THE GROCER-PROFITEER. Pec?.ue we a? a nation are at war is no reason why ome local grocer? and market men should be permittea to cbaree the excessive and in some cases almost outrageous prices for foods'nn' which tl:oy are now charging. In comparison with prices adtertised in the Chi
cago newspapers dealer are forcing their patrons to pay . much higher prices than are common eL-t where. The j Lord Almighty only knows that a dollar nowadays goes about as far as a quarter of o'her days, and the situation ;
is bad as 1' is without making it worse. Th-re seems to bo an impression that householders are rolling 'in wealili and that all that is necessary is to tack on h few ven's here and a few cents there and the people will stand for It. There is, however, the proverbial straw that will break the camel's back. There Is such a thing as profiteering in a grocery store as well as in a war facory end the government should order some of its invest teators to get busy and find out why the excessive prices are taxed on the consumer. It won't be hard to find examples. The dealer who overcharges his customer is just es much a pro-German as he can he. It is high xinv. to bring om of these fellows up with a sharp turn. There is no justification for some of the prices charged. I is all very well to gloss over over-charging with the statement that this is war and everybody is doing it. "Winter is coming on apace and the 3rst thing we know some peopl will be starving if thc-y aro forced to pay much more for the necessities of life.

THE IDLE MEN.
taken steps, through 'he establishment of the Student
i Arniv Training Corps, to utilize the higher educational
(institutions in training ynuns men under 21, Secretary I Lane's committee makes the following r, -commend; i' ion -:
The people of the Fmted States should recognize thai t he maintenance of the war strength of the nation in its full power demands the u'most efforts of all exist inc well organized and adequately equipped colleges, univci sit ies and 1 ethnical schools. This ,iic;;rn et er ind ea ing and more devo'ed bodies of student 3 as w el! as facilities. Young pt ople having the requ'site quHl'.ncBtions should heed this urgent call of their country, and apply themselves diligently, enthusiastically and in increasing numbers to the task of preparing for the highest service of which they are capable. Wherever practicable, your.-' men should at the same t'me jyin the Students' Enlisted Reserve and prenare for military service, in order to be ready for that call also when it comes. Institutions of higher education should adjust their courses, so far as possible, to immediate war needs and to the demands which must inevitably come with the establishment of peace, and should develop especially those scientific and practicable branches of s'.idy wh'ch are essential to the winning of the war, to the dvt lopment of our industries and commerce, and to 'he accomplishment of the tasks of ihe civic and political life of the nation.

Congress is preparing now to pass a r.fw draff extension bill which will take from this country many valuable men: men whose business ability has been recognized. Business must go on as best it can, but the machinery of this nation must work overtime to make up for the men who will be over there. Employers will have to be Inconvenienced by teaching apprentices new work: old .employes will have to do more than their s:vre un:! the naw emrdoves have become trained.
The great fact to pi:t before th- American public -o- -IV ;i marked ffect upon all east day is that there is work for everybody. No one w ho i with the war. The Bulgars. as a
loyal to the Fnited States should consider h:m elf a ci'izeD tinless he is working at something, larce or small, which will aid in carrying on the business of the war. Tee Hohenzollern propagandist knows :n whose hands to place the funds to carry on th" work of his master -the Idle man becomes the tool of 'he German coveinmer.'. The labor department reports that ti.- country is short 1,000.000 unskilled workn,.. n in war industrit s. Five hundred industries in Indiana wor'tin? . war contracts are short of labor. The state conne:i of -. --r.se has issii'-d a call to mayors of cities and chambers o. commerce to help in making good the shortage of labor.

Many men are not working. They never did work and they never will work unless the government use.- drastic measures. It is possible any day in the week to go in certain places and on certain loafing corners in any city of the Calumet region and find men who are idle. They loaf all the time.

with :s failure to decide on the constitutionality of the state highway law is only in keeping with the other disregard of the public interest in the matter of the prohibition decision. Great interests were at stake there and yet the court made Indiana wait until it was good and ready before deriding a question Involving u vast putri of money. In connection with the road law decision the Engineer and Contractor say3: "The supreme coirt of Indiana, through its failure to decide on the constitutionality of the state highway law, has tet back all state road work in Indiana just a year. The court has gone on a three months' vacation. When it returns in the fall, it will be too late to start any road work, ff 'here is any public spirit in Indiana, the supreme court should be made to feel its effect; for this is not a case of rebellion at the decision of the court but at its failure to render a decision. "A lower court had declared the new state highway law unconstitutional, am! the highway commission had been enjoined .from road building. A prompt appeal was made to the state supreme court and the public was entitled to a promp decision. It got a prompt decision from the court a decision to t-k a three months' vacation. Every newspaper in Indiana should voice its opinion on this decision."

I ten by Sam Pcufak:ss of our ooth Co..
in which be made a statement that all the Hammond boys were shamefully disappointed at the action cf the city council of Hammond. We were rather .'surprised and disappointed in Skufaki-s for writing such an article. Of curs,? we know that Sam talked a lot around th ecamp, but didn't think he wojld tell a falsehood about his fellow tcldiers and try to disgrace the city i fticials cf Hammond.
