Virginia, mother of the Old South, once regarded as strongly Prohibition as Maine, like Maine, dem- onstrated it isn't Dry-minded at all. City and country voters alike turned thumbs down on the Eighteenth Amendment on the first opportunity they had to register their true sentiments. The cities were more pronounced in their anti-Prohibition leanings than the rural sections but the average of two to one is convincing enough to satisfy even the Dry exhorters that Virginians have had enough of the present system. Virginia, the thirty-second State to ballot on the repeal resolution, is also the thirty-second to approve it. In view of the unanimity of opinion adverse to Prohibition as expressed in the vote on repeal in every section of the country it seems reasonable to conclude that had the Eighteenth Amendment been submitted to State Conventions, chosen for that purpose by popular vote, it never would have been | adopted. Back of the vote that State after State, thirty-two of them now, has rolled up for repeal, | WATCHING RETAIL PRICES. While the National Recovery Administration Iis debating price control, it is going ahead quietly with its plan for the most ambitious investigation of retail prices ever undertaken. The object of the study is to provide the consumer against runaway prices and to set up supervision of price trend. NRA has warned it will move vigorously against “price hik- ing,” and a recent press report from Washington said_its initial action along this line is shortly to| be taken against certain overall and other wearing! apparel manufacturers who are charged by retailers with boosting prices as high as 200 per cent. While actions of this kind are being taken, re- search will be made to cover some 1500 items sold daily by the retail trade. More than 400 cities and towns will be covered by the survey. For the present the undertaking will be on an emergency basis, but Jater long-range aspects contemplate a permanent organization in from 12 to 20 keypoints, with each of more than 400 representative towns and cities reporting retail price trends not less than once a month. Other groups will be making simultaneous studies of cost determination and the effects of price fixing and price control. From the latest pronouncements issued by Gen. Johnson it appears that a broad system of price control, differentiated from strict price fixing, will be tried out at large at the outset Centers where price information is available will distribute data to enable housewives to determine |is the fact there never | opposition to Prohibition that plus a manifesttaion of disappointment on the part | of those whose well-intentioned theory has been dis- | proved in practice. was the enthusiasm for Prohibition that the public has been led, Lhrough skillful propaganda, to believe there was. What we !are getting now is a direct expression of underlying | has always existed More Shaw. ( (Manchester, Eng., Guardian.) Mr. Shaw has now republished in this country | the address he gave to New York in the spring. He has added a preface to say that he sees no reason why his political and social criticisms should not be allowed to do England good as well as the United States, since they apply equally well to con- ditions on this side of the water. We would not attempt to summarize his “harangue,” as he calls it himself. Who can summarize Shaw? It is indeed the Shavian mixture as before, a quite usual hotch- potch of sense and what some people will regard as nonsense, furious invective against all sorts of men and opinions, with a recurrent propagandist twist in favor of Mr. Shaw's own peculiar brand lof Socialism. ‘It must have been an educational ex- perience for the American listener, and should be \equally educational for the English reader; though, desplte the ingenious preface, we may perhaps won- (der, without undue complacency, whether Mr. Shaw's exposure of some economic fallacies at least, such as those concerning reparations and the interna- tional transfer of wealth, now needs driving home as forcibly over here as it does in the United States. With his attack on the results of “a folly called the World Economic Conference” most people can partially agree. “The Conference depended (for its success) on an unshakable conviction that all real trade is a barter of goods and necessary services. Yet to the delegates trade was only a game at which a player who won the most paper money lost the most goods was the winner.” Here, as gen- erally when the situation calls for destructive criti- cism, Mr. Shaw only says forcibly what other people are thinking feebly; it is when we come to con- structive suggestions that opinion begins to differ. But that difference need not prevent anyone from being entertained, instructed, and possibly edified by this latest outburst of the perenially youthful what are fair prices. It will include all the outlets for retail » gooods, independent stores, chain. store systems, delicatessens, general stores, etc., and cov- ers different systems of pricing goods. INTO THE SUNSET. The last remnant of the Grand Army of the Republic, once the most powerful organization in the United States, is passing into the sunset of life. A mighty host of their comrades has preceded them to “Fame's eternal camping ground.” A short time ago, at St. Paul, only a few com- panies of these once virile veterans marched proudly, though haltingly, to the stirring rumble of the drums and the shrill clamor of the fifes which once more sent forth the notes of the old war Songs of the vanished conflict between the North and South. And pitifully few were those who followed in automobiles, too aged and infirm* to stride under the banners, but still filled with the fires of patriotism and pride. The scene was at once pathetic and inspiring. The youth of America will learn from this epic event that. the spirit of America still survives, so long as the memories of men cherish nobility of deeds, revere loyalty and sacrifice in the human heart. The feebly passing thousands in their annual celebration, must hear the rhythm of ghostly music —the hushed music of other heroic days—mingled with the cheers and applause warming their hearts as they pass along the ranks of the multitudes saved by them to rejoice under one flag. Only 605 of the estimated 8000 surviving vet- erans marched or rode in the thin blue lines which gathered in reunion this year. Mr. Shaw. Not So Startling. (New York World-Telegram.) Prom a letter written by a man who has just passed his 80th birthday and whose long and useful life has been distinctly on the conservative rather than on the radical side of things: What a change in the public mind! no greater than I saw in my boyhood. My father was an abolitionist, when they were looked upon much as Bolshe- vists are now. In that day human slavery had the same public, church, and political approval as other property. To those who are disposed to register alarm about the rights of individualism in the present time of change from laissez faire to co-operation it may be well to consider the fact which that letter But MENUS, of the_ DAY By MRS.
