PROBLEMS FACING
STRICKEN WORLD
(Continued. From' Pae One)
la an effort on the'pnrt of great" groups
of working men to compel recognition
of their demands. ' Th.V eoek to se
cure their-objective by force. No al
Nrrt'anoe is . made for the fact that
methods- Justifiable In war are not
right In-peacp. Few- people will deny
that .war .Is the supreme. .expression
of force.
.Many men got their first taste of
freeh air and decent food while In the
army. Very properly the allied jrov-
ernments gave the best of everything
to the men in the armies. It Isn't diffi
cult to get accustomed to good food
and fresh air; It la hard to go back
to poor food and the tenements. Back
home, many of the demobilized sol
diers are not eating . as well or as
much as they ate during their service.
Notwithstanding the rigid discipline
of army life, men are treated as men.
The humblest man In the ranks has
rights that must be respected. This
li not always the case In civil life.
Then, too, while In uniform the pri
vate was .made much of. Class dis
tinction was obliterated. . He was
looked upon as one of his country's
defenders. Since he has been demobi
lised he has been forgotten and neg
lected. This has. soured him,- He re
ents It. Social distinctions have
-otne back.' He la only a working mnn
now. .
Another 'cause of unrest among the
working mnn of Europe grows out o'
the war.-. Mobilization took millions
of men from their Jobs. A great short--nge
of labor resulted. Employers
were forced to compete to get -men.
The usual competition was among
men to get Jobs. The In w of supply
and demand affected the labor market
wages went" up. The soldier went off
'o war. While he was In the trenches
'he wages back home were high. Hl
'ins was small. ' Our fighting met
rcre not Interested In pay. The:
went to fight for' "a "principle
vVlth tile-coining of peace a larg
piantlty of labor was dumped upo
) market. The demobilized me
'Ashed for employment. Comrade
"umpeted for Jobs. The same old lav
of supply and demand nem wages to
ogganlng. The number 'of men whe
anted Jobs .was much greater than
lie number of places available.' The
ettirnlng soldier seeking a - Job was
ITered a much smaller 'wage than he
;new was paid for the same 'work
-hlle he had been fighting. It In-
' ensed him.' He figured that 'he'' had
,'lven' four years out of his life, hart
.-ome home . tired and broke. He look
d upon the decline In wages as a
losltive discrimination against him.
;. Comparison. Breeds Discontent
Everywhere 1 have heard -these men
Miy : - 'Ve' are Tout of- luck. - The
'tunds played oud we were .applauded
, vheir we left to fight. While we were
ione the wages went up. We don t
begrudge ' the men' who stayed at
home the wages they got, but It'
(liinin funny thnt when we come back
ilovn go wages. The cost of living
don't go down. I guess we're out of
luck."
I found two phrases Inseparable in
the speed; of the discontented, "the
high cost of living-;"- "the prollteer.v
'.Vorklngnien with whom 1 talked
freely admitted thnt some. of the high
ost of living was the legitimate re
nilt of the great demand for every
hlng and the natural shortage, but In
ihe same breath they Insisted that
nufli of It was due to the mercenary.
Iioulish profiteer.
The profiteer took blood money dur
hg the world's greatest tragedy. He
xacted usury from the triiler at home
und the fighting man at the front.
He drew dividends out of the tears
'ind walls of broken-hearted women
und frlght-strlcken . children. . He
minted his gold out of agony, starva
tion, heartaches. ' . He.'stunds today
he Judas of the war, the most de
spised man of earth.
The profiteer Is not an Englishman,
i Frenchman. Itnllnn or American.
He Is. found In every country of the
vorld. - a - man without' -nationality,
without conscience, without humanity.
He la the pimp of civilization. He Is
TIII on the Job.
The profiteer has given' the United
States .a .terrible black eye. A com--non
comment of Europe Is, "The
United States made money out of the
war." These people do not refer to
the money we made legitimately.
They point to the fact, a fact that
'ias been given" great publicity In En
ope, that In August. 1914. there were
i bout 7.000 millionaires In rhe United
States, while at (he time of the sign
'ng o( the armistice It was estimated
'he millionaire colony had Increased
by 2.1.000. making a total of 30000
millionaire In the United State. Tho
profiteer Is still on the Job. He In
holding up the world, a starring, cold
world.
' Profiteering Case In Point.
Under date of November IT, 1019. J.
S. Baolie & Co., members of the New
York stock ercuange. In their financial
letter say; "In mercautile circles
there Is proceeding at the present time
a vast amount of speculation on a
very large scale In commodities. An
Incident is cited to us of one con
cern that Is carrying $15,000,000 worth
of vegetable oils, which are in great
demand, and the concern is holding
tbem for higher prices. This la a
distinct damage to the consumers, and 1
keeps living prices In these thioga, j
used dally, at top and increasing lev
els. Speculation of this kind is a
real detriment to the community."
" The pair of shoe the workingman

Those who know tell us that the

class, eatsat
least one-third
more food than Is
necessary or safe,
and that seven
eighths of our
d I sea s es a r e
caused from Im
proper food and
also, In large degree. Improper eating.
Horace Fletcher, who gave to the
world so much on t lie way to eat and
what to eat, advocated the long masti
cation of foods, chewing twice as long,
and In consequence the appetite Is
satisfied with much less food.
- A simple experiment which has
been often repeated is that of chewing
a mouthful of bread- and butter until
It swallows Itself, without any effort.
It will develop a flavor In the mouth
which will be a surprise to all rapid
eaters. The starch is partly changed
by the action of the saliva which la
never noticed wheu food Is bolted.
On a busy day the house mother who
can serve a wholesome one-piece dish
which will be sufficiently satisfying Is
using economy both of time and of
fuel.. There are any number of such
dishes from chowlers to casserole
dishes. The following has been given
several times hut may be repeated, it
Is' so good : Put sufficient sliced pota
toes in a shallow hriklng pan, for the
family, cover with a finely sliced
onion and pork chops fried pn one side
r nd pluced cooked sjde .down on the
potatoes. 1 Season well and bake until
the potatoes are. tender. No moisture
need be added unless the potatoes havt
lost much moisture.

URGED TO BUILD HOMES NOW
Labor Department Prompts Those In.

The home builder he who builds

rt purposes appears to be getting
ad way with his building plans.
Tals'especlally Is noted In the central
yckt. The home-bulldlng program
Will be facilitated and augmented if
small Investment money Is made avail
able for building loans. In one or two
communities this Is being attempted
by private organizations, brought to
gether for this sole purpose. In oilier
and more numerous cases the regular
banks are giving thought fo the prob
lem. The bulldlng-and-loan Interests
already have formulated a plnn under
which a system of federal home loan
banks would enable them to rediscount
their first real-estate, mortgages and
make available for further loans more
than $1,000,000,000 of their assets.
While the Department of I.nbor Is
endeavoring to co-operate with state
ttnd municipal authorities In getting
uuder way road building snd public
Improvements, and with private Inter
ests Id their more extensive building
operations. It Is convinced that home
building, for the use of the builder
rather than for rental, must be looked
to as an Important factor In providing
better employment for labor during
the transition from war to peace pro
duction, and for the stimulation of
business. For this reason the Depart
ment of Labor Is making a determined
drive for a nation-wide 'Own your

Natural Desire Is Not to Get tna

(Copyright.)
When you spend yo"ur money you
naturally want to get all you cno in
return. No one can criticize yon for
having that desire. Only those who
are commonly referred to as having
"more money than sense" throw their
money awny. All others are careful to
see that they do not get the worst of
any bargain. But one has to be able
to look farther thnn the end of his
nose if he Is to be sure that he is get
ting the most that be can get for bis
money.
That Is the defense of the man who
buys from the mall order house instead
of patronizing the merchants In his
own town. He says he can get more
for his money when he buys from the
mail order mnn than when he spends
his money at home. But in arriving
at that conclusion he certainly has not
been able to look further than the end
of his nose.
In most cases the man who buys
goods from' a mall order house does
s:i because he thinks he Is getting the
goods for loss money than he would
have to pay for them at the store In
his own tow a. He thinks he Is look
ing out for No. 1 and he says It Is
not his fuult if the merchant In hie
(own cannot make any money and la
forced to go out of business. He over
looks the fact that lie Is likely to be
as hard hit as anyone else when that
Merchant closes his doors but, leav
ing that probability out of considera
tion, the chances are about 10 to 1 thnt
the buyer hns really lost money on his
deal with the mall order roan.
Price Not Only Consideration.
If buying an article of any kind,
whether it be a house end lot or a pa
per of pins, the p-ice Is not the only
thing to be considered by any means.
You ore not In the habit of going Into
a store when you want to buy a suit of

"Give me the cheapest suit of clothes
you have In the house." You want the

Just as Goodyear is successful in building
extreme vaiue into the Goodyear Tires that
go on the highest-priced motor cars, so is
Goodyear successful in supplying unusual
worth in Goodyear Tires for smaller cars.
Into the making of Goodyear Tires in the
30x3-, 30x3V2-, and 31x4-inch sizes have gone
the full advantages of Goodyear experience,
skill and modern facilities.
The results of this unusual endeavor are
easily available to every owner of a Ford,
Chevrolet, Dort, Maxwell, or any other car
requiring the sizes mentioned.

Usually" wafif th cheapest thing you
can find. -
man may delude himself Into be
lieving that when he beys a s ilt of
clothes from a mail order hou e for
$10 he la saving money, but wliat la
there to Justify htm in such a belief
The mere fact that he la getting a suit
for $10 does not moan that he la Rav
ing money. Th chances ere that if
he should go to the man who runs th
clothing store In his own town and
ask for It he could get a suit of clothes
for $10 and the chances are also that
It would be Just as good if not a bet
ter bargain than the suit which he
could get from the mall order house
for the same sum. It la not the price
be pays that shows whether he 1 get
ting a bargain or not. It Is the qual
ity of goods that he gets for hia money
that counts.
Can Undersell kail Order House.
The home merchant can sell as
cheaply as the mall order man If he
sells as cheap goods as the mall order
mnn sells. Ills expenses are not as
heavy as those of the moll order man.
He pays less rent In proportion to
the business he does, his taxes are less
In proportion to the capital invested.
His advertising bills are less than
those of the mall order man In propor
tion to the volume of his sales. H
can undersell the mall order man at
day In the year If he wishes to f(
only goods of the same quality an
style of those sold by the mail order
man, but he doesn't do this because he
knows that the majority of the people
In his town do not want that quality
and style of goods. Therefore he kepe
In stock goods of all qualities and all
prices. He has the $10 suit for the
man who thinks that he can get more
for his money by buying a suit at that
price thnn he can by buying a better
one for $20, but he tells the customer
just what he Is buying.
The next time you think about buy
ing something from a mall order house,
If you ever do think of such a thing,
go first to your home merchnnt and
ask to see the article which you tire
thinking of buying.
Ready to Compare Prices.
Your home merchant Is a buslnesf
man. lie gets the best values he can
for his tnotiey when he buys goods, and
be does not expect his customers to
do anything else. All that he asks, In
return for the favors he does bit cus
tomers and the things he does for the
good of his community Is that be be
given on opportunity to meet th in
sidious competition ot the mail order
house. He Is perfectly willing to hav
his prices and his values compared to
those of the mall order house, but he
has a Just complaint when he la not
given a chance to make this compari
son. If all buyers would take the value as
well a the price of the article they
are buying Intfi consideration, the marl
order houses would all go out of busi
ness tomorrow.
