The only question is whether the drouth will not come before that time, dnd whethér it is to come by | congressional enactmént or by con- stitutional amendment. It is a race between these two methods. Most observers are betting on the amendment. Fourteen states have ratified it already. A survey of elec- tion returns is said to show that, at least twenty-two other states will ratify it in their coming legislative sessions. Most of their legislatures méet early in January. It is pretty safe, then, to assume that the coun-} try will ‘go’ Gry automatically ‘some time next spring, with the indorse- ment of the federal ponam er by| the 36th state. Otherwise the* 599°] of \ aleoho} will ¢ame with absalute finality on the first bf next July, as a result of the prohibition ap- pended ta the agricultural extension bill by the House and Senate,..now definitely»passed along by thé ptes- ident. It will not make so great a differ- ence, though, as many people fancy. There are thirty states dry already, and in nearly all the rest there is a large dry area. For the bulk of our population, the transition will not be at all violent. “war measure’ FOOD PRICES “WILL DECLINE That food prices are due to go down some time during 1919 is the prediction of food producers meeting at the convention of the American Manufacturers’ Association. They do not anticipate any speedy de. crease, because the stocks now or hand, and those now being made tif to sell in the immediate future ar the product of materials purchased at very high prices. There have been restrictions or production, high labor costs, ant up to ore 80, 1919, about $30, 000,-| 000. We paid off $4,000,000,000 of that in federal taxes last spring. We } shall pay off $6,000,000,000 more— assessed for the calendar year of 1918—next spring and summer. Thai leaves only $20,000,000,000. Half \of that sum may legitimately be de- | ducted because it consists of loans, made to our allies, which will be re- | paid.
