PACKERS FAVOR
FIXING PRICES
DISTRIBUTION OF FOOD CON.
sIDERED AT A CONFERENCE
HELD IN WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON. April 17.--Legis-
lation to empower the council of
national defense to supervise the
distribution of food and, If neces-
sary, to fix maximum and minimum
prices, has been framed as the re-
suit of a conference between the
great Chicago meat packers and Sec
retary Houston. Armour, Cudahy
Swift and others assured their CO.
operation and voluntarily proposed
that the government fix prices.
AS their own "bit" in defending
the nation. the packers offered
plan to distribute their products at
a minimum profit. with an estimated
saving of approximately 100000, 900
annually.
Secretary Houston favors the plan
and will have legislation drafted
putting it into effect. Power is to
be vested in the council of defence
to be used only when national in
terest requires it, or when there is
evidence of price fixing or a mon
oply of the supply.

question of where the submarines
have their bases has been revived.
1t is doubted whether submer-
sible could make a trip and return
to Germany without supply base
somewhere on the Atlantic coast.
Some think that mother ships accom-
pany the boats with supplies, or
that merchant submarines of the
Deutschland type now convey fuel
oil and supplies. It is possible that
raiders have planted bases at large
in the south Atlantic where it is
suspected that parts of submarines
shipped to Mexico were assembled
Officials believe probably there is
base in the Gulf of Mexico The
navy is confidents of its ability to
deal with the submarines though
they expect some shipping will be
lost II raiding is extensive.

OIL FLOTAT|ON
TEST At BUTTE
BUTTE & SUPERIOR COMPANY
DEFENDANT IN AN IMPoR-
TANT PATENT SUIT
tBy Associated Press.D

BUTTE. Mont, April 1.-THE trial
of the suit of the Minerals Separa-
tion company against the Butte &
Superior Mining company, for alleged
infringement of patent, began in
the federal court here today. 1t
involves millions of dollars in roy
alties, and is generally known as the
Butte & Superior case.
A feature of the trial will be the
operation in the court room of a
miniature oil flotation plant in order
that the process itself, together with
its evolution, may be visualized for
the court. Work Of the miniature
plant, which it is said, has been
assembled during the last few months
at Anaconda, was started in the
court several days before the op-
ening of the trial. 1t is expected
the trial of the case will consume
at least one month.

HINES LAID BY SUBMARINES
FURNISH STARTLING PROBLEM

a submarine can follow our mine
sweepers," said Sir Edward Carson,
"and as quickly as we sweep up
mines they can lay new ones with
out our knowing or suspecting. Do
not underestimate the danger and
difficulties of that operation, Nee
essarily, this practice involves the
navy in a gigantic work to ensure
ever comparative immunity, Com
plete immunity cannot in the cir
cumstance be expected
Submarine mines of this character
freshly laid, we're swept up in the
path of the American liner St.
Louis. Similar mines. from which
II had a providential escape, were
found at place where the st.
Louis was anchored for several
hours.
During the past two months of
summarizing, three British
destroyers have been sunk in the
English channel by mines.

further details. Whether the ap-
pearance of the submarine foreshad-
ows a sporadic raid or is the signal
for general submarine blockade is
unknown. The attack is Germanys
first recognition of a state of war
Practically no American officials
believed Germany's statement that
no aggressive steps would be taken
against the United States. 1t is ex-
pected that by submarine attack
on unprotected seaboard cities, or
raid on shipping, Germany will en-
deavor to terrify the people. It was
rumored last week that Germany
would declare blockade of Atlantic
ports and 1t is believed the lack of
declaration may be due to crippled
communication. Without such dec
laration Germany would incur great
claims for damages to neutrals. The

union sent the following letter in
reply:
"Citizen Michael Romanoff has
no more right than any other Rus

He can therefore buy a ticket at

LONDON, April 17.--Mines laid in
The important British shipping lanes
BY the German U.boats are proving
Just as serious a problem to the
admiralty as the U-boats themselves.
sk Edward Carson, first lord of the
ldmiFalty. pointed out in speech
IAls week that "in olden times the
hying Of mines was dangerous, but
! vas nothing then to what il is
nov, when submarines are employed
Hol only to sink ships. but to lay
nlnes below the surface Of the
slter"
Mines Of this character have caus-
g heavy loss in the English Chan
rt since the submarine campaign
ssgah on February /, and from the
Humiscnous way In which these ma
ealaes we're scattered, they were
much more difficult TO deal with
lala when placed by surface craft
= more or less defined areas.
