Millionaires Are Blind to Own

Salt Lake City, Oct. S.-Although
labor conditions in the state of Utah
are about as normal as anywhere in
the United States, Governor Bam-

talking to an eastern newspaper
CORRESPONDENT, that this state was
surrounded by an angry sea of un-

I'VE are facing the most serious
crisis in this country since the civil

there are no extensive strikes in
Utah, the general spirit of unrest
throughout the country reaches
here. 1t is like an epidemic. 1t
spreads like the influenza.
'The great trouble is that the peo-
pie who can and ought to take the
lead in solving our industrial prob
lens are the most unreasonable.
There are ten or twelve millionaires

Services of Federal and

Profiteers.

Washington, Oct S-The fight
against high prices on necessities Of
life will be carried with renewed
vigor to the country this month and

the National Association Of State
Attorneys General.
Mr.. Palmer or a representative of
his department expects to attend all
the gatherings and will leave Wash
ington Oct. q for tour of middle
western states. where the first meet
ings are to be called.
In each state, according to the
plans promulgated, the governor and
attorney general will call together
district attorneys, mayors and mem
bers of the local fair price organiza-
tions. Actual steps which can be
taken to curb profiteering locally
and in conjunction with the national
effort will be considered.
Attorney General Clifford Hilton
of Minnesota, chairman of the COM
mittee. during the session today ad-
vocated the passage by states of uni
form acts similar to that adopted in
Minnesota, which vests state agri-

The revelations Of Mr.. Otis in his
dealings with Lootey but bear out
the records in police court hearings
in the past, when Lootey has been
hailed into court for permitting his
employees to sell rotten products at
prices charged for first-class stuff,
and show that in order to cover up
his triflings with the city, state and
governmental regulations, he refuses
to give customers who produce GER
tain products bills of sale.
According to Mr. Otis, who is a
mail carrier. earning the starvation
wages that beneficient government
service, he sent one Of his small chill
flat to buy 10 pounds of sugar. The

famous fooa-price looters s1tt TIE
child that Looteys did not sell sugar
to anyone who could not show sales
bills showing that they were CUSTOM
ers Of the institution. Accordingly
the child went home and got some
of the bills.
Returning to the store. 10 pounds
of sugar were purchased. for which
$1.45 was paid. In other words,
while the government has fixed the
maximum price for sugar at retail
at II &c per pound, Mr.. Lootey was
and presumably is charging tho
dupes who visit his places at the rate
of l412 cents a pound. two cents
over the government price.
And to cover up his increase over
the government price Mr.. Iootey,
with the care which has character
lied his every action, whether in the
vestry of the church or in giving tes-
timony before the police court, re-
fuses to issue receipted sales bills
for sugar sold at the higher price.
And the reason for Mr.. Lootey's
action in the matter Of sugar is
plainly evident.
Through the onslaughts of the
Bulletin, backed by the unanimous
support of the consumers of small
