Reaction From High Costs Estab-
IiShed in War Has Set in,
Says Federal Board.
FOOD and CLOTHING CHEAPER
Business Continues at Extremely
High Level" and Confidence of Sat
isfactory Solution of Wage and
Price Problems Is Reported.

Washington, Sept. 8.-Reaction from
the high price level established during
the war has set in, says the federal re-
serve boards review of business con-
ditions In August.
Not only are some foodstuffs declin-
ing in cost to the consumer, but the
price of wearing apparel, such as tex
tiles and shoes, also has been affected,
the review says.
Business continues at an extremely
high level" and confidence of salts
factory solution of the wage and price
problems was reported from all sec
tions of the country.
During August, factors which had
not hitherto arrested much attention
exercised great influence on the busi-
ness situation" the boards statement
said. Reference is made, of course,
to the problem of commodity prices,
in particular those going to make up
the cost of living, and to the conse-
quent condition of labor unrest.
Whereas previously emphasis had
been placed upon the great activity
displayed by business, the problem OF
price readjustment and the difficulties
connected with it now bulk largest
Discussion in connection with this re
adjustment is particularly centered up
on the problem of the relation OF
wages and prices.
"a movement toward lower prices
appears to be in progress in certain
directions, prices of certain foodstuffs
are declining, as feeling of conser
vatism is noticeable in certain lines
such as the textile and shoe indus
tries, in which price advances had pre-
viously been most marked, 'resales' al
some concession in price being re
ported.
Reports from the federal reserve
| agents generally indicate feeling o.
confidence that a satisfactory solution
of the price and wage problems will
be reported. The actual volume o
business transacted continues at al
extremely high level for the presen
season of the year, although transpor
tation difficulties and shortage of la
Dor have been hampering factors ii
certain lines.
'The agricultural outlook on tn
whole is distinctly less favorable thai
a month ago, although the large acre
age sown in certain cases will com
pensate for decreased yield per acre
Cotton in particular is in poor condi
| ton.
"Ref1ecting the feeling of uncertain
ty which prevails. the volume of spec
ulation has abated, and declines 1
the price of securities have occurred
The general business situation, how
ever, is at bottom strong"
Discussing labor conditions, th
board recorded that reports from tn
majority of districts designate the sit
uation as unsettled"
In certain districts decreasing eff
cheney of labor is remarked, which
ascribed to relaxation from war-tim
pressure for maximum production. A
the same time additional demand
made by the workers have been gran
ed, in large part due to the geners
shortage of labor which exists in man
sections.

Late reports from the Ukraine said
Petlura and Denikine were closing in
on Kieff and apparently were about to
take that important city from the boil
sheviki. The Reds claim the capture
of Dubovka, on the lower Volga, and
also announced that Admiral Kolchak
had evacuated Omsk and established
his government at Irkutsk, 1850 miles
further east. Kolchak has issued a
stirring appeal to all loyal Russians
to rejoin the ranks, and his representa-
tives have been granted the privilege
of recruiting in Japan. The Esthoni-
ans had the bolshevik armies in so
tight a hole that the Lenine govern
ment offered to make peace with them.
Trotsky, addressing the Petrograd SOW
let, said the bolsheviki must stand i'm
pregnably in the defense of that city.
The reports that General Cough, the
British commander, was about to at
tack Petrograd appear to have been
untrue. The Poles also, using tanks
for the first time. whipped the bolshev-
Xxi, capturing the fortified town of Bob
ruisk and 500 prisoners.

AS for the Chinese, If Yosuke Mat
sucka, member of the japanese peace
delegation, is to be believed, the wind
will soon be taken out of the sails of
those who are shouting against the
Shantung settlement. He thinks japan
will open negotiations in a very few
weeks for the settling of the Shantung
question in way that will satisfy ev,
eryone. Tokyo will offer to restore the
territory to China, withdrawing all
Japanese troops, stipulating that the
peninsula shall be open to information
al trade and that there shall be an in
ternational settlement at Tsing-Tao,
and that the Shantung railway shall
be operated by Chino-Japanese joint
corporation. There are reasons to be-
lfeve the Chinese government is not
nearly so angry over the Shantung ar
ticle as the American opponents of the
treaty pretend to be.

President Wilson is on his way, tell
face to face how excellent a document
Is the peace treaty with the incorpor-
ated League of Nations covenant, and
how necessary to the welfare of the
world 1t is that it should be ratified by
the senate speedily. Beginning his ad-
dresses at Columbus, O., he continued
them at Indianapolis; st. Louis, Kan
sas City and Des Moines, and he is
now proceeding on westward by the
northern route. Before leaving Wash
ingtOn Mr.. Wilson had a final confer
ence with Senator Hitchcock and is
sued instructions to his supporters to
make fight to finish for ratification
of the treaty just as it stands
Senator Hitchcock on the same day
addressed the senate on the question,
hotly denouncing the opponents Of the
treaty, even those who favor only mild
reservations. He declared the real
| purpose of the majority on the foreign
relations committee was to kill the
pact entirely, and indeed there seems
| to be justification for that assertion.
Senator Knox's proposal that the trea-
| ty be rejected and separate peace
made with Germany, he said was an in
sane mixture of poltroonery and folly.
| Mr.. Hitchcock took direct issue with
those who complain that the United
States will derive no advantages and
benefits from the treaty as it is. They
evidently have no conception, he said,
Of the enormous benefits America will
get from it, and intimated these would
come through the operations of the
reparations commission, though how
and what they would be, he neglected
to explain.

The senate committee ON foreign re-

cation of the treaty by the senate with
four important notifications. These
reservations provide for unconditional
right to withdraw from the League of
Nations; assumption of no obligation
to guarantee territorial integrity of
nations or to employ troops for CO.
ercive purposes or to accept mandates
except under the direction of congress !;
full freedom to determine what Ques-

subject to consideration by the league /;
exemption of the Monroe doctrine from
consideration by the league and dec
laration that the United States is sole
interpreter of that doctrine.

ocrat, Joined the majority in voting for
all the reservations except that re-

great powers: Great Britain, France
Italy and Japan.

Just before starting out on his speak
ing tour President Wilson announced
that a general conference on indus
trial and economic questions would be
held in Washington early in October.
Already a number of leaders of finance,
manufacturing, labor and agriculture
have been invited and the LIST will be
enlarged from time to time. The pres
ident and members of his cabinet will
take part in the discussions. and it is
the hope and belief of Mr.. Wilson and
indeed of everyone that the sessions Of
this round table will have decisive benz
efcial results in the way of stabilizing
industrial conditions. Certainly much
good should come of the frank inter-
change of opinions and suggestions
that is planned.
In general the labor situation is un-
changed, pending the presidents tour,
the war on high prices and the above
mentioned conference. At the same
time the radical elements are keeping
busy, and it may be the threatened
strike of steel workers will come any
day.
