U. S. ATTORNEY KANE
KEEPING WATCH ON
BREAD PROBLEM
His Office May Proceed In
dependently if Price In
crease Violates Federal
Law.

II the reduction of the size of loaf of
bread or the boosting of the cost of the
loaf violates the Federal laws, United
States Attorney Francis Fisher Kane has
the power to proceed at once against the
offending bakers and grocers. In this re-
gard Mr. Kane said today:
This office may proceed independently
II discover that the increase in the price
OF bread violates the Federal laws, but I
shall not take any action without pre-
viously availing myself of the counsel of
the chief OF this department in Washing
ton. 1t seems to me that II any one ought
to take action In this matter at this time
It surely Is the Government. but have
not studied the matter to that end"
MR.. KANE's PLANS.
Mr.. Kane was asked IL he had begun
any investigation into the cause OF the
rise in the price of grain. He said
that he had read in the newspapers that
m investigation had been begun by the
Department OF Justice at Washington into
conditions in the Chicago wheat pit with
a View TO the prosecution Of the wheat
gamblers II the Federal laws were being
violated. In regard to his own office here,
Mr. Kane said:
IT haye no knowledge that there Is any
thing being done here in regard TO the
grain market l am doing nothing. my
ONCE has received no communication
from Washington in that regard, but l
am not in position to say what, II any
thing, the investigating department may
be doing. II it is active here, have no
information TO that effect"

FOR THE WOMAN AND THE HOME-PRIZ
How She Gels the Heavy End of The Load
By
ELLEN ADAiR

week This regular salary Is delightful
there Is no doubt Of that, and puts a
woman into harmony with all the world
But the stay-at-home girl experiences
no such interesting and stimulating sem
sation Upon the contrary, she has to go
to her father for every cent she spends
and he probably gives 1t to her with bad
grace, which makes the asking doubly
hard.
For no girl on earth likes to have to
"ask" for money. 1t is unpleasant to say
the least of It. Yet the stay-at-home
| girl ought not to feel that It is unpleas-
ant, for II any one has earned full right
to money. it is she. She works harder
in the home than do her sisters In their
offices. and her reward is as nothing COM
pared with theirs.
There Is q curious idea prevalent that
the stay-at-home member of the family
has an easy and pleasant life, sheltered
from the ups and downs that beset the
business world, and free of the worries
that business always brings. Nothing OF
the sort! She has just as many cares and
worries as her business slsters' anu
doesn't get half the sympathy they do
For work done in the home generally
goes unnoticed Yet in every home there
is a tremendous amount of work to be
done, and the person who attends to the
hundred and one extra odds and ends has
a pretty thin time of It.
A mans work is from to sun,
But womnn's work Is never done.
And this applies to the stay-at-home
girl Yet so many people imagine that
her life is just a bed of roses. L have
frequently heard girls profess to envy her.
You lucky girl" they will say. Able
to lie in bed till ten in the morning, II
you want to! Able to keep all social en-
gaeements and have a perpetual easy
time You don't know your own luck"
And the stay-at-home girl doesn't con-
tradict them. She realizes that it would
be useless But deep in her heart of
hearts she is envying these business girls
their independence. their satisfying
careers and their assured salaries.
