u. 5. PROTEST
ON BLACKLIST
American Firms Cazetted in
England Bryan Treaty
Prevents Reprisal.

Vigorous protest will be made by this
government against the British blacklist,
affecting individuals and firms in the
United States, but no remedial results
are anticipated. The Bryan peace treaty
with Great Britain, foszered by President
Wilson. ties the hands of the administra-
tion so far as effective reprisals are con-
cerned, and the British governments ac-
ton is recognized here to be in eonfor-
nifty with continental rules of interna-
uonal law.
The British government maintains Its
stand, taken in its last communication
to the United States, that the trading
with the enemy act is purely domestic
legislation. II claims the right to pre-
vent IS own subjects in its own territory
frssn trading with the enemy by any di-
rect or indirect means. If American firms
or individuals carrying on trade with
Germany, suffer as a consequence, the
British government takes the view that
n cannot nevertheless permit its subjects
o deal with these firms. Trading with
hese firms or individuals is regarded as
rading indirectly with the enemy.
Officials admit that reprisaI or threat
ened reprisaI would be the only logical
effective means which might bring pro-
lection to the American interests con-
cerned. But Secretary Of State Lansing
has decided that the Bryan peace treaty
apparently does not permit such meas
ures until the elapse OF one year from
the time when the two governments en-
ter into arbitration parleys for the set
tlement Of any matter OF dispute.

SOUTHERNERS OPPOSE
CHILD LABOR BILL

Opposition Of Southern Senators
threatens to delay the consideration of
the child labor legislation, desired by
President Wilson. but not included in the
steering committee program that calls
for the adjournment of the present ses-
sion by August 10.
Senate leaders said yesterday that the
Presidents wishes would prevail and a
child labor bill will be passed despite
the opposition OF Senators and House
members below the Mason and Dixon
line. Northern members are almost
unanimously in favor of such a law and
this insures enough Republican support
to bring about the passage of the bill.

WIVES

A wife is an ex girl who has
realized her greatest ambition =
the capture of a man, and who
has settled down to show him
that woman's clubs, pink teas,
and gowns are absolute necessi-
ties while three square meals a
day are anything else than that.
When a wife takes a man to
raise he soon learns that she is
his master. She doesn't tell
him so; he just mysteriously alb,
serbs that information and the
older he grows the more estab-
lished the fact roots itself in his
mind. Almost any man is
brave enough to go to war; he
will fight a man twice his size,
but a mere look from his wife
will wilt him like a lettuce Leaf
on a hot stove. No one knows
why.
Wives are peculiar animals in
a way that those belonging to
other men always look better tc
a man than his own, and, while
a man feels that it is a terrible
task to support one, he would
have Il dozen if it we're not 70,

there are also modern hotels.

while scattered about on the

small man with a fair appetite
to eat up a. whole North Dakota

tel, especially if he washes it
down literally.
The legislatures of some states
are regulating the length of the
sheets used by hotels. This
gives rise to the hope that the
clerk may be regulated a little
in due, time, though no one has
had the nerve to tackle the jot

HOTELS

A hotel is a place where hos
pitality is dispensed with at me-
ter rates. There are in the
United States over 100000 no
tells, some of which are good.
Hotels vary greatly in size and
severity. In New York and
Chicago one may find hotels con.
tanning 1900 rooms apiece, in
some of which rooms an awk-
ward guest could not turn
around without knocking over
81, 100 worth of brio a blac. In
Arkansas, on the other hand.
there are hotels in which a guest
has to pay extra if he doesn't
want to sleep with the family
and which use the Mississippi
river for a bath tub.
An ordinary hotel consists of
a desk, with a register on it, a
collection of rooms furnished
luXuriously with windows, doors
and beds with sheets on them.
a dining room gorgeous]y decor

deurs and a writing room with a

of these hotels change cooks

BREAD PRICES GROW;
SIZE OF LOAF SHR|NKS
Increased Is Per Cent to
September Is, and Are
Still Climbing

Washington, Oct. l3.-Bread prices
increased eleven per cent between MAY
10 and September l5-and prices snce
then have been climbing steadily, the
bureau of labor reported today. The
bureau found also that the size of the
loaf has been shrinking.
Wheat prices rose during the period,
wholesale flour prices 81 per cent and
retail flour prices % per cent.
Forty five big American cities are
represented in the bureaus report.
Bakers are resorting to many changes
TO meet the increased cost Many have
discontinued certain brands of bread.
Others have eliminated the return priv.
ilege on stale bread or ceased selling
wholesale-eliminating the middle man.
On August -, in the cities tabulated,
there were 207 brands of five cent
loaVes; three brands of six cent loaves
and no ten cent loaves.
On September l5, there were 1877
brands of five cent loaves; II brands
of six cent loaves and six brands of
ten cent loaves.
These figures are representative, it
is understood of prices all over the
country. There was no indication any
where of reduction or even of stability
in prices-the tendency has been with
out exception sharply upward.

Editor Capital Journal
have canvassed pretty carefully
the sentiment of many of the mothers
and housewives in our city and find
an urgent desire among them for pub
lie market.
They fully realize that a long per
iod of unemployment is before many
of the men and that the money earned
during the summer months will soon be
absorbed by the advancing prices of
all articles of food and clothing.
Farmers tell me they have an abund-
ance Of apples, vegetables, canned
goods and meat animals which they
are unable to dispose of locally at a
price that would pay for the handling
the established channels of trade; these
farmers frankly say that to carefully
pack, crate, label and otherwise fuss
with these products as demanded by
the high class trade would result in
loss to them because of the increased
labor and other expenses, and rather
than =" fool with them they will let
them 90 to waste.
Now, we mothers are not all able to
pay fancy prices for fancy packed ap-
pies and vegetables. Nor are we so par
ticular about uniform color, size and
freedom from blemishes. These all peel
off and are waste. We want the most
for what our limited means will buy
and our health authorities can be as
sured that we will carefully guard a
gainst the purchase of any decayed
fruit vegetables or other commodities.
1t will be the duty of the market mas
ter to assist us in maintaining a sani-
tarv market place where wholesome
food only is Offered for sale.
Now. we trust there is enough init
ative among the men in the town TO
come to the rescueeOf the many families
VINO will surely become objects of char
ty before the winter is half gone un-
less opportunity is given them to con
serve their present fund of cash by Civ
ing them the chance to buy many Of
their table necessities at farmers mar
ket. The chivalrous men in Eugene,
Corvallis, MedfOrd, Portland and other
valley towns have done as much for
their wives and children.
Let us quit for time talking about
"bundle day. charity entertainments,
Salvation Army relief work, jitney
dances and establish an up to date pub
lie market. When the latter will have
been placed in running order, much of
the former sentimental work will be-
come unnecessary.
If we do this we will not only enable
many of our good people to maintain
their self respect, but we will also
change Il good many "knockers >" into
boosters and, at the same time, give
the mail order business a severe jolt.
Yours for an up to date Salem
