Attorney General Palmer (Which said
the proposed board was unauthorized
by law and the Democratic organiza-
ton which he says has failed ito give
over the business of politics to the
business of government"
Glass, upon reading Peeks state
ment, retorted with counterblast,
sharply aligning himself, Palmer and
Hines on one side of the controversy,
with Secretary Redfield and Peek on
the other side. Indirect opposition TO
Redfields expressed views on Peek,
the statement of Glass says, "the board
was hopelessly committed to an UNI
sound and dangerous policy"
AS for Peels parting statement on
the boards efforts, Glass said: There
is scarcely one accurate assertion or
sane deduction in all the screed.
1t is not inexact to say that
Mr.. Peek has persistently and consist
emily practiced deception in nearly
every public statement he has made"
The government effort to lower
prices has ended in a crash. There
were rumors today that Redfield would
resign-but these were secuted by ad-
ministration officials.

subject to change if the governments
are changed, thus enabling the peo-

SLOW SALE PREDICTED
DECLINES SHOWN

Chicago, May 1.-THE key to recent
decentralization of the live stock mar
ket here was found today in the an
nouncement from Washington of large
meat holdings by the war department.
In three weeks declines of from 81 to
50 have occurred in the principal lines.
Trading also has been uncertain be-
cause OF lessening demand for certain
grades, used heretofore in filling war
orders.
Packers representatives here ap-
proved the statements OF the conferees
in Washington regarding prospects for
heavy losses If war department sup
plies were thrown into the open mar
kct. Much of their present stocks, they
said, comprise high-priced goods, made
high priced by the demands of war.

Av|ATORS AWAIT
BETTER WEATHER
FOR NEXT FLIGHT
American ''Nancies" in Read
mess for 1900 Mile Jump to
Azores; N.C.-4 May Join 1
and 8 at Trepassey Bay.
BY A. E. JOHNSON

United Press Staff Correspondent
Aboard the u. S. S. Prairie, Ire
passey, May 1.-THE American "Nan-
cies" are all set for their 1200-mile
flight to the Azores. enroute to Port
ugal, but early today it was not. be-
lieved likely start will be made be-
fore tomorrow. Weather reports were
being received from the destroyers
strung across the Atlantic, relayed
from ship to ship.
The huge planes were given another
inspection, in which every motor, every
stay, was gone over inch by inch There
was considerable talk of awaiting the
arrival of the N. CA, which was
forced to stop at Chatham, Mass, for
motor repairs. If the N. ca makes q
quick direct flight from Chetham to
Trepassey 1t is believed possible the
three naval machines can start to-
gether on the longest hop of their
transatlantic flying attempt.
HAWkER SENDS MESSAGE
Harry Hawker, pilot of the Brit
ish Sopwith airplane, which has been
in New Foundland for weeks waiting
suspicious weather conditions, sent
wishes for good luck to the American
aviators today. The message was con-
veyed through friends of Hawker, who
visited the American base here. The
big navy planes have been able to sail
serenely through head winds that kept
the British single -motored craft on
the ground This fact causes appre-
hension in the British camps, accord
ing to word received here, as it is per-
fect1y evident that the United States
flyers will not hesitate to start In
weather that would make a Sopwith
flight unsuccessful.
Commander ]. Fl. Towers, Admiral"
Of the transatlantic fleet, declared
this morning that plans after their
arrival at Plymouth, England. were as
yet unformulated. 1t has been sug-
gested that the Americans might fly
back to the United States.

Chatham, Mass, May 12.-Weathe
conditions today seemed likely to pre-
vent the seaplane n. CA from hop
ping off for Halifax. although all re-
pairs had been completed and every
thing was in readiness for the flight.
The wind was from the northeast,
while rain and fog added to the unfa-
vorable conditions.
Commander Read and his crew were
obviously disappointed at the delay.

everything SO that everyone has all he
desires, we will have to use money or
a card system of distribution. In some
things we already have the card sys-
tenn. But we are automatically getting
money out of use by printing 1t as fast
as we can. AS soon as we can get
more machines from America we will
print still more.
Eventually 1t will become SO plentl-
full and worthless that nobody will
want 1t. BY that time our system of
state production will be so developed
that there will be more than enough of
the necessities of life for everyone
The luxuries will be distributed by the

countries will be worthless at first. But
we will buy what we need with gold

not want it. We are glad to get rid

everything and by then we figure 9TH

will be so in debt that it cannot get out

has heaped upon 1t.
only communism can save Europe.

probably can emerge from their load
of debts with a capitalistic system,
since they are not SO far in debt and
can profit by trade. They will be the

you how it has been their great
privilege, not merely to tell you
SO In words, but to tell you in men
and material, and the pouring out
Of their wealth and the offering of

$50 may I not take to myself the
pleasant thought that in joining this
company I am joining it in some sense
as q representative Of the United
States, because my duties in the field
of political science have been hardly
more than my efforts as public man?
They have constituted an attempt to
put into words the thoughts of a ma
ton, the attitude of a people toward
public affairs.
THOUGHT ERRONEOUS
"a great number of my colleagues in
American University life got their
training in political science in German
universities. l have been obligated at
various times to read a great deal of
bad German, difficult German, awll =
ward German, and l have been aware
that. the thought was as awkward as
ed in a fundamental misconception of
the political life of a people. And 1t
has been portion of my effort to
disengage the thought of American I'M
iversities' teachers from the misguided
instruction they have received on this
side Of the sea. Their American spirit
anticipates most of them as a matter
of course, but the form of the thought
sometimes missed them.
"They speak too often of the state
as n thing which could ignore the in
dividual, as thing which was priv
ileged to dominate the fortune of men
by a sort of inherent and sacred au-
thority. Now as an utter Democrat
I have never been able to accept that
view of the state. My view of the
state is that it must stop and listen
to what the individual has to say. nc
matter how humble and common the
individual may be.
FREE SPEECH VALUABLE

those who believe the oreatestlfree-
dom of speech was the greatest
! safety, because if man is fool
the best thing to do is to encour-
age HIM to advertise the TACT by

discovered if you allow him to re-
main silent and look wise.

that it is defeated, and in this free
air of free speech. men get into thai
sort of relationship with one another

products represent the combined out
put of the packing houses for five
months during the war, when the

tinuously to meet the demands for

ment official statement said.
NORMAL PRODUCTION
1T is explained by the committee OF
packers that this amount was a nor
NAL production of these plants over
period of two years and to place
this quantity of packed meats on the
market at this time would seriously
affect prices on both canned and fresh
meats.
The representatives of the packing
industry strongly advised that all of
this stock be disposed of for export It
was hoped that it could be sold abroad
to relieve the food situation in many
of the countries now on short rations.
1t was also asserted that negotiations
be instituted through the American re-
lief administration, the allied liquida-
ton committee and organizations now
aiding in the feeding of some OF the
administration countries. Should it
be impossible to sell this stock of
! canned meat for export, then the d.
rector of sales would control the sales,

within the means OF their govern

by the commission.
RESPONSIBILITIES.

~ the same provisions for trial of
those guilty of criminal acts as the

visions, however, for trial on political
charges, thus assuring that former
Emperor Karl will escape the fate Of
Wilhelm Hohenzollern.

The Italians have not indicated
any change in their position re-
