--S _ " INf;- WRONG
SOMEWtiEft
The way in which prices of many
essential things keep •-advancing is
. alarming. Nothing suggests. a _- stAp,
in the upward tendency. Having
gone so far there is no reeason why
• they shoud net go farther, and there
is no saying •where- the 'end may obs•.
Naturally, this condition of things
gives rise to _.ttneasinesa,x

T. .,

40e. per gallon;, sugar to' $17 ,per
hundi•t 1weight. • And if gasoline goes
to 50c. and sugar to $20, what are
you go pg to do about it? Shoes and
clothing also are getting up to prices
which look prohibitive to the average
man.
While the war was in progress t'nd
millions of gallons of gasoline were
being consumed each week in the
tanks and areo

clothing anti- other things —ev
erything wasbeing consumed by the
armies. -
When the war ie over, we said,
prices will come down. But it is
since the war ended that the real
advances inmanyy common necessities
have taken place.
It is said that in Russia, where
organized industry has, largely broken
down, the peasants have gone back to
primitive methods of 'gaining a liveli-
hood. They spin and weave their
home-grown wool into cloth-
ing in the home. They are also mak-
ing their own footwear, and grinding
their wheat in the, little old• -fashion-
ed mills on the farms.. The flour will
be black, but it may be wholesome,
and the clothing and shoes will not
be stylish, but they will be war.n and
will wear well.
The Russians were not far removed
from the primitive mode of living, and
had little difficulty in going back tg it
when prices of factory made articles
became outrageous. That remedy is
not open to the people of Canada and
the United States.
In Russia modern manufacturing
methods broke down; here the few
who specialized in a line of work got
on to the idea that no matter how
they raised the price of essentials the
people would buy. They can't make
their own shoes and clothing and
grind their grain as the Russians are
doing, so they find the price. People
can do without sugar, though they
think that they cannot...As for gaso-
line, it is so largely used in industries
•end in travel that to many it is abso-
lutely necessary, and there is no sub-
stitute.
Another outrage is the Brice of
lumber. Good pine.lumber at Ottawa
is up to $125.00 per thousand feet, and
hemlock is not far behind. It is d.fF-
cult to believe that there is good rea-
son Tor such a price -as this. But the
lumbermen have the lumber, the peo-
ple must have houses. and what are
you going to do about it? None but
the backwoods settler can escape„
This price -boosting cannot go on in-
definitely. There must be an end;
and what then? It looks as though
it must end in a general paralysis of
business w.th very hard times for all
those outside the very comfortable
classes•
