SEATTLE PLANNING
HUGE MEMORIAL.
Building to Be Erected in Honor of
Men Who Fought Against Ger
many.

Campaigning for funds to raise a
community building in honor of Sc
attic men who fought in the war will
be started in the Pacific coast city
next month. More than 100000
probably will be required to carry out
ambitious plans already made for the
memorial. 1t has been decided upon
as a better form of civic tribute to
the fighting men than the old-fashion-
ed monuments and shafts erected after
the Civil a The idea of the COM
munlty building type of memorial first
was advocated in the countrywide cru
SADIE by the bureau of memorial build
lngs of war camp community service.
In connection with the raising of
the memorial building, in which will
be an auditorium with seats for 10000
persons, Seattle is planning a great
civic center development which will in
clude a court of victory or "Victory
Square" Bordering this court will be
grouped buildings to be used by the
municipality of Seattle and the memoir
ial building itself.
Planning of the memorial center is
IN the hands Of a committee. It's men,
bers propose to include in the struc-
ture a theatre art gallery, ballroom,
convention facilities, committee rooms
and the great auditorium. It is stat
ed the memorial, when completed, will
be the largest in the world. Construc-
ton work probably will take three
years.
At present a group of four members
OF the Seattle chapter of the American
Institute Of Architects is working or
the designs for the memorial build.

groups in the Pacific coast city are
among those who are in favor of the
plan. At a recent mass meeting Of
Seattle citizens, at which erection of
the memorial was voted pom favor

and fraternal organizations were pres

ing read, in part:
"Be it resolved, that it is the sense
of this meeting that a fitting and ap.
propriate memorial would be a public
auditorium of monumental size anc
character, architectural design ant
beauty, with space for inscription, tab
lets, frescoes and statuary, and having
a capacious and splendid hall to b
devoted to free assembly for civic ant
public purposes, and centrally located

MONTANA TRADE COMMISSION.
FORMERLY USED FOR
BUILDING EAGLE BOATS

Ford eagle" boat number sixty
the last one to be built by the Ford
Motor company under the stipulations
of it's wartime contract with the navy
observation-disclosures launched at the Riv-
er Rouge (Detroit) yard August Is,
at $3.50 p. M, and the long assembling
building which is a third Of a mile
long and housed twenty-one of the
submarine chasers at a time, is al
ready being transferred into a body
building plant with a proposed output
of 500 bodies daily.
Ford officials, workers, sailors and
many invited guests witnessed the
launching. Number go was dressed
with flags and bunting and as it found
it's level in the Rouge and floated free
from the railroad tracks which had
carried it onto the elevator-like launch
ing table, the factory whistle took part
in the ceremony by blowing sixty
blasts-one for each boat launched at
the Ford yard.
Twenty-Five eagles" have already
been commissioned by the navy, and
it is expected that the remaining
boats will be entirely completed by
November LIST. One thing which
greatly prolonged the work was the
changes made in the QUILTING Of the
boats shortly after the armistice vas
signed. AS rapidly as the eagles"
are commissioned they are joining the
different squadrons of the U. S. fleet
six of the Ford boats are going to
the PHILIPPINES to replace six old de-
stroyers and gun-boats; another squa-
dron will join the international patrol
off the coast of China; eagles" 1, 2
and 8 are now doing patrol duty ad-
%jacent to Archangel, Russia, and it is
quite probable that a small fleet will
be sent to Italy.
The eagles" were designed par
ticularly to carry the submarine de-
tecting devices or "listeners," depth
bomb protectors and three-inch guns
with which to combat the U-boat once
it had been located by the "%listener."
They are practically noiseless in op-
Grafton, light, speedy and so construct
ed that a quick getaway is possible
it being necessary to often stop to
"listen" while chasing down a detect
ed submarine. Had the submarine de-
stroyers been called into actual SER
vice-which only the signing of the
armistice prevented-they would have

BEARS SWEET TOOTH LEADS
HIM TO BE CAUGHT IN TRAP

Townsend, Sept. 29.-The influx of
civilization with is modes and resour-
ces has evidently developed in the
Montana woods bears that like apples.
Grey keene, a rancher of Broadwat-
err county, found that a black bear
has a taste for apples, for the ranch
er's apple trees We're suffering a loss
of their fruit. He set a trap and the
first night caught a skunk. The sec
ond night, however, bruin got his foot
on the lever. Now Mr.. keene has a
year-old black bear in his possession.
The bear also bothered the stock farm
of A. +. Cook. Stockmen we're begin
ming to worry lest they should sus-
tain substantial losses through the
prowling of this animal.

NEW SITE FOR HAMLINE
UNDER CONSIDERATION

Proposed new sites for Hamline un-
iversity will be considered by a spe-
cial committee of the board of trus-
tees of the Methodist college, it was
announced by DR.. Samuel F. Kerfoot,
president, at a banquet recently given
which was attended largely by men,
bers of the Minnesota conference of
the Methodist Episcopal church.
The recommendations of the COM
mittee will be considered at a meeting
of the entire membership of the board
of trustees. DR.. Kerfoot gave no
indication of the possible location of
Hamline university. Eight or ten
sites are under consideration" he said.
St. Paul has offered the board of
trustees $225,000 for the present plant
of Hamline university, situated be-
tween Smelling and Simpson and Capt.
tol and Hewitt avenues, DR.. Kerfoot
declared. The offer was made through
Albert Wunderlich, commissioner of
education, and S. o. Hartwell, SUPER
intendent of schools.
1t is understood to be a part of the
city's plan to use some of the col
lege buildings for public school pur-
poses, to convert the college library
into a branch of the st. Paul public
library and, possibly to convert the
college gymnasium into a community
recreation center.
Unanimously the board of trustees
is in favor of accepting the city's Of
fer, DR.. Kerfoot said. The proposed

TRADE COMMITS SI0N ON
HIGH COST OF LIVING
INTERESTING LETTER BY COMMISSION IN ANS
WEIR TO QUESTIONS ON MERCHANDISING
: PROFITS; MATTERS BEAR DIRECTLY
ON HIGH Co.'S OF LIVING.

The following letter was written
by the commission to the represen-
tative of one of the merchants as
sociations Of the state in answer to
certain questions ~propounded to the
commission on the question Of mer-
chandising profits. The matters in
volved bear directly upon the question
of the high cost of living and may be
of interest to the public:
Dear Sir: This is to acknowledge
receipt Of your note addressed to Mr..
Frank Cone, market direct, also the
series of questions propounded by your
association touching upon the high
cost of living. In answer thereto, we
beg to submit the following:
/. The method used by the mer-
chant in arriving at the gross profit
is misleading and is not understood
by the public, inasmuch as you base
the profit upon the selling price. For
mally it was based on the cost price.
The commission does not care to en-
ter into a discussion regarding this
point other than to say that it is i'm
material which method is used. If
a merchant invests two hundred dol
lars in goods and sells them for three
hundred dollars and it costs to do bus
mess twenty-five per cent of the gross
sales, the merchant has made a gross
profit of n hundred dollars minus
and expense of seventy-five dollars,
leaving a net profit of twenty-five
dollars, or twelve and one-half per cent
on his investment, which represents a
gross profit of so per cen on cost
price and SO 1-3 per cent on the SELL
ing price. You further asked, what
about the decline in prices when a
merchant finds he has a large stock
on hand which he will have to sell at
cost or below cost. When war was
declared the merchants had an aver
age stock of goods on hand which was
purchased at normal prices. During
the past five years the cost of the
same goods to the merchant has ad-
vanced in many instances in leaps and
bounds and the merchant received the
benefit of such advances by raising
the cost of all goods on hand to the
market level. This condition has ex-
