Think the President Will Not
Again Address the Congress
on Need of Food LEGISLATION

Confidence was expressed in admin
istration circles today that the food
legislation program Of the administra-
ton will be enacted before July
without the necessity of President Will
son personally appearing before Con-
gress to urge quick action. The sub
ject was thoroughly gone into yes
terday afternoon at the cabinet meet
ing. and 1t Is said today that President
Wilson again will call in congressional
leaders to impress upon them the need
for the immediate passage of the bills
Labor leaders who saw President
Wilson Monday in regard to the pro-
posed legislation are having confer
ences today with Herbert c. Hoover,
who will be the administrations food
administrator when the bills are passed
by Congress. and a plan is being
worked out whereby labor unions all
over the country will urge on their
congressman passage of the bills by
July 1.
The harvest is already being gath
cred in Texas. and by July ! the flow
of grain into the elevators will be gem
eral, when, Grant Hamilton, a member
of the executive committee of the
American Federation of Labor, states.
the grain of the country will be in the
control of the spectators unless the
government procures the necessary leg
islation.
Reports of increases in the prices Of
canned goods amounting to 100 ner
cent were drawn to the attention of
administration officials today, in con-
nection with previous official renorts
that the cold storage houses are he;n :, .
damned with food. Cabinet officers are
in close touch with these reports and
are laying them before the presidant
as received.

FIGHT FOR EQUAL PAY
Is CARRIED TO CABINET
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait Wants
Women Who Replace Men as
Clerks to Get Same Salary.

Mrs Carrie Chapman Gait, president
of the National American Woman Suf-
frage Association. today carried her
equal pay for equal work" fight into
the cabinet, and called on the heads of
the State. War, Navy and Commerce de-
partments to record themselves on
whether they favor a mans pay for
woman who does his work. Secretary
Redfield yesterday ordered preference
for women in clerkships to release men
for military duty.
Her present inquiry, Mrs. Gait states,
Is prompted by the announcement in
the United States civil service manual
OF examinations that woman stenogra-
piers and typewriters are usually paid
less at entrance into the government
service than are men, and by the state
ment of the civil service commission
that this discrimination Is made by the
appointing officials Of the executive de-
partments and not by the civil service
commission itself. at is difficult to be-
lieve," Mrs. Gait writes to the cabinet
members. that such injustice on the
part of the government is deliberate,
and l have no doubt 1t will be correct
ed when brought to the attention Of the
executive heads. You will agree with
me. am sure, that the essential wrong
to women in thus undertaking. their
work is no less than the unfairness to
men, through the lowering of wage
standards throughout all industry"

CARPENTERS WIN SUIT.
Supreme Court Dismisses Action
Against New York Unions

Injunction proceedings brought by
open shop woodwork manufacturers
TO restrain New York carpenters unions
and Others from refusing to work on
their products. have been dismissed by
the supreme Court of tho United States.
A nation-wide conspiracy in restraint
of trade, through union rule against
carpenters working on open shop" or
..1pfair'' millwork and trim. was
charged in the non-union manufactur-
ers' suit The unions contended that
the embargo was confined to New York
and that the plaintiffs had not been
specially injured by Il, nor were they
the subjects of special discrimination.
That, the unions declared, differed from
the boycott held, illegal in the Dan
bury hatters' case.
Although passed after their suit was
begun in 1904. the manufacturers con-
tended that the Clayton act authorised
Issuance of injunctions to them. It's
prohibition of anti-union injunctions,
they asserted, operates only in suits be-
tween employers and employees and not
between individuals and unions.

TO MEET ENORMOUS DEBT.
Landtag Speaker Says Germany Will
Need War Indemnity.

COPENHAGEN. June 13. via London,
s:a5 AMIN speech In the upper
chamber Of the Baden landtag, DR.. J..
Rheinboldt. finance minister of the
grand duchy, said a war indemnity for
Germany was a necessity, according to
telegram received here from karls-
rune. In his opinion. an indemnity was
required to help Germany out OF the
financial difficulties resulting from
enormous war expenditures, which
would soon exceed 100000. DOC, 900
marks.
In addition to rejecting the socialist
idea OF peace without indemnities, DIR.
Rheinboldt said IL was necessary to
consider plan for a heavy levy on all
property. to reduce the war debt TO
manageable proportions. He suggest
ed sweeping use OF war profits taxa
ton and legislation to prevent con-
centration of enormous war profits in
a few hands. which would be a menace
to the state.

BULGARS-SLAVS OR MONGOLS?
The Serbian Minister Points to Bull
gar Preference for the Latter.

! TO the Ed1tor OF Inc star:
!: A polenio arose between q croatian.
! Mr.. Grgurevich- and a Bulgarian. Mr..
sPanaretoff. on the question whether the
Z Bulgarians are of Mongolian or of
ASlavio race The Croatian. Mr. Grgure-
tvfch, asserts that the Bulgarans are
sNongola basfng his arguments upon
bulgarian sources. that is upon claims
Sof Bulgarian professors and teachers
/ who say that they are not Slavs. The
i Bulgarian, Mr.. Panaretoff. tries to
prove his assertions by giving opin-
ions Of Serbian and Croatian learned
men who considered the Bulgarians as
Slavs.
Because of the sole fact that also my
opinion has been mentioned in that
polenic desire to say a few words
1t is true that the Croatians and
: Serbians always wished to regard the
Bulgarians as their kinsmen, but 1t is
also true that they have never met
/, with success On the contrary. Bull
garian learned men assert that the
! Bulgarians are not Slavs: their poets
, extol their Monaghan blood, and Bull
i ga1an officers boast that their hordes
under Alta pushed forward even up
to Paris Mr.. Grgurevich is correct in
( bringing out this desire of Bulgarians
to be considered as Mongolians. and
r, Mr.. Panareton Is a very rare exception
when he a Bulgarian. wants today to
be considered as a Slav. In order to
OF his own fellow countrymen and
seeks protection from the assertions
Of Mr. Grgurevich's fellow country
men. Meanwhile I think that in this
fact that the Bulgarian conduct has
always been anti-Slavic. Judging them
by their acts. the BulgarianS are the
traitors Of the Slavic cause. It must
never be forgotten that the Bulgarians
only are to be blamed for the whole
present calamity on the Balkan. They
are even the cause of the disaster
which befell Rumania- In September,
1915. Serbia and her allies offered Bull
f; garia all the territory the latter claim
ed. including even Monastir (Bitol).
Bulgaria rejected the offer and allied
herself with Germany and Austria, in
, order to destroy Serbia When Ru-
mania entered the war against Austria,
Bulgaria attacked her from the rear
and largely contributed to her destruc-
don Neither Serbia nor Rumania has
but they Were treacherously attacked
Serbia is fighting for the liberation
OF the whole Croatian and Slovenian
Iace from the German yoke and it is
thoroughly natural that Mr. Grgure-
r. vich. as a Croatian, considers as an
Enemy Of the Slavic cause every one
who ts an enemy OF Serbia Bulgaria
Is now an enemy of Russians. Bohe-
MANS Croatians serbians and Slove-
mans How could Bulgaria, IL q true
SLAVIC country, be a foe to all other
Slavs pondered Mr. Grgurevich, and
found a reply in the assertions of Bull
sgarlan learned men who claim that
they are Mongols. May be, therefore,
II was correct that the Bulgarans were
ciassed as Mongolians, as II was pub
hshed In The Evening Star. Peoples,
same as individuals, are to be judged
not according to their descendants. but
from their acts.

FIXES MILITARY AGE LIMIT.
Canada Legislators Considering Bill
for Compulsory Service.

OTTAWA. June ia bill for COM
pulsory military service by Canadians
between the ages of twenty and forty
FIVE years was presented In the house
of commons Monday by Sir Robert
Borden. The premier said that on jan
uary /. 1915. he had authorized the en-
ltstment OF 100000 men Tor overseas
pledge that the number would be
raised. Under the voluntary system
more than 100000 men had been raised,
and their services had brought cheer to
the British and glory to Canada, he
declared.
Lately the number volunteering had
fallen off, while the demand for men
increased, Sir Robert explained.
