Washington, Aug. 3.-Steps toward re-
ducing the high cost of living are expect
ed this week.
While all govern nent departments are
working toward the end of alternating
unrest by restoring a normal level of
prices, interest centers in the meeting
Tuesday of the conference called by At
torney General Palmer to consider the
best method of procedure, especially
with respect to profiteering. The com
mittee appointed by the conference, pl-
rector General Hines, Assistant Secre-
tary of the Treasurer Laffinwell and
Chairman Colver of the federal trade
commission have been engaged in an ex-
change of memoranda which will be put
before the conference for recommenda-
ton to President Wilson, who is follow
ing all steps closely,
The presence of Julius Barnes, direc-
tor of the grain corporation Mt the meet
ing Tuesday will give expert counsel to
cabinet meetings and other officials on
the grain situation. Consideration OF n
plan to sell wheat in free market. the
government absorbing the difference be-
tween the market price and the guaran-
teed price, is believed crtain.
Attention to Profiteers.
There are indications that the attorney
general is paying especial attention TO
cases of profiteering. He has at his dis
posai great volume of information coll

showing production costs in scores of in
dustries. Mr.. Palmer has said that there
is a great deal of good law on the stat
ute books" and it is believed he Will find
way to punish any eases where there
are evidences of extortion.
The average citizen is the man in
whose behalf the profiteering investiga
ton will be pushed despite the fact that
it was the new demands of the railroad
labor unions which precipitated il. Sew
era officials have expressed sympathy
with the salaried man who lacks the
backing of powerful organization.

Sessions Will Last
Beyond Week

Helena. Aug. 3.-The indications are
that next Sunday will see the legislative
business far from concluded as il IS be-
lieved the governor will lay before It in
message. possibly to be submitted to-
morrow. proposition to iH"teaSe the
membership Of the supreme court. This
matter caused a prolonged battle in the
regular session last winter.
A trio of bills aimed at the high cost
of living and introduced by Senators
Booth, Healy and Lowe will. it Is expect
ed. come before both houses Of the Mon
tana assembly tomorrow.
No Sunday Session.
Neither house was in session today.
though there had been some talk of a
Sunday session in view of the urgency
of drouth relief legislation. Committees.
however, were not in a position to make
full reports yesterday, it is said.
The bills referred to, on living costs,
provide strict regulation of merchandis-
ing, under the trade commission and
market director. 1t is understood that
they will come out of committee tomor-
row. after some amendment. There has
been objection, in hearings on the bills.
TO the plan to give the state power to
suspend q given business, while adjust
ment of prices is going on. There is free
prediction, however, that the bills, in
amended form, will pass both houses,
probably next week.
Fight Is Expected.
Considerable controversy is expected
over the measure introduced by Repre-
sentative Ronald Higgins of Missoula, to
bond the state for $5,W0,000 for drouth
relief. The original bill provided a board
of farmers and others, of all political
complexion, to handle the funds.
The bill in it's present form. however. it
is said, puts the fund in the hands of the
state board of examiners. The non-par-
tisan league element in the legislature, is
the prediction, would be drawn into this
battle. which may consume considerable
time in both houses.
The houses will also be confronted with
new county legislation, since the Larson
bill killing the McCone act, relative to
the counties, has been in turn killed in
the lower chamber.

The rapid griwth of the annual
Stock show in Denver has resulted
in adding several acres more land to
the show grounds for the next show
In January and in addition the asso-
cation has put limitations as to the
Kind OF stork that can be exhibited.
The new building being erected will
hold about six hundred cattle and an
effort is being made to limit the
entries in the Shorthorn and Here
ford breeds to that number. Com
mittees Will pass upon the cattle
entered and those that aren't suitable
for exhibition will be withdrawn. The
number of cattle that any exhibitor
can enter in a single class is also
limited over $1,000 in cash prem
iums will be awarded to these two
breeds alone and the effort Of the
stock Show management is not to
secure exhibits but to limit them to
the cattle of quality.
The indications are that notwith-
standing these limitations every de-
partment of the show will have larg-
er exhibits than ever before and ey-
en- with the increased space and ad-
ditional buildings, IL will be difficult
to get all entries into the show
