NASMYTH ADVOCATES SALE
 OF WHEAT AT SI.25 BUSHEL

Dr. George Nasmyth of Washing ton, formerly secretary of the Food Administration on the wheat supply
 committee, spoke at the meeting of
 the unemployed held at the State
 street CsGino on Saturday, He dis
 cuSsed t!-e high cost of living and ad-
 vanced scheme for the reduction of
 food prices which is to be presented
 in the form of a bill to Congress. Dr.
 NaySrnyth outlined the effect that the
 price of wheat has upon the other
 food supplies, and the reasons for the
 fixing of the price of this staple by
 the government. ''In order that more
 corn and less wheat should be used in
 this country and thereby release more
 of our availagle supply for feeding
 Europe, the government decided to set
 the price of wheat at $2.20 per ibushel,"
 said Dr. Nasmyth. Since the signing
 of the ar1nistice enormous stores of wheat in Australia, Argentina and the
 Indies have been released and it is no considerable study Of the situation, would advocate the buying of all wheat by the government at the price that was paid for it by all dealers, $220 per bushel. This wheat should then be sold for the world
 market price of $1.25. The loss to the government could be charged up to war costs. If the government could spend billions of dollars for the pros ecution of war why not spend one billion for reconstruction? The low 1 price of wheat products lowers other

 and clothing; this speeds up produc- ton in other industrial branches, and
 prosperity inevitably follows" The effect of the automobile upon the welfare of the farmers of the
 Northwest was outlined by Dr. Ma
 smyth. He gave a delightful account of the methods of the farmers of that
 region. from which he has recently re- turned, in overcoming the middleman.
 He styled the middlenan as robber barons who were the real cause of the enormous prices of farm products paid by the consumers.
 Robert Fechner of Boston, member of the general executive committee of the International Association of Machinists, spoke of the need of or
 ganizatton for the working classes. He spoke of the unexpected effect on labor of the signing of the armis- tice, and the total unpreparedness of the government to handle the situa- ton. He advocated government own
 ership of public utilities, the eight hour day for all industries. and strict
 regulation of child labor laws. | Samuel Iavit, business agent of the 1 local branch of the MachiniSts' asSo- 1 citation. spoke on the necessity of en-
 forcing the A hour a week schedule
 as the means of giving employment
 to many who were idle at present
 He also asked the workers to insist
 on the recognition of Lincoln's birth | day as a legal holiday.

Paris, Feb. IT. - George Nicoll Barnes, Labor member of the British delegation to the Peace Conference, spoke as follows at the plenary ses- sion yesterday after the League of Nations covenant had been read by President Wilson:
 INT. President: As representing
 especially the working folk of Great
 Britain, just want to make a very
 f.w observations. I think l know the
 n ind of the British people on this
 question of a League of Nations. and
 I can assure you that it is one Of eager expectancy.
 '"The people of Great Britain have shouldered their burden during the war, but through all it's struggles and sacrifices they have looked eagerly forward to the day when aggressive war shall be no more. That day Is dawning, and, l believe, has been hastened by the work of the last month. To my mind, MT. President, 1 there are three outstandin prin- | ciples in this document which, l be- l lieve, will stand out conspicuous1y as 1 landmarks in the history of man. | kind.
 First of all, the substitution of an
 altruistic principle for imperialism | and violence in the adjustment of in | terationa1 affairs. Nations whfcf suffered and sacrificed in the acquisi | ton of territory have agreed to th' overseeship of the League of Nations
 ia the administration of that terri
 tory. They have further agreed to thu Il principle that the welfare and assen of the people shall be the determinin. consideration in it's administration. There is ill this agreement, MT President, to my mind, a great ad vance in the applicatio of the prin ciple of moral idealisnl, ard I ca only say that I believe that that wi strike the ina gtnatfon of the world Second, they have agreed in prin s ctple on the reduction of armament to a point of national safety, as pre- scribed by the League of Nations I 1 This I believe to be the essential fea \ lure of the condition of permaneT s peace. If there be an excess of gur a there will always be a chance of thel being fired off. I am therefore gla S that in this document provision H made for the reduction of armament a thereby, I believe, lessening the ris S of war and easing the economic bu # den upon the people.
 The third is a principle to whiC - I wish to call the attention of Il
 signatories to this document. Th' N have agreed to recognition of u facture of armaments, although, f

my part, I should like to have seen
 a more robust declaration in favor of
 the abolition of private >-rms ma king.
 Abolition, I believe is a step which .
 will ultimately be found necessary, ?
 and I further hope that the Executive
 and means by which private profit
 Council may be able to devise ways
 may be eliminated, and I am per
 fectly sure that nothing would be more welcome to the minds of the working folk. 'There are just one or two things, MT. President, which, to my mind, might have been more explicit, and | which, I believe. will have to be graftedeon to a League of Nations as 1 the idea of world unity becomes more widely accepted. Let me mention 1 one. I am afraid that when the time comes for the enforcement of decrees
 If ever 1t does come, which God for 1 bid-there may be delay and con-
 fusion on the part of the league.
 What I am afraid of is that an l aggressive nation might again try to break through and win it's way to it's | object before the forces of mankind 1 can be mobolized against 1t. There
 fore, should have been glad to have
 seen more provision for the nucleus of
 an international force which would be ready to strike against any aggres- sor. This, I know, cuts into the idea . of the sovereignty of nations, but I hope that there may be future discus : sions on the part of affiliated states , as to how they can adjust their na- t tional life so as to admit of a greater 2 degree of cooperation than there is
 in this document.
 . Finally, I gladly note the inser- = ton of a clause providing for the : formation of international charters of I labor. Hitherto, nations had en- l deavored to protect themselves
 against low-patd labor by the impo- = sitfon of tariff barriers, I hope we s shall in the future, under the author = ity of the League of Nations, seel 5. and find a better way of abolishins = low-paid labor altogether.

RAINY DAY APPAREL
 OF DISTINCTION

There is no doubt that the rainy day costume has become a fashion in a certain set of women. It is a sub stitute for uniform. It is a con- tinuance of the desire to look like the soldiers. It lifts from the com monplace. So many women have swaggersd down the streets in khaki coats and short skirts. Sam Brown belts, even full hipped brooches, put tees and full skirted coats, with caps, military insignia and army boots, with whips and canes in their hands, that they cannot retire into femininity at the call of a bugle. They have heard the cry Cease firing" but they do not wish to cease dressing in a mili- tary manner.
 Consequently they have got up all kinds of clever costumes for days of wet weather, and these give them a chance to keep away from velours and velvetesn from lace collars and velvet hats. These are the women who look with scorn upon the theory that old clothes should be worn on | the days when umbrellas are needed AS the Parisienne has made a cult of her umbrella, so the smart Amer ican woman has made a cult of her | wet weather outfit. She includes the l | 1t.
 l There is the rubberized cape, fol
 rainy days. Now, it can cover the olC | clothes that are dug out from the | corners of the closet, because it is st
 enveloping that it matters little wha
 is beneath it. 1t is of gray rub ] berized cloth, and it opens on eacf | shoulder, carrying out one of tn | tricks tried with success on fur cape in December. The buttons gre O the material and the collar is the kint 1 that Sarah Bernhardt made famou
 thirty-five years ago. There is an ob | long cap of the same rubberized cloth 1 end it often has an oiled quill in l which glistens in the rain and give | ! good account of itself.
 l By the way many of these new cap | have Q long hrim at the back whicl | tets as a shield to the back of the necl | md sends the rain away from tn | ihoulders. You have seen this briI | II the hats of fishermen on tn | caches at Gloucester.

to the rain. Orange, scarlet, purple and henna Things are used. An um- brella is not necessary with this gar ment, but a woman uses it when it
 matches the gray of the cape and the knob on the handle matches the lining.
 One woman turns herself out on the street whenever her best clothes are inadvisable in a beige colored leather suit made by a sporting house. The
 skirt is narrow and short, slit in
 the back, then Tapped over to allow room for walking The trench coat is cut double breasted, with large bundle pockets and straight stiff cuffs in which a woman now places her purse and handkerchief. The cap, the umbrella and the knitted muffler which goes twice about the neck are 1 in dark red. The double row of but | tons in front are made of leather, | and tan shoes with rubber soles and 1 heels are laced up as high as the 1 new regulations will permit.
 i Leather is costly, and every wom-
 an does not feel that she can indulge 1 in it, but heavy brown tweed, which l stands the rain in an admirable man ner is used as a substitute by another ! well dressed woman. This has a
 short skirt heavily stitched at the
 hem, and the old blouse, which looks like jacket, goes over the shoulders, is fastened at each side of the chest 1 and has a muff1er as an attached col i lar. The buttons on this suit are of | leather, and the loops that go over them are of stitched tweed. There is I 8 flat cap of brown leather, and the high shoes have no heels, but thick extension soles and leather faces.
 There are women who cling to their
 old suits and frocks for certain occa-
 sions. Nothing can divorce them from these garments as long as they hold together. Habit of mind compeIs these
 women to use these clothes for una- brella days, but the necessity fol warmth may compel them to get 2
