FOOD INQUIRY
 IS WIDESPREAD

CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE. foreign commerce committee of which Representative Adamson, who is op- posed to embargoes, is the chairman.
 Department of justice officials heid |all day conferences with members of the iederai trade commission and Dis trict Attorney Anderson of Boston in charge of the departments inyestiga-
 ton, who is here to formulate a defi- nite plan of conducting the nation wide inquiry
 About fifty picked investigators of the department bureau of investi- gaton we're reported to be at work throughout the country gathering data which will determine the Attor- ney Generals course of action,
 The interstate commission probably will be called upon to aid by furnish ing data relative to shipments of foodstuffs Grand jury investigations at New York or Chicago or both, of the reasons for the rising prices are said to be under consideration. Witt the program still in process of forma- ton from three angles, namely:
 1--DetermiIati0n of the actual cause of the rapid rise in foodstufls and coal, whether it was due to natur- al economic laws. to the unwarranted action of individual dealers or produc- CTS to boost prices.
 2-Vigorous prosecution of persons or firms, if any who by violation of existing laws in making agreements to raise prices or otherwise have con t1'ibuted to the upward trend of prices
 Enactment of legislation to rem edy the present situation and to pre- vent it's recurrance
 The situation is in the first of the stages so far as the department Of justice is concerned. Department off cials are understood to be considering tIhe adyisability of investigating such organizations as the Chicago Board of Trade, the Chicago butter and eggs exchange the Elgin B-ard of Trade and the New York produce and coffee exchange. An inquiry into the amount of foodstuffs held in all the cold storage establishments of the coun- try and possibly as to the volume of grain stored in elevators also is said to be under consideration.
 Complaints have reached the de- partment that coal prices were advanc ing recently, because in large meas ure, of the activities of certain inde- pendent dealers not heretofore ia the business, who are reported to have contracted with the chief coal com panies for virtually their entire ul- sold output for the winter. It was charged that these dealers, scentins fat profits had tried to corner the available supply and thus forced 1p prices.

Now the question arises is whether or not some of the schools are hold ing out" There seemed to be tne happy impression cbat the youngsters taking their cue from political stunts their elders are alleged to have re- sorted to on sundry occasions, are nolding up the big flood gt ballots ua- til the last minute Whether CT not jhi is true remains to be seen, but one thing is certain that is that the race between the Jones and the Rambe street schools is some close"
 This contest will end Saturday night No votes will he allowed that are not cast before o'clock that night. Should ballots be turned in at 6:05 o'clock there will be nothing doilS. All votes, the judges state, must he in by uhe time the 6oclock whistle blows and bells ring Saturday evening

OUR CHAUTAUQUA.

Taking it altogether the Grays Harbor Chau-
tauqua this year was tremendous The pro-
grams from day to day were a genuine surprise and
of unusual excellence.
There were several individual programs well
worth the price of the ticket and it is safe to
say that no Western Chautauqua ever supplied
With better talent than ours.
1t would be public calamity should the Grays
Harbor Chautauqua be abandoned it is the bright
clean intellectual uplifting event in these two cities

an absolute yearly permanent feature.

one thing sure, the business interests here have got

in systematic and thorough manner or this section
will always be in trouble and turmoil Labor should

proper sphere that of wages, hours and labor
ditions; but they must not endeavor to dominate a
mans business and try to force conditions on him
that mean ruin. Invested capital and brains have
as much right to recognition manual labor. The
Herald stands firmly for the laboring when he
is in the right but not when he demands the power
to tell his employer how to run his business. Labor
will win by going Slow thoughtfuly and wisely
than by following loud mouthed agitators and demand

He was single. He placed the photo on his library
table In week he had fallen in love with the picture
of the beautiful girl. So he wrote to her.
A week passed, during which the bachelor was

terrific blow in the shape of letter:

Upon investigating this strange case the broken

GRIM RELICS.

LONDON, April 9. - Packed away in the pigeon holes of the record off, flee of the territorial regiments in London buildings are thousands of lit tie brown parcels and canvas bags, which have a pathetic interest for the relatives of soldiers who have died in action. There are letters too, many hundreds of them - the last line, perhaps, to parents, relatives or friends written just before the bat tie. Grim relics of the fight, the can vas bags contain all that the soldier left in the way of effects A wrist watch, a shaving brush, a pipe or a photograph -- these are but a few of the mementoes.

It exceeds the total for January by $83.- 100000. The decline in January had been taken in some quarters to mean that the record figure for December had marked the high tide in the flow of American exports. The total ex- ports for the first eight months of the fiscal year 1916 are $2.586. .301, ,57O, and it now seems probable that the ex- ports for the whole fiscal year will reach s4.OOO, 1000 ,0OO.

NEED THE DOCTORS.

VIENNA, April %. - Thousands of university students who are serving at the front, have just learned that the Austrian ministry of education has decided to grant them special privi- leges in the way of shortening their college course In the faculties of philosophy and law the men will be allowed to count their time at the front as a university year. But as for the medical students. the authorities say the responsibilities of doctors to the community are too serious to be lightly dealt with. and so these stu dents cannot be credited with time like their fellows in other departments.

MAKES AN IMPORTANT
 DISCOVERY

PARIS, April 22. - Charles Vail lant, head of the photographic labora- tory of the Lariboisiere Hospital in Paris, has announced successful means of replacing the present costly process of X-ray photographing on a glass negative with printing directly on to paper.
 Vaillant's new process uses ordinary sensitized paper for taking radium photographs. The cost of the paper is only twentieth of that of the glass negative, and there Is also saving in weight and space.
 Valiant has only three fingers left out of ten, namely two forefingers and thumb, the forefinger of the left hand and the thumb and forefinger of the right The rest of his fingers he lost. one after the other. by hold | ing them at the end of a tube thus trying on himself the penetrative ef- fects of the radium rays. Repeated amputation, however, did not lessen Vaillant's enthusiasm. He is already the discoverer of a photographic meth cd of determining whether or not an infant was born dead or alive.
 The infant born dead comes out on the negative completely dark, where as it's having uttered cry, or lived an instant an hour, or ten hours, is proved by the development on the plate, first of the stomach and then of the lungs The practical legal result is that infanticide can now be detected without recourse to an autopsy.
 For the moment Naillant's mind is concentrated on getting the most out of radiography for the benefit of the wounded in war. "I want" he says, ito extract all the secrets l can from science. so as to help the surgeon to operate with greater certainty and save as many heroes as possible. My little personal war is with science. and mean to make her pay me for my amputations."

TWO MORE CRUISERS.

TOKYO, April 22. - Naval men are especially interested in the two light cruisers authorized by the last Diet. which will soon be laid down in Jap anese ship yards. They think that the war in Europe, and more particularly the battle of Heligoland, have demon strated the superior qualities of this type of light and speedy scout ship, which made it's strength felt in the successful engagement with the Ger man squadron The Japanese ships will be constructed along the same lines as the British Arethusa, although the definite details-are kept secret.
