Washlngton, May 29.-Another

late the foreign trading with
enemy acts.
"The plot now being investiga

is upon the authority of reliable
government informants, secre-
tary Lansing said.
Lansing, Redfield, assistant at
torney general Warren have been
before the committee Of the.
trading enemy act.
The committee 4uesfi5ned FEC Sea-

itinerant bookkeeper, the New York

chants who have not enough work to
fill the time of regular bookkeeper,
to yet have their work done by an ex-
pert at a low cost This work was
taken up some months ago by an en-
terprising young st. Louis business
woman. She had worked for several
years at various positions. as order
clerk, cashier, bookkeeper, for all kinds
Of business concerns.
"When I started out" the young
woman stated. II had cards printed
stating my work. These l sent out in
large numbers to business men. Then
l followed them up by personal calls.
/ found business men much puzzled as
to what could mean by my work. In
such cases gave practical demonstra-
TONS by helping them TO organize and
systematic their accounts, so that they
might know more accurately Just how
much they were MAKING, and whether
their business was on paying basis.
II found that so many merchants
have. an idea that II they buy mer-
chandise at certain figure, then add
20 per cent or 80 per cent for over
head expense. to cover salaries, rent.
