Of course the situation is aggravated by speculators and
profiteers, who take advantage of the shortage to exploit prices,
but they are only incidental and not fundamental causes of the
high cost of living. Inflation of currency adds its share to the
complication as does artificial control by monopoly, and excess
profits taxes passed on to the people. ......... . ...

penalty of war. We are paying for the crime of war. That which

So he struggled and fretted. He ev
en tried to break the pitcher by knock
ing it against the floor.
It might as well have been made o
iron, it was so strong. And the Major
only succeded In hurting his own hanu.
Of course he made a great racket.
And the hens, who had become used
to his mere stealthy visits, began to
flutter and squawk. They made such
an uproar at last the Major Monkey
wantedto hurl the pitcher at them. But
he couldn't do that, with his hand
stuck inside it. And besides, the pitch
er was chained fast to the wall of the
hen house.
And right there lay the Major's
greatest trouble. If the pitcher hadn't
been fastened he would have run off

of the pitcher.

and not because he was sorry.
The litle, dark man was his master.
And the Major was very, very fond of
him. He knew, suddenly, that he had
missed the little man sadly while he
roamed about Pleasant Valley.
Though Johnnie Green was staring
straight at him, Major Monkey clung
to his captor and held his wrinkled
face close to the little man's cheek.
"He sorra now!" the little man said
to Johnnie Green.
"What's his name?" Johnnie In-'
quired. jTwS
. "Jocko!" said Major Monkey's mas
ter. "Datnice-a name, eh?"
Johnnie Gren thought it was. And
Major Monkey himself appeared to
like the sound of it. It was a long
time since he had heard It. No one
had called him "Jocko" since that day
' weeks beforejwhen he had run away
from his master, the organ-grinder, in
the village.

industrial sense, and entitled to equal economic reward as a re
