High Cost of Living.

That the plan of holding thrice-a-

District building will be continued as
long as housekeepers manifest desire
to obtain the aid of the local authori-

The next meeting will be held to-
morrow morning. when Supt. Sherman
will again outline methods for the or

Composed of from three to ten families
each, the leagues are a medium for the
purchase of commodities at wholesale
prices, thereby entafling a considerable
saving to the members.
Mr.. Sherman tomorrow will describe
conditions existing at the municipal fish
and Haskell produce markets, institu-
tons operated under the control of
the District, and will offer suggestions
as to the best method of obtaining
food supplies at these markets.

SENATE PASSES COTTON BILL.
Warehouses of Various Commodities
to Be Licensed.

The Senate passed the Hoke Smith
bill for the government licensing OF
cotton warehouses late yesterday after
noon. The bill was designated to
strengthen cotton warehouse re-
ceipts so that the producers of cotton
in this country could more readily OBJ
tain money on their produce.
Before the bill was passed amend
ments were made extending similar
licenses to warehouses for grain and
faxseed, tobacco and naval stores and
canned salmon. A limitation was
placed in the bill so as to exempt from
operation of the grain provision those
states having a state grain inspection
service.
The Senate defeated attempts to ex-
tend still further the government Ii
cense to warehouses for apples and
peaches and to tanks and pipe lines for
oil storage.
The bill now goes to the House for
action.

JAPANESE CRUISER IDZUMO
IN SAN DE FUCA STRAITS
Wership Reported to Be Headed
for Canadian Naval
Base.

SAN FRANCISCO. August 25,-The
marine correspondent at Tatoosh.
Wash, of the San Francisco chamber
of commerce telegraphs that the Papa
nese cruiser Idzumo, which left here
last Saturday. passed into the Straits
of Juan de F'uca early today, appar-
emily bound for the Canadian naval
base at Esqumault.
The appearance of the Idzumo in
northern waters was a surprise and not
even speculative explanations We're
forthcoming.
1t had been supposed that the Idzumo
would convoy the Japanese steamship
Shinyo Maru, which sailed yesterday
for Japan. A report that the two ves-
sells Joined company last night is now
shown to have been an error.
Apparently the Idzumo will use Esaui-
mault for a base and will continue to
operate on the Canadian and American
Pacific coasts as a protection for Brit
ish, Japanese and French shipping

Both Mathey and Church showed
flashes of brilliancy and kept down the
scores by remarkable court covering

UNDERWOOD CAUSES
STORM IN THE HOUSE

A storm was precipitated in the House
today when Democratic Leader Under
wood offered a resolution to repeal all
leaves Of absence to representatives in
Congress. to instruct the sergeant-at-
arms to bring all absentees back to
Washington and to deduct the salaries OF
those who remain away after today
unless through illness.
Republican Leader Mann headed the
opposition, declaring it was a gross in
Justice to the northern members of the
House. including northern democrats.
inasmuch as the southern members
have had their primaries and are sure
most all of the northern districts.
Representative Oglesby. New York,
asked Mr.. Underwood If he would
amend his resolution to make it apply
from the beginning of this session.
Mr.. Underwood declined. explaining
that it was offered for the particular
purpose of bringing members back.
Mr.. Underwood said that he offered
the resolution not as criticism, but
as matter Of government necessity.
He said he realized that this Is a po-
litical year. but that 1t was necessary
and more important for representatives
ness. He said that undoubtedly before
adjournment of Congress a bill would
be passed to meet the expected falling
on of S10O.000,000 in customs revenue.
Republican Leader Mann said he
would like to ask some South Carolina
memb Der question, paused and then re-
minded the House that all of the South
Carolina delegation were at home at
tending the primaries.
Mr.. Underwood said public business
Is paramount to politics, and that If
public business continues even up I'M
tn election day it would be far better
then to take recess SO as to let all
members go home alike
ut isn't fair" he said, ito have some
members kept here and to let others
neglect their duties and stay at home"
Mr.. Mann charged that majority of
the southern members have been away
attending primary campaigns and were
now assuming a virtue.
MI Underwood resented this as sec
tionalism. IF you want to draw sec
tlonal lines as the men who stay on the
job he said, you will find the south
ern members stay here much greater
percentage Of the time. When the Ala
bama primary took place the Alabama
delegation, with one exception, was on
the floor OF this House. and that is true
of most of the other southern states''
Representative Donovan of Connecti-
cut. victim of an automobile accident,
with his face bandaged and his arm in
sling, urged action. Representative john
son of Washington referred to him as
that battle-scarred veteran"
I'VE are facing additional revenue
legislation caused by disruption of bust
ness brought about by the European
war;, admonished Leader Underwood.
I'VE will probably lose 500. 900 in
customs receipts There is distress
about in the land caused by business
disruption from the war;
South Carolina Men Absent.
When Mr.. Mann vainly looked for
single member of the South Carolina
delegation Representative Pou of
North Carolina shouted, Here's North
Carolina
YES" replied Mr.. Mann, but you've
held your primaries"
Resolution Adopted.
The vote on division was 141 for and
Is against.
On the roll call the resolution passed,
213 to 81.

eminent help was the opinion expressed
by Wesley Drane president Of the First
National Bank Of GAINESVILLE, Tenn.
In this Secretary McAdoo acquiesced.
saying it should have been done long
ago. He confirmed Mr.. Drane's opinion
that the government can only give aid
to national banks and banks members
of national currency associations.
Representative Thomas U. Sissons OF
have not nationalized because Of the tax
put by the law upon state banks issuing
currency, which has destroyed the state
bank circulation. He declared his opin-
ion that it was therefore up to the gov
eminent, in the situation. to consider
the needs of all interests. He would re-
peal the tax on state banks and also
pass laws allowing them to issue cur
rency.
Resolutions were passed authorizing the
Secretary of the Treasury to appoint q
committee personnel and number IN ms
own discretion, to confer with him re-
garding the cotton crop situation.
Favor Ship Purchases.
The discussion of yesterday afternoon
developed a sentiment favorable to the
proposed purchase Of ships by the gov
eminent for the foreign trade. 1t was
stated that with South American and
Asiatic trade routes opened to American
ships the American cotton manufacturers
could extend their cotton cloths to these
markets and increase their consumption
of raw cotton by 1.5OOO0O bales. The gen.
eral opinion was that 100000 or 10000
bales of cotton would have to be carried
over as a result of the closing OF the
British, French and German mills.
Cotton manufacturers promised to make
every effort to increase their consumption
and agreed not to force down prices for
raw cotton. Bankers agreed to make
every legitimate effort to aid IN the
financing of the crop.
The President in a brief speech to the
of the cotton industry
when he received them at the White
House in the afternoon expressed conf
dence In the present situation regarding
cotton and said that he had no doubt
that the situation would be met without
serious results to any of the cotton inter-
ests. He said that the cotton conference,
he was sure. had not come to Washington
to ask for rescue" but to counsel with
all interested and to place in the hands
of capable and earnest men the means for
carrying the country through this emer-

of Justice.

In many of the reports now being re-
ceived at the Department of Justice
from United States district attorneys
who are conducting the investigation
into the great increase in the cost of
prices of food since the beginning of
the European war a downward ten
dency of the prices is noted. The re-
ports of the attorneys declare this is
directly due to the vigor with which
the investigation is being pushed by
the department and it's agents.
The United States attorney at Balti-
more. Nd. after noting the increases
in number of articles. in a message
to the Department of Justice declared
he believed the high price Of meats was
due to the quotations by the large
packing houses. He says, further, that
the highest prices were reached dur
ing the week of August 10, and that
the tendency last week was downward,
and that the retail prices dropped on
the average of 10 per cent This, he
