PRINTERS FIGHT
HIGH PAPER COST
Demand at Convention Real
Action by Congress.

Baltimore, Aug. 15.-" Something more
substantial than a perfunctory investi-
cation" Of the increased cost Of white
paper was demanded of congress at
the opening session Of the sixty-second
annual convention Of the International
Typographical union.
''The grip of the rising paper market
Is throttIing the life out of many strug-
Cling newspapers and commercial print
ing houses" said President Marsden g.
Scott in his annual report to the con-
vention. due to the increased cost OF
paper many publishers have been fore
ed to reduce the number OF printed
pages, and IL the price of paper is not
kept down there will be falling away
in printed matter that will force ON the
unemployed list thousands of those en-
gagged In the printing industry"
That hundreds OF public schools are
giving instruction In printing, which Is
harmful to the pupil and the trade was
charged by delegates. 1t was said the
benefits that would come from voca-
tional training have been lost In at
tempting industrial development of the
student. The result has been that semi
skilled workers have been crowded into
the printing industry. The union con-
tends that the normal needs OF the
trade are not taken into consideration
and that apprentices are coming in
faster than they can be cered for.
The report of Secretary Treasurer
Hays shows a regular dues paying
membership of 5O,231 and cash bal
ance in all funds of $1,979, ,463.4s. Nine
ty-eight pensioners were added to the
pension roll since the last report, max
ing total of LAO now receiving the
old age pension of So week.

Ter. less active, rose from 81 So, where

The advance began with the state

government report, which sent prices
up IL cents a few days ago. had not ex-
aggerated crop damage.
Bernard Snow, an expert whose name
has been mentioned in connection with a
possible federal investigation of the
rise in prices, said:
"Today's market is a full answer to
any questions which may have arisen
in the minds of federal officials as to
whether there has been anything arti-
fetal in the actions of the grain mar
ket."
Later December sold at s1.46 rs and
closed at $1.45 IS. September closed
at $1.42. The net advance compared
with yesterdays close was SIS cents

Dyes Brought Over in
Deutschland Received by
New York Purchasers

NEW YORK. Aug. 15.-The first con-
Segment of dyes brought from Ger
many by the submarine freighter
Deutschland has been received by a col
oring company in this city and consti-
tutes the first shipment of the kind
to reach this city from German manu-
facturers since the beginning of the
war. Other dyestuff users here received
bills of lading for some of the Deutsch-
lands cargo, which is estimated to have
included about 200 tons of dyes, valued
in excess of S1,OOO,OOO.
1t is reported that high prices are
demanded for these dyes. but one of the
cOnsignees here said that it was absurd
to believe that fabulous profits will be
realized on their sale. He declared that
the cost Of the dyes in Germany is at
least twice what IL was before the war,
that freight and insurance charges are
three times as great and that the dyes
brought by the Deutschland were not
in the form of paste, composed of 10
and 20 per cent dye and the rest paste,
but are 100 per cent dye.

NAVAL PROGRAM ADOPTED
IS LARGEST IN HISTORY
Department Begins Plans That
Will Make Navy Second
Largest in World

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-Navy Off
GERS virtually had before them today the
task of carrying out the largest pro-
gram for building warsnips ever aGopt-
ed with a single Appropriation by any
nation.
Although technically not completed,
the naval bill. carrying 1915. 100000, had
been approved in it's main provisions
by congress and was in the hands OF
conference committee only to settle
minor differences between the house and
snate on navy yard appropriations.
Anticipating speedy disposition of the
remaining questions, the navy depart
ment already had begun plans for put
building policy and increased personnel
features approved Yesterday bv the
house The senate's building program
was ratified by a vote of 2S3 to 81 and
the personnel increase by viva voce
vote. Senate increases in appropriations
for navy yards were disa greed to and IL
was voted to send the bill back to con-
ference for determination of these points.
Indications today were that the con-
ferees would reach an early agreement
on the questions still in dispute and
that the bill would be laid before Presi-
dent Wilson for his approval in few
days.
Increases written into the bill by the
senate and approved by the house pro-
vide for the construction of 1917 war
vessels within the next three years and
an enlisted strength of 74,700 men.
Navy officials, including Secretary Dan
iels, are greatly pleased with the bill. In
statement yesterday the secretary
characterized it as a model of its kind
He declared also that building authori-
cations were the greatest ever passed in
any country and would place the United
States second among the worlds navies

Farmer-BuSineSS Man Can

The outstanding feature of recent de-
velopments in the guberna torial race
is the unprecedented increase of Hard
man sentiment, which is apparent in
every section of the state. Today he is
far and away the strongest candidate
in the field, and as the people contem
plate his unblemished private life, his
great service to humanity, his eminent
success as a practical farmer ard bust
ness man, and compare his record for
public service with those of the three
lawyer-candidates who oppose him, they
are borne to the irresistible conclusion
that DIR. L. G. Hardman is the man for
the place.
The author of the law furnishing free
treatment for mad-dog bite, which has
saved 10000 lives (by treatment would
cost the patient 5000, and could not
be afforded by the poor; author of
law providing free treatment for diph-
liberia, which has also saved 10000
lives; a prime mover in establishing
the state sanitarium at Alto for free
treatment of consumption victims; a
lifelong prOhibitionist, and author of
the famous Hardman-Covington

legallZed liquor TRAFFIC from Georgia,
author of legislation requiring teaching
of agriculture and civil government in
the public schools; author of bill regu-
lating professional nursing; providing
for registration of births and deaths:

of federal commission to take up guess

gia; author of bill for extending sup-
preston of diseases among live--stocNs
and of much other legislation looking
to prevention and relief. of human suf-
fering and promotion of agricultural
and material interests, Dr. Hartman ad.

to the masses of the people, and they

WASHINGTON. Aug. 15.-Orders for
the remaining modified units of the
national guard TO proceed 10 the border

been made, tut II is known that the
uelicacy cf the railroad strike situation
hiss been the moving consideration
The suspension of the orders to the
troops. which would have moved some
eS.OO0 men 10 the border, should not be
taken as an indication that the presi-

the possibility that some Of the troops
