STOP IS PUT TO
CORN SPECULATION

CHICAGO, July 13.-The fixing Of
maximum price Of $1.2S bushel for
the December 1917) and the May
Q918) options for corn was regarded
by members of the Chicago board of
trade today as practically putting a
stop to speculation in the new crop
Of that grain. The board Of directors
who met after the close OF the market
yesterday made no formal announce
ment of the reasons for the action, but
an official of the board, said the es-
Enlistment of a maximum price for
December and later options seemed
necessary to bring trading conditions
into harmony with the governments
war policy of preventing undue specu-
lation and unwarranted high prices to
consumers.
The maximum price of $1.65 a
bushel for the September option which
was fixed by the board some time
ago, was not disturbed by the action

INDIANAPOLIS. July 1s.-whole-

feared the 3rects of the new policy
which refusSs the return of unsold
bread by raPilers, have become the
most enthusiastic advocates Of this
new plan Of pnserving the bread sup
ply Of indiana.
Reports received by the state coun-
ell Of defen4l, which Endorsed the
campaign Of r e. Barnard, food con-
servntor, prove that the patriotism Of
the bakers Is rs dependable as that
Of the regular army itself. For they
have enrolled 400 per cent. in this
movement, which heretofore has been
the source of Tasting thousands of
barrels Of -four annually.
In Lake county the wholesale bak-
ers have engaged in an advertising
campaign that Has for its object the
plan of ordering;bread at time far
enough in advanee to enable the re-
t1iler to order exactly the quantity Of
bfead he can dispose of without loss.

This will not only assure the grocer

PRESIDENT TELLS RUSSIA
j. s. VIEWS OF PEACE
mo INDEMNITIES" EXCEPT IN PAYMENT FOR WRONGS
DONE; NO CHANGES EXCEPT TO SAFEGUARD FUTURE
PEACE.

The note which President Wilson
public.
The President outlines the views Of
the United States as to possible terms
of peace. He makes it clear that the
phrase ''peace without indemnity"
does not mean peace based on the
Status quo" nor even on the status
quo ante"
These are Latin words much used
in peace negotiations "Status quo"
means the condition of things as they
now are; status quo ante means the
condition Of things as they were be-
fore: that is, in this case, before the
war which began in 1914.
This IL the gist of the Presidents s
statement of the views of the United
States:
"The war has begun to go against
Germany, and in their desperate de-
sire to escape the inevitable ultimate
defeat those who are in authority in
Germany are using every possible in
strumentality to promote prop
aganda on both sides of the sea which
will preserve for them their influence
at home and their power abroad.
''The Imperial German Government
and those whom it is using for their
own undoing are seeking to obtain
pledges that the war will end in the
restoration of the status quo ante.
1t was the status quo ante out of
which this iniquitous war issued forth.
the power of the Imperial German
Government within the empire and its

widespread domination and influence
outside of that empire. That status
must be altered in such fashion as to
prevent any such hideous thing from
ever happening again. -.
mo people must be forced under
sovereignty under which it does not
wish to live. No territory must
change hands except for the purpose
of securing those who inhabit it a
fair chance of life and liberty. No
indemnities must be insisted on eX-
cept those that constitute payment for
manifest wrongs done. No "eadjust-
ments Of power must be ma! except
such as will tend to secure t. future
peace of the world and IT, future
welfare and happiness Of its Gepple.
For these things we can Saford to
pour out blood and treasure. For
these are the things we hav,a-. lways
professed to desire, and unless we pour
out blood and treasure now, sanl sue
ceed, we may never be able TO unite
or show conquering force aga in n the
great cause of human liberty. Th. day
has come to conquer or submit"
