COST Of LIVING PROBE
IS DECLARED ABSURD

The Keating-Kenyon joint resolu-
tion providing for an investigation
into the cost of living of wage-earners
in the District of Columbia, which has
passed the House, was discussed in the
Senate last evening. but finally went
over on objection of Senator Stone OF
Missouri. who declared that such legis-
lation was absurd"
1t was the resolution in the form that
passed the House which was before the
Senate and two amendments offered
by Senator Kenyon to make it conform
to the resolution which has been re-
ported TO the Senate by the committee
on education and labor were adopted
before the resolution went over.
Cites Need Of Inquiry.
Senator Kenyon explained the need
of the proposed investigation into the
cost of living in the Distict and said
that undoubtedly the investigation
would be followed by an attempt to
enact a minimum wage law for the
District.
Senator Gallinger of New Hampshire,
while declaring that he thought not
much good would come of the investl-
cation, and that the $4,000 PROVIDED
for it by the resolution would be use
lessly expended. said that he would not
oppose the passage of the resolution
since many of the senators felt differ
emily about il.
Senator Stone insisted that it would
be impossible, through such an inVes-
tigation. to arrive at any definite con-
clusions as to what IL costs to llNe IN
the District.
1T costs one man one amount and II
costs another man another amount,
said Senator Stone, depending upon
what he wants, what he pays for and
what he is able to buy. 1t seems to
me that ii would be utter folly to un-
uertake to say what it costs to live in

VILLAS PRESTIGE
IS GONE AND So

Pershing Thinks Outlaw Is

Mexican Affairs Follow

Washington, August 23-In telegram
to the war department today General
Pershing reported that Francisco Villa,
when last heard from. was making his
following and that the opinion was gen.
eral that his prestige was gone and that
he never again could become a serious
factor in Mexican affairs. General PERISH
ing said that until recently Villa had
been secluded in the mountains of south
ern Chihuahua, where he was driven last
April by the American troops.
Army officers here were inclined to be-
lieve the report of Villas loss of prestige
as most important and likely to have a
bearing on the question of withdrawal
of American forces in Mexico
Chihuahua City, Mexico, August 49,
Conflicting reports as to Villa were re-
dispatch said that the bandit chieftain.
travelling incognto, is in hiding with a
few of his men in the hills near Naica,
Durango. Another said that reports are
current along the chihuahua -Durango
border that Villa was poisoned early in
July by nurses who had been attending
him. Little credit was given the latter
report here, although General Trevino
pointed out that if Villa is dead his
name probably is being used by his ad-
herents to inspire terror among ranch
men of the neighborhood.
