rageous exactions uf prufitlcrs by es

have p.nver to compel traders to re
fund exorbitant profits and to impose
forms of punishments.
due method of bringing profiteers
to terms is to first compel them to
restore their Ill-gotten profits and
then display for one. month 111 their
shops an official account of their
Kooning methods and the punishment
imposed upon them.
These steps are the results of pub
lic exasperation over the excessive
profits taken by retailors.
The Italian government first tried
other methods to shame the liomnn
shopkeepers into charging a fair and
honest profit. One of these efforts
was to compel the retailers to publish
the price they asked for every article;
but it was (if no avail.
Now the people are restoring to the
new provincial arbitral commission
which seems likely to achieve results.
One of the cases recently handled j
oy the commission was that of two
chemists who hail charged from 47S
per cent to !'i( per cent profit. One
of the chemists had charged a pur
chaser ?7Ho for a tube of anti-dipii
theretic serum which had cost him 90
cents, wholesale.
The arbitral commission compelled
him to restore to the buyer all except
lt'O per cent profit and tho druggist
was compelled to hang in his shop a
record of the case against him.
In another case a wholesale station

on a quire of p:tper ivns compelled to
refund all except a fair profit. I
The actions of the commission are I
hailed with delight by people of the I

THE TROUBLE IN SILESIA.
MANY people are wondering just what the trouble in Up
per Silesia is all about There is a two sided row under
way there and France and England have different ans
wers as to "what should be done. Altogether the subject i3 one
of extreme interest.
Some line on the facts, from the Polish standpoint, are pro
vided by John IL Fin.ley, former commissioner of education in
New York who has been in Warsaw as a representative of the
Now York Times. Mr. Finley says that as he went through Ber
lin he heard on every hand references to Poland as the "unruly
child" but as he got into Poland he heard the other side of the
story. ,
The following is from Mr. Finley 's report:
"This whole Upper Silesian question has been a series of tra
gedies for the Poles. In the first place "the Big Four" were go
ing to give it to Poland outright. Clemenceau wrote a letter
saying that they were to have It. "Then something happened,
and Lloyd George protested. He sent word to Paderewski, who
was then in Paris, trying to protect Poland's interests, that Up
per Silesia would not be given outright, but that an immediate
plebiscite would be held to decide to whom it should go. Pader
ewski, of course, objected, but without avail, and the plebiscite
was finally determined upon to take place between six and eigh
teen months after the date.
"Thinking1 that the plebiscite might take place within six
months, both sides stirred up everybody. Both thought they
must be prepared, and the people of Upper Silesia were made
the objects of the most.vic-lent propaganda from each side. This
went on for more than two years. The Poles are not phlegmatic
people. It is easy to imagine the consequent state of their
nerves. During that period they endured a great deal.
. "In the summer of 1919, the Germans started making trou
ble, and the allies gave the Poles no help. Then the decision of
the allies in allowing these born in Silesia but living elsewhere
to come back and vote was questionable justice. Many of these
absentees so voting had no more intention of ever living in Siles
ia again than Silesian citizens in America. Naturally the Poles
felt aggrieved that absentee voters should be allowed to have
any say in the matter. They asked then that the vote of these
be kept separate so that one could know what was the vote of
the real residents as opposed to those imported for the occasion,
but even this was refused them.
, ,"0n March 20, the day for the plebiscite, came, and, in spite
of predictions of all kinds of trouble, the election went off per
fectly quietly. This was due largely to Adalbert Korfanty, the
Polish leader, who rules his people with an iron hand. The Ger
mans were provocative enough, but Korfanty, who is a great
figure and is worshipped by his people, kept his crowd in hand.
"Then, a few days ago, the word got out that the commission
had made its report, and that in it the English and Italians were
for giving only an infinitesimal part of Upper Silesia to Poland,
and that the French alone had stood out for them. That there
was absolutely no truth in the story makes no difference, except
to strengthen the suspicion that the Germans started it, with the
idea of sirring up the Poles, so that they would prejudice their
case. At any rate, that is what happened.
"Both Germans and Poles have had their secret military or
ganizations in Silesia from the start. The whole region is brist
ling with arms. When the Poles thought the allies had decided
against them they simply went out and took over the govern
ment. The allied troops have tried to maintain order ,and blood
has been shed.
This is briefly the story a3 I have heard it the failure of
those to whom the Poles looked, as a child to its parents, to keep
promises which of course should not have been made if they
could not be kept; the consequent and cumulative disappoint
ments; the unfairness of admitting outsiders in making self-determination
; two years' tension, and, finally, the reported de
cision that aDDeared to iimore the result of the plebiscite, a re
sult which, it should be remembered, has been reached wholly
under German functionaries. This is Poland's side of the ques
tion, at any rate.
"The Polish government has done all that a coalition govern
ment could do. It has forbidden the recruiting of volunteers to
take part in the uprising. It has closed the border. Sympathy
has been expressed with the feelings of the Upper Silesians, but
disapproval of their action. Korfanty was not permitted to re
sign, but was summarily dismissed from office. But the govern
ment is between the devil and the deep sea. Nothing short of
flat disapproval and disavowal will satisfy the alliesand noth
ing short of complete condemnation of the course of the allies
will satisfy the great mass of the people, who are holding sol-i-iTin
demonstrations in behalf of those who cannot share in the
blessings of a united Poland after long years of partition.
"It is obvious to any outsider, of course, that the Poles in
Silesia should have awaited the decision of the allies and then
made a protest if it seemed unfair. They have acted impru
ttentlv and foolishly in the tenseness of their waiting and the
sirdor of their passion for Poland. As a result there exists one;
of the most dangerous situations in Europe today. even more!
