BckneN is to Report
On European Conditions

on the evening OF May 10 on the sub
ject Of war relief.
Mr.. Bicknell visited all the main war
fronts In Europe in supervising the
distribution Of American contributions
for the war sufferers. He was in Bel
GUM few months after the opening
of hostilities and later passed through
both the Russian and German lines on
the east front in an effort to provide
relief for the Polish war victims. On
several occasions he came close to the
firing lines and was able to observe
conditions in regions where the con-
tending armies had recently passed.
The conference will bring together
leaders in other branches of charitable
and correctional work. The United
States government will furnish its
share. Among the federal officials
taking part will be Miss Julia G. Lath-
rop, chief Of the federal children's
bureau; Anthony Caminetti, United
States commissioner Of immigration,
and Philander P. Claxton, United
States commissioner Of education.
A number Of other speakers Of ma
tional prominence in their fields will
be Thomas Mott Osborne, former war
den of Sing Sing prison. New York,
widely known as lecturer on prison
discipline; Arthur Woods. police COM
missioner OF New York; John Finley,
New York commissioner Of education;
Mrs. Florence Kelley, general secre-
tary of the National Consumers Lea
que, and John p. Gavit, managing edi-
tor Of the New York Evening Post.

conditions preserves the social advan-
tage Of an adequate incentive to in.
vent and devise new products.
3. Price maintenance under these
conditions serves to prevent monopo-
listic control Of production processes
by powerful distributors.
4. Price maintenance under these
conditions preserves the social advan.
tages of such distribution conven-
fences as are represented by neighbor-
hood stores and by small. but sklllful
merchants. In some trades, Il is the
sole guarantee Of the preservation
of the accepted system Of distribution.
For instance. II assures the preserva-
ton OF book stores as individual en-
terprises. II the social vaiue Of such
factors as these Is less than their
economic cost they are not worth pre-
serving. But who Is ready at this
time to encourage their humiliation?
It is noteworthy that the agitation
in favor of restoring to producers the
with the small, independent retailers
and that most Of the opposition to II
comes from the large and powerful
retail concerns.
s. The right of the producer to set
resale prices is an accepted principle
Of business law. It has been restrict
ed recently in this country by close
decisions OF the supreme court, none
OF which was decided on the basis
of the general principle alone. We
believe that In the long run the pub
lie interest will be best served by
legislation specifically permitting this
method Of doing business in identl-
fed articles made and sold under
competitive conditions.
Proposed Federal Trade Provisions.
Signing the supplementary report
were Mr.. Rogers and Professor Cher
ington. 1t proposes to insert in sec
ton Of the federal trade commits
sion act in statutory language, pro-
visions which will have the following
effect:
In regard to products that are iden-
titled in their sale to the public by
name, brand. or trade mark-and
that are made and sold under COM
petitive conditions: No merchant,
firm, or corporation shall offer such
articles for sale at a price other than
that stipulated by the producer for
the original sale Of articles at retail
provided the producer has given due
notice Of such price to the retailer by
mark upon the article or otherwise),
with the purpose or effect OF (a)
Making 1t improbable for other re-
tailers to handle said articles; (b)
Promoting the sale of substitute or
imitation: (c) Attracting trade away
from competitors, where the result is
to injure the regulations of said ar
ticles or the good will Of their pro-
ducers or materially to impair the
general distribution Of said articles.
While the work of the committee
The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1916-04-03

has been confined in its instructions
to identified merchandise, 1t believes
that the principle involved In this
recommendation Is capable OF extern
sion to much wider field and that
the predatory cutting Of price on mer-
chandise in general has been and Is a
favorite method Of oppression on the
part Of unfair BUSINESS to destroy
small competitors and local produc-
ers and that legislation could very
properly define such practices as an
unfair method of competition.
Minority Opposes Federal Legislation
With the formal report which
makes its adverse recommendation in
space OF four lines, the minority
filed an explanator statement. They
take the ground that the recommen.
dalton Of the majority is directly con-
trary to the conclusions of the feder-
al and state courts on matters of
principle, that the right to OK resale
prices supposed to exist for short
time was never understood to exist
except as an incident to patents, and

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April a.
Business men OF the country
through the chamber OF commerce of
the United States, which now has rep
resentatives in every state in the un-

world where American commercial in

or against the recommendations that:
First. There should be federal leg
islation permitting the maintenance
OF resale prices, under proper restric-
lions. on identified merchandise for
voluntary purchase, made and sold
under competitive conditions.
Second. Federal legislation should
take the form of an amendment to
the trade commission act defining the
conditions under which price cutting
is an unfair method Of competition
and authorizing the federal trade
commission to prevent such price cut

It is pointed out that a vote in
the affirmative on the first question
Will support the recommendation OF
majority Of a special committee OF
the national chamber that there
should be federal legislation permit

A vote in the negative on the first
question will support the opposite
contention of the majority OF the
committee that there should be. nc
such legislation. A vote in the af.
frmative on the second question will
indicate an opinion that there should
be federal legislation and further.
more that it should take the form
stated.

that antitrust provisions in the con.
stitutions and laws of twenty-nine
states indicate a policy expressly in
consistent with the idea Ut mainte-
nance Of resale prices The minority
dwell upon the importance Of trade
being "unhampered and unshackled
by the requirements or commands
OF men, or combinations Of men, or
any systems whatsoever" recalling
the well-known principle Of the COM
mon law that there could be no valid
restrictions governing the transfer OF
articles Of trade from hand to hand.
Finally, they take the stand that leg
tslation legalizing price maintenance
will give rise to a situation such that
1t will become difficult for men who
seek to enter manufacturing and
small merchants to establish them
selves.
Inasmuch as forty-fve days arc al
lowed for the voting, the result OF
the referendum will be determined in
the third week of Nav.

Just as coal when 1t burns, leaves
behind a certain amount OF incom.
bustible material in the form OF
ashes, so the food and drink taken
day after day leaves in the alimen-
tary canal certain amount Of indi.
gestible material, which II not coin.
pletely eliminated from the system
each day, becomes food for the mil
lions OF bacteria which infest tie

Men and women who can't get feel
ing right must begin to take inside
baths. Before eating breakfast
each morning drink a glass of real
hot water with a teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in 1t to wash out of
the thirty feet of bowels the previous

toxins and to keep the entire alimen-

Those who are subject to sick

gin practicing internal sanitation.
This will cost very little, but Is suf-
ficient to make anyone an enthusiast
on the subject.
Remember inside bathing Is more
important than outside bathing, be-
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities into the blood, causing
poor health, while the bowel pores
do. Just as soap and hot water

skin, so hot water and limestone
