The Cost of Shoes Will the New Deal policies, some of which have already been invalidated by the United States Supreme Court, result in a higher price for shoes, to the American public? When the buying of drouth cattle was first commenced, the packers were permitted to keep possession of the hides, then the government decided to take charge of those coming in. As a result more than two million hides are said to have been accumulated by Uncle Sam and stored in warehouses. The hides are said to be still in storage and deteriorating daily with the result, according to leather experts, that if the hides are not used before long the entire consignment will have been rendered valueless. This of course will cost the government a lot of money but Uncle Sam is used to writing off losses in these hectic days. But another important thought is that the waste may, through the enforced scarcity of leather for shoes, add many millions of dollars to the shoe costs of our consumers. The tendency of the price of shoes is to go up anyhow because of the increasing costs which the manufacturers have been forsed to bear. Federally controlled scarcity of leather will only tend to increase this cost. The price of leather has already increased but Uncle Sam continues to hold on to his two million hides that are becoming less useful every day. Of course it may be possible to bring prosperity to all the people through artificial scarcity, although the courts have held that this cannot be done through the processes of the AAA. But it is even now difficult to see how great benefit will come to anyone from the permanent retirement of two million hides "from circulation" at the cost of the taxpayers. If shoes go up in price because of the scarcity of leather then foot gear will cost the farmer as much more as the worker in the city. Of course while the New Dealers are trying to increase... The price of leather has already increased but Uncle Sam continues to hold on to his two million hides that are becoming less useful every day. Of course it may be possible to bring prosperity to all the people through artificial scarcity, although the courts have held that this cannot be done through the processes of the AAA. But it is even now difficult to see how great benefit will come to anyone from the permanent retirement of two million hides "from circulation" at the cost of the taxpayers. If shoes go up in price because of the scarcity of leather then foot gear will cost the farmer as much more as the worker in the city. Of course while the New Dealers are trying to increase the cost of leather in this country by impounding the hides in government worehouses, it is possible that Mr. Hull, our genial tariff manipulator, may find some scheme whereby he can lower the price by importing hides from South America and other alien lands. Then we will have the picture of Americans wearing shoes made from foreign grown hides while American hides are spoiling in American warehouses at the taxpayers' expense. It may be possible to extend this scheme a little further by importing the shoes from abroad rather than by merely bringing in the hides. Then the joy of our State Department tariff makers ought to be complete. When the AAA was criticised the New Dealers used to say, "Well what have you got in place of it?" Since the Supreme Court decision the critic may now replay: "Well, what have you got in place of it?" It used to be said that one-half of the world didn't know how the other half lived, but no doubt this isn't true in the day of so many thousands of New Deal investigators. One thing which the AAA forgot to do before it was too late was to regulate the diameter and circumference of silos. H. R.

The men gathered in an eager circle around her. Slowly, her slim body writhed in the tortuous undulations of the upau-pahura. Faster and faster, she moved, and the music of the ukareres kept pace with her ever quickening motions. Now, she glided across the deck to one sailor, but, as his waiting arms reached out to catch her, she eluded him with a sudden graceful twist of her supple, young body; now, she evaded another. "Ia ora no!" The Mate swaggered up to Mala, as he and Lilleo stood watching the dancer. "Ia ora na!" Mala replied politely. "Drink," Robbins offered, and he handed Mala a bottle. Mala tasted the strange liquid, and he liked it. He gave Lilleo the bottle. She sipped from it cautiously at first, and then, finding it pleasant, she drank deeply. Suddenly, her eyes filled with tears, and she sputtered and coughed. Mala and the Mate laughed. Robbins retrieved the bottle and returned it to Mala. Mala took a deep swallow from it. "Maruru!" Mala said. "Thank you!" "The Captain wants to see you," Robbins told him. Shyly, the tane and his vahines followed the Mate into the Captain's cabin.
