MONGOLIA TRAGEDY
CAUSES GUN CHANGE
Navy to Substitute Wood or

Red Gross Nurses.

Washington, May 30.-To make
impossible any repetition OF the re-
cent unprecedented accident on the
American steamer Mongolia, in which
two Red Cross nurses were killed,
the brass type of powder cup used in
American naval guns for score Of
years, is to be abandoned for wood

that while a similar tragedy might

we do not propose to take the risk.
The change will be sweeping one,
for great quantities of shells of the
kind used on the Mongolia are be-
ing supplied other merchant ships
and all the vessels of the navy itself

Gun Solely To Blame.
The special board of inquiry, which
was headed by Captain F, A. Viii

rested solely on the type OF gun cup,

BOARDING OF FOOD
MEANS HIGH PRICES
Dealers Say That Despite Gov
ernment's Request, Consum-
ers Are Laying in Sur

What does the man. fearing high
food pfices due to the war, profit by
boarding foodstuffs? This is the
question Omaha retail dealers are
asking, and they point out it is in
direct violation of the governments
request that foodstuffs be not boarded.
A grocer, whose average monthly
sale of -four is 500 sacks. sold 1000
sacks last month, but indications are,
dealers say, that in the near future
sales will show a>decided decline.
Housewives and farmers, fearing
war time prices. purchased large
amounts OF -four and other foods, :"
a grocer asserted, but they have lost
money for -four in the eastern mar
kets has dropped and it is very prob.
able that with the proposed control
of the nations food by the govern
ment during the war, the price OF
flour and other products. will drop.
"Hoarding not only hurts dealers,
but hurts the purchaser" the grocer
continued. Heavy sales have a
tendency to-, boost prices, causes a
merchant to buy large stocks at these
high prices. Then sales drop, prices
drop and the dealer has to~drop the
price of his high-priced article
Prices Are Lower.
Even at present, dealers declare, it
is possible to purchase -four at a
lower figure than month ago. The
customers had purchased for the
future and had stocked up for a
month or so to come, while ii thy
had only bought their immediate
needs, they could buy -four now at a
lower figure than they paid for the
-four boarded away in their homes. :,
Not only has -four been purchased
in large quantities, but canned goods,
sugar, dried fruits and other food
stuffs that will keep. And not only

towns, keepers of general stores, re.
port farmers laying in supplies OF
foodstuffs in amounts almost large
enough to last them all summer,

periods. This, dealers declare, is
what demoralizes markets, what
causes high prices, and what may,
eventually force absolute control OF
the country's food supply by the gov
eminent.

With a commission spending as

At the same time, with the commits
