ONLY REMEDY FOR | H. C. IS FOR U. s. TO FIX PRICES
This is Opinion of Former Vice Chairman of War Labor
 Board.

New York, July 26.-Price fixing commissions by the government are the only remedy for the profiteering in the necessities of life, in the opin- ion of William Harmon Black, form- erly vice chairman of the war labor board, who sailed today on six weeks trip to France and England. Mir. Black declared that even men who intended to be fair had been forced into exactions not warranted by the sitution.
 'The pressing problems he said, "is the sky-rocket cost of living. It is all paid by the ultimate consumer. The country believes that nearly ev- erybody who can, is profiteering. Nearly every man is raising the price of everything he sells. + If nothing is done to check this abnor- mal, imitation of prices, the stage will be reached finally where there will be breaking point to relieve the tension"
 Suggesting the remedy of price fix ing commissions MT. Black said that
 as far as the power of the government l to create such commissions was con-
 ccrned, "the same supreme court
 which read the rule of reason into
 the Sherman act could read fair prices into a decision which would val
 idate an act creating price fixing com
 missions.

WILLIAMS MAKES GENERAL DENIAL
 OF ALL CHARGES
ComptrOller Defends Adminis- tration, and Demands Me-
 Fadden Testify.

Washington, July 26.-General de- nial of charges made aaginst nm was entered before the senate bank ing committee today by John Skei- ton Williams, comptroller of the cur rency. MT. Williams defended the administration of his office, denied that he had persecuted the Riggs National bank of this city and char acterized Frank J. Hogan, attorney for bank officials in the Riggs bank case as rapid fire falsifler."
 Samuel Untermyer, New York attorney, will appear in Mir. Williams behalf Monday and the comptroller plans to make a closing statement.
 In defending the treasury's atti- tude toward the Riggs National bank, MT. Williams charged officials of that institution up to 1914, with multi tudinous infractions of the law"
 He charged that millions of dol lars had been loaned by the institu- tion to persons who had no security except the stock they bought on a marginal account and which was highly speculative.
 In closing his statement before the committee, Mir. Williams renewed his request that Representative Nc Fadden of Pennsylvania, appear be- fore the committee to substantiate charges made recently before a house committee that MT. Williams had re. ceived a share of a commission grow. ing out of the disposal of the Arling | 4o,, hOf fn1 c,i% fn 70 department. Chairman Mclean said he had notified the Pennsylvania con. gressman that the hearings would be closed early next week, but added that he was not sure whether the senate committee had authority te summon Mir. McFadden.

(By The Associated Press
 Coblenz, July 24.--Reports of mar riages between American soldiers and German girls have been received at headquarters from various parts of the occupied area during the past few days, but as yet no charges have been filed against any of the men as it is believed most of the marriages were due to misunderstanding regard ing the anti-fraternization laws.

10 THE PEOPLE OF RANKIN
COUNTY

The present method OF distribu-
ting the state public school FUNDS
is unfair, because on state money
alone IN some counties the SCHOOLS
are able to run seven, eight, or
nine months, paying maximum sal
aries to teachers, while in other
counties the schools can hardly be
maintained for four, five, or six
months, paying minimum salaries.
A petition signed by more than
5000 qualified electors of the state
has been filed with the Secretary
of State, calling for an election Oh
a proposed amendment to the con-
StltutlOn, SO as to authorize the
Legislature to appropriate the
states public school fund in such
a way as to equalize public school
terms throughout the state. The
amendment consists Of adding t.
Section 206 as it now stands, the
following sentence: "But the Leg
islatule shall have authority to
make an additional appropriation
to be disbursed by the State Board
of Education in ouch a manner as
to equalize the public school terms
throughout the state. The Legis-
lature tried to remedy this matter
in 1914, but it's acts were declared |
unconstitutional.
On state money alone, the pub
lie schools Of the state should run
for an equal length of time in eve
ry county of the state, as the state
does not owe any more to one child |
than it does to another. | trust |
that every qualified elector of
Rankin County will go to the polls
at the time Of the regular election,
November 4th, and vote for the |
proposed amendment.
Very cordially yours,

State Superintendent of Educa
tion.

GOOD ROADS MEETING AT
JACKSON.

Some years ago there was or
ganized in this statej the Mississ-
lppi Highway Association. For
several years under the guidance
of its president, Mr.. D. j. Morri-
son of Jackson, the Association
performed q great service through
out the state in the promotion of
improved roads and the dissemina-
tion of good roads literature and
information. When the first law
was passed by Congress providing
for Federal aid for road construct
ion and it was found that in order
to share the Federal appropria-
ton, each state must have High
way Department, the Association
eXerted it's best efforts in that di-
rection and assisted in having en-
acted in 1916 the law which Great
ed the mississippi State High
way Department.
The Associations activities ceas-
ced when the war came on and
practically passed out of existence
Mr.. Morrison's failing health has
prevented him from taking an ac-
tive part in matters pertaining to
Good Roads and in reviving the
former Associatin.
Realizing the good that may be
accomplished and by the request
of many good roads enthusiasts
throughout the state, | am there
fore calling upon the Good Roads
advocates of the state Of Mississ-
ippi to come together and have a
great meeting in the Hall of Rep
resentatives in the new Capitol at
Jackson, Thursday October 23nd:
The Officials of the state fair have
kindly consented to designate the
above date as GOOD ROADS
DAY" and visitors will have an
opportunity to visit the great state
fair as we'll as attend the road
meeting.
One of the most important sub
jects to be considered by the new
Legislature will be the laws pro-
viding for a continuation of the
improvements of roads in the
state. Continuation of Federal
AiL for road improvement is as
sured in larger amounts than has
heretofore, but the Federal Bureau
of Public Roads, insists n a revis-
ion of certain of our laws if we are
to receive it's full cooperation and
an adequate State Highway De-
partment must be provided.
In the more progressive States
where substantial improvement
has been made on the roads, State
wide bonds are being issued for
construction, the money beng used
to supplement the Federal Aid and
local funds.
The State Highway Department
has prepared a bill to be introduc-
ed in the Legislature providing for
a State Bond issue of $25, 5,000,000,-
90. This bond is not to be predi-
Gated on an ad valorem tax, but
will be based on the automobile Ii
cense tax, which it is proposed to
fund into bonds.
The automobile tax is now paid
into the road funds of the several
counties of the state, but no sub
stantial benefit is received. ----
Of course the total amount OF
the bonds proposed is not to be
issued at once, nor to be sold at
one time. Perhaps it would be
considered better not to issue
bonds, but to expend annually, on
