Chairman of Submarine Prob. CTS Recommends That He
 Keep Silent.
TALK WILL ONLY HURT HIM
Says Lillcy Had Three Months in Which to Express His Suspicious
 Before Committee.

Chicago, June 3.-Congressman II. S. Boutell, who was chairman of the house committee which conducted the submarine boat investigation, In reply ing today to charges made against him by Representative George L. Lilley of Connecticut. said that there was only one feature of Mir. Lilleys statement that called for reply from him or from any other member of the com mittee.
 T should prefer 10 say nothing" said Mir Boutell, but others than myself are involved and Mir. Lilley has called down his punishment upon his own head. Nothing would now be so be- coming in him as silence and nothing would he so much appreciated by his friends and relatives. There is noth- ing that he can say under the present conditions, but what he and all who are interested in him will regret.
 Before adjournment of congress Mir. Lllley had three months after the in- troduction of the resolution in which to express his views and suspicious, either on the floor of the house or un- der oath before the Investigating com mittec."

TRIBUTE TO MIR. HACKETT.
High School Paper Speaks in Compli-
 mcntnry Manner of Instructor.

A slight token of the esteem in which William II. Hackett is held by the students of the New Haven high school has vented itself in an editorial of the Focus monthly publication by the students of the high school. This paper Is not the first one at the school that has called the attention of the students 10 the debt owed to Mir. Hackett for His generosity and goo>i will The Crescent and the Radiator, two other publications, have also spoken of Mir, Hackett, "the father of athletics.
 The editorial follows:
 "Apropos of what has been said in our last issue concerning New Haven high schools debt to Mir. Hackett, it seems only just and right to speak of the other excellent works which our friend and instructor has accomplish ed for us. Not only has he been the president of the athletic association but he has also financed it. Our boys may well thank him for the many games won by his energetic coaching Mir Hackett is always for the right always for the square deal--many a time we hear him say: Don't do 1t, boys; 1t Isn't square!' And 1t doesn't matter who he is addressing either for he stands for fairness and jus tice
 The School Circle owes its exist ence to him, for 1t was conceived and | IaI t.. T .t.is trait of MT Hackett's Is that we al- ways find a friend in need in him To teachers, scholars and graduates he is ever ready to lend a helping hand or say q kind word"

SIGNIFICANCE OF IRON CUT
Forerunner of Lower Prices in Fin
 ished Products.

New York, June '3-The Iron Age will say tomorrow: The full signifi- canoe of the concerted reduction in the price of steel bars and small shapes cannot yet he measured. It will probably lead to establishments of such collateral lines as bands and merchant steel. Many in the trade regard It as the forerunner of lower prices along the whole line of fnan- clal products. The fact that the large steel interests are still in conference in this city is worthy of mention in this connection.
 The blast furnace statistics collect ed by the Iron Age show that the out put in May was 1,164.000 tons as compared with 1,l50,o00 tons in April the merchant furnace product decln- ing from 14104 tons daily in April to 1S,039 tons daily in May. Productive capacity, however. appears to be de- creasing with a weekly capacity of 26S,674 tons, as against 14l furnaces and 260,5s tons capacity on June 1.

AID FOR STARVING SCHOOL CHILDREN Emergency Measures Taken in New York to Relieve
 Destitute East
 Siders.
MANY FAINT AT DESKS
Revelations of Past Few Days Show Extent of the Suffering Caused by Business Dcpres-
 sion.

New York, June 3.-Emergency measures for the relief of hundreds of pupils in East Side schools who have been found to be suffering from lack of food have been adopted by the com mittee of East Side school board members, organized as a result of the serious conditions which the reports of scLool principals in the section had revealed.
 At conference late to-day the committee decided to arrange for the speedy opening of two kitchens on the lower east side at which the hungry children might be fed. While the funds for the support of these kitch- ems have been supplied only in part. the public has been stirred by the dis closures of the pitiable plight of chil- dren faintlns at their desks from want of sufficient nourishment that the committee anticipates no trouble in securing by subscription all the money needed for the purpose.
 That the reports already made pub lie have hardly painted conditions black enough was the statement maLv to-day by Isadore NJ. Levy. chairman of the Third school district commit tee. An investigation, said Mir. Levy, has shown that many of the destitute families have sent their little tots to school without having given them food for forty-elght hours. To my own personal knowledge several children have faintcd while they were recitine in their class rooms"
 Destitution has visited hundreds of East Side families as the result of the business depression. which has thrown heads of households and other bread winners out of employment. While it had been known that there was con siderable suffering as result of this enforced likeness. the extent of the pow erty that existed and its disastrous re- action upon the children of the district had not until recently been realized by the public. The revelations of the past day or two. however. have caused ac- tive measures for relief to be instituted Not only have the educational authori- charitable societies have begun active work for allevlating the distress Among these are the Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor and the United Hebrew charities.
 The teachers and principals organiz- alton, perfected to-day is 10 be called tho Children's Relief society. and to- night 1t made an announcement that tomorrow the hungry children in many receive tickets entitling them to a sub. Nstantial luncheon consisting of soup, ar egg, plenty of rolls and butter, crack. CTS and steriliZed milk.
