Washington, Nov. 21.--Increases in
telephone rates ranging from IA to SO
per cent ordered in certain sections by
Postmaster General Burleson, through
state utility commissions, are drawing
sharp protests from some of the state
authorities. This was disclosed today
after the postoffice department had
made public a telegram sent to the
Oregon public service commission in
response to a complaint that the
method of making increases there was
irregular.
Without going into the question of
his power to fix rates, Mr.. BurlesOn
asked the Oregon commission to con-
slider the new schedule there seregu-
larly filed so that there may be on
interruption of service or loss to the
government, and that employees may
not be deprived of increased wages
already granted.
w. H. Lamar, solicitor for the de-
partment and member of the fire con-
troll committee, said today that the
increases complained all had been au-
thoriZed after the companies con-
cerned had estimated additional rev.
enues need to meet increased labor
and material costs, He said no state
utilities commission had as yet refused
to allow any of the increases asked,
and that consequently the question of
whether the postmaster generals au-
thority was sufficient to establish the
increased rates in the face of state
and municipal opposition had not been
passed upon.
All increases are regarded as tenta-
tive and provisional, Mr.. Lamar adj
ded, to be definitely settled by the
rate standardization and unification
plans being worked out.
In his message to the Oregon COM
mission, Mr.. Burleson said after being

ton will be the same journalistic

cellar as he was in Denver and that

A statement in book by Colonel
House that President Wilson would
receive credit in the United Stat es for
winning the war also was referred to
by Mr.. sherman, who protested
against 1t and said the soldiers

Urging that the senate be given
representation at the peace confer
ence, Senator Sherman said 5000
miles of ocean would separate the
president from the senate, which
would receive no information relative
to the peace treaty until it had been
signed.

Washington, Nov. 21.-President
Wilson today signed the emergency
agricultural appropriation bill with
It's legislative rider providing for ma
tlonal prohibition from next July |
until the American army is demobil-
lied. .s,
The prohibition amendment to the
agricultural measure caused a long
flght in the senate. Officials of the
shipping board opposed it's adoption
on the ground that taking beer from
shipbuilders would make for discon-
tent which would be reflected in
their work.
Secretary Daniels, who was called
before the senate committee holding
the hearing, combatted this theory,
saying that after sale of intoXicants
around naval establishments had been
stopped the output of the workmen
increased. He referred especially to
the Mare Island, Calf, navy yard.
Unless the presidential proclama-
ton under the food control act is re-
scinded, the prohibition amendment
will affect only the manufacture of
wine, for the brewing of all beer must
cease December l under the presi-
dents proclamation. The manufac-
ture of whiskey was stopped soon
after the nation entered the war. I'm
der the amendment the man
ufacture of wine will cease
next May ], and should brewing of
beer be allowed to continue after De-
cember 1. it also would stop May l.
under the new law
After next June 80 no Intoxicating
liquors of any kind may be sold in
this country for beverage purposes
except for export. until such time as
the president by proclamation de-
clares rehabilitation completed.
The amendment also prohibits the
importation of any intoxicating bev-
erages into this country from the
time the bill is approved by the presi-
dent until the rehabilitation of the
army is completed.

Senator Cummins Of Iowa asked
whether the plan of the president to

emergency that had something to do
with the assumption of the cable

Il cannot see" Senator Kellogg re-
piled, "how the presidents visit can
IN any way have made an excuse for

The Minnesota senator recalled
that when the wire control resolution
