~: washington, Aug. 23.-Without :
amendment, and with, practically {
no opposition, the house voted to
amend the Lever food control act :
to extend its provisions to include
clothing, containers of food, fuel
or fertilizer, fuel oil and imple-
nents used in production Of ne
cessities, and to penalize prof.
teering by $4,000 fine or two
years imprisonment. =
Washington, Aug. 21.-The govern
'ment intends to- take drastic action
against the retail profiteers of the
country, believing they are one of the
main causes of high prices, Attorney
General A. M. Palmer told the house
agriculture committee. 49,: ..
'The department, has had more COM
plants against retail gougers than
anyone else," Mr.. Palmer said.
''They are taking advantage of pres.
ent conditions to take unfair profits,
and the department desires, with the
consent Of congress, to take speedy
action against them as we'll as all
prOfiteers.
Small Profiteers Hunted.
1--WE don't want to pick out the big
packers and punish them alone and
then let the gougers go free. The lat
ter are the men the people come in
contact with, and we have much evil
dence to show that they are extorting
large profits
The attorney general all through his
testimony insisted speed was essential
in his campaign against price boosters
and urged congress to extend the food
control act to include wearing apparel,
as he suggested.
Executive Price Fixing Opposed.
He opposed the plan of Chairman
Gilbert Haugen to establish system
OF executive price fixing, claiming it
would require several months to build
up an organization that would deter

1T would be impossible to get i'm
mediate results by reviving the food
administration" Mr.. Palmer said, cor
any similar agency.
my plan is to make conspicuous ex.
amples of some of the profiteers and
show them the government means
business. I don't believe wholesale
prosecutions will be necessary, but
we are ready to carry them out if
necessary"
The attorney general, in order to
reach the retailers, suggested that the
exemptions of all retailers doing a
business of less than 100000 be
stricken from the federal food con-
troll act,
Regarding the farmers and farm or
CARNATIONS, Mr.. Palmer said he would
exempt them from the boarding pro-
visions. as he believed they should be

FOREST FIRES. RAGING
Western Montana Swept by
Worst Blaze in History.
Flames Beyond Control and Women
and Children Are Rushed to Safety
Ranches Destroyed.

MissouIa, Mont, Aug. 21.-Wom-
IN and children are being rushed
10 safety, hundreds Of heads OF
stock have been destroyed and
several ranch houses burned north
Of MissouIa by fires. The flames
are beyond control.
Two Reported Dead.
Billings, Mont, Aug. 21.-With
communication almost complete
ly cut off, Western Montana was
enveIoped in a smoky haze re-
suIting from forest fires that have
caused two deaths and damage
to thousands of acres of timber
land. Dozens of ranches have
been swept by the bIazes. There
was little probability that immedi-
ate rains might fall to shoulder
the flames.
Helena, Mont, Aug. 2O.-East Hele-
"a, a town Of 2,700 people, six miles
east from here, has been swept by fire.
The loss is estimated at 100000. The
business section was destroyed.
The buildings destroyed include 20
places of business, IS residences, and
numerous small store houses of coal,
hay, merchandise, and so residences
partly burned. Two blocks along the
south side Of Main street are entirely
gone.
Helen Sasek, five years old, sound
ed the alarm. She rushed to her
mother and told her that shed was
on fire. She told her mother that she
had seen boy throw a cigaret away.
Falling wires, trolley lines, light
wires and telephone lines cluttered up
the main street, and two big gasoline
storage tanks exploded when the fire
reached them, There were several
volleys which sounded like machine
guns, which proved to be stores of
ammunition of all kinds going up in
the general confagration.
The fields surrounding East Helena
are the scene of camping parties in
all directions. Many are doing the
best they can with few pieces of fur
niture and little bedding. Hundreds
had to move out of their homes.

Its Repeal.
Washington, Aug. 16. -- President
Wilson has vetoed the bill repeating
