It does not follow that because Mr. Ford has marked down the prices of his cars to what they | were before the war without making any reduction in the wages of his employes, all other manufacturers can do likewise. Mr. Ford may have had a wider margin of profit before the war than other manufacturers, and} it may be that he has_ not in- creased the wages of his em- ployes since the beginning of the war as much as other manufact- urers have. Sut the action of Mr. Ford is very likely, neverthe- less, to add something to the force of the influences which are bringine prices down. If other manufacturers can not reduce their prices to the degree that he has, they must be made to feel, by his action, that it is unwise and futile to resist those influen- ces. Mr. Ford’s example strenth- ens the reasons for believing that present prices are swollen} with inordinate profits, and any- thing with inordinate profits, and anything which reinforces | that popular belief makes for a) reduction of prices. Mr. Ford} admits that, even at the lower) prices he can make a profit. He) says progress, prosperity and} contentment will quickly follow} a restoration of pre-war condi- tions of business. Pre-war con-| ditions of business are probably | not restorable; nor would the re-| storation of them be désirable in| all cases, even if it were possible. | Normal prices of evervthing, | commodities, services and labor, | are apt to be higher in the fut-| | ure than the normal prices of the | vast immediately preceding the war. But to get prices down to a level which shall be regarded | as normal will undoubtedly he beneficial to the country in| every wav.

When you pay your dues during the Fourth Red Cross Roll Call, Nov- ember 11-25, be sure that the worker that takes your name and money provides you with the 1921 button and then— WEAR THAT BUTTON.

When you run across an idea that promises to prove useful in the future put it in black and white where you can preserve and utilize it when the right time comes.
