Labor will react with a demand for higher wages. These will in-' crease the price of manufactured goods, including those that the farm ers buy. All along the economic parade the price tags will be marked upward, with extra profits attached along the way. The farm bloc leaders are using the ' same arguments that labor leaders advance. They want higher prices for farm products and hence are op posed to subsidies which prevent them. The labor leaders want higher wages and therefore oppose rules and regulations which prevent them.

To illustrate the need, one has only to consider the situation of the dairy industry. With the price of their products fixed, the dairymen com plained that the prices of feed, which were not fixed, increased to the point where they could not operate profit ably at ceiling prices. The Government, rather than in crease the price fixed for butter and milk, used subsidy payments to the dairy industry to protect them against the increased prices of feed. By this action, it was intended to make it possible for dairies to secure feed at net costs that would permit them to sell their products at the specified levels. The pressure agains susidies comes from numerous groups which believe, that, in the absence of subsidies, the price structure will have to be changed and that they will ,be able to sell their stuff at a higher price, thus making greater profits. If they don't, it is quite likely that the Government may be obliged to en force a compulsory savings plan whereby a certain percentage of the wages will be withheld at the source and returned after the war. The free spending war worker won't like this, but he can avert the possibility by doing his own "withholding" now. Christian Science Monitor. all of Belvidere; Miss Frances L.

Money is slipping through open fingers in a swift green torrent. Women who used to earn $8 a week as house maids are now collecting $60 a week at the factory pay window. Not that there's anything wrong in that. It's what they're doing with the money that sends up the danger signal. It is natural that those who have more money now should want to buy some of the luxuries they have had to deny themselves in leaner times. But spending without restraint is of benefit to no one. It jacks up prices; it lowers the buying power of the in dividual who is sticking to an im portant civilian job at a peacetime salary; it jeopardizes the economic stability of the-entire nation. .The kind of spending that is too common is evident in the class of merchandise which is often advertised today.'
