ALTON COMMISSION As REM
EpY FOR PRESENT EVILS.
FIXING OF PRICES POSSIBLE
Attorney General, In Duluth Address,
Proposes Powers Like Interstate
Commerce Board's-Says Law OF
Supply and Demand Nu!!!fed.

Duluth, Minn.-Attorney General
Wickersham, speaking before the Min
nesota Bar association here, advocated
a federal commission for the regula-
ton of corporations in the same way
as the Interstate commerce board now
curbs the railroads.
The cabinet member declared also
that the duty of fixing prices OF COM
modities might devolve upon this COM
mission. though he expressed some
doubt of the practicability OF this
phase of the plan.
The law of supply and demand, MIR.
Wickersham said. no longer controls
prices in the United States. For
years, he said, the prices in all he
great staple Industries have been
fixed by agreement between the pr1n-
cipal producers and not by a normal
play of free competition.
An Interstate commission, the attor-
ney general added, would prevent VIC
lations of the antitrust laws and aid
business men to maintain a continued
status of harmony with the require
ments of the statutes.
That further regulation Of corpora
lions carrying On commerce among
the states may be necessary" he said.

comment. 1t has been openly advo-

some of the largest combinations OF

master, than disseminated properties

slant government supervision.
but there are other reasons LOT
such regulation. The federal depart
ment of justice Is not organized or
equipped to maintain constant super
vision and control Of business organ
izations. It deals only with cases OF
violation of the law. The activities OF
an administrative board or commits
sion would be directed to preventing
such violations and in aiding business
men to maintain a continued status
of harmony with the requirements OF
law.
whether such a federal industrial
commission should have power to reg
ulate prices is, Of course a matter for
serious consideration. The Interstate
law prescribed as a legis-
lative rule hat prices for t~ransporta-
ton by rail, or wire, or pipe line. shall

Can Hunt Prairie Chickens.

Pierre.-The game warden depart
ment is busy issuing huting licenses
for this year. For the first time in
five years, prairie chicken and grouse
can be legally hunted, and as last year
and this yea have been favorable
one for the Matching and rearing of
young chickens, they are reported to
be plentiful in a number of sections
of the state, making a demand for a
greater number than usual of hunting
permits in those particular sections.
The large number Of licenses this
year will greatly increase receipts.

For Special Rates.

Pierre.-On account of the scar.
city of feed west of the Nilsson
ri river this year, the Northwest.
ern road has fled with the state
railway commission a schedule of
special freight rates on hay, which
makes a rate of % cents a hundred
on that commodity from all points in
the state east of the Missouri to all
points west as far as Belle Fourche
and Hot Springs, with ar addition of
one cen a hundred to points east of
Belle Fourche.
This rate applies from Yankton or
Alcester on their south line, Brookings
on the east and Redfeld on the north,
and the rate is made the same from
these points to or between any of the
intermediary points. This will give
the shippers an opportunity to get a
cheaper rate on hay required for feed
ing at west river points this winter.

when the county superintendent arc
called upon to look after contagious
diseases and to give their time and
attention to the work. that the county
commissioners refuse to allow their
bills for such service, or if they are
allowed at all, they are cut to practi-

DUBLIN IN FESTIVAL
GARB GREETS THE KING

DUBLIN, July Skiing George re-
ceived a loyal welcome to Dublin to-
day. The King, accompanied by the
Queen, the Prince of Wales and Prin-
cess Mary arrived at Kingstown har-
Dor on the royal yacht Victoria and
Albert last night Today the royal
party entered the capital, where they
were received by Lord Lieutenant OF
Ireland and other officials.
The King wants to see all parts OF
the empire and every phase of life in
it, and he spent one of the busiest
days of his life looking over that por-
ton contained within the boundaries
of Dublin. After attending several
functions this afternoon, he drove to
Phoenix Park to see the races for the
Kings cup. All along the route and
at the race track he was enthusiast
ically cheered. He arrived just IN
time to see Richard Cookers Bonanet
win the fourth race, and hear the
former Tammany chief vociferously
cheered.
Among other affairs which the
King attended was the opening of a
play-center in the poorest and rough
est district in Dublin. 1t was a time
of the greatest anxiety for the police
before the Kings arrival. The police
and crowds had several encounters,
in one of which a sergeants arm was
broken. Troops were brought up, but
were not required.
AS soon as the King appeared the
people, who are perhaps the poorest
of his subjects, were carried away
with enthusiasm, and gave him by
far the most cordial reception of the
day. Men and women, who had been
jeering the police and soldiers, broke
into hearty cheers which continued
throughout the district. The King
and Queen, although tired, showed
their great pleasure at this ovation,
which was entirely unexpected in that
quarter.
Business was suspended through
out the city and the streets were
crowded with people who had come
to see what to them was an interest
ing pageant. Students from Trinity
College gathered in force on College
Green and gave their Majesties a 10y
al and enthusiastic welcome. The
threatened counter demonstration did
not materialize.

POSSIBILITIES OF
MOVING PICTURES

mONINS TlO OhEO
The secretary of the National Board
of Censorship is quoted in the Moving
Picture News:
"The motion pictures are doing for
dramatic art what the invention of the
printing press did for literature, and
to get the perspective of an invention
of this sort one must look at it not in
terms of a business to provide recrea-
ton, which is the purely amusement
phase, but from the standpoint OF
an invention which will supply hui
manity with means of expression
and impression along many lines.
Someone has predicted that the time
will come when the business done in
educative motion pictures alone will
bear at least the same proportion to
the entire motion picture trade as the
enormous text book business now
bears to the entire publishing out.
put.
"The censoring committee insists
that there shall be no sensationalism
and no representation of crime except
with the object of conveying a moral
lesson. Crime for crimes sake is
condemned. Certain socially forbid
den themes are, of course, prescribed,
and any leaning toward oversensation-
alism is discouraged, but for the ex-
IRENE demand which is sometimes
made, namely, that all pictures of
crime or violence be forbidden, the
board is compelled. to point out that
such standard would prohibit pracd-
cally all of Shakespeare and the other
classics, and even some of the best
Biblical motion pictures that have
been made, and would likewise make
