The readjustment period can be. hastened if the general public will ap praise basic conditions in their true light and prepare to act ac cordingly, uiten. tne' true situation may not seem attractive. There will be a temptation to try temporary expedients of one sort or another. $ome of these may be good or seem good but in com iacts are that most of them will fail. Water runs down hill and the law of gravity cannot be altered. ; Because the following from a financial statement by the Na tional City Bank Has the ring of sincerity it is hereby reproduced by theast Oregonian in the hope it may be of benefit to read ers. "We cannot look for a restoration of full employment and prosperity until something like the old balance between agricul turftjand the other industries is restored. If there was any pros-1 pect of a rise in the prices of farm products, it might be argued that the balance would be restored in that way, but there is little basis for such expectation. The prices of 'our farm products are aepenaent upon tne prices at which the surplus can be sold in foreign markets To cut down our production for the purpose of raising prices would be an attempt to sustain prices on an ar tificial basis, a basis of scarcity. The farmer would have less to sell, and the attempt at curtailment would check the decline in the cost of living and the downward tendency of costs in the other industries, with the result that the farmer would continue to pay high prices for everything he bought. The remedy does not lie that way, but in bringing the prices of other things down to the level of farm products. When a bushel of wheat, a bale of cotton and a pound of pork will buy as many goods in the stores as in 1919, the farmer will be able to resume his position in the trading circle; not before. ' "Let nobody think this is the..farmer's problem, exclusivefy or chiefly. The merchant, 4he manufacturer, the wage earner of every factory town, is directly interested in it, and has a part to perform. There will be no general resumption of business until the industries are back in balance. Manufacturers need not assure themselves that when present stocks are exhausted, orders will come and the industries will revive. There may be spurts of revival, but they will be false starts until the balance is restored. Wage-earners will be mistaken if they think that the matter of wages is wholly between themselves and their employers; the goods cannot be distributed unless prices are within reach of the great mas3 of the population. The effect will be the same if the wage-earners are not fairly treated. They should not be asked to take lower money-wages vnless retail prices come down, so that the reduced wages will have about the same purchasing power. The problem is to main tain stable relations between all the factors in industry. Public Cinintnn shmiirl rail linnn oarli in n Viia f'l noe r me. il jT - f , . P"1; , . educational Institutions which receive trvciiuuuy must, gel away irom me Idea tnai wages ana government support was one of the prices are fixed by arbitrary decrees, or by agreements between j planks in the boycott platform tor- empioyers an demployes. Most of our troubles are due" to these 1 mulatea Dv K- Ganum, native teao. superficial assumptions. The truth is that there are great eco nomic laws which hold society together, and fix the relations between classes and interests beyond the power of agreements or legislation to change them. The power to create confusion and to delay readjustment of course exists, but nobody is likely to gain anything by that policy. "There are great industries, dealing with the farmers, which are taking the position that they are unable to reduce their costs and therefore cannot see their way to reduce their selling prices. !f this is because they dislike to propose wage reductions to their employes, it is a mistaken view, for they cannot hope to give full employment unless thay can maintain sales. The employes are entitled to know this and probably know it already. If it is be cause they have large inventories of high cost supplies upon which they do not want to take losses, they are in the same po sition as the farmer who must sell a high-cost crop on a low-price market. It must be said to them as is said to the farmer, that it is not past costs but future costs that must govern prices now Replacement costs are the ones to be considered What can a new competitor in the field, who starts with a new stock, or with ' materials bought at the new price level, afford to do? What enn each man afford to do as his part of getting industry back to settled, normal conditions? Spirit of Rebellion Among Na tives Develops to Point Where People Establish Own Colleges.

To date several Indian colleges have declared themselves in sympathy with Gandhi's movement and students have abandon ed their classes and set up new col leges. In Ahmedabad, under the chancel lorship of Oandhl, a National College was recently opened. The inaugural ceremony was attended by over 3,000 Indian parents and students. The student movement is not spora dic and fleeting according to the in formation reaching the India Bureau, but rather a serious attempt at estan- Kshing a new national education sys tem. To consider further the stautus of the student body in India at tlv present time of national crisis a con ference declares that "it is now high time that the students should asaeri. their corporate existence aad decide together the line of action that may be desirable in the best interests of the country." In the wake of the new movement has come considerable apprehension on the part of the government, follow td by measures of repression, as lit 1919, the India Bureau is Informed. Two editors of the Punjab have been arrested, one already convicted.

"'' '" " - -The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company, representing a payroll of approximately $3,000,000 per year in Oregon, has reached a point beyond which it cannot,goith its present income; It h as asked for higher rates which will en able it to maintain its service, meet its payroll obligations and earn a reasonable return upon Its investment in Oregon., If it obtains this it can carry on ita con struction program, offer more work in Oregon, enlarge its payrolls and .take Its proper partjh the progress of this state. If ;t cannot secure' adequate rates it must limit its expansion in every way, abandon its plans for extensions and lay c . v ;.' . off its construction crews. -' " ' ' , , '... The rates asked for will not work a hardship upon any individual; thay represent but a small increase per station over present rates, but in the aggregate would permit the telephone company to continue to fully serve the public, carry out its plans for the development of Oregon, and d,o its part in creating and maintain- ' ing the prosperity which is essential to this state. Adequate service is dependent upon adequate rates.?. lliilllllliil!!!!!!!
