All foodstuffs advanced to a prohibi-
I've price. As a result, dealers were at
racked and mobbed by infuriated citi-
ens.
Having the telegraph, telephone, and
8ilway lines already under control, the
government took charge Of the food for

at Berlin. the following appeal to stop
the Austr1a-Servia conflict:
Washington Socialists urge you In
humanity's name to stop war;
Considering Germany the stategic
point in the difficulties and the great

Germany's action with reference to this
war. If 1t gives a demand that hands
Off be the policy and this request be
not obeyed. the party could declare an
anu-war strike by refusing to trans
port munitions of war and soldiers;
by ceasing to manufacture war imple-
ments or by paralyzing commerce to
such an extent that a stoppage of the
war would result Inasmuch as the
policy of the Socialist Party Is against

The American Federation of Labor
urged our Congress to adopt that policy,
and, upon direction OF our Seattle con-
vention, communicated wit hthe offIci-
al representatives Of labor OF the vari-
Gus countries and urged them to pre-
vail upon their respective governments
to adopt naval holiday policy and from
their answers It was clearly shown that
they had taken the matter up with their
respective governments. but, inasmuch
as our American Congress had not COM
pieted the expression OF the United
States, the influence upon their gov
ernments was minimized.
There is no telling yet what course

Develop War Sentiment

BERLIN, July 2s.-Copies Of news
papers received today from Vienna and
Belgrade show that bitter batting
between the press Of Austria and servia
preceded the declaration of war. Violent
attacks were made on each side.
The Belgrade Zvono published an al
legged letter charging that Princip. assas-
sin Of Archduke Ferdinand. was an ille-
gitimate son Of woman member Of
Austrian royalty. 1t stated that the
mother urged Princip to kill FerdInad
because she believed Ferdinand plotted
the murder of her husband.
This publication infuriated the aged

Mr.. Gompers said that women were en-
