PRICES Ml'ST DECLINE
There is no way of getting away
from the fact that prices must come
down off the pinnacle of profiteering
frensy. What the secretary of the
treasury told the convention of bank
ers needs to bo told to managers of in
dustry and business'. as well as to the
workers in those lines and to the whole
people.
The Invincible and inexorable truth
is that inflated, artificial and insup
portable prices of abundant commodi
ties cannot be maintained, but they
must fall toward their natural levels.
War prices cannot be maintained. The
public will not buy when it has good
reason to believe that by "watchful
waiting" It will accomplish a great deal
toward reducing the prices of commod
ities to figures nearer to actual values.
Undoubtedly it is a hard thing for
farmers to raise their crops at a high
labor cost and sell them upon a fall
ing market, which will not give them
just and equitable remuneration for
their outlay.
When prices were rising multitudes
made money fast. They marked up
their wares, dug up their obsolete
stocks and made a cleanup that put
them in possession of more money than
they ever saw belore in their lives.
Everybody was elated at the rising
prices except the laboring man. whose
wages did not keep pace with the rise,
and he suffered. Now that prices have
gone up and over the crest and are
coming down upon the other side of
the hill the merchant and the manu
facturer should be as willing to mark
down their goo<ls As they Were eager j
to mark them up when the opportunity j
offered, nnd permit the laborer and the |
general public to secure the benefit of 1
declining prices, upon a wage Hint has !
at last been ral«e<j to a point near 1
requirement* Of h»i'nan existence. U ‘
.WJU M better for us all to get back to j
\n equitable basis, rather than to try
tho Impossible by holding prices ho
high that some men will take a chance
on a term In state's prison rather than
pay them.

Boston's vote swings the state of
Massachusetts 20.000 strong for beer.
The vote, however, simply shows the i
disapproval of the citizens of the state |
of the Volstead act; but their decision j
upon the socalled "beer referendum1'
wtll bring no “Joywatei" to moisten
the parched tongues of the thirsty
people.
The result of the referendum, how- i
ever, is Interesting from the fact that I
it Is the first time for many years that
the people as a whole have had an op
portunity to pass upon any phase of
prohibition. It is evident from the
small majority vote In favor of beer
that Ifad It been a question of restor
ing the saloon and distilled liquors the
measure would have been overwhelm
ingly defeated.
AVhat action the state authorities
wi'.l take in carrying out the will of
Ahe people is purely speculative, for
the law. If such It should become,
would be in direct violation of the
federal constitution.
The state legislature passed the
"beer and wine." act with an over
whelming vote—121 to 67 In the house
and 26 to 8 in the senate. The bill was
vetoed by Governor Coolidge. The labor
union leaders tried hard to have the
legislature pasr the act over the
governor's veto, but only fourteen
senators fayor«-d the proposition, while
twenty-two were against It. This did
not satisfy the supporters of the "beer
bill" and tin y immediately set about
finding ways and means to gain their
point, obtaining signatures enough to
have it placed upon the ballot In ref
erendum. The people have shown their
hand. A small majority of them want
beer and wine, but none will g* t it
legally, as the act is In direct opposi
tion to the federal law.

A casual glance at the election re
turns from different sections of the
country should bring at least some
comfort to the host of democrats In
Nevada who went down to defeat
November 2.
For example, those candidates for the
legislature who were defeated iu thin
state might find consolation in glancing
over the makeup of the next legisla
ture. in New Jersey, the home of Presi
dent Wilson and his Private Secretary.
Joseph P. Tumulty. Out of sixty As
semblymen elected throughout the
state fifty-nine were republicans and
one a democrat. Among the republicans
elected is found one negro, two clergy
men and two women. Just what will
be the attitude of the one democrat
elected remains to be seen. Will h« be
seated between the two cp-tgymen or
between the two Indies or will he oc
cupy a neat beside a distinguished
epeaker and the negro?
President-elect Harding carried the
stale on the unofficial figures by above
a quarter of a million. Several coun
ties that have not elected republican
representatives for a period of twenty
five years at the last election brought
home their entire bodies victorious.
However, all is never lost. Perhaps
Governor Edwards and the democratic
aanemblyinan-elect will find some con
solation in the recent decision of the
supreme cqurt which reached such a
vital spot In the Volstead act.
German breweries are said to be
facing ruin. What of the people who
contributed to their prosperity In the
days thnt are gone forrver.
A brief but abortive revolution
which brdke out In Bolivia recently
was immediately suppressed and Its
ringleaders executed.
The Sinn Fein hunger strikers have
abandoned their fast, owing to a drop
in the price of earned href and cab
bage.
Better lay up a supply of chewing
•nd smoking. They got whisky and
univ.rsai suffrage. Tobacco Is next.
This Is Flag Day in
the United States
President Wilson ha* Issued an e»
ecutive order directing the American
flag to be flown at half mast at all
military posts, naval station* and on
vessels and buildings of the United
States today as a token of honor to
those Americans who lost their live*
in tlie great war. It Is further sug
gested that private citizens participate
by displaying Hags at half mast front
their places of business and homes
from sunrise to sunset today. The
President's order reads as follows:
“1 hereby direct that Sunday, No
vmber 14. 1920, the flag of the United
States be displayed at half mast at all
military posts, naval stations, on ves
sels and on buildings of the United
State* as a token of the nation's par
ticipation In the memorial services held
for the heroic American soldiers,
sailors, marines and others who gave
th<-|r live* to their country In the wotld
war."
in consonance with the President's
order, letters have been sent to th»
mayors of cities of 5,000 or more P"P
ulation in the Twelfth federal reserve
district by Theodore Hardee, director
of the Government savings organiza
tion for this district, requesting these
mayors to issue proclamations calling
upon the citizens of their communities

rna>t from nil municipal buildings,
business houses, industrial plants, ptl
