Several factors have contributed to excessive living costs. The admin- istration has been criminally extrava- gant in the expenditure of public money.

Vast stores of food been shipped for the alleviation of conditions in Europe, not only during the war, but since the with the result that price levels have been heightened.

Uet it not be forgotten that Mr. Wilson got into power saying that this country was in the grasp of the monopolistic special interests, of highly organized and tyrannical big business, and that it was his high pur- pose to smash the plutocracy and end forever the influences he claimed had the American people by the throat.
