LIVING COST TO BE MADE SUBJECT
 FOR U. s. PROBE

Washington, D. C., Nov 25.-That the Wilson administration and the Democrats in Congress are determined if possible to get at the reason for the present high cost of foodstuffs has been made evident in two quarters Also they hope to find some plausible explanation of why prices continue to rise despite the Democratic tarim law
 Representative Fred Britten, of Chi cago, prepared to go after the Beef Trust with a resolution to ascertain the reason for the alleged discrimina- ton in prices, and James c. McRey- holds, Attorney General, announced the scheme of his Inquiry into the op- erattons of the cold storage plants of the country
 Britten has in hand information that the Navy Department has closed as contract with Argentine for the pI1r- chase of 2s5,O00 pounds of beef at a. price considerable lower than that at which such a supply could be obtained Ni7 domestic markets He intends to call the attention of Congress to this in the hope that 'severy household in America can receive similar advan- tages-'' He will introduce his reso1u- ton Wednesday,

 Argentine and other foreign coun- tries are now shipping large quantities of beef into the United States,'' said Representative Britten, in discussing his resolution. They have plenty of cattle for sale and will continue to have large supply. The American public is facing meat famine, and some provision should be made where by the present shortage can be re- ueved. If these South American mar kets could be opened to the average household, as the government has opened them for the use of the navy the scarcity of beef and meats which we now feel would be greatly les sene0."

Brady's playhouse.
 Nowadays when a girl weds, her friends do not say, What kind of a man is her. but more frequently, What has he got2'' There seems to be a pretty general idea that a girl hould bargain.

 Stafford does not know whether he loves the girl or not, but he knows he wants always to be near her and pro tect her, and he ir1terprets sthat as love, and it probably is-
 Two other people in the play, hard Iy less prominent, are Jimmie Gil- ley, a fourteen dollar a week shipping clerk, who marries Virginia's sister, and Fanny Blaine, who becomes Mrs. James GiIIey.
