WHOLE CITY IN WAR AGAINST
HIGH JUMPIN PRICES
Armours, Swifts and all big pack
ing and cold storage interests are now
getting the fiercest challenge they
have heard in years. At one end every
public official who has power to throw
things open and find out what is go
ing on in the price-fxing game has
announced that he has investigators
out on the job. Both States Atty
-Hoyne and Federal Dist Atty Wilker-

pound of food out of this country If
the price on that food has been raised
in this country"
This is the def hurled by the Ma
tional Association of Retail Grocers,
through the chairman of its trades
relations committee, Sol Westerfeld.
He is a grocer at 1409 w. Madison
street, and is selling sugar at 6 cents
a pound, though all the Chicago
wholesale houses are demanding 8
cents a pound. WeSter1elQ says his
committee meets in the Hartford
building Monday and will take drastic
action. The closing of all stock ex-
changes, boards of trade and any
other food gambling institutions will
be called for from the federal govern
,ment. A committee viii be selected to
take a message to President Wilson
and congressman at Washington.
Just as soon as the city council gets
back and ready for work it will have
to pass on some sort of an ordinance
calling for open records of all buyers,
sales and prices of food. Every pack
er, wholesaler and commission man
will be ordered to write down who
buys, how much is delivered and how
much is paid, for meat, sugar, beans,
potatoes or any food supplies.
Aid. Henry Utpatel favors this sort
of on ordinance and said To a DaV

REPORTS BERLIN QUIET AND

Washington, Aug. 15.-Ambassa-
dor Gerard cabled the state depart
ment today that the American As
sociation of Commerce and Trade of
Berlin requests Americans ito be
careful in giving credit to war re-
ports" The association said:
eve would ask the American press
and Americans in general to be care
full in giving credence to war reports,
now circulating in the United States
concerning conditions in Germany.
The city of Berlin is perfectly quiet.
Food prices are normal. Foreigners,

can be any control by the people of

of this sort will help us to find the

The Socialists will make the food

cording to Walter Lanfersiek, nation
al secretary. Their demand is that
the national government step in and
grab the whole stockyards plant and
sell meats at cost prices.

WAR IN % DAYS
Cut Off Export of War
Supplies to Europe.
Says Representative
Vollmer
SHOULD ACT FOR
HUMANITY'S SAKE
Says His Pending Resolution in Con-
gress Is in Line With Historic
Reputation of America as Greatest
Advocate of Peace
By Associated Press.

Washington, Dec. 30.-How the
United States could end the European
war in ninety days by cutting off the
export of war supplies was described to-
day by Representative Vollmer, of Iowa,
to the House Foreign Affairs commit
tee. With Representative Bartholdt, he
endorsed joint resolution to empower
the President in his discretion to pro.
hibit such exports.
American embargoes from 1894 down
to the Mexican embargo in 1912 were
cited by Vollmer in a legal argument to
support the constitutional right of Con.
gress to act.
President Wilson, he said, "sus-
pended the embargo on export of arms
and munitions to Mexico in the inter.
ests of true neutrality as against neu-
traEty on paper.
In Position of Arch-Hypocrite
90 maintain that the pending resolu.
tion is in line with the historic reputa-
tion of this nation as the greatest ad.
vocate of peace. 1t is not in line with
that reputation to supply the instru,
ments of murder to European nations.
Are we to take the position of the
arch -hypoi:rite among the nations; are
We to get u'con our knees and pray for
peace and at the same time supply the
death-dealing instruments to Europe'
Are we to plead with God for peace
with the blood money in our pockets'
"We are now in the position of send.
ing dollars for Belgium and dunn dun
bullets for Germany
Says Germany Can't Be Beaten
Representative Volmer emphatically
declared: Germany cannot be beaten
in this war. Her people are united and
to fight to the last drop of blood. If
this war continues it will go on and on
until all the world is dragged down to
bankruptcy.
''There is only one nation whose
lines of national interest are hopeless.
ly opposed to ours. | do not hesitate to
predict that Japan proposes to hold,
not only Kiao Chow, but the islands
on the Pacific which she has seized.
Some day this issue must be tried out
in the Pacific and it may be to the in
terest of this country to have a power
full fleet at her side.
Representative Bartholdt told the
committee that Sin dollar neutrality
the United States was alternating the
friendship of Germany and Austria.
Selling Neutrality for British Gold
"The alliance of Great Britain with
Japan is not agreed on for our future
in the Pacific. We are now selling our
neutrality for British gold," said he.
sis it your contention that while
technically neutral, we are really one
of the allies, supplying the bullets for
the others9" asked Representative
Cooper.

fAVORS KEEPING
CURB ON MAYORS

to pay an annual license tax Of 800
was stricken out. The so-called "wel-
fare' clause was amended by fixing
ninety instead of thirty days as pen.
atty for violating city regulations.
Amendments dealing with the iniative
and referendum, regulation Of tax levy
and the elimination of the smoke nui-
sance were taken up this afternoon.
Harrisburg oficials Active
Harrisburg ofieialdom was represent
ed at the meeting by Mayor John K.
Royal, City Commissioners W. H.
Lynch, M. Harvey Taylor and Harry F.
Bowman, City Solicitor ID. s. Seitz, City
Clerk Charles A. Miller and Assistant
City Clerk r. X. Seaman.
Furthermore, the capital city delega-
tion was heard from. One of the more
important amendments, the part of a
section making it optional instead Of
mandatory for a city commission to ad-
vertise for bids for municipal work or
materials costing more than 500, was
retained upon motion of City Clerk Mil
Ter. The effect of the amendment will
be to give the Commissioners a chance
to determine whether or not they shall
advertise for bids or whether they can
obtain prices regardless of bids or even
do the work themselves. Incidentally
the action will, it is held. serve to make
the bidders keep down their figures.
OF course, Harrisburg s delegation
got into the discussion relative to the
designation Of the police chief by the
mayor. Mayor Stratton, of Reading,
who led the fight to have the amend
ment retained, said he believed the may
or s job was entirely different from that
of the other commissioners in that he
had peculiar responsibilities relative to
the safety of the city. For that rea-
son, he said, he thinks the mayor should
have the right to designate his own
police chief and other officers of the
police force.
Royal as Voting Spokesman
Mayor Royal said he emphatically
agreed with the Reading magistrate,
and then he conferred with the others
of the Harrisburg delegation upon the
question of voting
Mayor Royal served all day as the
voting spokesman for the city delega-
ton. Commissioners Lynch, Bowman
and Taylor were opposed to the amend
ment and wanted Harrisburg recorded
as voting to strike it out.
Personally said the Mayor, 81
am for the amendment. but the major
ity of the delegation is opposed to it,
so on behalf of Harrisburg / vote

When the question of the term of of
flee for mayor and councilmen was be-
fore the convention Mayor Royal sug-
gested that the proposed 4year amend
ment go into effect for mayors after
January. 1916.
