CUT
PRICES I'm PARIS
League Forces Average Reduc-
tion of 20 Per Cent. in
Food Costs.
MOVEMENT is SPREADING
Speedy Reductions Made When
Retailers Face Facts Of
Initial Charges.
MOVEMENT Is SPREADING
BIZ the Associated Press.

PARIS. Aug. 1l.-Success Of the Con-
sumers League movement, organized
In the Montmartre district and spread
ing throughout the city now, was indi-
Gated by an average reduction of 20
per cent. on provisions sold in the
market places yesterday. The spread
of the movement, it was announced
to-day, has resulted in a decision to
try to establish a central organization
to coordinate the various leagues and
to systematic the price supervision
over markets unofficially exercised by
the league representatives.
The Consumers League representa-
tives, profiting by their experience,
brought into play during yesterdays in
spections of markets a knowledge of
Wholesale prices. These costs were
made the basis of demands upon various
retailers to lower their prices and re-
suited in reductions that frequently
amounted to so per cent One retailer
Offering heads OF caulifiower at S.25
francs each, after listening to the
leagues inspectors, decided to sell them
at one franc each.
Some Of the heaviest reductions were
made on fish and vegetables, although
the prices of butter and eggs also were
lowered. g
The various leagues, like the Mont
marte organization, are confining their
work to orderly methods and rely upon
moral suasion to get results. Delegates
of the leagues, when they find mer-
chants overchargins. insist on immedi-
ate reductions. Those who refuse to
establish reasonable prices are de-
nounced to the police. Merchants at the
markets covered by the leagues are told
how much the provisions cost and any
excessive profit is made the object Of
prompt protest.
Occasionally disorderly elements have
sought to profit at the expense Of the
novement, but representatives Of the
league took action that caused this ele-
nIent to be suppressed.

RED GAINS DOOM
KOLCHAK RULE
Sudden Victories Promise to
Make BOlsheviki Masters
of Siberia.
JAPANESE HELP SOUGHT
Omsk Fall Seems Near and
Allies Cannot Assist De-
feated Admiral.
Special Despatch to THE Sun.

WASHINGTON, Aug. IL The situa-
turn for the worse. The KolchalS
forces have been obliged to give way
completely before greatly superior
Bolshevik forces, and after a retreat
of about 200 miles it looks as IL OmslS
would fall and the Bolsheviki gain
practical control OF Siberia.
There seems to be no immediate
remedy for the situation, although ad-
mittedly measures to break the Boil
shevik power will have to be under
taken systematically later on, and the
possibilities of Japan sending larger
forces to Siberia are already under
discussion.
The fact that Admiral Kolchak's
forces have not numbered more than
100000 men, with the delay in getting
munitions and supplies to him, have
proved handicap which the anti Dol
shevik forces have not been able to
cope with. Many Of Kolchak's SOL
diers were recruits, and they have had
to meet Bo.shevik veterans reinforced
by former German and Austrian pris-
oners who have Joined forces with the
Bolsheviki.
The fall of Kolchak from power will
make speedy end to President Wilson's
hopes Of coping with the Russian prob
lem by recognizing Kolchak and promIs-
ing to assist him. Actual recognition has
been held In allegiance by the United
States Government, but it has been made
clear that recognition was soon to be
forthcoming and that President Wilson s
plan was to assist Kolchak Latest ad-
vices indicate that outside help can no
longer be of assistance Supplies sent
now would arrive too late and interyen-
ton by the allied forces could not be had
for months at the earliest.
There has been much discussion as to
the effect which the despatch OF a con-
siderable body of Japanese troops wolld
have. The distance to be covered is SO
great, however, that the Toxic Govern
ment Is understood to be adverse to
starting on any such enterprise. The ul-
innate collapse OF Boishevik power in
Russia is accepted as certain. but II is
regarded as very likely that several
years more Of war with the Bolsheviki
will have to precede a definite solution
of the Russian problem.
The American troops in Siberia are hot
involved in Kolchaks retreat.

London Soviet Plot Is
Barred in Seized Papers
By the Associated Press.

I ,ONDON, Aug. 11.-Seditious
documents were seized by the
police to-day in a raid on Acton,
a western suburb of London.
The papers captured dealt with
a suggested seizure of arms and
ammunition from the military
stores by revolutionaries and the
establishment of a Soviet gov
ernment in London.
Important arrests are regarded
as probable in the course of the
week in connection with the
seizure. Other raids, it is said,
are contemplated by the authori-
ties.

BRITISH FOOD BILL
ACCEPTED. 251 TO 8
Passes Second Reading in
Commons Despite Attacks.

LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE House OF Com
mons passed tonight the second read
ing Of the Government BILL providing for
prosecution and penalties for persons
guilty OF profteering. The vote was
251 to 8.
The bill was subjected to severe criti-
cism. mainly on the ground that it had
been hastily considered and would fail
to reach the real offenders. There is
little doubt, however, that the represen-
tation of Sir Auckland Geddes, minister
for national service and reconstruction,
of the bad effect the bill would have on
protiteering and on its disbursement
of exports and encouragement of i'm
ports made a strong appeal to the
House, now under the spell of the grave
warning of ]. Austen Chamberlain, Chan
cellor Of the EXchequer, on the cond-
tion of the nations finance.
This feeling, together with the Labor
party announcement that it would sup
port second reading and amendment of
the bill in committee, was largely re-
sponsible for the fact that only eight
members voted in favor of a motion by
Kennedy Jones to reject the bill. Mr.
Jones objected that the bill would fail
to achieve anything, but would embar-
rass and hamper trading Other MEM
bers accused the Government itself of
fiagrant profiteering In butter and
cheese. John Robert Clynes, former
Food Controller, urged the Government
to withdraw the bill and produce some
thing better. He contended that under
this measure the big offenders at the
top would escape.
Sir Auckland Geddes, in moving the
second reading OF the bill, related the
story OF a North England manufa cturer
who told Sir Auckland: "I am perfectly
ashamed of the profits I am making"
He added that although he had re-
duced prices below those OF his COM
petitors he had made 100000 profit"
Sir Auckland said that shoes which
sold at wholesale at from 1915 to S6.25
retailed, even in the questionable dis
tricts at from Sl25O TO sis

Administration officials considered and
definitely abandoned the idea of reviving
the old wartime food organizations
They likewise are not favorably inclined
to general food licensing system be-
cause of the tremendous permanent Or
ganization which would be required.
Secretary Baker announced that the
War Department would sell army cloth
ing, particularly winter underclothinH,
direct to the public. The plan to be
followed will be similar to the one to be
adopted for disposal OF surplus food ex-
cept that the clothing will be sold
through municipalities instead Of the
parcel post
Mr., Baker expects the food distribu-
ton plans to he in operation within ten
days, the Post Once Department hav-
ing arranged to inaugurate the parcel
post system on August IS. Every house
wife will understand just how she Is to
go about obtaining food supplies offered
by the Government The letter carriers
will bring to each home a list of sup
plies with n price list. The housewife
must give her order to the letter carrier
and pay in advance for what she orders.
In due time her purchases will be de-
livered.
After getting the orders the Postmas-
ter will call on the nearest zone supply
depot to deliver goods ordered and the
distribution will be made to the indi-
viduals In regard to the sale OF food
by municipalities the housewin will
learn where the sale is to be held
through the newspapers and purchase
as she would at any other sale. In
some cases chains OF stores may be
utilized or armories or some central
depots for distribution.

Asked to Aid investigation.

Attorney-General Palmer announced
that he had requested Secretary of Agri-
culture Houston to instruct all meat in
spectors stationed in slaughtering and
packing plants doing an Interstate busi-
ness to furnish United States Attorneys
all information in their possession as to
food boarding, profitepring and other
violations of food control or antitrust
laws The meat inspectors are not to
be asked to volunteer any information,
but to tell what they know when re-
quested by the attorneys.
Widespread response has been re-
ceived by the Department of Justice to
the call to former Federal administra-
tors and other local officers of food ad-
ministrations to cooperate in enforcing
the food law. They will work with spe-
cial agents of the Department of JUS
tice and the various United States At
torneys in compiling information for the
Department on food hoardeys and prof
iteers In many sections of the coun-
try committees are being formed by the
former food administrators to aid in the
investigation and report
1t was made plain that this work does
not constitute in any sense a revival of
the old Food Administration organization.
While the food control act is still in
fierce and the Food Administration tech
nically exists, its organization has been
disbanded for months. The men and
women who are volunteering are to work
for and with the Department of JUS
tice and not as officials OF the Food Ad-
ministration.
