Cedarville, Ohio This Woman Started Something 1 The Vivfjiiii;* woman who pin u-d a note to a potato k I io hod ro.T;d, reading• ’*I #ot 24 cents a bushel. 'What did you g ive?'’ started something, because the man who noticed the potato paid $1.20 a bushel, and the facts, talked out. Trust a woman to find an ingenious way to bring oppression to public notice. Also happily, trust the American man to change conditions when they asbiil the welfare of pur womanhood. > One of these days we will bring into being a real commission of inquiry, one with vision, one with practical business sense, one with sound economic knowledge and finally one without self- interest and free from pull, An impossible combination? No, some day it will be found, and then a happier condition will liw arise as rapidly as the blood-suckers who ve on the labor o f, their fellows fall by the wayside. Middlemen are necessary, of course, due to the great complexities of our modern civilization? but iu the -last twenty years the consumer- has been removed bo far from the producer tha t they have nothing in common.

Shortage of labor is growing more acute every day. This provides a tem­ porary boom for the workingman. But prosperity based on pres- ent labor condition has the qualities of the boomerang. The workman is a buyer of commodities as well as the seller of his labor, \ ' When the immigration laws were framed *ffor the protection of the American workingman," the people generally believed th a t a t last we had found a means of establishing prosperity on a firmer basis. The statisticians figured that the excess of govern­ ment employees thrown into the labor-market would more than take care of the demands of growing domestic trade, and th a t we could get along very well without the foreigner. The 4 tac ­ tion, however, lias not worked out tha t way, When the armistice ■was signed the government bad on its pay foil 917,760 civilian employees, This list has been cu t to 542,513. Within the four- year'period the reduction has been approximately 40%, bu t the shortage of labor is acute. I t is uext to impossible to hire skilled workmen. Domestic servants are dictators of the household, and even with the stupendous wages i t is -next to impossible to get an honest day's work. Everyone, of course, is in sym­ pathy with the American workingman, bu t the employer can­ no t he crushed between the nether millstones.. The not result, of course, is rising prices, and the only solution lies in letting down of the immieratinn rwrfrififmT, I wm of the well-dressed'man whom yon see in this city are wearing “Club-Clothes" Their number is steadily being in­ creased as more and more men realize that Katz & Richards can give them superior clothing at moderate prices.
