washington, Aug. 5.-Recommen.
datlons to President Wilson as to how
the government should proceed to
lover the cost of living are expected
to result from the second meeting to-
day OF cabinet members and other of.
hcials called into conference by At
torney General Palmer.
Director General of Railroads
Hines, Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Lefingwell and Chairman
Colver of the federal trade commits
sion, appointed a committee to pre-
sent suggestions to the conference
have been engaged in an exchange of
memoranda.
That President Wilson was taking
dep interest in the situation was in
dicated again, when without an
nouncement he called at the offices of
the federal trade commission and
held lengthy conference with Chair
man Colver and Commissioner Muir
dock. Neither of the two commission
members would discuss the subjects
brought up at the conference, but
admitted it dealt with the phases of
the living cost problem.
High prices and the resulting un-
rest expressed in strike threats by
hundreds of thousands of railroad
men occupied much of the time of the
Senate yesterday Senators from
wheat growing states asserted that
the government guaranteed price of
1925 a bushel was not responsible
for the high cost of bread, declaring
that the wheat was selling at termin-
ais at higher figures.
Chairman Gronna of the agricul-
ture committee announced that he
had called committee meeting to
discuss measures to r61uce the cost
of living. He said he had no remedy
to offer, but declared that increase
of wages and a decrease of working
hours was not panacea nor would
government ownership of control of
utilities solve the problem.
Mr.. Gronna denied that the COVER
nment's wheat price guaranty causes
undue price for bread. He was sup
ported by Senators Kellogg and Mel
son, Republicans, of Minnesota, who
said that wheat was being sold fa1
above the governments guaranty
1t the principal terminals.
The three Senators predicted that
his years wheat crop would be low
n than the governments estimates.
Senator Gronna saying it would be
$50, 100000 bushels and not 1885,
100000 as forecast by the department

HEADACHE THIS MORNING? IN
DU is THE MEDICINE TO RE-
LIEVE ALL KINDS OF SICK AND
NERVOUS HEADACHES.
HERE ARE some of the latest pro-
bibition events, culled here and there
by the Indu man:
State prohibition commissioner, W.
S. Callahan of West Virginia has for
hidden the sale of toilet water con-
tain high percentage of alcohol af-
ter prisoner in the police court at
Huntington told the magistrate that
he became intoxicated from drinking
toilet water containing 76 per cent
alcohol.
The police of Los Angeles have
been restrained by an order of the
Superior court from interfering with
the sale of beer containing 2.75 per
cent alcohol.
The subcommittee of the Senate
Judiciary Committee has shown SYM
pathy with the hardworking farmer
and workmen generally by striking
out the prohibition enforcement laws
provisions which would forbid a man
making cider and wine in his own
house for private consumption.
At Charleston, w. Va, a number
of women who had returned from a
steamboat outing were arrested and
when searched at police headquar-
tiers it was found that they had con-

ducts never made higher profits"
than they did under the food admin

war.
Senator Kirby, Democrat, of Ark
ansas, asked if the government cor
poration was now manipulating prices

he asked.
"Mr. Barnes has been criticized in
all the wheat states" Senator Gron-
ma answered, "for bearing down the
price. He has made every possible
effort to reduce prices"
Senator Nelson said the Canadian
Government had taken over the
wheat crop and "wiped out" Cana
dian exchanges.
Senator McCumber, Republican, of
North Dakota, said flour at $14 a
barrel was the cheapest thing on
earth today.
Flour Bill Low.
Compare your flour bill of Sh
cents day with your cigar bill"
Senator McCumber said, in asking
why there was so much clamOr about
-four prices and so little about those

other articles.
Senator Pittman, democrat, of Ne

prices could not be blamed on the
present administration He pointed
out that President Wilson had vetoed
a bill to fix wheat at $3.50 a bushel,
forcing the $2.26 guarantee.
Senator Sherman, Republican, IL.

Supporters Of Mr.. Galloway said to-
day that he and Mr.. Craven received
the first summons to the White House
July D, 1917, and that the president
sent for them again on July Of that
year. 1t is said that on both Of these
| occasions. they discussed the official
conduct Of MIR. McIlhcnny as chair
man OF the commission, and declared
he was arbitrary in his rulings. Feel
