PfRUV|AN IN CHILE ORDERED TO TAKE FIRST BOAT HOME
WHAT WILL BECOME
OF THE AVIATORS? ?

Paris, Nov. 26.-What will be-
come of the aviators now that the
fighting has ended?
Commercial aviation doubtlessly
will be extended greatly but it Is a
question whether it will present
sufficient attraction to the men who
have taken up aviation for the dis
hnction to be won in air fighting.
The Aero club of France up to the
present has Issued 10000 pilot lie
enses and hundreds of military
pilots have not taken out the Aero
clubs license to which they arc en-
titled.
Inquiry among French aces
shows that the majority are too
young to be worrying about the
next phase of life, although some
hope that civilian aviation will Of
fer satisfactory careers.
Lieutenant Rene Fonck, tho ace
of aces, with IS official victories,
has not yet decided what he will do
but may remain in the army. Sub
Lieutenant Nungesser, with "A VIC
tories, has decided to quit the
army. He has received many offers
and probably may 60 to the United
States.
Lieutenant Lemaitrc, after lead

undertaking.

age, who has won II victories.

Sub-Ldeutenant Bourjade, with

Chicago Starts Investigation

country dealer who pays the freight Of
shipping is allowed a margin of
cents. There is loss in Gambling Of
cents and the cost of cartons
amounts to 1c a dozen. The retailers
profit is given as cents a dozen. -. -
J. w. Low, president of the Chicago
today said the present high prices
were the result of market conditions
and denied a charge Of proateering by
either the producers or dealers.
''The high prices Of butter and eggs
are explained by decreased .produc-
ton; increased demand because of
conditions growing out of the war and
the high cost of feed, labor, freight
and every other item of expense. The
government last summer COM
mandeered sixty per cent Of all but :
ter in. storage in this country for the
army and navy. In addition there has
been a large increase in the amount
OF butter exported to the starving ma
tions of Europe. AS a result there is
IS per cent less butter in storage to-
day than there was this time last
year. There also is decrease in the
amount being produced. Large guam
titles Of eggs have been purchased by
the government for many months and
many thousands of cases have been
shipped abroad. There are from 33
to SO per cent fewer eggs in storage
than at this time last year. Strictly
fresh eggs are so scarce that they are
worth whatever the producer can get
under present conditions"

tail at 73hc q pound in Chicago and
strictly fresh eggs quoted at 7sc a
dozen to the consumer with prospect
that the price Of both articles will
materially increase before spring,
dealers today discussed the causes re-
sponsible for. the unprecedented high
prices. s,! 5.,.-.
Decreased production and a largely
increased demand due to the war, are
given as the principal causes for pres
ent high prices in the opinion of
dealers. Investigators were informed
that the farmer is receiving nearly so
per cent of the increased. price. The
balance Of the increase is said to be
divided between the manufacturer,
jobber, wholesaler and retailer In

detail Of the industries is mentioned
as another important. factor in the ex-
listing high prices. Representatives of
each department in the production of
the commodities denied they are MAX

that on butter the farmer Is receiving
5shc a pound or profit Of about
4 nc a pound. The jobber is said to

Difficulties in the northern and south

Madame Schwimmer continued, that

Hungarians, both extremists and

Walker D. Hines, who for months
has been associated with Mr.. Nc
Adoo in directing the multitudinous
affairs of the rail carriers under gov
ernment control.
Mr.. Hines when he entered gov
ernment service was chairman of the
executive committee and board Of di-
rectors of the Santa Fe railway. He
is considered one Of the ablest rail-
way men in the country.
1t is said to be the determination
Of President Wilson entirely to di-
vorce government management of
the railways from all taint Of politics.
He is understood to believe that the
naming of Mr.. Hines will at once
dissipate any fear of political
manipulation.
The likelihood of the naming of
Bernard Baruch or Secretary of
Agriculture Houston to be secretary
of the treasury and of Mr. Hines to
be director general Of railways is in
creased by the necessity for haste on
the part of the president in filling
these posts Of such transcending i'm
portance. The vacancies must be
filled before the departure Of the
president for Europe.

SUCCESSORS of Mr.. McAdoo as head of
the treasury. They are David Hous-

While not officially confirmed in
circles closest to the treasury as we'll
as the White House, it is said that
Mr.. McAdoo has urgently recon-
mended to the president the naming
Of Baruch as the new secretary of
the treasury. The work of Mr.. Baruch
as chairman of the war industries
board is drawing to close. This
position, one Of infinite difficulties. in
the opinion of Washington, Mr..
Baruch filled with success.
Mr.. Baruch has been intimately
associated with Mr.. McAdoo during
his term of office. He knows prob

handling the treasury department
