And thelr conversation about the outlook for 1921 in tinged with this central note—where there is wbundance there can be neither panic nor poverty. America ix well supplied with com- modities and goods and Is experi-| encing what the rest of the world is experiencing—namely, a recession in prices as the peoples of the war areas return to their places in the manufacturigg and production of articles of commerce, STRIKE OF CONSUMERS FORCED PRICES DOWN. Looking back over 1920, lessons may be gleaned about the future. The striking fact of the past year was the strike of consumers, The public stubbornly refused to buy at the prices which were being asked. And when the people generally stopped buying, the manufacturers found that the retailers cancelled orders for new goods, “This is a democratic country,” said a member of the Cabinet, who, of course, was referring to the use “4” “and things happen in this country just about as the mass of people want them to happen. The people stopped buying because they and now that bottom has been reached, peaple are starting to buy again. ‘This will mean new orders for goods and new impetus to the manufactur- ing world,” 1 Should prices go to pre-war levels? Government officials regard this as the most delicate point of all because conditions in every industry, are dif- ferent, They choose rather to that prices should go to “reasonable’ levels and they believe the public will wtart buying without insisting on an absolute return at once wo pre-war levels, . ETTER GOODS NOW THAN BEFORE THE WAR. In many cases better goods are being produced than before the war, and again there js no such abund~ ance in some commodities as there [used to be, Changed conditions will |affect price recessions but, generally speaking, the public will ut de- cide when it thinks buying should be resumed. Of course, the retailer's prices carry the answer to the whole downward | movement of prices just as do land- lord's rents, In both instances certain fixed charges prevent retailers and Jandlonds from reducing prices or rents at once, Just ax soon as spring comes and building materials drop, which is the earnest hope, naturally, of the real es- tate men everywhere, the erection of | more dwellings will affect the price of rents to all classes of people. Many concerns are forcing the price of labor down by closing their plants or stores and “taking inventory.” This rather painful process of readjustment will in some cases be justified and In others unjustified. No generalizations are belng indulged in by Government officiais except one-—when the price of everything that is to be bought comes off. L eit, H. V.

WASHINGTON, Dec, 31.—The ex- Pectation of Washington social lead- erm that the inaugural ball is to be revived as a part of the plan to make the Induction of President - Elect Harding into office the occasion for a celebration that will outshine any- thing within the memory of the pres- ent generation has received a setback. Members of the joint Congressional committee which is'arranging for the Inauguration are objecting to the pro- posal to hold the ball In the Pension Office, which is the only building in Washington with a floor space suf- ficiently large, Members of the committee refuse their sanction on the identical grounds assigned by President Wilson at the time this feature was dropped from the programme eight years ago and again four years later, “Uncle Joe” Cannon, who ts Chairman of the Houge Committee, stated positively that the proposal to grant the use of the Pension Office would not receive his vote, and in the meeting of the Committee he voiced his views in characteristié fashion. ‘ ‘The use of the Pension Office Build- ing was objected to on the ground that if will mean the stoppage of gov- ernment business there for a month or more and necessitate the moving of thousands of important records, some of which were lost the last time the building was go used, The Pension Office is many months behind with its work and the pension claims of thousands of veterans and their fam- | ilies would be delayed. Senator Nelson of Minnesota, him- self a veteran of the civil war, who presided as acting Chairman at the conference of the joint committee, also was emphatic in his opposition to the proposal. The matter has not been voted on, but a poll of the members of the joint Congressional committee forecasts the defeat of the proposal if it is pressed to a vote. Use of Pension Office for Pro- Boundary Drawn by Him/Seek Permission to Examine Leaves Muchy Disputed Ter- ritory to the Turks. WASHINGTON, Dec. 31. (Asso~ Clated Press)—The new frontier of Armenia on the Turkish side, as drawn by President Wilson at the invitation of the Allied Premierscuts lesa deeply into former Turkish ter- ritory than the extreme limits pre- scribed by the Premiers, it was learned to-day at the White House. The note of invitation from the Premiers asked the Preaident to fix the frontier in the Vilayets of Erze- roum, Trebizond, Van and Bitlis,” but it was said that none of these vilayets or provinces was included in its en- Urety in Armenia. Roughly, the boundary as drawn by Mr. Wilson extends from the Black Sea at a point slightly west of Tirebol!, west of Kel- kat and Erzingan, through Mitikan, west of Mush and Bitlis and south of Iake Van to the frontier of Azet- beijhan, The Vilayets of Diarbekir, Sivas, Harpoot and Adana, sometimes claimed by zéalous Armenians, were not included in the President's award, nor was there any attempt to draw the eastern frontier of Armenia con- tiguous to Georgia and Agetbeljhan. The Allies are understood to have left the determination of this part of the boundary for separate negotiation with the Trans-Caucasian Republics of Georgia and Azetbeijhan. Since President Wilson communi- cated his boundary decision .to the Allied Premiers several weeks ago conditions in Armenia have become so chaotic as a result of vperations of the Bolsheviki and the Turkish Na- tionalists that the Allies are expect- Jed to postpone temporarily the put- | ting into effect of the President's de- | cision, It has been intimated in circles abroad that because of the official The suggestion is made by Repre- sentative Cannon that the Capitol building would be a more fitting place in which to stage the affair. He says tha: a gathering in the Capitol would mean much more in historic associa- tion and would be more suitable, since people from all sections of the coun- try are expecting to be here for the oceasion, He suggests the use of the rotunda and statuary hall with the corridors leading out of it, and thinks and House chambers and fo meet friends, althdu: space in the building would hardly be sufficient for the dancers. Senator Borah, who believes regal irs are out of place in a democ- racy, commenting on reports that the Government will be called on to foot ills of considerable magnitude for inaugural expenses, made inquiry on the floor of the Senate Into the method of making the appropriation. He sald he understood that there was by Congress, but that the bills were pald when presented, “An far an T am concerned,” said he, “I would lke to limit the appro- priations to $10 to pay for an auto. mobile from the White House te the Capitol and return." pssst) HERO’S RETARDED FUNERAL.

This combination of store and wagon service has had the effect of making New York's average milk bill lower per quart than any other city in the East. A few years ago we had but sixty stores doing a business of about $1,000,000.00 a year. Now there are over 200 and doing nearly $10,000,000.00 a year. This alone is proof positive that these stores have sensed a real need and have supplied it in a wey that meets your approval. In rounding out the 80 years of active service in the milk trade, we cannot help recognizing that in every important ad vance in the milk industry we have been the real pioneers. Our record is one of continuous strug. gle to do better. Now after 80 years we are still building.
