SOME HIGH PRICES . DUE ID UNLAWFUL
 ACTS IS CHARGED

New York, December 29.-After a con- ference here today of federal district at- torneys from Maine to West Virginia. who are Investigating the high cost of living. a statement was issued by George w. Anderson, United States district attor- ney at Boston, in charge of the govern ment's inquiry into food and fuel prices, declaring that business men who hold or detain cars unnecessarily and unfairly are under just suspicion"
 "If it be found" the statement said.
 that such detention is a part of com bination to create scarcity, enhance prices and share in profits, we do not believe that juries will look with lenient eyes on such action during these times.
 We have spent a long day of hard work on this task. It is but to repeat to say that there is evidence that some of the peak high prices in various parts of the country-I do not now indicate where are due to unlawful acts.
 ''The conference has approved of the method already under way in New Eng land of systematic cooperation with the railroads to ascertain who are responsible fct the unnecessary detention of cars. either by abuse of reconsigners or pro- ducers. or by failure to unload within a reasonable time after delivery at destina- tion

SPAIN PROTESTS
 ID GERMANY IN
 STRONG LANGUAGE

Madrid. December 2S.-(Via Paris.) The note addressed to Germany on the submarine question by the Spanish government reviews at length the pol icy of Madrid from the time the first Spanish ship. the lsidoro, was tor pedoed in August, 1915. It declares that the Spanish government has al ways maintained that 1t was illegal to destroy prizes, as is the constant practice of submarines. and that the cabinet also demanded the observation of the declaration of London notably article 50. which. it is maintained, sub marines violate by abandoning the crews of sunken ships to the mercy of the wsves. far from land.
 The note further recalls the vigor of the representations of the Spanish government which, it says, sometimes caused the Berlin government to be surprised at the radical attitude of Spain. whose protests. it is held, have been more energetic than those of any other neutral state. even the United States of America With respect to the contraband question the note says:
 What the Spanish government does not admit is the central empires in- depreciation of International law. whereby they destroy ships of na- tions which have always complained and protested against such an interpre- tation"

BIRMINGHAM MAN
 MAY BE DIRECTOR
 FARM LOAN BANK
H. B. Urquhart Said to Be Favorably Considered for One of Five Places
 in District
By HUGH w. ROBERTS

Washington, December 29.-(SpeciaD Practically innumerable are the job hunters clamoring at the door of the farm loan board The fate of all of them. including the 100 applicants from Alabama, will not be made known be- fore the middle of next week Informa- ton to this effect was acquired at the treasury department today.
 In each district five directors. one registrar. one or more appraisers and as many examiners as necessary will be appointed for these positions.
 The number of applicants from Ala bama will approximate 100. Inasmuch as there are only three states in the ditrict which includes Alabama, 1t is practically certain that one of the five directors will be an Alabamian. It was learned this afternoon that for the post mingham is being favorably consid- cred He has the indorsement of Sen ator Underwood.
 There is criticism of the board in dulged in today because New Orleans rather than Jackson, Miss. was made the bank city of the fifth district. Jackson. on account of it's more cen- tral location. would have been more satisfactory to Alabamians in Con- gross. The lattier cite the fact that New Orleans is no more central than Birmingham or Mont tgomery and de- served no better treatment.

NO Comment Is Made by
 Washington GoDernment
 on Scandinavian Notes

Washington December 29-The three Scandinavian nations, Norway, Sweden and Denmark through identic notes,, the Norwegian copy of which was handed ister Bryn, have expressed their lively interest in President Wilson's proposals looking toward the establishment of a durable peace'' and their deepest sym pathy'' with all efforts to shorten the war
 Unlike the Swiss government, which has offered to help in any way mo matter how modest" the Scandinavian countries make no offer of cooperation. This fact attracted particular interest because Nor way, particularly, has been one of the greatest sufferers from the war among the neutrals.
 WILSON AND LANSING SILENT
 The state department made public the Norwegian note without comment and in line with the policy adopted by President Wilson and Secretary Lansing, no other official information concerning peace moves was forthcoming during the day.
 Most of the South American nations, it was indicated today in diplomatic quarters, will not send communications regarding the Presidents note on the official understanding that it was ad- dressed to them largely for their own information and not to solicit action. Hol-
 
 land whose attitude has been the sub ject of much speculation, also was said to be unlikely to take any action, ow- ing to the feeling there that it might appear unneutral to one side or the other and initiate against the location of the eventual peace conference in that coun- try. Beyond the fact that the Spanish cabinet has not yet decided on Spain's action, no further information had come to the Spanish embassy today.

News From Berlin Indicates Renewed Activity in MoIdavia and Ru- mania-Petrograd Also Gives
 Account of Battles

West of the Mouse. in the yerdun region, the forces of the German crown prince have repulsed attacks by French troops against the new Ger man positions Le Mort Homme, where second and third line trenches were entered by the Germans and 220 prisoners and seven machine guns were taken. Paris admits slight success for the Germans in this sector, say ing that one trench south of Le Mort Homme was entered by the attackers. Mouse and Avocourt and in front of both Le Mort Homme and Hill BOA
 were repulsed by the French. Except for some engagements between patrols around Brody in Galcia, no ac- tivity is reported from the eastern Mace donian and Austro-Italian fronts. Brit ish and French troops have carried out successful raids on the west front at various points.
 ACTIVITY IN MOLDAYIA
 Pressing in upon southern Moldayia from three sides, apparently with all their vigor. the forces of the central powers are making progress against stiff
 resistance On the Transylvanian- Mol davian frontier, in the region north of
 Rimnik- -sarat and in the Dobrudja, oppo- site Braila, Berlin reports, the Austro- German and Bulgarian troops are ad- vancing
 A new thrust seemingly has been start ed by the Austro-Germans along the
 Moldavian frontier, thus adding to the difficulties of the Russians and Ru-
 manians, already hard pressed from the south and east. Several lines of new positions and 140O prisoners were taken by the invaders in the first day of then l ofTeA-sive i4ito Moldavia from tic west.~ which may have for it's purpose the cutting off of the retreat of the Russo
 Rumanian troops now operating along
 the southern Moldavian border. RUMANIANS DRIVEN BACK
 Along the River Kasino and west of
 Covesha, Petrograd says, Rumanian
 troops were driven back nearly mile.
 A desperate battle also is reported as ldhllS PlaSS iiSoi s,SSHieAO5 icdf OCdud, and within the Moldavian boundary. North of Rimnlk-Sarat, all attacks were repulsed according to Petrograd Field Marshal Won Mackensen has reached Dumitresti, about 12 miles north west of Rimnik-Sarat, and norteast of that town troops under his command have captured several villages. The number of prisoners taken by this army totals 400 in addition to cannon and machine guns.

exchange should be speedily passed, and should even be made more drastic.
 This short session should find way to protect the American people against such crimes as the one just perpetrated by Wall street. if Mir. Lawson is any where near the truth
 Thomas W. Lawson's hand has been called by Chairman Henry of the House committee on rules.
 The noted Boston financier, of author- ship fame, is quoted to have boasted to the chairman on rules and Representa- tive Wood. who introduced a resolution to investigate charges of a leak in the news on President Wilson's peace note. that if an investigation was ordered, and this was really believed in Washington, not sufficient members of Congress would show to form a quorum. and there would be shifting of bank accounts similar to those in the good old sugar investi- gation days
 Lawson has heen invited, and the coun- try will await with interest his exposure of the so-called leak.

CARlz WANTS
 !y!3|;l COMMISSION ..s.<J TALK FURTHER
Suggests Sessions Be Re- sumed to Discuss Cues tiOns Not Connected With
 Troop Withdrawal

Washington, December 2s.-Continu- ation of the conferences of the Mex American joint commission, with out regard to the question of with drawing American troops from Mexico. is proposed by General Carranza in his message refusing to ratify the At lantie City protocol. Coupled with this suggestion, however, is a new appeal for recall of the Pershing expedition and declaration that such action by justment of all remaining questions within a week"
 There were indications tonight that the American members of the com mission might be disposed to comply with the request for further confer ences on the ground that the United States had nothing to lose by doing so. It was officially stated that noth- ing yet had occurred to alter the pol icy of the administration toward Mex ico, and it is generally understood that so long as northern Mexico is in it's present unsettled state Pershings men will stay where they are.
 LESS SECRECY AS TO NOTE
 A copy of the Carranza communi- cation, about which there was less se- crecy today, was sent to President Wilson. Secretary Lane communicated with pr. J R. Mott and Judge George Gray. the other members of the Amer ican commission, and then announced that they would meet here Tuesday to determine whether further conferences shall be held to discuss the various questions at issue other than the with drawal of American troops or wheth- CT the attitude of Carranza has made it impossible for the joint commission to continue is work.
 BaINuS UP OTHER SUBJECTS
 Carranza points out in his reply that there was nothing in the correspond ence that led to the creation of the commission, nor in the credentials or instructions delivered to its members that would preclude consideration of the many other subjects which the commission made incidental to those agreed upon in the protocol. In effect, he suggests that.,the protocol be laid aside for the present and the work Of the commission be directed along fresh channels.
 Although conditions imposed for withdrawal of the troops were not to his liking, he attempted to make it clear that his chief objection to rati- flying the document was not based upon the condition. but on the fact that he could not conscientiously sign anything which would place him in the position of having appeared to sanction the presence even for a brief period in Mexico of foreign troops.
