TAKES THE CBNPNR OF
WAR STAGE WITH TURKS
SMASHED BY ALLENBY
FAIR PRICE BOARD.
Threshed Out the Milk Question
Yesterday Evening. Con-
cluded That the Differences
in Price Are Justified by Con-
ditiOns.

Yesterday evening the Fair
Price Board met at the Santa
Cruz Club for the regular week
iy adjustment Of prices. The
table is printed in another col
umn, and such changes as were
made have been made in the
figures.
There appeared before the
board several of the dealers sell
ing milk in Nogales, who had
been invited by the Chairman
of theBoard to discuss the wide
differences in prices charged.
AS was stated in the account of
the proceedings week ago sew
eral of the dairies are charging
but Is cents per quart, while
one is getting % cents for milk.
The idea was conveyed that
there was in that an invidious
and unjustifiable discrimina-
tion.
Mr.. Clagett, proprietor of the
Jersey Farm Dairy stated that
that establishment keeps up the
standard all the year, feeding
bran, alfalfa and other milk
making feeds, observe all the re-
quirements of sanitation, care
of COWS, etc., that are required
of a modern dairy, all of which
is very expensive; and that even
at % cents per quart for milk
that dairy is making no mar
gins. On the other hand there
are those selling milk who run
their COWS on the range, feed
them nothing but what the ami
mails can pick up, deliver a nat
urally inferior quality OF pro-
duct, and can do so only when
the rainy season is on and grass
is good. Such deliveries are
cut off automatically when the
dry season comes on and the
dealers go out of business. AT
Is cents per quart, charged by
those dealers, they can afford
the price better than the Jersey
Farm Dairy at % cents, while,
at the same time, the SUPERIOR
tv of, the latter milk in butter
fat makes it worth the money.
Louis Mastick of the Monte
Carlo dairy stated facts very
similar to those set forth by Mr..
Clagett. Both predicted 3O-cent
milk within thirty days.
Doctor Chenoweth addressed
the board, detailing the differ
ences in the per centages of but
ter fat in the milk from various
COWS. and the relative value OF

STAMP LAW VIOLATIONS.
Internal Revenue Collector Calls
Attention to Stamp Law.

County Recorder ARGUS Red
doch has received the following
letter from Louis w. Carpenter,
collector of internal revenue
which interested parties would
do well to heed:
Deputy collectors from this
office, upon examining records
OF documents recorded in vari-
GUS counties of this district,
have noted that there are innu-
merable violations of the Stamp
Act of October 3, 1917, which
became effective Dec. 1, 1917. I
am quoting below a portion of
the administrative regulations
pertaining to the Act:
ut shall not be lawful to rec
ord or register any instrument,
paper or document required by
law to be stamped unless stamp
or stamps of the proper amount
shall have been affixed and can
celled in the manner prescrib-
ed by law.
where a deed is presented to
a recording officer and it ap-
pears probable that an insuffi.
cient amount of internal reve-
nue. stamps are attached thereto
and he is not satisfied with the
explanation furnished by the
party offering the same for rec
ord, he should notify the col
lector of internal revenue. 1t is
not expected that the recording
officer will institute an investi-
cation to see whether there has
been any violation of the law,
nor is it thought that he should
exact an affidavit showing the
true consideration.
"It is unnecessary that the
true consideration appear in the
body of the deed, but the re-
cording officer is required to
ask for an oral statement of the
same.
"Any document recorded af-
ter July 1, 1918, and not prop
erly and sufficiently stamped,
will occasion the violators be-
ing called upon to execute an Of
fer in compromise in lieu of
prosecution and pay the COM
promise offer of $500; also
stamps to the proper amount
will have to be affixed to the
deed"
ATTACHED is a copy of the
letter that I have been using in
connection with violations that
the deputy collectors have un-
covered. I trust that you will
cooperate with me to the full
est extent in this matter"
1t will be seen that a strict
compliance with the Stamp Act
and the rules governing it's en-
forcement will save a deal of
trouble to say nothing of the ex-
pense.

Sugar Dealers
Are Fined $4,000
For Prohteering
Jaburgs Ordered to Pay
Sum to Red Cross Immedi-
ately or Close Business

The largest fine yet imposed in the
United States for food profiteering-
s20,000--was meted out by the Federal
Food Board for New York yesterday to
Jaburg Brothers, 10 Leonard Street,
one of the largest dealers in sugar and
bakers and confectioners' supplies in
the United States. The sentence has
been approved by the food administra-
tion in Washington.
Jaburg Brothers were ordered to pay
this sum to the American Red Cross at
once or shut up shop. 1t represents
their alleged abnormal profit on a
series of sugar transactions, plus a
large sum as penalty.
Closing the business would have
been the sentence, the Food Board an
nounced, except that closing would have
worked hardship to several small bak-
ers and confectioners dependent upon
Jaburg Brothers for supplies.
The transactions took place between
last November 1 and January Ia. Hugo
Jaburg pleaded ignorance as to maxi
mum profit regulations.
Alan Fox, head of the Food Boards
bureau of licenses, in passing SEN
tence, said Jaburg Brothers easily
could have ascertained they were sub
ject to the maximum profit regulations.

O'Co11nor Calls New
Lord Chancellor
Insult to Ireland
Appointment of Sir James
Campbell a ''Provocation''
to Catholics and Nationals

The appointment of Sir James Camp
bell as Lord Chancellor of Ireland, as
announced Tuesday in a cable dis
patch from London, was declared here
yesterday by T. P. O'Connor, NJ. P, to be
'an open and violent insult and provo
cation to the Catholics and National
lists in Ireland"
Mr.. O'Connor made the following
statements:
"The appointment of Sir James Camp
bell to the Loro Chancellorship OF
Ireland with the obviously enforced
Nationalist and Catholic. is one of
history. 1t is an open and violent m
suit and provocation to the Catholics
and Nationalists in Ireland.
"Sir James Campbell has stood all
through his life for the most extreme
section of Irish Tory and Orange opin-
ion. He was the second in command
to Sir Edward Carson in the Ulster
rebellion. When the proposal was
made on the formation of the Coali-
tion Ministry in 1915 to make him Lord
Chancellor it so shocked not only the
lrlSh farlamonCaTy party, DuC tne
Liberal and Labor members, that q
protest was made to Mr.. Asquith, with
the intimation that debate and divi-
sion would be forced, and, realizing that
a majority of the House of Commons
would have condemned the appointment
and destroyed the ministry, the nomi.
nation was withdrawn.
"The disappointed ex-Orange rebel
however. received compensation in the
Attorney Generalship and later in the
Lord Chief Justiceship, with the hand
some salary Of $4,000 per year. The
Lord Chancellorship in Ireland means
as much an executive as q judicial Of
flee, the Lord Chancellor being an in
tegral and important part of the lrlsf
executive.
"a soldier as Lord Lieutenant ane
Sir James Campbell as Lord Chancellor
is the response of the Lloyd George
administration to the plea of lrelant
for Home Rule. 1t seems to mean (
Home Rule bill drawn on Orange lines
and in the certain event of such bill
being scornfully rejected by ireland i
means the government of Ireland b.
the soldiers and by the Orang
minority

Coleman Says French Ge-
MUS and British Stamina
Are Winning Factors

George W. Coleman, of Boston, for
merly president of the Associated Ad-
vertisers' Club of the World, heart
ened the members of the New York
Advertising Club at their luncheon,
yesterday, with the prediction British
grit, French genius, Italian gallantry
and American gumption will win the
war"
Mr. Coleman returned recently from
four months tour of the fighting
countries, as chairman of the Bap-
tist War Commission.
He eulogized British grit, giving ex-
ample after example of the indomini-
table courage which causes men to
use artificeA to get back into the fight
after they have been invalided out Of
the French, he said they were the
greatest military tacticians in Europe.
The Italians" he went on, "by their
gallant stand and recuperation are re-
leasing thousands of men to aid in
throwing back the renewed Hun on
slaught.
"But the American gumption is one
of the greatest of the Allied assets
Gumption is doing the right thing at
the right time without regard for pre-
cedent. When General Pershinp bri-
gaded his men with the English and
French, he filled our Allies with a
feeling of fellowship and cooperation
| that has been wonderfully effective"
Mr.. Coleman praised the health, mo-
rality and fighting spirit of the Ameri-
cans in France. The French have one
criticism of them, he said. They are
too rash and eager and take unneces.

After saying that he had heard much
comment about the different degrees of

now united as one fighting force.
"This is a contest in which we are
one" he said. "We stand on one line,
have one command and one aim. We
must remember that there can be but
victory, not for the.aggrandizemont of
any one nation, but victory for that
wisdom and justice which make for the
peace and freedom Of mankind. So
therefore let us continue undaunted in

Degrees Awarded to ALL
The commencement exercises which
preceded the luncheon were, according
to DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler, the
most impressive he had ever witnessed
at Columbia. Degrees were awarded
to 2,111 graduates beneath flags of the
Allies and service flag of more than
1000 stars. AS the roll of each class
was called and stood to receive honors,
the toll of war on the university was
seen. In some instances not single
representative of school had remained
behind.
DIR. Butler spoke Of the spirit which
had led the students of Columbia to
go to war. "Our roll of students has
fallen from more than 22,s00 to less
than 1o,500," he said, "and each week
sees rev groups turning from their
tasks to accept some form of public
service. The universal ambition is to
be as near the firing line as possible" y
Fifty-seven degrees of a new kind
were awarded yesterday. Bachelor of
Arts certificates for academic record

not gone to war. One of the fifty
seven. Chandler Waterman, died of

classmates.
Following the commencement exer-
cises, the class of '91 presented a gate

Waldorf Yields to Feminine
Sway; Girls Run the Elevators
Such Polite and Quick Service Never Saw Before Says
Oscar-Men Ousted by New Draft
Regulation

The Waldorf-Astoria, last stronghold
of conservatism, fell before the fem
mime invasion yesterday, to the extent
of installing eight girl elevator opera
tors. With Peacock Alley shorn of its
splendors, and the millionaire mine
owners all gone to war, however, the
new era in the Waldorf created moth
ing like the sensation that marked the
advent of the first telephone girl back
in the good old days.
Oscar Tschirky, manager Of the
hotel, gave them the once over early in
the day, and then gave his attention tc
more important tasks. 1t was rumorec
that new recipe for making corn muf.
fins was about to be tried out, which
required the closest supervision from
the great Oscar. Anyway, a little
thing, or rather eight little things, like
elevator girls, didn't worry him at all
However, he did not neglect to ex
press his satisfaction after few tria
trips with the elevatorettes.
"Such polite and quick service
New-York tribune., 1918-06-06

never saw before" said he. "The
young ladies are very businesslike, yet
more careful than boys, and their
quietly spoken, Floors, please is very
agreeable"
In spite Of the commentator of
Oscar, the girl operators labored under
depressing circumstances yesterday.
this being the lack of their new uni
forms of Palm Beach cloth.
Photographers, who besieged the ele-
vator shaft, were turned away, while
the girls sighed in vain for their pretty
costumes. They were temporarily
fitted out in black uniforms belonging
to the chambermaids, and while the
white-haired diplomats who were con-
voyed to their floors professed to ad-
mire the snappy white aprons and caps,
the pioneers Of the new profession
pouted
The change in the Waldorf staff was
made necessary by the new draft rule,
which has drawn many of the men
operators from an "unessential occu-
patton" The few remaining will be
put at night duty on the elevators and
other tasks about the hotel not suitable
for women :.
