on the other hand. some of these
dealers went to the manufacturers
whom they represented and were able
TO secure additional tickets. Some OF
these the manufacturers had to pay
for and some they didn't. A certain
leevay for emergencies was PROVIDED
by the management.
But those dealers who didn't get
any more tickots after their three ad--
missions were exhausted were sore a'
heart--and complained.
Inasmuch as the same arrangement
will be in effect at the Chicago show

This seems TO be the situation:

each dealer ought to be able to get IN

CHICAGO, May 1.-THE fate
Of grain gambling was to be de-
cided today.
Representatives of the grain
exchanges of st. Louis, Kansas
City, Minneapolis, Toledo, Omaha
and Duluth were to meet here
with officials of the Chicago
board of trade at o'clock this
afternoon to take uniform action
toward stopping all trading in flu
lures.
These steps will be considered,
it was stated unofficially today.
Establishment of maximum
price for all wheat futures, the
prices to be adjusted as the mar
ket requires.
Prohibition Of further trading
in any May grain contracts.
Fixing the maximum prices on
July and September corn.
Elimination of the purely spec
ulative element from the market,
and adoption Of strict rules and
exercise of suspension of those
who do not conform.
Uniformity of action in de-
manding excessive margins.
The immediate effect of
the uncertainty of grain con-
ditiOns was the inevitable

other way-by calling for a revo-
luton of the workmen and peas.
ants of Germany and Austria
Hungary. This will bring pcesAa
after we have obtained our gov.
ernment's remuneration of any
policy Of conquest and after We
have demanded a similar renunci.
alton from other allied powers.
But do not forget that peace
is not to be achieved unless you
check the enemy's pressure.
Blindly Follow Kaiser
How can you accomplish this
defense II you remain inactive In
the trenches? Don't forget revo-
lutionary troops can only rightful-
ly fraternize with troops which are
likewise revolutionary and who
are ready to die for peace and
liberty. But the German army Is
not revolutionary. 1t still blindly
follows the emperor and the CAPT.
talists.
Reject, therefore, everything
weakening our military power
distracting the army and lowering
the morale of our soldiers. Be
worthy of the trust that revolu-
tionary Russia imposes on you."

DEMAND
A WAR
MARKET

The establishment of war
market In Tacoma, as we'll as
other cities of the nation, under
the supervision of public agricul-
turists and economists. is urged in
resolutions passed by the Monday
Civic club, as the surest way Of
eliminating the food SPECTATORS.
The resolutions were prepared
by Mrs. w. p. Yarnell, chairman
of the food committee of the club,
which includes Mrs. j. L. Calwell
and Mrs. George p. Wright.
They say:
Resolved, that we are con-
WINGED that the present high
prices of food are due to specula-
ton more than to scarcity, that
we object to the exploitation OF
the entire nation by the food
gamblers and we look to our pub
lie officials to protect us from
such exploitation.
THAT II has been proved i'm
practical to try to curb specula-
ton by regulating prices after

and reached the spectators.
THAT the surer way is to elimi-
nate the speculator as war meas
ure by allowing produce to be dis
tributed at a minimum of expense
by public agriculturists.
THAT an ounce of prevention is
worth a pound Of cure.
THAT Investigations are waste
of the peoples time and money.
That we want change; not q
probe.
"In addition to a national move
ment to control the food supply
we ask for a war market to be
established In every city under
the direct supervision of public
agriculturists and economists.
Therefore, we urge congress
to take such steps at once as will
free the coming crop from specu-
lation and give both the producer
and consumer their natural rights
in the resources Of the nation"
