A Good Soldier Passes On
rpHE marine corps lost a good soldier and the nation
' lost a valuable citizen in the recent death of Jlaj
Cen. Wendell C. Neville.
Entering the marine corps in the early 'nineties, on
'graduation from the naval academy, General Neville
found enough action in his military career to satisiy any
one. He fought the Spaniards in Cuba, served in the
campaign in China against the Boxers, went to the Fhil
ippines to help put down the insurrection there, served
In troublous Haiti and the Dominican republic, won tne
Congressional Medal of Honor for bravery In the expe
dition to Vera Cruz, and took an extremely active part
in the fighting in France.
I As commander of the famous fifth marine regiment
rat Belleau Wood and later as commander of the fourth
brigade in the hard fighting at Soissons and in the
Meuse-Argonne, General Neville rounded out his career.
His death removes from our midst a very fine soldier.
During his 60 years of life he served his country as
' whole-heartedly and gallantly as any man couia ao.
An Exchange Of Visitors
AMERICAN motorists are expected to spend around
5300,000,000 in Canada this summer. The great
dominion north of the border has unrivaled attractions
as a vacation land and we're not speaking of Its liquor
" laws now. either. Citizens of the United States are dis
covering the fact in increasing numbers every year.
However. Canadians do a good deal of touring, too,
'and a lot of them cross the border to do it. In 1929, ac
cording to dominion government figures, Canadian tour
ists spent more than $111,000,000 in the United States,
and more than 619.000 Canadian automobiles went south
over the boundary. The figures probably will be higher
this year.
Here is reciprocity of the finest sort. That famous
unfortified frontier is in no danger as long as the two
nations exchange friendly visits on such a scale.
Alas! The only one that doesn't give honorary de-
rreea is the school of experience.
If you like a Sunday picnic in a quiet place far from
the crowd, you can use the front lawn.
Nobody bats a thousand in everything. Washington
.was first in many particulars, but he married a widow.
The chief difficulty in establishing parity is the fact
that a fleet is no stronger than the man in charge of it
It's a sad commentary on American culture when a
reporter's possession of a bank account looks suspicious.

EIGHTEEN YEARS AGO
IN KLAMATH
, THE SILENCE OP DEATH
" Spokane Spokesman Review:
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's resig
nation from the Society for Phy
aicai Research la explained by
an official as "an honest differ
ence of opinion. Sir Artbnr Is a
spiritualist; we are an Investi
gation society."
Of that society Conan Doyle
bid been a member tor thlrty
elx years. From investigation
he passed to conviction, but it Is
elgnlticant that tbe society as a
whole, after forty-eight years of
painstaking Investigation ot psy
chic phenomena the world over,
has not found, In its stupendous
anasa of reports and studies, con
vincing proof that the dead com
municate from the spirit world,
or that they can be summoned
from "the undiscovered country
from whose bourn no traveler
returns."
By an Impressive coincidence,
news ot Sir Arthur s break wltb
the Society of Phychical Re
search came on the day that Mrs.
Harry Houdlnl, widow ot tbe
internationally known magician,
confessed that she bad aban
doned hope ot communicating
with ber husband In the spirit
world. Before Houdlnl's death
the twain had formed a pact
binding tbe first to die to com
municate. If possible, with the
survivor.
. Thar Is pathos now In the
disappointed widow's admission
that "tbe alienee la Impene
trable: there is only a void."

Tbe practical disappearance of
the horse from, large centers ot
population is one more example
of this nation's thoroughness in
getting rid of anything, no mat

bas no present need for.
There were too many trees In
tbe country, so succeeding gen
erations waged hereditary war
upon the forests and succeeded,
tor all practical purposes. In
eliminating them.

Wild flowers once grew In

Instances might be multiplied
indefinitely to Illustrate the gay
Irresponsibility ot a people wise

door after tbe horse la stolen
but too sunnily optimistic to
take the obvious course before

custom to write "Peace" on tbe

the ever-hopeful city dweller Is
trying, with indifferent success,
to write it on tbe horn of his
automobile.
OPTICAL ILLUSION

BY KODNKY DITCHER
MCA hrrrlce Writer
WASHINGTON, July IS R
tall prices of food have been
coming down, but by no means
as rapidly as wholesale prices.
Auax never ao.
hen the farmer gets low
prices lor his products the con-
suuier sometimes eventually gets
a utua 01 tne benefit, but not
until tbe middle man and tba
retailer get theirs. If than.
C B. Dennian of the Federal
Farm Board recently pointed to
snarp aecunee In tba prices ot
beet Dressed beef in Chicago,
he aays, haa been selling for
irom xo to 17 per cent less than
a year ago. tbe areateat
ductlons being In tbe cheaper
cuts, netau prices lor beef, be
assured all housewives, ought to
reflect the full reduction noa-
sioie nnaer present prices.
(Meant Help the Housewife
But none of tbe covernment'a
figures available hare Indicate
that the housewife haa been get.
ting much ot a break on sir
loin or round steaks, or rib
roasts or chuck roasts.
On a rough estimate, however.
It is said that wholesale prioes
ot food are about 10 per cent
lower than the high mark last
year and retail prices about
per cent. The monthly survey
ot retail tood prices made br
the Bureau of Labor Statistics
covers S3 ot the most commonly
used articles of food and Its
wholesale aurvey 1S1 items, so
no exact comparison la possible.
The bureau depends upon about
ISOO retailer for the Informa
tion for its surveys, so It never
com piles comparative wholesale
and retail prlrea, which would
make the retailers sore.
Retailers are reluctant to
change their prices, either up
wards or downwards. It la ex
plained. Sometime they feel
that alight Increase would be
Justified and yet fear to offend
th consumer by making them.
On the other hand, it la natur
ally much, easier to refrain from
cutting prices when wholesale
price drop. Th retailers never
notice lower wholesale price as
quickly aa thsy observe Increas
ed wholesale prices.
Usually there are two step
between tbe producer and the
consumer the Jobber, or middle
man, and the retailer. Tbe
wholesale price, aa commonly
understood, is the price paid by
the middle man. The middle
man usually gets a slice during
the invariable lag between de
clining wholesale prices and de-
cllninr retail prlcea, but experts
on these facts believe the retailer
usually gets tbe larger slice. The
wideawake retailer knows his
price trends and he can make
the middle man observe mem
easier than the ultimate customer
can persuade the retailer to fol
low tbem.
Soma blame la placed on the
consumer, however, tor increas
ing retail costs. It costs more
to retail food now tban It did.
Time waa when people bought
Dotatoea br th bushels, flour by
the barrel, applea by tbe peck.
meat la bug chunks and eggs
at least by th doxen. In these
days of kitchenettes the retailer
finds himself doling out two or
three eggs or a single lamb chop
at a time and flour, potatoes.
pples and auch food are bougnt
Often in one-pound lota.
The middle mans margin oi
profit Is usually more or less
fixed. He used to get a lot ot
blame for tbe high cost of living,
but lately the tendency aha been
to squeeze him out. Mass buy
ing by chain stores and grocers'
leagues, establshment of chains
by producers and farmer co
operatives axe among the factors
threatening to eliminate tbe Job
ber.
Latest complete Bureau ot La
bor Statistics figures on whole
sale and retail tood prlcea are
for May. Figuring on an annual
family budget, the bureau finds
that food costing $1.63 In May,
1929, cost XI. 601 in May, 1930.
Food sold at wholesale for
100.977 in May, 1929, cost only
92 cents In May, 1930. Tbe
wholesale and retail prices given
are not relative, however, and
should not be compared with
each other except as to tbe com
parative ratio of decline.
