Staft Cormeapondent ot The WASHINGTON, June 12.—Bread at 13 cents a loaf in Detroit and 9 cents just across the river in Wind- for, Canada, is the striking object lesson of food extortion now going on «in the United States. Despite all the agitation of the past tyear and the tremendous, energy of the Nation in spring planting, prices continue at abnormally high levels and the cost of Ilving in nearly every * commodity keeps on going up. But against this greed there ts ris- fhg a tide of outraged public opinion that threatens action more serious than mere protest. There are rolling in on Washington to-day waves of emphatic de- done voicing something be indignation, mands that quickly by the Government to put an end to the robbery. The first war on our own soil promises to be an eco- nomic one, The battles will be fought over prices on one flank and taxes on the other, with whiskey and pro- hibition having a fight of thelr own between. ‘Wages apparently have their top, but costs of living for the The President yesterday reached masses keep right on soaring. all made on the by Samuel Gompers and a delegation | © of labor representatives, speedy action in ¢ tion of food supply, is significant of the serious situation that prevails.

Prohibition is complicating the food question in Congress through in- sistence of extremists in tacking a variety of riders on to the main ob- Ject. Every step of the way will have to be fought over, for whiskey raises as many rows in Congressional de- bate as in corner saloons, Even on its own merits, leaving wholly aside the food and price prob lems, prohibition is making rapid ad- vances. The principal fight of the liquor men to-day is not how much they can get, but how much they can save of their business, They recog- nize that drastic restrictions are now inevitable, SENATE COMMITTEE FAVORS A PROHIBITION AMENDMENT. A striking instance of the situation is seen in the action of the Senate Committee on Judiciary, reporting favorably a constitutional amend- ment prohibiting the manufacture, sale and transportation of intoxicat- ing liquors. This does not necessarily mean that Congress will pass such an amendment, but it serves to bring graphically to the front the aemand for restriction of the traffic. Out of it Is expected to come some sweeping legislation, probably taking the form of empowering the President to moke war emergency regulations such as prohibiting use of food products in manufacturing intoxicating bevor- ease and other stringent limitations, 38 trouble is brewing over the ending ‘Hevenue, Billy which is to pose vast new taxes un the people for war purposes.
