:il with (Amer Photo of the "boycott shoe" which gear P'cture combines OF INTEREST TO WOMEN Shepherd's Pie.

Another is promoting j the principles of what are termed tha liliryan treaties, which have already J been entered into between the United l States and nearly all the principal nn- tions of the world, excepting the Gen liirai powers. A thin movement innl i ,u . ... , . ; ; the establishment of an intcrnation-1 court, to which disnutes would Im ' referred for judicial settlement. There is a fourth view, however, which is not yet crystallized into an organization, but which is radically opposed to the first two proposals. "The solution of the international peace problem, however, is hardly more important to the United States at this time than many of the other questions that have arisen from tha war and are confronting us now for im-1 Average "Shoe manufacturers of this city have come nearer accomplishing this than have Eastern makers. The open work shoo which has become so popu lar for summer wear throughout the country und which is a product of this city, will be nut on th mUi muu a few variations in the near future for j $2.50 per pair. "This shoe, hnwovsi. Viuo n,.,.i;.,..i value for year rounrl nni., i that portion of the country where the woatner is mild enough to permit it. Nevertheless, the f I t . aiiu VI tllC future will be built along these lines, ami uiKiouutctuy it will hnvo undis guised woouen heels." This shoe, of course, is for use in mild first used down to present-day foot- mediate settlement. In view of the generally accepted necessity for ade quate military preparedness, immedi ate steps should be taken to discover the reason, and the means of counter acting it, for the apparent apathy, if not opposition, on the part of the wage-earning and agricultural classes of the country to all proposals for national defense. One reason is the widespread agitation of the pacifist bodies, which has resulted in develop ing a false sense of security. But thero are some curious phases of the situa tion that are not so clearly under stood. For instance, at a time when, in all the great countries of Europe, the working men are pouring out their life's blood and the working women are making sacrifices to save their countries from destruction, we have in this country the spectacle of a body of professedly anti-patriotic people, com posed of radical preachers, radical college professors, socialists, anarch ists and extreme pacifists, viciously denouncing all proposals to prenar? debating the question, "Is this coun- try fit to be defended?' And this they are doing in spite of the gen erally recognized fact that our coun try is today almost equally hated by the people of the Entente Allies an l those of the central powers, and thut, while today we might have to prepare for attack by the central power.! should they win, tomorrow such attack might come from the Allies should they be victorious; or the next day w; might have both groups to fiirht in case they should arrive at an adjust ment of their differences, and shou'd feel that our gold and yrent wpnlth might be needed to pay some of their staggering war debts, or that South America might lie a good country to divide up.

H.PEARE&S0N of an education and a job. We are told that the Salvation Army in England is collecting large sums of money for the advertised purpose of shipping the war widows and orphans to other countries on the plea that England will not be able to care for the mil lions made dependent by war. "The proposal to give the govern ment a free hand in dealing with th admission of aliens, just as it will doubtless be empowered to deal. through the tariff commission, with tho admission of products, having in mind the interests of this nation alone. will be considered at the annual meet ing, and if peace, whether temporary or permanent, should come out of the present efforts, the United States might have to face this vital prcb'.om very soon. The controversy bet wee ,1 the rail roads and the brotherhood' is another matter fraught with peri! to the coun try until it is dtfi-.itely settled Un less wiped off the statute books the revolutionary legislative measure, with which it was adjusted, is likely to result in a number of evils only lesa harmful than the alternative of a strike. For years .the National Civil Federation and all friends of what is termed 'the labor movement' have been promoting collective bariraininir as the most intelligent and humane method of dealing letween employers and employes. And yet when put to the crucial tjst ;lie highest tvuo of collective bargaining utterly failed be tween the largest and most intelligent organizations of wage-earners and of capital. In view of this shattering of some of tho illusions of the friends of arbitration, mediation, and collective bargaining the federation's commit tee on mediation legislation began at once tho drafting of a proposed sub stitute measure to present to congress and tho president, which it hopes will prove more effective in the future. This bill and the reasons for it will also be discussed at the forthcoming meeting." t t I
