High Prices Coming Down.

The sensational break in the price of live
hogs may or may not be sign of general
recession in prices. 1t probably is. The $23
hog was an anomaly, not justified even by war
conditions. The SIS hog was profitable during
the early period of the war; and at $lS returned
a liberal margin to the producer, who was al
lowed the extra profit to stimulate production.
Following the close of the war came the sudden
jump to $23, purely the result of speculative
movement. Europe was expected to take our
surplus pork product at any price, and conse-
quently home users were forced to pay on that
basis. Europe still wants the meat but the
factor Of ability to pay" pointed out by The
Bee weeks ago, controls absolutely, and Europe
can not pay, neither can Americans When
pork products get back to a basis where con-
sumption may be resumed, other commodities
are likely to follow, and generally lower level
of prices will be established. 1t is too early to
justify conclusions as yet, but the tendency is
in favor of the consumer for tine moment.

HOUSE OUTLINES STEPS TObEG|N
 NATIONS

PARIS, Ancil 30.-(By the Asso- ciated Press)-Plans for launching the league of nations were fairly definitely outlined at a luncheon which Colonel E. M. House gave today to Sir James Eric Drummond. the secretary general of the league, Lord Robert Cecil and others.
 The plans are divided into three main stages;
 First, preparatory details, which will be worked out at headquarters to be established at London during the con- ing summer: second, the inaugural meeting of the league at Washington next october, under the presidency of President Wilson; third. the perman- ent establishment of the league at Geneva, next fall or wi;:ter.
 The preparatory details will be in the hands of the committee of nine designated by President Wilson's reso- lution before the last plenary session of the conference. Colonel House, Lord Robert Cecil and the Greek premier, Eliptheros Venizelos, will be among the members.
 Leon Bourgeois probably will not be the French member, as he does not speak English. anc most of the pro- ceedings will be in that language. l Colonel House, with q considerable | staff, will remain in Europe after the l conference closes President Wilson l will fix the date of the first meeting.

EUROPE At a Glance
By the Associated Press

Official details concerning the latest phases of the deliberations of the council of three of the peace conference in Paris. are somewhat obscure
 It is known, however. that the Jap anese question concerning Kaio- Chau has been settled.
 The terms of the agreement. accord ; ing to unofficial advices. involve the surrender by Germany of kiao- Chau to Japan, but in due course, Japan will transfer this stronghold on the Shan tung peninsula to Chau.
 It is also stated that the council of three has looked with favor upon the request of the Belgians for an immed fate advance on their shares of in- demnity, which Germany is to pay in reparation for damages.
 Therefore the only outstanding prob lem of great importance before the council, apparently, is that due to the claims of Italy to Plume and the Dal- n1atian region. There is no evidence as yet of the prospect Of an immediate compromise being offered by either side to the controversy.
 Limitations have been received 1T Paris that overtures for resumption oi the conferences on tke disputed ques- tions would receive every attention and would not be unacceptable il Rome, but it is said in Pars that the prevailing sentiment among the dele gates of France, Great Britain and tn, United States is opposed to requesting the Italian delegates to return. It has been added, however, that i the Italians should evince a disposition to give up their claim to Plume. ana accept President Wilson's suggestion on the controversy, the president, il the interest of harmony, doubles could make suggestions which woul' permit of a continuation of the discus sions without sacrifice of dignity b, the Italians.
 l President Wilson and other member of the council are declared to be unwil ling to concede Plume to the Italians. 1 The expected attack on the sovie 1 forces at Munich has not begun.

Baker, Texas, charged with sending a telegram directly to the adiutant general of the army, asking that the men in the regiment who en- listed for the war, be discharged and sent home.
 On April 23 a number of the engin- ering unit held meeting near the camp and dcided to send the following telegram to the adjutant general direct, without consulting their superior of ficers
 We, emergency men of the eighth mounted engineers, Camp Baker, Texas, consider the period of emergency is over and that our further retention in the army means an unnecessary sacri- flee on our part. We respectfully re- quest the adjutant general that he i'm l. mediately consider the advisability of discharging US.
 (Signed) Emergency Men, Eighth En-
 gineers."
 The men arrested are Corporal Rob- ert West, Memphis, Tenn; Wagoner David Sullivan, Chicago; Privates Lyle Maas, Minneapolis; Steve Bowman England; Si Holt and William Moeller Liberal, Kas.
 The men of the engineering unit de- nied reports that they had mutinied and said their only intention was to obtain their &,Scharges as soon as possible. District officers denied tonight the men under arrest were in solitary con 1 finement, and said the only breach oi military law they had committed was in taking their applications for dis charge up over the heads of their com manding officers. They added that the affair stated over a misunderstandins of circular No. 77, issued some time ago, stating that in extreme necessity or in cases of sickness, men could DC I discharged from the service. This the f officer said was misinterpreted that al | men who had employment could be dls' i charged. No further trouble is antlcl' pated the district officers said.

DISCOVER BOMBS IN NEW YORK

WASHINGTON. April 30.-Discovery Tn New York today of sixteen bombs. each put together by experts. resulted tonight in general warning to govern ment employees to be on watch for what authorities here believe to be an an- archistc plot to spread terror through the country
 While steps were taken immediately to deal with the situation postoffice officials frankly admitted that there was absolutely no means of telling ex- actly how many bombs might have been deposited in the mails. Because of the character of the men to whom the packages were addressed, the thought of the authorities centered in one motive. In a general way, the at tempt on the lives of cabinet members. justice of the supreme court of the United States a governor, two mayors and others was linked with recent agi- tation and discussion of the question of after the-war immigration. But the authorities could not altogether agree on this. as the reason behind the wholesale attempts at dstruction of life. information Disquieting Word reached investigators here that Gimbel Brothers, New York, whose mailing tags were on each package, had declared the tag a forgery. No effort was made to disguise the fact that this l information was disquieting, for it meant, officials said, in the event of a wholesale mailing of bombs, that many would reach their destinations | bearing the mark of other firms, which would make the work of preventing de- ! livery all the more difficult. Although | the public was cautioned as to the l opening of strange packages, the de- 1 departments job to get them before l if all the internal machines put in the mails have not been recovered, it is the departments jog to get them before delivery.
 Every branch Of the bureau of com 1 munications was set to work to this end. starting with the men who take mail from street boxes and ending witt ! the carriers who deliver it at office anC ] home. Not content with these precau- tions, steps were taken in Washington to safeguard government officials tt whom other dangerous bombs might b, sent Personal orders went to all de partments including the courts, so tha by no possible chance will strange bun dies pass the net spread out to seiz' them.
