"What have I to do with wars be tween Russia and Poland! Wh are the Czecho slovaks, where is Teichen, and what does it matter to me what becomes of it ?" Such are the ques tions rather impatiently asked by the average man, and perhaps still more the average woman. They think that politics, like charity, should begin at home, and when the discussion wan ders oft to foreign parts they feel jus tified in returning to the undisturbed contemplation of the news from Ep som or Old Trafford. What have they to do with bolsheviks? If they wish for a plain answer they cannot do better than study Mr. Gosling's speech to the transport workers at South ampton. The prime concern of the houewife to-day is to get necessaries at sone- thine less than prohibitive prices. mony enou The - nun prime concern oi me " 1 , e. ......... ,f tMXPS n SIWT Hjiuni v. to replenisn ino ngur,. " Why ire prices high? W hy have they not diminished 20 months after the armistice? The questions are surely worth asking even for those who be lieve exclusively in bread-and butter politics. , , ,,. Now the answer is not simple, but as'one cause, perhaps the major came, Hr. GoHlin is perfectly right. It s foreign politics. It turns on Runsia and Poland, Germany and Austria and even such matters as Teschen and J the relations of Czecho slovaks to roles and of Toles to Ukrainians. It does not in the least matter that some ot these names are difficult to pronounce and attach, to places which the plain man would not care to point , the map without some preparations That doe. not alter the fart that it . is what is going on in such p aces and the wav in which we are dealing with i them that made food dear, materials , dear, sugar dear, and that cut off the i avenues into which our export ade might expand. We are indirectly getting a lesson in the economics of protection, for im ports from Germany and .Russia are virtually cut off, and we see one of the results in the impossible prices which have nullified the increases of cash wajjes. Mr. Goslin very rightly draws the moral that the greatest pos sible freedom of trade is one of the conditions of increased productivity of labor. People complain that labor, while paid more, is producing less. Thev forget the handicap of shortage in tiie materials and implements of in dustry a shortage which will not b remedied till we again enjoy the full use of Russian materials and German skilled workmanship.
