ARE ALL PROFITEERS? with shipbuilding in which the wages have lured thousands from other pur suits, thus forcing an increased pay in -these. Perhaps the worst feature of the whole situation is the druf! made op farm labor. The harvest I fields, especially of the middle west arc calling loudly for help, und the situation is really serious. Above shipbuilding, and all ,other industries ths farms are pre-eminently import ant. Without foodstuffs, especially the cereals, there would be little use for ships, or anything else. Thero would be nothing for them to carry, and there would bo no sending men to aid the allies. There would be indeed a surrendering of the world's freedom to Prussian autocracy. The question naturally arises arc not the American people us a whole profiteering? In stead of pursuing our avocations as usual, all of us are dcmnmling greater j returns for whatever we have to sell. It may be merchandise, it may be foodstuffs, it may be labor, in fact it is all of these and then a great deal Worst Feature Is the Draft Made on Farm Labor. While wages in nil Vines have nd vanced since the United States en tered the war, they have not ad vanced equally. Some callings com mand almost any wage they choose to demand, and these naturally draw from all other pursuits, notes the Cap ital Journal. This is notaMv the ease more. It is true that the price of liv ing has so advanced that greater re turns are necessary, yet if these great er returns were equally divided, it would make little difference whether returns were what they used to be or what they are now. . If everyone received double wages j and paid double for everything he used the final accounting would show but little change in results. We arc spending, .with what wo loan the al lies, about $24,000,000,000 a year. Of this sum it is purposed by congress to rnisc about one-third by tnxation of many kinds nnd hues. While the bal ance is .borrowed from the people, it will eventually have to be paid by them. The higher wages and the greater cost of everything simply in creases the sum we will have to. pay, will finally have to pay. To the' thrifty, the era of high pricc-3 offers a splendid opportunity to stive, for tho increased wages and prices permit this despite the higher cost of living for tho reason that there is a larger mar gin left between earning:-! and expendi tures. The thrifty and the saving will profit by higher prices, hut the great body of, Americans will not, simply because they do not save. I!1C- INDIANA WOMAN FOUND I ItELIKF Mrs,. Thos. II. Davis, R. I).
