made by the railroad administration
without in any way consulting the
Interstate Commerce Commission. Mr..
Fordney said the information that came
TO him was from gentleman who went
to the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion and was informed by members of
the commission that they were not con-
suited
MIR. Fordney was asked if he knew
what reasons were advanced by the i'm
porters in support of their claims for
freight discrimination in their favor.
He said he did not, and added:
The importer is always in favor of
free trade on an imported article that
completes with like article in this
country. Therefore this concession
is made for the purpose of obtaining
foreign made goods at a lower price
than has obtained heretofore.
Asked again by Representative But
Ter, Republican, of Pennsylvania, if the
Railroad Administration had given no
reason for this discrimination, Mr..
Fordney replied:
mo, except that the Railroad Adj
ministration says, we are operating in
the interests of the railroads, and if
you want any other excuse, that of
protection or otherwise, go to Congress
and get it and do not come to u.s."
In response to questions, Mr.. Ford.
ney said the reduction in freight rates
do not apply to goods transported
from the Atlantic Coast westward.

Austrian Germans
Accused of Couging
Out Slovenes' Eyes
Publicly Exhibited Ears and
Noses of Victims, Hanged
Men Along Roads and De-
vastated Towns, Is Charge

NeU York Tribune
Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, May 24-Dr. Vow
slav M Yovanovitch, director of the
official information bureau of the
Serbs, Creates and Slovenes here. has
received from the government of the
new Jugo-Sav Kingdom the following
cablegram, dated Belgrade, May 90:
"Numeous official dispatches received
by the government from Laibach give
sombre and bloody picture of the
cruelties committed by the Germans
of Austria during their recent in
vasion of the Slovene parts of Carin-
thia. An indescribable terror reigns
in the Celove Klagenfurt region.
"The Austrian Germans have syste
maticaly and in all it's details prepared
the campaign against the peaceable
Slovenian peasants, with the evident
intention of exterminating the Jugo-
Slav element in Carinthia, a country
they covet
"Under the pretext of a pretended
Jugo-Slav offensive planned against
them, the Germans have massed troops
and have crossed the frontier line
invading the Slovene country, and COM
mitted, before the very eyes of the
peace conference, savage crimes and
terrible cruelties which exceed. if DOS
sible, even the atrocities committed in
Serbia, Belgium and Northern France
during the war"
The following are some Of the re-
ports which have been received here:
Several hundred Slovene peasants
have been interned at the camp at
Spital on the Drava River. Three
Slovene Roman Catholic priests we're
hanged at this camp.
AT Celovec, the Austrian Germans
publicly exhibited the ears, eyes, and
noses of their victims, in order to call
forth their soldiers to commit new
crimes, declaring they we're the organs
of Austrian victims of their Slovene
conatonale. The German Austrians
especially attacked the Slovene clergy,
knowing them to be extremely patriotic
and antiAustrian.
AT the village of Sells, the pictures
of the Saints from the church served
as shooting target for the Germans.
MADAME Francis. Grafenauer, wife
of the we'll known Jugo-Slav leader and
deputy to the national parliament
of Belgrade, who was at Svecc, was
carried off by the soldiers with her
young children and three sisters.
Nothing is known as to her fate.
"The priest, Fouger, was struck on
the face by German student and is
now an inmate of the hospital at Cello
veo. Two Roman Catholic nuns were
killed at Velikovatz. The bodies of
Slovene men and youths are hanging
to trees along the public road
1.-The German advance guard had with
it list of the notable Slovene in
habitants, indicating those who were
to be executed and those who were t
be illtreated and held for ransom"

ton of the question, now frequently
raised, of an increase in rates.
"ln my judgment the deficit for
1918 and for the REIMBURSEMENT period
Of 1919 are clearly losses due to the
war and ought to be treated as such.
BY reason of the abnormal after the
war factors tending to important
changes in the situation, the estimate
herewith submitted does not attempt
to forecast results beyond the first
four months of this calendar year.
'If the amount here requested shall
be appropriated the total appropria-
tons for the railroad administration
will have been S1.7OO, 100000. OF this
amount 81 100000 will represent
amounts which should be returned to
the government, S425, 100000 thereof
being temporarily tied up in working
capital and 100000 thereof rep
resentinf amounts which have been
and will be advanced for the account
of the railroad corporations, and
which it with be their duty to repay
as rapidly as practicable. About s14,-
100000 will represent expenditures
for equipment of inland waterways.
"Of the entire S1,7OO,0 100000, 1885,
100000 represents the aggregate loss
to the government up to April 80
1919, on account of the two deficits
above explained.
"The sum of approximately S223,-
100000 for increased working capital
demonstrated that the amount Of work
ing capital actually available for cur
rent use on December 81, 1918, was
insufficient to admit of the free and
unrestricted payment of pay rolls and
vouchers for materials and supplies
throughout the country"

Era of High Prices
TO Last for Years.
Says Otto III. Kahn
Banker Points to Inability
of Production to Exceed
Demand and Expansion of
Currency and Bank Credits
NeW York Tribune
WdShtuOfo1, .Rurcou

WASHINGTON, May 24-Otto H.
Kahn, of Kuhn, Loeb and Company,
New York, in communication to
Secretary Wilson, of the Department
Of Labor, expresses the firm belief
that prices will not be materially
lowered for a number Of years, if at
all, and that for all practical purposes
the war has brought a new level of
prices, the existence of which must be
recognized.
Mr.. Kahn writes: prices are de-
tcrmined in the main by the volume
of production, of consumption and
probably more than by either of
these) of the circulating medium, i. e.,
currency, bank credits, etc.
REPRODUCTION. After the civil war
the return of prices to the pre-war
level, though it took thirteen years
to accomplish, was immensely aided by
the development of entirely novel
methods of production in the shape of
new forms Of machinery and new
kinds of business organizations. No
one will seriously contend that the
possibilities of the immediate future
for increased efficiency or novel meth
DDS in production and distribution are
likely even to approach those which
came between 1865 and 1890.
"2-Consumption. In view of the
vast destruction wrought by the wa,
and now to be made good by recon.
struction, and in view of the accumu-
lation of the demand for many things
which could not be supplied during
the war, demand in many fundamental
lines is bound to be large and urgent
for some time to come.
'3-Circulating medium. The credi,
expansion and currency imitation OF
the leading countries of the world
including our own, during the pas,
five years has been on an entirely un-
precedented scale. The process of con-
traction and defation, to the extent
that is possible and likely to be ap-
proved by public opinion, will take
many years.
"The conclusion is inevitable that
we have arrived at a new price level
This level in the early future may &c
somewhat lower, or it may go some
what higher than at present, but il
seems to me certain that there can,
not be any immediate and radical re
cession. Those who hope for or fear
materially lower prices will, am con-
WINGED, have to wait a long time"

PRESIDENT ASPOWER
TO INCREASE WAGES
BUT PASSES BUCK TO CONGRESS IN
ASKING FOR AUTHORITY WHICH
WAS GIVEN DURING WAR.

washington, August 14.-That Pres
ident Wilson has had the power all
along to raise or decrease the wages
of the railroad men of the country
and has not only failed in his duty to
exercise that power. but has turned
the problem over to Congress, is the
charge made by Senator Albert B.
Cummins OF Iowa, Chairman Of the
Senate Committee on Interstate Com
merce.
I'VE have not taken from the Presi-
dent the power to initiate rates, said
the Senator. I'VE have not taken
from him any power whatsoever. 1t
is true that the Senate passed Dill
a month ago restoring to the Inter-
state Commerce Commission the au-
thority to suspend rates which might
be initiated by the President, or the
director general, just as before the
war It might have suspended rates
which were initiated by the railroad
companies. But that bill has not be-
come a law. 1t has been obstructed in
the House of Representative by the
Railroad Administration itself. So
that the authority as well as the duty
of initiative rates which may be nee
essary to meet the demands for in
creased wages at the present time I
rests with the director general.
Il am not discussing the futile at
tempts that have been made to de-
crease the cost of living. While l
think that many things might be done
that would have some effect upon the
cost Of living, we shall have to depend
mainly upon the natural development
Of commerce and business and resume
the relations we had before the war.
We must bear the consequences Of the
war. They will not be borne merely
by paying their expenses"
Il confess" interjected Senator
Pomerene of Ohio, a Democrat, that
there was a desire to pass the respon-
sibility. 1 do not know Of anyone
who is in better position to know
whether wages ought to be raised
than the director general / think if
l were director general of railroads
l would have the courage to say either
that there ought to be or ought not to
be an increase of wages, or l would
resign"
"All I have to say" said Senator
Cummins, "is that the power resides
with the director general both to in
crease wages and to increase rates,
and, as the law now is, the rates can
be made effective at any time deter [
mined by the director general. The I
President asks a new board for the E
fixing of railway wages. I do not I
think it is fair or just that the i'm 5
preston should go to the country that {
the administration is powerless to /
deal with the situation unless Con- c
gress acts when the opposite is the
case" {

STORY OF EVERY WONlAN'S QUEST
FOR LOVE TOLD DRAMATICALLY
AND SPECTACULARLY TONIGHT

EVERY woman will want to see
Everywoman. Every man of intelli-
gence who takes his pleasure at the
theatre will crowd to see it," That is
Swhat the London Times says about
henry W. Savage's mighty spectacle
Everywoman, showing tonight at the
Palace Theatre. This play, which was
written by Walter Brown after the
manner of the old Greek morality plays,
has had a remarkable record of sue.
cess, not only throughout this country
but in Europe as well. 1t is drama as
well as musical comedy. The scenic
( effects and the marvellous costuming
story of the play however, is what will
appeal mostly to those who are inter.
estedin the drama. In the story the
virtues and vices of Everywoman en-
counters are personfied, as in the old
morality plays. Truth warns Every
woman Of her dangers, but she gives
no heed. Tempted by Nlattery, She sets
out with her three companions, Youth,
Beauty and Modesty, and seeks love
through Passion, through Wealth and
Through Society. She adopts the stage,
mounts to stardom, besieges the hearts
and money bags of men, goes a wild
pace. and ultimately pays the toll. Pow.
erty and Misery assail her. But in the
end, amid much that is beautiful and
Inspiring. she finds love, King Love,
son of Truth.
