SOLDIERS SCALE MOUNTAIN PEAKS
 IN BANDIT HUNT
One Column is Hot on Trail of Two of Gang Who I'm
 prisoned Airmen.

Maria, Texas. Aug. 21.-The Amer ican punitive expedition in Mexico. took up the bandit chase at dawn to- day for the third day across the bor- der. One column picked up the hot trail of two bandits believed to have been companions of the two bandits captured late yesterday by Captain Leonard Matlack. The pursuit is con- tinuing over mountain peaks, down steep slopes and through mountain valleys.
 By sunrise airplanes left the ground here for Presidio, 60 miles south, where a. flying field base for the expedition has been established.
 Landing there and getting gas and oil. the planes flew across the Rio Grande over PalIsa des, near Ojinaga. along the Conchos river valley to pick up the trail south. Cavalry columns are searching out every canyon which could possibly be the hiding place of the bandits.
 Aviators located all American col umns in Mexico yesterday. The fiiers also found the Mexican federal col umn under General P-Ineda, near Cuchillo Parade and reported the To- cation of other small bodies of Car ranza troops. When the fiers left this morning they carried news bulle- tins furnished by the Associated Press which they planned to drop for each cavalry troop operating in Mexico, 60 give them news of the outside world, since they crossed the border.

Death Of Prominent
 Chemist
George H. Graves Died Last Night in Southport After
 Long Illness.
MADE FINE RECORD
 IN HIS PROFESSION

News of the death of George H. Graves, which occurred at Southport last night following a long illness of anaemia, will come as a great shock to his many friends in this city where he had beer widely known as one of the leading chemists of the country and one of the foremost, men in the Eastern states. MT. Graves was a son-in-law of Zalmon Goodsell of the zalmon Goodsell In- surance and Real Estate Company and had come from a very old and prominent family of Vermont Mir. Graves was about 60 years of age.
 For 90 odd years he had served as general manager of the old Fairfield Chemical company which was bought out several years ago by the General Chemical company of the United States. His splendid records made as a chemist during his employ in the Fairfield company placed him in charge Of the plant at Shepshead Bay IN. Y, where he was largely respon- sible for the great progress made among labor and social conditions in that place. He was loved and ad- mired by all his associates of the plant and was one of the leading fig ures in many of the welfare activities at Sheepshead.
 It was during his experiments and successful triumphs as a chemist in the Savanna plant, where three other well known chemists of the country had failed in obtaining certain re- suits from various acids, that he had been stricken with pneumonia from which sickness he had suffered for nearly two years and which finally eliminated in anaemia. His health began to fail him little by little until he lost the use of his legs, and even the final retirement at the summer home in Southport failed to restore him.

More Important To Cut Living Cost Than To Protect Market
BLAND SAYS WE PAY HIGHER PRICES FOR
 GOODS AT HOME THAN ABROAD.

Paris, Wednesday, Aug. 2o-Con- gressman Oscar E. Bland of Indiana, a member of the war expenditures in vestigating committee, which is here examining records pertaining to the liquidation of the affairs of the Amer ican army in France said today that he felt it was more important to low CT the cost of living for the American public than to endeavor to protect market prices and prevent the market from breaking.
 He said the pressure brought to bear by American dealers and manu-

lecturers in an effort to prevent the return of war supplies from France to America was objectionable to him. adding that when Americans so badly need shoes. it seems strange that so many good army shoes should be sold cheaply to Belgium and other European countries, American work ing men, meanwhile, being forced to pay higher prices in the United States" He said the same was true as to trucks and motor cars needed in America.

WILSON SAYS HE HAS
 NOT POWER TO ISSUE PEACE PROCLAMATION
In Reply to Questions Says He Could Not Take Such Action Un- til Treaty is Ratified High Prices Caused by Treaty Delay.

Washington. Aug. 21-Pres< ident Wilson has not the power to declare peace by proclama- ton, nor could he consent in any circumstances to take such a course prior to the ratifica- ton of a formal treaty of peace by the Senate. The President so wrote Senator Fall today in answer to one of the twenty written questions the Senator presented at the White House conference Tuesday.
 Replying to another question, the President said the provision of the treaty that it should come into force after ratification by Germany and three of the principal associated powers operated merely to establish peace between those ratifying pow CTS and that it was objectionable whether it can be said .hat the league of nations is in any true sense created by the association of only three of the Allied and associated governments
 As to the question of when normal conditions might be restored the President said he could only express the confident opinion that immediate ratificatio of the treaty and accept ance of the covenant of the league as written would 'certainly within the near future reduce the cost of liv- ing" both in this country and abroad through the restoration of production and commerce to normal
 To Senator Falls questions relat- ing to the disposition of Germany's possessions, the President said the arrangement in the treaty conveyed no title to the Allied or associated powers, but merely "intrusts disposi ton of the territory in question their decision"

tory, of which I am cognizant, concerns the redisposition of all rights already possessed by those countries on that continent. The provisional agreement referred to in the preceding paragraph cov- CTS all the Germany overseas pos sessions in Africa as well as else where.
 "Fifteen-No mention was made in connection with the set clement of the Saar Basin of the service of an American member of the commission of five to be set up there.
 "Sixteen-It was deemed wise that the United States should be represented by one member of the commission for settling the new frontier lines of Belgium and Germany, because of the univer- sal opinion that Americas repre- sentative would add to the com mission a useful element of en- tirely disinterested judgment.
 "Seventeen-The choice of the commission for the Saar Basin was left to the Council of the League of Nations. because the Saar Basin is for fifteen years to be directly under the care and direction of the League of Ma tions.
 Eighteen-Article S5 does in effect provide that five Of the members of the commission of seven to fix the boundaries be- tween Poland and Czecho-Slo- vakia should be nominated by cer- tain countries, because there are five principal allied and associat- ed powers, and the nomination of five representative by those powers necessarily means the nomination of one representative be each of those powers.
 'Nineteen-No such commas sion has yet been appointed. (The commission referred to is that for the fixing of the Polish boundaries.)
 "Twenty-It was deemed wise that the United States should have a representative on the commission set to legislate au- thority over the plebiscite of Up per Silesia, for the same reason that I have given with regard to the commission for settling the frontier line of Belgium and Germany.
 Sincerely yours,

Washington. Aug. 21-The Presidents letter to Senator Fall answers his twenty questions as follows:
 My Dear Senator Fall:
 You left yesterday in my hands certain written questions which I promised you I would answer. I am hastening to fulfil that promise.
 "I feel constrained to say in reply to your first question not only that in my judgment I have not the power by proclamation to declare that peace exists, but that I could in no circumstances con- sent to take such a course prior to the ratification of a formal treaty of peace. I feel it due to perfect frankness to say that it would in my opinion put a stain upon our national honor which we never could efface. if after send ing our men to the battlefield to fight the common cause, we should abandon our associates in the war in the settlement of the terms of peace and disassociate ourselves from all responsibility with regard to those terms.
 "I respectfully suggest that, having said this, I have in effect answered also your second. third and fourth questions so far as I myself am concerned.
 Permit me to answer your fifth question by saying that the provisions of the treaty to which you refer operate merely to es- tablish peace between the powers ratifying, and that it is ques- tionable whether it can be said that the League of Nations is in any true sense created by rne as- sociation of only three of the al- lied and associated governments.
 "In reply to your sixth ques- ton, I can only express the confi- dent opinion that the immediate adoption of the treaty, along with the articles of the Covenant of the League as written would cer- tainly within the near future re- duce the cost of living in this country as elsewhere, by restor- ing production and commerce to their normal strength and free dom.
 For your convenience, I will number the remaining paragrap of this letter as the questions to which they are intended to reply are numbered.

MAYOR SCORES ACITATORS, FOUR MUST DEPART

Superintendent of Police
 John H. Redgate this afternoon
 issued an ultimatum to four
 agents of the Workers Interna-
 tional Industrial Union giving
 them 4S hours to get out of
 Bridgeport, following Mayor
 Wilson's militant attack on
 "Bolshevistic and un-Ameri-
 can" industrial leaders of the
 city.
 wilson conferred with the police after 1 o'clock this afternoon and Redgate handed the notice to the four labor agents immediately after the conference.
 Anybody who proclaims un-
 American doctrines or seeks to op-
 pose the good order of any commun-
 ity,. should be put behind bars where
 their activities will cease I ask the cooperation of every citizen in
 stamping out these traitors to our country who are seeking only their
 own selfish ends in all of these ac-
 tivities," said the city executive.
 With this amplification of a pre-
 pared statement which the mayor typed for the police and press in the
 absence of his secretary, he went to police headquarters where he ad- dressed the superintendent, captains, lieutenants and sergeants of the de- partment. The members of the force were given to understand that no more temporizing will be tolerated and that drasti measures must be taken.
 The mayors original statement fol- lows:
 There are a number of disputes in this city between capital and labor I believe these questions can be set tied by the parties immediately con cerned. There are certain individ- uaIs, most of whom come from out of town, who are taking advantage
 of the present unrest to proclaim un-
 American doctrines and thoughts subversive to law and good order. 'I am determined that law and good order shall prevail in this city, and the fair name of Bridgeport shall not be jeopardized by un-American, irresponsible persons seeking personal gain at the expense of the comfort and happiness of the lawabiding citi- zens of our city.
 we do not need or want the in reference of any out of town agita- tor to assist in the settlement of any questions arising in our city, and [ shall use every endeavor and all the resources of the city to keep such persons from our doors. "I ask the cooperation of all good
 Americans in my efforts as mayor to stamp out and crush the activities of the irresponsible, lawless. and un- American elements now present in our midst.
 He added the following final warn ing of what would be done:
 "I have already advised with the police and shall use every means to prevent any disorder. There has been none so far anud I do not pro- pose that there shall be any in the future"
 The mayor refused to designate anyone to whom the statement was meant to apply. He declared that
 1t was a general warning and those concerned could heed it or take the consequences.
