Washington, May 20-Patrick J.
Haltigan, regular reading clerk of the
house, read the presidents message to
congress today, practically as follows:
Gentlemen of the Congress: deep
ly regret my inability to be present at
the opening of the extraordinary ses-
sion of the congress. 1t still seems to
be my duty to take part in the coun-
sells of the peace conference and con-
tribute what l can to the solution of
the inndmerable questions to whose
settlement it has had to address itself !;
for they are questions which affect the
peace of the whole world and from
them, therefore, the United States can
not stand apart. / deemed it my duty
to call the congress together at this
time because it was not wise to post
pone longer the provisions which must
be made for the support of the govern
ment Many of the appropriations
which are absolutely necessary for the
maintenance of the government and
the fulfillment of it's varied obligations
for the fiscal year 1919-1920 have not
yet been made the end of the present
fiscal year is at hand and action upon
these appropriations can no longer be
prudently delayed. 1t is necessary,
therefore, that l should Immediately
call your attention to this critical
need. It is hardly necessary for me to
urge that it may receive your prompt
attention.
II shall take the liberty of address
ing you on my return on the subjects
which have most engrossed our atten
ton and the attention of the world
during these last anxious months

LONDON. Aug. 10. The American
Express Company virtually has COM
pleted arrangements through its tour
ist department for daily air passenger
and baggage service between London
and Paris. Our PLAN" said William
Gourlay, the company's manager for
the United Kingdom. "is to have IA
cilities available whereby a man or
woman can leave London in the morn
ing. fly to Paris and transact business
there, and return to London in time
for dinner, and vice versa. The ar
rnngements are in the final stages now
with the British and French Govern
ments. We expect that customs off,
cials will be posted at each end Of the
airplane route for the specific purpose
OF checking the baggage OF arriving
tourists.
The ship will be installed and oper-
ating during october. There will be two
grades of travel. both first class, one
in an airpiane carrying one or two pas
sengers and costing approximately 800
for flight one way and the other in
a large air bus carrying fifteen passenr
gers. for which the fare will be about
$50 a person.
we snail start with the air bus leav-
Ing three times week and the air
planes daily.
Automobiles will convey passengers
from their hotels to and from the air
dromes, located respectively on the out
skirts OF London and Paris. The tickets
Issued will be after the style Of steam
ships with a clause by which the pas
sengers assume the risk for the Journey
Each passenger will be allowed to carry
a single piece of baggage, preferably
no larger than suitcase. Those going
by airbus can travel In their ordinary
civilian clothes, while passengers for
the faster going airplanes will be sup
piled with headmasks and goggles
The minimum time for the Journey
will be three hours, while four hours
viii be the maximum period in the air
The present time by train and boat be-
tween London and Paris is nine hours
and costs about $40"
Mr.. Gourlay was asked II other air
routes had been blocked out for regular
passenger services He replied: Yes
before the year Is out we shall have air
planes meeting all arriving passenger
ships at Liverpool and Southampton
Americans can see their heavy baggage
through the customs into train vans and
then board an Arplane for London, go
ing there long before dark and in ample
time to obtain hotel accommodations so
hard to get In the late afternoon

BINuHAMroN, n. Y, Aug. 13.-The
hrst Federal conviction in the fight TO
reduce the high cost Of living was OBJ
tsined in the United States Court here
to-day when Joseph Mossew, a retail
grocer, was found guilty of selling
sugar at 15 cents a pound retail. He
was fined $500. which was paid
In imposing sentence Judge George
w. Ray warned Mossew that a repeti-
ton OF the offence would result In a
long term in the penitentiary. The court
informed the prisoner that the prices of
certain commodities as fixed by law
must be obeyed and that the law would
be maintained
Patrons OF Mossew, whose store Is a
small one, complained some time ago
that he was charging exorbitant prices
for sugar. He wss warned against con-
unuing the offence, but did not change
prices. Thomas w. Dunn, sealer OF
weights notified the Deputy United
States Marshal. Secret service men at
once obtained evidence against Mossew
and this was presented to the Grand
Jury. An indictment was found and
Mossew quickly brought to trial. He
pleaded guilty to selling sugar at 15
cents pound, although the price as
fixed Is only IL cents.
