La indignation que ha producido este
hecho es general Ell San Francisco. La

sario dictar una disposition que implda a
los explotadores de los articulos de primera

considerados como I'm atentado y que en-
peoran las condolences de las classes menes-
terosas y no tienen otro fin que enrlquecer

a precios que esten al alcance de todas las

PRESIDENT HOPES
FOR LASTING PEACE

Washington, May 30.-President
Wilson declared here before the
League to Enforce Peace that the
United States was ready to join in any
feasible association of nations to pre-
serve the peace of the world against
political ambition and selfish hostil-
ity" and in service of "a common or
der, a common justice and a common
peace"
He expressed the hope that the
terms of peace which end the present
war would include such an arrange
ment.
Outlining suggestions for peace,
which the president said he hoped the
United States would make If 1t has
the opportunity to do SO, he included
provision for absolute freedom of the
seas, a contention which has been the
keystone of all the diplomatic discus
sions with Germany and Great Britain,
and virtual guarantees of territorial
integrity and political independence.

commenced his specific railroad edu-
cation by becoming station master for
the only line entering the town.

application and a persistent study of
commercial conditions in Southern
Minnesota, he found himself at the
head of what was known as the Hill
Griggs Transportation company, which
also handled fuel, and he continued
in that position for six years.
