PROFITEERING IN WOOL
AND SHOES is CHARGED
Council Of Defense Alleges Conscious
Curtailment OF PrOduction-Rea-
son for High Prices.

Washington, Sept. High costs
OF living which the government now
is seeking to combat are due prim-
arily to the curtailment in the pro-
duction Of nearly all commodities,
boarding, profiteering and initiating OF
currency, the council OF national de-
Tense said in an exhaustive report
sent to Congress. The report was
made public today through Secre-
tary kaker, chairman OF the council.
Suggestions of the council for meet
ing :he situation include stimulation
or production; repression OF hoard
ing and proflteering; improvements
in the methods of distribution and
marketing and tho dissemination of
more exact news concerning probable
future national requirements.
Gross prOfiteering in the wool and
shoe industries through conscious
curtailment of production was alleg-
ed in the report. The shortage of
housing accommodations was attri-
huted to a shortage in building ma
terial. caused by uncertain conditions
and to labor disputes. and the report
said the shortage probably would
continue for some time to come" "
A national standard of living high
err than that existing during the war
or before can be maintained. the re-
port said. If production is placed on
an efficiency basis. 9

SOUTHERN MEN OBJECT
TO LICENSING PACKERS
Attacks Proposals In Kenyon and
kcndrick Bills to Regulate
Packing Industry.

Washington, Sept. 1.-Delegations
OF southerners, introduced by Sena-
tor Shields and Representative Hull.
Tennessee. attacked proposals in the
Kenyon and Kendrick bills to regul-
ate the packing industry, during hear
ings today before the senate agri-
cultural committee and taking the
position that the southern states
are just beginning to development of
live stock, they asked the committee
to refrain from disturbing the pack
ind industry.
We've just gotten into stock pro-
ducing in central Tennessee" said
II. r.. Powers, vice-president of the
Nashville stockyards committee. that
territory is just now turning out
about s20,000,OOO annually in stock.
We've had wonderful help from Swift,
Armour and the rest. We couldn't
have cleared the receipts if they had
not been there to take the stuff out
OF our hands. Getting away from cot
ton, our producers would be totally
devoid of a place to find a market
for their stock, if it were not for the
bigger concerns.
They've put in packing houses in
Georgia. and in Florida. too. We our
selves are engaged in organizing a lit
tie independent packing concern. but
we are now getting close to Chicago
prices from the packers.
"lf you are going to license the
packing business, we think you ought
to license most other lines, too"
Henry NJ Hood, OF Mount Sterl-
ing, Ky, voiced similar objections.
I'VE are satisfied with marketing
conditions" he said. The packers
come TO our farms and buy our cattle.
if there is a combination. make il a
penitentiary offense and prosecute.
but don't weight them down with
licenses. During the war il was all
right, but now let the country alone
and let it get back to earth. The
packers are a great blessing. You
can't find a man for $4,000 a year
in this country who knows enough to
sit down here as commissioner and
control all this business.
After hearing a number of western
stockmen, the committee adjourned
: until Tuesday.

TO STOP PROFITEERING
Attorney General Palmer Sug-
gests Fair Price Commissions
and Committees as Remedy for
Present Situation.

Washington, Sept. New I'm
petus was given the governments
campaign to reduce the cost of living
at conferences here which assured
the closest cooperation between fed
eral and state authorities.
Six governors, Gardner, Missouri,
Milliken, Maine, Burnquist, Minneso-
ta. Compbell. Arizona, Sproul, Penn
sylvania, and Cooper, South Carolina,
and Lieutenant Governor Mcdowell.
Of Montana, representing the national
conference Of governors. spent sew
eral hours studying Che situation with
Attorney General Palmer and then
called at the white house to offer
President Wilson the full machinery
of the states in the effort to restore a
normal price level.
AS a result there was greater opti-
mism in the capital over the outlook
than has been evident in many days.
With the far-reaching state organi-
cations carrying the message OF econ
omy and increased production into
every country and aiding the federal
authorities in bringing to justice
hdarders and profiteers, officials be-
lieved excellent results could be oh
tanned in the next 80 days.
After our meeting with the Presi-
dent and the attorney general. the
committee of governors announced
certain facts are clear:
"1-That all the people OF the ma
tion and all organizations should i'm
mediatefy cooperate for the purpos.
OF increasing the production of the
necessaries of life.
"2-That economy in consumption
and care I'm purchasing the neces.
saries of life are equally important
with production.
"-That every agency of the fed
eral and state governments should CO.
operate forthwith to prevent prof
teering.
The attorney general has assured
us that he will pursue under existine
and proposed laws all profiteers.
The suggestion of the attorney gen
eral that fair price commissioner be
appointed in each of the states anC
fair price committees in the differen
localities Of the states upon the nom
nations of the governors, was en-
dorsed
While the attorney general express
ed a desire to reply upon the assist
ance of community efforts in the di
rection of the elimination OF profteer
ing, though local fair price commit
tees, he gave assurances that wheI
such efforts were not forthcomin!
and results were not satisfactory. hi

tions directly.

COST GOVERNMENT LITTLE
Says His Scheme Would Cost
Approximately S5.0O0.OO0.O 900
-CharacterizeS Road Magnat-
es as Corruptionists.

Washington. Sept. William
Jennings Bryan laid before the
house interstate commerce committee
his dual plan of state and federal
ownership of railway lines as a solu-
tion of the railroad reorganization
problem. In doing so, the former sec
| retary OF state denounced private
ownership of the railroads as indeCen-
sible and intolerable and character
lied railway magnates as political
| corruptionists.
I'VE have never tried government
ownership" declared Mr.. Bryan, re-
ferring TO the railroad administra-
tton "A subsidized newspaper new
er thinks to tell that the government
took over the railroads when the
private owners could not run them.
The government has been only in
temporary control, and the roads in
the hands of those who wanted 10
see government ownership fall so
they could get the roads back"
Advocates Trunk Line system.
Mr.. Bryan advocates that the fed
eral government own skeleton
trunk line system, reaching into every
state, which in turn would own the
other carriers within the state bound
aries. His plan, he estimated, would
cost the government four or five bill
lion dollars, while state ownership
, could be decided by the people, who
might decide for temporary private
, ownership.
The commotte also heard s. Davies
Warfeld who said his railroad plan
| for a minimum interest return of
per cent on rail securities through
mandatory adjustment of rates by the
interstate commerce commission was
in principle endorsed by so ,0C0, 900

in railroad securities" Representa-
! tives of the coastwise shipping com
| panies urged that port-to-port rates

Arguing against private monopoly,
Mr.. Bryan said the railroads must be
| considered as a monopoly, and that
no one can defend a private mono
poly unless he has so much stock in
it that il silences his conscience" r
