COMMISSION TO DECIDE
President, at Hoover's Request, En-,

Washington, April 2.-President
mission of five prominent government
officials the determination of a ma
tional policy governing meat produc-
ton, sale and distribution during the
war, which may include virtual price
fixing and definite control or actual
federal operation Of the big pcaking
houses.
This step, just announced, was tax
en- at the recommendation Of Food
Administrator Hoover, who advised
the President that he found himself
poWerless to protect properly all
branches Of the cattle industry, and
that the governments present course
is almost intolerable in criticism
from both producer and consumer"
Mr.. Hoover asked that the President
extend to meat the policy initiated in
steel, copper and other commodities
which are sold at prices fixed on the
basis Of conferences between pro.
ducers and the government.
Policy To Be Determined.
The food administrator suggested,
and President Wilson now has ap-
proved the plan, that a national policy
be determined by the following Off
GERS, acting personally or through au-
thorized delegates, the Secretary of
Agriculture, representing the view
point of the producer, the chairman
of the Federal Trade commission, rep
%resenting the influence of trade condi-
tions, the chairman of the United
States Tariff Board, representing
the viewpoint of the civilian consum-

has to carry out any policy adopted.
Mr.. Hoover in submitting his pro-
posal to the President, outlined the
trials of his organization in seeking
to stimulate production and concur.
rently to prevent ~profiteering. He
declared some change was necessary
to protect producer and civilian con-
sumer, and to insure increased pro-
duction to meet the growing needs

SHOOTING THE MOST DANGER
Gus RAPIDS IN THE WORLD.

Lyman H. HoWe's cameramen have
done many daring things to obtain thrills
for the famous Howe Travel Festivals
but their filming of trip through the
fastest rapids in the world is one Of their
most sensational stunts. This picture,
"a Canoe Trip to Kaieteur Falls" is
on the features of the new Howe Travel
Festival, which comes to the Turner
Theatre on Thursday, Aug. 29.
Kaieteur Falls, located in the depths
of British Guiana, South America, can
only be reached by a dangerous canoe
trip along the Potaro through rapids
and cataracts, dense jungles and difficult
portages. Kaieteur Falls is five times
as high as Niagara, which gives some
idea of the whirlpool beneath. To get
through the rapids below the falls in the
frail native coorial, or canoe, calls for
the utmost skill and daring Of the Guiana
native boatmen. The Howe cameramen
have filmed this shooting of the Kaieteur
rapids and the effect of dashing through
the whirlpool rapids at the speed Of an
express train, the spray half submerging
the coorial, is sensational in the extreme.
"a Canoe Trip to Kaieteur Falls" is
one of the unusual features of the new
Travel Festival. Other interesting
things on the new program are Cup in
the Air with the Marines the most SEN
sational aviation picture ever filmed;
a ramble through southern France, in
natural colors; reproduction of the
famous Red Cross poster" Greatest
Mother in the World, :" expertly animated
in clay; a marvellous freak film which
reveals some grotesque and puzzling
scenic distortions; picturesque tour
Of old Mexico; and Capturing Wild
Animals Alive in the Rockies, show
ing how famous Montana cowboy fear
lessly ropes a savage Canada lynx, puma
and black bear with a lasso as his only
weapon,
The usual amusing Howe animated
caricatures and patriotic film novelties
will round out the new program.

as the City League" and shall consist
of eight teams. One Of the main changes
made at the meeting was in regard to
the time Of bowling. Last year the
match games started at eight o'clock but
this year it was decided to start the
games at 7:3O. Alleys one and two
will be used for bowling of match games.
Last year alleys three and four were
used. The teams for the coming year
were picked, and according to last years
averages they are fairly evenly matched.
. They will not be as strong as last years
teams, however, as several good bowlers
have been called by the draft. It was
decided to start the schedule early in
September as so to be finished early
in April. :
Arthur L. Book was elected chairman
and Ed. j. Berg was elected secretary
of the league.
