HOUSE ASKS PALMER TO
EXPLAIN SUGAR PRICE

Washington, Dec. 18.-A resolution
directing Atty.-Gen. Palmer to re-
port by what authority he fixed an
arbitrary price for the Louisiana
sugar crop was adopted today by the
house.
Objection was made by republic
ans to a price in Michigan of 10 or
II cents,> while the Louisiana crop
was fixed at II cents a pound for
yellow clarified sugar and 18 cents for
plantation granulated.
1.-THE attorney general has abso-
legal authority to fix the price of any
commodity" said Representative
Tinkham, republican, Massachusetts,,
who introduced the resolution. "By
this arbitrary price he has increased
the cost OF sugar more than 100 per
cent. He Is supposed to punish profit
eers, but that is ALL"
Representative Byrnes, democrat
South Carolina, said private interests
offered from 25 to 27 cents pound
for the Louisiana crop and that the
prices of II and Is cents were fixed
by Atty. Gen. Palmer when the sugar
growers asked what price the prod
uct could be sold and the sellers not
held as profiteers.
THE attorney-ge general said he
would not prosecute any one who sold
under IT and 1S cents" Byrnes said,
land thus the arbitrary price was
established The Louisiana crop is
one third the size it is ordinarily. be-
ing only about 100000 tons this year,
What the attorney general actually
did was to save millions of dollars
for the American people"

Talks Economy
TO U. S. Congress
G. 0. P. Leader MondeII Urges
Deaf Ear to All but ES-
SentiaI Demands.

Washington Dec BE N. 81
Preaching economy to the house dur
ing a speech today dealing with gov
ernment finances, House Republican
Leader MOndell warned of slashing re-
ductions to be made in departmental
demands for funds and the turning of
a deaf ear by congress to all except the
urgent new demands.
I'VE have teached the time when in
period comparable with the gray
dawn of the morning after. we must
soberly, and possibly somewhat pain
fully, set about the uninspiring, but
essential work of restoring things TO
normal conditions" he said. I'VE can
do this only by courageously meeting
the obligations incurred In the period
of the war and stress and enthusia sn1.
and by setting our faces like flint
against unnecessary expenditures.
Discussing where cuts could be made,
Mondell said:
1.-THE estimates for the army of nearly
a billion dollars will. with the exception
of the fortifications bill, stand the
heaviest cut.
1T should be reduced at lcast by
half The estimates for sundry civil
expenditures aggregate over 5000. 900
will stand a very heavy reduction. the
estimates for fortifications, $1l7,793,-
$50. will stand the heaviest cut OF all
The naval estimates maye be largely
reduced without impalrlng the erlcleHcT
of our naval establishment. Rivers and
harbors estimates are not large. S42'-
Sf1 565, but they will stand substan-
tial reduction. And so all along the line
heavy reductions must be made or we
face disa ster."
Commenting on the action of the sec
retary of the treasury in entering into
agreements with foreign nation cred,
itors not to require cash payments OF
interest on foreign loans amounting to
ten billions for the next two or three
years and to fund these charges, Mon
dell said:
II express no opinion as to the au-
thority of the secretary to make this
arrangement which will increase our
loans to foreign governments billion
mr. two above the fixed limit of income
or increases our outlay. whichever way
you care to put it, half million dol

r. R. SITUATION
BIT TANGLED
Strong Opposition Develops
in Senate to CumminS
Measure.
ROUGH SAILING PROMISED

Washington, Dec. is.--Q. N. S)--
The railroad situation today is con-
siderably tangled.
Strong opposition to the Cummins
bill for the return of the railroads
has developed in the senate, and there
is now doubt as to whether that
measure can be passed before the
Christmas holidays.
Many OF the members OF the sem
ate are awaiting word from the presi-
dent before they will consent to a
final vote on the Cummins bill.
The president is preparing a mes
sage on the railroad question, but
there 10 no indication as to when 1t
will be sent to congress, or whether
it will be sent before the Christmas
recess.
There is strong likelihood that the
president will ask that the Christmas
recess be deferred.
While the presidents attitude Is
being very carefully guarded, there Is
every indication that the railroads
viii not be returned until there has
been protective legislation passed
He has made report with recon-
mendations to the president on the
situation, and 1t Is understood that he
advised that the president keep con-
troll of the roads until there Is definite
assurance of the passage OF railroad
legislation.
