Main Street Phone 17 "BUY LESS' RETAIL MEN WARN PUBLIC Ban Francisco The retail dealers' ad vice to the victims of high prices Is to curtail buying. Following la a portion of a letter from Edward A. MacLean, secretary of the Oregon Retail Merchants' Association, to Uovernor John U. Calkins of the Sao Francisco Federal Reserve Bank: "Portland, Oregon, August 38, 1919. " So long aa the free buying spirit of the American public exists, mayors and governors can fuss and fume and Congress can enact what It pleaaea, but high prices will con tinue. It Is my opinion that the pur chase of government securities such as War Savings Stamps and Treas ury Savlnga Certificates instead of merchandise will hasten the over throw of the 'high cost of living.' "Here Is the point It Is high time that the American people were brought to realise that the respon sibility for the high coat of living la not a responsibility of Congress or any other agency. Unless the American people, themselves, quit supporting high prices, they can right now make up their minds to pay high prices for some time to come. Yours very truly, Signed) K. A. MacLEAN.
