Schwab's comments up on the industrial situation submit ted in an address before the dinner of the Pennsylvania Society in New York are of more than passing in terest. Because of his experience and standingin the business world his view will carry weight with manv people. He said: "Nothing could be healthier for American business than the very con dition through which we are now passing. The severer the storm now, the quicker it will be over and the sooner we can emerge into clear weather and shape our course upon the sea of prosperity. Mr. Schwab thus puts into a terse phrase,, the thought that has been harbored by a great number of his fellow citizens, but which they have hesitated to utter with such frank ness. For every man who 'has stud ied industrial conditions here and abroad has been impressed by the conviction that there can be no per manent return to a normal state ol prosperity in the United States until the "settling process" is completed. The process is now going on, and. as Mr. Schwab aptly observes, the faster it proceeds the sooner it will be over. There must be a very material scaling down of prices and surren der of inordinate profits. There must come a general retrenchment all along the line, inciuding individ uals, business concerns and the gov ernment. Financial wild-catting most cease. Reckless speculation must give way to honest and legiti mate investment. The greed for easy money must be supplanted by industry and earnestness of purpose Perhaps the treatment will of neces sity be heroic, but it nevertheless must be taken if a permanent cure is to be had. "The great need of the world to day," Mr. Schwab is quoted as say inf, "is to work hard and save." And he added that this applies to people of means as well as to the poor people. It is an admonition that has been hurled at the public frequently during the last two years, but which the public seems rather slow to heed, though admitting its wisdom. That there haj been an improvement in this direction is quite true. Inves tigation has developed that the peo ple as a rule are buying with greater care than formerly. They are try ing to keep down their expenses to a reasonable level and to avoid extra vagance. It has been stated that this coun try has passed through a prolonged spree of reckless extravagance and is now at the caster oil stage. The remedy is not paltable, but it is ef ficacious, and the dose should not be delayed. It is to the interest of ev ery citizen in every walk of life that a cure be effected as speedily as pos sible. That can best be accomplish ed by giving heed to the advice pass ed out by Mr. Schwab in his New York address. FINANCING THE FARMER. Members of congress are casting about to find some means of helping the American farmer in the present emergency. The most popular idea thus far suggested is the revival of War Fin ance Corporation. This is a doubtful expediency. The War Finance Corporation may be able to supply the farmers with mon ey, but it cannot change the prices for agricultural products or provide the farmers with better market fa cilities. And these, as all will admit, are the most important phrases of the situation. If -the farmer can be furnished with sufficient funds to finance the crops of next season, it will be a no table achievement by congress. But no law made by man can bol ster up falling prices, or make it Possible to sell products for which there is no demand. The situation was well expressed by Senator Nelson, when this sub ject was brought up in the senate, as follows: 'To get better markets we must have a" greater demand from abroad. In this country we raise a surplus of agricultural products; our production is much greater than our consump tion; we have to get rid of that sur plus, and in order to get rid of that surplus we must sell it to advantage to other countries. With the excep tion of two crops produced in the United States, namely cotton and corn, we come into competition with all the world." There can be no foreign market tin iaw anu oruer are restorea in European countries and they arc put in a position where they can buy our products. "They are.'' said the L.-n10A. ...1 n.l.... t ...III. ....l v no lu i , liaiu 1 1, lUUCljr, Willi 11 ' money or credit, and also with a shortage of goods to exchange for our products. None of these things is touched by the senate resolutions, and very naturally Senator Nelson feared that it "might prove a disap pointment." That is, we think quite likely. The War Finance Corpora tion was devised for the purpose, not of finding markets or establishing prices, but of financing far as might be found advisable, establishments, engaged in the production or impor tation of war materials. It could advance money to the far mers, but could not effect the price of crops, as Senator Nelson points out, or solve the problem of mar kets. Nor would the high duties that are suggested help in any way, since they would tend to shut the farmers up to the already saturated home market, and make it still more difficult for foreigners to buy of us. There are indications that the situa tion is gradually curing .itself. Fresh strength in the wheat market, with advancing prices,, was-noted in Chi cago yesterday owing,' it is said, to the belief that "the period of liqui dation in grain was at end." Ex port demands are increasing, and on ly 15,00,000 bushels of the visible supply is to be. found at western ter minals. Whatever we can do to improve world conditions will be directly in the interest of the American farmer. Finally, it shoulcJrbe said for Senator Nelson that he realizes the serious ness of the situation, is entirely sym pathetic, and prepared to do all thut can be done to afford relief. 0:0 GOVERNMENT RELIEF. Secretary Houston and the federal reserve board are" right in holding that no. class of citizens, not even so important a class as the farmers, is entitled to government relief as against falling prices, that could not be demanded with equal justice by all classes in like cases. Everyone knows that merchants have been caught with high-priced goods on their shelves, and that some of them have been under the necessity of shouldering heavy losses. If the rule that it was sought to establish had been' adopted, the government would have been converted into re lief agency, not simply" for certain classes, but for the whole people. We should then have had a develop ment of paternalism such as had never before been dreamed of. Busi ness, including the business of agri culture, is entitled to fair treatment by the banks even to liberal treat ment as far as this is consistent with safety. But the loans, that are made must be good loans, and well se cured. If they are not, we should have a repetition on a vast scale of bank failures in North Dakota. Nor is it the business of the gov ernment to maintain prices, or to in tervene to prevent their fall. The fact that some people suffer from ,such a movement is not relevant t the issue. It is on this principle that the treasury and banks have acted. The result will be found to be in the interest of the, very classes that are seeking relief. For the extreme prices have had the effect of curtailing purchases. Now that prices have fallen, purchases have increased. The government is en sure. During the campaign much political capital might have been made by concessions, but there weri no concessions, but, on the contrary, a strict adherence to sound princi ples. Whether the federal reserve sys tem works well depends largely on the character of the men who admin ister it. It can be made to servo po litical ends, as it could have been this year. There are. therefore, no more important appointments than those to the federal reserve board. :o: No Journal Christmas day. will be printed on -:o:- The prohibition commissioner sug gests that all liquor now. in ware houses in the United States be con centrated in two or three warehous es in Kentucky.

Santa Claus, who used to put the high priced presents in the silk stockings and the cheap ones in the cotton ones with unerring regular ity, may have to take a faiion mag azine along this year to keep straight on the woolen stockings. 0:0 A Paris physician says operations for appendicitis will soon be a thing of the past. We feared they were over-doing the thing. As Dr. P. T. Barnum estimated, there is only one appendix born every minute, and the surgeons have operated in excess of the rate. 0:0 Representative Fordney comes along with another of his represen tative suggestions for prohibition en forcement, this one being a removal o fall the liquor bans for a brief per iod, thereby permitting the country to end the liquor question all at once by "one grand jag." The trou ble is that the same plan has failed in two previous grand jags one on June 30, 1919. and the other on January 15, 1920. And still some liquor remained. Chamberlain's Cough.
