LIFTING OF BLOCKADE
MAKES FOOD PRICES IN
BERLIN FALL WITH CRASH

Berlin, Tuesday, July 15.-Prices on
all foodstuffs have fallen with u crash
in Berlin as a result of the lifting of
the blockade. They began to show weak
ness when it was rumored that the EN-
barge would be lifted, but the real drop
came only when Illicit dealers with
huge concealed stocks brought them out
in a virtual panic to unload before com
peting supplies entered Germany.
Tons of provisions are being shipped
in from occupied territories, while ev-
erywhere in the city great stores of
coffee, cocoa, butter, sausages and other
supplies have made their appearance.
Coffee prices fell from an average of
40 marks to below 20 yesterday, and
the product could easily be bought for
Is. Other food prices were CORE
spondingly cut.
Restaurants, however, still maintain
absurdly high prices and apparently in
tend to continue to do so as long as
possible.

u. s. STREET RAIL WAY
COMMISSION TOLD THAT
TROLLEY OWNERS GRAFT

Washington, July 16.-Declaring
street railway employees clearly We're
entitled to the wage increases granted
by the war labor board, Guy 7. Trip,
chairman of the Westinghouse Manu-
FEATURING Company, told the federal
street railway commission here today
that some basis of fares on cost OF
service plan should be worked out
Municipal ownership was believed by
Mr.. Trapp to be among the possibili
ties of the present situation.
Questioned by members of the com
mission, Mr.. Tripp said great fortunes
had been made by street railway cor
porations in the past. but not through
revenues from fares. A return was
never paid on a five-cent fare, he said,
but "hopes We're capitalized and hopes
We're sold" He added that there was
no question but that dishonesty in
capitalization, stock manipula-
tions and use of corporate interest in
the past were in a large measure re-
sponsible for the difficulties now being
experienced by the traction companies.

as the maximum alcohol content of bev.
erages in prohibition enforcement legis.
lation is clear, Wayne b. Wheeler, gen.
eral counsel of the Anti.Saloon League,
declared today before the senate ju.
dietary subcommittee in answering re.
cent statements of Samuel Untermyer,
counsel for brewers.
ITO allow the sale of 2:75 per cent
beer" said Mr.. Wheeler would keep
alive the liquor trade and defeat the
purposes of national prohibition"
Thirty.three prohibition states and 13
local option states, Mr.. Wheeler said,
have laws limiting alcohol in beverages.
He challenged Mr.. Untermyer to pro.
duce any court decisions denying con.
gress or state legislatures the right to
make definitions.
Mr. Wheeler told the committee that
prohibition advocates were not asking
that possession of liquors bought before
July l for personal use be prohibited.
He added. however, that they We're sug.
gesting amendments to limit the amount
of liquors which may be stored in pri.
Vate residences, so as to prevent homes
from becoming speakeasies.'
Another amendment advocated by pro.
hibtion leaders, Mr.. Wheeler said, is Il
provision for seizure of liquors in homes
where it is sold illcitly.
"BootleSgers will maintain their
homes as headquarters without such
legislation" said he.
Two other amendments were urged by
the witness. To prevent bootlegging, he
asked that the committee add a clause
making mere personal and physical pos
session of intoXicants-sucha as the pres.
ence of a bottle in an individuals pock-
et-unlawful.
Mr.. Wheeler also asked for sweeping
search-warrant powers, suggesting that
seizures be authorized without a warrant
or at least that warrants be issued with.
out requiring testimony in support
Otherwise, he said, liquor might be re-
moved before officers could act.
Senator Walsh of Montana and other
committee members opposed extension
of the bills search-warrant provisions
ana also insisted that the provisions
penalizing searches with malice and
without probable cause should remain.
The house judiciary committee, Mr..
Wheeler said, has agreed upon an am
endiment governing the sale of flavor
ing extracts which is satisfactory to all
interests. 1t permits wholesale distribu-
ton of these extracts. some of which
contain 40 to 60 per cent of alcohol,
but requires retailers to dilute bever.

BATTLESHIP TO MANEUVER
AGAIN AT PRONINCETONN

Henry b. Wilson, commander-in- chief
of the Atlantic fleet, will have the big
ships maneuver in the waters of Prov
incetown, Portland and Gardeners Bay
during most of the summer, according
to word received here, instead of using
Narragansett Bay as the battleship base.
Some years ago, when the late Rear
Admiral Robley ID. Evans commanded
the North Atlantic fleet, he abandoned
Provincetown as a base and sailed away
with all his ships one summer day be-
cause the town authorities would not
permit his men to play baseball on Sun
day. From that time until the United
States entered the war the battleships
came annually to Narraganset Bay.
