washington, u. Z. oct. 6.-Repre-

spirited desire for action r1tlicr
than oratory, at the opening session
today of the industrial conference
called by President Wilson.
Apparently with the determina-
ton of differentiating this confer

held in Washington the public's dele
gates demanded that sessions be
held night and day if necessary to
establish a basi or harmononious

of New York one of these debates
was active in directing the affairs
Of the conference, which was con-

close friendship with President Will

Of the conference but members
of both committees declined tc

SUPREME COURT RULES
ON BONE DRY MEASURES
Reed Prohibition Amendment Cuts
Out Liquor From States for
Personal Use.

The Supreme Court of the United
States. in an, opinion today, held that
the Reed bone dry prohibition
amendment does absolutely prohibit
interstate shipments into dry states
of intoxicating liquor for beverage
purposes intended for personal use.
AS interpreted by the court. the law
nullifies state statutes permitting
limited amounts of liquor to be
brought in for personal use.
The opinion was rendered in uro-
cee'1ings brought by the government
under the Reed amendment against
Dan Hill, who was charged with TAX
ing quart of alcoholic liquor into
West Virginia as the state prohibi-
tion laws permit. The lower court
dismissed the Indictment. holding that
the liquor had not been transported
''in interstate commerce." because il
was intended for Hills personal use
and not for trade
Justice McReynolds in a dissenting
opinion. concurred in by Justice
Clark. declared the Reed amendment
is not an interstate commerce regu-
latory measure. but it is direct in
termeddling with a states affairs. and
in his opinion goes beyond federal
power.

CHICAGO, January 13.--In the story
of the proceedings of the republic
can national committee sent out from

WAR PERIOD FOOD
RESTRAINTS LIT TED
Control of Trading Only in
Eggs, Pork and Dairy
Products Hereafter.
FREE REIGN IN PRICES NOW

Attention of the District Food Ad-
ministration will be, until further no.
tice, centered only upon the distribution
and sale of pork products. eggs. but
ter. butter substitutes. cheese and
sugar.
This is due to notice received this
morning from the United States Food
Administration containing :he in
formation that all manufacturers,
distributors and dealers requiring
licenses to operate are released from
restraints of war legislation. except
those dealing in the pork and dairy
products and sugar.
Was Wartime Measure.
Control of trading in these food
stuffs was made possible by presi-
Dental proclamation and was consid-
cred necessary as a wartime meas
ure. All food dealers, whether whole
sale or retail. doing business
amounting to more than 100000
yearly, were required to take out
licenses and subject themselves to the
various regulations OF the admins
tration.
This order was entirely unexpected
tion, and it will materially affect the
plan recently put into operation by
the administration to maintain fair
prices in Washington through the
medium of an official list of margins
of profit on the more important sta
pie food commodities. BY this recent
order the local administration is
practically without regulatory au-
thority except in the sale of the few
commodities mentioned.
A. special meeting of the inspection
force of the administration was call
ed this morning by Administrator
Wilson to formulate a definite plan OF

TRANSFER DECISION
EXPECTED. SHORTLY
Car Companies May Act Fa-

Four Hours.
LEAKAGE IS REPORTED

Free intercompany transfers at
practically all points recommended in
the report of John A. Beeler, traffic
expert employed by the Public
Utilities Commission, probably will
be an actuality within the next
twentyfour hours.
Consideration of the intercompany
transfer question occupied the time
of the Commissioners today, and it
was stated a decision probably will
be arrived at before evening as to the
points at which it was considered ad-
visableeto order such transfers.
Actual issuance of the transfers.
it was explained. probably would be
delayed for at least a few days. as
the transfers will have to be printed,
instructions issued to conductors, and
final arrangements made for the
operation of the system.
rares Not Received, Reported.
1t was learned today that the COM
mission is daily in receipt of many
letters conveying information tending
to show that the two street railway
companies are failing to receive all
fares collected on the various lines.
SO large has become the volume OF
these reports that it is by no means
impossible that the commission, of its
own volition. may institute an inyes-
tigation to determine to what extent
the two companies are suffering by
reason of these leaks.
Communications received by the
commission in practically all instances
contain car numbers, time of trip, con-
ductors' badge numbers and definite
assertions as to the number of pas
sengers on cars and the number OF
fares shown on the register.
Leakage Believed Serious.
ing the companies are being victim
lied every day. and specific instances
cited by writers of the letters have
convinced the Commissioners that the
leakage is a really serious factor, and
that its stoppage will in large measure
relieve the companies from the finan.
cial condition of which they complain
Reports conveyed in these letters
estimate leakage at all the way from
~ to 50 per cent, 1T is stated. AS this
is a matter in which the street-car.
riding public is as deeply interested
as are the street railway companies
Investigation by agents other thar
those employed by the two companies
according to the direct intimation to.
day. appears to be inevitable
AT the intercompany transfer hear
ing last week. officials of the two COM
panies were asked by members of the
commission il it were not possible
that considerable part of the de-
crease in revenues might be traced
to leakage due to the fact that the
companies do not receive all of the
fares collected. No direct reply was
made by officials of either company.
Conductors Make Den1aIs.
Conductors employed on different
lines of the two companies have en-
tered general denials that any leak
age exists. and declare it is grossly
unfair to the conductors even to inti-
mate that such a condition of affairs
exists.
