No complaints | in this direction were heard during | the war, but now that peace is re- stored there should be vigorous re- trenchment in all departments at Wiashington. Many unnecessary gov- ernment activities are still main- tained; many unnecessary bureaus are endeavoring to make themselves permanent; many constructive works that should be stopped are still going, while hundreds of milllons 1f not billions, could be saved during the current vear if there was only suffi- cient effort in that direction. The government has done much toward such economy, but not enough mainly because public opinion has mnot yet been sufficiently aroused to make itself felt The conflicting outlook of business induces a generaly conservative tem- Deflation is the prevailing ten- dency; for commodity prices are too high to permit further expansion, and the widespread conviction that prices must recedo naturally checks buying.

Some very significant reduc- tions have occurred in the textile markets, both cottons and woolens being weak. Several of the most staple brands of cotton goods were reduced 25 to 30 per cent. this weelk, the deepest cut on record. That such sensational reductions should be made by the most conservative business houses in the trade meant that in their judgment drastic action was the 1y of getting back to normal. e cases war profits were en tirely eliminated, and prices clean to the bone If further are necessary they he without cheaper cotton, lower shutdown Which of these necessary is beyond the knowledge experts.
