BREAD PRICES ARE
EXPECTED TO COME DOWN

Wellington. Sept 1O.-With the
price of wheat stabilized and a scale
of profits adopted by flour manufac-
turers, the food administration turn
ed its attention today to plans for re-
ducing the cost of bread.
A dozen leading bakers, compris-
ing the war emergency council of
their national association, meeting
with food administration officials,
were given an outline of what is
hoped to be accomplished by elimi-
nation Of wasteful practices sin the
baking industry and by cooperation
OF the bakers themselves.
Food administrator Hoover be-
lieves bread prices can be brought
down fully 90 per cent when the new
wheat crop begins TO move more free
ly. Bread now is selling at variety
of prices throughout the country and
in no city are loaves the same size.
The food administration hopes to es-
tablish a standardized loaf of sixteen
ounces to sell at six cents and an
other Of fourteen ounces to retail at
five cents.
FluctuatiOn Eliminated
This would represent a consider
able reduction in prices now gener-
ally obtaining. The bakers chief OBJ
lection to the standardized loaf has
been that fluctuation in the cost of
materials has made 1t impossible to
maintain standard loaf at a stand
ard price.
With wheat and flour prices stab
ilized there 10 no reason, food admin
istrators declare, why the size can
not be standardized, and with flour
prices cut, the price OF bread they
hold, should fall.
The food administration has no
power over retail prices, and all II
can accomplish must be done through
cooperation and voluntary acquies.
cence to Its suggestions.
Cheaper Flour
minneapolis, Mimi, Sept. 10
Wholesale flour prices probably will
drop fifty cents the barrel as soon al
the new wheat crop begins moving
through the mills, local millers said
today when shown statement by tn,
food administration that decline o
$3 a barrel may be expected at tina
time. The statement was interpret
ed by the millers as meaning tina
the former prices, which were s.
above the present quotations, woul
not be reached again.

With this issue the writer enters
upon his fourteenth year in the ca
pacity of guiding spirit of the Elk
aminer. 1t is needless to say that
we are not feeling quite as vigorous
today as we did thirteen years ago
this week At that time we were
totally ignorant of the queer and
unexpected pranks Ford car can
perform. In fact, automobiles were
then curiosity in Bear Lake coun-
ty, while tin lizZies' had not even
been heard of. Although nursing a
broken rib and badly bruised right
shoulder, which makes writing any
thing but a pleasant task, we cannot
refrain from calling attention to
some of the improvements that have
been made in Montpelier In thirteen
years. Neither can we refrain from
referring to the fact that the Ex-
aminer took the initiative in every
one of the public improvements that
have been made.
Thirteen years ago there were two
school districts within the city limits
OF Montpelier and no studies above
the eighth grade were taught i'm the
schools.
Today Montpelier has a fairly well
equipped high school, with an enroll
ment as large as is found in the aver
age western town Of its size.
Thirteen years ago Montpelier had
no water system, and sentiment was
quite strong against voting bonds
. for this much needed Improvement.
But in the city campaign OF 1905,
matters we're so manipulated that for
the first time in the history of the
city the election was conducted on
partisan lines, and both party plat
forms had planks strongly favoring
the installation of a water system.
The present water system is the re-
suit of the start made in the cam
paign Of 1905.
Thirteen years ago there was not
a foot OF cement side walk in the city.
Today there are approximately 3O,-
600 feet Of cement side and cross
walks.
Thirteen years ago every business
house in the city, except three, were
frame structures. Today the bust.
ness portion OF Main street presents
a decidedly different appearance.
Thirteen years ago Montpelier
principal hotel was the frame struc
ture now known as the Downina
apartments. Today Montpelier has
q hotel that would be credit to any
city OF $4,000 population. In fact
one OF the speakers at the Chautau
qua two weeks ago, took occasion Il
congratulate the town upon havins
such an excellent hotel. He said Il
was the best one he had found ON hi
travels. throughout the Northwes
this season.
Thirteen years ago Montpelier haC
not even the semblance OF a city hall
and little did the most progressiv,
citizens of that day think that in tn,
year OF Our Lord, nineteen hundred
and seventeen, Montpelier coult
boast of having about the handsom
est, IL not the largest. city hall in tn,
state.
In the erection OF new homes
Montpelier has done we'll in thirteen
years, and in many other ways tn,
town has quietly forged ahead.
There is room for much more I,
be done in the way of civic improve
ments, but we doubt not but wha
most OF them will be made in tn,
near future. The one great step thi
year was the action taken by the cit,
administration which will result In ,
sewer system being installed yet thi
yeear.

Many woman endures with noble

aches and pains follow.

Cornwell Is Resentful

Cornwell Is Resentful

BOSTON, Nov. Ex-Governor Mccall
made public to-day letter in which he
declined to grant a requisition made BY
Governor Cornwell Of West Virginia
for the return TO that state of John
johnson, a negro, charged with an at
tack upon q fourteen-year-old white
girl Governor Mccall informed the
West Virginia executive that there was
grave danger" that the fugitive black
might be convicted in West Virginia Of
a crime of which he was innocent, and
wrote that ain the history Of some Of
the greatest states Of our Union there
is far too much Of gross injustice and
the denial Of rights of our citizens Of
African descent"
In reply Governor Cornwell wrote
that the investigator Governor Mccall
had sent 70 Charleston had conducted
an unfair inquiry, that the suggestion
Of prejudice affecting West Virginia
court was unwarranted and untrue and
that the prosecuting attorney Of that
state had had no opportunity to present
his side of the case to Governor Nc
Call. In conclusion he wrote:
Reflection on State
'Your refusal 70 grant this requisi-
tion for the reasons as alleged consti-
tutes a reflection upon the State of
West Virginia and shows a deplorable
lack of knowledge Of it and its people.
II also, in my opinion, tends to thwart
the ends of justice, and violates the
spirit of comfy between the states 10
such an extent that ] shall feel COM
PEELED to scrutinize with more than
usual care any similar requisition from
you"
Assistant Attorney General Nelson P
Brown, who was directed by Governor
Mccall to conduct a public hearing,
reported that exaggerated accounts of
the crime had been circulated in
Charleston, and because of their nature
and Johnson's color there existed
prejudice (which would be difficult, if
not impossible, Of control by the most
upright Judge" Mr.. Brown recon-
mended that the negro, who is in jail
here, be not returned TO West Virginia.
IN luQOToluB the AhulHBo u tlS AS
sistant Attorney General Governor Nc
Call, in his letter TO Governor Corn
well. concluded as follows:
"The trained officer who has consid-
cred this case for the commonwealth
having reported against the return of
the defendant, l feel compelled 10 act
accordingly, very greatly as l regret
not to grant any request made by your
exoellency."
Johnson TO Go Free
II was announced at the Governor's
Office that Johnson, who has been held
in default Of $4,000 bail on a charge
of being q fugitive from justice, would
be released forthwith.
The crime with which johnson is
charged is an attack on Nellie Kellen-
berger, q fourteen-year-old white girl,
alleged TO have been committed in De-
cember, 1916. Nine persons were in
dicted in the case, seven iof whom are
now serving sentences for the crime.

CLEVELAND, Nov. 20.-John d.

This wire means loss Of $4,000 the
takers hoped to add to the county rev.
enues.
"If Rockefeller were paying taxes on
a reasonable assessment in New York
it would be different" Zangerle said.
"Since he pays on an assessment OF
only s5,000,000 there, felt he ought
TO be willing to do something here"
Mr. Rockefeller pays. taxes here on
his Forest Hill estate and on about
$1,000 worth of automobiles and house
