the cases of two school teachers, both
of whom were college graduates.

have more love and devote more atten-
ton to their babies than do the women
who place their babes in the care OF
servants and see them only once in u
great while. according to Mrs. james
of Wilkes Barre, Pa.
These are a few of the statements
which were made today in the reports
given by officials of homes in various

Confidence in Dealers.

I'VE believe, therefore. that no ac-
tion should be taken until conditions
are more nearly normal, but that it
should be determined at this time that
the lesson now learned shall not be
forgotten. We believe that the pro-
ducers of bread in the District will. in
appreciation of this forbearance on the
part of the public, and also in appre-
citation of the fact that a higher
priced loaf, or a markedly inferior loaf,
will certainly bring insistent demand
for and enactment of drastic legisla-
ton, whether normally advisable or
not, will do all in their power to main
tain the f1ve-cent loaf of bread.
I'm the meantime, we advise all users
of bread to equip themselves with
scales capable of weighing, with rea-
soma BILE accuracy, to ounces. and to re-
ward the bakers who are serving the
public best, by frequently comparing
the weights of the loaves of bread they
purchase, and regularly buying those
makes of bread which combines good
quality with the greatest weight when
twelve hours old.

People Have Clung to Delusion.

"For six years Washington people have
clung to this delusion. apparently not
noticing that, though the loaf might
become smaller when wheat was high,
it did not become unusually large or
heavy when -four was unusually low.
This department has consistently urged
the enactment of such legislation as
would standardize the loaf of bread,
but when public hearings were called,
only the opposition put in an appear
ance and the public showed little in
terest.
"On account of the abnormal condi-
tions now existing, it would be impos-
sible, at this time. to determine what
would be the proper weights, at normal
prices of flour, to yield fair and nor
NAL profit. and if it were possible the
passage of such a law right in the
period of greatest stress might be un-
fair to the producers Of bread. Also.
with prices of flour soaring and flucuat-
ing violently. as they are certain to do
in the near future. new standardizing
legislation would at this time probably
result in the or I cent loaf. and it
would be difficult to get the price down
again when conditions become normal
again.

PROPOSES SETTLEMENT
OF STATE DEBT FIGHT
Special Master Littlefeld Acts in
Virginia-West Virginia
Case.

Special Master Charles +. Littlefield
today recommended TO the Supreme
Court of the United States that after
reviewing recent testimony presented
to him in the Virginia West Virginia
debt suit, the two states should share
in the common assets as OF January /.
1861, and West Virginia should be la
BILE for interest on her proportion OF
the debt from that date until paid.
The court already had found that
West Ffrginia's share of the principal
debt of s33.o00,ooo should be s1.1S2, 900,
but West Virginia about 4 year ago
laid claims to joint assets of the two
states. Virginia on the other hand
claimed interest from West Virginia.
The report was extended and was re-
garded as working a radical change in
the litigation.
