This deluded candidate for a padded abode says that wuists are ahead of their time. It is indeed something invoke our thankfulness that THIS is NOT their day. The Unbalanced Party also declares that there is beauty and that Walt Whitman was first to recognize it. Walt, the philosopher, and Mark Twain both liked to we are told. But cussing and slang are north and th poles. Yet of neither can it be said that there Is ity in it. Fe Consider, for example, that celebrated Americanism, *t it.” Colorful, forceful, eloquent, expressive of much two syllables. But has it beauty? It offends, disgusts, i instant resentment. ' We wonder what Poet Untermyer, who thinks slang s beauty, would say were he late for an appointment and young lady or his wife spoke somewhat like ‘this: n, cull, y’ can’t gimme that corner-stand an’ git away it, see?

S, food administration expresses ¢ its own system of price regulation. Hog prices have regulated as far as they apply to the persons who; feed and fatten hogs, and the packers. Pork products been permitted to go into the market with prices un- d save by a mandate that the packers should not tt more than nine per cent on their invested capital. _ Now the food administration is alarmed at the rapidly ng price of pork products. Housewives who have investing in pork chops, ham, bacon and lard, noted increase, repeated over and over again within the past satisfaction vo years. No doubt housewives will be pleased to learn the food administration has found out what they long ’ Packers insist that hogs are too high in price. They pl that hi on the hoof (in stockyards) should not @ over $17.50 or $18 at the outside, a reduction in price E stock raisers. ' Of course hog prices have been high. Corn prices have higher than at any time since the civil war, and Prices should go up and down with corn. It is an niable fact that the prices of pork products have gone ely even higher than hog prices. And it is pork consumers pay, not hog prices. Tf there is‘to be any further regulation of hog prices, it is to say, reduction of stockyard prices, there should, same time, be a regulation of pork prices. And it, d downward. People like to get money without working, and that is what Russia offers.—Paderewski, premier of Poland. s * ££ &$ #8 & Wrong, Mr. Paderewski!
