rigid and full investigation by congress
of the holding of foodstuffs and coal
for the purpose of raising prices
above the normal rate" was urged in
a resolution adopted today by the con-
vention of the American Federation of
Labor. 1t also asked for the appoint
ment of a federal commission which
should include among its members
representatives of organized labor, to
investigate the whole question of the
high cost of living.
The necessity of placing an embargo,
as far as our international trade
agreements will permit, on the export
of wheat and other foodstuffs also was
urged upon President Wilson and con-
gress by the resolution.
The department of justice was urged
in an adopted resolution imme diately
to institute Investigations, thru fed
eral grand juries, in the large cities,
to obtain evidence of alleged illegal
conspiracies to compel the payment of
extortionate prices for paper used in
the printing industry.

of the German armies today. The
tremendous territory, as large as that
of Belgium, has been overrun within

The Rumanians are on the defen-

leaving guns, ammunition and other
baggage behind, according to reports
received here.
Russians Can't Aid.
General Won Falkenhayn's right
flank is driving past Craiova toward
the Alt valley with its valuable rail-
way. The next goal of the Germans is
Wallachia.
The capture of the vast territory al
ready taken by the German armies is
the vast food supplies found there, the
Germans no longer have to haul their
supplies over more than a hundred
miles of mountainous roads.

line. Not ever the promised Russian

any massage cream, and better than any
rouge, for accomplishing the results for
which such articles are used AS the wax

To see the tinge of healthy bloom in
your face, to see your skin get clearer
and clearer, to wake up without a
headache, backache, coated tongue or

week.

A quarter pound of limestone phos-

that just as soap and hot water
cleanses, sweetens and freshens the
