WASHINGTON. Dec. 2s.-Fear that the

Columbia University, who delivered an
address here to-day on racial elements

International Congress OF Americanists.
The claim that the amount OF mix

times in Europe cannot be maintained"

Or. Boas said that the predominant
types among the population OF the
American continent are those In which
the Indigenous element forms a ing
percentage, those with "A strong Negro

European sources.
"In those populations in which the

clared to-day that so many letters are
pouring in upon members IN favor II
prohibiting price cutting OF standard ar
t.cles by retailers that the hill legal zing
this probably would become a law AT
this session.
Mr.. Ayres has introduced a bill some
what like one that wae buried In COM
mit;ee last year.
The idea OF the bill IL to permit a
manufacturer Of a standard article "a
determine tn. price and to prevent q re-
taller from selling II nj any other price
The idea j. to prevent some retailers
from cutting the price as a bait 10 draw
patrons 10 their stores, thus c~heapeninC
the article in the estimation OF the pub

The bill contains provisions To prevent
any OF the abuses which might grow
out Of retail price liking.
Standard articles on which the manu-.
fscturer complies with the requirement.
Of the bill must be labelled. stating the
price plainly, and this label cannot be
removed until the package is in the
hands Of the consumer.
