INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. l. -
Profit fixing, as far As it concerns
staple foodstuffs in Indiana, will be
left 20 each county independently
and will not be made a state affair.
This is the decision of retail
grocers called from all parts Of the
state by Harry +. Barnard. federal
food administrator for the state. to
discuss the question of fixing prices.
1t was pointed out that what would
be a fair price TO a grocer in one
part of the state would not be fair
to grocers in another, because Of
differences in transportation cost,
operating and other expenses.
DR.. Barnard. VINO presided at the
meeting, spoke in favor OF the cash
and carry plan advocated by the
federal government and. after long
discussion, the grocers voted to
adopt IT, Stanley Wyckoff, county
food administrator, brought a mes
sage from Herbert Hoover in which
he declared the food administration
expects Indiana to set an example
for the rest Of the country.
The cash and carry plan does not
mean that no deliveries will be made
or that no credit be given. but if
deliveries are made or credit given
they must be paid for

FORCES. OPPONENTS NAME.

A. w. McMasters, candidate for the
state senate from Ward county, North
Dakota, has been sentenced to serve
three years in the federal penitentiary
at Leavenworth, for violation of the
espionage act. He pleaded guilty to
all OF the charges against him and
was bitterly scored by Judge Amidon
in passing sentence.
McMasters admitted writing a sedi-
tious letter, attacking the United
States army and the war for democ-
racy, and then signing the name of
his political opponent, Girdell Pat
terson, to the letter. McMasters sent
the letter to William O'Leary, a Ward
county boy with the American expe-
dictionary forces.
Hoped to Defeat Opponent.
When arrested, he admitted that the
only object he had In writing the let
ter was to defeat Patterson and to
injure the Nonpartisan league, which
Endorsed Patterson. He said that he
hoped that O'Leary would give the
letter to his commander, just in time
to have it returned to the United
States to cause the arrest of Patterson
on the eve Of election. He said he
really hoped that Patterson could
show that the signature was not genu-
Inc and that he would evade criminal
punishment, but that he also hoped
that Patterson would have no time to
prove this before the election.
;, McMasters said that the object of
his letter was to reflect upon the
patriotism of the rest Of the Nonparti-
san league candidates who were on
the ticket with Patterson. He admit
ted that Patterson's reputation was
good and he said that the only way he
could "get' anything on Patterson was
to frame up the letter. So he wrote
the seditious letter and signed Pat,
terson's name to it.
In sentencing McMasters under the
espionage act, Judge Amidon recalled
that other men have stopped to illegal
acts, to malign those who differed with
them. The judge recalled the lynching
VI As~0SAS A0S0A. III A1AXO10 ouu Lu0
mobbing Of Herbert 8. Bigelow, in Gin

were Of sterling quality. The Judge
speaking to McMasters, continued:
'.You were thrown of your balance
to some extent, suppose; you thought
people to whom you were opposed
were dangerous. You resorted to con-
temptible lies and forgery to blast the
good name Of an innocent man. That
