Federal Board to Fix
Prices For Clothing

Washington, Oct. 4.-Prices and
distribution of practically all articles
of wearing apparel are to be con-
trolled by the War Industries
Board. Regulations issued prescrib-
ing certain fixed prices for shoes
constituted only the first step in
general policy for price control of
clothing.
This was disclosed yesterday by
Chairman Baruch of the board in
an address at a special meeting of
the National Retail Dry Goods AS
sociation. Referring to the agree
ment between the board and the
shoe industry, Mr.. Baruch said:
After that will have to come the
Regulation and distribution of most
all of the things which you gentle
men have to deal with. l don't want
| it must be done. 1t is unthinkable
that only the man with the longest
pocketbook can get the things that
he needs.
when it comes to the question of
fair price that is very difficult to
answer. L should say roughly that a
! fair price is price something like
the normal profits in normal times"
| Though no details of the plan to
| be followed in controlling clothing
prices has been announced, it is be-
lieved that standard prices for
standard grades of mems and wom-
ems suits, hats and other articles OF
clothing probably will be established.

AMERICAN TANKS
SCATTER GERMANS
CONTINUED from First Page.l

Tuesday in an attempt to capture
Apremont, on the front northwest of
Verdun. American tanks suddenly
emerged from the town in all direc-
tions. The tanks went lurching
through the German ranks, spraying
bullets into them from all sides and
spreading the utmost terror and con-
sternation.
Huns Remove Big Guns
Two concrete emplacements for big
guns were discovered west of Var
ennes when New York troops advanc-
ed along the eastern edge of the
Argonne forest recently. The guns.
which engineers think were Austrian
205s, had been removed.
\ railroad led up to them. enabl-
ing the enemy to remove everything
of value. 1t is believed the Germans
made haste in removing the big guns
when they saw that a serious Franco
American attack was impending.
Big guns, including two loss and
several us. have been taken by the
advancing New Workers. Many roads
leading from the forest to Montfau-
con and Malancourt We're barred by
concrete pillars calculated to check
Allied tanks. Antitank gun posi-
tions. many of concrete, also were
found. These concrete positions
were for the most part, behind the
main line defensive positions, through
which the Americans broke during
/ the present drive.

the river. and later from other
points. The shifting points of origin
of the fire for the past three days
gives rise to the theory that the
German bonbardment might be
for the purpose of creating the i'm
preston that they possess a greater
amount of artillery than they really
have, it being suggested that the
guns are moved quickly to new po-
sitions after having been employed
against certain targets.
The bombardment over the CEN
tral lines was very heavy for short
periods, but with surprisingly slight
effect.
American aerial supremacy con-
tinues to be maintained with as
tonishing ease. Another enemy ma
chine has been brought down by
antiaircraft guns south of Mont
faucon.
German planes during the night
bombed the cross roads in the back
areas, and the artillery action was
supplemented by the use of phos-
gene and mustard gas. The bonn
bardment both night and day such
as it was, did comparatively little
damage

DIVER MENACE
 GREATER THAN
 IT WAS BEFORE

NEW YORK, Oct. 14.-Sir Eric Geddes, first lord of the British ad- miralty. has appealed to the Ameri- can people to expedite the construc- tion of destroyers and anti-submar- inc craft. He declares that the sub marine menace is greater now than it ever has been in the past and every possible effort must be made to combat them. The American part in the manufacture of fast craft is the greatest factor in the effort to beat the Hun divers and must be pushed even harder than before.
 In speaking of the air craft Ged- des states that the total British losses to date are two hundred and thirty fighting planes with four hun dred and fifty of the auxiliary craft The total loss in merchant marine has reached the enormous figure of seven million, seven hundred and fifty thousand tons consisting of twenty.four hundred merchantmen

The present loan is the great est financial task ever given to a nation just as the present victory is the greatest military triumph that any nation or group of nations has been able to bring about The total subscriptions up to date are only three billion, which is only one halt of the minimum.
 Even though the war should end in a few weeks the government will need the money in the bringing of the soldiers home and in carrying out the shipping plans. It is even possible that an additional loan may be called for.

FIRE DESTROYS
 BOARDING HOUSE
 AT HAPPY CAMP

Early yesterday morning fire de- kan Engineering commission at the construction camp on the Nenana main line at Bartlett's camp. The cause of the blaze was gasoline lamp, which exploded, throwing the combustible liquid in all directions. The building, which was of log construction, was some time in burn ing and owing to the absence, of ample water it was entirely con- sumed together with a quantity of supplies. Within few hours after the fire a force of men were put to work erecting permanent mess quar- ters.
 Tle only person injured was Mrs. Peterson, the night baker. who re- ceived severe burns on the arm from the flying liquid. At the present time she is in the hospital receiving medical attention.
 Pending the erection of the new quarters the force is being accom- modated at the mess at the gravel pit, being hauled to and from their work in a passenger coach by one of the new dinky engines. In spite of the temporary disarrangement of the working schedule progress is being made on construction.
