Prominent among the causes of the war which the govern
ment wishes emphasized by all who discuss current events, is
the matter of keeping and breaking of treaties. As was clear
ly set forth by President' Wilson in his note to the Pope, our
people can place no faith in the word of the present rulers of
Germany. It is of no use to make peace agreements with
people who will not keep agreements.
The German government, when it violated the neutrality
of Belgium, expressly admitted that it was violating interna
tional law. It excused it on the excuse, as Kaiser William said
in his letter to President Wilson, that it was necessary on
"strategical grounds." According to that principle any agree
ment whatever could be violated for the reason that it would
be advantageous to one of the parties to break it. Germany
also knows perfectly well that when she sinks our ships and
murders our citizens she is violating all law, treaties, and agree
ments. All human relations are dependent on the honorable keep
ing of pledges. In private life the man who won't keep them
is kicked out of the business world. It is no use trying to deal
witn him.

The Food Administrator Writes Us:
"The use of baking powder bremU made of corn and other coarse flours instead of
( .icnt wheat flour is recommended by the Conservation Division of the Food
Administration. The wheat needed for export is thus conserved, and at the aaino
time healthful food for our own people is provided. The circulation of recipe, pro
viding for these uses would be of assistance in carrying out our plans."

get, and that no lawyer would do a piece of work for $5.00 if
he could $10 for it.
This may be true, yet capitalists should realize that if their
industries are to remain on a secure foundation, they must
charge only reasonable prices
years ago tried out this idea of charging all they could get.
They were quite defiant, and some of the companies made
very big money.
The big profits created popular antagonism. This result

panies went out of business, while others with weeping and
