Another noticeable change in the

because the produce had been
covered" by grocers.
At the Verbeke street market the
supplies were about the same for
retail purposes but q number of
growers who had been using the
public market for wholesale pro-
duce warehouse did not have their
stands filled because of the fore
stalling law which prohibits anyone
from buying produce in the markets
and reselling it. Prices at the up
town market were practically the
same until customers began to ar
rive in large numbers, and then the
dealers started to cut prices down.
Many Cooperate
Some of them said they did not
want any produce on hand when
the market closed because they
would either have to take 1t home
or try to dispose OF 1t at wholesale
prices to grocers after the market
closed tonight, or take it to the
stores and endeavor to sell it.
Some of the dealers are endeavor-
ing to help enforce the forestalling
law. One of them had three chick
ems on sale and when asked the
price for all of them, Immediately
questioned whether the prospective
purchaser intended to use them or
resell them. Upon being assured
that they would be used by the buy
er, the sale was made. Similar in
stances were observed by the au-
thorities.
1t was suggested to-day that as
the forestalling ordinance was pass
ed in an effort to bring down the
prices of foodstuffs in the city mar
kets, food inspectors should be
given police powers so that in max
ing their trips through the houses
they could make arrests If they
saw any violations. It is believed
that Council may be urged to pass
an ordinance giving the food in
spectors this power.
No Price Fixing
If there was any attempt at price
fixing in the early market hours II
could not have had much effect be-
cause at Z o'clock the prices from
the same stands showed q slight
drop over the figures which were
asked at 5 in the morning and by
0 o'clock there was a sharper de-
cline.
Butter and eggs sold at almost
the same prices which have pre-
vailed this season. At the Hill
market the fourth consecutive at
tempt on Saturday market day to
force eggs to SIS cents was made
by a number of dealers. The house
wives refused to buy and in an hour
the prices came back to SO and so
cents. At Chestnut street practical
ly every one asked SO cents, with
two selling fresh eggs at 4S cents.
At Verbeke street so cents was the
prevailing price. Butter ranged
from 62 to 65 cents a pound, with
creamery butter selling at 65 and
6S.
Corn Comes Down
Corn at the Hill market was 80
and 35 cents a dozen early in the
morning, but came down slightly
later. At Chestnut street it was 25
and 80 cents, but the supply in
creased when more growers arrived
with quantities, the prices went
down to 10 to 20 cents.
Apples for cooking and baking
were 10 to 20 cents quarter peck,
the latter price being quoted at q
number of stands in the Hill market,
sweet apples were Is and 20 cents
"a quarter peck.
Green beans, both corn and string

PLANS TO RAISE STATUS (

Mrs. Robins Will Introduce Reso.

A resolution proposing reorganiza-
ton of the American household to put
domestic service upon a footing toll

ganiZation of domestic workers them
selves to demand fair wages and good
working conditions. will be intro
duced at the convention of the Ma
tional women's Trade Union League
in Philadelphia June 2-7. Mrs. Ray
mond Robins, national president of
the league, will introduce the reso-
luton.
Under present conditions" says
Mrs. Robins. 1.-The working woman re-
sists the suggestion that she seek do
nestle service as a means of liveli-
hood. and resents the efforts to draw
or force her into it. She is tired hav-
ing this ill-paid, trying form of man.
ual labor urged upon her as pre-emi-
choice when she knows that in al
most any other calling a woman re-
ceives not only better pay, but more
consideration as human being. and
has perhaps chance of advance
ment.
above all, the working woman bit
terly resents what she sees as a
tendency to squeeze her out of the
better paid jobs where she is COM
peting fairly with men. in order to
force her to resort to the kitchen for
a livelihood. When despairing house
holders cry What is to become of the
American home if we can get no serv-
ants? the working woman demands
to know Whose American home
yours or mine? For after all the
working women are more numerous
than their wellto do sisters whose
plants are heard in clubs and in the
newspapers. And domestic service
means no home at all for the domestic
worker"

NEW LEVEL OF PRICES
ESTABLISHED BY WAR
Otto H. Kahn Thinks Reduction
Will Not Be Made in
Many Years.

Prices will not be lowered materially
for a number of years, If at all. IL the
opinion of Otto H. Kahn Of the Arm
of Kuhn, Loeb & Co. of New York,
according to q communication sent by
him to Secretary of Labor William B.
Wilson. Mr.. Kahn says the war has
brought a new level of prices, the ex-
istence of which must be recognized.
How Prices Are Determined.
prices are determined in the main
by volume of production, of consump-
ton and of the circulating medium
that is. currency, bank credits, etc"
Mr.. Kahn has explained in a letter
to the Secretary.
After the civil war. the return Of
prices to the pre-war level though 1t
took thirteen years to accomplish,
was immensely aided by the develop
ment of entirely novel methods Of pro-
duction in the shape of new forms OF
machinery and new kinds Of business
organization. No one will seriously
contend that the possibilities Of the
cheney or novel methods in production
and distribution are likely even to
approach those which came between
1865 and 1S90-periods which marked
the Transformation of our entire bust
ness structure from hand methods to
machine methods-from pound meth
DDS to machine methods
Demand Will Continue, He Says.
I'm view of the vast destruction
wrought by the war and in view of
the accumulation of the demand for
many things which could not be sup
piled during the war, demand in many
fundamental lines is bound to be
large and urgent for some time to
come. The credit expansion and cur
rency imitation of the leading coun-
tries of the. world, including our own,
during the past Ave years has been on
an entirely unprecedented scale. The
process of contraction and deflation to
the extent that it is possible and like
ly to beapproved by public opinion
will take many years"

WANT SALVATION
ARMY Center HERE
Committeeman Are Working
to Have Headquarters
Moved to Washington.

Headquarters for the Salvation Army
future be established in Washington. A
drive to bring this to pass will be made
by the executive committee directing
the drive in this city for the home
service fund. Chairman Earl Goodwin
and some of his associates will in the
near future go to New York and confer
| with Commander Evangeline Booth and
her cabinet.
| Adjutant B. C. Rhodda at q luncheon
| Saturday said about IS per cent OF
| the officers of the organization In the
tional headquarters from New York to
Washington. The Salvation Army man
| said this is the logical place from which
| the various activities of the organize
ton should be directed and he intimated
| that Gen. Bramwell Booth and other
plan.
Believes S. A. Wants to Come Here.
| II am sure the Salvation Army in the
| main in this country wants headquarters
moved to Washington. and the spirit
shown here in connection with this drive
is the best evidence that this is the very
place from which to conduct the mani
| fold enterprises of the organizat ton, -
said .Adjutant Rhodda.
certainly / shall recommend that
the transfer be made and l am quite
| sure that thousands of my associates
in Salvation Army work will indorse
my views"
The team captains cheered loudly
when Mr.. Goodwin proposed the trans
fer of headquarters. Representatives
of the Chamber Of Commerce and the
Commercial Club said they would be
glad to cooperate in the plan to make
Washington the home of Miss Booth
and her cabinet.
Could Do Better Work.
why should we not have the head
quarters of the Salvation Army here?'
said Julius Peyser, "Washington has
about forty-eight national organiza-
tions whose activities are directed
from this city and the Salvation
Army should be added to the list.
The Salvation Army would be able to
do more efficient, more effective and
more aggressive work II it should
move all its machinery to Washing
ton than by keeping headquarters in
New York. I think the idea a fine
one"
Chairman Of the Board Of District
Commissioners Louis BroWnlow said
he thought the suggestion that Sal
walton Army headquarters be estab-
lished in Washington an excellent one.
This view was Endorsed by former
Commissioner Henry B. F. Macfar-
land and others.
