Paris.-The United States is the
only big power taking the league of

ed by the attitude of the other pow
ers regarding the rectification of
frontiers, as everywhere the strategic,
military and naval importance and
value of the terrain under discussion
is underlined as of initial Importance.
The principal object of a league of
nations is to obviate future wars. The
United States believes a league will
accomplish this purpose. But it is
evident the other powers are not so
optimistic regarding the functionment
of league, as every one everywhere
is trying to safeguard himself against
future aggression on the part of
neighbors and providing himself with
jumping-off places for offensive ac-
ton on his own part
The question of disposing of the

grains and thus responsible for boosting
the cost of living, were to be made to
the house today by Representative Nc
Culloeh, Ohio.
The grain corporation, through its
complete control of the market, has in
creased wheat price as high as thirty
cents a bushel above the s2.26 guaran-
teed price, and the transactions have
resulted in profit of nearly $24,000,-
600 to the government, he declared.
Mr.. Barnes in his letters 10 me, ap-
parently boasts of his profits as a good
business achievement, said McCuilOeh.
" He asks don I you thina it is good
business to make profit on your turn
overt and apparently is out to make
a record for himself
" His action is as far from what con
gress intended as anything could be.
We did not only intend that no profit
should be made but appropriated ST.
000,000,000 to resell the wheat TO the
people at lower prices, the government
to absorb the loss.
"The profit, Mr.. Barnes admits, is
in addition to all the expenses OF the
corporation, which are very large"
The house today will be asked to
order an investigation Of high sugar
prices, with submission of the resolu-
tion of Representative Tinkham, Massa-
chusetts, favorably reported from the
interstate commerce committee.
The object of the investigation,
which will be conducted by the federal
trade commission, will be to show there
is no justification for the present Pm
ees.

of any action growing out of the pres
ent agitation, according to officials.
The president, it was learned, hopes
to present definite recommcnua sions
within few days.
New laws may be asked from con
gress where existing Legislation Is con
sidercd inadequate.
The president, according TO his advis-
ers, feels that natural economic laws
are responsible for high prices in part
only. He believes, they say, that nat
ural conditions are aggravated by com,
minations profiteering, speculation and
boarding.
He is said to believe these artificial
conditions can be broken down by fed
eral action aud that their existence IS
responsible for much of the unrest and
dissatisfaction.
Repeal Of the wheat price guarantee
is scheduled to be discussed by the sen.
ate agricultural committee shortly, with
senators from agricultural states ap-
parently widely differing.
Chairman Gronna, North Dakota, fa.
vors repeal on the ground that the farm

the present happenings and the cute
