PUTTING DOWN
CHICAGO PRICES
Has Brought Much Food Out
of Cover. Government Ap-
propriates Half Million
TO INVESTIGATE PRICES

Washington, Aug. 12.-An appro-
priation of 100000 for investigation
of the increased cost of living by the
Federal Trade commission was ask
ed of Congress today by Acting
Chairman Murdock of the commits
sion in a Letter ia Speaker Gillette.
Funds for the commission already
authorized are insufficiet to conduct
the proposed inquiry, the letter said.
Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. 12.-Concerted
attacks by federal, state and munich
pal officials on the high cost of living
resulted today in lower prices on
many articles of produce to Chicago
consumers. 1t was the first definite
benefit to result from the attacks on
food profiteers and hoarders. With
the decrease in wholesale and retail
prices there came a substantial in
crease in receipts of various articles
of food. It was said that producers
were rushing shipments to the Chi
cago markets in fear of further re-
duction of prices in the near future,
and large quantities of supplies were
being taken out of cold storage ware
houses and offered for sale.
Yesterday the first sale of army
canned goods at two down town de-
partment stores resulted in the dis
posal of O,OOO cans of corn and peas
as a saving of 80 per cent over the
current retail prices.
A budget of household expenses,
purporting to show that $1,918 is
/ the minimum on which a family OF
five can live on for one year, was in
troduced today by Chicago packing
house employees appearing before
, Federal Judge Alschuler, federal me-
diator, with demands for increased
! wages.
| Mrs Anna McWuillen, who lives
near the stock yards, and who pre-
pared the budget, said it was based
on June of this year, and that living
expenses since then have increased
twenty to thirty per cent. She de-
clared table costs were cut to the
lowest possible figure and that the
amount permitted no 1uxuries, vaca-
tions nor savings. Prices last Oc-
tober made the total cost $1,51S, II
was stated.

BREAKING HEART
OF The WORLD
Nothing to the Cold Blooded
New England Senator
Lodge Who
LAUGHED AT THE PHRASE

Washington, Aug 12.-(By the
Associated Press.)-The traditional
decorum of Senate procedure was
upset today by an unusual demon
stration of approval from the CALLER
les following an address by Senator
Lodge of Mass, chairman OF the
Foreign Relations committe, assail-
ing provisions of the League of Ma
tions covenant.
Senator Williams bitterly assail-
led the Foreign Relations chairman,
declaring that in three mont1s of
preparation he had worded his ad-
dress to serve Republican political
ends and to play to the galleries.
1t is understood that reservation
group felt they had good ground
Cor believeing that their proposal
would be accepted by Mr.. Lodge and
that enough Republicans then could
be lined up to insure success of the
movement should the Democratic
leaders give their assent.
The uproar of the Senate Cham
Der followed an equally tumultous
session of the Foreign Relations
Committee at which David Hunter
Miller legal adviser to the League
| of Nations commission at Versail-
les was vigorously questioned by
Republican Senators about genius
'of the league covenant and the
meaning of some of it's provisions.
Clashes over the maner of question

FARMERS CAN SELL CIDER

Washington, Aug. 13.-Hon. Car
+er Glass, Secretary of the Treasury,
and Hon. Lee S. Overman, Junior
Senator from North Carolina, have
accepted invitations to address the
North Carolina Bankers Association
in Winston-Salem, the dates of the
meeting being August 20, 21 and %.
Secretary of the Treasury Glass de-
c1ined the invitation some time ago,
but upon reconsideration yesterday
has notified the North Carolina Sen
ator that he would go to the Twin
City.
The subject of the address of Sec
retary Glass is not known, but un-
doubtedly he will discuss some
phase Of the financial situation as it
relates to the cost of living. Mayor
r. w. Gorrel1 and President James
A. Gray of the North Carolina Bank
ers Association have requested Sena-
, tor Overman to speak on the subject
of the eague of Nations His ad-
dress will be delivered on Aug. %.
/ Apple growers in North Carolina
may convert their products into cider
and offer it for sale without being
subject to confiscation or the prohi-
bition laws. Attorney General A
Mitchell Palmer has ruled that apple
cider is not a vinous liquor and that
the farmer who can afford to pay
the tax when sold as wine or when
bottled ard sold as soft drink can
proceed without any legal resctric
tions.
! The Attorney General in a letter
to Senator Simmons states that con
siderable doubt has arisen as tC
whether cider was vinous liquor bu
that he had already advised the Sec
retary of the Treasury that it is moi
an intoxicating fluid and, therefore
not prohibited by the prohibition
law. One farmer in North Carolin;
made this inquiry: ST have some ap
pies out on my farm and my mar
there is anxious to know whether ht
has a right to make cider of then
and if so, what disposition under th'
present law he may make of same.
Consequently the cider vendor
who is a familiar object on the stree
Icorner of the moderate size town il
North Carolina, may continue to op
crate unmolested the strength of hi
product will not be tested by an.
chemical analysis and the chief of pc
lice will not be permitted to arres
Iihim for the sale of distilled spirits
thus, the old landmark survives.

PROFITEERING BILL PASSES
SECOND READING IN COMMONS

London, Aug. 11.-(By the AS
sociated Press. 1.-The House OF
Commons tonight passed the second
reading of the Government bill
providing for prosecution and PEN
aIties for persons guilty of profiteer-
ing. The vote was 251 to 8.
The chair had been notified that
four motions for rejection of the bill
would be made. The opposition to
the measure is based chiefly on the
argument that the bill while intro
ducing "wasteful and cumbrous ma
chinery," is directed mainly againt
small traders and does not touch
or penalize the powerful interests.
The members in, favor of rejection
are of the belief that the larger con-
Germs are making enormous profits.
