WHY ZAIMAIS RETIRED
Greek Premier Afraid to Call To.
gether Dissolved Parliament.

Athens, June 29.-The resignation
of Premier Zamais was occaSioned by
his decision that he could not assume
responsibility f : convocation of the
parliament of May 81, 1915, which
King Constantine dissolved.
NJ. Jonnart, diplomatic representa-
tive of the allies. demanded the as
sembling of this parliament, in which
NJ. Venizelos had a majority. In re-
signing NJ. Zamais announced that
King Alexander was willing to COM
ply with all the demands of the e,l-
tente.
1t is understood NJ. Venizelos will
be premier. Nicholas Politis, foreign
minister of the provisional govern
ment set up at Saloniki by NJ. Vent
zelos, probably will have the foreign
portfolio in the Venizelos cabinet 1t
is expected Admiral Coundouriotis
will be minister of marine and Cen
eral Danglis minister of war or chief
of the general staff. Neither the
archbishop of Athens nor members of
the holy synod who took part in the
matchmaking of NJ. VenizeIos, will
be present at the administration of

gendarmes will act as a body guard
for M. Venizelos

REMOVE IMPORT DUTY
Mexican Government Trying to Re-

Mexico iCty, June 29.-By order of
the government, all import duties were
removed last night from articles of
prime necessity, including foodstuffs,
from July to December 81. Import
duties were removed on gasoline and
higher derivatives of petroleum. This
places the refiners in Mexico in COM
petition with refiners in the United
States and undoubtedly is due to the
rise of gasoline from % to so CEN

Stop ExtOrtiOn.
Reed Demands Showing by
Paper Trust PrOberS.

Washington, June 29.-Charging
that the federal trade commission has
failed to use it's power to stop extor
paper manufacturers, Senator Reed
has introduced a resolution to direct
the commission to inform the senate
why it has not issued order prohibit
ing unfair and illegal practices
Proceedings in federal courts
against the manufacturers are sug-
gested as an alternative, the resolu-
ton following the recent formal
charges of illegal combination
brought by Frank P. Walsh of Kan
sas City.
THE singular thing" said Senator
Reed, lis that while the commission
has had this case in hand for more
than a year and for a long time has
been in possession of facts that the
conspirators have disseminated in
prices between different purchasers
of commodities it has never at any
time issued an order to these consp1r-
ators commanding them to 'deslst
from the violation of the law Aston
ishment is increased when 1 remem-
Der that the provisions of the Clayton
antitrust act are mandatory and I'M
pose upon the commission the duty to
issue such order.

why the unfair practices which the
I reports abundantly show have been
flagrantly employed, have not been
stopped"

WANTS Gas PRICE
Governor Capper Has Scheme
To Beat Court Decisions.
Asks Garfield To Clamp on
Govt Control of Commodity.

Governor Capper has a scheme to
beat the federal court decisions in the
Kansas Natural Gas cases. He has
appealed to Harry A. Garfield, coal
director, in an effort to secure govern
ment action III the gas case as well as
in the coal controversy.
In Washington this week Governor
Capper urged that the government
direct a lower price for gas. His p.Ib-
lie utilities commission. he said, had
fixed a price of % cents while The
federal court recently approved a rate
of so cents a thousand cubic feet. The
federal court held jurisdiction in the
case and declared that the state com
mission had spent thousands of dollars
of the states money without right or
authority to interfere in the gas con-
troVersy.
The appeal which Governor Capper
made for interference in the gas case
would provide for a government rate
for both coal and gas in this state
Director Garfield did not give the gov
ernor direct answer in his appeal
Neither was Il decision given concern
ing the attitude of the government as
affecting the Osage< county coal lis
trict, where both operators and miners
are dissatisfied. Practically all mines
in the field are shut down-the OPP
orators refusing to sell coal az the
price fixed by the government and
the miners refusing to work under
the existing wage contract Only the
labor exchange mines are operating.

food pledge cards are of value to the

THE NOVELTY

La Petite Mercedes, pretty, dainty
and with feet that fly as tho winged,
spices the close of the Novelty bill for
the first half of this week with a series
of whirlwind dances. Beginning her
act in a costume half Russian and
half American, she changes. while in
ballet toe dancer, and then to the
more daring and exaggerated costume
of the American semi-ciassic. Her
last dance, favored richly witt tinge
of the Egyptian, puts Strong finish
on her act.
The program opens. with the first
episode of THE Neglected Wife" and
is followed by Stanley and Lea, the
opening vaudeville act. who demon
strate the fact that Hawaiian music
is more beautiful when played on
American instruments than it is on
the native instruments. Howard and
Syman, masculine dancers, open their
turn with sailor dances. They follow
with a touch of comedy.
Tom Davies. Dorothy Redding, Miss
Maize Oliver and Thomas F. Mulroney
appear in a farce wherein several
things happen after a wife joins the
housewives union and refuses to cook
dinner out of union hours. The farce
is a little overdone in spots but there
are many places in 1t that tickle the
fancy of a Novelty audience. Fogarty
and Williams hold the fourth spot
with a bunch of comedy efforts.
The five acts cost Crawford more
money than either of the two bills

HID IN SMOKE BOMBS
French Steamship Escapes Submarine
With New Method.

An Atlantic Port, Aug. 2S.-A thrill
ing story of a two hours running fight
with a submarine, during which the
new bombs. which shroud vessels in a
cloud OF thick black smoke, were
used as one means of defense, was told
by passengers arriving here on d
French steamship today
The submarine attacked the vessel
at 9:45 a. m. on August 20, just out
side the bay of Biscay. Most of the
women passengers were still in be-.
or in their baths and at the danger
signal came umbling on deck in vari-
Gus phases of undress. The ship i'm
mediately began to zigzag while the
naval gunners blazed away at the
boat, which could be plainly seen be-
fore the smoke screen was released.
The new smoke continuance looks
like a series of huge cheese boxes
swung on the side of the ship. The
bombs are released in these boxes and
let loose dense clouds of smoke. Pas
sengers said the screen was entirely
effective. After it was dropped, how
ever. the gunners could not see the
submarine.
