Recent Laws and Business.


A new condition confronts business
men engaged in the production or dis
tribution Except as common carriers)
of foods, feed, fuel, including fuel oil
and natural gas, fertilizer and its in
gradients, and tools, utensils, imple-
ments, machinery and equipment re-
feed, and fuel. These lines of bust
ness are now by act Of congress I'M
der government control, and must be
conducted in accordance with regula.
tions to be issued from time to time
by President Wilson and Herbert
Hoover, who acts under his authority.
The control which is to be exercised
by the government may be presented
under four heads:
1. Practices prohibited by the stat
ute, and now illegal:
(a) Destruction of supplies for the
purpose of enhancing price or restrict
ing supply.
CD Wilful waste, or wilfully per-
hitting preventable deterioration.
(c) boarding, L. e., holding or con-
tracing for quantities in excess of
reasonable requirements for use or
consumption within reasonable time
2. A second form of control Is to
become operative upon order of the
president and is to the effect that no
man may engage or carry ON any such
business as specified above without a
license from the president. When the
president acts, and licenses are re-
quired, the president may revoke a
license II the licensee makes a profit
or engages in practice which Is "un-
just, or unreasonable, or discrimina-
tory and unfair or wasteful." In this
connection, the president may deter
mine what "is just, reasonable, nom
discriminatory and fair storage
charge, commission, profit or prac-
tice."
8. The third means of control ex-
lists with respect to five articles,
namely, wheat, flour, meal, beans and
potatoes. With regard to such COM
modities the president is authorized
to purchase, store, and sell.
4. The fourth method of control ex-
lists, should the president find it nee.
essary to exercise it, to secure an ade-
quate supply of the commodities men,
toned at the outset Of this bulletin
for the support Of the army, or the
maintenance Of the navy, or for any
other public use connected with the
common defense" Under this pro-
vision of the statute the president may
requisition and take over for use or
operation by the government any plant
or part thereof producing commodities
under discussion.
To stimulate the production Of
wheat the statute guarantees that for
the crop of 1918 the price of No. l
northern spring wheat shall not be
less than 81 per bushel at the princi-
pal interior primary markets. The
president, however is given the au-
thority to fix higher minimum price
If he finds this justified by the emer-
gency. To protect the minimum price

also that he had fully investigated
the reports that the fire was Of in

there is nothing whatever to sup

The fact that three fires were
burning at practically the same time
lends strength TO the incendiary re-

The small number of casualties re-
ported, was regarded by Red Cross
and charity workers as one Of the
most unusual features of the FIRE.
Only about 90 persons had been ac-
counted for tonight as having been
taken TO hospitals. The one death
reported was that of Miss Bessie
Hodges. who died of schock. Many
of those taken to hospitals were suf-
fering from shock, from heat pros
tration or minor injuries.
HousehoIders Keep Ahead.
The wide area in the sweep of the
flames was the scene Of indescribable
confusion. The flames moved in

the ushers were CARRIED in a Greek
costume and the dances also carried
out the Greek idea. The spring
dances were interpreted by Elizabeth

The following were the pictures and
