War PRICES UP
Austria, Hardest Hit; Meats
Advance 500 Per Cent.
Neutrals Paying Almost as
Much as Belligerents.

Washington, July 13.-War's in
crease Of food prices in Europe as
shown today by the bureau of labor
statistics has touched neutrals almost
as heavily as it has the belligerents
The Teutonic countries have felt the
pinch more than have the allies.
The bureaus statistics give the big
gest food price advance in Austria,
where meats are more than 500 per
cent higher than before the outbreak
of hostilities. Beef that in February,
1914, sold for 6.3 cents a pound, now
brings 1877 cents. Prices in Berlin
show increases ranging from As to
160 per cent.
The British public is paying on an
average 55 per cent more for its food
than it did two years ago. The great
est increase. 152 per cent, has been in
sugar; the lowest, II per sent, in oleo-
margarine. In France prices are 23
per cent above the pre-war average;
in Italy around 80 per cent.
Price increases in the neutral coun-
tries are shown to be high. In Nor
way twenty-nine necessities are sold
at an average of So per cent more than
i'll 1914. Copenhagen workmen pay
"a per cent more for table articles
than two years ago; in Sweden prices
are 21 per cent higher; in Switzer-
land the range is from 8 per cent to

Training School for Recruits Is
Adjutant Generals Plan.
Prepare Guardsmen for Service
on Mexican Border.
FILL RANKS OF TWO REGIMENTS
Effort to Raise Units to Com
plete War Strength.
Alender Smith of Hutchinson
Made Second Lieutenant.

1t is probable the state will imme-
diately turn Fort Riley into train
ing school for newly recruited ma
tional guardsmen. No formal order
has been issued, but Charles 1. Mar
tin, adjutant general, admitted today
that the plan was being considered.
General Martin spent Wednesday n
Fort Riley in conference with army
officers. The plan for a military
training school at Fort Riley has been
carefully considered and it is probable
the plan will be adopted Immediately.
General Martin declined to discuss
the matter today further than to ad-
init that the plan was under consid-
Grafton.
Sent to Border.
With a training school at Fort Riley,
newly recruited guardSmen will be
sent at once to the fort There they
will undergo course of military
training. As soon as this course is
completed the men will be equipped
and sent to the Mexican border to join
the First or Second regiment. The
men enlisted will be placed at the dis
posal of the federal government in
filling ranks of the two Kansas regi-
ments to full war strength.
''The plan to make Fort Riley a mil
itary training school is being consid-
ered,'' said General Martin, but no
orders have been issued. The plan
would mean that newly enlisted men
would be sent to the fort until they
were trained and fully equipped for
service on the border
Governor Capper and General Mar
tin were in conference today concern
ing methods of handling newly enlist
ed guardsmen. Following the con-
ference the governor announced the

The New Plan for Dealing With
the /. w. w.
|AgitatOrs Will Be Arrested on
Charges of Vagrancy.
TO BE PUNISHED BY FINES
Payment Will Be Made by La.
Dor on Highways.
Necessary Machinery Already
Is i'm Existence.

There is sorrow ahead for the 1. w.
w. Members of the organization
commonly known as the Il Won't
Work. crowd-must help build high
ways or not stop when they reach
Kansas Under a decision which Gov
ernor Capper today obtained from the
attorney generals office, I. w w.
members who loiter in this state may
face yagrancy and other charges and
find Jobs on municipal and county
road building gangs.
In an effort to solve the 1. w. W
troubles which have caused much
worry for farmers IN the western sec, Sec
ton of the state, a plan was today
worked out which means real labor for
agitators. The plan is very simple
1t means that members or the lapor
gangs may be arrested Tor disturbing
the peace or for vagrancy. A simple
fine will send these men to jail ana
the court may then order them to
work on the highways until their fines
are paid.
The plan as outlined today will not
mean Jail sentences for the l. w. W..
leaders 1t will mean only fines. When
a man is sentenced TO Jail. there is
difficulty in compelling him to work
out his sentence. But there is no ques-
ton as to the ability of a municipal
courts or justice of the peace's COM
pelling a man to crack rock or Dullu
roads in payment of his fine.
On Vagrancy Charges.
Under the law as interpreted by s.
N. Hawkes., assistant attorney general,
cities may arrest the I. w. w. men
on vagrancy charges. The court may
then impose fines and the men may
be compelled to work on the streets
In the rural districts when the I. w.
W. organizers make a demonstration
against harvesterS or wheat producers,
the men may be arrested for disturb
ing the peace. The same procedure as
in the city applies ana the men may
be sent to work on the county high
ways. When an officer is ir-timidated
or threatened, there is another fine.
All of which means sorrow and dis
tress to the 'I Won't Work crowd.
1t is probable that Governor Capper
will urge the immediate adoption OF
the plan as outlined by the attorney
generals office. The plan is expected
to meet the situation which has re-
Gently faced the people in a number of
western Kansas towns and counties.
Appeals have been sent to the gov
ernor from a number of these towns.
One came today from Mcpherson.
IF these men are made to work,
Kansas will not be such a lure to
them" said the governor. above all
they do not want to work. They are
disturbers and in a number of COM
munities have intinidated people and
destroyed property. As soon as few
hundred of these men can be en-
ployed without pay on rock piles and
in road building, 1 think the 1. w. W.
will look elsewhere for comfort and
the agitators will keep moving

2ND naval POWER Men TO Fl. RILEY
Senator Urges Large ApprOpri-
alton for Marine Defense.
''MOre Value Than All DiplO-
matte Notes Ever Written"

Washington, July 13.-Opening the
fight for the biggest naval appropria-
ton bill the United States has known.
$315, 5,S26,000, Senator Swanson of Vir-
ginia, declared today that only by a
navy second to Great Britain can the
United States maintain the Monroe
doctrine and it's rights in the Far East.
The only alternatives before the ma
ton, he said, were a navy of the
highest efficiency and a 'ttimid and
vascillating'' foreign policy Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts, demanded a
fleet for the Pacific coast as well as
the Atlantic.
"One desperate man with a bomb
could disable the Panama canal for
weeks-plenty long enough for all
military needs" he said. Let US pass
this bill at once. 1t is big because it
must make up for the stinted appro-
priations of the past five or six years.
One bill of this kind is of more value
to permanent peace than all the dipIo-
matte notes and pacts ever written

Des Moines, Ia, July 13.-To ex-
pre- SIS in fitting terms their contempt
for underclothing issued them by the
federal government, 800 soldiers at
Camp Dodge late last night held a b
V. D. parade uniformed only in under

The men were ordered back to their
tents and an investigation is under

PARALYSIS IN STATE?
Two Cases Undetermined, Reported
From Grant County.

Two probable cases of infantile
paralysis were today reported to the
state board of health from Ingalls,,
Grant county. An immediate investi-
cation will be made by the state
board. If the victims prove to be suf-
fering from the disease, it is probable
they will be taken Immediately to the
state medical hospital at Rosedale.
Immediately following the receipt
of MESA ges from Grant county today,
DR.. S. J. Crumbine, secretary of the
state board of health, sent DR.. A. L.
Skoog of the medical school to Ingalls,.
If the analysis of Doctor Skoog show
the children are actually suffering
from infantile paralysis, it is probable
the victims will be taken tc Roseda1e
state medical hospital. Reports from
Grant county, however, are so meager
that doubt remains in the minds of
board of health officers as tc the ex-
act nature of the disease.
There has been but one report of
actual infantile paralysis in Kansas
this month. This report came from

Baltimore, Md, July 13.-Shattering
of the British starvation blockade will

Hilken gave the following statement
of his plans today:
Captain Simon Lake, undoubtedly
the pioneer in the design of successful
submarines, and p. G. Hilken, Ameri-
can manager of the Ocean Rhederei,
Bremen, are considering the advisa-
bility of forming a company to oper-
ate, under the American flag, a service
similar to that begun by the Ocean
Rhederei with its submersible freight
er Deutschland. The success of the
trip of the Deutschland and the huge
profits which are already assured-the
cost of that vessel being practically
paid by her first voyage@lead those
who are planning the new venture to
expect 1t to prove successful fl

Times Big as Deutschland
The vessels will have a tonnage of
5000 and will be five times as large
as Deutschland" Mr.. Hilken today
declared. ''They will be used entirely
for commercial purposes"

Copenhagen, July 13.-German
newspapers assert that eighty sub
marines of the Deutschland class are
now being built and that twenty will
