on Plaut Justice Cropsey said
You committed a crime that shocks
the public conscience. And when II is
known that IL has been a more or less
continuous practice for some time. as
investigation shows II has been, the need
OF decisive action Is imperative.
AT the trial you told an unbelievable
story and the Jury necessarily rejected
IL. I am not able. therefore. 20 give
you the benent Of a frank and honest
confession. Even II you had remained
mute and required the State to establish
your guilt. some benefit would have been
yours, but YOU made your crime worse
by swearing TO an untruthful story"

JOKER SEEN IN SIGN LAW.
Amendment said TO Permit TN
limited Height on Roofs.

Several civic and trade organizations
discovered what they believe TO be
a joker In the amendment TO the ordi-
nance on signs which was introduced at
the meeting of the Board Of Aldermen
on September 26 by Alderman John T.
Eagan IN referred TO the Committee on
Buildings, where II !s still undergoing
consideration, Under this measure ad-
vertising signs may reach any height, 1t
Is asserted,
Section 2l3 limits the height OF roof
signs with n tight. closed or solid sur
face to 81 feet above the roof level. and
roof structures without. such surfaces TO
rs feet on freproof build ngs, and so
feet on non-freproof buildings. All roof
signs must be set back AT least six feet
from the face Of the front and rear walls.
1t If asserted by opponents Of the new
measure that the latter provision is abol-
ished. and that under the proposed
amendments signs could be erected to
any height consistent with the building
zone resolution adopted by the Board Of
Estimate In July last.
Among the organizations sad to be
opposed to the amendment are the Fifth
Avenue Association. the Forty-second
Street Association and the Municipal
Art Society.

LAY FOOD COST TO
WEATHER AND WAR
Chicago Experts Say Nearly
All Farm Products Are
Short This Season.

CHICAGO, Ill. Oct. IA OF
United States was made In Chicago to-
day In an effort to explain why it costs
so much more thar a yea o to eat.
The fundamental reason seems to Be
the perversity OF the weather during the
year. Next is the war. The high price Of
butter Is almost without exception
ascribed TO export. but h prevailing
high prices of cattle feed contributes .
little to II. but that high price. too. 10 due
In some measure to the war. The hot
weather Of last summer 10 blamed for the
falling of in the egg and poultry sup
ply. Chickens have not regained their
health. according 10 South Water Street
experts, and probably they will not for
months.
Thu weather also has suppressed thu
volume OF production OF potatoes, onion
and cabbages. However. there still II
hope OF a larger supply Of the latter food
because that crop has been very late anc
should be given three weeks more q
mature.
A leading onicial Of Armour 4 Co. sait
\ the European war was the main caus'
OF high food prices.
"Grsin Is being exported in Grea
quantity" ne said. There has been
! crop failure in wheat and corr n tn
canned goods Of the year are short. Thu
farmer IL becoming more Independent
He will not let go Of his wheat and ONE
products any more unless his price 4
paid. The cost OF doing business has In
creased. Paper bags have increased II
price and other things in proportion"
