Make Many Charges.

Among the charges made in the
campaign against him are that he op-
posed this country entering the war;
that he. criticised the passage of the
Army draft law and predicted trouble
in enforcing it: that he was against
sending American troops to France;
that he refused to invite Marshal
Joffre to visit Chicago. declaring that
it might be resented by German-born
citizens. as Chicago is the sixth Ger
man city in the world, and that he
hesitated several days before he per-
mitted liberty bond statesmen to can
vass the city building.
In his campaign speeches Mayor
Thompson used as a slogan the
phrase America frst," and pro-
claimed his loyalty. He denounced
war profiteering and urged the con-
scription Of wealth to win the war.
Certain sections of his platform. his
opponents declared. were calculated
to arouse class prejudice and rally to
his support the German and labor

HIT PROFITEERING

wood, and Representative Lenroot, now
Senator (Wis), in the House.
1t was upon the resolution introduced
more than n fortnight ago by Senator
Borah that the Trade Commission So
called profiteering report was made.
Senator Borah said tonight that he had
reviewed the report with great interest
and not n little satisfaction so far as
his earlier contentious were concerned.
He had not been convinced whether the
commissioners believed they had dis
covered basis for criminal prosecutions
or other legal actions, but said that
with the consummation OF the present
fight in the Senate over the elimination
Of the $3.50 wheat guarantee he intended
to discuss this phase OF the situation
with the commissioners.
But" said Senator Borah, what this
report has shown is that there must be
in the future cooperative action between
the trainers of taxation legislation and
the agencies of the Government en-
powered to regulate prices. The legis-
lation which will form the basis of regu-
lating the income of the Federal Treas
ury should not be drafted without ade-
quate consideration being given to the
conditions in industry with which 1t
must come to deal.
Price Fixing Works Two Ways.
The regulation OF prices works in
two ways: III the prices are regulated
on the basis Of the maximum cost OF
production by any particular concern
or group of concerns in any particular
industry then 1t is self-evident fact
that the concerns or groups OF concerns
in that industry whose production costs
are normal or subnormal will return a
greater profit than they should be per.
mitted to enjoy without their beine
measurably conscripted in taxation. Or
the other hand, price regulation on the
basis of average costs or on any Other
basis than maximum costs cannot helI
but work in the direction of a reduced
production.
This Is the problem with which Con
gress must come to deal thoughtfully
and consistently II tho regulation of in
dustry is not to result in curtailing pro
duction."
Senator Smoot (Utah) does not look or
the report as a fair reflection of the act
ual industrial situation. He considers tn,
report on first reading as showing that 4
was drafted with the intention of pre-
senting existing conditions in the mos
sensational manner
Senator Smoot did not attempt. how
ever, to condemn the report. Like Sen
ator Borah. he took the view that tn,
report showed more conclusively thar
any document heretofore produced tn
inequable character of unscientific pric,
fixing.
He said that II but demonstrates tina
price fixing is a difficult thing to effec
| without coordination in dealing with ia,

PLEA OF THE KAISER
IGNORED BY CUNNERS
Monastery of Mont des Cats
Still Heavily Shelle,i

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE,
June 30.-There is an interesting d,vel-
opment In connection with the hostile
Smelling OF the territory around Mont des
Cats. where the famous Trappist Monas-
terry is located. For weeks the Germans
have been bombarding this Flemish ele.
walton heavily and the monks home has
been sadly damaged.
The German Emperor wrote q letter
recently to the German commander in
this area, asking that Mont des Cats be
spared because the aged prior OF the
monastery was the only living person
who knew where the Emperor's relative,
Prince Max of Hesse. had been buried
after his death in the monastery in Oc-
tober. 1914. The Prince was attached
to the cavalry which occupied Mont des
Cats in October after the outbreak of
the war.
During an engagement with British
cavalry Prince Max was mortally
wounded and taken to the monastery.
While he was being nursed by the
monks his comrades were driven from
the hill and the British occupied IT..
The Prince died and was buried in a
certain place, the location of which
was not disclosed to the world.
The German Emperor wrote a letter to
the Pope in which he asked for informa-
ton as to where the Prince was buried
and requested the return of the body.
The pontiff forwarded the letter to the
monastery, and 1t was then that the
Emperor got the famous reply-not I'M
til he had evacuated Belgium and made
just restitution would he learn the
whereabouts Of the Princes grave.
The Emperor now appears to be wor-
ried that his guns may kill the only man
able to give him the desired information,
but his request to spare the place, IL
he made such a request. seems to have
met with small response thus far, for big

Mr.. Bruere also declared that the
company Is not large enough to control
prices in any field. Its business is not
such that It may control materials and
the company has never had that object
in view.
The whole matter. according to Mr..
Bruere, seems to be a mistaken notion
on the part Of the Federal Trade Com
mission as to how the salaries OF the
company are paid. The implication of
the commission was that excessive
profits were consciously concealed In
them. This, Mr.. Bruere brought out.

At Budapest the strike has come to

AMSTERDAM. June 30. - Emperor
Charles OF Austria has commanded Pre-

eminent, but he has failed to tell him
how TO do 1t.
Messages received here indicate that
the Premier las enormous difficulties
ahead OF him, as the Poles remain ada
mant in their attitude OF opposition to
his policy. In fact, the Poles already
have declared that they will not even
consider the economic concessions with
which. it is reported. DIR. Won Seydler in

Ukrainians to the Rescue.
on the other hand, the Ukrainian
members Of the Austrian Parliament
suddenly have come to the rescue of II g
German national party, in support of
Won Seydler. to the extent OF declaring
that they will vote for both the budget
and the war credits. on condition that
tte Premier remain in office. They are
quoted as saying they will not tolerate
his dismissal at the behest Of the Poles.
The Christian Socialists declare they
will only stand by Premier Won Seydler
" the old regime in BOZ emia Is con-
tnued. and they are determined to re-
sist any further anti-State agitation.
The attitude Of the German Socialists
In the Austrian Parliament still is OBJ
scure. They probably will await the
course of events. and, according to
reports. are to be persuaded to vote for
the budget, but will refrain from voting
on the war credit.
Cabinet Members Loyal.
The members of the Cabinet have paid
visit to DR.. Won Seydler and have
assured him of their personal friendship
and good will.
Complete accord has been reached for
the joint utilization of all common grain
stocks until the new harvest. according
TO Vienna dispatches. as a result of the
Initiative of Emperor Charles and the
Kaiser.
Emperor Charles sent a letter to the
German Emperor June "a, pointing out
the immense difficulties of the food
situation in Austria-Hungary, whereupon
Emperor William gave orders for a con-
ference at main headquarters and at
Berlin, in which Prince Windisch-Grae
and representatives of the Austro-Hun-
garian supreme command participated.

that the governments OF the British EN-
pire should make such arrangements
among themselves as would insure that
essential raw materials produced within
the empire should be available for utiliz-
alton within the empire and allied coun-
tries.
Germany's inability to procure raw
materials has led to the closing down OF
a great number OF her industries. Re-
turns published In the German press
show that only seventy out Of seventeen
hundred spinning and weaving mills are
now able TO keep open. that only $500
out OF $4,000 silk looms are in opera
ton, that only fifteen out Of f20 works
in the oil industry can do business and
that one-half of the boot and shoe fac
tories Of the empire are closed.
Before the war Germany imported
1880. 100000 worth of raw materials
annually to keep her trade going.
