one. The old gaftie of secret diplomacy is at work, with each
nation scheming for position and endeavoring to put some-
thing over on some other country.
Intense bitterness has cropped out between the delegates
;from abroad, and heated words are said to have passed in the
'committee rooms.' ,
I There appears to be no singleness of purpose—no willing-
ness to give and take—only a desire to take without giving.
Such a spirit will not achieve the results the wo,rld desires
and expects. A covenant entered into under such conditions
can hardly be lasting. It may even go into history as another
"scrap of paper.”
The conference is falling down.

WHERE THE FARMER SUFFERS
The price of farm products are down, close to the 1914
level. That would be fine if other commodities were down in
proportion.
But high wages still prevail in the cities in all lines. This
means that the manufacurer and wholesaler must continue to
charge the country merchant high prices for his goods.
The country merchant in turn must charge the farmer in
proportion to what he himself pays to the manufacturer or
wholesaler. 4
Very simple and easily understood, but anything but satis-
factory to the farmer.
