COST OF FOOD IS
LEADING ISSUE
President May Tackle Problem
in Special Address.
MIDOLEMEN GET BIG PROFITS
Living Expense Problem overshadows
All Others on the Opening Day
of Congress.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The high cost
of living and what steps the federal
government can take to control it
overshadowed all other issues in the
first days proceedings of congress.
The possibility that President Will
son will deal with the subject in a
special address grew stronger.
Eleven bills and resolutions seek
ing to check the soaring prices of food
by stopping shipments to Europe, re-
ducing parcel post rates on foodstuffs
or controlling cold storage were in
troduced in the house.
President Samuel Gompers and a
committee of the American Fedora
ton of Labor called on President Will
cial committee to investigate the food
question
Reports being gathered by the de-
partments of agriculture and COM
merce are being laid before the presi-
dent as fast as they are compiled, and
upOu luSu lie 10 SApSClCu W uSCluC LIS
course of action.
RedfieId BIames Middlemen.
One report submitted by Secretary
Redfield and held confidential as yet,
is understood to show wide margin
between prices paid to producers and
those paid by consumers. In a recent
address the president virtually charg-
ed the middlemen with responsibility
for the high cost of living.
The bills in congress are expected
to produce a general discussion of the
subject but none of the administration
leaders believe any of the embargo
measures can pass.
A joint congressional committee to
investigate the whole food situation
was proposed by Representative Lind
bergh of Minnesota. Representative
Steenerson of Minnesota proposed free
admission of seed wheat to help the
Minnesota and North Dakota farmers.
Representative Adamson of Georgia,
chairman of the house interstate and
foreign commerce committees, to
which the embargo bills were referred,
announced during the day that he
would oppose any sort of embargo.

BABY BEEF PRODUCTION
HAS BRIGHT PROSPECTS

With the present unlimited de-
mand for meat products, the raising
of baby beef, even upon Wisconsin's
high priced land, offers opportunity
for profitable and congenial employ
ment,'' says John L. Tormey, secre-
tary of the Wisconsin Shorthorn
Breeders association, who is one Ct
the managers. of the Baby Beef show
held in Madison, Nov. 22-23.
According to Mr.. Tormey, Wiscon-
sin, on account of its nearness to
market, its good climate, its abund--
ance of forage, grain, and good wa
ter, offers excellent opportunities to
the baby beef producer.
When raising baby best, it is
necessary declares Mr.. Tormey, ito
have cattle of good beef type, and
the pure bred sire route is the only
one which safely can be taken. BY
feeding the youngsters we'll from
calfhood, they will be ready to
market at a year and half, and will
carry more meat with less care and
feed, than raw western feeders would
require to produce the same returns. :

 Ultimately. we received credit for this broad interpretation of the situa tion." says former A. A. A President John A. Wilson. and this recognition is made apparent by the fact that the pen used in the signing of the bill now reposes in the A. A. A. headquarters in Washington. We are just plain American citizens and we have sought general good in our insistence that the time had come for the national government to accept q percentage of the multiplying highway burdens.
 Thirty -four states have now out lined in some form q system of main trunk lines, which is now an augury for the success of the federal aid plan just inaugurated. In this connection it is worthy to note that California was the first state to apply for its ap- portionment of the money, and Cali fornia is expending S1S,000,0 900 on two main highways extending from the Oregon to the Mexican line.
 Tt should be kept in mind that an application for federal aid in the inn provement of any road must be made by the highway department of the state. Consequently if anybody in the state desires to have road improved at the aid of federal funds. it is neces- sary that the matter be taken up with the state highway department and not with the federal government, which will have the final say through the secretary of agriculture.'
 One provision of the federal road law is that a state must have a duly constituted highway department through which to deal with the na- tional government

NEW YORK, July Exchanges in the standings of first division clubs in the National and American leag- uers were slight during the past week. The margin of percentage separating the first and fourth clubs remained virtually the same as at the close of the previous week. BrOoklyns lead over Boston in the National was not changed greatly and New Yorks margin in the American was unaf- fected, except that Boston took Clevelands place as runner-up
 The Red SoX made the best gain of the week in the American and the worlds chtmpions now are only q few points behind the Yankees. They were able to set back Detroit in three out of five games, after the Tigers had broken even in the six game series with the Yankees Car rigans men are in good shape phy- sically. while New York is without the services of three outfielders-Mai- sel Gilhooley and High and Baker. one of it's heaviest hitters, on ac- count of injuries. In addition, Dono- vans pitching staff is not in as good shape as that of the Red SOx, Cul- lnD. the Yankees most successful pitcher is on the hospital list.
 Notwithstanding injuries, however, the Yankees made it three out of six rom Detroit and then took three out of four from St. Louis. Cleveland
