WHO Knows Situation Now?"
VINO knows what the situation at
this time may be better than the
President who is peculiarly charged
under the Constitution with respon-
gibility for foreign affairs?
Il will not. be impolite enough to
accuse anybody Of reasonable mo-
tiyes or conduct, but It seems to me
when the President, of whatever par
ty, emphasizes the dire extremity Of
the Government by going in person
to Congress and describing an OBJ
stacle to the safe conduct Of foreign
affairs and asking that 1t be removed
under the necessity Of national safety
and national honor, no man can es-
cape by bubble or sophistry. Who
ever fights the repeal now, not only
fights the honest equality and do
nestle equality Of his people, but he
fights the administration of the for
eign policy of the Government, and
If disaster results he must take his
place and share the odium and re-
sponsibility."
Il shall vote for this motion and
for the rule and for the repeal bill, :"
said Representative Clayton, of Ala
bama chairman Of the Judiciary
Committee. Il shall vote for the bill

Speaker Hits Gag" Rule.
Encouraged by the support OF

the rule to limit debate on the re-
peal, opponents Of the Admin
istration returned to the attack when
the House met to-day.
The statement of the Speaker, re-
iterating his opposition to gag" rules
such as few years ago accomplished
the overthrow Of the Republican
House machine, had complicated
matters and was expected-to line up
votes against the rule.
Representative Underwood, the ma
3ority leader. who Is opposed TO the
repeal plan, has been selected to con-
clude the debate in opposition to the
special rule The Clark broadside
bers of Congress say, will cut down
materially the administrations
strength.

 Postmaster General Burleson urged the cotton representatives to disregard radi- cal plans proposed for dealing with the situation such as the valorization of cot ton. Both the Postmaster general and the Secretary of the Treasury warned against hysteria and panic.
 Discussion developed a sentiment fav- orabe to the proposed purchase of ships by the government for the foreign trade. It was said with South American and Assatic trade routes opened to the Ameri- can ships. the American manufacturers could extend their cotton cloths to these markets and increase their consumption of raw cotton by 100000 bales.

New York. August 24.-The federal ireuiry into the higher cost of food since the war began in Europe has not developed that the increases were un-

 No evidence of conspiracies to force up the price of food has been disclosed which would warrant criminal action being instituted by the government
 MT. Wood said today. Generally speaking, there has been no unusual
 rise in the price of foodstuffs. There have been increases in few commoo- ties, but some Of these have. become Iearer because of natural causes. T will admit that the timeliness Of our inquiry might have arrested gen eral upward movement of prices due to the greed of retailers and whole salers."

Triangle Parasol Is Latest Fad

Atlantic City.-The riot of undisciplined fancy in fashions continues here, despite warnings from Paris and New York that simplicity Is to be the keynote.
 A week ago the basque dress, fashioned after the styles of 30 or more years ago, made its first appearance on the board walk, and, although there were many who declared it would not become popular be- cause too extreme there were dozens on the boardwalk today. >
 The flame veil, first seen here last Sunday, has now taken it's place as a regular feature of milady's costume, and two more novelties-thc three-cornored parasol and the 'party box"-came out this morning. Several of the new shaped parasols, which have six ribs set in pairs close together, making the three-cornered effect, were in bright kings blue silk, with a white edge and black and white cording around them further to define the shape. A directoire bow was placed at one turned-up side.
 The 'irarty box is such a handy affair that many women who purchased them recently have wondered why nobody ever though of them before The box is about six by four inches. bound in colored leather and fitted with handle. Inside are miniature toilet articles of every de- scription-nail file mirror, powder puffs. rouge pencil, chamois and hairpins. Some of the more expensive party boxes" even contain A set of 'Kis-me-quick" curls.
